Chapter 56 Emergency Meetings
Boom!
"What the hell is going on here?!"
Looking at the real-time footage transmitted from the satellite in front of him, the current governor of California, Swarambo, slammed his big fist on the solid wood table in front of him, and the huge force of the angry blow made the pure steel water cup in front of him bounce.
Facing the angry and terrifying eyes of the governor in front of him, whose muscles were at least several times more developed than his own, as if he were about to tear himself apart, the current San Francisco police chief felt that the cold sweat on his already hairless head was about to turn into a fountain
"The police are mobilizing forces to intercept them, but because there are not enough heavy weapons, they are not very effective at the moment, and these giant pythons that don't know if they are mutated or ancient creatures have very strong defense, and it will take some time to prepare to block these monsters."
"Don't make excuses to me!"
The governor, who was already in his fifties, interrupted him loudly.
Pointing to the terrifying picture on the screen where the giant python swarm had broken through the rudimentary defense line formed by the dozen or so police cars that had arrived temporarily, and began to wreak havoc on the outskirts of the city, the governor's saliva was about to spray on the police chief's face!
"The people are bleeding, the whole city is facing the threat of terror, and you are telling me that there is a problem now?!"
Now the police chief is sweating more...
But it was clear that this roar would not relieve the anger in the governor's heart.
There was no way he couldn't help but be angry, knowing that this was his last governor's term, and he was about to retire!
I thought that on my fiftieth birthday two years later, I would be able to draw a happy ending to my life of continuous struggle, but I didn't expect this to happen!
Even if he didn't bow down afterwards, this kind of large-scale death and injury and panic would definitely become a stain on his life!
"At present, the preliminary statistics of the number of victims have reached 127, and even include 11 police officers and several influential tycoons, and if this continues, the situation will be completely uncontrollable."
Thinking of the data that had just been reported, Governor Schwallambo felt his brain beating.
"Judging from the data analyzed by which experts, these giant snakes suspected of being Titan Pythons are not at all something that ordinary police officers can stop, so now they can only do it"
Half-pondered, the governor sighed, and finally turned his head to look at an officer who had been standing quietly on the sidelines, and judging by his rank, it was clear that he was a colonel.
"Colonel Greenland, now we need the help of the military!"
Obviously, at present, most of the police who only have light weapons can not be counted on at all for the time being, and when they mobilize the mothballed heavy weapons, it is estimated that the whole of San Francisco will already be covered with corpses!
Now, only the regular American army, relying on the one regiment stationed nearby, could respond.
However, the governor is actually very entangled in this.
Although each state has a great deal of authority to act independently because the United States is a state federal form of government, in fact, this kind of direct transfer of troops beyond the White House is still very taboo.
After all, the military is a top-down independent and complete system, and the governor nominally has the right to dictate, but if he does so, he will undoubtedly offend those military high-ranking officials, and even cause a backlash from the local garrison itself.
If possible, he would prefer to rely on the police to solve the disaster.
However, turning his head to look at the monsters in the surveillance footage that broke through the glass wall like a tank and began to enter the building to kill wildly, and then thought about the terrifying consequences of these giant beasts not being stopped in time and then killing into the bustling neighborhood, he finally made up his mind.
"It's obviously too late to wait for news from the White House, no matter what, they can't be allowed to cause more casualties and destruction!"
With this conviction, the governor took a deep breath and picked up the phone beside him.
"Transfer me to New York, Major General Brannett's personal call!"
Although he had by his side the current supreme commander of the garrison, a resident colonel, in order to obtain the legal process, he also needed to contact another person, that is, Major General Brannett, whom he had not met a few times and who had been in New York almost all the time, the supreme commander of the army.
After a simple phone call, the other party did not intend to cooperate at first, because it was obviously a big risk.
At this time, the governor who made up his mind showed his true character as a tough guy, and directly forwarded the video with a tough attitude, and it was obvious that when he really saw the giant python raging, the other party finally compromised.
With the permission of the military, knowing that the matter was urgent, the colonel, who had been expressionless, did not have any nonsense, and after taking the emergency order signed by the governor, he turned around and went to mobilize the army.
And at this time, the governor rubbed his temples and finally breathed a sigh of relief, he had done everything he could, and the rest could only depend on the arrangement of fate.
After relaxing a little, some other thoughts began to pop up in his mind
"The appearance of these monsters is definitely not accidental!"
As the supreme governor of a state, the governor is very aware that there have been many strange creatures or events in various places since the meteorite incident occurred more than half a year ago, especially after visiting the specially established research base, he is not too surprised by the appearance of this giant python.
After all, compared to those terrifying monsters like monsters in mythical stories, this kind of large python is actually not a big deal, and even among the bodyguards around him now, there are a few guys who have mutated to gain special abilities.
It's just that, in order to prevent public panic, countries have been tacitly suppressing the spread of these things, resulting in ordinary people not knowing the real situation.
It is precisely for this reason that although sporadic mutated creatures have always hurt people, they were quickly extinguished under the full operation of the government, and the impact was quickly suppressed and dissipated under information control.
However, when such a large number of mutant creatures gather together to storm the city, the nature of the matter is completely different.
As one of the most prosperous cities in the United States, countless pairs of eyes have witnessed this commotion that cannot be hidden, and the whole world will be a sensation about it!
He and his California are really famous, maybe they can still be famous in the history of the whole world, of course, it will not be the good image he hopes for, "According to research, the intelligence of these mutated creatures has obviously improved, and they know how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, and under normal circumstances, they will never conflict with humans for no reason, and in this matter, there is definitely something that we don't know about happening"
Especially when I think of sci-fi films like "The Disaster of the Python" and "The Rise of the Ape-Man", the governor always has the feeling that he is carrying the black pot for others, "Hmph! Whoever you are, don't let me get caught."
Thinking of this, the governor snorted coldly in his heart, if he wants to solve this kind of thing, now he undoubtedly needs an "expert".
Therefore, he turned his head directly to look at an unusually ordinary middle-aged man who had been quietly staying in the corner diagonally opposite.
"I thought, I need to understand the reason for all this! What is the reason for this horrible situation, who, and why is it that I am going to be on my desk before this catastrophe is over! ”
"I think all this will soon be in front of your eyes..."
Slightly indebted, the man with broken brown hair, about forty or fifty years old, replied calmly, the eerie calm, as if completely unaffected by the picture unfolding next to him.
No, it's not so much unaffected, it's more like not caring about any life at all.
His gaze hidden in the shadows revealed only coldness and ruthlessness, as if it was not a normal human there, but a cold, poisonous snake with the appearance of a human...
However, the governor didn't care, because he knew exactly what this guy was doing.
If Shauna, who had just received a call at this time, saw this man, she would also feel very familiar, because this guy was her immediate boss - the head of FBI intelligence in California!
There are three large intelligence agencies in the United States, and there are at least sixteen small intelligence agencies, not counting the hidden ones that are not well known.
But in the United States, the real most powerful is still the FBI, which is responsible for internal control.
Moreover, because of the department's responsibilities, it is deeply connected to the state governments, so it is meaningless to end up here.
Still, that's enough, and the governor is confident he'll get a satisfactory answer.
Not because of anything else, but simply because the positions of the five deputy directors in California have changed at least ten in the past fifteen years, but the only director has never changed
Watching as the intelligence chief also turned away, he leaned back into the leather backrest of the wide chair as he faced the empty office, feeling an irrepressible exhaustion. "It's so old."
Turning his head and looking at the satellite display, a gunship was accidentally hit by a giant python hovering over a tall building, smashing into the ground and turning into a huge firework, he finally sighed helplessly.
"Hopefully, it's still too late"
