In the high-level conference room, Shi Yin sat next to the leader and whispered to him, while Nan Zhu stood beside her, occasionally making a few strokes on the paper in his hand, which made the two of them nod frequently.
Although this order puzzled many people, it seemed to have the full support of the Consul General.
Sometimes, the Commander-in-Chief trusted Shi Yin too much. Whatever Shi Yin said was law. No matter how loud the opposition was, Shi Yin would always be on his side. Ye Yuansong even doubted whether the Commander-in-Chief had actually heard what Shi Yin was saying.
"Shiyin, if it's for the long term, try not to use mind control," Ye Yuansong couldn't help but whisper to Shiyin.
"Hmm?" Shi Yin looked up from the documents and looked at Ye Yuansong with a puzzled expression: "I only used it when I first met you."
The implication is that you should know why you should support me and listen to me, so don't try to shift the blame onto me.
Although I will do my best to live up to your expectations, you can't put all the pressure on me.
Ye Yuansong stared wide-eyed at the commander-in-chief, who calmly looked at the documents in his hand, showing no surprise at the orders issued on them, and even nodding in satisfaction from time to time.
"What is the Major General thinking?" Shi Yin immediately realized that Ye Yuansong had misunderstood: "Half of the orders were issued after the Commander-in-Chief agreed. I am here to help the country, not to become the emperor."
Ye Yuansong: "..."
Right, it's just habitual thinking.
"You're already having these thoughts now, what will you do in the future?" Shi Yin sighed softly, "No matter how strong I am, I can't guarantee that I'll always come back safely. If I don't come back, you'll still have to lead humanity on this journey."
"Can't you start over?" Ye Yuansong said without any pressure.
"...Your thinking is dangerous." Shi Yin glanced at Ye Yuansong: "Placing all your hopes on me, what's the difference between you and a giant baby with its legs broken if something goes wrong?"
Ye Yuansong coughed lightly, genuinely feeling a little embarrassed.
Humans are always afraid of the unknown. It's like walking in the desert and seeing a sandstorm approaching, but then a tree appears beside you. Your subconscious reaction is to grab it tightly.
The meeting room quieted down as everyone gradually arrived.
“I’ve already read many of the laws, and there are no problems. The main point is to emphasize a few hard and fast rules,” Shi Yin said as people quieted down.
"Let's talk about the shelter issue first. All the cities have been divided into different areas, and professionals have planned the routes. The military will maintain and repair these national highways."
There is basically no disagreement about this point.
Everyone knows that this is to ensure communication between cities. In case of an accident in one city, such as a shortage of certain supplies, a neighboring city will provide support as quickly as possible.
"In addition, I have designated some blank areas to provide stability for some unruly individuals and ordinary people who want to establish their own independent entities," Shi Yin continued. "The state refuses to provide any assistance or support in any form."
"Statistics are compiled on a weekly basis. People are released once every 7 days, but no one is allowed to enter. Each person can take 3 days' worth of supplies with them when they leave."
As for what to do when those supplies run out, of course you'll have to find your own. You all want to go out and start your own businesses, do you really expect to come and buy things?
They're really treating themselves like they're shopping in a supermarket.
"You've all probably heard about the five of us knights. We'll protect our respective countries and extend our protection outwards. If any country wants global protection, we'll grant it."
"The premise is that it is valuable. Don't bring back a burden just to save face. If you want to protect a country for the sake of face and your own friendships, go protect it yourself. Don't come to me. After the list is submitted, we will conduct a second round of screening."
At this point, no one had any objections, and the only sound was the rustling of notes being taken in the conference room.
These statements are reasonable. It is clearly unrealistic to think that someone would risk saving others just to save face when they are struggling to take care of themselves.
However, there are some countries that deserve help, such as some resource-rich countries. Although their technology is not advanced, they are rich in resources. If they call Yanlong "big brother," then we should help them out.
Hello, hello, hello everyone.
"Furthermore, the end times are the end times for humanity, and you should be aware of the five different policies of our five great nations."
“Ishtar of Luland focuses more on the construction of shelters, Helmod of Wilren focuses more on technology and exploration, Tyr of Volga focuses more on combat, and Agarai of Milica focuses more on evasion.”
“Ishtar will build fortresses similar to human concentration camps, with communal labor and mutual assistance as the primary goals. Helmod will use technology to assist in exploration, development, and discovery. Tyr, needless to say, is all about combat. Agarai prefers to use complex terrain to avoid zombies as much as possible.”
"As for us, Yanlong, we prioritize the Fire Seed Project. The essence of the Fire Seed Project is selection—selecting those with the potential to be born, protecting and educating them, ensuring they reach the end and lead the continuation of human civilization."
"They want the best, selecting those with exceptional intelligence, strength, and character for intensive training, protection, concealment, cover-up, and inheritance... to ensure their continued existence."
These words caused an uproar. The plan seemed like a conclusion drawn when all other options were exhausted, which sent a chill down everyone's spine.
But Toki's attitude clearly tells people that humanity will eventually reach this point.
"But don't worry, everyone. We just have different focuses. The five plans are universal, it's just a matter of proportion."
For example, Yanlong and Volga value the Fire Seed Project the most and Agarai's Cobra Project the least. Yanlong Kingdom has too many people and can't find a place to hide. Volga is simply obsessed with fighting and can't hide at all.
Meanwhile, in Wilren, Helmod was engaged in technological development and exploration, but this had almost nothing to do with the Fireseed Project. They were either exploring or on their way to explore, and had no opportunity to reproduce.
Generally speaking, wherever they explore becomes their home. They can't just climb any tree and be all lovey-dovey with zombies all around them, can they?
That's not very realistic.
Milica's battle plan clashes with Volga's because Agaray is likely to choose unusual terrain, such as digging a hole in a cliff face or building an underground air-raid shelter.
Their motto is: escapism, though shameful, is useful.
And so on.
"However, the key point is that the personnel of our five countries are mobile and can make a choice once a month. That is to say, if you stay in Yanlong Kingdom this month and are not satisfied, you can choose one of the other four factions after a month."
"Of course, it's still a no-entry policy. The five of us have reached a consensus on this point. Everyone only has one chance to stay in a particular camp. In other words, if you are still dissatisfied after five attempts, you will be forcibly exiled."
"Therefore, please make your choice carefully after notifying everyone."
A month? That's a very short period.
"Won't the timeframe be too short and the staff turnover too high?" Someone raised their hand and asked. "High staff turnover will undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on our work. Perhaps it could be extended to a year."
“A slow turnover of personnel increases the potential for hidden dangers.” Shi Yin rejected this suggestion: “A fast turnover of personnel is itself a form of screening. Those who are not suitable for us or whose will is not firm should be driven away as soon as possible.”
