Chapter 25: Secret Talks
Wei Lingdong's gaze withdrew from the secretary's back and looked at the chief, "Why are there people of other countries and other colors among the invaders?" Aren't the 200 people on Yuanwang No. 1 all from the Celestial Empire? ”
"It is impossible for such a project of the century to be carried out so smoothly, no matter how powerful our Celestial Empire is, it still has to borrow the strength of other countries, so we have to take into account many aspects." The chief replied with a smile, and then looked at Lu Fengyang. The latter understood, and continued,
"When we announced the plan, the chiefs received a statement from the United Nations, not only about the human rights of these 200 people, but also for some of the boarding places. So, in addition to the two hundred people we selected, there were actually nineteen foreigners secretly traveling with the ship. Moreover, the frozen embryos on board the spacecraft also contain human embryos from other countries. ”
Wei Lingdong felt that he was now able to keep up with the real rhythm, and he was no longer in the clouds and couldn't understand. At this time, the secretary who had gone out came back and signaled to the chief at the door.
Under the leadership of the secretary, the chief and Wei Lingdong went downstairs to a room on the first floor, where they sat down and the secretary brought tea.
"Lingdong, tell me something."
"I once watched an American movie called 'X-Men', which was about mutants and ordinary people fighting. Does our intruder have the same relationship with you as theirs? Wei Lingdong stared into his eyes, ready to activate the Reading World Pupil. At this moment, a button in front of the chief's tunic flashed white, and the secretary next to him took out his pistol almost in the blink of an eye, stood between the two, and pointed the muzzle at Wei Lingdong's forehead.
"It's okay, Xiao Chen, relax." The chief patted him on the back.
"Chief, the instrument has alarmed, he activated the ability, for your safety, I advise you to leave immediately." The secretary was highly nervous, and he raised his wrist to shout and call someone.
"No, don't worry, Lingdong wants to hurt me, I guess you can't stop it. He was just trying to make sure what I said was true. ”
Wei Lingdong felt very sensitive, in fact, his Reading World Pupil was already in a semi-active state, and he found that this man who held the supreme power of the Celestial Empire was really not simple. Although he didn't have any abnormal abilities, in such a situation, the muscles in his face were still very relaxed, and his heartbeat followed up at all, and there was no change at all! It can be seen that his ability to judge himself has reached the point of being convinced.
"Although my ability is not strong, in terms of invasion, it is between level 3 and level 4 now. But with these two things, no one in the entire Dragon City should be able to stop me at the moment. Wei Lingdong took out the spatial stabilizer and the Vientiane Spirit Ball and put them in the palm of his hand, "So, when I talk to you, Chief, you are absolutely safe." He switched to an honorific title, and the man deserved his respect.
"I believe in you!" The chief looked at the retired secretary and motioned for him to close the door.
"I didn't think about your question just now, you let me compare, after all, I watched that movie many years ago." He couldn't have imagined that Wei Lingdong would ask such a strange-looking and tricky question. After pondering for a moment, he spoke, "I think it's still a big difference. ”
"What's the difference?"
"I don't know which movies you watched, but first of all, it's a movie, and it has to construct dramatic conflicts. So ordinary people and mutants are described as two opposites. In fact, the reality is not that simple. The competition between us and the United States has always been one of you and me, and I have you, not you and me, because no one can completely eliminate the other. Do you think the invaders will wipe us out completely? Unrealistic, right? Speaking of this, he smiled, "I'll give you an example, even if there are ten seventh-level invaders appearing at the same time, we are not afraid." At most, they are squeezing our living space, it is impossible to eliminate us, those small countries are more dangerous, but the size of our Celestial Empire and the United States can explode with power that you can't imagine. ”
"So, rather than outright hostility, I prefer to believe in competition, which may be vicious competition at first, but after a period of confrontation between the two sides, it will still return to the track of healthy competition. The earth can't stand the toss, everyone is here to survive, not to destroy, right? ”
"You have a point."
"So, we secretly made a lot of preparations. Now that you're the leader of the Celestial Group, a lot of things can be decrypted to you. Let me tell you a little bit first. We have been bringing Chang Dong into contact with Muse Technology for more than a year, and the purpose is similar to the Super Soldier project in the United States. Although we are optimistic about the fate of humanity as a whole from the highest vantage point, from the perspective of the people of our Celestial Empire, the danger we face is very great. ”
"Muse Technology? Is it a well-known biotech company? ”
"Well, a high-tech biomedical company under Donglong Yinian. Lingdong, you will be responsible for these tasks in the future. Now that Pandora's box has been opened, we can only strive to walk in front of others on this road to have the right to speak, otherwise we can only follow others forever, and others will lead us to death, and we will be buried with us. ”
"Magic box? What do you mean? ”
"You go and ask Lu Fengyang about this, he is a professional, my level is limited, I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly. Ha ha. The chief threw his head back and laughed, as if laughing at himself.
"Okay." Wei Lingdong also smiled, he felt that the old man in front of him was really a strange person, and he could unconsciously let himself off guard.
"In addition, the National Security Bureau seems to be investigating Chang Dong, this matter should not have been told to you, after all, they are only suspicious, but you can pay attention to the communication between him and Donglong Yinian. If you are not at ease, then ask him not to contact that side again and hand over all the information to you. ”
"In the future, if you have something to do, you can contact my secretary directly, and he will tell me as soon as possible." He pressed on his wrist, "Xiao Chen, you come in." ”
The door was gently pushed open, and the secretary entered the room and stood still, "Chief, you say." ”
"In the future, Lingdong will contact you directly. Unless I have a major foreign affairs event or meeting, you should tell me about him as soon as possible, and you can exchange contact information later. ”
"Yes, Chief!"
"Alright, you go get busy first."
The secretary closed the door. The chief continued
"Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Wei Lingdong thought for a while and decided to tell the new information he had obtained, although it didn't help this old man to know, but the important thing was to make a statement, after all, people had put such an important position in their hands. If people don't pay and they are still alone, according to the current situation, it is difficult to say whether they will be able to save their lives in the future. As for the offensive and defensive effects that the Vientiane Spirit Ball and the Space Stabilizer can achieve with the Wanling Physique, he will still have reservations, after all, this is his means of saving his life, and he has now shown the ability to deal with level 7 invasions, which should be enough.
