Chapter 221: Chapters 216, 217 The Era Has Changed_2
He Xingzhou explained while presenting his design ideas.
The miniaturization of the nuclear reactor was a very troublesome process, in simple terms, it was about shrinking a nuclear power plant to fit on a ship, and the difficulty could be imagined!
…
While He Xingzhou was busy researching improvements to nuclear reactor technology, the situation around the world was changing every day.
The west coast of Lantern Country, Los Angeles. It was one of the most famous cities in the world and the second-largest city in the area.
It was once known as the City of Angels, boasting industries in energy, electronics, chemicals, and marine technology, a capital of glittering and glamorous capitalism.
But at this moment, Los Angeles had become an empty city. The Zerg were attacking the city, and people had migrated to more inland areas a month ago.
Aircraft carrier fleets kept firing into the ocean; on land, all kinds of missile launchers, rocket launchers, and self-propelled artillery were bombing frantically; in the sky, anti-aircraft missile systems and fighter jet groups were also fighting the Zerg.
But even so, the insects still broke through the defense line and stormed into the bustling city.
They roamed the streets, crawled on skyscrapers, toppled artificial structures, and destroyed various facilities.
The high-rise buildings where humans once lived, bustling shopping malls, office buildings, underground parking lots, and sewers were all filled with Zerg!
“This city is finished!” Commander Jonah watched the scene with despair on his face.
“Fire!” came a weak and aged voice.
Soon after, countless missiles fell, leveling this prosperous city.
*They could never have imagined that such scenes would happen on their own land!*
Los Angeles, fell!
This news shocked the world, the full-scale attack of the Zerg made humanity unstoppable from the start, even the power of White Eagle couldn’t stop them!
In the White Eagle Country, countless people were panicking, order was chaotic.
Some took the opportunity to cause chaos, robbery, murder, arson, committing all sorts of crimes.
The wealthy found that the doomsday bunkers they had spent a fortune building were no longer safe, so they began seeking other ways to survive.
“Hurry up and donate to the Noah Science Society! We need to immigrate to the Moon and Mars!”
“Join the Ora Association, the Ora Association can save you!”
“Go to Shen Zhou, now only Shen Zhou is relatively safe in the world.”
In the high-level meeting, a new member joined.
“This is Mr. Barry, the founder of Sunbird Biotechnology Company, the greatest physiologist and biologist of the century!” introduced a general.
“Mr. Barry, do you have a way to solve our difficulties?” someone asked.
*The Zerg invasion had already left them exhausted and frazzled!*
Barry showed a confident smile, he said, “Of course, ladies and gentlemen.”
“You must have done a lot of research on the Zerg. The Zerg’s technology is superior to ours, there’s no dispute about that, right?”
The crowd nodded in agreement, they had long understood that the Zerg were more powerful than humans.
Barry continued, “Everyone might as well imagine, since human technology is not a match for the Zerg, why don’t we learn their technology?”
“We can also create biochemical weapons and cultivate a Zerg army controlled by us, giant Zerg beasts! It would be an invincible army, it will protect our continued survival on this planet, and stand at the top of the food chain!”
“Only magic can defeat magic!”
Barry’s words tempted many people, now they were throwing caution to the wind, whoever had the ability to resist the Zerg could win the support of many.
“Mr. Barry, our biotechnology is even lower than mechanical technology, how can developing biotechnology be faster than mechanical technology?” someone asked.
“That’s you, not ‘us’!” Barry smiled, “I think the intelligence department has shown you the information about me and my company.”
“As you’ve seen, our company has many optimistic supporters! And we have already achieved research results, please take a look!”
He opened a projection screen, inside were some transparent biological cultivation tanks. Inside, appeared various Zerg they had never seen before.
These creatures were different from those outside Zerg, they were very “gentle,” and could follow the breeders’ orders.
The crowd was shocked, this information had not been mentioned in the intelligence reports.
Barry smiled, “We can already create Level 5 Zerg, and are working on conquering Level 6 Zerg and higher! Through special biological control methods, they are like hounds tamed by humans, able to obey our commands!”
“Dear sirs, the era has changed, now it is the era of biochemical technology! Trust me, it can safeguard human peace!”
“If there really is such a biochemical army, we could indeed resist the Zerg!” the high-level officials were already tempted.
“Yeah, these Zerg don’t even need to consume a lot of our resources, and they grow quickly.”
“Even if they die, there’s no need to feel heartache.”
“I object!” Commander Harvey stood up, he shouted, “Everyone, have you seen that Deep Sea Giant Beast? Fought with the Zerg? The intelligence and technology of advanced Zerg are far beyond ours!”
“How can we possibly control them? Doing so is playing with fire!”
“Harvey, how dare you speak up?” someone scolded, “All the battles you’ve commanded have failed!”
“Do we have to listen to you and let the whole country be devoured by the Zerg?”
“I…” Harvey was unable to argue, he looked at Jonah.
Jonah shook his head silently, he knew that anything said now would be useless. Their failure made people no longer trust them.
Barry laughed, “I really don’t know why such failures haven’t been sent to prison! He let countless people be displaced, even devoured by the Zerg!”
“Gentlemen, there’s no time to hesitate, the Zerg are still attacking! Sunbird will help this great nation regain its glory!”
Someone asked, “What do you want?”
Barry said, “It’s simple, full cooperation, using the most resources and speed, to cultivate our biochemical army! Gentlemen, I am a human too, I only want to protect this country and civilization.”
“Besides, withdraw from the Blue Star Alliance!”
“Withdraw from the Blue Star Alliance?” the crowd was puzzled, “Why withdraw from the Blue Star Alliance?”
“The Blue Star Alliance is a completely weak and incompetent organization! It cannot resist the Zerg at all!” Barry shouted.
“And now the Blue Star Alliance is completely directed by He Xingzhou and his people, what about our status? We should lead all humanity to resist the Zerg, not let a clown point fingers!”
“I even suspect that He Xingzhou is an alien! Otherwise, where did his out-of-this-world technology come from? Although this alien claims to resist the Zerg, he never cares about our lives! His actions have already proven all this!”
“If you continue to stay in the Blue Star Alliance and believe in him! I can only regretfully tell you that Sunbird Company would have to part ways with you!”
In Barry’s mind, the insect shouted loudly, “That’s right, keep talking, these fools have already believed! That He Xingzhou is definitely our enemy, we must get rid of him!”
“Mr. Barry, your opinions are too radical, we need to think carefully.” the crowd said.
“I will only wait one day, now those wanting to cooperate with Sunbird are not just you!” Barry walked out of the conference room with confidence.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the Zerg is not something we can control!” Harvey still tried to persuade, but was cut off, “Enough, Harvey, we can no longer tolerate your incompetence and rudeness!”
“From now on, you and Jonah’s commander positions are revoked. Now, think about how to defend yourself in military court!”
Harvey walked out of the conference room, disheartened, he sighed quietly, “We’re finished!”
Jonah said nothing, he understood that when they were driven out of the conference room, these people had already leaned towards Barry.
The development was not in the least unexpected, a day later, they announced their withdrawal from the Blue Star Alliance and questioned He Xingzhou and others.
At the same time, Sunbird Biotechnology Company would become their partner, jointly developing high-tech biochemical weapons to resist the Zerg invasion.
This seemed to trigger a chain reaction, dozens more members followed suit and left the Blue Star Alliance.
Some followed the White Eagle, while others left without reason.
Intelligence reports showed that these places seemed to have given up resisting the Zerg, deciding to follow the Noah Science Society to escape into space, or join the Ora Association.
