Steck Pantycoster, as the commander-in-chief of the PPDC. When he announced the existence of the Temporal Authority, he was ready to die.

Steck pinned all his hopes on the Temporal Authority, hoping that the Temporal Authority would solve the problems of the world and return the world to its original appearance.

The Temporal Authority did what he had in mind, albeit with a few minor twists and turns. But they did come, and they had the power to solve the plane's troubles.

However, the problem also arises. If you want the Temporal Authority to solve the world's troubles, you have to show your spirit of resistance. Those who can't even resist are not worth saving.

Now Sterke just wants to pick up a pistol and shoot the four people on the other side of the video call.

The Kaiju Beast dragged its wounded body and destroyed the monster wall before it disappeared, but until now, they still pressed the treasure against the tattered wall.

Even, after they learned of the existence of the Temporal Authority, they became even more depraved.

"General Panticoster, you should tell us who you summoned the aliens! What the hell are they coming to Earth for! ”

The speech of the representative of the magnesium country made Steck's heart extremely disappointed. He had already given the answer, but he didn't expect this group of people to pretend not to see it.

There are more than 20,000 people in the entire Broken Dome, and there must be spies arranged by these people in front of them, and the intentions and related attitudes of the Time and Space Administration must have been passed on to them word for word.

But now, it's ridiculous to pretend that you don't know anything.

The silent Sterk was perceived as uncooperative by the other side, and they threatened Sterk and said, "General Panticor, as a soldier you should obey orders!" As for those alien friends of yours, as long as they can deal with those monsters, we can give them a normal treatment, in the name of the diplomatic corps! ”

These words made Panticost hear it in his ears, and he only felt more and more ridiculous. How did you get so much money in the hands of this group of people before?

Oh, almost forgot, he simply doesn't have enough money. A large part of PPDC's operating capital is obtained by him through the illegal monster trade.

Even when describing the Space-Time Authority as aliens, why didn't they give those aliens diplomatic treatment?

"Sorry guys, I'm late......"

At this time, an old man appeared on the black screen that was originally standby, and he said slowly: "I'm old, I can't use these novel equipment at all, so I can only ask my subordinates to help debug it." By the way, how did you talk about it? Time and Space Authority? Seems like that's the name, right? ”

The old man's interruption made the original one-sided crusade against Sterk disappear in an instant, and the other four representatives stared at each other across the screen.

Magnesium Representative: 'You didn't talk to that side?' ’

Representative Yingguo: 'I listened to you, I thought you had already talked......

Representative of the country: 'You've all talked, what else do you want me to talk about?' ’

The representative of the Soviet Union: 'You never take me with you what you talk about!' Tons of tons of ......'

The quality of the politicians made them understand the meaning of the other side in an instant, and now that the caliber is not uniform, there is no way to put pressure on Sturker.

The representative of the magnesium country began to make a phone call, and the representative of the Ying country took the opportunity to change the topic and said, "General Panticor, in view of the need to thicken the monster wall recently, the only way to cut off the funds for the Broken Dome is to cut off the funds. But don't worry, the last eight months of funds you say will definitely give you eight months. Let's finish the wall first, and we'll make ......up for you when we're done."

Such shameless words, dare to say them? Cutting off the funds for the Broken Dome, isn't this a dissolution of the PPDC in situ?

Sterke was completely disappointed in the person in front of him, and he was ignoring the good situation and giving up the earth.

Prior to this contact, Sterke had not divulged out the content of Rorschach's communication with their small group, only widely publicized the responsibilities of the Temporal Authority in the Shattered Dome.

However, these people in front of them only wanted to make the Time and Space Administration responsible, but they never mentioned the obligations they had to fulfill.

Or even take the Temporal Authority's assistance for granted?

"Gentlemen! According to the predictions of mathematician Dr. Herman Griffb, the next attack would occur in a week, then be shortened to four days, and finally every eight hours and finally every four minutes. There may also be multiple monster attacks! ”

Sturker's words finally attracted the attention of the other side, but the attention was not good......

The representative of the magnesium country, who did not get through the phone, threw down the mobile phone and said with a look of uncertainty on his face: "Pantycoste, are you threatening us?" If the time you said was followed, the earth would have been destroyed long ago! ”

"I'm talking about the future! This news has been confirmed with the Temporal Authority! The planet is at stake! ”

"I think it's in your mouth that you're at stake! Maybe these monsters were summoned by your alien friends! ”

“F**K YOU!”

Unable to bear it, Sterke burst out for the first time at the people on the screen, they were all about to die, and they still clung to that bit of power and didn't let go.

"This is the end of our conversation! Sturk, you'd better go and convince your alien friends! ”

Before he could finish speaking, several screens in front of Sterk couldn't wait to turn off.

Sterke was about to leave when a voice stopped him.

"General Panticoster, please stay!"

Sterke turned around, and it was the old man who had stopped him.

At this moment, the old man was saying solemnly: "Let me ask you, will the monster really appear at the time you said?" ”

Steck, who was no longer hopeful, replied with a routine blandness: "This is the result of Dr. Herman Griffb's mathematical model. ”

"That's not what I'm asking! Did that person object to this conjecture, or make any other comments? ”

The person in the old man's mouth naturally refers to Rorschach.

"Nope. Even he was pretty sure that Herman's mathematical model was correct......"

Hearing Sturker's exact answer, the old man's face began to change, from nervous to relieved to worried.

"yes, I see. Let's still live in the broken dome of HK......"

I thought it was a homely affair, but Sturke's dark face showed a hint of unhappiness, when did it happen, and said this!

"I'm having a great time! Thanks, if there is nothing else to do, I'll leave first! ”

"Hey, I didn't say you! Why are you still in such a hurry! No wonder it stormed the Normandy line and was brought down by two shots......"

Hearing this, Sterke at first suspected that the old man in front of him must know something, but he was not sure. After all, he drove a tango wolf to attack the Normandy defense line, which was publicly stated by Rorschach.

However, the old man on the other side took a slow sip of the teacup and said, "When people are old, they will think of some things that they don't have." It's better to be young ......."

"Are you ...... too?"

There is no need for Sterke to say the rest of the words, the old man has already given the answer just now.

The old man put down the teacup, looked at Sterk solemnly and said, "Go and prepare for battle, I can pick up the rags here and get you a few mecha hunters, as long as you don't dislike the previous model." As for the Broken Dome, in the land of HK, can you still starve? ”

With such support, Sterk solemnly put on the military hat clipped to his arm and saluted the old man.

The old man in the video waved his hand and said to Steck, "Go, go, go, get ready to fight." My old bones can help a little bit. By the way, that little Liu, plug in the phone line for me, maybe there will be a nasty guy calling later......"

Looking at the old man on the screen, he refused to help him and skillfully turned off the video call. With a glimmer of hope, Sterke's worries finally subsided.

Walking out of the video conference room, Sterke was about to tell Rorschach the news, but he didn't expect Rorschach to send someone to find him first.

Alwyn and Levi were standing at the door of the conference room, looking at Sterk who was going out, and asked, "General Sterk Panticor, we have something to ask you......"

The guards around the conference room were gone, and there were only two unknown people in front of them. But beside them, there is the Krieg Death Army.

"What do you need to ask me?"

"Your body, and the ...... with Hannibal Week"

Hearing Hannibal's name from the mouth of the person in front of him, Sterke smiled bitterly and breathed a long sigh of relief.

The day has come......

Even with the support of those five people, the PPDC's funding is still not enough to support the operation of eight mech hunter bases in the Pacific Rim.

In terms of the Shattered Dome alone, in its glory, there were thirty Mecha Hunters in this base.

The strategic goal of the PPDC is to build a defense system for the entire Pacific Rim region, how much financial and logistical support is needed?

So Sterke took a risk and put the source of funds in the private sector.

There are strange people among the people, and this is certainly true. Hannibal Zhou was one of them, and when the monster appeared, he keenly seized the opportunity.

Each body part of the Kaiju has been developed by humans for a different role, and their bodies contain a large number of amino chemicals that can be refined to be used as chemical raw materials. The parasites on their bodies are soaked in ammonia and kept as strange pets, although such pets eat meat.

Even the poop of the chrysanthemum beast can be used as fertilizer to fertilize an entire piece of land.

Not to mention the monster bone meal mixed with other animal bone meals, which costs as much as $500 per pound.

The PPDC sends mecha hunters to face the Kaiju Beast, and the dead monster is licensed to Hannibal Zhou to dispose of the corpse materials, and Hannibal Zhou uses the power of the PPDC to expand its business and provide funds to the PPDC. PPDC gets funding to maintain Mecha Hunter. Then the Mecha Hunter kills the Kaiju Beast again......

Hannibal Zhou and PPDC have completed a closed loop, and on this capital chain, a monster industry has been built.

But now that Hannibal is in the eyes of the Temporal Authority, Steck Panticost is also suspicious.

Although Rorschach knew that Steck was okay and that he was already in the countdown to death due to radiation sickness, he would not be a threat.

But the others don't know that neither the Liberty Wings Survey Corps nor the participating World Parliament need an answer.

So, the Survey Corps and Krieger joined forces to clear Sterker's innocence and identify any possible threats to the financial chain.

Sterke, who was being escorted by Krieger, saw his adopted daughter, Mako Mori, and she was looking at him worriedly.

Cai Tiantong was holding the report he had just written and was about to hand it over to Steker, but he was stopped by Heck Hansen on the side.

The commander of an operational base was arrested like this? Without an explanation, the mutiny is only a matter of time.

As he passed Heck Hansen, Sterke paused and said, "You're the commander of the base while I'm away. Calm them down! Remember, cooperate fully! ”

Heck Hansen stopped the excited Cai Tiantong and Mori Mako who tried to get closer, and said, "I will appease them." ”

"I'm talking about full cooperation! Soon a group of mechs will arrive at the Shattered Dome, and I want you to hand them over to the Temporal Authority, and at the same time obey all orders from the Temporal Authority! ”

"But ......"

"No, but! Soldier! That's an order! ”

Sterke yelled at Heck in front of everyone. Mako Mori was even startled by Sturker's voice.

"Order! Marshal Steck Pantycoster! Follow your orders! ”

Heck also responded loudly to Sturker, but in his words, it was more of an emphasis on Sturker's identity as a way to put pressure on the Temporal Authority.

But no one cares......

Alwyn's face was still the same as that cold face, and he began to write and draw in his notebook again, with Levi following Alwyn as a form of insurance.

As for the Krieg soldiers who were escorted? The threat can even make them laugh out loud.

Steck was taken away, and no one in the entire Broken Dome knew where he had gone. Mori Mako and Cai Tiantong searched every room of the Broken Dome, but they couldn't find Sterke.

Rorschach naturally knew the answer, but the two of them did not allow no access to Rorschach at all. Even Heck Hansen, who is now the commander, has not been able to see Rorschach again.

In the brood, Alwyn and Sterk sat facing each other, and Alwyn said, "I'm sorry to contact you in this way, since you were a participant in the 1999 war, we don't need to use strong means to break through your mental defenses and probe memories." It's easy to make idiots. However, some other means of panic detection are still needed......"

Alwyn said these words by pointing to the Cerberus around him, the Cerberus reinforced by the virus can accurately sniff the hormonal changes in the human body, even if the person who has been trained in polygraph and can accurately control the heartbeat, cannot control the hormones on the body.

Sterke looked at the Cerberus on the couch with saliva dripping onto the sofa, and nodded to show that he was already clear.

"So, the first question. Mr. Steck Panticor, what do you think of the Chrysanthemum Beast? ”
