Chapter 250 The US Shuts Down, and Countries Sever Diplomatic Relations
The speed at which the United States fell exceeded everyone's expectations.
It only took less than a day.
From Washington to Los Angeles, from Texas to New York, the entire United States was completely paralyzed.
The online distress video was playing one second, and the next second the person who posted it was swallowed by that terrifying monster.
Meanwhile, those monsters disguised as humans, driving cars, flying planes, and even walking across state borders, spread their parasitic cells like crazy.
This caused an uproar throughout the international community.
The United States, on which the sun never sets, was the first to react, immediately ordering preparations to shoot down all aircraft bearing the insignia of the United States that approached its airspace.
Canada went even further, laying three million landmines along the border overnight and replacing all its troops with flamethrowers and incendiary bombs.
The higher-ups even issued a strict order: whatever it is, if any living creature crosses the line, it can be burned to ashes without needing permission.
In an instant, flights in all countries surrounding the United States and even other countries were grounded, and even maritime transport and cross-border trains were suspended.
It was as if the whole world was isolating the entire United States on this day.
At the same time.
Dongda University, the capital of China, a strategic conference room at a military base.
The atmosphere was also extremely oppressive.
Zheng Guodong sat at the head of the long table, staring at the North American map on the screen, which had been marked in dark red, his brows furrowed into a deep knot.
"Leaders, we have just received news from the United States that two breaches have been made in their border control barrier."
Those monsters are mixed in with the refugees, and there's a growing trend of them flooding into the country.
The intelligence officer stood to the side, quickly reading the report in his hand.
The faces of the high-ranking generals present were ashen.
"Those bastards..."
A general clenched his fist.
"What on earth did those lunatics create in that lab?!"
"There's no point in saying all this now."
Zheng Guodong tapped the table.
"Given the current situation, our coastal defenses must be placed on the highest level of combat readiness."
All unidentified vessels approaching our territorial waters are prohibited from entering. If necessary, they may be sunk.
We can't gamble on whether this thing will travel across the ocean.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Zheng Guodong took a deep breath and turned to look at the correspondent:
"Did you connect to Raccoon City as I asked?"
"We've already contacted Mr. Lin..."
As the reporter spoke, he took out the remote control and pressed a button on the large screen in the conference room. Soon, the screen flickered twice, and the image switched in.
In the video,
Lin Jianguo was sitting on the sofa at the Umbrella base, legs crossed. He was also holding sunflower seeds in his hand, cracking them open with relish.
Upon seeing this scene, the generals in the conference room all twitched their lips a few times.
They're on the verge of detonating a nuclear bomb here, and this old guy still has the mood to eat sunflower seeds?
"Old Lin!"
Zheng Guodong's face immediately darkened. "You're still in the mood to eat sunflower seeds? Do you know what's going on outside? The whole of North America is practically a monster's lair!"
"I know."
Lin Jianguo spat out the sunflower seed shells and tossed the sunflower seeds in his hand onto the table beside him.
"I've been waiting around doing nothing since you guys haven't replied, so I've just been eating some melon seeds..."
Seeing his extremely relaxed demeanor, everyone in the conference room was even more speechless. Zheng Guodong couldn't help but speak up:
"Do you know that the monster is about to swallow up the entire North America?"
"I know, but what does this have to do with me?" Lin Jianguo asked, looking confused.
"you……"
Zheng Guodong was immediately enraged and shouted angrily on the spot.
"Since you know that, why haven't you left yet?"
"Raccoon City is too close to the infected zone. Those things are beyond the capabilities of conventional weapons! Activate the emergency evacuation plan immediately; the government will send a submarine to rescue you and your son!"
After listening, Lin Jianguo dropped his nonchalant expression and moved closer to the camera.
"Old Zheng, thank you so much!"
But if I leave, who will clean up this mess?
Zheng Guodong was stunned: "No, what mess do you have to clean up?"
Lin Jianguo grinned.
"Hehe, naturally it's those things nobody wants."
He laughed heartily and continued,
"After all these years, I finally get to come out of town. I can't just go back empty-handed without bringing back any local specialties, can I?"
"you……"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Guodong was speechless.
He never dreamed that at this point, the old man would still be thinking about freeloading.
Although this matter is indeed beneficial to the country, Zheng Guodong still wants to speak out considering the current situation.
But before he could speak, Lin Jianguo continued:
"Besides, even if I wanted to leave now, my son might not be able to."
You don't know yet, that kid recently came up with a new trick.
That kid has all sorts of weird abilities from who-knows-where, and he can even bestow them on other people…
hiss--
Upon hearing this, a collective gasp filled the entire strategic conference room.
What the heck?
Can it grant other people superpowers?
"What did you say?"
Zheng Guodong stood up in disbelief, propping his hands on the table and asking,
"You mean Lin Fan now possesses the ability to grant others superpowers?"
"Huh... what's wrong?"
Lin Jianguo looked at him with an expression that said, "You're so ignorant," and explained.
"Of course, it's still in the testing phase, but there are already two successful cases."
"One can release special toxins, and the other can control wind, rain, thunder, and lightning... We can barely be considered S-level now!"
reluctantly,
S-class?
Do you want to listen to the nonsense you're spouting?
It's important to know that there are no more than 5,000 S-class individuals in the entire world, and that's only after decades of accumulation.
You didn't do anything, yet you produced two S-class items...
If people find out, they'll probably kill you and your son!
At this moment, the huge conference room fell silent.
Extraordinary power.
It has always been a strategic resource that countries have long coveted.
Whoever masters the method of mass production will hold the reins of future world hegemony in their hands.
Zheng Guodong's initial anxiety subsided instantly. He sat back down in his chair, his mind racing.
"Where is Lin Fan's limit? What is his success rate?"
"have no idea."
Lin Jianguo shrugged.
"But that kid knows what he's doing. You don't need to worry about my safety here."
Upon hearing Lin Jianguo's words, Zheng Guodong hesitated for a moment, then gave some instructions to be careful before hanging up the call.
The meeting room remained quiet.
After a long while, Zheng Guodong let out a long breath, and his tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
"It seems we need to adjust our strategic deployment again."
Zheng Guodong looked up at the crowd.
"Give Lin Jianguo access to the highest level of intelligence network. Whatever supplies they need over there, as long as they are available in China, do everything you can to transport them there."
