Chapter 494: Busan's Journey
Chapter 494: Busan's Journey
The appearance of the "Gravity Funnel" above Neon Kyoto immediately caused a global uproar. From the internet to the real world, every Blue Star citizen was captivated by this event. Although everyone knew that the Skrulls would eventually release the 3,533 monsters they had created, the day it actually happened, and the sight of the massive blood-red "Gravity Funnel" in the official video, filled everyone with shock and despair.
Chairman Hu Jinping hastily concluded his meeting with Su Yu and others. He returned to the capital of Huaxia and recorded a video message to address the people of the world. In the video, Chairman Hu sat solemnly behind a wide conference table, with the flags of Huaxia and the United Government prominently displayed on the wall behind him.
Chairman Hu placed his hands together, speaking with gravity and solemnity: "Citizens of Blue Star, I am Hu Jinping, the Chairman of the United Government. Our world is now in a state of extreme peril."
"Thirty days ago, the Skrulls used the psychic energy from various psychic springs to create 3,533 monsters, which they have now released in Neon Kyoto."
"If we do not stop them, these thousands of monsters will sweep across the continent, utterly destroying humanity!"
He paused here, and the video showed a five-second clip of Neon Kyoto being overwhelmed by a horde of monsters, with scenes of destruction and suffering. After the clip, the video returned to Chairman Hu, who continued:
"This is a great calamity, and it marks the first battle between humanity and the Skrulls!"
"I hereby declare that all major combat zones under the United Government are to enter Level One combat readiness! We swear to eliminate all the monsters and thwart the Skrulls' plans!"
The video spread rapidly across the internet. Seeing the Chairman's resolve, most citizens felt a sense of reassurance, quietly praying that the war could be won. Meanwhile, military forces around the world entered a state of readiness. Countless fighter jets took off from military bases worldwide, converging on Huaxia. Intercontinental ballistic missiles were targeted at Neon, waiting for the launch order.
However, Chairman Hu did not rashly order the launch of these nuclear missiles. The monsters were mixed in with the most densely populated areas of Neon, which had one of the highest population densities in the world. The four small islands were home to 130 million people. Eliminating all the monsters would require at least 6,000 one-megaton nuclear warheads. The two nuclear bombs, "Fat Man" and "Little Boy," dropped on Neon during World War II had a combined yield of only 20 kilotons.
Six thousand nuclear warheads would obliterate Neon from the map, leaving no survivors among the 130 million inhabitants. Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Chairman Hu would not use nuclear weapons.
As for Su Yu, after the meeting, he and Zhang Zhengwei had a brief discussion and decided to go to a specific place. This place was Busan, the second-largest city in Goryeo, located in the southeastern corner of the country and the closest major city to Neon.
A silver teleportation array unfolded in the square in front of the relevant department building. Under the watchful eyes of the department's personnel, Su Yu activated the array and left Donghai City with Tao Qian, Zhang Zhengwei, Zhong Feng, and Xue Wenli.
In the next moment, the teleportation array appeared on a beach southeast of Busan, and Su Yu and his companions materialized on the sandy shore.
Busan, situated in the southeastern corner of Goryeo, was the closest major city to Neon.
To the southeast of Busan lies the Korea Strait and the Tsushima Strait. Crossing these two straits, it's only a 200-kilometer journey to Fukuoka Prefecture in Japan.
Based on Su Yu's assessment, the monster horde is likely to devastate Japan before crossing the straits to land in Busan.
Thus, this area is considered the front line in the fight against the monster horde.
Standing by the sea in Busan, the group spontaneously turned their gaze eastward toward Kyoto, Japan.
Although they couldn't see or sense the atrocities unfolding in Japan due to the distance, everyone felt the impending storm.
After a few seconds, Comrade Zhang threw a "3D Projection Positioning Disk" onto the sand and pulled out his phone to call Chairman Hu's private line.
About a minute later, the 3D projection device emitted a blinding white light, and Chairman Hu's 3D projection appeared above the disk.
Chairman Hu had been busy dealing with the crisis until this moment, and he finally had a chance to catch his breath.
After surveying the surroundings, he asked, "Is this Busan?"
"Indeed it is," Comrade Zhang replied.
"Good," Chairman Hu nodded, his expression stern. "We need to establish the first line of defense between Busan and Tsushima Island, and the second line of defense within our country."
"Of course, we can't rely entirely on the second line of defense. We should aim to eliminate the monster horde at the first line of defense!"
"No problem," Comrade Zhang replied. "We'll start building the first line of defense immediately. But what if the monster horde tries to bypass the defense and enter the Asian mainland via the East China Sea or Hokkaido?"
Comrade Zhang had already considered the answer to this question: using nuclear strikes to force the monster horde to take the Busan route. However, the decision-making power rested with Chairman Hu, so he posed the question to get a definitive answer.
"Rest assured," Chairman Hu said seriously. "If the monster horde attempts to cross the sea from another direction, we will use nuclear strikes to force them to take this route. Time is of the essence, so let's review our resources to plan our war strategy."
"Understood," Comrade Zhang and the others replied in unison.
"First," Chairman Hu turned to Su Yu, "tell us, what resources from the Evolution game can help us win this war?"
"Let me think for a moment," Su Yu replied after a brief pause. "The game doesn't offer much beyond Morningstar the cat and Tina. The main resources are various plant seeds and the five camps."
"Currently, the game has produced nearly 200,000 golden seeds. Planting these in Busan and on Tsushima Island should significantly slow down the monster horde's advance."
"As for the five camps, if we exchange a large number of fifth-tier units from them, we should be able to hold the front line against the monster horde."
"Understood," Chairman Hu nodded and turned to Xue Wenli. "Wenli, I want you and your team to urgently plant these 200,000 seeds in Busan, Tsushima Island, and the waters between them. Time is short, so plant as many as you can."
"Understood!" Xue Wenli replied immediately.
"Next, Zhong Feng," he turned to Zhong Feng. "I'll contact the Treasury Department to exchange the reserve gold for 2,000 fifth-tier magic beast units. You will be responsible for controlling these units."
"Understood!" Zhong Feng replied promptly.
