Chapter 66: The Day After Tomorrow 5
(Thanks to Gu Yue, Painting, TalkTtell, and lihaos for their tips and support)
The Big Three signed the Quantum Non-Proliferation Treaty to prevent an arms race around quantum fluctuation technology and promote international cooperation in the peaceful use of quantum fluctuation energy.
This is just a high-sounding statement, at present, the quantum wave engine has not yet been miniaturized, at most it can only be mounted on the aircraft carrier, and I don't know how many teenagers want to see quantum wave tanks, quantum wave fighters, quantum wave submarines, and quantum energy cannons.
It is true that the "armament issue" will be considered in the future, but the Big Three are considering the "energy issue" - the quantum wave engine, which has changed the world's energy landscape, and 'all mankind shares the fruits of Lyle's scientific research' is clearly not in their national interests.
The citizens of the Big Three will find that with the establishment of quantum wave reactors in various places, environmentally polluting thermal power plants will be shut down, potentially risky nuclear power plants will be shut down, gasoline and diesel-burning cars will be phased out, electricity bills will be lowered, air pollution will be reduced, and life will become better.
Citizens of traditional energy-exporting countries will find themselves in a country that has fallen off the altar and civil strife erupts due to a fiscal crisis. There is certainly a market for fossil fuels, which are the raw materials for many chemical products, but if the demand for fossil fuels drops sharply in the Big Three, and other countries are still heavily dependent on fossil fuels, their approach to these traditional energy exporters will inevitably change with their positions.
The citizens of other countries found that the Big Three were striding forward and their own countries were regressing, and government officials cried and begged their allies to take them with them, but they were perfunctory by the various official tones of the Big Three. Technology sharing will never be possible, and it is feasible to help build a quantum fluctuation reactor, but in addition to being mentally prepared to be slaughtered, we must also wait for the transformation of the domestic energy structure of the three giants to basically complete.
Of course, this is only a general summary, and specific international relations are much more complex.
The signing of the "Quantum Non-Proliferation Treaty" by the Big Three does not mean that they have a good relationship, and country M is familiar with violating the agreement and tearing up the agreement, and intends to profit its hardcore allies, while countries E and Z will not sit idly by, or suspend the cooperation project, or you will do the first day of junior high school and I will do the fifteenth.
Countries M and E are playing proxy wars in traditional energy-exporting countries, victim countries have cultivated terrorist organizations, terrorist attacks have occurred frequently in various countries, and the two countries have dispatched their armies in the name of suppressing terrorism.
Because Lyle is not optimistic about the future of the O-League, which looks beautiful like a sand castle but is about to collapse at the touch of a button, the company he created does not accept the investment of the O-League, causing the countries of the O-League to stand in a position of being bullied. The O Alliance does not dare to call out the Big Three head-on, but it is still a force to be reckoned with, and its various self-help measures are disturbing the world situation and making the Cold War mentality of the Big Three soar.
Behind the scenes, a certain force launched the [Save the Sage Movement] to denounce the government of country M that put Lyle, a genius scientist who has made great contributions to all mankind, under house arrest on an island. The government of country M issued a statement that "the national intelligence services have received credible information that a terrorist organization intends to assassinate our scientist Mr. Lyle, and with the consent of Mr. Lyle, our country will provide the highest level of protection for his personal safety", but it is obviously unconvincing, and there is a wave of demonstrations in country M.
-- This period of chaos, known as the 'energy cold war' and the reconstruction of the world pattern, lasted for more than 20 years.
"Ha~ I didn't expect me to leave the island one day~" Lyle, who was over sixty years old, stepped off the ship and immediately received the highest standard welcome from the M Army honor guard, but he didn't seem too excited.
Although he passed the time with "The Legend of Ichiban" and countless dungeons, was accompanied by lovers in rotation, his children would come back to visit him during the holidays, his material needs were supplied to the world's top level, and civilian scientific research projects continued, it was an indisputable fact that he had lost his precious freedom.
There is no resentment in his heart just because this path was chosen by himself, but patriotism, understanding, relief or anything else cannot be done at all.
"Huh?" Lyle, who was trying to find his lover and children, happened to see two high-ranking officers in different military uniforms and with familiar faces, ignoring the process arranged by the government, and walked over to talk, "Isn't this the [Empress] and the [Magic Bullet Envoy]?" Your husband and wife are the captain and co-captain of a space battleship that is about to be completed? β
"Freedom M Lijian, shooting every day, I was born to live in this country~" are all soldiers, Namura is still very improper, "After Kiryu Kazuma became the first pilot of the space fighter, I will target the captain of the space battleship, and the sea of stars is worthy of our life~"
Tian Yu said expressionlessly: "Although a certain old guy has violated military discipline many times, he is only a second lieutenant now, and it is all up to me to arrange him to the position of deputy captain." β
"It's enough to have a goal to achieve~" Na Cun Budao has no shame at all since he was young, "In other words, it's unscientific enough to behead a 60-year-old who looks like a 40-year-old, why do you look like you're only in your 30s, have you been soaking in a life-support device on the island?" β
"How is it possible, this is called knowing how to maintain." No, this is the blessing of the gods, "I am a staunch supporter of natural death, and one of my goals is to die in a somatosensory suit, so that future generations will know [what Uncle Ben was thinking in the last minute of his life]~"
Tian Yu raised his eyebrows and groaned, "...... No wonder the group of people above have been discussing your affairs for the past few years, because they were afraid that you would suddenly die. β
"Those guys wanted to throw me in when I was fifty, but ......," Lyle squinted his eyes and sneered, "and if a man wants to die, no one can stop him." β
Other 60-year-old rich people in country M don't care whether he lives or dies, waiting to collect a huge inheritance tax, but everyone in "this rich man" hopes that he will live forever, and those who disagree are anti-humanists.
"Huh~ The name 'Problem Old Man' looks like I'm going to give it up." Namura shrugged, no matter how perverse he and Tianyu were, they would not choose to end their lives early.
In fact, when they commanded the spaceship to arrive on Mars and complete its return, they were soon decommissioned and immersed in life-support equipment.
"Ahem." The officer next to him reminded the three of them what the occasion was.
"Yes, yes~ Shake hands with the President, and thank the government for 'protecting' me over the years~" Lyle shrugged, turned and walked on.
For the sake of the long-lost freedom, let's be patient a little longer.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Decades have passed since "............", and Lyle's ghost has once again come to the reincarnation god.
It's still the same old routine.
Add a divine power first, and then send it to a higher level of science.
This divine power did not lead to the appearance of new effects, but only made the previous effects better. The other blessing effects are theoretically stronger the better, but the point of 'handsomeness' is a bit subtle......
Lyle's face is becoming more neutral, andβmore and more like the reincarnated god.
