Chapter 219 Absolute strength brings absolute confidence! This battle will definitely win!

"Mr. Chiji Fox, what should we do next? Can this place really protect our safety...!"

Jillian had never seen such a scene before. In the past, she always sat comfortably in the studio and reported on various news.

I rarely go out on special trips to do field work or live interviews.

"Don't worry, judging from the current situation, nothing serious should happen to us."

Unlike the slightly nervous Gillian and William Cage, Qiansihu's reaction was very calm. He continued to lead the two towards the cruiser.

"Although I don't know what happened exactly, we are in a shipyard after all. We can enter the cruiser as a temporary shelter."

"Everyone, please come with me."

After all, Qiansihu was a senior engineer who had worked on the scientific hub megastructure for a period of time and had also participated in the reconstruction of Earth 001 "The Netherworld".

Therefore, when faced with such sudden events, he was still able to remain calm and make the most appropriate decision immediately. Now hiding in the cruiser is the best choice at the moment.

"it is good!"

Gillian and others responded hastily, and then everyone walked quickly towards the landing hatch of the cruiser, while Mike did not forget to do his own filming.

They didn't come here for sightseeing. The sudden incident at this moment was both dangerous and a great opportunity to become popular!
If they can fully record the accident at this moment and make the exclusive interview of N54 News a big hit, they will definitely be promoted and get a raise when they return!
Seeing that Mike was still busy with his filming, Qiansihu on the side didn't know what to say.

Because they have exclusive interview rights and have obtained permission from the department, this interview is to show the strength of the giant company to the human compatriots on Earth 003 "Edge of Tomorrow".

So Qiansihu simply ignored Mike's actions.

Soon, everyone trotted to the hatch of the cruiser, and then with the help of two security guards, they entered the spacious and bright interior of the cruiser.

The internal area of ​​the cruiser is quite large. Although it does not have an ecological self-circulating system like the Endless class, it still has all the necessary survival functions.

Immediately, under the leadership of Qiansihu, everyone entered the rest area of ​​the cruiser.

The space here is relatively spacious and has various entertainment venues, such as the Mewtwo Club, cinemas, arcades and other areas.

This allows sailors on board to relax and pass the time while sailing or after work.

However, there were not many navy personnel working on this cruiser, less than 30% of the usual number, so the atmosphere on the ship was a little deserted.

After a while, everyone returned to their seats and waited patiently for the next broadcast announcement.

Mike continued to point the camera outside the cabin to film the scene outside.

Through the camera, netizens who were closely following the live broadcast also learned about the sudden incident here.

Seeing that the lunar base had entered a state of emergency, everyone began to speculate what had happened. Some said the base was about to explode, while others said it was a rebel riot.

What's more, some people say that this place was invaded by alien civilization, just like the mimicry species three years ago!
While netizens were arguing, air raid sirens also sounded from the city of Nairobi below the space elevator.

When the shrill and clear alarm sounded throughout the city, the soldiers on patrol and the employees at work all stopped in confusion.

"What's going on? Which department or unit had the accident?"

"That's unlikely. What kind of accident would it take to set off the alarm?"

"We haven't received any notification from above. Could it be that there is an alien invasion?"

"..."

A team of ordinary soldiers who were patrolling the block suddenly caught a glimpse of the giant screen in Times Square, which switched from playing advertisements to an urgent live broadcast!

At the same time, dozens of Skyhawk shuttles were rapidly passing over the sky of Nerohua. Even without saying anything about this scene, many people knew that war was about to come!
Just when countless people were confused, all public holographic screens on the earth in 003 "Edge of Tomorrow", as well as advertising screens in various regions, were connected to the signal of the global giant company.

The next second, Li Ang, who was far away in the Paris headquarters area, was already giving a global live speech in the conference hall.

Unlike the crowd who were unaware of the truth and looked nervous, Li Ang, who had been fully prepared, seemed very calm at this moment, and even his tone was as steady as always.

"Everyone, I'm Li Ang, the CEO of Universal Corporation."

After a brief self-introduction and a basic explanation of the situation, Leon announced to all mankind the truth about the coming of the Harvester civilization.

“Peace has always been a scarce commodity, and survival has always been the top priority for the development of civilization.”

"Today we will face the threat of invasion from another civilization. This is the first time that the Cosmic Corporation will fight on its own territory."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ang switched the screen to the lunar base, and then to the deep space of the universe, a star field somewhere in the solar system.

Then, the image on the screen began to zoom in and out until a celestial spacecraft that looked like a disk but was extremely large appeared.

Everyone’s first reaction was to think it was a flying disc or something, but they soon realized that it was a spaceship from an alien civilization!

At this moment, passers-by and patrolling soldiers who were watching the speech in Times Square could no longer hold their breath.

They had just ended the war and escaped from the shadow of simulated death, but how come an alien civilization suddenly appeared?

Was the coordinate system information of the Earth transmitted by some bastard? Why do aliens keep coming to colonize the Earth?

Just as everyone had different expressions and was worried, the picture on the holographic screen was switched back, and Li Ang continued to speak in front of the camera:

"As you can see, according to the real-time images taken by the satellite sentry station ahead of us, this incoming flying object is 800 kilometers long and nearly 600 kilometers wide."

"The object is one-quarter the size of the moon and is the largest flying object we have ever seen."

"In addition, the object is moving towards the Earth at a speed of 450 million kilometers per hour and is expected to make contact with the Earth in 72 hours."

"..."

After talking about the situation of the enemy spacecraft, Leon revealed some information about the "Harvester Civilization" to the public and made a simple comparison of the strength gap between the two sides.

After learning that the fleet of the Universal Corporation was fully capable of completing the interception mission before this spacecraft reached the lunar base or the earth.

Countless 003 Earthlings suddenly burst into loud excitement. It turned out that the world's giant companies had already made preparations, which is why they had developed Earth's technology in the past few years!

The number of Infinity-class warships that have arrived at Earth in 003 "Edge of Tomorrow" has reached 20, which is more than enough for human forces to annihilate the invading enemy.

Humans on Earth who were far away in several other parallel universes also cheered when they saw Li Ang's live speech.

Especially the humans in Ideal City, as the universal city and the birthplace of giant enterprises, they support the giant enterprise and all the decisions of Leon more than anyone else.

At this moment, Li Ang, who is in the lobby on the top floor of a giant company's branch in the Paris headquarters area, is facing the camera.

In addition to the filming team that had already been prepared, there were also many senior executives from various departments of the giant company, waiting for Li Ang's next instructions at any time.

"The giant company will dispatch 10 Infinity-class ships to surround this flying object. It is expected that this interception and blocking battle will be completed within 48 hours."

"In the coming days, please continue with your daily work. Of course, you can also visit the official website of the giant company in your spare time to follow this interstellar war."

"Since its establishment, the Universal Corporation has never been defeated or suffered losses at the hands of any alien heretics. You can always trust the powerful fleet and outstanding warriors of the Universal Corporation."

"This is the Universal Corporation. All alien heretics will be purified by us!"

Throughout Li Ang's speech, there was no heavy tone, no tense atmosphere, and no pretentious and emotional mobilization.

Some people only have an extremely calm and resolute attitude. The world's giant companies will never complain to any employees about the impending disaster of human civilization.

It will only explain the decisions that the giant companies will make next and what kind of victory humanity is about to usher in!
Human beings from all over the world just lie in their homes and watch this interstellar war between two civilizations safely.

Absolute power brings absolute confidence. This should have been a heavy and serious speech.

But under Leon's call and exaggeration, it became an expedition of a giant enterprise to fight against the alien heretics, with only the confidence to despise everything.

It seems that the party that is about to be colonized is not the human civilization here, but the upcoming Reaper civilization!
As soon as he finished speaking, the live broadcast of Li Ang's speech was switched to the channel of Global Times, and the next live broadcast task was handed over to Stanley.

At the same time, the alarm that had been sounding just now had been shut down, and the previous alarm seemed to be just a simple reminder.

It was like saying to all of humanity: [Everyone, please pay attention. Next, please pay attention to the live broadcast of the Universal Corporation beating up the Reaper civilization! ]

On this side, Li Ang, who had completed his speech, came to the office alone with a group of senior executives to prepare the next action plan.

Although he stated in front of the camera that the enemy this time was vulnerable, he still had to make sufficient preparations for the battle.

Even a lion uses all its strength to fight a rabbit, let alone the Reaper civilization that has mastered the technology of faster-than-light travel.

Not long after, V, Li De and others, who received the emergency transfer order, quickly arrived at the office hall with heavy footsteps.

Here, several senior Astartes officers, who were about three meters tall, came to Leon and stood straight together.

Looking at V, who was in the lead, wearing a heavy MarkX power armor and standing in the hall with a resolute and calm expression, Leon couldn't help but feel as if he was in another world for a moment.

Thinking back to when he first met V, the guy was still a poor fellow who was nearly killed by the Relic chip, running around all day just to survive.

But now, V has not only become the chapter leader of the "Iron Hands" Astartes Legion and the head of the marketing department of a giant company, but also the first warrior in history to reach the "Primaris".

Seeing the former down-and-out wanderer transformed into such a big "tin can", Li Ang couldn't help but shout in his heart: "Hah! You've grown up."

I have to say, genetic seeds are good, and having cheats is good!

"Boss, you called us here because you want me to lead the team to raid the ships of the Reaper Civilization?" Before Leon could speak in person, V volunteered very consciously. He knew very well that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

Moreover, in the recent period, he has been on the headlines of hot searches many times because of the news that he has become an Astartes "Primaris" warrior.

He has the appearance, but he should also shoulder the due responsibilities!

"Yes."

Li Ang nodded. How could a trusted member like V, who was so sensible and willing to focus on work, not be valued by him?

This time, Leon, who had made sufficient preparations, decided to leave this opportunity to show off and establish merit to V and a group of young Astartes warriors.

"I have equipped you with anti-Hulk armor this time. I hope you can crush the attacking heretics and capture the giant ship."

Li Ang didn't waste any words with V. All he had to do was give orders, and all V had to do was to execute his instructions perfectly and then come back to collect the reward.

"However, for this operation, Li De and Jack can only serve as your reserve team. The regular team members you will lead are a group of young warriors who are not very experienced."

The young warriors that Leon mentioned were the young group headed by David, who were the representative officers of the younger generation of the giant company.

David Martinez has good abilities and qualifications, but he lacks some more significant achievements. This action is a good opportunity for him to train.

Hearing this, V, who has high emotional intelligence and IQ, immediately understood what his leader meant. Li Ang was going to promote him to a higher level management position!

If we were to say who is the most powerful among the world's giant companies, it would of course be V, who has gathered the essence of gene seeds and prosthetic transformation.

But no matter how good V is at fighting, he will eventually have to step into the management level of a giant company and rule over a star region.

As a veteran of the regiment, it is time for him to hand over the fighting tasks to younger warriors.

This time, Leon asked V to lead the team personally to give David's group of young people some "gilding" experience, and this was exactly his plan!

"Yes, I understand!"

V's tone remained as firm as ever, but Leon still saw some reluctance in the other's eyes.

After all, V has long been accustomed to leading various tasks. He would definitely not be happy to be asked to take a break for a while.

"V, I know what's going on in your mind."

Leon smiled and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window beside the hall. He looked into the distance, watching the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the ancient city of Paris.

Then, his voice echoed in the hall:
"The world's giant companies need to maintain a smooth flow of talent. Everyone has the opportunity to change their destiny, and the ladder of advancement is always ready for young people."

"It all depends on whether they have the courage and are willing to sacrifice everything for the giant company, using their blood and loyalty in exchange for honor and reward."

"V, do you remember the first mission I gave you?"

"of course I remember."

V nodded. How could he not remember his past? Everyone’s path here is always covered with thorns, but when they look back, it will be full of bright flowers.

V remembers how he went from being a poor Badlands wanderer to the honored Astartes "Primaris Warrior" he is today.

In addition to extraordinary courage and fighting talent, it is also the determination to grasp every progress!

Giant companies are like ruthless merit-exchanging machines. Every sacrifice V makes will always be rewarded with due rewards and merits.

This is also the real reason why V is always willing to stay in the giant company. The law of physics has the law of conservation of energy, and the law of the giant company also has the law of equivalent exchange.

Seeing that Li Ang already knew his little thoughts, V didn't say anything more.

It would be up to his boss Li Ang to decide where to move his "big can".

He just does it!
"Boss, please rest assured. I will do my best to lead those young warriors to capture that huge ship. I will also fulfill my responsibilities as the head of the chapter and ensure the safety of each of their lives."

At this moment, all the executives of the giant companies present showed surprised expressions on their faces.

Of course, they could see that Leon's move was not only to win over the hearts of the new and old Astartes warriors.

It is also a warning to the executives from other departments!
Even a veteran chapter leader like V has to give way to newcomers and make more room for young people to perform, let alone senior executives like them.

Anyone who dares to disobey will be removed from his position immediately!
This is a warning to scare the tiger!
After seeing V's perfect answer and the "performance coordination" that complemented his own, Li Ang felt very happy.

This is a truly smart person. Communication between high-level people only requires making a move and then naturally responding.

And V expressed his absolute loyalty to the giant company to Leon in his own way.

"V, I have always believed that you are a competent Chapter Master, and the Iron Hands Legion of the Universal Corporation will never be able to do without you."

Li Ang's promise was undoubtedly a sedative for V, indicating that the global giant still needed his contribution.

"Next, just lead the team and rush into the main control console of the Reaper's giant ship to take control of the situation there! Remember to pay attention to safety. I want all of you to return safely and victoriously."

Li Ang instructed with concern.

"Yes, I'm going to the moon base now."

After the conversation between the two, which was full of information, ended, V immediately left the hall with Li De and others.

As for the other executives of the giant companies, after receiving Li Ang's instructions, they all left the hall with a slightly uneasy mood.

Soon, the office hall fell into its usual tranquility again, with only Li Ang left standing silently with a determined back.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his mind immersed in memories. Leon was thinking about the various technological points of the Harvester civilization, as well as their weaknesses!
Speaking of the Reaper civilization, this heretic's style of doing things is just like the "mimicry" biological weapons they deployed. They are like a swarm of locusts passing through the galaxy, leaving no grass wherever they go.

They rely on exploiting, plundering, and invading other civilizations' resources to maintain and expand their own giant ships that are almost the size of planets. In their view, the only way to develop is to plunder!

In addition, the social system of this civilization, like mimicry, has a relatively advanced "hive consciousness", and their "queen" is the only advanced biological unit.

The Queen can control other arms through a method similar to consciousness communication to complete a series of complex command actions.

This extremely efficient administrative method, which maximizes the mobilization of internal resources, allows the entire Harvester civilization to develop rapidly.

Perhaps it won’t be long before the Harvester civilization will be able to quickly complete its self-evolution and become one of the advanced civilizations through crazy harvesting day after day and year after year.

He might even become the dictator of this dimension of the universe!
However, the weakness of this hive consciousness is also quite obvious. Once the queen dies, the remaining military units will not be able to continue fighting.

Just like the mimicked "Omega", once the leader is caught, the rest will be defeated.

It can be said that the best way to deal with heretical civilizations similar to the hive consciousness is a decapitation operation, to capture the leader first!

In the original "Independence Day", humans achieved the final victory by killing the queen of the Reaper civilization and nuking the mothership.

"We must not let these damned heretics set foot in the Earth's low-Earth orbit, or our space elevator and infrastructure will be gone!"

Li Ang thought to himself.

With the jaw-dropping size of the Reaper civilization's warships, once they approach the Earth, the gravitational field they create will cause the oceans and cities on the ground to be "uprooted."

This will cause unpredictable damage to the assets of the giant company!
So if Leon can stop it in outer space, he must not let the Reaper's warships set foot on the earth.

"By the way, should I let Song Zhaomei and other top hackers prepare the network virus this time, or should I let Francis prepare the Manticore virus..."

While carefully recalling the specific technological points of the Reaper civilization, Leon suddenly couldn't help but smile.

Because from the details shown in the original movie, the electronic virus compiled by the human operating system can actually hack into the system of the Reaper civilization!

In other words, the system of these aliens also uses binary, just like humans.

This seemingly uncomfortable and funny detail is actually because the Reaper civilization once sent a reconnaissance spacecraft to Earth.

But the spacecraft was shot down by American artillery, and American scientists obtained the network technology in the spacecraft.

And using the network technology of the Reaper civilization, the entire network system of modern humans was built.

In other words, all the network technologies currently used by humans are from the Reaper civilization, who are the originators.

This wave is about learning from the barbarians' strengths to defeat them!

"I don't know if this parallel universe has Turing, but it's almost as if it's copying the Reaper civilization by saying that binary is a copy of theirs."

Li Ang felt uncomfortable just thinking about this scene.

However, the Reaper civilization not only has a network system like humans, their ordinary motherships are actually just conventional giant ships used for interstellar reconnaissance.

But this giant ship is large enough to accommodate three billion individual units!
They also have dozens of warships with a diameter of up to 20 kilometers, which are disc-shaped "city destroyers".

It can be said that the characteristic of the Reaper civilization's giant ships is just one word: "big".

But when it comes to their largest ship, it is of course the flagship carrying the Reaper Queen!

It was a super-giant flagship with a diameter of 5,000 kilometers, which could directly trigger a gravity field and extract the core of an earth-like planet as flagship fuel.

Judging from the scale and level alone, this flagship is already comparable to the [War Moon] that Le Ang wants to redeem!
