Chapter 108 Electric Current
He looked at the scene in front of him in shock, looking at the body of the first decision-maker lying motionless on the ground.
Like a rusty robot, he cast a stiff gaze at the secretary-general squatting beside him and muttered, "What's going on? What's going on?"
The Secretary-General looked at him and laughed bitterly, "The Ascending Faction and the Moon God launched a precise decapitation attack on our civilization. All five decision-makers have died, all died, wuwuwu..."
There are five decision-makers in human civilization.
At this moment, all five decision makers died at the same time.
The deputy secretary-general who rushed into the meeting room to report the emergency collapsed to the ground instantly.
A tall, dark-skinned, gray-haired old man walked quickly to the podium and looked at the Secretary-General.
"Your Excellency, Secretary General! According to the Civilization Charter, if all five decision-makers are killed or unable to serve, you should temporarily assume the responsibilities of the decision-maker and convene a general meeting as soon as possible to elect a new decision-maker!
You have to cheer up! "
The Secretary General stood up slightly shakily.
He looked pale and murmured, "Yes, I must cheer up, I must cheer up..."
Fortitude and composure gradually returned to him.
He took a deep breath and stood in front of the microphone on the podium.
He raised his head and glanced at the meeting place, and saw countless eyes filled with grief, pain and hatred.
The Secretary-General was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I announce that due to an emergency, this meeting will be temporarily suspended.
Please wait for notification on when the meeting will reopen. Now, the meeting is adjourned."
The participants stood up silently and walked out of the conference hall in an orderly manner.
The participant closest to the door did not leave the venue directly, but approached the podium. Under the podium, he bowed deeply to the first decision-maker who was lying motionless on the podium, and then turned and left.
The second one follows closely.
He also bowed deeply before leaving. Then the third person, the fourth person... and so on until everyone had left.
Some core personnel continued to stay here and, under the command of the Secretary-General, carried away the body of the first decision-maker.
Zhou Cheng returned to his dormitory in a daze.
Seeing that he looked so bad, Liu Yu asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
Zhou Cheng sat on the sofa in silence, muttering, "The decision makers have all sacrificed themselves."
Liu Yuru was struck by lightning and stood there for a moment. After a long moment, he said in disbelief, "They...all died?"
Zhou Cheng held his head weakly.
…
Time passed slowly, and soon, the remains of the five decision-makers were transported to the World Government Building.
Doctors and forensic pathologists summoned from the hospital performed autopsies on their bodies and ultimately determined the cause of their deaths.
"Their hearts suffered electrical shocks from unknown sources, causing them to stop and they lost their lives within a short period of time."
The Secretary-General, who temporarily assumed the decision-making authority, said solemnly, "At the time of the incident, they were all in different environments. Furthermore, there was no sign of any electrical leakage."
"I have no idea."
The leading medical examiner shook his head. "I'm also surprised by this. Aside from their hearts, there's no sign of electric shock anywhere else on their bodies. It's as if the current was precisely delivered to their hearts, causing a momentary disruption in their function and ultimately leading to their deaths."
A physicist who followed murmured, "Perhaps this is some unknown method of remote discharge."
The Secretary-General looked at Wei Ning.
Wei Ning shook his head silently. "When the incident happened, I mobilized all available personnel to search all areas within a radius of at least two kilometers, centered around the conference room. We also retrieved footage, conducted interviews, and concluded that no suspects were found."
The Secretary-General nodded silently.
It's actually not important what technology or means the Ascending Sect and the Moon God used to achieve this remote beheading. What's important is that we can confirm that it was the work of the Moon God and the Ascending Sect.
They clearly expressed their attitude in this simple and crude way.
It's still the same sentence, if mercy doesn't work, I will use thunder.
If you refuse to stop fighting, then... die.
This matter came to a temporary end. After a period of preparation, all officials who had reached a certain level in human civilization gathered in Dajing City.
Afterwards, a meeting was held that was broadcast live to everyone in the world and attended by more than three thousand people.
People must elect five new decision-makers at this meeting. Only in this way can the various affairs of civilization continue to move forward.
After a series of procedures, five people, including the former Secretary-General of the World Government, formed a new decision-making team, and he assumed the responsibility of the first decision-maker.
He knew in his heart that although the security team headed by Wei Ning had mobilized more than 10,000 people to be scattered around the conference hall and mobilized a large number of people to participate in security, the area within three kilometers around the conference hall had been under martial law and no suspects could approach, but he knew in his heart that his own defense would probably not have any effect on the Ascension Sect and the Moon Goddess.
Thunder had truly descended upon the human world, carrying away all the previous decision-makers. If he still refused to change, refused to give up the struggle, then this thunder might also fall upon him.
Am I afraid of death?
He questioned his heart.
The answer is fear.
Everyone is afraid. No one wants to die if they can live.
Although he is already in his sixties and has lived for more than sixty years, he still wants to continue living if possible, the longer the better.
only……
There are some things that must be done even at the cost of death.
With a light sigh, he straightened his clothes and walked towards the podium with a solemn expression.
"Thank you for your trust in me. Now, I will deliver my inaugural address.
My speech was very simple, just one sentence.”
He glanced towards the side of the podium.
Not long ago, the first decision maker fell there.
He raised his head again, his gaze penetrating the thick ceiling as he looked at the being of unknown origin in the unknown space, whom they called the Moon God.
He spoke the sentence almost word for word.
"Just as the former First Decision-maker said before his death, I will lead everyone, our entire civilization, to continue fighting. Unless death comes, I will not stop.
I have finished my speech, thank you everyone."
He took a step back and bowed deeply to all the attendees. Then, the next moment, his body collapsed to the ground.
