Chapter 779: Good News and Bad News
There is no doubt that the hole cards of the forces behind Dave are nothing else, but dozens, if not hundreds, of nuclear weapons that are hidden somewhere.
Since the invention of the nuclear bundling mechanism, the world's nuclear powers have each created a set of effective retaliation mechanisms, the most famous of which is the "Dead Hand System".
To put it simply, when the head of a nuclear power and its chain of command are destroyed by an enemy country, their nuclear weapons will still be launched in one go according to the pre-set goal, so as to achieve indiscriminate and devastating strikes on a global scale.
In particular, the frenzied Russian Maozi even announced that as long as the Kremlin was hit by a nuclear attack, then their "dead hand system" would be activated immediately, so that human civilization would degenerate from the information age back to the Stone Age.
It is precisely the existence of this mechanism that avoids the possibility of direct conflict between nuclear powers, but also buries a huge hidden danger.
If someone or organization can secretly deliver or launch nuclear weapons to Washington, D.C., Moscow, and other places, and then detonate them immediately, and eliminate the heads of the United States and Russia, then he can start a third world war, and a thermonuclear war full of destruction.
Lu Li only understood at this moment why when he first met Calvin, the other party would say something like "at the cost of destroying the whole world".
It turns out that he is not using exaggerated rhetorical devices, nor is he trying to emphasize his determination and attitude, but he is really able to do it.
Perhaps in some corner of the earth, there is still a factory for enriching nuclear materials secretly established by the other side, otherwise it will certainly not be able to guarantee the long-term maintenance and maintenance of dozens of nuclear weapons.
The thought of missiles flying sideways in the sky and mushroom clouds blooming one after another, Lu Li felt a chill.
Although he was obsessed with the unique wasteland atmosphere of the Fallout series for a while, and liked to scavenge for scraps and bottle caps, if he really lived in that environment, I am afraid that few normal people could stand it.
After all, once the existing social order, legal and financial system collapses, it is always the rich who lose the most.
Their deposits will be turned into meaningless scrap paper, the stocks and bonds they invest in will be worthless, and even the real estate that survived the nuclear bombing will be taken over by those who survived the nuclear bombing.
In a way, all-out war is a reshuffle of resources and wealth that breaks with the existing framework, and no one with even the slightest bit of assets likes that.
Unfortunately, Lu Li is currently a rich man, and with the help of JPMorgan Chase Bank, a global financial capital interest group, he will become richer and richer in the future, so he does not want to see anyone grow mushrooms on the earth at all.
Thinking of this, he immediately asked: "Do you know where these nuclear weapons and launch vehicles are hidden?"
Akimchik shook his head with a wry smile: "Sorry, we are only responsible for care and maintenance, most of the time we don't even know where we are. But one thing you can keep in mind is that Dave once mentioned a guy called Pocket Man, who seems to have the ability to shrink objects to a few tenths of their original size, and is responsible for transporting some valuables, including nuclear weapons. ”
"Yes, I've heard of this pocket man, but I've never seen him show up. In fact, we don't know much about supernatural powers, except for the occasional phenomenon that cannot be explained by science. Abrasha chimed in.
"Okay, I see, now let's talk about work and pay. For example, what else do you do besides overhaul nuclear weapons, and how much salary Dave pays you. ”
Seeing that the other party could not provide any useful information, Lu Li immediately shifted the topic to other aspects.
Abrasha lowered his eyes and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "We will have a lot of things, including mechanics, physics, electronics, mathematics, chemistry, metal smelting, etc., as long as you can provide the corresponding equipment and raw materials, we can even build a nuclear warhead for you by hand." As for the salary, Dave gave us half a million euros a year. ”
"What about thermal power plants, can you make a thermal power plant work?" Lu Li asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
You know, he's been worrying about how to get the coal power plant in Kempela up and running, and now that someone is coming to his door, what can he do if he doesn't make full use of it.
"Thermal power plant? What type of coal? If it's coal, I think we're up to the task. Because the technical content of this power plant is not high, it does not need many high-end talents, as long as you are familiar with it for a while, even the illiterate can maintain normal operation. Akimchik gave a serious assurance.
When Lu Li heard this, he instantly raised his eyebrows, smiled and spread his hands and announced: "Both, I have a good news and a bad news now, which one do you want to hear first?"
Akimchik glanced at his old friend and replied cautiously, "I want to hear the bad news first." ”
"The bad news is that you will never be able to go home and see your relatives and friends again, live a normal life, and the only thing you have to do is work for me. Lu Li didn't hide his intentions at all, and said it openly.
He has decided to send these two old men to another world, to the god-given city of Kempera, and try to establish a system that combines supernatural power civilization with earth's industrial civilization, and it is estimated that it is unlikely that he will return in his lifetime.
"And what about the good news?" Abrasha asked unhurriedly, apparently anticipating this outcome.
Lu Li smiled slightly: "The good news is that I will offer a salary of two million euros per year, you can designate a person as a beneficiary, I can pay by cash, check, bank transfer, stocks, bonds, etc., if you perform well, every once in a while, I will allow you to have no more than half an hour of video calls with your relatives and friends." At the same time, you will get a chance to immigrate. Of course, this migration is not referring to the earth, but to another world, a world that exists only in myths and legends......"
"What...... What?!Another world!Do you mean a parallel universe?, or another planet?" The old man with glasses suddenly became excited, his wrinkled face full of shock.
"I'm sorry, I don't have time to explain too much, why don't you go and see for yourself?" As he spoke, Lu Li took out the metal door that had been automatically closed with an angle iron card from the magic backpack in the trunk of Knight XV, and then pushed it gently.
Moment!
On the other side of the gate, the fantastic and magnificent scene of the Elemental Heart was completely presented in front of the two old men.
Akimchik only glanced at it, and then fell to his knees with a thud and muttered to himself with tears streaming down his face: "Oh my God! Unbelievable! What is this place? What are those huge tornadoes floating in the sky?"
