Chapter 673: Conflict Escalates
"Why did it suddenly become like this? Are we going to have a war?"
"World War?"
"Well, Umbrella is a company, corporate war..."
"company……"
“…”
The heated discussion on the internet started to twitch when the identity of Umbrella itself was revealed.
Yes, it’s a company, but it’s the company that has built projects like Penglai and Nantianmen!
A company with its own private armed forces , recognized as the world's top special warfare company!
He pressed Kangaroo and Gaul to the ground and rubbed them, and made Neon and South Korea recognize him as their new father without any bloodshed!
For a moment, many people felt like they were in a dream. It had only been a few years? A company had actually reached the point where Da Piaoliang, the top overlord of Blue Star, had to put on such a posture?
At first I thought it was necessary. It was really not a big deal. How could a company go to such lengths?
But after counting Umbrella's achievements, they all fell silent.
It seems that it is really necessary...
How long has it been...
How long has it been since Da Piaoliang made such a big move?
Even the Gulf and Afghanistan were far from having this kind of mobilization back then!
“It feels like it was just yesterday that I bought my contact lenses…”
"Yeah, and my disappearing stones."
"I sleep well every day."
"Leukemia patients saved by stem cell cultivation technology."
"Mobile phones, holograms, smart homes."
"Trackers, robots, prosthetics."
"Fuck, I really have been unconsciously affecting every aspect of my life!"
"And even though many of the things used are not from Umbrella, they still contain some of their technology."
"Batteries, pollution control, Red Queen+, and now the VR platform..."
“…”
Seeing that Da Piaoliang suddenly launched this global mobilization, and seeing that Da Piaoliang took the initiative to immediately control Japan and South Korea.
Listen to the various international exhortations and calls for peace.
In an instant, it seemed that the air around was filled with the smell of gunpowder!
In addition to the various fleets at the major bases, a large number of fleets also gathered on the Piaomo border.
However, compared to the situation on the Da Piaoliang side, which was as if facing a formidable enemy, the Mo Kingdom looked as if nothing had happened. There was not even any defensive measures, and there was no confrontation at all.
Lie flat with your door wide open. Your fight has nothing to do with me, so feel free to attack...
Neon, South Korea, Mexico and the huge fleet on the sea.
This kind of power once again demonstrated the strength of the Blue Star Overlord!
During the Cuban crisis, the United States deployed a similar force.
In the end, the old bear gave in, withdrew the missiles from Cuba, and even let the nuclear submarine surface for inspection.
On the other hand, Da Piaoliang secretly withdrew the missiles that were also deployed in Tuji.
Well, the deployment of nuclear bombs in Turkey caused such a violent conflict, but now the deployment of nuclear bombs in Prussia is already open...
"If necessary, we will also activate the sealed aircraft carriers and warships!"
That beautiful person in charge made another semi-official speech on a certain website, and her words were extremely tough!
The navy is a military service that relies on existing stock. It needs to be accumulated over time and there is no way to increase it suddenly in a short period of time.
Most of the aircraft carriers that were converted from cargo ships during World War II did not catch up.
But if it is just , it will be much faster to get it back to the level of being usable.
In addition to the two active ships that had serious faults and needed repairs, two active ships that needed regular inspections and had various problems were also taken out.
The appearance is of full value, and the famous littoral combat ships are also out in full force. The spectacular pictures of the fleet taken by Da Piaoliang's own helicopter really make the world feel a huge sense of oppression.
A huge fleet consisting of dozens of giant warships guards the aircraft carrier in the middle as it rides against the wind and waves.
Large patches of white waves were painted on the blue ocean!
This is the majesty of the Blue Star Overlord!
Some curious people used satellite images to capture the unconcealed movement tracks of several beautiful fleets.
Being able to see the dark scene directly from space is truly a shock.
From all directions, encirclement and suppression from multiple fronts!
In the face of all this, Umbrella has remained silent and has not made any response or explanation regarding the explosion of the Great Beautiful Arsenal, and there is no updated information on the official website.
Some fearless reporters started to block some Umbrella staff members everywhere, but they didn't get what they wanted.
Afterwards, the topic of Umbrella admitting defeat also appeared on the Internet.
"A beautiful girl is still a beautiful girl after all..."
"In fact, we usually know they are strong just by listening to the numbers. Now that they are displayed, I really feel the same scene as in Cuba."
"After all, it is still the only superpower today."
"It's not shameful to admit defeat appropriately. Da Piaoliang is just posturing and he probably won't dare to push Umbrella too hard."
"Yes, if it all breaks out, there will be no winner. Da Piaoliang probably just wants to force it."
"The gunpowder depot was blown up, probably because they wanted to hand over the planner and the executor."
"The key point is that this matter may not be done by Umbrella."
"Well, let's be honest. Only Umbrella has a motive. It can't be Japan. They don't have the guts to do that even though Tokyo has been occupied."
"It can't be Da Piaoliang herself."
“…”
Originally, the space elevator project has always attracted attention.
The twists and turns of satellite collisions during the lowering to the intermediate orbit have also been a focus of attention.
Now that the ammunition depot exploded, it suddenly turned into this fiery scene before our eyes, which was both unexpected and somewhat natural!
Umbrella's continued silence also led to a slight sense of complacency on the part of Da Piaoliang.
They are very good at testing the bottom line and then approaching step by step.
Now that I see that you are afraid, I will naturally continue to increase my tone and raise my stakes!
Before, it was a semi-official statement by the person in charge on a certain website, but now it is the spokesperson of the authorities speaking directly in front of reporters.
"This explosion in the ammunition depot is a serious infringement on our interests and a serious provocation to Da Piaoliang! Therefore, blood debt must be paid with blood!"
First, he started to make a qualitative statement, and then a reporter immediately asked
"Now all countries are worried that an uncontrollable and devastating disaster will break out. Is there any way to deal with it?"
"Our goal is not to destroy Umbrella, we just want an explanation. So, as long as Umbrella can agree to our conditions, this matter will end here."
The spokesperson spoke very arrogantly, and then began to list the demands.
"First, severely punish the plan's developers and implementers. Regarding this, we will send a specialist to Umbrella Corporation to conduct confirmation and supervision.
“Second, space is the common property of mankind, so the space elevator must be open to the public in the future. Of course, in view of Umbrella’s investment, we will also provide financial compensation.
"Third, Umbrella needs to disclose its financial statements, accept our investment, and open up magic-related technologies so that we can all overcome the current difficulties together!"
“…”
It can be said that each opinion is more exaggerated and harsh than the other.
But in fact, this has always been Da Piaoliang's attitude and expression.
Even when they ask others for something, they always act superior, let alone when they make requests like this?
If you look at some of Da Piaoliang's past remarks, you can see that this kind of talk is actually not that strange. It seems natural. They often say more overbearing and unreasonable words.
If Umbrella itself had not been strong enough this time, its attitude would not have been so "good".
Now that he has shown such a big attitude and has seen the other party's weakness and compromise, it is only natural for him to speak like this!
Even after entering this big scene with a falling out, there will be another natural benefit.
At this time, even if Umbrella announced an economic counterattack and cut off supplies, there would be problems.
It is very likely that Da Piaoliang will freeze the assets once a bill is passed, and may even transfer the money directly to her own account and unilaterally declare it as war reparations!
Now that this option has been discussed, they will certainly be fully prepared for the various risks, measures that can be taken, and benefits.
It is indeed somewhat unexpected that things have developed to this point.
At first they didn't want to.
But instead of letting Umbrella take the initiative, it is better to take the initiative yourself!
There will eventually be a clash between the old overlord and the new king.
At least now the other party has surrendered without any reaction, at least the start is quite good...
