Chapter 857: Be Prepared (please vote for the big chapter)
Mote City, Republic of Ika
In a spacious and luxurious office decorated with various statues, He Ao stood under the bright lights and looked up at the spacious floor-to-ceiling windows. The sun was covered in the sky, and scattered red light was coming from the edge of the sun.
Sprinkle, he spoke slowly,
"Are all the heads of the major branches here?"
The people crowded in the office behind him were silent for a moment when they heard this question.
They looked at each other, and there was some commotion in the crowd, as if they were hesitating how to answer He Ao's question, for fear of accidentally offending He Ao and becoming one of the corpses lying below.
"The heads of the branches near Mote City have been summoned here by Set,"
A thin young man standing at the end of the crowd spoke tremblingly. Upon hearing his voice, the crowd naturally gave way and opened a passage leading to He Ao.
The young man hesitated for a moment, then stepped onto the passage, passed through the eyes of the people on both sides that contained contempt, ridicule, and pity, walked behind He Ao, and continued,
"About 30% of the people in charge who are far away have not yet arrived."
He Ao looked back at the young man behind him. He looked to be in his mid-twenties, thin, with messy brown hair. He asked, "What's your name?"
Under He Ao's gaze, the young man lowered his head tremblingly and said slowly, "Director of the Liaison Office of the Ika Republic Branch, Como."
"Branch Liaison?"
He Ao glanced at Como's body with his spiritual consciousness. Judging from its extraordinary energy, it seemed to be a D-level body.
"He is responsible for the communication between the Mote City headquarters and various branches, sending and receiving various materials, and archiving them."
Como explained slowly.
"That is to say,"
He Ao looked at the young man in front of him, "Are you familiar with the extraordinary information of the entire Ika Republic?"
“I’ve been doing this all my life, I’m just familiar with it within the scope of my duties.”
Como nodded slightly.
"very good,"
He Ao patted his shoulder and walked forward, "Take me to the archives."
Como paused slightly and seemed a little disappointed.
Most of the people around him who were watching him lowered their gazes slightly, with a little ridicule in their eyes.
Some regrets flashed in the eyes of some young and middle-aged people at the end of the crowd whose clothes were obviously not 'refined' enough.
He Ao had a panoramic view of it all.
At this time, the young man in front of him, Como, quickly adjusted. He looked at He Ao and nodded, "Follow me."
He Ao nodded, and walked with him through the passage that the crowd had just made, and walked towards the door of the office.
The surrounding space was surprisingly quiet, with only Jamies standing calmly in his original position, watching everyone in the office.
"correct,"
When he was about to reach the door, He Ao looked up at Como and asked casually, "Are you from a consortium family in the Republic of Ika?"
"ah?"
Como was stunned and didn't know why He Ao asked this. He had to answer carefully, "No, my parents are just ordinary citizens of Mote City. My father works in an electric power factory and my mother is a housekeeper. Our ancestors
They have been ordinary people for generations.”
If he hadn't been accidentally sucked into the ruins and gained extraordinary power, he would be working in the factory now.
"Are there many like you here at World Tree?"
He Ao continued to ask.
"I have many colleagues who are like this."
Como subconsciously scanned the surrounding people standing on the edge.
"very good,"
He Ao patted him on the shoulder, "From now on, you are the person in charge of Mote City."
"ah!?"
Como was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed with ecstasy, and then he immediately spoke, stammering in an unbelievable tone, "I...you..."
Those who were originally standing at the end of the crowd also raised their eyes slightly and looked at Como and He Ao, with an inexplicable look flashing in their eyes.
However, He Ao didn't seem to notice the changes in the office. Instead, he raised his hand to stop the incoherent Como, and then glanced at Jamies and everyone behind him.
"Jamis, I'll leave these people to you. Within two hours, I need all the intelligence from each branch on the extraordinary disappearance case in the past six months, as well as the evacuation plan for each city."
After that, he took Como directly out of the office door.
"Everyone, did you all hear it?"
Jamis closed his hands and stood in front of everyone and stared at everyone, "I think you all should have a lot of ideas now, but now the bloody sun does not leave us time to express our ideas,"
He took out a list from his arms. This was the list of people that He Ao had called out from the World Tree database before. Bright lights shone on his face, and the obscured dark sun with little red light hung high in the sky.
behind him,
"Now, in order to facilitate the implementation of He Department's orders, we are divided into groups first. The person whose name I read is the group leader, David..."
"exist!"
A middle-aged man came out from deep in the crowd.
"Kovo..."
"exist!"
······
As the names were read out one by one, the heads of each branch standing in the office gradually discovered that most of the people listed were 'marginal figures' who had been in marginalized areas, or who had not been reused in marginalized departments.
They are all people who stand at the end of the crowd, covered by the shadow of the crowd. Most of their families are not good, and they are not put in a high position by Set. Their parents and family members are still in the Blood Sun area at this moment.
And now, they stand at the center of the spotlight.
At this moment, everyone understood that the young 'Mr. He Ao' just now was not only asking questions, but also using these questions to distinguish their internal 'groups'.
Distinguish who is valuable to win over and who cannot be hired.
The change of power happened silently. In this very short period of time, a new power structure was established that could temporarily serve Mr. Ho.
After reading the name, James looked at the 'group leaders' standing in front of him.
These people whose relatives are within the scope of the Blood Sun are different from those confidants of Set whose relatives and property are suspected to have been sent to the Blood Sun area by helicopters. They are owned by He Ao and the vast majority of ordinary people shrouded in the Blood Sun.
of common interests.
While they were executing He Ao's orders and solving the Blood Sun issue under He Ao's arrangements, they were also protecting the lives of their loved ones and their own property.
Jamies knew very well that the current arrangement had already taken shape when the 'He Department' obtained the information about the Republic of Ika from the World Tree database.
But World Tree's intelligence is really like shit. It can't even distinguish its internal factions, otherwise the 'He Department' wouldn't have spent all this time to roughly test out the groups within the organization.
However, there is no cruel and almost bloody display of authority and violence by the 'He Bu', and these people will not have a mental breakdown and show their emotions on their faces so easily.
People standing here would not know that their fate at this moment had already been decided a few hours ago when the "He" boarded the helicopter.
Jamies shrugged the tip of his nose.
He has almost become a fan of this young minister.
He took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and slowly spoke according to the core concepts and speech skills taught to him by He Ao on the plane,
"Everyone, look at the bloody sun behind my head. It is reviving rapidly. Every minute, people disappear in this city, in this country, and in this 150,000 square kilometers of land.
"I know you have many doubts in your hearts. Who do you think you are working for? For what ministry? For World Tree? Even for the research institute far away in Middle-earth?
"No! You are working for yourselves! You are working for your own property, for the houses and cars you bought with your hard work will not be burned down because of the coming of the evil god!
"It's also for the sake of your wives, children, and parents, who won't suddenly disappear amidst that disgusting phone ringtone!
"The He Department can completely ignore you, but he still comes here. You think he is violent and scary, but he is probably the only person who is willing to come here at this moment and has the ability to save you."
The part about Heao was added by Demis himself. When he said this, he stopped and glanced at the expressions of everyone in the office.
The newly promoted 'group leaders' were obviously excited when they heard these words.
And those who were standing on the edge, who were once Set's cronies, also had some emotion in their eyes. Even though most of their assets and relatives had been transferred out, the place where they stood at the moment was still their hometown.
The land where they grew.
The group of people who are most afraid of death have long since run away.
Withdrawing his gaze, Jamies continued to speak,
"Now, cheer up and do all this for yourself, for your hometown, and for the world,"
He raised his hand and took out a document from his arms, "Let's start assigning tasks now."
······
At this moment, He Ao, who has entered the archives, is, with the help of Como, retrieving all the missing case reports reported to the Mote City headquarters in the past three months.
He still had some worries in his heart, and these worries prompted him to investigate the 'traces' before the bloody sun as soon as possible.
The more information he gets on the ground, the more he can do after going to space and getting close to the transparent planet.
In principle, it is safest to start the space program after completing the ground investigation, but obviously the "bloody sun" in the sky will not give them that much time.
Judging from the observation results of the red light in the sky coming from the institute, it will take up to three days for the Blood Sun to fully 'recover'.
However, this is a recovery time calculated based on a linear approach, and it is considered that the speed of blood day recovery is constant.
In fact, once Xueri realizes that the 'resuscitation' will not really be beaten, he will inevitably speed up the recovery time tentatively in the later stage.
The remaining time for Blood Sun's recovery is likely to be only one day.
It takes time to launch a rocket and reach a transparent planet. By the time everything is investigated clearly and you can go to heaven again, I am afraid that the Blood Sun has gathered enough of the required 'ritual sacrifices' and has completely arrived. By then it will be too late.
.
This is also the opinion that 'Hao Yi' and other B-levels agreed upon after discussing it.
Although dual-line operation is not safe enough, it is the most efficient and most likely to succeed.
——
China-Turkish Satellite Launch Base
The four "Hao Yi" who had already put on their spacesuits were in the towering and huge rocket launch tower, staring at the huge rocket in front of them.
"This rocket is indeed a bit big when you look at it up close."
Jie An stared at the white rocket in front of him and sighed.
Li Cheng and Ge Ya on the side also nodded slightly.
They are about to enter the rocket.
For them, it is not difficult to dismantle the rocket and the rocket tower, but having them enter the rocket and go directly deep into space still makes them a little uneasy.
Even if their physical fitness is extremely strong and they have reached the pinnacle of humanity and can easily demolish tall buildings hundreds of meters high, they will still die without oxygen in space.
After all, they are still humans, albeit extremely powerful humans.
They are also afraid when facing the unknown and facing an environment where they may die if they are not careful.
"What's going on?"
Li Cheng found that 'Hao Yi' standing beside him had not spoken, so he asked.
"I was wondering if there was anything I missed."
He Ao reached out and tapped the helmet of his spacesuit, making a soft thumping sound.
"Um?"
Li Cheng was slightly stunned.
Ge Ya on the side also bent down and stuck her head out.
Among the four people, she was the smallest. After putting on the large space suit, any of the remaining three people would completely block her if they turned sideways.
"We should probably bring some items that might be related to this 'ritual,'"
He Ao knocked his head, and then he suddenly woke up, turned his head and looked at the staff aside, "Mobile phones, can we bring our mobile phones with us?"
The people around him didn't react for a moment, but the commentator who was supervising the preparation work seemed to have completely heard what 'Hao Yi' said.
She directly reached out her hand, pulled the researcher beside her, and repeated He Ao's words.
The researcher was blinded for a moment, then walked towards He Ao and the others, and said,
"The models of your mobile phones are not uniform. Electronic products may not be able to withstand drastic changes in temperature and radiation. We can seal and protect them, but we cannot guarantee that they can be used normally after being brought in.
"Moreover, adding items will cause the weight of the entire lander to change, and the entire orbit and fuel will have to be recalculated."
"You can take some of the food down, we don't have a high demand for food,"
He Ao asked quickly, "Do you have a mobile phone that can go into space?"
"There are several customized mobile phones for use by space station staff, but they are not adapted to the environment of the landing module,"
The researcher quickly said, "However, some protection can be done, but there is no guarantee that it will work."
"Please help us prepare six new machines to put into the landing bay, and then put our phone cards in four of them, and two are spare."
He Ao said quickly.
"Okay, we need to rearrange the supplies and make safety calculations,"
The researcher nodded, "It might take a while."
"good."
He Ao nodded.
"What's the cell phone?"
Li Cheng on the side looked at He Ao.
"The mobile phone is the 'medium' of the 'telephone', and the extraordinary power of Blood Sun seems to be related to the 'incoming call',"
He Ao turned back to look at Li Cheng and the others, and said slowly, "Be prepared."
