Chapter 16: The Stargate

Qi Xiao's heart was beating violently, and the other three boys around him were obviously not much stronger than him.

The originally noisy conference room fell into a mysterious silence for a while.

"Hey, hey, boys, Alina is your companion, you can see enough later, let's get down to business first." Vita Esmeraldar suddenly broke the silence and said with a smile.

In fact, appearing at this meeting with Alina was one of her intentions.

"First of all, let's clarify your mission, you will be a member of the Defenders Special Forces of the United Nations peacekeeping force, responsible for dealing with the alien invasion." Vita Esmeradal said patiently.

It can be seen that although she still maintains the charm of her youth as the most beautiful UN Secretary-General in history, the anxiety in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows cannot be hidden from the eyes of those present.

"Allow me to give you a brief introduction to the Stargate incident, although you may already know a lot more than I have said."

"Back at the end of the last century, the specific time was 1994. This extraterrestrial teleportation device between Yemen and Somalia has already been discovered on Earth, and we have given it many nicknames. "The Ferris wheel, the hoop, the ring of life, Sauron's ring...... At the time, no one saw it as a gateway from one world to another. Humans don't see it as a threat, they just see it as a natural thing that humans can't explain yet. Or a relic of human activity in ancient times. ”

But in 2010, Stargate began to be violently active, and on November 14, 2010, Stargate released a large number of alien creatures for the first time, showing humans the real existence of wormholes for the first time. So, we now call it 'Stargate' or 'Hell's Gate'. ”

"In order to confront it, we have established the most powerful combined fleet in human history, which is now the Combined Fleet in the Gulf of Aden, which is dominated by the US Fifth Fleet."

"We used enough warships to sweep across the continent, and at a terrible cost, we finally eliminated these alien visitors. We generally refer to this point in time as the 'First Stargate War'. ”

"At that time, the Security Council blocked the news from the outside world, created the so-called 'Somali pirates' to cover up the truth, and completely blocked the stargate, and at the same time sent scientists from various countries to study the stargate."

"Unfortunately, until now, we didn't know how the door was connected or what was behind it."

"In 2015, the United Nations Security Council intervened in this war, and we found the 'observer' hidden behind the 'stargate', and at the same time started the second stargate war."

Vita Esmeraldar glanced at Qi Xiao meaningfully: "Although the alien creatures that emerged in the Second Stargate War are more powerful and cruel, thanks to the heroes who fought bravely in the war, humanity won a great victory in the Second Stargate War. I also came to the United Nations that year. ”

"Now, thirty years later, ......"

"In the past thirty years, the research on the stargate has not stopped, we have obtained a lot of knowledge and clues, in order to completely block the stargate, many people have sacrificed for this, and the victory of the second stargate war has almost been squandered."

"According to the reaction of the stargate, the time of the alien monsters it teleports will become more and more frequent and powerful, so to speak, the human race has now been forced into a corner. So...... We must unite and face this war together. ”

"Your Excellency, can you be clear?" Rhaegar Norris asked.

"Since it's called the Star Gate, it means that this door can be opened on both sides, and through our research, if it is opened on our side, it needs something that can only be found on the other side."

"The Luna's Stone." The magician from England suddenly interjected.

The Secretary-General glanced at Ian Yugis and nodded, "Yes, Luna Stone. ”

"In the Second Stargate War, we obtained a total of five Luna Stones, which are all the Luna Stones that humans have obtained so far. It is said that they are soaked in the five powers of earth, shadow, order, magic and life to open the portal. ”

"These five precious crystals are kept in this building, and now you know why there is a compound armor here, and the monsters have been attacking here for the past few days?"

"According to the final resolution of the Third Planetary Defense Council in 2015, the custody of these five crystals belongs to the United Nations, but the right to use them is a permanent member of the Security Council, that is, your motherland, and each country has the right to use a Luna Stone."

But unfortunately, in 2016, less than a month after the newly elected president of the United States took over the White House, he authorized the U.S. Department of Defense and NASA to use the first Luna Stone in the name of a joint scientific expedition. The result is...... Annihilated. ”

"The same thing happens in 2024 and 2032, where each newly elected president sees the conquest of alien planets as a shortcut to immortal feats, and of course, they all fail."

"But don't they have the Luna Stone anymore?" Jacques Dorian asked suddenly.

"Yes, so the second time they used the British Luna Stone, and the third time, it belonged to your country."

"Uh......" Jacques' cheek twitched.

"If they can use this power prudently, it may not be a bad thing, but every time the scientific expedition personnel enter the stargate, the stargate's reaction will become more and more violent, and they don't expect what the consequences of this unscrupulous will be."

"The result is that humanity has no choice but to give it a go." Qi Xiao answered on the side.

"That's right, the creatures that the stargate can teleport from are getting stronger and stronger, and they have seriously threatened the stability and development of human civilization, and after years of consultation by the Planetary Defense Council, we finally decided to launch that unprecedented expedition in human history at the beginning of this year."

"But no one expected that in the Third Stargate War, we gathered the best soldiers, scientists, and adventurers in the world to completely end this war and bring the world back to life, but we still lost so badly."

"This is no longer something that can be solved by a war, the enemy is too strong for human civilization to solve on its own. That's why we need transcendentals. ”

The female secretary general looked at the five people present, and each of them read something unusual in her gaze.

"So...... You need us to lead an army," Rhaegar Norris leaned back in his chair, his chin raised, and a look of confidence on his face, "Based on the experience of the Third Stargate War, it seems that a simple adventure party does not work. ”

"Yes," the female secretary general immediately had a keen sense of what Rhaegar was about to say, "but the specific issue of the command of each ** team will be handed over to the heads of state of the Security Council to hold a meeting to discuss together." ”

"It's definitely not on the agenda today." The female secretary general said categorically.

Rhaeggar's eyes were slightly confused, and he was silent. He had been instructed before the meeting to put pressure on other transcendents and the United Nations on the issue of command, but he did not expect to receive such a strong resistance one after another.

"In fact, although the United Nations was given a lot of new powers after the war, the specific military command is definitely not in our consideration." After Vita Esmeraldar explicitly rejected Rhaeggar, he threw out a good-natured and reconciled olive branch, saying that he could not do anything.

"During the outbreak of this war, you will travel back and forth between the two worlds, and everything you will experience will be unimaginable to us mortals, and the United Nations will lift the restrictions on the transcendent and officially recognize the existence of the transcendent."

"At the same time, we will grant you absolute diplomatic immunity, unconditional immunity from jurisdiction, suit and execution; In addition, you will have all the powers of the United Nations Special Envoy for Foreign Affairs. In addition......"

The Secretary-General spoke endlessly about the privileges that the five men were about to have, and his eyes were genuine.

Qi Xiao gradually felt uncomfortable, as if he felt that he was already ashamed just by hearing this.

After all, I haven't done anything......

The Secretary-General put down the manuscript, raised his head and said seriously: "I know that what we can do is perhaps less than one ten-thousandth of what you have contributed to humanity. But for now, the United Nations can only do so much for you. She finally said something that Qi Xiao sounded more familiar.

Listening to the soft tone and earnest words of the female secretary general, Rhaegar involuntarily restrained her body and nodded solemnly.

"It is clear to each of you that since the founding of the United Nations for a hundred years, the power of the Secretary-General of the United Nations has never been greater than that of any Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations, and that is all I can fight for you." Vita Esmeraldar made a final remark with a little humor.

When the ambassadors of the five major countries of the United Nations on one side heard this, they couldn't help but laugh, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while, and the air was filled with joy. "Okay, do you have any more questions?" The female secretary general said this question, but she had already packed up the folder in her hand, obviously to take her bag and leave after the cut-scene greetings.

"I have a question," Jacques said first, raising his right hand, out of which he had a pencil.

"Please."

"So are we employees of the United Nations? Or is it considered a member of the peacekeeping force? ”

"Of course." The female secretary general realized that the pencil in Jacques's hand was actually the one she had been holding.

"Then I have a question, that is, how to solve our housing problem and remuneration?"

"Housing problems?" The female secretary general did not expect that the attack of the transcendents would start from such an angle, and she couldn't help but fall into silence for a while.

"We have a solution here to solve the housing problem of non-local employees, and there is a plan called the 'Housing Project'." Rhaegar watched Jacques keep agitating himself with his eyes, and couldn't help but say something in passing.

On the surface, it seems to be introducing the policy of his country, but in essence, he is a general of the army to the female secretary general.

"Housing prices in New York are very expensive, and in our country, houses with this kind of scheme are called affordable housing." The British also seemed to be very keen on communication, and said with a smile.

"Our national policies are relatively diversified, low-rent housing, price-restricted housing, public rental housing, affordable housing, everything." On the one hand, Qi Xiao came with great interest, as if he wanted to popularize the affairs of the house in front of this group of politicians who were in a hurry.

"I know that you all have a very special purpose for housing, and it is difficult for the United Nations to deal with this to everyone's satisfaction, can the sending country solve it on its own?" The female Secretary-General looked at the UN ambassadors next to her.

"We've solved it," said China's ambassador, sitting firmly.

"The Celestial Empire government bought Qi Xiao a residence in New York, are we the same?" Jacques asked. "Although my training ground has a lot of requirements, it is barely the same as Qi Xiao's, and the area is enough."

The French diplomat's face twitched inadvertently: "We will seriously consider your opinion." ”
