Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train Chapter 1389 539: Black Umbrella Plan
Previously on Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train...
"Are you saying you want to acquire all the nuclear power energy units from the reserve stockpile?"
"No, it also includes the entire Kunlun Central's reserve weapons cache and all survivor vehicles."
"Have you considered that this would make us lose our means of resistance to the outside?"
"It seems we don't need to fight a prolonged war, right? Plus, given the current situation, it seems we no longer need cars and trains for escape, except for starships."
"Okay, we agree to your terms, but we need you to participate in the subsequent war council." The Phoenix Society representative said, "Sword Holder Lin Xian, you are in a poor state, and we are very concerned. Since entering the 'greenhouse,' you have not slept or eaten for over 72 hours. Should we be worried about your mental state?"
"Let me contact my partners, I must confirm their safety."
"Sorry, you know the reason; we cannot let you contact the outside world. To some extent, we believe there is no safe place throughout Kunlun City or even Blue Star, and our conversations are transparent to the Foundation."
"Can I know their situation?"
"Yes, I know you're worried that the Foundation's accusations against you might put your partners in the Infinite Alliance at risk and under pressure, but there's absolutely no need to worry. In Kunlun City, all alliances and organizations have disbanded and dispersed, except for your core partners. But everyone knows that these people are very powerful, and now the Sky Dome Train is our important collaborative unit, so there's no need to worry."
After the communication, in the following days, Wen Zhuo opened the sky dome, and one nuclear power device after another was cast into the abyss.
The engineers didn't know where these devices were headed, but after falling into the abyss, they quickly became silent.
At this moment, above the 'greenhouse' snow mountain lake, the mechanical light curtain resembled a resplendent void blueprint, deconstructing those precise devices bit by bit, decomposing them into disappearance.
But Lin Xian was not busy; now his Mechanical Heart had automatically started operating, devouring. He spent most of his time in a drunken state, trying not to think or be anxious.
The person in charge, Wen Zhuo, kept observing his condition. In a short time, Lin Xian had become unkempt and weary-faced, looking as if he had aged ten years. Every day he sat by the lake, fishing with a rod.
Like a meditating stone statue.
Lin Xian's first participation in the war council meeting was through holographic imaging technology.
"The Curtain Explorer Plan has failed; the Heavenly Veil is confirmed to be unable to penetrate with S-Class biological signals anymore, even with the enhancement of signals through the Dark Energy Synchronization Device."
"So now we only have the thermonuclear phased array solution?"
"This plan is overly aggressive; the Heavenly Veil is only 10,000 meters high, too low, and it requires enough thermonuclear weapons to destroy the entire Kunlun City, akin to suicide. Moreover, at the beginning of Apocalypse Day, we tried using nuclear weapons to detonate on the Heavenly Veil, with no effect. Clearly, it's not a matter of physical destructive power."
"Yes, it is now confirmed that the entire Heavenly Veil is a special force field supplying energy to the High Tower Civilization, and unless we reach a higher energy level to destroy it, it is impossible to be effective."
"And the energy level we can create is almost negligible compared to their dimensional power."
"So, are we doomed?"
"No, we don't want to sit and wait for death."
"The council's plan is to prepare an active counterattack against the Tower People before the crimson covers the polar region, as they are undergoing Blue Star's dimensional transformation. However, the process has not finished; they need massive energy for the transformation, so we believe this process might be disruptible and stoppable."
"Stop?" Lin Xian asked, "Do you mean to defeat the Tower People head-on?"
"Some strategic goals don't necessarily require defeating the enemy to achieve. A great leader from Dragon Country once proposed a military strategy of winning in chaos. If there's no opportunity, create one, and create conditions for strategic counterattack. As long as the world's dimensional ascension is incomplete, we can attack, and perhaps we can find a chance."
"It sounds very helpless."
"But this is the only method and our only chance for an active strike because waiting is meaningless."
"So the question now is how do we make people believe we still have hope?" Li Heping said, "Or, where does our confidence come from?"
"Are you worried that if people know the Phoenix Society is powerless against the Heavenly Veil, it will lead the Foundation's rumors to erode the survivors' will?" Lin Xian asked.
"Yes, that's inevitable. In desperation, even the craziest rumor can be a fatal blow," said a member of the North American Committee.
"The Foundation's move is terrifying and will significantly harm our unity in desperation," said a member of the European Commission.
"Is there a solution?"
"We currently have a plan."
"What is it?"
Li Heping, as the chairman of the Phoenix Society, said, "The current Heavenly Veil can be regarded as a Dyson sphere covering the entire Blue Star, but this is an energy force field rather than a material body. The High Tower Civilization uses this veil combined with 13 Star Abyss black curtains to absorb energy, thereby releasing crimson dimensional particles, then uses these dimensional particles to transform Blue Star. This process takes time, and we are also unsure of the time it takes for the Yuniga Angel to devour and synthesize and what the perfect life form means to the High Tower Civilization. But we believe that the angel's life form can only exist in the High Tower Civilization's special dimension, and in the current three-dimensional world, this life form is not perfect."
