Chapter 494: Burn another fire

At the other end of the videoconference, the South African president, after saying his position, immediately went offline, and the figure disappeared from the screen.

He left so desperately that the federal president had no chance of retaining it.

His sudden departure has surprised and worried presidents in other countries.

The federal president saw the South African president's screen go black and called several times in a row to try to reconnect, but the South African president did not respond.

With the dismissal of South Africa's president, the presidents of other countries have also begun to fall silent.

"Perhaps, Mandela's decision was right, our military power cannot be compared to that of the Federation. So, instead of rebelling, it is better to obey. So said the president of a small country.

"Coward, coward!" A violent president jumped up, "We should cooperate with the Federation to resist the conquerors together!" ”

"Only then will we be able to account to future generations!"

A female president sneered: "If we do that, there will probably be no future generations, and then there will be no need to say anything." ”

"I'm sorry, but we chose to surrender."

"Wait, Miss Niss."

"Unfortunately, we don't have the strength to fight the conquerors, so we also choose to surrender."

"Actually, you don't have to be too pessimistic, think about it from another angle, maybe after surrendering, the conquerors will be able to share the technology of the march with us, don't you envy Wakanda?"

"You cowards, I tell you, even if I am the only one left in the end, I will fight to the end."

On the screen, the presidents have their own opinions.

Some sided with the Federation, while many more chose to surrender.

Some presidents went offline after saying goodbye, while others simply cut off the video connection.

Looking at the screens that went off one by one, the Federal President sighed deeply, took off his glasses, and gently pinched his eyebrows.

He was disappointed, but he also understood the position of other countries.

In the face of strong pressure from the conquerors, many countries have understandably chosen to retreat.

Although the Federal President had anticipated this before the meeting, he felt a deep sense of helplessness when he actually faced it.

He was well aware that this time the resistance, they did not have the support of all countries.

Although he understands those who choose to retreat, deep down, he is disappointed in those who choose to give up resistance.

At this turning point in history, the federal president is feeling unprecedented pressure.

He knew that they needed more support to fight the conquerors.

For example, the Avengers.

Just as the federal president was floating on this thought, suddenly, the screen in front of his eyes flickered, and then a new picture appeared.

All the screens showed the figure of the conqueror, the blonde man with blue eyes who was now the nightmare of the Federal President.

This nightmare is now in front of me again.

The conqueror on the screen smiled.

"Just now, we received responses from 87 countries, and they all made the right choice."

"I will announce the names of these countries next, and promise here that all countries that are willing to establish ties with John's Empire will be protected by us."

"Any country, group, or individual attacking these countries, or even public opinion, will be regarded as a provocation against us."

"My response is simple, whether you're a country, a group or an individual."

"Provocateur, I will give equal destruction."

"It's been 12 hours since we gave the ultimatum, and in order to help others make up their minds faster, I am now announcing."

"After 12 hours, we'll prioritize attacking the Earth Federation, if they don't want to join."

"So, the non-federal or the native residents of the federation who are still in the federation."

"If you want to, you can evacuate now, unless you want to live and die with the Federation, I believe you will make the right choice."

"In addition, in the next 12 hours, all acts of support for the Federation, whether it is material assistance or public support."

"They will all be regarded as collaborators of the Federation, in other words, enemies of ours."

"At that time, when we attack the Federation, we will also attack the Federation's allies."

"Humans, I allow you to challenge my authority, as long as you are willing to pay the price."

"Finally, I wish everyone on the planet a happy 12 hours."

End of communication.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the conference room.

One of the generals stood up and roared: "Despicable! This vile conqueror, who has made us the number one target, is to use us to show off their military might! ”

"At the same time, it's a warning, a warning to other countries."

The Home Secretary rubbed his brows and sighed: "Not only that, but he also threatens other countries, so that other countries will definitely not be on our side." ”

The Minister of Defense said loudly: "But we can force them to support, how many countries we have supported over the years, helped them build a reassuring line of defense, and let them have enough confidence to face the enemy who is eyeing them!" ”

"How many countries have we brought peace, and at this turning point in history, they must make the right choice!"

Ministers and officials spoke, but the Federal President remained silent, even leaving his seat and calling the secretary aside.

"Have you made contact with the Avengers?"

The secretary shook his head: "There has been no answer." ”

"Since the death of Colonel Rod, we've basically lost touch with the Avengers."

The Federal President smiled wryly: "It would have been much better if we had been able to contact them and have them attend the press conference." ”

"But now, I can probably imagine what will happen in the next 12 hours."

"Hold a press conference, the Union should be a voice, not a silence."

If he could, the federal president would actually want to remain silent, or control the media and steer public opinion.

The Conqueror's level of technology is far above that of Earth, and every time he appears, he will broadcast live from all over the world.

News like the one just now cannot be blocked at all, and if the media is forcibly controlled to suppress public opinion, it will only backfire.

In such a situation, the only thing the federal president can do is to come forward and explain the situation, give guidance, and minimize unrest.

However, the federal president still underestimated the impact of the global live broadcast just now.

After the conquistador's powerful words, the entire Commonwealth was plunged into chaos and panic.

An atmosphere of despair is deeply enveloped in people, and even the Federation, which is considered the most powerful nation on Earth, seems unable to withstand the threat of forces from beyond Earth.

Despite the Federation's military might, it all seems so insignificant in the face of forces from the universe.

Military forces from outside Earth will prioritize attacking the Federation in just 12 hours, causing doubts and worries about the Federation's future.

What's more, the words of the conqueror just now directly threatened the allies of the Federation, so that the allies did not dare to act rashly.

If the Federation is unwilling to surrender, then when the time limit expires, the Federation will be isolated like an island.

In major cities like New York, Washington, and Chicago, residents are scrambling to flee the city in search of a safe haven.

But now, there is no safe place to go other than to leave the Federation.

So the streets were filled with people, carrying their valuables or hurrying to pack their belongings and prepare to flee the soon-to-be-war zone.

Chaos and panic gripped the city, and people fled desperately, even if they abandoned some of their assets.

At the same time, the borders of the country have changed dramatically.

Gone are the usual illegal smuggling of immigrants in the past, replaced by large numbers of federal citizens illegally crossing borders in an attempt to enter other countries in search of asylum.

This has made the countries surrounding the Federation extremely sensitive and nervous, and they fear that the flow of refugees will bring uncontrollable social problems to their countries.

In the city, black people took the opportunity to loot shops, and social order was thrown into chaos.

The police and military are busy responding to these contingencies, but they are also struggling to contain the deterioration of the situation.

Hopes for the future have been dashed, and the fate of the Federation has become unknown.

In this case, even the usually high-ranking wealthy are panicking, fleeing the country by private jet, even if they have been warned that they need to abandon some of their assets, but they cannot change their choices.

For a time, the entire federation fell into chaos and panic.

People feel that the rumors are in danger, and everyone is in danger.

This atmosphere of despair permeated every corner, the city became empty, the shops were ransacked, and the social order was paralyzed.

In this situation, many people began to look for a way out.

Some have tried to cross borders into other countries to seek asylum, while others have chosen to remain in the Commonwealth, hoping to find a safe place to escape the disaster.

However, for most people, their choice is not determined by themselves, but by reality.

As time went on, things got worse and worse in the Federation.

More and more people are starting to lose hope, they feel abandoned and helpless.

In this situation, some people began to become aggressive, and they began to loot and attack government agencies and commercial facilities.

This chaotic situation has further exacerbated the unrest in society.

Even if the Federal President holds a press conference in time and assures citizens of the country that the Federation will be able to handle the crisis.

However, how many people will believe it?

At a time when the Federation was in turmoil due to the conquistador's speech, and had begun to collapse from within, far away in New Asgard, Norway, Thor smashed the second computer to smithereens.

"This bastard, he's provoking a war, damn it!"

Thor's eyes surged with blue lightning, and there were already electric snakes dancing on the surface of his body.

Valkyrie looked at the TV that had been smashed by Thor's fist and sighed, "I just bought it from the store." ”

"I just swiped my credit card, but if there was a war, maybe I wouldn't have paid for it."

Thor spread his hands: "Isn't it, is it time to discuss this kind of thing?" ”

Valkyrie shrugged his shoulders: "But I can't do anything against the conqueror, can I fight against the conqueror with a few of us?" ”

She pointed to the king, "Didn't this Mr. Magician remind us that in addition to the Infinity Gauntlet, the conqueror also has a 'dark book' in his hand. ”

"Spare me, my courage has been used against your sister back then."

Thor patted her on the back, "This doesn't look like a crazy chick I know." ”

"I'm not that crazy anymore." Valkyrie shook his head, "Especially since I've quit drinking lately. ”

"Alright, guys."

The king came to him: "We may not be at a loss. ”

He pointed to AmΓ©rica Chavez: "This little girl has found a suitable universe to use to imprison the conqueror, and if we can exile the conqueror to that universe, he will not return." ”

"That's it."

Valkyrie interjected: "In this case, our enemy will have one less conqueror, and only his army and his generals will remain, awesome." ”

Thor covered her mouth and smiled apologetically at the others, "She's been quitting drinking lately, and she's a little grumpy. ”

Banner smiled wryly, "The mad girl is right, but even one less conqueror is a good thing." ”

"It's just that it's not easy to exile the conquerors to another parallel universe."

Spider-Man nodded: "I just analyzed, to complete this plan, we need to do at least two things. ”

Peter. Parker held up a finger: "First, we'll have to let the conqueror into an alternate universe, and I'm guessing he won't enter that universe willingly." ”

"Therefore, no matter what we do, deceive, seduc, or use force, we must throw him into that parallel universe, and this plan has a little chance of being realized."

He held up a second finger: "However, the conqueror is not stupid, and even if we can accomplish the first thing, we still have to think about the second thing." ”

"Second, how do we ensure that the conqueror stays in that alternate universe honestly?"

"He's going to try to get out, he's fast, at least there's a chance he'll be able to get out when the passage is closed on the outside."

"In that case, our plans will be ruined, at least I don't think he'll step on the same trap twice."

There was silence.

"We need to make sure he doesn't come out when America Chavez closes the passage, if that's the case," said Wang.

Banner looked up: "Someone needs to make a sacrifice." ”

"Come on, I'll stay in another universe with the conqueror when the time comes, I'll control him, and with all my power, I should be able to delay until America closes the passage." (End of chapter)
