Driven by this idea, Shen Chao quickly persuaded his companions to support the plan, and immediately after the meeting, he dispatched several teams of expedition members to carry out the mission, codenamed Soras. The first phase of the mission, which consisted of kidnapping and returning a group of journalists, took only 20 minutes to complete.

The efficiency of the expedition was as high as ever, and in such a short period of time, more than a dozen reporters from well-known news organizations were quietly kidnapped from the Earth on the main plane. These people come from several of the world's largest media empires, and are all well-known faces in journalism.

Without them, several major media outlets around the world would have to be topped with spare staff. Due to the fact that the abductees all had a certain reputation, after being deliberately imprisoned together, they quickly recognized each other and began to communicate with each other.

Of course, this was deliberately Shen Chao deliberately gave them time, otherwise these people would have immediately gathered to start an exclusive interview with him. Because there are many old journalists who have been famous for a long time and have seen the world. There was even a well-known war correspondent, so people quickly calmed down and began to discuss the status quo.

"Mr. Brad, I can't imagine meeting in such a situation after so many years...... a middle-aged woman who has been awake for a few minutes said to a middle-aged uncle who had just been thrown in, and there was a mixture of joy and embarrassment in her tone, obviously, these two people had a story before.

"Miss Baker? What about you? … Wait, so it seems that we should not be in any danger" This uncle is the only war correspondent among everyone, and it is not the first time that he has been captured, so he immediately became calm after seeing the others.

Because he has seen a lot of first-rate journalists here, no matter who kidnapped them, they would not simply kill them. After all, their value is mainly reflected in public recognition. Many of them are regulars on the evening news. has a face that is well known to hundreds of millions of viewers.

This hidden value makes their lives so valuable that even if the terrorists kidnap them, they will not be killed, not to mention, the whole incident looks like some kind of government action in his opinion.

Unless it's the government, who can kidnap so many well-known presenters from so many countries to the same place at once? This is the idea of the uncle of the war correspondent. Under his explanation, the woke news people quickly let go of their fears for their lives. They began to exchange information they had, trying to figure out where they were and who they were being held.

After all, they were sympathetic and quickly talked very speculatively, but in the conference room of Space Station Zero, a meeting that was also going on did not have such a calm atmosphere. Although Shen Chao decided the main action of the next step, the space-time expedition was still an organization that relied on collective wisdom and strength.

They must use a meeting to identify key points throughout the mission and control risks in the execution process. It is this collective wisdom and realistic attitude that allows them to successfully complete seemingly dangerous tasks again and again.

But now. In the midst of tremendous pressure and urgent deadlines for preparation, the discussion inevitably took on the smell of gunpowder. Not everyone agrees with the fact that Shen Chao's existence is now public, and even those who agree have great objections to how to make it public.

After all, this is a move that can decide the fate of everyone, and if the way and method of making it public is not as good as expected, they may fall into more pressure. For this reason, some people proposed to postpone the disclosure of their identities, and some people proposed to change the way of disclosure, and the atmosphere in the venue was very serious.

But as the center of all this pressure. Shen Chao didn't seem to be moved by all the pressures from the outside world. He listened carefully to everyone's opinions, adjusting the plan in his mind little by little. If you look closely, you will also notice a smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this important moment when a large number of other time-travelers were confirmed to exist, and a decision could determine the rest of his life, he could actually laugh! The participants also quickly discovered this problem and collectively turned their gaze to Shen Chao, wondering if he was crushed by the heavy pressure to survive.

"I'm fine. It's true. I'm just glad to have so many trusted companions, and I'm laughing at my own stupidity. Shen Chao spread his hands and explained, he looked very relaxed now, even more relaxed than before he found the other traversers. Seeing the bewildered expressions of the others, he began to further explain his reasons for relaxing.

"Think about it, everybody in this room. How much time did it take us to come together? A few days, a few months? Or a few years? How long did it take for the Space-Time Council to really get organized and gain influence? During this time, have we relaxed to strengthen our organization? ”

After hearing this question, everyone looked left and right at the people around them, and they all gave the answer in their hearts, that is, no. They did not relax, because everyone here was closely related to the fate of the expedition and interdependent.

In order to achieve their own life value, everyone chooses to contribute their value here to the greatest extent. This dependency is widespread throughout the current system of the Plane Council, which is why they have been able to develop so quickly.

It is not because of the strength of any one person, but because the strength of the entire organization is constantly getting stronger with the support of each individual. To this end, every step they take is solid, and all the results achieved are maximized.

Thinking of this, someone had already guessed what Shen Chao meant. Not all traversers have the opportunity and ability to build an organization like theirs. Because according to Shen Chao's speculation, most of the first batch of traversers spent the first three years receiving inheritance information.

The reason why Shen Chao only took two months was because when he received the inheritance information, he was already a little superman with a physique far beyond ordinary people. And for those of their kind who were still mortals when they first crossed over, they only had a little more than a year of free time until now.

These times are not enough time to build a huge organization comparable to his own space-time council, and without the support of such an organization, a single person is not invincible no matter how strong he is, and the man with glasses before is a case.

"If it weren't for this reason, a hundred, or even a thousand, of me together might not be the match for that person, but he died, and I lived well." Why? Because I've never fought alone......" is not absolutely true. But on this occasion, it can confirm everyone's intentions.

Strictly speaking, in the early days of crossing, Shen Chao was really fighting alone. It took more than half a year before I remembered to find a partner to take the plunge. Therefore, he can be regarded as a model of "wasting" a lot of time, but this point is ignored or selectively ignored by everyone.

After saying the words of encouragement, Shen Chao began to talk in detail about the plan he revised after brainstorming. At its core, it's very simple. That's fear, or deterrence. How did so many people of the same generation manage to keep the peace for more than a year after their return, knowing each other's existence?

Haven't they really met before this? And no one has ever thought of seizing other shards of time and space of the same kind? I'm afraid that's not the case. The reason why they didn't put it into practice was largely because of fear, fear that others would have stronger combat effectiveness or life-saving skills than themselves.

After all, all traversers are potential users of the space-time gate, and while it may not seem that all of them have figured out the magic of the space-time gate and the other aspects of their abilities, everyone has the potential to instantly travel to other planes and escape any pursuit.

This makes it extremely dangerous for everyone, after all. Any weak traverser who can escape is a great danger. He can become powerful in other planes and come back the way he came. Kill enemies who are much stronger than you.

This is not a small possibility, so every traveler, regardless of their appearance, origin, or life background, can be a potential source of deterrence against any other person, government, or even fellow travelers.

Taken together, they form a deterrent network that is even more powerful than any nuclear weapon or the so-called ultimate weapon. When the risk is high enough, attacking your own kind can become an act that outweighs the cost. Peace will then become a theme that all travelers are willing to abide by.

Although this situation may not last long, it may not even be established at all. But compared to doing nothing, this option is still more feasible and has a greater chance of giving them the initiative.

After identifying the theme of deterrence, they brought into the discussion process the expert advisory group that had been organized in the rear through videoconference, and because of the importance of the stakes, they invited a large number of experts in various fields to participate in the discussion of specific options. You'll also find that there is even a "magic advisor" among the hundreds of experts who participate in the video conference.

This magical advisor didn't know how to use magic, and he wasn't even a reliable advisor, because he was one of the same criminal gang that attacked Shen Chao on the main plane back then. After passing the test given by Shen Chao, his guilt was paid off, and when he later chose his fate, he decided to stay in the territory of the Space-Time Council.

As one of the few people who have lived and ventured on the magical plane for a long time. He was invited to participate in the discussion. When he learned of the existence of other traversers, he was actually overjoyed in his heart, although he knew that it was impossible and that it was unreasonable. But he still wanted to take revenge on Shen Chao. After all, that trip to the wizarding world cost him a friend.

In any case, they are to blame, and people's emotions will not be so easily calmed down. But after listening to the briefing and understanding the destructive power of the conflict between the traversers, he is caught in a conflict, and if the situation worsens, no one will benefit.

So he started to really think about how he could help. After all, although Shen Chao is not close to people, no matter how rewards and punishments are given, even people like him who have personal grudges with Shen Chao have to admit it. (To be continued......)

PS: First of all, thank you for the monthly pass of "pandaboy, openliu, Montenegro, cat Xiaosanhei, floating in the world, pandaboy" and the reward of "The Authority of the Sea, bdongbird", although the tips of both of them seem to be teasing me.

It should be noted here that today is more late mainly because I was too busy during the day, and I wasted a lot of time chatting with an ARMA3 modder at night. This is not expected tomorrow
