Base No. 105, a temporary command post at the front.

General Lei Zhen sat in his seat expressionlessly. In front of him, a huge screen clearly showed the situation in the central square. Through this screen, he can not only observe the location, density, number of people, movements, etc., but also the location of the soldiers facing him. This helped him to make the most targeted command and ensure that the impact of the incident was kept to a minimum.

But General Lei Zhen knew very well in his heart that in such a large-scale conflict, it was impossible not to be injured and bloodless. Even Shen Qingyuan, the head of state, specially approved the death quota to General Lei Zhen, as long as the final death toll did not exceed five, it was acceptable.

As the top military official, Lei Zhen was reluctant to direct his soldiers to use violence against those who should be protected by the military. But perhaps it is the way of thinking and acting of soldiers that makes Lei Zhen more aware than anyone else that in order to seek more long-term interests, sometimes it is inevitable to damage existing interests. It is precisely because of this that he became a staunch supporter of Shen Qingyuan, and it is precisely because of this that he finally decided to carry out this mission in person.

Time passed bit by bit, and the final moment had arrived, but Shen Qingyuan's order did not arrive as promised. This surprised Lei Zhen a little, but he could only continue to wait.

In the central square, people's emotions are even more excited.

"We're not going to move from here! We are human beings, and we are born with the right to live and live! No one can take our rights away! ”

"Protest! Shen Qingyuan stepped down! Step! ”

"The poor of all civilization should unite against these tyrannies! Is it true that there should be a distinction between people, so that the rich can live in a first-class city with a good environment, and we can only go to a fifth-class city? ”

"It's not fair, it's not fair!"

Countless media reporters flocked to release this scene to every corner of civilization as quickly as possible. At this moment, even the matter of the Phoenix Star explosion could not distract people's attention.

This is also what makes General Lei Zhen feel a little confused. In the past, the response of the government to mass incidents may have varied, but the only thing they have in common is that they will strictly control public opinion and block information in an effort to keep the situation to a minimum. But this time, Shen Qingyuan showed some signs of doing the opposite. Not only did he not prohibit the media from reporting on these matters, but he did not even monitor the communications network at Base 105.

Although he didn't understand Shen Qingyuan's intentions, General Lei Zhen only gave up his plan to continue thinking about it for a moment. His identity is the head of the military, and he is directly under the command of the head of civilization, as long as he understands these two points, it is enough.

Blue Star, Führer's Office.

Shen Qingyuan knew that the original time had arrived, but he did not plan to issue an order to forcibly relocate now.

"I'm going to talk to Wang Hao."

A secretary took the order, and a moment later, the information was ready. However, because the distance is too far and the communication delay is too serious - even if the information experts specially laid a faster-than-light communication link for this call, the one-way communication delay between the two sides is as high as an hour - because the two sides cannot communicate in real time. Shen Qingyuan could only send his words over at one time to save time.

"Hello Wang Hao, you should already know that a super explosion is about to happen on the Phoenix Star. Unfortunately, I can't save your life. Of course, you are a hero of our human civilization and deserve the respect of all, and I also respect your great personality, but this call, I am not just expressing my reverence to you, but there is another thing.

In order to ensure that we can achieve breakthroughs in basic science as quickly as possible, I have decided to tilt 40 percent of the resources within the civilization towards scientific research. But the move met with serious opposition. I will give you a detailed description of the details in the form of an attachment.

You should be aware of the enormous prestige you have within civilization, especially the tragic hero who has made great contributions to humanity and has to die in natural disasters, and your influence may be beyond your own imagination. I hope that before you die, you will use your influence to convince the people to accept the new economic reform plan. This avoids many bloodsheds and reduces many losses.

I know you've done a lot for civilization, and it's unfair to ask you to give your last bit of strength at this last minute, but I think you'll accept it. After all, it's our common desire to get civilization through this catastrophe, isn't it? ”

After a period of delay, this information came to the Dragon God spaceship and presented it to Wang Hao through a virtual screen.

The head of state in the picture is still majestic and confident, but for some reason, Wang Hao always feels that the head of state he saw this time has some fatigue and powerlessness that he has not noticed before.

"Maybe that's my delusion." Wang Hao thought so.

Wang Hao did already know about the imminent outbreak of the Phoenix Star, and also knew that he could not be rescued, and he would definitely die in this disaster. But unexpectedly, Wang Hao did not feel the slightest fear because of this, but felt a kind of relaxation from the depths of his heart.

"Thank God for helping me make a choice, so that I don't have to worry about ending my life early, or live with this broken body. If I could give one last bit of strength to our civilization before I die, I'd be glad to do it. ”

"Führer, it is true, as you say, that it is our common desire to get civilization through this catastrophe. For this wish, I can give everything I have. I will comply with your request and record a video to complete the task you have given me. I only hope that the Führer will properly collect my bones, and if we can return to the solar system one day, I will be buried on Earth. Führer, goodbye. ”

Wang Hao, who appeared in front of Shen Qingyuan, has long since lost his former appearance. He sat frail in a wheelchair, his face was dry and sallow, his expression haggard, and his body looked unusually thin under the thick blanket. But there seemed to be some kind of magical brilliance in his eyes, which made him look radiant, as if a layer of light was shrouded in his body.

Although he knew that Wang Hao could no longer see his figure, Shen Qingyuan still stood up, walked out from behind the desk, and bowed deeply to Wang Hao in the picture.

"You are a real hero. Rest assured, your wish will come true. ”

After the communication delay, a recorded video was sent to Shen Qingyuan. It was also at this moment that the super explosion of the Phoenix Star came as promised.

Almost instantly, the brightness of the Phoenix Star in the real-time monitoring screen increased by at least half, and in the midst of the multiple extinction images, a cloud of smoke also quietly rose from the edge of the Phoenix Star. Intense gamma rays accompanied by visible light rushed in, destroying everything in its path, and streams of charged particles roared out like a tsunami, sweeping across galaxies.

There is a time lag between these two as the two do not pass at the same speed. Gamma rays and visible light travel at the speed of light, while stellar winds travel at speeds of up to thousands of kilometers per second. This means that the state of emergency will remain in place for some time.

Shen Qingyuan sighed and ordered, "Let's publish this video." ”

At this moment, Wang Hao's figure appeared on almost all media channels. In the picture, Wang Hao is still sitting in a wheelchair, and his bare forearm is still full of shocking ulcers, but he is smiling, and that smile is full of serenity and peace.

There were also several huge open-air screens on the central square, and Wang Hao's figure also appeared in front of the excited crowd at the same time. Almost the moment Wang Hao appeared, the huge noise subsided. When Wang Hao began to speak, the noise disappeared completely.

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Hao. It is my pleasure to announce a piece of good news to you. The results of the human experiments that I conducted myself have been extremely important, and my colleagues have told me that they have a good chance of using the data from this experiment to develop a blocking drug that will not reverse the genetic variant, but will block the effect of the genetic variant on the next generation. If there are no accidents, the threat of infant idiocy can be lifted for the time being. ”

People looked at each other, not knowing what to look at the news.

"Originally, I was going to go back to the Phoenix system before the radiation killed me, but unfortunately, my colleagues told me that there was a super outbreak in Phoenix and that the government didn't have the ability to rescue me. It also means that my life will only last for a few hours, and in those few hours, I want to tell you something. ”

Wang Hao said calmly, as if he was telling about something completely unrelated to him. And after learning the news that Wang Hao was going to die, people were finally a little moved.

"Obviously, the universe is not always full of good intentions for us, and there are occasional tribulations. The survival of our civilization does not matter to the universe, but as a member of civilization, this civilization is our everything. I think each and every one of us has an obligation to contribute to its survival and continuity. If each of us is obsessed with what we have, where will the future of civilization go? ”

"I'm going to die in a few hours, but I still hope my bones will be buried on Earth."

"I think it's time for all of us to come together and get through this."
