Chapter 977: Sea-crossing and intercepting foreign invasion
On the open ocean, a cruise ship was sailing on the sea, its bow cutting through the surging sea water, stirring up white waves.
After the two major state-owned enterprises took over the ocean, they carried out the construction of various facilities on each key island. Therefore, there have been many transport ships and cruise ships traveling on the sea in recent years, and this ordinary ship is not at all noticeable among them.
In a first-class cabin on the upper deck that was connected to the interior, golden sunlight came in from the thick window glass. Chen Chuan was leaning against the cabin wall, flipping through a book in his hands as the sound of waves came in.
He was wearing a plaid casual shirt. Although it was December, the weather was still warm because of the warm wind blowing across the waterway.
At his age, at first glance, he doesn't look like the director of the Central City's Defense Department at all. Instead, he looks like a young man who has just entered a higher education institution.
But once he stood up, or talked to someone eye to eye, it would be difficult to contain his fighter's external aura, because the fighter's movement rhythm and unique temperament could not be hidden at all.
Chaoming stood at the window and looked outside. It had been staying here very well-behaved these past few days, without making any sound. The water and food were also prepared for it by Chen Chuan. If there was no one around, it would have no idea that there was a living creature here.
The book in Chen Chuan's hand is a translated document from the federal government, a past publication of the New Light Church. Even though this sect is recognized as a cult internationally, it actually has great power and can appear openly in many formal occasions, including the state parliament. Some members of parliament are likely to be members of this sect in private.
He had encountered some members of this sect before when he entered the lower city, but they had already been wiped out.
The content of this publication tells the story of the annihilation of a tribe of primitive people. The eyewitness first pretended to be a wounded hunter to enter the territory. After being rescued by the tribe members by chance, he made friends with the primitive people there, gained their trust, and obtained intelligence from the tribe.
When the strongest warriors of the tribe went out hunting, he spread the word and asked the Guardians to encircle them, and then raided the tribe, taking all men, women, young and old to the organ factory. Only those with special talents were selected, brainwashed and made into tools of the sect.
There are many detailed descriptions of the person involved in this book. This person does not feel the slightest bit of shame or uneasiness, and there is a sense of complacency between the lines.
They even openly compiled and published what they had done, seemingly not caring at all about being seen by the people of the First People. Because in their eyes, the First People were ignorant and just a group of "walking animals."
After reading it, Chen Chuan's eyes became slightly deep. He learned from the intelligence that this matter was mainly promoted by the people of the Xinguang Sect. In the past few days on the road, he had been reading relevant information about this sect.
At this time, there was a rhythmic knock on the door outside.
He said, "Come in."
After the door opened, the attendant who followed him came in and handed over the documents wrapped in a paper bag.
"Director, this is a telegram from Central City. We have translated it with your permission."
Chen Chuan said, "Okay, put it down." The attendant saluted and left.
Chen Chuan stood up and picked up the paper bag. In addition to the site progress sent by the Central City Government Office every day, there was also a coded communication from the General Affairs Bureau, which told him that there was no problem with the intelligence. The Federation sent new intelligence every day to ensure that there would be no accidents in his operation this time.
In addition to these two items, there was also a letter from Skarsson.
He said that he reported this incident to his superiors, and the investigation team thanked him again and sent him a rough investigation report made by the investigation team in the past, which showed the growth rate of fighters around the world in the past few decades.
He watched for a moment and understood what Skarsson meant.
Take Jibei Road as an example. Excluding him, no one else has become a fighter in the past ten years, and the same is true for other central cities.
Most of the fighters he met were already quite old, and almost all of them had accumulated over the past ninety years. There was an explosion in the Major League during that period, and after that, many fighters were alienated and died on the front line.
Although the number of fighters in the world has been increasing due to the advancement of technology and the times, a slight fluctuation or war may cause this data to drop sharply. There are far fewer fighters than they think.
It’s just that the fighter’s lifespan is limited, and some stationed people can often exist for dozens or even hundreds of years, so their presence is very strong.
In fact, when Skarsson wrote this letter, he still had not given up his original idea. He wanted to use an obscure method to inform him of the current serious situation in the world, hoping to leave room for maneuver when taking action.
Chen Chuan thought about it and realized that the other party was indeed an idealist. This premise actually had an assumption, that is, everyone would unite to fight against the outside world.
However, some people may not necessarily be helpful, but may even become obstacles. If they are eliminated, it will actually benefit the overall situation. Apart from anything else, the example of Korva is still there, and that is within the major leagues, not to mention the world.
Every country, every force, or every person is pursuing their own interests, and contradictions will always exist. If someone targets you, it is impossible for you not to fight back, not to mention that some people may have already stood on the opposite side of the world. If you encounter this, you must resolutely eliminate it.
There was a flash of light in his hand, and all the letters turned into ashes and fell into the storage box on the side.
He stood up, glanced at the sunlight outside, went up to lock the cabin door, then sat down cross-legged to practice some daily breathing techniques.
Since departing from Central City, the cruise ship has docked at ports at every stop, boarding and disembarking passengers, seemingly just like any other cruise ship. The attendants on board only knew that there might be some important guests aboard, but no other information was known.
Since the overseas areas have been controlled by two major state-owned enterprises, they have vigorously cracked down on some federally supported pirate organizations and overseas local forces at sea. The results are remarkable so far. The main shipping routes are now relatively safe. Therefore, even though there are many places to stay, they reached the Anying Islands on December 14, which is the location of the central city of Haidong Road.
There was actually some debate about the location of the central city, but it was ultimately decided to locate it here. Because the Anying Islands have an existing military port and a large population, it is both a tourist destination and has a certain industrial infrastructure, making it an ideal location for the central city.
Moreover, this place is less than half a day's journey from Erwen Island Langtao Pavilion, and Feng Heshou, who has accepted Dashun's recruitment, is right next to it, so safety can be absolutely guaranteed.
It takes at most two or three days to get here from Dashun mainland by airship. It is relatively easy to deploy forces here from land, and it will not cause too much trouble to the Linax Federation.
After arriving here, Chen Chuan did not get off the ship, but stood on the highest deck of the cruise ship and looked at the newly built central city from afar.
Compared with when he arrived here half a year ago, many high-rise buildings have been erected here, and some are still under construction, including the branch company building that integrates the boundaries.
Because it had obtained a lot of business from the Ferris Wheel Company last time, and in view of some connections with Chen Chuan, the Fusion Boundary Company also won a number of orders and was allowed to become the first company to enter Haidong Road. For this, Meng Shu even called to thank him.
If this place can be well built, a powerful radiation belt can definitely be established with it as the center, including most of the islands in the outer ocean. With the current population and resources in the outer ocean, there will be no problem in supplying two fighters.
Just as he was looking towards the island, two young men from the central city came to the temporary signal management office in the central city and submitted a letter of approval.
Because the 23rd of this month is the 80th birthday of an old man, and this day happens to be the first day after the signals between the two places are connected.
So several young people with ideas sent people over, preparing to use the venues in these two places to celebrate the birthday remotely.
This is definitely a very meaningful and face-saving thing, because this service is only open on a trial basis after the connection. Being eligible to apply is only a prerequisite, and it must also be approved by the Government Affairs Department. They are one of the special approval candidates.
However, after arriving here, there are still some complicated procedures to go through, and they need to confirm the final information transmission, so they need to stay until the birthday day.
The cruise ship stayed at the port for a day and then continued its journey at night.
Another day later, around eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Chuan put on his clothes, put on a hat, put on a jade-like mask, picked up the Xuejun Knife, and walked out of here. The red scarf fluttered and wrapped itself around his neck.
He walked out of the cabin and looked at the sea in the distance.
According to the coordinates on the map, the place where the three people gathered was just ahead, and the vehicles they were riding were all airships.
In such a large sea area, the most they can do is patrol the main shipping lanes, and they definitely cannot stop a few airships, especially since the Linax Federation has an island in the outer ocean. If they take off from there, they can reach this area within two or three days.
However, once the central city of Haidong Road is built, it will become a solid fortress on the sea, which will be able to completely block the enemy outside this barrier, so those West Coast parties are so anxious.
In fact, the East Coast Party is much more sober than them at this moment, because they know that there is no next twenty years for them to invest their energy overseas, so it is better for them to turn around and head to the Western Continent to seek more benefits there.
After Chen Chuan identified the direction, he jumped down from here and landed easily on the sea surface. Then he stepped on the ground, and a cloud of mist exploded with a bang, and he ran towards there.
