The old man glanced at General Mike and said with some dissatisfaction: "What, Mike, what do you mean, do you want to let these people out?"
"Do you know how great this shelter plan you proposed is and how many benefits it can provide us?"
"We have finally managed to bring these people in, let them work for us wholeheartedly, and rely on us to survive...how can we let them out?"
For a moment, Michael fell into the ice cave.
He was silent for a long time, not wanting to speak anymore, but remembering the looks that the security personnel and servants looked at him, and remembering his solemn promise, he couldn't help but sigh: "But now the sea water has receded, whether we want it or not,
The disaster is over and people are completely free to leave..."
"Free to leave?" The old man snorted coldly: "Haha, free to leave?"
"Here, we are the masters!"
"So what if the sea recedes? Do you still want to leave freely without our permission? Have we agreed?"
Mike was stunned: "What do you mean!"
"It's very simple. We control the only passage to the outside. Even if the sea water recedes, no one inside knows what is going on outside!"
"They have to believe whatever we say!"
"We control everything here, including their thoughts!"
"In other words, we hold the truth!"
Finished.
"Mr. Murdoch." The old man glanced at a chubby middle-aged man and said with a smile: "Mobilize all your media companies and let those well-known and trusted hosts to clear up those rumors."
"Don't worry," the middle-aged man stood up, "I know what to do."
For a moment, General Mike was completely stunned.
He never expected that these people would be so crazy!
He obviously proposed the underground shelter plan in order to avoid disasters and let more people survive, but...
This underground shelter has become a prison for 100 million people!
Obviously the disaster has receded and people can go out of the underground and go to the land where the sun is shining, but these people who hold the key are unwilling to let them leave, just for the greater benefit!
"Okay, the meeting is over." With the old man's words, many family representatives stood up and left.
Seeing General Mike still standing there, the old man chuckled and patted General Mike on the shoulder: "Mike, I know, you also want to bathe in the sunshine."
"After all, although we are here underground, we enjoy material conditions that are not inferior to those outside, or even better than those outside."
"However, there are some things that people really miss, such as skiing in the Alps and the warm sunshine."
"But you can rest assured that members of our consortium family can leave through the passage. After you finish the rest of your business, you can go out to ski, surf, and bask in the sun."
"After all, this underground shelter is indeed a bit dark."
Mike suppressed his thoughts and nodded with a smile: "Thank you, father. I just want to go out and have a look recently."
The old man smiled: "Well, but now... you should go to the interrogation first. Those three guys are not easy to get in, so it depends on your methods."
"Besides, I also believe that you will definitely get a correct result."
After the old man finished speaking, he turned and left.
Mike turned and walked out the door.
And the other side.
"call."
Lin Fan yawned and sat up from the bed in a daze.
I have to say, this sleep was as sweet as ever.
"The sea level has dropped... At two o'clock in the afternoon, the celebration meeting will begin." Lin Fan looked at the time, suddenly remembered something, and took out his satellite phone.
Sea levels are falling. I don’t know how the European side and free countries will react.
Lin Fan was the first to call Brenda, but heard a lot of noise on the other side.
Lin Fan said: "The sea level has dropped, how is the situation over there?"
"Master!" Brenda's forced laughter came, "Thanks to Daxia, the sea level here has also dropped!"
Lin Fan smiled: "Congratulations."
"What's there to congratulate..." Brenda lost her tone, "We gave up two-thirds of the land. Even if the sea recedes, these lands..."
"Moreover, our Great Steel Wall was breached before, and countless people died in battle and drowned..."
Lin Fan sighed, and finally could only say: "Daxia will send plant experts and medical personnel to help you with the rescue, and try to cultivate some salt-tolerant plants that can grow in saline-alkali land."
"Thank you, Master." After Brenda finished speaking, she said urgently: "No more, we are still cleaning up the mess here. Master, please hang up first."
After Brenda finished speaking, she hung up the communication.
She looked around and saw a land covered with silt. In front of her were the remains of corpses mixed in the silt. Living people were stepping on the silt to rescue the wounded.
The broken Great Wall, collapsed houses.
Some corpses had their heads bitten off by sea beasts, some were drowned alive, some were still struggling in the mud, and some family members were crying bitterly while digging for corpses under collapsed houses in the mud.
For a moment, Brenda looked to the east with envy, but then she sighed, grabbed a wounded man whose leg was broken in the mud, and said, "Hold on to me!"
"boom!"
Brenda lifted the wounded man into the sky and went straight to the medical team!
In the dormitory.
Lin Fan was silent for a moment and called General Mike again.
When the call was picked up, Lin Fan went straight to the point: "Mike, the global sea level has dropped, and all your land has been flooded by sea water."
"But don't worry, Daxia and Ou Fangzheng are organizing plant experts to cultivate salt-tolerant plants. You can also..."
But what Lin Fan didn't expect was.
"No, thank you." Mike refused in a complicated tone.
"Ah?" Lin Fan was stunned for a second, unable to understand, "No, what do you mean?"
"Didn't you hear it clearly? It's not necessary." Mike sighed, "Who said that when the sea water recedes, we will return to the land and return to our former home?"
"Aren't you going back?" Lin Fan was even more confused: "Do you still like to hide underground?"
"They just like to hide underground!"
"boom!"
Mike kicked the bathroom door, "Here, they are the real masters. They can make those people work unconditionally and contribute their interests unconditionally!"
"Why did they let those people out? How could they let those people go!"
"For them, disaster is actually a God-given opportunity! The real disaster is when the disaster disappears!"
Lin Fan was completely speechless. He originally wanted the Free State to participate in the saline-alkali land restoration work, but now it seems that it is not necessary...
They didn’t even think about coming out!
Lin Fan was silent for a long time and said again: "How many people did you lose this time?"
"One million soldiers. Five hundred thousand organization members." Mike said with a bitter smile: "They used their lives to trap the gods and help the victory of this war. However, the victory they exchanged for their lives... could not let the remaining
people came out of the underground.”
"But you don't have to worry about population."
"Spurred by the consortium's fertility policy, some people have been reduced to reproductive tools. In order to survive, they have to continue to have children until they can no longer have children..."
"Under the planning of those people, after this battle ended, we actually increased our population by one million and our labor force by one million."
"Okay, hang up, I have something to do later." Mike sighed, and finally regained his senses and said: "Thank you for thinking of me at this time, and thank you, and congratulations to you, for winning on behalf of mankind.
This war against the gods."
"A hundred years from now, your names will be written in the history of mankind."
"And my names, and those guys' names... will also be written in history."
After Mike finished speaking, he signaled Paul, who was holding the phone, to hang up.
Hiding in the toilet, he looked out the window and saw people gathering in the empty shelter square outside.
Everyone looked excited and it was noisy.
"Sea levels are falling, right?"
"It must be true, the mountain is not shaking much anymore!"
"We can go out soon! The next news must announce this, otherwise we wouldn't be notified to gather here!"
"I really want to go out as soon as possible. I have tuberculosis in this dirty and humid place. My joints also have rheumatism. They hurt so much!"
"I want to drink a lot of water...the smelly purified water here makes me want to vomit!"
A man laughed and said to his friend: "Old Tonk, when you go out, come to my lawn for a barbecue and drink cold beer, just like we used to do!"
Some children who have just become sensible ask adults curiously: "Mom, what's it like outside?"
"What is sunshine? Is that feeling really warm?"
"Mom, is water really tasteless? What are barbecue and steak? Are they more delicious than nutritional blocks?"
"Did we really have a two-story house in the past? It was close to the seaside? Wouldn't it be destroyed by huge waves and sea animals?"
Above, a huge screen suddenly lit up and began to broadcast emergency news.
People fell silent instantly.
On the screen, the host who was deeply trusted by people looked serious and said in a disappointed and sad tone: "Recently, there are rumors that the sea level has dropped."
"But please believe it, that's just a rumor."
"After our survey, we found that although the gods have left, the sea level has not dropped. It is still dangerous outside and sea beasts are raging. For this reason, we have also lost three rememberers."
Behind him, special effects pictures appeared one after another. Outside the Rocky Mountains, there were still huge waves and sea beasts roaring, as if half of the world had been destroyed.
For a time, the excited crowd gathered in the square fell silent. Some people even couldn't bear the disappointment and began to cry.
On the screen, the host's eyes were also red, and he was sobbing faintly: "Please don't believe those rumors. The world outside is still dangerous."
"I know this truth is painful, and I feel pain for it."
"Our senior management is also in great pain."
"However, please believe that our senior management is working hard to find a way to solve this disaster and find a way for us to leave here as soon as possible."
"Before this, please work hard to produce more supplies, so that our senior management will not worry about supplies, so that we can go out as soon as possible!"
"Everyone, we still have hope!"
The originally excited crowd in the square became lonely, but suddenly, someone shouted loudly: "Brothers, keep working hard!"
"As long as we work hard and produce more supplies, sooner or later we will be able to go out!"
As soon as these words came out, countless people also comforted themselves by shouting: "Yes, our senior management is also thinking of ways to allow us to go out!"
"If you work overtime tonight, you must go out early!"
"Haha, Old Tangke, when you get out, I'll treat you to a beer and a barbecue on my lawn!"
Everyone seemed to be full of energy and walked towards the factory, full of hope.
The factory roared again in this dark underground. They were full of hope to get out of the underground and return to their former home, with a longing for sunshine and the good life of the past. They panted and worked in this dark underground.
In the gorgeously lit studio, the host in a suit stood up, took a glass of champagne from his assistant and moistened his throat.
On the side, Mr. Murdoch smiled and said: "Not bad, the performance is good, I almost believe it."
"From now on, your monthly salary will be, um, increased by five thousand dollars. Oh, by the way, I also have the latest water purifier here, which has been delivered to your home. Haha, behave well in the future, your
Sooner or later, my family will be able to live in a special residential area."
"Thank you, Mr. Murdoch."
The host, who has won the trust of the audience and is known for his courage to tell the truth, said with a flattering smile.
