Chapter 1351: Hope?
Above low Earth orbit, the space station that rapidly circles the Earth at kilometers per second is slowly drifting over the Asian continent.
Floating in space, the forty-two thousand six hundred satellites of the autonomous constellation resemble a giant net passing beneath the space station.
The silvery-white satellites, like silent eyes, blink red light in silence, gazing at this blue planet, gazing at the thirty storms that suddenly appear.
"Deng Xiang!? What's wrong with you, Deng Xiang!?"
"What happened! What's going on down there!?"
Inside the quiet space station, Xuanhai City, which drifts in and out, anxiously cried out.
Just a few seconds ago, he saw the storm forming; afterward, Deng Xiang on the electronic screen seemed to freeze, as if he had witnessed some desperate fear.
Until now, no matter how he calls, this young researcher remains frozen on the electronic screen.
That flickering, like a bad pixel, indicates that Deng Xiang is now even more fearful than before.
He doesn't know what Deng Xiang actually saw or heard.
But he knows that it must be an unimaginably huge disaster!
"It's a dirty bomb..."
"That's actually a dirty bomb!?"
Like a distorted electronic signal, Deng Xiang, parasitic in the electronic circuitry, suddenly came to his senses, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
Under intense emotional fluctuations, his five senses became somewhat distorted.
If he still had a body, he would surely be slumped on the ground like a helpless child, trying to escape this place amid immense fear.
The adjusted camera locked onto the metal box secured beneath the satellite; looking at the metal box before him, he finally realized what was inside.
Or rather, what exactly did Colonel Chu have him plug into the control system long ago?
That is the devil, the evil that cannot be released from Pandora's box!
It is 170 kilograms of nuclear waste loaded on each satellite, a total of 7,242,000 kilograms of dirty bombs! A super-disaster capable of dragging all of humanity into hell!
As long as he issues the command, within milliseconds the activated deployment device will launch these dirty bombs into the atmosphere and detonate them in an extremely short time.
The explosion from over 7,200 tons of radioactive nuclear waste will release radiation contamination hundreds to thousands of times greater.
Dust, explosion, and high-energy radiation will quickly cover the globe under the action of atmospheric circulation.
The dust cloud laden with lethal radiation will persist in the stratosphere where rain cannot condense; ultimately, a death like a lead curtain will, over more than thirty million years, drag the entire world into endless darkness and cold.
Moreover, in the detonation authority he instantly obtained, he suddenly saw the detonation devices buried sometime ago beneath seventy-seven volcanoes.
Those seventy-seven red dots, like the final judgment, are ready at any moment to detonate these sleeping roars!
Even without his knowledge, the East-46 Red Dragon Satellite, armed with space-based weapons, has already entered North American airspace along its orbital flight path.
Directly beneath it lies the Yellowstone volcano, dormant for six hundred forty thousand years.
That is the largest active volcano known to humanity.
In its brief eruption six hundred forty thousand years ago, it formed half a continent.
Under the triple doomsday judgment destruction combination, Deng Xiang, an alumnus of Beijing Institute of Technology, all too clearly knows what this signifies...
That is total annihilation, an ecological mass extinction capable of killing every species.
As long as he confirms the order, the blue planet beneath his feet, their home, will burst forth with the final light of life like a supernova completely detonated.
The erupting lava ash will surge up to near-Earth orbit, like an inverted waterfall of lava.
The radiation covering the globe will trigger strong electromagnetic effects, generating deadly and dazzling auroras within a week.
If he could have known in advance everything Chu An did, he would surely have desperately tried to stop this insanely extreme practice!
However, at this very moment.
Chu An has already confirmed the destruction order.
The final order has been placed in his hands.
A deathly silence prevails; even the howling wind is frozen in the silence of the Alien Species Emperor.
Seemingly calm, at this moment both the Alien Species Sovereign and the remaining Dominion-level Alien Species are utterly chilled, as if looking at a madman, as if looking at a demon, they stare at Chu An before them.
Motionless, the two sides are like frozen statues, silently standing beneath the sky.
Even though they are Alien Species, they once possessed a powerful technological civilization.
But after the Apocalypse erupted, they abandoned that path, choosing bodily evolution.
Therefore, they clearly understand exactly what Chu An has done before them.
Their eyes locked, for a long time.
"Wu Qing" silently clenched his fists, then slowly relaxed them, his aura also receding into his body.
He looked at Chu An and, as if unable to comprehend, spoke softly:
"Aren't you afraid..."
"of becoming a sinner of your civilization?"
"If the humans of your world knew what you have done, what do you think they would think?"
He stepped forward calmly, without attempting any attack, the Alien Species Emperor stared fixedly at Chu An, hoping to see any emotional fluctuation from this man.
"Frankly speaking, even if we wanted this world, we would not kill all humanity!"
"Why bother?"
"Why destroy the future of two worlds?"
After his words fell, Wu Qing patiently awaited Chu An's reply.
He shielded useless emotions such as anger, shock, and even fear.
When he took this first step and posed the question...
He knew that from this moment on, negotiations had begun... he had never imagined he would be stopped by a mere insect.
But this man has already chosen to destroy the world.
Killing him, it's meaningless.
He raised his head, looking at the Alien Species Emperor approaching him, Chu An gently lifted his glasses frame, and gave a gentle smile.
"No, it's just that your future has been destroyed."
"But at this moment, our future has just begun."
