Chapter 795: Latent
If it is used to deal with mutated living corpses, it is also appropriate. But the problem is that I and the people around me are not dead, we are still alive and normal human beings who have not been infected!
Suddenly, the mysterious man who couldn't see his face clearly understood the painstaking efforts of the government to arrange it so badly.
They wanted to completely isolate the area outside the walls. Forever a wasteland with no people. In order to ensure the absolute interests within the safety line.
The body remains of the dead soldiers, scattered everywhere. Sensing the damage to the body, the sticky cells quickly dissolve the solidified limb into a clump of crystalline liquid. They shook and struggled desperately. But it is impossible to put the missing pieces back together. It can only be swallowed by the greedy swallowing of the dry sand, and it can irresistibly become an absorber that moistens the soil.
Regenerators, despite their sticky qualities. However, the criterion of the resurrection must be based on its own energy. The "offspring" does not have the strong vitality of the "mother". Ordinary shootings may not be fatal to them. However, the complete shattering of their bodies under the powerful explosion was enough to send them to a terrible death and be taken into the darkness of the earth forever.
The mysterious man who couldn't see his face clearly stood in front of the crater created by the explosion. Silently staring at the cold, thick walls in the distance. The hands have long been so clenched that they can no longer find the slightest gap.
The wind is blowing.
It rose up from the ground, frantically absorbing something that could be enveloped. Like a greedy beast, gnawing on all the prey around it. Everywhere I passed, except for the dead silence and heavy sand and stones, there was no longer any existence that dared to resist.
A small yellowish grass, from the crack in the dry stone, is extremely difficult to get out. Standing proudly with his weak body. No matter how the fierce wind roars, it will not fall. With a flexible stem, silently make your own wordless noise.
The eyes of the mysterious man who couldn't see his face clearly had long been attracted by this special scene.
Grass is also a life.
Can live, who would like to die?
"Dog mongrel, since you won't let me give birth, Lao Tzu won't let you live well!"
The eyes of the mysterious man who could not see clearly became blood-red. The muscles on his face were already hideous.
Behind him, stood a silent crowd of people. In addition to despair, there is also anger, hatred, and cruelty projected in their eyes.
Huang He was shocked into a cold sweat by this extremely strong, as if there was a substance of hatred. But strangely, even so, he still didn't wake up from meditation.
In the middle of nowhere, a military surveillance satellite painted with the insignia of the Federation. The focus of the observation camera is converging on this small force that is thousands of miles away on the ground. In an instant, the radio waves, which recorded countless special signals, were invisibly driven by the energy and rushed towards the location of the receiving station that was rapidly landing on the ground.
Washington, the highest military command of the Union.
Looking at the number of observations that had just been received, jΓΉ in front of him. Admiral Clauger's gloomy face finally bloomed with a relieved smile that had been difficult to find for several days.
When he received the report of a mine strike at the ground monitoring station, he was not quite convinced that it was true. After all, some dizzy animals can also break into minefields and cause explosions. It wasn't until the Space Monitoring Information Headquarters sent back the same report that he believed that his luck had finally come.
However, to be on the safe side, he still needs to make a final decision before making a final decision. Again, verify it.
"Can you be sure it's them?" These words were addressed to the staff officer who had brought the report.
"I've double-checked. Regardless of the number of personnel, the direction of the route, and the rationing of equipment. All are identical to the bodies that disappeared before. The probability of agreement is as high as 98.6%. "The staff officer, who was dressed in the uniform of a naval cadet, looked particularly confident.
βOKοΌβ Clauge clenched his right fist and slammed it on the smooth table with excitement: "Order the 1st and 2nd Assault Brigades to outflank from both flanks." Cooperate with all ground forces to carry out the attack. At the same time, the Air Force was ordered to cooperate with the bombing. This time, they must not be allowed to slip away again. Solve all problems at once. β
More than half a month has passed, and the coup d'Γ©tat has taken place for the people living within the inner circle of the Federation. There was no impact at all.
The menus of major hotels in Washington are still buzzing. Expensive and delicious delicacies are highly sought after, but they are also criticized and praised by gourmets. In the most lively nightclubs, the special aroma of expensive cigars is intertwined with the reward of cellaring rare wines of the century. You can always see a lot of swaying bills, as well as the fragrant girls who are confused and indulged in them, held in the arms of a big guy, and pinched and twitched up and down wantonly with their white and tender thighs.
Ordinary people continue to go to work and go home. The only thing that has changed is that their pockets are bulging, and the variety and quantity of goods that can be supplied in the market are greater and richer.
Singer, artist, busy with his own career.
The realm of scholars and poets is also undisturbed.
All the qiΔ are moving in the direction they are taking.
Of course, people can also hear "illegal" news from certain channels. Except for satisfying their curiosity for a moment, the effect of these messages is no longer touching them.
Infection, nuclear explosion, radiation...... O God Almighty! How far away, what a terrible thing that is. Hopefully, never by my side.
Perhaps, there are still some "kind" people who will shed tears and sorrow for the refugees who are far away and are struggling on the line of death. They also wear plain white clothes and carry a thick candle. Standing somewhere for a long time and praying silently. Let the crowd of onlookers sigh in admiration.
This is called "best wishes". It only takes a little time to use your brain to make a few useless thoughts. can win the so-called "good deeds".
Such a move actually has no effect on reality at all.
The World Theatre on New Broadway has always been the favorite place of President Huang He.
He loved opera.
This ancient art can completely release his nervous mood. Especially at the end of the highest trill of the aria, in the deepest part of his heart, there will always be a trace of incomparably comfortable ripples.
"Hamlet" is a famous drama that has been around for a long time. It was also one of Wilgen's favorite plays.
However, tonight, he is destined not to fully appreciate what he has been looking forward to. A mysterious and familiar phone call forced him to leave his beloved theater. Sit back down at your cold desk.
"I want to remind you! In accordance with the predetermined agreement, I have fulfilled all my responsibilities. Next, I need to see the duties and obligations that you can fulfill for this. And, not for too long. I don't have much patience left! β
The gloomy face of Huang He, the language that came out of his mouth was diametrically opposed to mildness: "Now, more than one-third of the earth's land has become a nuclear radiation zone of different degrees. I'm doing my best to do what I have to do as much as I can as part of the agreement. Your urging really makes me embarrassed! β
"Embarrassed? Hum! Hum! Hum! On the other end of the phone, there was a chilling sneer: "What's there to be embarrassed about?" You are now the sole ruler of the Earth Federation. Those redundant parliamentarians, with the cooperation of you and me, have either been killed or disappeared completely. With a single command, you can get exactly what you want. Therefore, I have good reason to suspect that you are simply shirking for no reason. β
"You can't insult me with such words!"
Contrary to the strict interpretation of righteousness in the mouth. In the eyes of Federal President Huang He, a cold light full of hatred and anger was projected: "Give me another week." I will make all your requests met in the most complete way. I promise! β
"Excellent! I'll see! After this sentence floated softly, the stranger on the phone hung up unceremoniously.
Pinching the microphone full of blind sounds, the Yellow River was stunned for a long time. He didn't expect that the other party would be so decisive. Because of his anger and shame, his face instantly turned red.
"Sir, do you need a hot cup of coffee?"
Seeing this, the henchmen standing on the side hurriedly spoke. He knew what his master needed most at such a time.
"Get out! Get out of here! β
When he came back to his senses, he was furious like a fierce hungry lion. Biting his lip, he grabbed whatever he could reach and threw it at the people next to him. In a mixture of surprise and shock, he was soon left alone in the huge office.
He gritted his teeth, and the muscles in his face twitched sharply. In his hand, he still held a delicate pencil.
"Quack---"
With a crisp crackling sound, the poor pencil snapped. The anger on Huang He's face was gradually replaced by cruel madness.
The next day, the private residence of the President of the Federation.
"What do you say? Giving way to the fringes of the districts that are currently under actual control? And contaminate them all with radioactive waste? My God, did I hear it wrong, or are you talking gibberish? β
In a small private conference room, a loud noise suddenly burst out. The shock made people's ears "buzz" and tremble. The source of his voice was Lavika, a frail and elderly president of Moore Bank in a wheelchair. Carmor.
Huang He, who was the person being asked, was holding a cup of slightly cold coffee and sipping it methodically. It seems that the other party's screams failed to arouse any interest in him at all.
All around, except for the powerful Secretary of Defense Klauger. There are also representatives from the Wien family, the Carlos shipping group, and the Mayekvaz Arms Company. Their eyes were also full of incomprehension and questions.
"You heard me right." Raising his head and looking around, Huang He said lightly: "What I mean is indeed to let the edge of the controlled zhΓ¬ area appear. This part of the land accounts for more than one-fifth of the existing control area. β
"Why?" Old man Lavica's eyes widened: "Do you want to build the wall again?" Do you need to spend a lot of resources doing the same thing? Have you forgotten the agreement you made with us? β
These questions are also the doubts in the hearts of all those present. It's just that Ravica's reaction was a little too violent. Of course, if you change anyone and invest a lot of money in advance, you will not get any return. But he was forced to give up what he had already put in his mouth again. I believe that they will all react exactly the same way.
"I must first secure my rule in the district." Huang He smiled at him kindly. In a voice full of temptation, he said slowly: "At present, the number of reorganized federal troops is not enough to guard the entire border. This is one of them. Second, there are too many civilians within the control line. There is no guarantee that the new welfare policy will be implemented on everyone's head. Third, I think that all of you here will not be satisfied with the status quo for resource needs, right? β
"You mean......" Morun. Vane was quick to react. He had already vaguely guessed the meaning of the other party's words.
"Oil fields in the Midwest of Asia, southern Europe. Abundant materials, coal, iron, rare gold and other minerals in the designated area. If you can get these things. I believe that it is enough to offset your losses. And, can it bring more generous returns? β
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Since the earth entered the industrial age, the exploitation of energy and minerals has reached an unprecedented level. In order to push the process of civilization to the extreme. Human beings are like a swarm of hungry ants, gnawing on the earth as a fruitful fruit. In order to just want to dig out the thick soil and dig out what you need most.
Under this almost chaotic frenzy of mining, large quantities are wasted without being fully utilized. Although, with the progress of science and technology, more and more new energy sources have become substitutes for traditional oil, coal, iron and other materials. However, no matter in any case, no matter from the point of view of the quality and performance of the manufactured products, the new resources that are replaced always have various disadvantages that cannot be expected.
The mineral deposits distributed on the earth are like a naughty child. They always appear in places that people don't even imagine. Just a few years ago, a report investigated by the relevant federal authorities repeatedly raised the question of the underground of some densely populated large and medium-sized cities in eastern Asia, central and southern Africa, and western Europe. There is a staggering number of new veins buried.
This news has made countless people excited and crazy. But in the end, it is always in a helpless situation.
In order to excavate and mine, it is first necessary to relocate all the inhabitants of the city on the surface of the mineral area. The number of people who have moved to tens of millions of people, and the costs related to real estate and reconstruction, are absolutely astronomical figures that anyone will tremble at the sight of it.
At that time, there were also several powerful consortia that were eager to try. However, when they carefully and repeatedly calculated the cost of the investment and the likely return. The huge number difference made them have to dispel this arrogant idea.
The designated area of the Yellow River includes 36 such densely populated cities. Taken together, the number of permanent residents involved will not be less than 200 million.
That is, once this plan is finalized. Well, all civilians in this area. All must be completely migrated within the specified timeframe.
Huge and cold beads of sweat oozed densely from the head of Mo Lun, the representative of the Venn family. This is compared to hundreds of billions of dollars previously provided to the federal government. If the normal method is followed, all immigrants will be resettled. The costs incurred...... It's unimaginable.
Polar opposite of him. Lavika, the president of Carmore Bank, this shrewd old Jew. But from the words of the Yellow River, I smelled something unusual. He stopped talking. Just stared intently at the Federal President sitting in front of him, drinking coffee leisurely with a meaningful and deep gaze.
"200 million people, that's too many...... Demolition and resettlement should be carried out in a normal way, of course, no. However, according to federal law, the amount of compensation is generally determined by the person being evicted and the government in consultation with the government. That is, if these migrants do not claim any compensation. Naturally, then, the government would not be stupid enough to shove money into their pockets. β
When he said this, the expression on Huang He's face was flat, gentle, and even had a hint of a smile. It seems that he is talking about a trivial family matter.
It's just that in the hearts of all listeners, there is an indescribable horror and fear.
Of course, they know the hidden meaning of the Yellow River dialect.
"If, in all the municipalities in the area, there is no protest or opposition to this. Well, those minerals that are buried in the ground. You can get a limited mining right by way of guΓ² bidding. Of course, conventionally, the federal government must take 40 percent of the revenue. β
"Your Excellency! It is not my intention to question your ability to execute this plan. Suddenly, Carlos, who had been silent, spoke: "I'm just a little curious, with the current strength of the federal army, I want to clean up as many as 200 million civilians at once. Whether...... Not realistic? β
"Who said they were going to be cleaned up?" Huang He raised his head and looked at him with a smile: "200 million people, it seems like a lot." But in my opinion, it's not much different from 200 million ants. β
As soon as the words came out, all the listeners couldn't help but shudder.
"There are so many ways to deal with ants." Huang He didn't seem to see the expressions on everyone's faces, and still said to himself: "Spread viruses, carry out radiation attacks, and poison in large quantities...... Hehe! We owe a debt of gratitude to our ancestors who died young. They are the ones who have given the world so many ways to kill. However, of all the alternative answers, the one I like the most is to drive them away. In contrast, this is the easiest, the least expensive, and the least. "Traditionally, the federal government has to take 40 percent of that revenue."
