Even though this was just an informal diplomatic dinner, there were still many secret conversations and whispers between the seats.
There is no media here, and all information is confidential. However, due to the loud mouths of politicians in some countries' representative systems of government, officials other than civil servants were not invited to this banquet. All diplomats, diplomats' wives, and negotiators
Assistants and even the embassy attaché are working hard to get more chips at the negotiating table in the future, because this country that just unified the Balkans not long ago has given an offer that no country can refuse. Compared to the ancient
Castle, luxurious restaurants, delicious food and drinks, advanced mechanical waiters, and even more eye-catching are the images mapped by the high-resolution holographic projector in the center of the hall.
This image has been enhanced by light sources and algorithms, except for buildings blocked by the no-light environment. At a rough glance, it is an ordinary, even somewhat barren planet, but as the lens zooms in and the resolution
As time went on, some black man-made objects buried in the crater began to show traces - many embassy attachés focused on holographic projections, especially those objects that looked like vehicles and aircraft outside the man-made objects in the crater mountains.
Although they knew that Latovinia would not give out pictures with confidential information, those soldiers still saw some quite useful information, such as Latovinia's research results on void aircraft.
"In the Battle of New York and the Battle of London, the NATO government collected many alien warship wreckage and alien specimens through SHIELD. According to the agreement, the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council can allocate a certain proportion of samples, but according to our
As far as I know, the research on extraterrestrial materials carried out by NASA, the Pentagon and many research institutes and universities has not been made public." Regent Victor von Doom lowered his voice, but deliberately let others at the long table hear clearly.
When he spoke, the diplomats and their wives pretended to be interested in the food on the plate. "If there is no progress in basic science, then reverse engineering is nonsense, but I can assure you
, Latovinia has made long-term progress in technical sciences, including theoretical mathematics and theoretical physics. We will make these academic results public. However, the fairness of the scientific system is being challenged today. We should set up fair enough awards to commend human wisdom.
People who contribute to progress.”
"We need the right to speak in the media... This is related to public confidence and cultural confidence."
"Without verified academic results, awards will have no credibility..."
"We must consider economic benefits. People need confidence, and we must demonstrate the success of scientific research applications..."
"We need an alien colony, at least a lunar colony."
Regent Victor von Doom listened to the whispers on both sides of the long table with a smile, picked up the fruit brandy on the table and drank it slowly. This brandy is a local spirit in the Balkan Peninsula, and it is said that it can be regarded as
Medical alcohol is used to disinfect wounds. It is plum brandy brewed by a local winery specifically for the emperor after the Unification War. Among the people, this kind of alcohol is synonymous with sap robbery. It is both expensive and bad for the head. Officials from various countries present affirmed
They would not choose this kind of wine that would confuse their brains. They were still more interested in the various wines in the emperor's wine cellar.
After a while, he raised the glass and tapped it lightly with a dessert spoon. The clear sound made the diplomats who were talking privately quiet down. The regent's eyes swept across the long table and the round table. Diana Lees
Character nodded and immediately began to change the content of the holographic projector. Most importantly for some diplomats, the image showing the scientific and technological achievements of Latvinia disappeared. Diana Lister looked very young. She was wearing a black women's suit.
, the handmade classic white lace scarf used to match it looks extremely elegant. Perhaps for such a formal occasion, a female official wearing dark lipstick and black nail polish would look a bit inappropriate.
But the regent never cared about these minutiae that did not affect work efficiency. After all, there were still many untainted young officials in the entire system who truly implemented the emperor's ideals. After the unification of the Yugoslav Federation, all kinds of corruption and treason of the previous government
The trial resulted in at least half of the politicians and civil servants in the entire Yugoslav federal provincial government being imprisoned, and many young civil servants had to study and govern at the same time.
"The moon is the springboard for us to jump into the solar system and colonize other planets. The moon should have a void dock, a supply station and an orbital defense system. That is a future in-depth cooperation project, let's not mention it here... Now we have confirmed the distance of the alien threat
Humanity is not far away. As you all received before the dinner, the Yugoslav Federation is engaged in a battle to eliminate alien threats. This is a problem that all mankind should face together, but my Lord knows that the United Nations is here
They do not have the leading authority on such issues.”
He paused deliberately, and his penetrating gaze made the diplomats feel as if they were naked in front of him, and no thoughts in their hearts could be hidden. This was indeed the case. The thoughts of Regent Victor von Doom
His reading ability makes him invincible in negotiations.
"There are always politicians who exaggerate objective threats as a way for Latvinia to increase its international voice. This method may be able to deal with domestic public opinion, attack opponents, gain votes or political donations..."
The Regent smiled and waited for the tide of chuckles to subside.
Legal bribes such as political donations are an unwritten rule in a backward political system such as representative voting democracy. As for why this representative voting system is adopted, the regent has made his attitude clear to the world in a public speech on television, because
He believes that governments and politicians controlled by money-driven plutocrats do not have a long-term strategic vision and the courage to take responsibility, which will cause certain problems that can be easily solved to be infinitely magnified, causing extremely serious internal friction and social division.
However, the regent's speech this time has nothing to do with political donations.
After the Balkan Peninsula Unification War, the international community came to different conclusions about every battle that took place in the war. Some people criticized the Balkan Peninsula Unification War as being too cruel, while others believed that the war deprived certain nations of their political, military, cultural, and economic
, independence in religion and other aspects, and some people think that this war is too cruel, the emperor is too dictatorial, the current Yugoslav federal government is a military government, etc. - those who make these comments actively ignore the European powder keg of the Balkan Peninsula.
The bloodshed of hundreds of years of mutual aggression, the national interests betrayed by a corrupt government controlled by international corporations and foreign intelligence agencies. They only saw that under the rule of the emperor, the Balkan Peninsula was forcibly eradicated of culture, religion, folk customs and other dividing factors.
There is no hope that this war to eradicate hatred will bring about permanent peace.
"But the enemies in the galaxy will not stop and put down their butcher knives because of human public opinion, and human currency is of no use to alien aliens. At least, the oil exploration rights sold by the former Albanian Prime Minister for US$200,000 will not be lost.
In his hands." Regent Victor von Doom once again stated the coldest facts, but not every diplomat agreed with him. But he didn't care, the emperor had proven to the world
With military deterrence methods other than all-out nuclear war, and with a strong military base, the weak Balkans can do many things that were once impossible. "So I will share with you the alien samples of this battle, share
Our preliminary research results, for this reason, I propose to establish a joint research facility to undertake the research of all alien samples, and all data will be made public among member states."
The holographic projector changed the screen and displayed a magnificent three-dimensional architectural model in front of the diplomats.
"The emperor's ideal needs all mankind to realize it. The human race will inevitably unite as one in the future and move towards the stars and the sea from now on."
"We didn't see your leader today." A Norwegian diplomat suddenly said, "Why doesn't your leader give a televised speech on such an important matter? Is he still in good health?"
The regent glanced at him and immediately recalled the diplomat's background.
Diana List duly handed over the data pad, supplementing it with more detailed information. This diplomat has a background in the intelligence organization FVEY (Five Eyes Alliance) and the NATO Special Committee, although Norway is only a member of this intelligence system.
A second-rate role, but the diplomat's wife and her relatives run a non-governmental human rights protection organization that collects information on network operators in Norway for the US National Security Agency and the British Government Communications Headquarters.
The Norwegian diplomat's speech made several other diplomats at the dinner look at each other in tacit understanding.
Even though they attended the informal diplomatic dinner together, the regent did not let all diplomats know the relevant information. After all, the main task of the dinner was to explain the purpose of the man-made equipment seen on the moon by the astronomical observation facilities of various countries present - but
Those materials did not explain all the information about the war, nor did they mention the fact that the emperor personally set off to the battlefield. As the current Yugoslav Federation's force deterrent is more powerful than nuclear weapons, if others knew that the emperor left the country,
incident may trigger a series of political disputes and security incidents.
Even countries that have cooperated with the Yugoslav Federation in scientific research and other fields are not willing to see another break-in into the United Nations Headquarters. If you can break into the United Nations Headquarters, you can break into the government hub of any country, and then use extreme personal force to kill
All political figures and organizations collapse. This is something no one wants to see. After all, not every core government agency will arrange secret passages and tanks. Even if these things are arranged, whether they can stop the emperor is another matter.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. As an immortal, the emperor does not have the concept of disease, and aging is also unfamiliar to him." Regent Victor von Doom smiled and looked at the guests. He knew that this problem would happen sooner or later.
will come, so he doesn’t seem impatient. “Don’t think of the Immortal as a phenomenon that cannot be explained by science. It is just the end of human evolution and the final evolutionary form of human beings in the future. But now we are obviously not talking about His role in human history.
When it comes to the role He played, I can only tell you that He has already landed on the North American continent when it was still called Vinland. All of us are young people to Him."
"Don't say that, Victor. Human wisdom will not be bound by age. The short life span will help humans ignite the spark of civilization. This is the most precious spirit of the human race."
"My lord." Regent Victor von Doom deliberately bowed sharply. At this time, the diplomat, the diplomat's wife and the embassy attaché discovered that there was a giant with a noble face standing in the center of the hall, wearing gorgeous gold armor.
, a Guardsman holding the Sky Eagle flag stood beside him. The diplomats held their breath, and the brightness of the entire hall suddenly increased a lot, and the air was filled with the warm smell of sunshine. "You came at the right time,
"Regent Victor von Doom said, "I am explaining to the guests what the Immortals are, and I think the dessert goes well with the ancient story."
"I believe that the gentlemen and ladies present will have little interest in the story of an ax cleaving a skull."
