McKay sprayed Obrika, finally giving Obrika, who was full of anger, someone to vent to.
He was interviewed directly by n TV station.
The reporter first took out the hot topics discussed online and asked Obrica.
"Mr. President, first of all, the Internet is now very interested in the serious differences between the statement issued by the US government and the statement issued by 32 Group. We would like to know, so far, do you think the statement issued by the US government is correct, or the statement issued by 32 Group?
Is the statement issued by the group correct?"
There was an embarrassed smile on Obrika's face, and he spread his hands and said: "First of all, I must explain that the statement issued by the US government is based on the research results of the National Academy of Sciences. We received this information as soon as possible.
After that, we immediately issued an early warning to the whole world. Please pay attention to this. We are the first country in the world to issue early warning information on beast tides."
"Mr. President, do you mean that we discovered signs of the beast tide earlier than China?" the reporter immediately asked smoothly.
"It can be said that this point is quite important." Obrika nodded.
"But within the next twenty hours, the 32 Group overturned our conclusion and gave a specific time, scale and even possible landing locations."
Obrica still nodded and smiled: "Yes, we have noticed that Saner Group has given more detailed information in this regard. You know that they are a legal entity specializing in research in this area. This is not surprising.
Accident."
"So back to the topic just now, do you think the information they provided is accurate?" the reporter asked.
Obrica shrugged: "I just mentioned that they are a professional group in this area, so they are extremely credible."
"Are you saying that the information they released is correct? And ours is wrong?"
"No, no, no, I can only say that they provided more detailed information, but one thing we should note is that our US government was the first to discover signs of the beast tide, and other countries are likely to be based on our findings.
Resources were immediately invested in researching this issue, so they provided more effective information based on their expertise, and there is no argument that the information we released was wrong."
"Mr. President, are you saying that the 32 Group also conducted research on this phenomenon based on the information we provided?"
Obrica looked at the prompt word directly opposite, and then nodded: "Some people in my team think so, but I personally feel that they are also engaged in research in this area. It is possible that they already have a certain idea in their minds.
answer, but for some reasons, no warning was given to the outside world."
"Mr. President believes that the 32 Group may also know that the beast tide is approaching, but due to some reasons, it has not announced it to the outside world. Is this what you mean?"
"Yes! They may have this ability." Obrica replied with a smile, "However, this is not the topic to be discussed today."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. President. We have another question. Mr. McKay, the leader of the Elephant Party, has two questions for you. The first one is that you issued statements indiscriminately, causing damage to the image of the United States; the other side also thinks that you
You are unable to lead the American people through this crisis. What is your response to this?"
Obrica smiled slightly again. Obviously, this was the focus of his answer today.
"Mr. McKay raised two questions. Regarding the first question, issuing random statements is simply nonsense. I have just said that, as a big country that is responsible for the world, we, the United States, naturally have the responsibility to
The information we have about human life and death sends an early warning to the whole world. As for information errors, technically speaking, it is more difficult to avoid, and I do not deny this."
"But as Mr. McKay said, we know such information. Should we hide it? If we don't issue a warning, then who will pay for it when the crisis comes? Is it Mr. McKay?"
"If we do nothing because the information released in the statement is not so accurate, that would be truly irresponsible. At least we issued this warning, and people all over the world began to pay attention to and face up to this problem. We let the world
People around the world have had more time to prepare, so any accusations against the statement we issued are baseless and ridiculous."
"As for the second question, I just want to ask Mr. McKay simply, if you think that I can't lead the American people through this crisis, then what have you done, Mr. McKay? At least I went to the front line to review
We are building defense fortifications and reviewing our preventive measures. We are cooperating with some foreign professional organizations, including professional groups such as the 32 Group, with only one purpose, which is to tide over the difficulties together with the people."
"And I myself will also visit California and work with the people there to fight against these monsters. At least I won't be like Mr. McKay who, after accusing me on TV, went back to his manor the next day to have a leisurely swim.
coffee"
Obrica's interview lasted for almost more than an hour. The first half was spent responding to and countering the hot issues of the day. In the second half, he did come up with some useful information.
For example, it showed the plan of the American version of the Great Wall Project.
Shows the training scene of the emergency rapid response force specially designed to deal with the Spectral Claw monster.
He also briefly explained the defense concept of the United States to block the Spectral Claw this time, etc.
Of course, after Obrica's counterattack came out, McKay did not just admit defeat silently. He immediately left for Washington State, California, and then returned to the east coast, New York State and other coastal states to express his intention to negotiate with the local people.
together.
In addition, a bunch of celebrities were also summoned to donate money to buy equipment to resist the Ghostclaw monsters for the local people.
At the same time, he also gave an exclusive interview to refute Obrica.
While the Americans were fighting on a large scale, the Xingye completed its overhaul.
With five days left before the predicted beast tide, we set sail again.
This time, Ning Yi's target was four hundred or even five hundred nautical miles away, where there was a small island.
It is said that there is a lair of the Red Demon Dragon on the island.
And at the same time, a drone was released to detect the situation five hundred nautical miles away.
Of course, as the beast tide approaches, the number of Spectral Claw monsters gathering in the sea will definitely increase, and the danger and unpredictability will increase.
Therefore, they have also taken safety measures in case of emergencies that may arise.
For example, the staff will be streamlined again and try to avoid taking more people on the voyage.
Also, the main purpose this time is to test. Once the test and exploration are over, we will return at full speed immediately. We will not stay at sea to kill the ghostclaw monsters.
They even asked the Xingfu to be prepared. Once something goes wrong with the Xingye, the Xingfu would immediately dispatch support.
At the same time, the military was notified. If this failed, fighter planes and helicopters would be dispatched to retreat using air rescue.
After making various preparations, the Xingye set off again from Beiling Port.
Based on the experience from the last time, this time the Xingye advanced directly and quickly, and they almost skipped the first 150 nautical miles.
We only reached 150 nautical miles and began to deploy observation equipment.
Of course, although four or five days have passed, compared with four or five days ago, the offshore situation has also undergone significant changes.
There are obviously more Spectral Claw monsters, and they are also more anxious.
They even found that the same kind of ghostclaw monsters were also fighting with each other, and the scene was quite ferocious.
An adult ghost claw monster tore a small ghost claw monster into pieces and swallowed its head.
This was the first time Ning Yi encountered such a scene of cannibalism.
Moreover, this time they were attacked more than 200 times before they set sail even 200 nautical miles away.
This is the result of the Xingye's anti-collision spikes being installed.
The Xingye, which was undergoing maintenance this time, deliberately placed thick spiked anti-collision nails at some key hit locations under the ship. Once the Ghostclaw hits the battleship, the barbed anti-collision nails will most likely destroy it.
The Spectral Claw is hooked to the bottom of the boat. Once the Spectral Claw dies, it will become a natural barrier.
So along the way, there were already six or seven Ghostclaw monsters that hit the anti-collision spikes and became part of the battleship, becoming the outer armor of the bottom of the ship.
But in this case, there are still ghostclaw monsters that are constantly jumping up to seek death.
It can also be seen that although on the surface it looks calm offshore, the open sea has actually turned into a pot of boiling water.
Under the harassment of the Spectral Claw monster, the battleship sailed to 200 nautical miles at a speed of twenty-five knots, and then reached the sea area it reached last time.
Comparing it with last time, the number of Spectral Claw monsters in the sea has also increased by at least three times.
The sound of clanging is endless.
There were almost twenty Ghostclaw monsters hung under the ship, and the weight of the ship increased by nearly sixty tons for no reason.
Fortunately, this possibility was thought of in advance, and the Xingye, which had some unnecessary weapons and equipment removed, was also very powerful, so it had no impact on the speed.
Soon, the battleship broke through to 300 nautical miles.
At this time, we started to release the drone and conduct reconnaissance while letting the drone drop detectors into the sea area 500 nautical miles away.
By now, the ghostclaw monsters in the sea seemed to be tired and no longer bothered the Xingye.
But of course, there are already a bunch of ghostclaw monsters hanging on the bottom of the battleship, and they can't do anything if they want to.
The only trouble is that the route is somewhat irregular due to the presence of the Spectral Claw monster under the boat.
It wasn't until they reached about 320 nautical miles that the Red Demonic Dragon finally appeared.
The detection radar quickly discovered that a large group of red dragons were heading straight towards the sea area where the Xingye was located. The number ranged from thirty to forty.
Based on the direction in which they flew, it can be basically judged that this group of monsters probably came from the Gonghu Islands.
It is one of the important lairs of the Red Demon Dragon.
The US military and the Chinese state once used short- and medium-range missiles to attack the shrimp island attached to Gonghu Island, but the effect was not obvious.
Looking at the formation of the Red Devil Dragon, the target should be directly aimed at the Xingye.
But this is not surprising. The Xingye is now only forty or fifty nautical miles away from Xiashi Island. It would be normal if those monsters were alert.
Ning Yi went to sea this time, aiming directly at the Gonghu Islands.
The area of Gonghu Island is similar to that of Linglan Island, and one of its affiliated islands is called Yinliang Island, which happens to be somewhat similar to the Anshi Islands.
So this time, it can be said that Ning Yi regarded it as an exercise to learn how to land on the island.
Especially if there are ghostclaws in the sea.
Yinliang Island has a port and an airport, but it has been abandoned for a long time.
Therefore, it is only a few hundred meters away from the island, and the battleship cannot get any closer.
With a distance of almost two hundred meters, Ning Yi could only rely on his own abilities or speedboat to reach the island.
With Ning Yi's ability, he could fly over a distance of two hundred meters using air control without taking a breath, without any pressure, let alone stepping on the sea.
But of course, considering that the island is one of the lairs of the Red Demonic Dragon, Ning Yi did not dare to let the battleship get too close.
And now, those monsters are even actively attacking the Xingye.
Judging from the size of thirty or forty, it is almost half of the red dragons in the archipelago that Gong Hu speculated.
If you kill them or scare them away, it will be of great help for the next landing on the island.
Today's Xingye sailed at around four in the morning. After more than ten hours of sailing, it was only evening and the visibility in the sky was still quite high. Soon, the Red Demonic Dragon appeared in sight.
And they actually formed a formation, a wild goose shape.
When the distance was still about a thousand meters, the captain followed Ning Yi's request and ordered to open fire.
Today I am not here to kill the red demon dragon. I will disperse it if I can.
Four phalanxes bombarded the target simultaneously.
Soon, through the telescope observation, Ning Yi discovered that although the Red Devil Dragon's dodge movements were extremely fast, the attack firepower was too fierce, and at least three or four Red Devil Dragons were hit.
One of the red demon dragons was hit by nearly twenty or thirty shells in an instant, and was accurately hit on the head, causing it to fall from the air.
The other dense formations of red dragons suddenly dispersed and fled in all directions, probably looking for the source of the attack.
Next, the Phalanx controlled the speed of shooting and began to harass and attack with burst fire.
After fighting for a few rounds and injuring at least seven or eight red dragons, these monsters dispersed.
But before Ning Yi and the others could celebrate in a hurry, the scattered red dragons slowly approached the Xingye from all directions.
As a last resort, Phalanx began to launch powerful attacks again.
After knocking down the three red demon dragons, the group of monsters finally howled and left.
However, the Xingye was also attacked by the red demon dragon's roar.
The search radar on one side was damaged, one optical sensor failed, and the bridge glass was shattered. An observer and a third officer were slightly injured.
Of course, after paying these prices, those red dragons finally no longer came to die needlessly.
After walking in circles outside the Phalanx's range for several times, he finally left in frustration.
But looking at the direction in which they fled, there is no doubt that they went directly to the Gonghu Islands. (To be continued.)
