When the plasma life form said the rhetorical question in a flat tone, Zhao Huasheng felt a faint burning sensation appear on his exposed outer skin. Zhao Huasheng knows what this means, and Zhao Huasheng also knows what kind of risk it means to do so.

He relied on breaking with human civilization to gain the trust of plasma lifeforms, and now, he is trying to save human civilization from disaster. This is obviously very unreasonable in the eyes of plasma lifeforms. Zhao Huasheng knew that this would lower his rating in the heart of the plasma lifeform, reduce its trust in himself and increase its suspicion of himself. This may even cause confusion for later actions.

One of the most obvious and intuitive consequences is that if the plasma lifeform no longer trusts itself, it may risk killing itself at the risk of losing both.

Therefore, every word of Zhao Huasheng's words seemed extremely cautious. But Zhao Huasheng did not show this on the surface.

"I am certainly glad to see the catastrophe and destruction of human civilization." Zhao Huasheng said lightly, "But, not now." Because human civilization is still useful. If the solar civilization retaliates against human civilization in the near future, the construction of the lunar base will be put on hold, and my interests will be damaged. ”

Zhao Huasheng knew that this was a very, very reasonable explanation for plasma lifeforms, so Zhao Huasheng noticed that the faint burning sensation on his bare skin gradually subsided.

"I am not obligated to help you." The plasma lifeform said, "The success of the lunar base has nothing to do with me. My responsibility is simply to prevent you from coming up with a solution to the solar crisis. The regression I made before was just to improve your survival** and prevent you from doing stupid things. Don't think you have enough chips to trade conditions with me. There is no need to continue to talk about this matter, if you insist, or even use telling the truth as a bargaining chip to blackmail me, then I accept your blackmail, and I will pay the price of serious damage to my life information. Kill you. ”

The plasma life form is extremely resolute in this matter. In fact, this reaction of the plasma life form was originally expected by Zhao Huasheng, but Zhao Huasheng still wanted to try it. This is a very obvious thing, because if the solar civilization retaliates against human civilization, it locks the ladder of scientific and technological development of human civilization and cuts off the path of human civilization stepping into space...... Then even if Zhao Huasheng announced his ideas to human civilization, it would be useless. Because human civilization at that time was no longer capable of carrying out Zhao Huasheng's plan. This also means that Zhao Huasheng has lost its value, and the plasma life form will no longer have to monitor Zhao Huasheng, and it will also be free.

But Zhao Huasheng still did not give up this attempt. From Zhao Huasheng's point of view, Zhao Huasheng is to exterminate the sun civilization. Preserving human civilization. Then, if the solar civilization launches a retaliatory action against the earth, everything Zhao Huasheng has done will be completely meaningless, and human civilization will inevitably enter the abyss of destruction.

Zhao Huasheng said: "If I am not mistaken, it will take one to two years for the solar civilization to rebuild the entire reverse fusion layer, and the retaliation against human civilization must be carried out after the reconstruction of the reverse fusion layer." Whereas...... The time it takes to build a lunar base is about two to three years if human civilization goes all out. Other words...... The solar civilization does not need to completely abandon its revenge on human civilization. All I need. It's just that if I postpone this time, as long as human civilization helps me build a moon base, I won't care what kind of fate human civilization will suffer in the future. ”

"It's still not okay." The plasma lifeform replied. "The sooner the retaliation against human civilization, the better, and I will not interfere in any way. As for whether the moon base can be built before the retaliation starts, it's up to your luck. ”

Zhao Huasheng sighed and gave up his plan to continue convincing the plasma lifeform.

But Zhao Huasheng has not stopped thinking. Limited by the scientific and technological strength of human civilization at the moment, it is completely impossible to build a lunar base within one to two years, and once the solar civilization has rebuilt the reverse fusion layer. Retaliation against human civilization is useless, even if the moon base is built.

It seems like a dead end. A deadlock that is related to the future destiny of human civilization, life and death. And the person who put this noose around the neck of human civilization with his own hands. It's Frank, it's the comet impact program.

But Zhao Huasheng didn't have the energy, time, and heart to resent Frank at the moment. Because Zhao Huasheng knew that there was no point in doing that. Even if Frank is crushed at this moment, it will not help the current situation.

All Zhao Huasheng thinks about is to solve the problem. Other than that, Zhao Huasheng didn't care about any problems.

In this small courtyard specially prepared for Zhao Huasheng, Zhao Huasheng spent his first night here. The bed was big and soft, it was very comfortable to lie on it, the temperature was very comfortable, the air was fresh, the surroundings were quiet and safe, but Zhao Huasheng couldn't sleep anyway. In the dark night, Zhao Huasheng opened his calm and cold eyes, looked straight at the ceiling, and spent the night like this.

At this moment, in a conference room somewhere in the government building, the head of state presided over another meeting. At the meeting, the heads of various departments reported on the progress of preparations for retaliation against the solar civilization, such as the development of new technologies for mass production and civilian use of radiation, power and energy use in extreme environments. Some of these areas have progressed, some have not, but in any case, the Führer has not been able to arouse much interest in them.

Because it's a negative response. Negative coping means that death can be postponed temporarily, but death cannot be avoided. Dying after a decade or fifty years of struggling to survive is also not a good end for human civilization.

This was followed by a report on the progress of the work of the underground shelter. The engineering department has completed the initial exploration and site selection of the underground shelter, and the relevant equipment has already begun to be mobilized there, but the Führer is skeptical that the underground shelter will be built in just one to two years.

Underground shelters are a medium-level response. If this plan is successful, human civilization can still retain the seeds of civilization. But the Führer did not want to carry out this plan until it was absolutely necessary, just as the Führer was very reluctant to carry out the City of Life project. Because it means the death of billions of human beings.

When this part of the debriefing was over, the Führer looked with hope to the other part of the seats. The most outstanding war experts, psychological warfare experts, physicists, and others in all human civilization are concentrated there. The Führer hoped that these people would find a way to deal with the means of retaliation of the solar civilization. But the briefings of these people also disappointed the Führer.

One scientist said: "Sorry, Führer, we have not found any way to deal with the retaliatory means of the solar civilization. With our current scientific and technological strength, we cannot form any effective long-term deterrence against the solar civilization, and we have no way to adopt scientific and technological means to deal with the attack of the solar civilization. ”

The Führer's gaze dimmed. After the scientist said these words, the room fell silent.

After a dead silence that lasted for several minutes, the scientist continued: "Our human civilization is facing a dead end. Perhaps, our ultimate hope is in Zhao Huasheng, although this hope seems so ethereal and unreliable anyway, but other than that, there is nothing we can do. We can only hope to help Zhao Huasheng build the moon base before the solar civilization launches a retaliatory measure against us, and then have enough time to implement Zhao Huasheng's method and preemptively destroy the solar civilization to avoid the solar civilization's attack on us. ”

The failure of the comet impact program was declared the last effort of human civilization to be aborted. The failure of the plan to reshape the world announced the failure of human civilization's attempt to exchange Zhao Huasheng's cooperation at a relatively small cost. The bankruptcy of these two plans has really pushed human civilization to a dead end. There is no other way for human civilization than to choose to compromise and cooperate with Zhao Huasheng.

Before the meeting, the head of state had already announced that he and Zhao Huasheng had finally reached an agreement and agreed to Zhao Huasheng's conditions. The incident did not cause much backlash and opposition from the participants. Because people know that there is still a glimmer of life in agreeing to Zhao Huasheng's conditions, if they don't agree, they can only wait to be killed.

The Führer did not speak out about the results of his own thinking. Again, the reason is secrecy. Because the Führer could not be sure if there was a plasma life in the conference room at this moment, eavesdropping on the meeting of the highest level of human civilization.

"Okay." The Führer sighed, "We can only pin our hopes on Zhao Huasheng." ”

Having said that, the Führer's mind had drifted somewhere else.

The Führer said silently in his heart: "Watson, I hope you can work a miracle again...... I know you've carried too much, you're in a difficult situation, but there's no other way for me to do it...... Hopefully, you can stop the Sun Civilization from taking revenge on human civilization. ”

At this time, Zhao Huasheng sat up from the comfortable bed.

"I'll go see Li Wei, you can promise this, right?"

Under the early morning sun, Zhao Huasheng's eyes were unusually bright. (To be continued)
