Darkness is Coming: Chapter 525 Immediately Part 1
None of the other pure waters on the table had their caps opened, but the bottle in front of Yan Wangye had bottomed out. Yan Wangye was not usually so thirsty, but he was a little nervous at this time. This was the first time he had participated in a joint meeting of this level.
In the previous internal meetings of the Far Rescue Association, even at the top-secret level, the former head of the investigation team, Jiang Tongguang, would bring Yan Wangye, the deputy head of the group. .
But this time is different. It can be seen from the changes of the participants: not only the members of the Far Rescue Association and the Council, but also the members of the 19th Bureau and the Change Control Center, and there are also some people who have never seen life. The faces are all comrades from the Ministry of State Security or the State Secret Service.
Among them, the members belonging to the far rescue club are all core high-level executives who hold real power in the club. Except for the current president Zhou Tianming, there is no second non-awakened person, and no deputy of any department. Obviously they are not qualified. If Yan Wangye hadn't become the leader of the investigation team, he would not have the right to sit here.
After drinking the bottle of water, Yan Wangye was embarrassed to get another bottle, so he had to use other methods to relieve the tension. Just like the others sitting at the conference table, Yan Wangye lit a cigarette and took a sip, as if they still had a lot of time, but everyone here knew very well that the time left for them was not enough. too much.
The second magic tide is coming. According to the historical data given by Speaker Yu, the intensity of each magic tide will far exceed the previous one until it is completely over. Speaker Yu gave warnings more than once. Compared with the second wave, the first wave that only ripped apart the cracks in space in the four big cities of Shangjing, Nandu, Tokyo, and Los Angeles was probably just a small wave.
It is said that at this critical juncture, all human beings should abandon the hatred of the past, let go of the discord among countries, nations, political opinions, religions, and beliefs, unite the front, and fight together to fight against each other, in order to try to reduce losses and leave enough living strength. To face the crises and disasters that continue to emerge in the future.
But first, there is another problem to be solved: Mutants are more terrifying enemies than Tides.
The magic tide is an external invasion. It is an enemy that can be identified at a glance. It only needs machine guns, cannons or missile gunboats to eliminate them. The mutants will cause human civilization to rot from the root and die out bit by bit. To solve them , first of all have to reluctantly remove the rotten flesh from the body, and procrastination will only make things worse.
Someone made a very interesting analogy: if all human beings are a group of people from different countries, different nationalities, with different skin colors, languages and thoughts, who are locked in a secret room and struggle to survive, then the magic tide is thrown into the The bloodthirsty tiger in the Chamber of Secrets, and the mutant is a contagious cancer.
Some people can only wait to die in the face of tigers, and some people may be hurt by tigers, but they can kill tigers soon after they react. But whether you are covered in wounds and defenseless, or Kong Wuli is fully armed, as long as you stay in this secret room, there is a possibility that you will be infected and die tragically after the disease gradually deteriorates.
People cannot see this lurking crisis with the naked eye, but they really know its existence, but they cannot determine which person or people it is really hiding in.
For those in the know, it is like a countdown to destruction hanging over their heads. The longer the time drags on, the closer the destruction is, and sometimes this countdown will be shortened rapidly due to the breakthrough made by the mutants in some aspects. The countdown numbers finally made everyone uneasy, and they sat together spontaneously, determined to find a solution.
Just, if the only one who can make waves is indifferent to this, will the others really have the ability to completely wipe out the mutants? Yan Wangye is not too optimistic about this.
The war against transformation is not the same as the war against corpses. It does not take place on the battlefield with clear swords and guns. The participants in the war are not ordinary soldiers who sacrificed as cannon fodder, but the elites of all mankind.
With the ability to learn, imitate, deceive and play with people's hearts displayed by mutants, you can always find idiots who are willing to believe in them and careerists who are willing to use each other with them, plus their set of "eternal life" and "new life". harmless coexistence" trick, they spread like cancer cells.
In Yan Wangye's view, if the current trend continues, they will eventually repeat the experience of the US military during the Vietnam War: winning every battle, but losing the entire war.
At this moment, a faint black mist floated in front of Yan Wangye's eyes, pulling Yan Wangye out of contemplation.
More and more black fog appeared in the room and flew in the same direction. It looked like a large cloud of fog was sucked into the main seat of the conference table by an air extractor.
President Yang is here.
didn't come in, but deliberately floated in as black mist and reorganized his body on the main seat.
I have to say that this scene has a very visual impact, especially for those who see it for the first time, it is even more shocking. Yan Wangye noticed that the faces of the comrades from the Ministry of State Security and the Secrecy Bureau had changed. Although they hid well, Yan Wangye still saw envy and awe in their eyes. due respect.
"In the 1430s, somewhere in East or Central Asia, someone was infected with the plague bacillus due to flea bites, which was later known as the Black Death. This plague army relied on rats and fleas to conquer Asia, Europe, North Africa, reaching the Atlantic coast in 20 years, the death toll is between 75 million and 200 million."
President Yang did not start the meeting immediately after sitting down as usual, but from his tone Yan Wangye could hear the urgency of racing against time.
"On March 5, 1520, a slave named Francisco came to Cimbo Aran, Mexico, with a smallpox virus. Ten days later, Cimbo Aran was turned into a cemetery. Eight months later, the number of people who died from smallpox in Mexico. Over eight million."
"In January 1918, the Spanish flu spread to countries around the world through the most efficient supply network on the battlefield. Within a few months, about 500 million people around the world were infected with the virus, and in less than a year, the number of people who died of the Spanish flu More than 50 million, and the First World War, which lasted for four years, was only 40 million dead."
"On July 12, 2010, the T virus broke out in the Far River, directly killing more than four million people. Seven months later, the dome disappeared, and this virus that could destroy human civilization spread to all parts of the world. Now, we are facing The greatest crisis that human civilization has ever encountered, if we cannot win, humanity will surely perish.”
"Total war, no delay!"
