In March 2018, a white light flashed through a long-abandoned villa in Richmond, Virginia, USA, and several figures appeared.
Tang Yu opened his eyes and found that they were still in the posture of stacking their fists together, so he looked around.
Zhou Qing also replied, walked to the coffee table, picked up an electronic clock, and blew on it. The thick dust on it was blown off, revealing the date and time displayed below. This electronic clock was slightly modified by Tang Yu.
It uses a nuclear battery and can run continuously for hundreds of years.
"It is now March 5, 2018, almost four and a half years since August 2013," Zhou Qing said.
"If the original plot is to be followed, the second half of 2018 should be the time when the fourth-generation mecha hunters have just been developed and human power has reached its peak," Tang Yu said.
"It is also a time of prosperity and decline. Starting from the appearance of the first level four Kaiju beast in December 2019, the defeat of mankind will come." Chen Gang said in a deep voice.
"I don't know if PPDC will do better than before under our guidance. Moreover, we also need to see how our seeds are growing." Tang Yu turned around and said to everyone: "Then, let's first
Let’s start with Cai Tiantong, Zhou Qing, contact Cai Tiantong and see if you can arrange a meeting.”
"Okay." Zhou Qing replied.
"Chen Gang, you should follow the original plan and take a look at the investment situation five years ago. In addition, the Guardian Group in this world also needs to be operational. I will give you a feedback after checking the situation on the base vehicle.
." Tang Yu said to Chen Gang.
"no problem."
"Zhang Ruijun, go and help Chen Gang pull up the company. Don't go see those senior officials you met in the United States unless you have to. It's no better than five years ago. We were national heroes at that time, and the heroes now should be
Those mecha pilots - 'Ranger'. So, we have almost no leverage to talk to those politicians." Tang Yu said to Zhang Ruijun again.
"Listen to you."
"Well, Kristina, let's set off now and go to Malaysia. We will collect some information from the Internet on the way." Tang Yu finally said, and he and Kristina were about to go out when suddenly the system sounded.
"The second phase of the mission of the Lanxiang Team is now released: before 2022, twenty Kaiju beasts must be eliminated, and they must be killed by the members of the Lanxiang Team. The task rewards will be calculated based on the completion. The failure penalty will be for each team member.
50,000 points will be deducted.”
Everyone was stunned.
"Wait a minute! Destroy 20 Kaiju beasts with your own hands?! Are you kidding me?! How many Kaiju beasts appear in the plot?" Zhang Ruijun shouted.
"46." Christina replied expressionlessly.
"That means we have to kill half of the Kaiju beasts? How is that possible? From 2013 to now, there have been quite a few Kaiju beasts!" Zhou Qing was no longer calm.
"There is another possibility! That is that the frequency of Kaiju Beast invasions has increased! And not only that, in order to achieve this number, a few of us must be dispersed around the world!" Tang Yu said in a deep voice.
Chen Gang looked solemn and said nothing.
"No matter what, we can't be distracted by this mission! We still perform our duties. In four years, 20 Kaiju beasts, and maybe more! We must develop a more advanced mecha than the fifth generation in the plot.
Only when powerful mechas come out!" Tang Yu clenched his fists and said loudly.
"It must be a bit of a challenge to be considered an epic mission!" Zhou Qing said eagerly: "No matter what, before my exclusive mecha hunter is developed, I'd better have a good relationship with Cai Tiantong!"
…
Over the Pacific Ocean, a Falcon 2000EX ultra-luxury private jet is flying smoothly and quickly.
Kristina was sitting on the sofa with several computers in front of her. She was browsing information from the Internet at extremely fast speeds, downloading files, filtering them and sending them to Tang Yu.
"Let me see, PPDC has still established eight bases around the world. These bases are called Shatterdome, which are where Mecha Hunters are maintained and stationed. They are in... Hong Kong, Lima, and Ankre.
Qi, Tokyo, Vladivostok, Sydney, Panama, Los Angeles." Tang Yu muttered to himself while browsing the information.
"The second-level Kaiju beast 'Kai Ke' was captured in the waters of the South China Sea. The fourth-generation mecha hunter 'Storm Crimson' piloted by the three Webster brothers set off from the Broken Top base in Hong Kong and took only five minutes.
End of the battle... After the war, the three Webster brothers were received by the country's top leaders... Ha!" Tang Yu saw a piece of news and smiled and said: "It seems that our efforts are still effective. Fourth
The first-generation mechas appeared half a year ahead of schedule, so at least at this stage, humankind’s defense is still adequate. In this case, at least the world’s economy will not collapse like in the original plot.”
"The situation is not so optimistic." Kristina said suddenly: "As you have always taught me, human beings' bad nature. In times of adversity, powerful forces will burst out, but when everything goes well, they will tear themselves apart.
The foot of the wall."
With that said, Christina sent a few more documents over.
Tang Yu's face suddenly darkened when he saw these pieces of news, "A well-known American professor claimed that the invasion of Kaiju beasts is normal and humans should get used to it. Kaiju beasts do not have the ability to destroy the world. This is all done by PPDC personnel."
A lie compiled to get more money!”
"A certain daily published an editorial saying that the fourth-generation mechas are enough to eliminate all the invading Kaiju beasts. Is it necessary to continue the development and construction of Mecha Hunters?"
"A German biological expert said that the fourth-level Kaiju beast is a joke. From a biological point of view, there is no possibility for this kind of Kaiju beast to exist, because there is no planet or environment that can accommodate such a monster!"
"Recent demonstrations broke out in London, England, accusing the Pacific coast countries of squeezing too many resources in the name of Kaiju beasts and affecting their income and quality of life. The demonstrators said that the invasion of Kaiju beasts has nothing to do with Atlantic coast countries such as the United Kingdom.
Relationship! There are also similar calls in France..."
"The president of a well-known university in China said that he will mobilize students to petition the country, suggesting that all third-generation and older mecha hunters be retired to ease economic pressure. One 'Storm Crimson' is enough to meet all defense needs..."
"Professor Yang, a well-known electromagneticist in China's SD Province, publicly stated that the electromagnetic weapon he invented can directly electrocute Kaiju beasts, and applied for a research fund of up to 20 billion RMB from the country..."
Bang! Click! The laptop was suddenly thrown to the ground and shattered into pieces. Tang Yu's face was livid, suppressing the anger in his heart, and roared: "So this is how these people ruined the situation!! Kaiju Beast can't kill it.
Do they never know the pain in front of them?! If this is what they said, who are those soldiers who fought in San Francisco five years ago?! Who the hell am I who almost carried a nuclear bomb to blow up the chrysanthemum beast?
!!!"
"One day, these people will only continue to complain about the incompetence of the government and the PPDC, and they will forget in the shortest time how they opposed the PPDC before." Kristina said expressionlessly: "So, in the shortest possible time, they will forget how they opposed the PPDC before."
In the plot of "Pacific Rim", at least half of the reason for human beings' predicament is due to their own incompetence and short-sightedness. In other words, they are themselves to blame."
