Planet Builder

Chapter 173 The World War Begins! (8000)

Academy of Sciences, department.

In the dean's office, Kong Qingzheng was modifying a machine design, and he had been working on it for eight hours.

For young people, even though they are tired for eight hours in a row, they can still persevere.

But Kong Qing is 89 years old this year! In human society, this is already a very old man. His energy and physical strength are not as good as that of young people. Such high-intensity work makes him extremely tired.

His skin is dry, his head is covered with silver threads, and the wrinkles on his face are full of traces of years. His whole body shows the fragility of an aging human being. Only in his eyes, there is still the light of wisdom.

"Teacher, let's take a break." Xu Tengbin, his student and assistant, said softly, "These jobs are endless."

Kong Qing marked the plan and said with a smile, "Yes, life is never finished, and scientific exploration is never ending!"

He looked at Xu Tengbin. This young man was a student he accepted last year and one of the scientists rescued by the Xuanwu Army from the Noah Science Society.

Xu Tengbin was very talented and pure academically, so he was favored by Kong Qing and accepted as one of his students.

"Unfortunately, human life has an end, and we will never know the secrets of the universe." Xu Tengbin said with emotion.

Kong Qing took a deep look at him, then laughed and said, "It is precisely because of the unknown that science and life are full of fun! If everything is known, what's the point of living?"

Xu Tengbin added: "Now biotechnology and mechanical technology can make people live longer. If teachers make changes, they can continue to enjoy the fun of exploring the unknown."

Kong Qing said, "My body that's half-cut to the ground can't stand the toss."

An old man of his age can no longer afford the experiment of mechanical transformation. The genetic modification technology is not yet mature.

"In my life, as long as I finish the rest of this matter, I will die without regrets!"

Kong Qing pointed to the design in front of him, which was the design of a particle collider. Particle collider is one of the important equipments for studying fundamental physics.

It uses the high-speed collision of particles to simulate the situation produced by the big bang of the universe, which is of great significance to the exploration of cutting-edge science such as "Higgs boson", "dark matter" and "dark energy".

In order to speed up the development of human science and technology, Kong Qing led the formation of a particle collider research group.

They are building a large particle collider in the land of Yanzhao and Shanhaiguan.

"I hope humans can last until that time." Xu Tengbin's tone was calm.

"Let's go, pack up." Kong Qing said, "Go to Shanhaiguan and think about our particle collider!"

...

North, somewhere.

In a military community, a sturdy man in his fifties was walking back slowly, followed by two guards.

Those who saw him greeted him warmly: "General Qin."

"Hello, General Qin!"

"Old Qin has gone home?"

"Yes, take the time to come back and have a look." Qin Peng greeted these neighbors and former comrades with a smile.

Coming to the front of the building, the guard said, "General, we're going to stand guard."

"Well." Qin Peng nodded.

He walked up with the vegetables, came to the door, hesitated a little, and finally rang the doorbell.

Inside the house, a half-old lady is writing a manuscript in her study. She is Qin Peng's wife, Zou Qinghan, who is also a journalist.

Hearing the doorbell ringing, Zou Qinghan stopped working and asked, "Who is it?"

Through the intelligent system, the sound can be conveyed outside the door.

"Qinghan, it's me." A magnetic voice sounded.

When Zou Qinghan heard this voice, her body trembled. She naturally knew who it was, the commander known all over the world, Qin Peng.

It has been nine years since the implementation of the Xuanwu plan, and he has not returned home for nine years!

Nine years ago, Zou Qinghan had only met him a few times during the mission.

She rushed to the door, opened it, and threw herself into Qin Peng's arms, sobbing: "You're back? I miss you so much!"

"I miss you too." Qin Peng hugged her, sniffed her scent, and closed the door.

"How long can you stay this time?" Zou Qinghan looked up at him, with a bit of unease in his red eyes.

"Three days." Qin Peng said truthfully, "In three days, I will go to the Xuanwu base. Now the planetary beasts are about to start a world war."

"Well." Zou Qinghan knew that she couldn't ask for anything more like other women. Living in such an era, there are always people who have to endure loneliness and move forward with a heavy burden!

The three-day period was extremely short, so short that neither of them noticed it, and it had already passed.

"Commander, the plane is ready," the guard reported on the communicator.

"I'll be there in ten minutes." Qin Peng hung up the communication and looked at his wife.

This time, she didn't cry, but her body kept shaking slightly.

"This battle..." Qin Peng was about to speak when Zou Qinghan said, "I understand! I am not the only one who needs you, everyone needs you!"

Qin Peng looked at her and was filled with emotion. Who doesn't want to live in an era of peace and tranquility, but this world is so cruel!

He stepped forward again, embraced Zou Qinghan deeply, and whispered in her ear: "However, with a body of seven feet, it has already been granted to the country, and it is difficult to grant permission again!"

After saying that, he relented and turned to leave.

"I'll wait for you to come back!" Zou Qinghan cried.

...

"Mom, I'm fine." In the giant mecha training camp, Xu Zhilan was on a video call with her mother Yin Jing.

Yin Jing looked at the healthy and beautiful daughter in the picture and said with a smile, "You are good at everything, but you are too competitive."

"I heard that there will be no peace in the future, you have to be careful."

"Mom, I know." Xu Zhilan said.

"If you encounter any danger, you must pay attention to protect yourself." Yin Jing urged tirelessly.

"What are you talking about?" Xu Zhilan's father Xu Bo said solemnly, "My daughter is Academician He's guard. If you are in danger, you must first protect Academician He! That's the first rule!"

Xu Zhilan smiled and said, "Of course I know! With me, he will not be in danger!"

"It's almost!" Xu Bo said.

...

In a food street outside a university, several old classmates are having a party.

"It's been a long time since I've been here, it feels like ten years have passed!" Huang Sheng said with emotion, and he shouted to the proprietress who was doing barbecue: "Auntie, give us another fifty strings of kidneys!"

The proprietress smiled and said, "I'll be here soon! I'll send you two more cases of beer!"

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Huang Sheng shouted.

"Why not?" said the proprietress, "Auntie saw you on TV, performed a mission in a mecha, and made a great contribution. Today, this beer aunt must give it away!"

"Haha!" Huang Sheng laughed, "I would have accepted it before, but now I can't. I'm from the Xuanwu Army anyway, so I can't drink without giving me money, I'll be punished."

"Huang Sheng, you've really changed!" Hong Xu, a classmate, said in surprise, "It wasn't like this in school before!"

"Yes, not only Huang Sheng, but also Zeng Weihao." Another classmate said, "When they said they wanted to join the army, we didn't believe it."

"I didn't expect that one is now the captain of the mecha unit, and another is working in the Academy of Military Sciences!"

Zeng Weihao smiled and said, "I'm just a little researcher, and Huang Sheng is much better than me."

"Old Zeng, don't slander me!" Huang Sheng laughed. "We mecha soldiers have to rely on you scientific gurus to study weapons? Otherwise, as soon as we enter the battlefield, we will be eaten by bugs every minute!"

"Business blows each other, business blows each other!"

Everyone was eating and chatting. After drinking in their thirties, Hong Xu asked, "What's the situation now? One hundred million soldiers are recruited, and war preparations are being made everywhere?"

Zeng Weihao said, "It's hard to say."

Huang Sheng also wondered: "I can't say anything. Anyway, we will always have a battle with these bugs. Let's all be well, and I hope we will have a chance to meet again in the future."

Hearing their words, several of the classmates were shocked, and they always felt that a war was about to happen.

Hong Xu raised his glass and said, "Let's not ask any more questions, let's drink one first, and wish ours can defeat the Zerg!"

"cheers!"

...

In He Xingzhou's house, He Xingzhou's family of four is eating.

"Mengyao, is it really okay for you to implant that biochip?" Jiang Manrong looked at He Mengyao worriedly, she was nibbling on a big chicken leg and a mouthful of oil.

"It's okay, Mom, don't you believe me, don't you believe my brother?" He Mengyao said wholeheartedly, "My brother said it, it's definitely fine."

Jiang Manrong looked at He Xingzhou, He Xingzhou nodded and said: "There is no problem with the biochip, it is the storage. Now Mengyao is equivalent to a genius who will never forget!"

"The same is true for what quantum chip?" He Qihang asked curiously.

"Almost, it's just that the implantation of quantum chips is higher than that of biochips." He Xingzhou said while eating, "I think in a few years, biochips and biocomputer technology should catch up."

He Mengyao continued: "Yes, in the future, we humans can be genetically modified to become superhumans and live longer!"

"Prolonging life, can you still live a few hundred years?" Jiang Manrong said with a smile.

"Hundreds of years old?" He Mengyao exaggeratedly said, "At least a few thousand years old, tens of thousands of years old!"

"That's all fine!" He Qihang said, "We can live our lives in peace and quiet, and we'll be content."

"Yeah." Jiang Manrong agreed, "Our family is pretty good, and the whole family is safe. How many people in this world have encountered misfortune?"

"The global human population has decreased by two-thirds in just nine years!" He Qihang also sighed, "I read online that if they want to face the threat of the Zerg, many people would rather their lives be before the era of cataclysm. It's over."

"It will get better." He Xingzhou comforted, "At least where we live, we can still enjoy peace."

"So—" Jiang Manrong asked, "When are you going to get married?"

"Ah?" He Xingzhou was taken aback, why did the topic turn here?

He hurriedly said, "I'm not in a hurry, but Meng Yao, who should be thinking about lifelong events!"

"Brother, what does this have to do with me, don't change the subject!" He Mengyao said dissatisfied.

...

He Xingzhou came to a secret base in the south.

This is also one of the Xuanwu bases. The Xuanwu base in the middle has been discovered by the Zerg due to several deployments of the air carrier.

To be on the safe side, He Xingzhou transferred the research on the mechanical behemoth to the southern base of Xuanwu.

In the southern base, He Xingzhou stood on the underground research platform, looking at the behemoth in front of him - the mechanical behemoth, the king of spiny back horns.

It is about the same size as the original Baikal Insect King, more than 800 meters long and 200 meters high, and its whole body is made of special metals.

Pure metal limbs, torso, various bionic organs, if not for the metallic luster, it looks like a planetary beast has been resurrected!

He Xingzhou designed two control modes for the horned hornworm king, one is AI intelligent control, and the other is controlled by a driver who has transformed a person or implanted a quantum chip.

AI control is not safe, and most planetary behemoths have electromagnetic interference capabilities, so it is necessary to have a driver.

"Activate the mechanical horned hornworm king!" He Xingzhou said to Xuanwu.

"Starting the mechanical spiny hornworm king!" Under the stands, the huge mechanical behemoth began to move, and its nuclear fusion energy core began to release energy, which was transported to its various parts through cables.

The anti-gravity device was activated, and this behemoth slowly supported the torso weighing hundreds of thousands of tons!

"Activated!" The researchers all looked at the mechanical behemoth with excitement and joy in their eyes.

"Move!" He Xingzhou continued to issue instructions to test its related performance.

The mechanical spiny back horn king began to move to the huge underground test area.

The mechanical feet alternate, and it walks smoothly. He Xingzhou tested the anti-gravity system, which can make it fly like an air carrier.

Because the space here is limited, it is only allowed to fly one meter above the ground.

Coming to the test area, He Xingzhou began to test its weapon system.

"Generate a strong magnetic field!"

A strong magnetic field is generated around the mechanical spiny back horn insect king, and the equipment in the field directly alarms. If the magnetic field continues to strengthen, it will be destroyed here.

"Stop!" He Xingzhou could only stop temporarily, and then let it generate an "electric field".

Around the mechanical-level hornworm king, surrounded by thunder and lightning, it is very similar to the previous Baikal insect king.

"Testing electric field stability, electric field strength..."

The test of the Mechanical Horned Insect King is all normal. It has the same ability as the planetary behemoth except that it cannot be devoured and evolved!

This is just one of the mechanical behemoths made by He Xingzhou. He has also designed many other types of mechanical behemoths, and the Blue Star Alliance's factories are constantly rushing to make them.

...

More than half a year has passed, and the five major forces on Blue Star have begun to test each other's strength, and the situation is becoming more and more tense.

The Mana Insect King sent troops to attack the Blue Star Alliance several times, but failed. It itself has never appeared once, and its behavior is much more cautious than before.

The Aura insect king and the Noah insect king also sent the insect swarm to conduct a wave of contests. More than a billion insect races and a dozen head insect kings died, and neither side defeated the other.

The Sunbird Biotechnology Company, as if it was invisible, did not take the initiative to attack any forces. Everyone knows that they are accumulating strength.

...

In the southern sea area, an aircraft carrier fleet of the Blue Star Alliance is conducting daily cruise activities to clear the Zerg in the nearby waters.

"The number of nearby Zerg has increased recently!" Under the ocean, Tian Ming, the driver of the deep-sea battleship, used an arc weapon to kill the Zerg while reporting the situation to the mothership. "The average frequency of occurrence has increased by 30%."

"Prepare to return..." Tian Ming was about to return when a high-energy warning appeared on the instrument: "High-energy response detected, warning, warning!"

"What's the situation?" He clenched the steering wheel with both hands, and saw a fiery ray shot from the bottom of the sea, hitting the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

In the deep sea, a giant beast is floating.

"It's a planetary beast!" Tian Ming immediately reported, "The planetary beast is coming, the planetary beast is coming!"

The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier was cut in half by rays and was exploding. The crew on the ship hurriedly entered the flying mech or the deep-sea mech to escape.

"It's the Mana King, all evacuate! Command, ask for help!" The crew on the mothership hurriedly asked for help.

On other ships, some ships tried to attack the Mana King with plasma rays, but with little success. The tonnage of their ships was not enough, and the power of the plasma rays was not enough, and the Mana Bug King directly ignored their attack.

A huge head floated out of the sea, it opened its mouth, atomic rays swept across, and the aircraft carrier fleet broke or exploded.

In less than a minute, a fleet of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers sank here.

Most of the crew escaped using aircraft and mechs, but some were killed.

"This damn mana worm king has come to invade my waters again!" Qin Peng was furious at the Blue Star Alliance headquarters, and said, "The first one will be the one to cut it and kill it!"

"Send the space carrier to attack!" From the Xuanwu base, five space carriers flew out to the target area.

Before these helicarriers arrived, the mana bug sank back into the sea and hid.

"The sea area is my territory, the natives, just wait to die!" The Mana Insect King is very proud. On land, it may not be able to defeat the Blue Star Alliance, but in the sea, it can attack at any time, and humans can't stop it at all!

"It ran away!" Seeing this scene, everyone was even more angry.

"We can't let it go on like this, or our marine power will be slowly destroyed!" Qin Peng thought, "Our maritime patrol circle has been shrunk to the near sea. If this continues, we will die slowly!"

"If we don't do anything, we will be the ones who will perish first!"

"We're going to lock the Mana King in the nest, or even destroy it!"

"Then build a military base in the Mariana Islands and hold the Mana Bug King to death!" He Hongwei opened the map and pointed to one place.

The Mariana Islands are on the edge of the Mariana Trench, and there are several famous islands on it, such as Guam, Saipan, Tinian, Rota and so on.

There used to be a White Eagle military base there before, which was later destroyed by the Zerg.

"Helicarrier, change direction, go to the Mariana Islands, and clean up the Zerg on the islands!" Qin Peng gave an order, "Other troops are ready to support, we will build a military base on the Mariana Islands, and see if it doesn't come out. !"

The Mana Insect King was about to return to his Mariana Trench worm nest, but found several helicarriers flying in that direction.

"The sky carrier can't go into the sea. As long as you dare to come to the trench, one will die!" The Mana Insect King was thinking and received a report from his subordinates.

The Advanced Insect King Black Whale Report: "My king, humans are attacking the worm nest in the Marinaya Islands, and we can't stop it!"

On the Mariana Islands, the Bug Kings built terrestrial hives.

Five helicarriers plus a slew of drones and flying mechs swept away rapidly, plasma rays, plasma cannons, arc weapons, and electromagnetic cannons.

The worm nest was completely destroyed in less than ten minutes, and one of the elementary worm kings inside was vaporized into gas by the air carrier with plasma rays before it could escape!

"My king, they seem to be building a base on the island!" Black Whale reported again.

"What? These natives, how dare they?" The Mana Insect King felt humiliated by humans, and the Mariana Islands were not far from its worm nest.

Humans build a base there, isn't it the equivalent of hanging a sword over its head?

"My king, are we going to organize a counterattack?" Black Whale asked.

The Mana Insect King originally wanted to destroy the human air carrier in one breath, but he was a little worried, for fear that the human beings would set up an ambush like the Baikal Insect King before.

"Wait first, forgive them and they don't dare to build a base here!" said the Mana Insect King, "If they really dare to build a base here, they will declare war on me!"

"At that time, I went straight to exterminate these natives!"

"Yes!" The black whale continued to observe, the Zerg cruising around day and night, hovering in the sky.

And these Zerg who come to monitor are cleaned up as quickly as possible every time.

In the first few days, the mana bug king thought he was enough to deter these natives, but gradually it found out that it was wrong!

These natives don't care about its deterrence at all. They rely on the rapid construction of robots on the island. In just a few months, they have seen various weapon facilities!

And it's also building an air port for an air carrier and a repair shop for a giant mech!

The nuclear fusion power station is also being built at the same time. This is not fake at all, but human beings are determined to build a military base next to its worm nest and destroy it!

"This group of indigenous people!" In the Mariana Trench, the Mana Bug King finally realized the fear of human beings for the bug race. He couldn't rest at ease every day, for fear that some kind of advanced weapon would be launched on the Mariana Islands, and it would be combined with its The hive was wiped out.

After half a month, the mana bug king couldn't help it:

"Black whale, send troops to detect and see what they are doing?" it ordered.

"Yes!" Black Whale sent a large group of Zerg to the island to detect the situation.

The intelligence bugs approached the island, and a large number of them were wiped out by patrolling deep-sea mechas, warships, and drones in the sky. Only a few sneaked into the island and have not been cleaned up for the time being.

From their perspective, Mana and Black Whale saw that humans seemed to be building some kind of giant cannon. This giant cannon was connected to a large nuclear fusion reactor, and the muzzle was aimed in the direction of the Mariana Trench.

"What kind of weapon is that?" Insect King Mana was secretly shocked, looking at the gun body, it was about a thousand meters long!

With such a huge cannon, can the natives still be able to hit the 10,000-meter-deep sea with one cannon and destroy its worm nest?

"My king, the natives really want to attack us!" Black Whale said, "This cannon is definitely not easy!"

"The technology of this group of indigenous people has already surpassed the first-level civilization! Maybe someone behind them is helping them. If they really create some advanced weapons, we will be in danger!"

The Mana Bug King also had the same idea in his heart, if it was the former natives, it didn't care at all.

But this Blue Star Alliance is very strange. It can create some special advanced weapons every time. If they are really built, they will definitely be in danger.

It is analyzing the pros and cons. "It is very unfavorable for me to let them build military bases. With them here, not only will I not be able to attack the land, but I will be restricted and threatened everywhere!"

"If I attack the natives now, the Aura insect king, the Noah insect king and the biochemical army will also act... This is next to my insect nest, even if they come, I will have the home field advantage!"

It thought for a while and thought that the military base should still be unplugged.

"Black whale, organize the army and pull this military base off!" The Mana Insect King ordered.

"Yes, my king!" The black whale immediately summoned the Zerg. The power of King Mana has expanded to the entire Pacific Ocean and the Tianzhu Ocean, and there are dozens of insect nests under his command.

In these insect nests, there are insect kings guarding them, and together with countless Zerg army, it is enough to drown the Mariana Islands!

...

"The swarm has moved, and it seems that the Mana Insect King can't sit still anymore!" The commanders of the Blue Star Alliance Headquarters noticed the change.

"We have been preparing for so long just to induce it to appear!" Qin Peng said, "If it is really under 10,000 meters in the deep sea, we are definitely not its opponent!"

Humans also have giant deep-sea battleships now, but if they really dive into the deep sea for 10,000 meters, it is estimated that they will be blown up by the mana bug king soon!

So they are deliberately building bases and cannons in the Mariana Islands to seduce the Mana Bug King to appear!

"If you don't fight, you will kill in one fight!" He Xingzhou said, "Our war with Mana Bug King will be the beginning of the Blue Star World War!"

"Other planetary beasts will also stare at us. Once we fall below, they will definitely attack us without hesitation!"

"So we have to be prepared to deal with multiple planetary behemoths at the same time!"

"Commander He, we command the air carrier, the aircraft carrier fleet, the missile unit, and the mecha unit to fight. The giant mecha will fight against the mechanical behemoth, and it's up to you!" Qin Peng said.

"Okay!" He Xingzhou is bound to, as a designer, he knows the advantages and usage of these weapons better than anyone else.

"The World War is about to start tomorrow!" Lu Mei took a deep breath and said, "After nearly ten years of preparation, the biggest test is finally here!"

...

The next day in the daytime, there was information on the news that today the Blue Star Alliance will hold a press conference, and there will be extremely important things happening.

"Blue Star Alliance collective press conference? This is the first time!" The people immediately realized that things were not easy.

"Before, it was only a meeting of one or two commanders, but this time something big is going to happen!"

"Could it be that the final battle is about to begin?"

"It must be like this. Recently, I have been watching the air carrier, fighter jets and flying mechs flying over to the sea!"

All over China, as well as safe zones around the world, news channels are turned on, waiting for the press conference to begin.

At ten o'clock in the morning Beijing time, the press conference started on time.

The seven first-level commanders did not attend the scene. After the preparation for the world war, in order to ensure the normal operation of the Blue Star Alliance, all the commanders were in different areas.

This is to prevent the Zerg sneak attack, and all commanders are killed at the same time.

"The people all over the world are also all human beings. I am Qin Peng, commander of the Blue Star Alliance." Qin Peng's projection first appeared at the press conference.

"I am the commander of the Blue Star Alliance, He Xingzhou." He Xingzhou followed.

"He Hongwei."

"Kong Qing."

"Song Jinghong."

"Cui Weimin."

"Lu Mei."

Qin Peng continued: "It has been nearly ten years since the establishment of the Xuanwu Project."

"In the past ten years, the zerg have invaded the Blue Star, from the ocean to the land and the sky! They devoured our kind, invaded our living space, and brought huge disasters to all mankind."

"More than five billion people were killed in this disaster!"

The entire audience fell silent. Ten years ago, no one could have imagined that Blue Star would become like this!

Almost everyone, someone familiar died, at the hands of the Zerg.

"The Zerg are the enemies of all mankind!" He Xingzhou continued, "In order to avenge the deceased relatives and friends, to protect our homeland!"

"We declared war on the Zerg, paid a heavy price, and achieved great results."

"Now, there are still Zerg robbery in the world! It is eyeing us, treating us as a meal on a plate, and meat on the table! We must not tolerate it!"

He Hongwei continued: "Not long ago, the mana bug in the Mariana Trench destroyed one of our nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets, killing hundreds of our crew members. It also violated us repeatedly!"

"We built a military base on the Mariana Islands in order to counter the Mana bug king," Kong Qing said.

"Now, we have threatened the mana bug king. It also realizes this." Song Jinghong said solemnly, "The mana bug king is gathering all his forces to destroy our military base."

"We are also mobilizing our troops to fight it!" Cui Weimin said.

"This will be the beginning of a world war between humans and Zerg!" Lu Mei said something that terrified humans around the world.

"Yes!" Qin Peng said, "For the sake of peace and tranquility, this war is imperative! Now, we announce that all members of the Blue Star Alliance, in their jurisdiction, will immediately enter the preparation stage for the World War!"

"All troops stand by!"

"All members will be under military command, take refuge or work collaboratively!"

"This war will decide whether human beings will survive or be destroyed!" He Xingzhou said loudly, "No one can retreat, behind us is a cliff!"

"Only by moving forward can a new world be created! End this era of cataclysm! The war has begun!"

When they finished the announcement, air raid sirens sounded synchronously in all cities and safe areas across the country and the world. The army appeared in every city, the helicarriers flew out from the base one by one, and countless fighter jets and flying mechs were rushing to the battlefield.

On the ground, armored vehicles, combat vehicles, and mecha units began to garrison, and the entire human society moved.

People realize that the final battle to decide whether human civilization can survive on this planet has come!
