Chapter 152 - Man-made Disaster
Chapter 152: Man-made Disaster
“There’s something wrong!”
“There’s definitely something wrong!”
Alucard, who was in the scepter, screamed.
The Cat goddess, Bastet was an unusual existence.
She was a God!
How would she be someone’s pet just so easily?
Not to mention, this was the east.
In this land, it was said that: “even if she was a god, if she wasn’t registered, it would be still illegal for her to be there”.
The Special Affairs Department of this country, the so-called Blackguard, blatantly interfered with the supernatural being’s affairs.
The stronger they were, the more they would be under supervision!
According to the foreign species that escaped from this country, there was no need to talk about feasting on humans here.
Even if they were to accidentally use a spell, they would have to go to jail once they were detected!
Hence, the supernatural being who was high and mighty on the Land of Qin lived on the same street as the mortals, sharing the same water pipe in that place.
That was simply unimaginable to the Land of Qin!
The god-chosen nobles had their residences.
The neighbors of the god-chosen nobles must also be the God-chosen nobles!
The children of the god-chosen nobles could only attend schools attended by the children of other god-chosen nobles!
A well-known university basically only recruited the descendants of the god-chosen nobles!
Unlike in the east, the children of the supernatural being also needed to attend school with mortal children.
If they didn’t do well in the exams, they would still fail!
So, how could the Blackguard of this country not know about the existence of the cat goddess?
They knew!
“Mr. Alucard…” Integral said softly, “What you said is right…”
“But…”
“We have no way of getting near him!”
That was a very obvious matter.
That young man from the east was obviously the target of attention.
As for them, they had already been targeted once they entered the country.
The commander-in-chief of the Blackguard might be waiting for them to break the rules of this country to attack them openly!
“Of course, we can’t touch them!” Alucard’s evil voice came from the scepter. “But we can leak this information to those lunatics in the Brotherhood!”
“They will want to know why the Cat Goddess is in the East!”
The Brotherhood was a very ancient organization.
No one knew when they originated.
But one thing was certain. They had appeared since the beginning of the recovery of psionic energy.
They appeared even before the first transcendent being.
That was also a secret organization. Very few people knew who the members of this organization were.
Unless they appeared, almost no one knew of their existence.
These people were all lunatics!
Even Alucard wouldn’t easily deal with them unless it was necessary.
Because the thoughts of lunatics were something that others couldn’t fathom.
In short, for two hundred years, the Brotherhood had been secretly active in the Land of Qin and Kunlun State.
They had secretly carried out many terrible plots.
Moreover, they had been secretly infiltrating Egypt.
During the last Order of the Temple, they had taken away the statues of the cat goddess enshrined in the Hoover Pyramid, and there were signs that the Brotherhood had made a move.
Alucard knew that in fact, the Order of the Temple was just a chess piece pushed out by the Brotherhood.
The ones who wanted the cat goddess were the lunatics!
Therefore, Alucard knew that as long as those lunatics knew that the cat goddess was in the east.
Even if they would die, they would still come.
… … … … … ..
It was almost ten o’clock when he got home.
Ling Pingan opened the door of the shop and put the kitten, Bastet down.
As soon as the kitten landed, she ran up the stairs at an extremely quick speed.
Ling Pingan looked at it and shook his head. He knew that the kitten was worried about the things it had hidden upstairs.
But the problem was that there were not even cockroaches in this house.
Who would steal the things it had hidden?
But…
Who would be worried that their pet was too smart?
Ling Pingan sat down and turned on the computer. He looked at the document and said, “Let’s prepare to write!”
“No matter what, I have to write another chapter today. I have to get to 20,000 words!”
And so, he started typing.
Today, he was in good condition. Perhaps it was because he had just paid the IQ tax.
He wrote more than 3,000 words in one go.
Looking at the number of words on the document, he smiled. After checking, he felt that it was not bad, so he merged the documents.
Then, he opened the penguin icon on the computer, found his editor, and sent a message. “Expert, are you there?”
Today was a holiday, but the editor was still online. Not long after, he sent a message. “Yes! What’s the matter?”
“Expert, please take a look at the beginning of my new book!” Ling Pingan sent the document over at once.
“Okay!” The other side immediately replied with a nodding emoji and then typed a reply, “I’ll give you an answer this afternoon!”
Ling Pingan turned off the penguin icon in satisfaction.
He let out a long sigh of relief and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “My new book will prove to be equivalent to the five scholar’s book in the Central Plains! It will become the new God of web literature!”
He was very confident in his new book!
He was as confident as every other book he had read written before!
Therefore, he crossed his legs and turned on the television without any worry.
It was already noon, just in time for the afternoon news.
“The weather in Nanyang continues to be bad…”
“According to the Federal Empire’s Meteorological Bureau, the rainfall in the main areas of Nanyang will not decrease from today to tomorrow!”
“Among them, the Lanfang Gonghe and Samboja kingdoms will encounter the heaviest rainfall of the year!”
“Due to the tropical cyclone, the Luzon kingdom may receive super typhoon ‘banana’ from tonight to tomorrow…”
“It is estimated that the entire area of Luzon will be affected by the typhoon.”
“Experts estimate that the typhoon season in Nanyang will last until the end of this month…”
“The Metropolitan Territory of the Federal Empire will also be affected by this super typhoon!”
“From tonight to tomorrow, Guangnan, Fujian, and other coastal areas may receive the first heavy rain of this month…”
“Especially on Guangnan West Road, the typhoon may land from Beihai and invade Yongzhou…”
“The Meteorological Bureau reminds the general public to prepare for heavy rain!”
Ling Pingan looked at the news and shook his head.
He was quite used to the typhoon weather.
However, it was the first time he had seen the current combination of typhoons, heavy rain, and typhoons together in Nanyang.
He looked at the television footage of the flooded towns and roads.
Ling Pingan leaned back in his chair, took out his phone, and opened his WeChat read, intending to read the comments from the netizens.
Therefore, he searched on WeChat read.
In the end, he found an article with the title: “Yun Mengze is coming back!”!
“Yun Mengze?” Ling Pingan frowned.
Therefore, he opened the article and read it.
The article was quite long and well written. It could fool people.
At the very least, after Ling Pingan read it, he felt that the author’s judgment was possible.
Because the truth was right in front of him!
In recent years, the global climate had been continuously warming, causing all kinds of strange weather.
The typhoons, torrential rains, and floods in the Nanyang were the consequences of climate warming at the moment!
However…
In this article, the author believed that global warming was not necessarily a bad thing.
Especially for the Metropolitan Territory!
Especially for the northern part of the metropolitan territory that lacked drought.
He predicted that in the next three to five years, as the climate got warmer…
The arid areas of the northern part, especially the Hexi Corridor and Guanzhong Basin, would resume the rainfall of the Han and Tang dynasties.
What did this mean?
The 800-mile Qinchuan, the Kingdom of Heaven, was coming back.
The Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall, the grassland at the foot of the Qilian Mountains, was coming back.
Of course, for the southern part, there was a slight disadvantage. The Yun Mengze of the Han and Tang dynasties might also be coming back!
Guangnan would once again become the rainy and humid Lingnan.
The center of gravity of the economy and population would shift from the south to the north.
“Go back to two thousand years ago in one night?” Ling Pingan scratched his head. “This is too much of a fantasy!”
However, even if such a thing happened, it wouldn’t have much to do with ordinary citizens like him.
Even if the sky fell, there were still tall people holding it up!
… … … ..
Li Anan stood in front of the window and looked out at the city that was in strong winds.
A typhoon was coming!
It brought with it a large amount of rain!
The estimation was that this afternoon, the amount of rain in Lanfang Gonghe would exceed 300 millimeters!
That might trigger a new wave of floods.
The flood resistance army that came from the metropolitan territory had already arrived at Lanfang.
However, if the weather did not change…
Relying on manpower alone, even a high-tech mechanized human army might not be able to contend against the strength of nature!
“Have you compared all the data?” Li Anan asked Chu Weiwei, who was walking over.
“Yes!” Chu Weiwei replied, “We have just sent all the data were collected to the Federal Empire’s Central Computing Center!”
“The scientists from the Ministry of Meteorology and the environment will immediately start using the Kunpeng Super Computing Center to conduct simulations…”
“I believe that the results will appear!”
Li Anan nodded. “Let’s hope it’s a natural disaster!”
Chu Weiwei nodded as well. “Let’s hope it’s a natural disaster!”
That was because the natural disaster would eventually pass.
What they were afraid of was a man-made disaster!
If they did not find the source of the man-made disaster, this wave of disaster would spread endlessly.
Tonight, the typhoon would land on the metropolitan territory from Beihai.
If this continued, more and more typhoons would land on the Metropolitan Territory!
Moreover, if the disaster continued to spread, a large number of disaster victims would appear in the Nanyang countries.
Could the federal empire watch helplessly as these disaster victims, who had lost their homes became hungry and cold?
Impossible!
The Benevolent and Righteous Federal Empire would not sit idly by.
However, the population of the Nanyang region was in the hundreds of millions. Even if only one-tenth of the population were affected, it would still be tens of millions of disaster victims!
Tens of millions of disaster victims. Just the food and clothing that they would need to provide would require an unknown number of resources!
At this moment, the phone rang.
Chu Weiwei immediately walked over and picked up the phone.
“Hmm, I’m First Lieutenant Chu Weiwei…”
“Hmm…”
“The results are out?”
“Yes…”
“Understood!”
She put down the phone and looked at Li Anan with a strange expression.
“Captain…” she gulped. “I’m afraid that the thing we’re most worried about has appeared…”
“The Department of Meteorology and Environment’s disaster warning department said that the results are out…”
“The comprehensive meteorological satellite, the number of rainfall and typhoons reported by the Nanyang countries, their intensity…”
“There is a huge gap between the typhoon and heavy rainfall data that hit the Nanyang countries over the past few days and the simulated amount of water evaporation in the western Pacific Ocean as well as the energy of the tropical cyclone!”
“At least one-third of the rainwater and energy is extra!”
Li Anan took a deep breath after hearing this and said to Chu Weiwei, “Call for backup!”
“This is a definite man-made disaster!”
But the problem was…
Who could control the weather?
What kind of terrifying existence was a person or power that could control the weather?
