Chapter 868: The Skrull Network Offensive
Chapter 868: The Skrull Network Offensive
Eighteen days later, the date was February 15th.
With only three and a half months left until the final battle, the atmosphere in major cities like the Imperial Capital, Donghai City, Rongcheng, and Yangcheng, as well as in large cities abroad, was tense and filled with a sense of impending doom.
As the final conflict drew closer, the human race grew increasingly anxious and tense.
However, for Su Yu, the tension was not as severe as in the previous life. Back then, the tension was at least a hundred times greater, and most of the Blue Star inhabitants had realized that humanity was on the brink of extinction.
Additionally, the Skrulls had released countless monsters across the world, causing many nations to enter a state of chaos and despair.
But this time, the Blue Star humans were much better prepared, stronger, and the United Government had a greater control over the world than in the previous life.
Moreover, there were no monsters appearing, which helped maintain stability in the major countries.
The game's time flow rate was still 1/12, meaning that for every day in real life, six and a half days passed in the game. In total, humanity had 22 months left, a crucial factor in maintaining social stability.
...
On February 15th at 3 PM, in the Yan Mountain United Government Headquarters.
The United Government Headquarters, now a fortified stronghold, had been transformed into a fortress of steel and advanced defense systems.
From the top floor of the United Government Headquarters, Hu Jingyi, the leader of the Blue Star core decision-makers, was leading a meeting.
However, they were not discussing government affairs.
Instead, the projection screen in the meeting room was displaying a series of videos.
These videos showed the traitor Brandon, along with several other defectors, enjoying themselves on Skrull. The videos had already flooded the entire Blue Star internet.
In the first video, Brandon was seen driving an R3-type levitation car, speeding through the skies of the Sun City, while outside the window, Brandon is laughing and explaining, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is a simple of driving an R3-type levitation car, which is the most common model on the Sun Star, similar to a modern Ford, and everyone can afford one. The interior is also luxurious...
"If you come to the Skrull, you'll find it very easy to buy a car, even a better one," Brandon continues, while controlling the car to perform aerial stunts, showcasing its superior performance.
...
After the first video, the projection switched to the second video, this time featuring Maxwell, a super-rich Pacifican from the Pacific Ocean.
Maxwell, who had never intended to betray the human race, was now flying a silver single mech suit in the skies of the Sun City, performing stunts and aerial maneuvers, showing off the capabilities of the aerial vehicles.
...
After the second video, the projection switched to the third video, this time featuring Maxwell, who was not thinking a silver single mech suit, flying through the skies of the Sun City, performing stunts and aerial maneuvers, showing off the capabilities of the aerial vehicles.
High in the sky, he directed the mecha to perform a series of high-difficulty rolls, shouting excitedly.
At the same time, he said in the video, "Everyone, do you want to be Iron Man? Come to Skrul, and your dream of becoming Iron Man will come true immediately! The suit I'm wearing is the M-264 Light Power Armor, which can be worn by third-stage cultivators. The price is also quite affordable; no third-stage cultivator on Skrul can't afford it. Once you put on this armor, you can fly freely in the sky, an experience you can never have on Earth..."
Madison recorded the video in the evening, capturing the magnificent scenery of the Sun City below, with a futuristic feel.
...
The projection video continued to switch.
The third video came from Pacific Nation defector journalist Prince: "Everyone, look, Skrul isn't just a cold, steel city. In fact, over 90% of Skrul's land is nature reserves. Here, you can see the original ecology of Skrul, making it a great place for relaxation and vacation..."
In the video, Prince drove a small hover car slowly through the serene Skrul primeval forest, passing by all kinds of exotic plants that Earthlings have never seen.
The fourth video came from the deputy prime minister of a small Western European country, Mycenae: "Everyone, look, this is the Trener Tower, which is over 400 meters tall and houses nearly one million people. It's the tallest building on Skrul. It was also from this tower that the lethal disintegration beam was fired, instantly killing Cat Morningstar..."
The fifth video came from the famous Western European movie star, Anna Leslie: "Oh, I can't believe it, the food on Skrul is so delicious. Even the food for ordinary people is more refined than on Earth..."
...
The videos kept switching on the projector, each lasting between 15 seconds to one minute, typical short videos.
These short videos contained a lot of information, showcasing various aspects of Skrul life.
Moreover, traitors like Brandon focused on the lives of ordinary people, not the luxurious lives of the Skrul elite. This approach gave Earthlings the feeling that "If I go to Skrul, I can live like this too."
Because of this, the videos immediately attracted a massive audience online, with each of the four videos racking up over a hundred million views in just a few days.
The videos also received a lot of positive feedback, with the most liked comments expressing a strong desire to go to Skrul and become a Skrul citizen.
As for the critical comments, they either couldn't be posted or were deleted as soon as they appeared.
...
Chairman Hu Jingyi, looking at these videos, couldn't help but sigh, "Can we find a way to delete these videos?"
"Currently, we can't," replied Zhang, the commissioner sitting beside him. "The Skrul have taken full control of our network. We've only managed to protect a few key websites; everything else has been compromised."
Zhao Wenhui, the director of the Cyberspace Administration, added, "In the first few months after the Great Change, the Skrul didn't take us seriously and only set up surveillance satellites. But now, with Brandon's defection, they've started actively attacking our network and taking control of this public opinion battleground. With our current technological capabilities, we have no chance of defending or retaking it."
