You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 149
Chapter 149: Who Launched The Missile?
“Next, let’s attack Europe first, then take China! ”
On the Pacific Ocean Floor, at the Military Headquarters meeting, the Ghost Commander was arguing with a group of high-ranking Ghost Race officials.
“Once the Lords awaken, the mere Human Race will be nothing more than playthings in our hands! ”
The Ghost Commander laughed: “Lord Thunder’s injuries are almost healed, and the awakening of the other Lords is just a matter of a few years… I can say with full responsibility that within five years, the Human Race will be annihilated! ”
“I hope so. ”
The Minister of Science and Technology said: “The Human Race’s technological development speed is too fast, almost the same as ours. Remember, they are creating, while we are reviving. This speed…”
“You have the nerve to say that! ”
The Minister of Finance glanced at him: “In the last two years, half of the Ghost Race’s annual funds have gone to your Military Headquarters and the Ministry of Science and Technology, yet your speed still can’t surpass theirs. How dare you say that? ”
“No, it’s mainly that… the Human Race’s technological speed is too strange! ”
The Minister of Science and Technology quickly said: “Our people have investigated. Two years ago, their civilization level was only 0. 7. But in these two years, their weapons have reached a level above 1! Is this a speed that normal people can achieve? ”
Two years, from 0. 7 to 1.
It doesn’t seem much, but what if we compare it to the past?
Humanity previously developed for over a million years, and their civilization level was only 0. 7!
“Recently, our people have also obtained intelligence. ”
The Central Asia Commander-in-Chief said: “The rapid development of the Human Race’s technology is all because of someone called Su Qin’an. ”
Speaking of the Central Asia Commander-in-Chief, he’s also a tragic figure.
He was doing well as a commander, but one night, just as he was about to find a female ghost to bond with and engage in some couple’s fitness activities, the door was kicked open.
Before he could yell, two ghosts were killed together, afflicted by the Zhenlong Seal.
So now, he is a person of the Human Race… a ghost of the Human Race!
“Su Qin’an… I’ve heard of him. ”
The West Asia Commander-in-Chief said: “It is said that he is a Huaxia Academician, and most of Huaxia’s technological products are his ideas. It can be said that he alone has advanced the entire Human Race’s technology by one or two centuries. ”
This fellow is also a tragic figure, and even more so than the Central Asia Commander-in-Chief.
He received a message from the Central Asia Commander-in-Chief, inviting him to the Central Asia War Zone for an exchange, so he rushed over.
That night, while he was having dinner, three people suddenly broke in and quickly took him down.
So now he has also become a ghost of the Human Race.
“Su Qin’an, huh…”
The High Priest sneered: “Just a Human Race person! If it doesn’t work, just execute them! ”
“That, we can’t currently enter the dis…”
“Boom! ”
Before the Minister of Science and Technology finished speaking, the Pacific Ocean suddenly became turbulent again, with waves four to five meters high, and even signs of a tsunami.
A large number of depth charges and DF Missiles suddenly flew into the seabed, exploding underwater.
Although they didn’t hit the Ghost Race high-ranking officials, it did startle them.
“Damn Human Race, launching a sneak attack! ”
The Ghost Commander immediately reacted, slammed his fist on the table, and immediately ran out: “Good! I was worried they wouldn’t come out! This time, they dare to come, none of them will leave alive! ”
Five minutes later…
The ghosts watched the Ghost Commander fly back, lost in thought.
“Damn it, I ran into a missile right after I went out! ”
The Ghost Commander, covered in dust and dirt, wiped his face and took out something that looked like a walkie-talkie: “Set up defenses! Counterattack! I’ll be there soon! ”
After three rounds of DF Missiles, the charge sounded, and hundreds of warships appeared in the East Sea and South China Sea, heading towards the Pacific Ocean, and occasionally launching missiles and bombs, stirring up waves in the water.
Under the sea, over a hundred nuclear submarines were ready, silently advancing forward.
In the air, there were countless fighter jets circling, continuously carrying out carpet bombing of the Pacific Ocean.
In space, the space-based weapons satellites had locked onto the Pacific Ocean surface, ready to launch laser strikes as soon as a target appeared.
It can be said that except for the army, China has used all other available troops.
And without exception, they were all ghosts.
“Damn it, aim your missiles better! My ship is about to capsize! ”
“Who’s piloting that plane! Why are you shooting at your own ghosts! Can you aim properly! Don’t shoot at the children’s table! ”
“Hey! My plane is out of fuel! Can someone stop so I can refuel! ”
Hearing these shouts, Su Qin’an twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling like he had gathered a bunch of fake soldiers to fight a war.
After a round of suppression, a large number of fleets finally emerged on the Pacific Ocean, with oddly shaped black flags hanging from their warships.
Obviously, when they saw the Ghost Race warships in Chinese waters, they felt a sense of intellectual inferiority.
Then, they started communicating in the Ghost Race language.
“Brothers on the opposite side! Are you the great Ghost Race people! ”
“Yes, and you? ”
“We are too! ”
“Great, since we are both Ghost Race armies, let’s fight together and destroy China, how about that! ”
“Excellent! ”
The Ghost Race commander standing on the east side felt that the people on the opposite side were strange, their speech seemed to carry the refined air of the Human Race, making him feel very uncomfortable.
But the Ghost Race identity was impossible to fake, so he didn’t say anything, thinking that these people had been in contact with the Human Race for too long and had become foolish.
“Stop chatting! ”
The commander shouted: “Who launched the missiles just now! ”
“Ah? Missiles? What missiles? ”
The Huaxia Ghost Race shook their heads: “We don’t know! ”
The commander keenly sensed something was wrong: “Faking ignorance! ”
“No! ”
The leader of the Huaxia Ghost Race quickly said: “We are acting under the Ghost Commander’s orders, and have been lurking in the Indian Ocean, so we don’t know about the Pacific Ocean situation! ”
“Alright, I hope so. ”
The commander nodded: “Then let’s attack! The Human Race dares to attack us, we cannot let them off easily! We must teach them a lesson! ”
He said this for a reason.
There has always been discord within the Ghost Race Military Headquarters, divided into several factions.
The commander himself belongs to the North American Commander-in-Chief’s faction, while those ghosts on the opposite side…
Since they are lurking under the Ghost Commander’s orders, they must be from the Ghost Commander’s faction.
The two factions have been at odds for a long time, but because of face, and the common enemy, the Human Race, they have not openly clashed.
Now…
Since they are so close to the Human Race, leading the charge should be no problem, right?
Couldn’t this be a chance to weaken the Ghost Commander’s influence?
The struggle between the major factions in the Military Headquarters largely depends on military power. The more troops you have, the greater your influence.
Previously, the Ghost Commander held absolute power in the Military Headquarters largely because he controlled nearly 60% of the troops, and his command ability was excellent, with almost no defeats.
“We’ve been underwater for too long, and our weapons are a bit waterlogged, we’re afraid they can’t be repaired for a while! ”
The Huaxia ghosts weren’t idiots, and immediately understood the commander’s meaning: “How about Commander-in-Chief providing some personnel and weapons to help us attack? ”
