Looking at the countdown that was as red as blood on the big screen, the corner of Yang Tianyi's mouth outlined an arc that represented satisfaction and relief.
If nothing else, people all over the world should now know what is happening in Elysium, even if most of them don't know that this circular space station weighing tens of millions of tons is moving at an ever-increasing speed. Falling towards the earth.
The disintegration caused by the cessation of rotation and uneven distribution of gravity will turn tons and tons of metal parts into the most gorgeous meteor shower visible to the naked eye in human history.
And after that, there was destruction.
Even if the tens of thousands of tons of central main structure of the space station is reduced by the friction of the atmosphere, according to the calculations of the Star Hub, millions of tons of steel will still land steadily.
There are countless "small fragments" weighing thousands of tons and 10,000 tons. The entire North American continent of more than 20 million square kilometers will be covered by these fragments. Almost all major cities are already under the control of the North American Alliance Government. A state of emergency was entered upon request, and people who were unable to leave the city for refuge within a short period of time were gathered in subway stations and public shelters for refuge.
Faced with such an emergency situation, the leaders of various countries who originally needed to hold an online conference to discuss countermeasures just happened to save the effort of adjusting the cameras. They directly gathered at a table in the conference room where Qunxing Group showed off their cards yesterday and began to discuss the matter. What to do with a space station that's about to crash.
However, compared to the six alliance leaders with distinctive attire at the time, there are now only two. The North American and Pan-Asian leaders still wear the clothes prepared by their own country's diplomats, and the others have changed into the governor's uniforms provided by the Star Group. and cloaks, quite reminiscent of officials from various civilized empires in the world of stars.
The overall iron black and blood red colors of the clothing made the atmosphere at the conference table even more oppressive than yesterday. Especially after knowing that two-thirds of the people at the table were already half of the employees of Qunxing Group, it made the atmosphere even more oppressive. The North American and Pan-Asian leaders had the absurd feeling that they were holding an internal meeting of the Star Group.
Just when the president of the North American Alliance was about to become impatient, Yang Tianyi walked into the office wearing a leader's uniform that seemed much simpler than the governor's uniform, but actually represented the highest power, and nodded to the people who were already sitting in a circle around the conference table. He gestured to express his apology for his delay in arriving at the venue.
"I believe you all already know that a group of anti-human gangsters have hijacked Elysium and plan to crash the space station on the North American continent to achieve some ulterior motives."
Although his pretended serious face was already happy with the news of the success of the operation, considering that his acting skills at this time were related to whether the group could successfully win contracts from the two major alliances, Yang Tianyi still scored 120,000 points. Mentally, he uses strong muscle control to adjust every inch of muscle and skin on his face, trying his best to look fair and serious.
Obviously, all the leaders in the audience were very suspicious of the role played by Qunxing Group in this "accident". However, the countdown that was still beating on the screen temporarily suppressed their doubts. In this case, it would affect It is rare that humanity is united on the surface during a crisis.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although the countdown shows that there are still more than seven hours before the space station crashes, I must remind everyone that this is far beyond the optimal time for crisis management. In other words, when this countdown reaches zero, Meteor showers composed of tens of millions of tons of steel will hit every piece of land on the North American continent at several times the speed of sound, making the whole thing irreversible."
At this time, the North American Defense Minister, who was attending an online meeting thousands of miles away, suddenly brought good news to his sullen president - after it was confirmed that the civilians on the space station had been evacuated, the first batch of missiles used to intercept and destroy the space station The intercontinental missiles are ready for launch at any time.
After casting a provocative look at Yang Tianyi, who was sitting on the main seat, the president confidently issued an order to launch missiles immediately.
Through the real-time image on the big screen, everyone in the conference room could clearly see more than ten signs representing interceptor missiles leaving the earth and accelerating towards the oncoming Elysium, approaching the space station in just a few minutes. around.
Seeing that they were about to complete their mission and turn the Elysian Space into space junk that littered the Earth's orbit, all the missile logos suddenly disappeared from the screen before they reached the target. Then they looked at the North American Secretary of Defense on the edge of the big screen. With the generals' confused and slightly panicked eyes, the leaders in the conference room knew that something must have happened.
President Gu Wei secretly thought something was wrong, but he still pretended to be calm and asked: "Frank, did the missile complete its mission? Tell me the result!"
"Mr. President, the missiles were all intercepted by some kind of defense system less than ten kilometers away from the space station, so they failed to complete their mission. We are now preparing to launch the second batch of missiles."
After leaning down to study the data returned by the satellite detection equipment and the missile before it was detonated, the Minister of Defense shook his head and said regretfully that judging from the performance of the anti-missile system currently equipped on the space station, no matter how many intercontinental missiles they launch, It's the same result.
"How could this happen! Your Excellency, Chairman, does Qunxing Group have anything to explain about this?"
Seeing everyone in the conference room looking at him, Yang Tianyi pretended to be embarrassed and put his mouth to the microphone, and replied helplessly: "As you said yesterday, Mr. President, Qunxing Group is an unscrupulous enterprise with arms trade as its main source of income. , so it’s expected that Elysium Space will contribute money and our efforts, right?”
"Yes, the anti-missile system currently installed on the space station is the latest generation of red laser point defense equipment developed by our group's scientific research department. Secretary-General Delacourt of the Management Committee is obviously very far-sighted. In order to ensure defense She went to every corner outside the space station and placed an order for a hundred point defense systems from our group, tsk tsk.”
Everyone looked bitter after listening to Yang Tianyi's speech, because just yesterday, they suspected that the opponent's laser defense system was not as complete as it was boasted. This was just a means of strategic blackmail used by the Qunxing Group.
But now even the recognized technological powers have been defeated by the perfect defense system of the space station. They no longer doubt the technological strength of the Star Group that transcends the times, and they all look at Yang Tianyi with inquiring eyes.
"The Chairman also said that this is a crisis that concerns all mankind. If the space station is allowed to crash into the North American continent, the employees and assets of Qunxing Group will definitely be among the civilian casualties and destroyed facilities. But I think you He looks confident, so he must have a plan to deal with it, right?"
The Pan-Asian leader saw the North American president's face becoming more and more ugly as the countdown continued to decrease, so he laughed and made some noise - anyway, most of the space station fragments landed in North America, and even then Asia would inevitably eat some. It's a bitter experience, but the North American League will definitely be devastated by this unprecedented disaster.
After seeing the situation clearly, he had already made up his mind. Regardless of whether the Star Group had the ability to intercept the crash of the space station, he would sign the agreement on behalf of the Pan-Asian Alliance.
By then, the weaker the overall strength of the North American Alliance, the more cake Pan Asia will get. Therefore, among everyone present, he was the one who most hoped that the space station would successfully crash. As for why he wanted to speak out for North America, it was just to gain favor in front of many leaders, and by the way, let the young man who single-handedly reshaped the world structure several times shine again.
And Yang Tianyi did not disappoint everyone in the conference room - under everyone's astonished gaze, he lifted up the white cloth he was using to cover the model. When the leaders took a closer look, it turned out to be a very square ship. spaceship.
"this......"
After looking at each other, everyone was shocked. They naturally knew that it was impossible for the other party to use the model to destroy the space station. If the facts are consistent with their imagination, it seems that the Star Group is about to come up with their real trump card.
Like a spacecraft capable of space navigation?
