Chapter 1015: Steady Progress
Three days later, an interview titled "King of the Earth" appeared on the front page of all the major newspapers of the LEX Group, accompanied by a classic photo. www.biquge.info Zhao Mai sat on a tall bony throne covered with fangs, sharp thorns, and twisted spine with his feet on the head of a jumping worm, holding his cheek in one hand and pressing the purple-black earth model with the other, with a shallow smile on his face.
Relying on the flying ability of the Chimera spacecraft, the layout of this newspaper was able to quickly reach the printing points of LEX newspapers around the world, thus creating the world's first globally distributed illustrated message in an era when there were no computers and the Internet. The newspaper was sold out immediately, and it took two reprints to meet demand. As for the supplement mentioned in the article, which recorded a more detailed and complete report, it was immediately booked, and all departments of the entire group burst into laughter and said, "The boss is so good." β
This era is the age of adventurers and madmen, the age of the explosion of all kinds of ideas, the age of seeking, creating, and practicing the path for human society. The only problem is that some roads lead to a bright future, and some lead to a self-destructive hell. But no one knows what the future holds, so a man who wants to conquer the world and create order for the whole planet is still within the limits of people's imagination, even if they are arrogant.
There are just two questions: "Can he do it? Who can stop him?"
The answer to the first question soon had a preliminary eyebrow, an attack force composed of 666 Chimera spacecraft suddenly appeared in the earth's orbit, and then separated according to latitude and longitude, ignoring the achievements of human development and construction for a long time, not to mention the deployment of the armies of various countries, neatly lined up in vertical and horizontal formations, and nailed to the European continent. Legions, mainly composed of Wyverns, strike everywhere to destroy humanity's military capabilities from all possible angles. In just an instant, the intelligence processing, military command, and communications networks designed for the traditional "front" "exploded." All tactics have only one choice at such times: "defend on the spot and resist with all your might," and the difference in military literacy between countries is only a matter of the speed of implementing local defense.
Where is there still the front line and the rear? The Wyvern quickly seized air supremacy and destroyed the aircraft manufacturing plant first. They met with stubborn resistance and suffered many defeats during their attacks on the arsenal and ammunition depots, and even the Chimera ship was destroyed. However, when the second wave of 700 ships arrived, the Wyverns were replenished, and the Jumping Dogs and Greenskinned Goblins joined the battlefield, the situation of the human race could no longer be contained.
The dead Z worms became the nourishment of the resting soil, and the purple-red ground could be seen stretching everywhere. The conquest organized themselves to try to clean up this strange thing, but it was everywhere, pressed from all sides, and people couldn't care about it. Although all nations knew that the leader of this biological army was Mount Vesuvius, the topography of the Apennine Peninsula doomed all attempts at military build-up to be hidden. As for landing in Naples by ship from the Mediterranean, it was even more endless without cover.
Europe's industry began to regress, and the mobilization and logistical capabilities of modern warfare fell off a cliff and then fell to their deaths in a deep valley with a thud. In an era when all weapons were based on chemical energy, the control of explosives was basically the control of everything.
Various countries, including poison gas and chemical and biological weapons, have tried various methods to deal with Z-worms. This method was relatively effective at first, but it was quickly adapted by the evolved Z worm, not to mention that this is also a chemical industry. Zhao Mai didn't care about the victory or defeat of the local battlefield, nor did he care about the loss. In his opinion, the dead Z worms can basically be converted into polygons in the end, so there is not much point in calculating the battle damage.
All theaters of war are steadily advancing, and once an area is covered by polygon, it means that the area is under the surveillance of the Z-worm. Zhao Mai definitely couldn't completely stop the workshop from producing ammunition, weapons and other war resources, it was enough for him to stop large-scale industrial production. With the manual production capacity of ordinary humans, it is simply not enough to stop the wave of Z bugs.
At this time, only the superhuman, that is, the superhuman, can still have a certain effect.
"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, what do you think about the governments of various countries pardoning the supernatural and giving them equal rights and equal rights with ordinary humans?" Piero brought a tape recorder this time, as well as two young assistants, a man and a woman, to interview Zhao Mai for the third time. He is basically already the most famous journalist in the world, and his interviews, every bit of his detailed description of Zhao Mai, have become the best-selling news. "You're also a Adept, is there anything you'd like to say to other Adepts?"
"Oh. Zhao Mai replied with this one word. Then, he sighed and said to Piero: "This will be the last time you will come to interview me, and I will not see you next time even if you come, and you will not be able to pass the defense of the Z bug." β
Piero's spiritual head immediately drooped, and he asked with an almost sad face: "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, can you tell me what I did wrong?
"You didn't do anything wrong, I actually appreciate you, and it's for your own good that I didn't let you come. Zhao Mai waved his hand and said, "Because of interviewing me, you have become a famous reporter in the world, and many people are thinking about why you are so lucky and what is the relationship between you and me." Of course, even if you and I say it's just a coincidence, nothing special, no one will really believe it. You're just an ordinary person, much easier to deal with than I am. And in order to deal with me, there is a good chance that you will be controlled next time, or replaced by counterfeiting, anyway, a lot of bad luck will happen. You also know that the Adepts are now starting to work with the government, and that you are too vulnerable to all kinds of abilities. Listen to my advice, and accept it when you see it. β
It was evident that Piero was very reluctant to face such a situation, but he quickly figured out that this was not something that would enable him to make a decision, and that there was no other choice but to accept him. "Thank you for your concern and reminders, Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor. β
"Actually, you're in danger this time. When you proposed to interview me at this time, did you ever think about who would be most beneficial if there was no Death Star in the sky at this time?" Zhao Mai turned his words and raised his finger: "That male assistant of yours has been trying to lock me with some kind of ability. Of course, he never succeeded. Judging by his energy response, I guess it might be some kind of instant death ability, and he thinks he can kill me in one fell swoop and prevent me from resurrecting at the same time. Look, he was sweating suddenly, and it seems I guessed right. β
"As for that female assistant of yours, she's calling for something, and it's definitely not a monster summoning technique, because I don't feel any spatial fluctuations. Zhao Mai continued: "She looks up every once in a while, what can there be in the sky......?" You're not summoning meteorites, comets or whatever, are you? You're in vain, because I've already deployed defenses in space. By the way, how big of a meteorite can you summon? If the moon or the death star falls, I can't catch it, but it won't kill me. If it's less powerful than thatβin other words, if there's no lethality to destroy the planet, you might as well bother. β
The female assistant sweated like rain, and finally collapsed, and said resignedly: "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, I admit defeat. What will be the fate of the two of us if we surrender?"
"It's a waste to kill you, and it's not my usual style. Zhao Mai clapped his hands, "That's it, you guys do one thing for me." Go to Naples and open a camp to dissuade the supernatural and ordinary humans who are not strong enough but want to kill me. If you find out who they are and what they are trying to do, but they don't listen to them or don't do it, you don't have to bother, everyone has to take responsibility for their own lives, that's the most basic thing, right? Of course, it would be better if you could find a way to deal with the Death Star in the sky. β
"Uh, why deal with it?"
"If it fails, I win, and I don't need to rule the planet. β
