Chapter 423: Using Nuclear Weapons to Blow Up a Satellite
Chapter 423: Using Nuclear Weapons to Blow Up a Satellite
The current UN General Assembly had the records for both the fastest resolution reached as well as the least number of participants. The large hall, ordinarily capable of seating hundreds now only had 20 individuals within it who were bickering noisily.
“You damned Yankees committed the sin, so why do you want all of us, all the humans in the world to wipe your asses!!! Damned assholes, you deserve to go to hell and repent! No, you will definitely go to hell because you people bear the sin of causing the extinction of mankind!”
A strong bear-like Slavic man cursed wildly with his loud voice, causing a tremor in the entire UN conference hall. The raging Russian delegate possessed the demeanor of a maddened bear.
The representatives of France, England, China, and some non-permanent members sat expressionlessly. Although they did not loudly curse the Americans like the Russian delegate, they still looked gloomy and irritated.
The American side was also helpless and could only feel bitter as he faced the accusations. As an informed person, he knew that the crisis of human extinction was related to the United States of America, but on this occasion, he could not openly admit it.
“Please calm down, Mr. Tchaikovsky! You have no proof that this catastrophe is related to America. This is a catastrophe for all mankind, for Asia, America, Europe, and other countries. This is the greatest catastrophe in the history of human civilization. And we are here to discuss how to deal with it.”
The American representative refuted the Russian accusations. Although he didn’t believe it himself, he still had to say it.
“Stop bullshitting! Your words are as ridiculous as saying you would use laundry detergent as a weapon of mass destruction. Who are you trying to fool? Our astronomers and mathematicians have calculated that the satellite is headed for the United States of America. What is it that the United States has that attracted the satellite to impact? Is it your burger chains? You tell me!”
The Russian representative once again cursed in fury. If it were the usual, the Russian representative would be happy at being able to point against the American representative, but now he only had anger and panic.
“Please remain calm, the reason we are having this meeting is to solve the problem. No matter who caused this crisis of human extinction now is not the time to push around the responsibility. This will not solve our problems. We should now spend our limited time discussing how to solve the crisis.”
The Chinese representative stood up and said a few words to calm the two sides down.
The other countries remained quiet and continued to think of a solution as they watched.
This time, the United Nations meeting was being listened to by the leaders of each country behind the scenes. In fact, the representatives were like telephones.
“What he said is right. This is not the time to quarrel. We cannot hide the incoming asteroid from the public. Now, there are already private astronomy enthusiasts who have discovered this fact. We can still control public opinion, but as long as the enthusiasts who find it increases in numbers, we won’t be able to suppress them.”
“If the public finds out that the human race is about to become extinct, the world will fall into chaos!”
The representative of France spoke out.
Current France was facing the Yellow Vests Revolution and other movements, it could be said that they had the most experience in going against people’s power.
“We can pray to God!”
Seeing France speak out, England also spoke out.
“God will not save human beings who do nothing. We should learn to save ourselves before praying to God. The divine Christ had just saved us with his life, but we do not know how to be grateful. We are simply repeating history and taking the fate of human beings and the mercy of Christ as a joke again.”
The French representative looked at the English representative, and then at the American representative.
The representative of China also coughed lightly and spoke out, “The old alchemist that saved Tokyo and visited China is currently missing. We do not know where to look for him, so we may really have to rely on ourselves now.”
“The representative of France is right, before praying to God, we have to learn to save ourselves first. For that, we, the United States of America, have come up with a thorough plan, and we need the cooperation of all countries.”
The U.S. representative passed the information from the computer to all the participants and spoke with a strong tone, “The scholars of our country analyzed the satellite from the moment we discovered it. And they have come up with possible responses to our dilemma.”
“Everyone, this is the 3D model of Jupiter LXVI. Many of our experts have theorized that as long as we send a team to fly into space, land on this satellite, punch holes in it, and then place nuclear bombs inside, we can detonate it and split it into fragments.”
“As long as the yield of the nuclear bombs is large enough and they are placed in the correct location, we can disintegrate the satellite and blast it into pieces. Even if it continues to fall into Earth, the fragments will still cause damage, but it would not trigger any cataclysmic environmental changes that could cause human extinction.”
“As for the issue of public opinion, there is no need to mind it. We can tell the people openly about this crisis, and at the same time, we can publish our plans. As long as the plan succeeds, mankind will not face the danger of extinction. This should decrease people’s thoughts of rioting.”
Seeing the detailed and comprehensive plan of the United States that had an 80% success rate, the hearts of the participants gradually settled down. The crowd let out a light sigh as their nervousness and sense of oppression gradually disappeared.
“Hey, as much as I hate you Yanks, we Russians are totally in favor of this plan. For that, we can contribute a Big Ivan, yes, the same Big Ivan that you know!”
The Russian representative said excitedly, “Our best astronauts could also participate in this plan. In the universe, we Russians are invincible!”
“We Chinese are also in favor of it. The Chinese space station allows personnel from all countries on missions to enter it for resupply.”
“England is in favor!”
“France is in favor!”
“Japan is in favor!”
“Italy is in favor!”
“Germany is in favor!”
“……”
The participants of the meeting scrambled to talk. Those with money would provide money, the people with manpower would provide manpower, and those with political power would provide it. In order to save humanity, all countries had placed aside their former suspicion and decided to put in all their efforts to complete this ‘epic mission’.
The survival of humanity depended on this fight!
