Even during the global summit, the United States and other countries did not give up the study of monsters, especially the exploration of the origin of monsters.

At this time, at the military base of the United States, Professor William was pointing to the small blackboard and analyzing his views for a group of soldiers and scientists.

"San Francisco, Manila, Xiangjiang, so far, the monster has attacked these three places, through the monster [Kesev] after it was discovered, it is not difficult to find that the monster walks in a straight line in the sea, their attack is a purposeful attack, the monster's movement route is extended on the map, then the source of the three-headed monster points to this area - the waters of Tonga."

As Professor William analyzed, everyone's eyes focused on the enclosed waters of Tonga on the map.

General Scott looked at the map and said in a heavy tone: "The waters of Tonga are more than a million square kilometers, and the area is too large, and we have no way to find out what is going on under this sea area. ”

Another scientist stepped forward and added: "There is also the Tonga Trench in the waters of Tonga, which is more than 10,000 meters deep at its deepest point, and we also lack deep-water detectors. ”

The discussion then focused on the difficulties of exploring Tonga's waters.

But Professor William has to admit that their claims are very reasonable, and if the current scientific methods are used, it will take at least two to three years for humans to explore the entire Tongan sea. But two or three years is too long, and who knows what the world will be like at that time.

But even so, Professor William had to bite the bullet and explain: "Although the sea area of Tonga is large, it is not as big as the Pacific Ocean, and at least we still have hope to explore the whole area." If we want to be faster, unless, we wait for the fourth, fifth, and sixth monsters to appear, gradually narrow down the scope of exploration, and finally anchor the location where the monster appears. ”

Professor William's point of view is also very clear.

One, humans will start exploring now, and it will take two or three years to complete the exploration and determine the origin of the monster.

Second, human beings are not in a hurry to explore, and wait for a few more batches of monsters to come out and further narrow down the scope before exploring.

The two options took about the same amount of time, but the first took a lot more effort than the second.

Exactly which one to choose needs to be discussed.

However, without waiting for the discussion to start, Scott directly made a decision, "Now that the direction has been determined, let's start exploring the Tonga area, and wait for the monsters to appear later, and reduce the scope one by one." Dr. William, I would like you to help connect scientists from relevant academic circles, such as ocean engineering, to help us in our mission to explore the Tonga Trench. ”

"Okay, of course that's fine."

At this time, someone next to me suggested, "Why don't you gather the rest of the world to explore together, after all, this will save time and money." ”

Scott thought about it for a moment and agreed.

Out of the feelings of his family and country, Scott wanted to refuse in his heart, because the mecha created by the Dragon Kingdom was in the limelight in the world, and the United States must suppress the other party's situation, and finding the source of the monster is the best opportunity to suppress it.

But intellectually, Scott had to accept this suggestion, after all, this kind of large-scale exploration of the deep sea is not something that can be completed in a short period of time. The longer it drags on, the greater the damage caused by the monster. As long as you find out the movement of the monster and avoid it in advance, you can effectively reduce the loss.

"Qin Gong, long time no see!" Wang Xuezheng came to Qin Ran's office and walked in with a smile.

"Isn't it only five days? How long can it last? Qin Ran put down the modified mecha design in his hand and said with a smile.

"Five days, you said it easy, do you know how I got over these five days? I was interviewed every day, and now when I saw the microphone handed over, I instinctively began to play official, and memorized a few large lines, which I had never taken so seriously when I was in school. All day long, I can't take care of drinking a few more sips of water, and my mouth is said to be broken. ”

Wang Xuezheng sighed and pretended to be envious:

"It's better for you to be cleaner here, and you don't have so many worries."

"But I don't think you're here to enjoy purity, is there something wrong?"

"Hahaha, it seems that our previous cooperation was very good, and we have formed a tacit understanding, I came to you, there is really something wrong."

As he spoke, Wang Xuezheng's expression became serious.

"First of all, the National Academy of Sciences has decided to remove your title of fifth-level senior engineer and co-opt you as an academician of the National Academy of Sciences and an academician of the National Academy of Engineering, and enjoy two academician allowances."

"Oh!" Qin Ran behaved very flatly, as if this kind of thing was not enough to cause him to have emotional fluctuations.

"You! It's too indifferent to fame and fortune. Wang Xuezheng sighed helplessly, "That's a double academician, do you know how many double academicians there have been in our country over the past hundred years?" 34, only 34, now plus you, 35. What an honor this is, aren't you excited? ”

"Where's the excitement?"

"Huh!" Wang Xuezheng was speechless for a moment, "Forget it, I'll talk about the second thing!" ”

Straightening his voice, Wang Xuezheng continued: "The state has decided to convene the 156th session of the affairs meeting in five days, and the high-level officials have asked you to participate. ”

"Want me to participate? Could it be that the meeting will discuss the matter of mechas? ”

"Definitely!" Wang Xuezheng slapped his thigh, "The main content of this meeting is to discuss the development direction of mechas, is it reasonable for you, the father of mechas, not to be present?" ”

"The father of mechas? What the hell? Qin Ran was a little confused.

Wang Xuezheng laughed: "You don't know yet, you are now known as the father of mechas." ”

"Huh!" Qin Ran couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, how could he become the father of mecha in a daze.

Wang Xuezheng stared at Qin Ran, suddenly sighed, and said earnestly: "Qin Gong, you have become the father of mechas, and the mother of mechas has not yet been settled, shouldn't you think about personal problems?" You're 31 years old, and at your age, my son is in the fifth grade of elementary school. ”

"What's with what? Leader Wang, are you off topic? Aren't we discussing a meeting, and I haven't answered the question of whether you go or not, so why is it a personal issue? ”

Wang Xuezheng glanced at Qin Ran: "You don't want to go?" ”

"I'm definitely going!"

This meeting is obviously related to the development path of the mecha in the future, and it is related to the future of the mecha, how can Qin Ran be absent.

"That's it!" Wang Xuezheng took it for granted, and then continued: "Let's continue to talk about your personal problems, I think it's okay, Li Xueting's girl is very good, and she is a good match for you....."

"Wait!" Before Wang Xuezheng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Ran, "Leader Wang, your third thing is not to help someone say that you are here." ”

"Huh!" Wang Xuezheng found the right entry point and organized the language for a long time, but he was blocked by Qin Ran in an instant.
