"Uncle Qiao, how did you all come here?"
"In the office of Jiu Ding Group headquarters, Su Heng looked at the six or seven elderly people in front of him and felt somewhat surprised."
Subconsciously, I glanced at the secretary Lin Ya next to me.
But before Lin Ya could speak, Qiao Zhenhai's voice rang out directly:
"Little Su, don't blame Xiao Ya. It's us who asked her not to disturb you..."
Just as he finished speaking, another voice also followed up:
"Yes, Little Su. Compared to us, what you're dealing with is more important. After all, you're carrying the task of reviving the entire Long Village..."
Turning to look in the direction of the voice, I was shocked to see an elderly man standing next to Qiao Zhenhai, Qian Zhizhong!
Upon hearing this, Su Heng shook his head slightly, "Old Qian, it's not what you said. The revival of Long Village is not just a matter for me. There are thousands of Long Village scientists and millions of Long Village warriors, all of whom are the heroes of the revival of Long Village. I'm just a bit luckier than others."
"Without you and the millions of Long Village soldiers, not to mention the countless scientists who hide their identities, I couldn't carry on with my research so peacefully here..."
"You..." Facing Su Heng's response, Qian Zhizhong and others sighed slightly.
However, they did not continue to say more.
As Su Heng said, the revival of Long Village is not just Su Heng's task alone.
Just as Su Heng said, each and every one of the millions of soldiers on the front line and those scientists who hide their identities bear the mission of protecting the entire Long Village!
They have sacrificed countless sweat for the peace and stability of the village.
Even their lives!
Their spirits will never perish!
No one can erase their achievements.
However, relatively speaking, Su Heng's contribution is even greater now.
This is an indisputable fact. Such achievements can leave a lasting impression in any place!
However, it was quite evident that Su Heng still had no intention of claiming the glory. This brought great relief to Qian Zhizhong, Qiao Zhenhai, and others, but also a sense of deep regret.
After all, Su Heng has given so much to Long Village.
Too much to the point that they don't even know what they can do to recognize Su Heng's contributions and repay him...
Qian, money, power, and fame are not lacking for Su Heng. If Su Heng wants, simply by allowing one of his companies to go public, he could become richer than any country!
Power, and Su Heng isn't interested in that either.
Fame, and Su Heng isn't interested either. That's why he's been hiding his identity for so long. Before in Qingzhou Port, if Su Heng had agreed, they could have announced his existence to the world, making the entire Long Village, even the whole world, aware of his contributions!
By then, Su Heng's name would surely resound across the Blue Star!
However, Su Heng refused without hesitation...
As for the benefit, it's even more unnecessary to mention.
Thinking of these things, both Qian Zhizhong and Qiao Zhenhai and others were somewhat headache-stricken...
"Uncle Qiao, you and the others coming over now, is it because the matters of Black Eagle and Camel have been resolved?"
Just as Qiao Zhenhai and others were feeling headache, Su Heng also thought of something and directly asked.
"Um." In response to the question, Qiao Zhenhai and the others came to their senses and nodded slightly, succinctly explaining the matters of Camel and Black and White Eagles.
At the end, looking at Su Heng, Qiao Zhenhai suddenly said: "Little Su, what do you think of our approach?"
Upon hearing this, Su Heng was startled. He didn't expect Qiao Zhenhai to suddenly ask such a question.
But it only took a moment for him to recover his composure: "Uncle Qiao, I'm not a politician or a military strategist; I'm just an ordinary person who conducts research. I'm not knowledgeable about these matters..."
"..." After listening to what Su Heng said, Qiao Zhenhai and others looked at each other, and everyone saw a touch of helplessness in each other's eyes.
Su Heng doesn't understand?
These words might be believed if spoken by others, but when Su Heng said them, they couldn't believe it for a thousand reasons.
They have been interacting with Su Heng for not a day or two. They are very clear about Su Heng's abilities.
They have spent half their lives in the army, encountering so many strange and mysterious people.
They can tell at a glance who is truly a pig and who is feigning to be one.
However, although they know this, Qiao Zhenhai and others did not say much.
Su Heng doesn't want to talk about it, so they won't. They don't have to force Su Heng to talk about it...
Shaking his head, Qiao Zhenhai shook off the thoughts in his mind and, after thinking for a moment, said again:
"Little Su, do you really have confidence that they will not be able to make any progress with those technologies?"
Upon hearing this, Su Heng shook his head slightly and then said:
"I can't say I have absolute confidence, Uncle Qiao. You know as well as I do that science itself is often full of uncertainty."
"Just like gunpowder, the original gunpowder was born from the alchemy of our ancestors. Gunpowder was just an accidental product brought about by alchemy, and there are many such incidents in science. For example, nitroglycerin, pacemakers, penicillin, batteries... and even things like Viagra and sanitary pads were all accidental products..."
"The original purpose of these inventions was not what it is now. To promise absolute certainty, I cannot do it, and no serious scientist can guarantee it either."
"However, setting aside the possible accidents, if it's a serious research effort, even with detailed technical information, it won't be a matter of days or even weeks to fully understand it."
"More importantly, let's not talk about whether they have the technical foundation. Even if they do, it will take a long time to fully understand all the existing problems within Black Eagle Village's internal affairs..."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhenhai and others looked at each other and then nodded slightly.
Indeed, as Su Heng said, there is no such thing as absolute in science.
This field is full of uncertainty.
Maybe one day, because of an accident, a completely new and even groundbreaking discovery will suddenly emerge!
For example, the universal gravitation discovered by Newton!
That was because an apple hit his head and led to the discovery!
If that apple hadn't hit Newton's head, perhaps the phenomenon of universal gravitation might not have been discovered, or at least it might not have been discovered by Newton.
However, accidents are always accidents.
If we set aside these accidents, science is the most rigorous thing.
Without a solid foundation, understanding its connotations often feels like deciphering an ancient script!
Just like when Long Village researched the Western engine before.
Long Village has studied Western engines for so many years, but until Su Heng's time, Long Village still couldn't produce an advanced domestically produced engine!
Even ignoring other aspects, just the material alone would have barred countless scientists in Long Village from entering!
So, truly mastering these technologies is not something that can be accomplished just by a mere mouth movement.
Moreover, as Su Heng said, the internal affairs of Black Eagle Village are a mess.
Although the confrontation between Black Eagle Village and Camel has ceased, and they even received "compensation" of 2.8 trillion Long Village dollars from Camel, as well as several advanced technologies.
It seems that Black Eagle Village has not lost out, and even gained a little profit.
However, the price of obtaining these things is the complete loss of control over the desert on that side!
Now Black Eagle Village is already in a mess. It can be predicted that losing the control over oil in the desert on that side, along with offending so many villages now, will further destabilize Black Eagle Village, which has lost its dominant position!
If there weren't a "god-level man" descending from the heavens in Black Eagle Village, it might be that Long Village wouldn't have to do anything, and Black Eagle Village could have become a chapter of the history of the Blue Star on its own.
Even if Black Eagle Village manages to stabilize the current situation, don't forget that Black Eagle Village now has a Prestonia who wants to progress!
Thinking of Preston, Qiao Zhenhai and others' eyes flickered slightly...
After a long while, Qiao Zhenhai regained his composure.
This time, Qiao Zhenhai didn't continue talking about Black Eagle Village.
Instead, he directly shifted the topic to the South Gate.
"Little Su, you mentioned earlier that all the technical issues of the South Gate have been resolved. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Zhizhong and others also came to their senses, and without a word, their gaze shifted towards Su Heng, filled with a mix of nervousness and expectation.
Under the gazes of the crowd, Su Heng nodded slightly and said:
"Yes, all the technical issues of the South Gate have been resolved. This is the final design of the South Gate..."
While speaking, Su Heng made a gesture with his hand.
The next moment, the complete model of the South Gate appeared directly in front of Qiao Zhenhai and the others.
Looking at the model before them, Qiao Zhenhai and the others fixed their eyes intently.
South Gate!
As long as their plan goes smoothly in the future, once they complete the South Gate project and create Dragon Village's South Gate fleet.
Then in the future, Dragon Village will be unbeatable across the entire Blue Star!
From now on, whether the Blue Star is chaotic or not, it's up to Dragon Brother!
Whoever dares to chatter about Dragon Village, I'm sorry - open the door! Free trade!!
"Hey?"
However, just a moment later, Qin Shan suddenly issued a surprised and uncertain voice from the side.
"Little Su, I feel that your model of the South Gate seems different from the previous one?"
Upon hearing this, the others were taken aback and then began to examine it carefully.
It didn't take long for Qiao Zhenhai and Qian Zhizhong to notice the changes as well.
"It seems that there are indeed some differences..."
Qiao Zhenhai and Qian Zhizhong had seen the first-generation South Gate model that Su Heng presented before.
Although the overall appearance looks similar.
However, compared to the South Gate we saw before, the current South Gate seems to be much smaller…
Facing the puzzled expressions of Qiao Zhenhai and others, Su Heng did not beat around the bush.
He directly said: "As Mr. Qin and others saw, this is not the first-generation South Gate as before. This is the second-generation South Gate that I have redesigned, codenamed NTM-2. Apart from NTM-2, there are also NTM-1B..."
"NTM-2 and NTM-1B?"
Upon hearing Su Heng's response, Qin Shan and others were all stunned.
"Yes" Su Heng nodded slightly, and then continued: "NTM-2 is the smaller version of the initial South Gate. It's the improved product after I combined our current situation and future needs."
"The initial South Gate is very luxurious in terms of its configuration, but after careful consideration over this period, I feel that some of the configurations are redundant. For example, the high-power laser pulse cannons and electromagnetic cannons."
"Now that we are on the Blue Star, we cannot find any opponents who need to use these weapons. On the contrary, we need weapons that can provide comprehensive ground attacks."
"After comprehensive consideration, the new NTM-2 has eliminated the original four high-power electromagnetic cannons and six high-power laser pulse cannons. In their place, there are three high-power particle diffusion cannons..."
"Particle diffusion cannon?" Upon hearing the name, Qiao Zhenhai and others were taken aback and instinctively asked, "What kind of weapon is that?"
Facing their questions, Su Heng didn't beat around the bush. He waved his hand, and directly had Chaos present the related models and information of the particle diffusion cannon in front of everyone, before saying:
"This is the particle diffusion cannon. I won't elaborate on its detailed principles. It's too complex, and I can't explain it in a few seconds."
"In simple terms, it is a high-energy weapon capable of conducting large-scale ground attacks..."
As Su Heng spoke, the virtual model before them suddenly changed.
Following that, in the gazes of the crowd, a city building complex rapidly appeared before everyone.
Then, from the front of the NTM-2 model suspended in mid-air, a dazzling whitish light shot out abruptly!
The dazzling whitish light instantly fell onto the virtual city building complex.
Following that, in the gazes of Qian Zhizhong and others, the city building complex that had just formed, was as if it had been subjected to a mushroom shower.
Where the light passed, countless buildings shattered instantly into dust.
In just a moment, nearly a third of the magnificent city disappeared!
Once the smoke dissipated, a huge gorge was clearly visible on the virtual city building complex.
The original buildings were completely gone, replaced by a ferocious ravine, as if a menacing scar etched into the earth!
Even the small mountain model behind the city, which was taller than the city's buildings by more than three or four times, disappeared in this moment!
"Whew..."
Watching the scene before them, both Qian Zhizhong and Qiao Zhenhai and others couldn't help but suck in a breath.
What is terrifying?
At this moment, even Qian Zhizhong and others couldn't help but shiver in fear!
They simply couldn't imagine what kind of scene it would be if such a thing were to fall upon Dragon Village.
"Little... Little Su, is this really the weapon you researched?"
Although it's not a mushroom, its power is not inferior to that of a mushroom.
And it seems that this is a weapon that can be used continuously!
What does it mean that a mushroom that can be used continuously?
Just thinking about it, Qian Zhizhong and others felt their throats dry...
"Of course," facing Qian Zhizhong and others' astonished voices, Su Heng nodded slightly.
Then, Su Heng continued: "The city in the video is a model that I copied according to the city we are standing on, the Linnan City. It's not only different in size, but even the trash bins on the NTM-2 are one-to-one copies. And under full power, the particle diffusion cannon on NTM-2 can destroy one third of a Linnan City with just one shot..."
"Gulp..."
Hearing this, Qian Zhizhong and others couldn't help but swallow their saliva again.
Just one shot can destroy one third of a Linnan City?
If it were any other city, they might not have a clear concept.
But the city of Linnan, due to Su Heng's presence, they have a clear idea of just how many people live there.
Even the number of incoming and outgoing personnel and vehicles every day, and the number of personnel and vehicles that leave the city, they have detailed data records!
This is a large city with a permanent population exceeding six million people!
While more than six million people are not all in the downtown area, the majority live in suburbs and satellite cities.
But the population in the downtown area has already exceeded two million!
In other words, if Su Heng's shot were to actually land, then tens of thousands of people would perish under this shot!
That's not a mushroom what is it?
Who dares to say this isn't a mushroom?
