The top-level meeting of the Shining Star Group was being held, and a small meeting was also taking place at the center of power in the imperial capital. However, just halfway through the meeting, it was interrupted by a shocking news.
Several senior leaders at the conference table who usually remained calm under the pressure of the mountain all showed expressions of surprise at this moment.
"Zhou Xing has returned to China? Are you sure?" Mr. Xu asked Du Mingwei impatiently.
"Yes, the presidents of Shining Star Group - Yang Minghua, Lin Wei, Xie Liwu, and others interrupted the meeting and rushed back to the headquarters to attend the meeting. Coupled with the situation reported by Minister Chen, it can be confirmed that Zhou Xing has used the teleportation star gate to return to the country. At the same time, the US side reported that the high-frequency wave detector had been tampered with and could not activate the Miracle Door properly," Du Mingweihui reported.
"How could he do this in front of everyone! Why didn't he find a place where no one was around!"
"So that kid is a troublemaker! It's hard to live a day without getting into trouble!"
"Well done, well done!"
“…”
After listening to Du Mingwei's report, several leaders burst into smiles and started laughing and scolding.
As for the consequences of this incident, compared to Zhou Xing's safe return to China, it is just a trivial trouble.
"Mingwei, please come over, we want to see him!" Mr. Xu looked at Du Mingwei and ordered impatiently.
"Okay, Chief." Du Mingwei responded and immediately turned around and left.
Watching Du Mingwei turn away, Mr. Xu turned to look at the chairman's seat and said with a wry smile: "I don't know what method Zhou Xing used to break the activation process of the Miracle Door. This seems to have offended the public. Can you please calm down first?" The mood of other countries.”
Although the Miracle Gate is located in the United States Federation, it has the function of interstellar teleportation and is related to the future of the entire human civilization. Whether it is used to develop other planets or the threat from the Dark Zerg, the Miracle Gate is no longer a country's problem. , but a problem for the entire human society.
"Send a statement to other countries that the Miracle Door is the common wealth of all mankind and no country can possess it alone." The head of China said with a smile.
"That's right! The Miracle Gate must be managed by all countries together."
“…”
The Miracle Gate was tampered with by Zhou Xing and could not be activated. Upon learning of this unexpected news, the eyes of all the leaders present lit up. Suddenly, the meeting unknowingly changed the direction of the discussion.
The Gate of Miracles is located in the United States, which gives the U.S. Federation a huge geographical advantage. If other countries want to join the Gate of Miracles research project, they must pay a huge price to the United States. Now the situation has changed, and the control of the Gate of Miracles has been circumvented. Xing has been seized, to a certain extent, to balance the gap between various countries and the United States.
An hour later, Zhou Xing followed Du Mingwei into the conference room.
Hearing the footsteps, everyone perked up.
Mr. Xu turned around and greeted Zhou Xing happily: "Ha, we are finally here!"
Facing the concerned looks of the chiefs, Zhou Xing walked up to them and greeted them one by one: "Hello, chief, prime minister, Mr. Xu..."
"Okay! Okay! Good boy, you have offended General Ston terribly." Mr. Wen looked at Zhou Xing and cursed with a smile.
Zhou Xing smiled bitterly and explained: "The situation forced us to leave. Under that situation, there was no other way but to leave as soon as possible."
The leaders nodded in understanding. Under such circumstances, it was very difficult for Zhou Xing to use the Miracle Door to escape.
"Come, come, Xiaoxing, come and sit next to me." Premier Li warmly invited Zhou Xing to sit next to him.
Zhou Xing nodded and sat in the empty seat on the right side of Prime Minister Li.
"Xiao Xing, thank you for your hard work on this mission!" Prime Minister Li looked at Zhou Xing with relief and asked straight to the point: "Is the threat of that giant insect species really that big?"
Zhou Xing suppressed the smile on his face and replied solemnly: "Prime Minister, the Dark Zerg is an interstellar species. Based on the content obtained from the black box and their genetic information, it can be inferred that this species has unlimited evolutionary potential. Humans on Earth The source civilization is probably in doom and gloom, but the survivors of our civilization have not obtained the relevant technological inheritance. If they learn of our location, mankind will only be destroyed."
Hearing this, the seven leaders looked solemn and fell into silence.
With Zhou Xing's knowledge and ability, his speculation is very likely, then the situation of mankind is really very dangerous.
"How should we prevent it? What are your ideas?" Premier Li nodded and asked Zhou Xingdao.
"First of all, we need to build more advanced space telescopes, lay out space reconnaissance networks, and obtain intelligence about their appearance in advance. Secondly, we should unite global forces to build human interstellar fleets and strive for a glimmer of hope for the future. Of course, this process requires a lot of time. It will take a long time, but we must prepare as early as possible and make long-term plans, otherwise, the future situation of mankind will become very dangerous." Zhou Xing answered worriedly.
"Well! How much preparation time do you think we have?" Premier Li nodded, looked at Zhou Xing and asked.
Zhou Xingning pondered for a moment and estimated: "At this time, we must first obtain specific information about the Dark Zerg before we can make an accurate judgment. However, based on the known information, it is estimated that the time left for humans should be less than 100 years. "
Hearing this, several leaders looked at each other, with a hint of relief on their faces! A hundred years! That was a very long time ago. Maybe they had turned into loess long ago. Zhou Xing's worries seemed a bit unfounded.
Seeing the looks on the faces of the leaders, Zhou Xing knew clearly what kind of thoughts they had.
Zhou Xing smiled slightly and introduced: "Chief, Prime Minister, although this exploration of the insect star has led to the invasion of the earth by the insect race and caused huge panic and disaster to human society, overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
Hearing this, several leaders were stunned. This insect planet exploration operation caused the global economy and political structure to regress for almost ten years. At the same time, mankind also faced the threat of giant insect species. What kind of harvest? Can this kind of loss be lowered
"Xiao Zhou, are you mistaken?" Mr. Xu frowned and looked at Zhou Xing in confusion.
Zhou Xing looked at Mr. Xu and smiled, and explained: "Mr. Xu, we have collected the species genes of the mother worm of the Dark Zerg and discovered the origin of the human species. If you give me a little more time, there will be a major breakthrough in the field of biological genes. "
"A major breakthrough, you mean human life-extending genetic technology?" Premier Li perked up and asked Zhou Xingdao.
Zhou Xing smiled slightly, nodded confidently, and said, "Yes! However, it is not just a breakthrough in human life-extending gene technology, there should be other new biological application technologies."
"How long? How long does it take to break through?" Mr. Xu looked at Zhou Xing with bright eyes and asked eagerly.
Zhou Xing's answer was like an "exploding" "nuclear bomb". The faces of several leaders present could no longer remain calm and calm. They looked at Zhou Xing with burning eyes, inexplicably excited.
Human lifespan is only a mere hundred years. Extending life expectancy and immortality have always been the dreams that humans have dreamed of. If it were truly possible, many people would be willing to pay a huge price for it.
Several of the leaders present were over sixty years old, and they were as afraid of death as ordinary people. If there was a breakthrough in life-extending gene technology, they wanted to see with their own eyes when China surpassed the United States Federation, and they wanted to witness the arrival of the interstellar era with their own eyes.
