MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 652 The Lies of the World
To maintain order in the new world, only a strong army and weapons are needed, but to maintain the glory of the empire, the last people of the empire cannot be made sinners. In order to dispel their undeserved guilt, the head of state sent a message to the lunar underground base in the near-moon space station, announcing that "earth people" will become history.
The lucky people who claim to be moon people are working hard to adapt to the new environment, while using the spaceships to transport the machines and materials to the base to improve the first phase of the moon base project. As the first batch of immigrants to land on the moon, they are responsible for the pioneering mission. , We must build the lunar base into a livable place with a better environment as soon as possible, not only to bring more valuable earthlings to the lunar base, but also to allow the head of state to leave his space palace as soon as possible.
Since entering the space palace, the head of state has become more and more irritable and irritable, because the living environment of the recent moon space station is really unsatisfactory, and the long-term absence of gravity will have serious adverse effects on the human body, but the empire has not yet mastered artificial gravity technology. , so the overall circular near-lunar space station can only generate centrifugal force on the circumference of the wheel through the continuous rotation of the huge wheel-shaped structure, and act as "artificial gravity" with this gravity-like inertial force.
In this way, the head of state living in the space station can also be "down-to-earth", but the artificial gravity generated in this short radius will stimulate the human's orientation sensory organs, accompanied by the Coriolis force that constantly appears when the space station rotates And the acceleration will stimulate the inner ear of people, ranging from tinnitus and dizziness, to nausea, nausea, headache, and insomnia in the worst case. Well-trained guards can still bear it, but the head of state can't bear this kind of torture.
Therefore, the head of state ordered that the second phase of the moon base renovation project be completed as soon as possible at all costs. Although the first moon people who landed on the moon were the elite of the elite, the work was still challenging. The change of gravity and air composition made most crops And poultry cannot survive on the moon normally, and the shortage of resources and manpower also makes it difficult for the genius ideas of the moon people to be put into practical use quickly.
Scientists, engineers, designers and other experts from all walks of life work tirelessly like worker ants. Their busyness makes them selectively forget the identity of "human traitors". However, they can only deceive themselves, but cannot cover up the truth forever.
At the end of December 2007, Allied astronomer O'Harry Gates deduced through astronomical observations and software calculations that a huge asteroid would hit the earth in nineteen months. As a result, dozens of astrophysicists and mathematicians from the Allied countries convened a team for the first time and began to check the result.
Then, O'Harry Gates contacted the crazy moon landing plan of the Great German Empire in recent years, and collected information aggressively. When he saw the empire's giant spaceship landing on the moon, he seemed to see an iceberg hidden in the deep sea When it came to the surface, he finally understood why the Führer of the German Reich would "be out of his mind" and make the plan to land on the moon, which would seriously damage the country's economy, as the primary goal, and watch his empire fall apart without wavering.
O'Harry Gates thought he was going to be the hero who exposed this shocking lie, but in the end he became a "drunk driving harming others and himself" fool. On the first day of 2008, O'Harry Gates died in a serial car accident. After the investigation, it was found that O'Harry Gates' blood alcohol concentration exceeded the limit, which not only killed himself, but also killed a family of three.
Shortly after the accident, the scientists who had already verified the results of O'Harry Gates' calculation changed their words, saying that after re-measurement and calculation, they found that the probability of an asteroid entering a dangerous orbit is only one in a million, so everyone does not have to worry about this "drunk". sloppy and overly concerned.
Such an explanation can only be bought by the people who are easily fooled, but it cannot deceive the suspicious conspirators and the big men with thought and resources. Died in an accident, which is too easy to suspect, so many of them did not suffer life-threatening, but were ruined by various scandals.
As for the big figures of the Allied countries who have a lot of resources, they have the right to choose: either they are strangled by the two giants of the empire and the allied countries, or they can take one or several tickets and wait patiently for the departure date of the second batch of ships.
Without exception, everyone who has the right to choose has chosen the ticket.
Of course, the wise head of state clearly understands that this is not enough. There are too many "coincidences" between the moon landing plan and the asteroid impact prediction. If the people are left with a peaceful leisure time, they will definitely find the connection, even if even Even if they see through the lies, they will not be able to cause harm to the new empire in space and on the moon, but the construction of the new empire will ultimately require resources and assistance from the earth.
In order to better squeeze the ignorant people in the last nineteen months, the Empire needs to find an effective way to divert their attention, so that they can keep their eyes on the surface, on themselves, not on the moon above their heads, The head of state once again gave a brutal order.
After receiving the order, the secret army of the German Empire changed its clothes and went out, disguised as a resistance army to bring massacres on the border of the empire, aroused the hatred of the people and gave reasons for launching an all-out war, while the "moon landing hoax" that the resistance army shouted was become their demagogic means.
In the seemingly anxious fire of war, the second, third, and fourth batches of lunar immigrants left the earth one after another, including not only the nobles and outstanding citizens of the empire, but also the big figures and their families in the Allied countries.
The head of state did not agree to the request of the leaders of the Allied countries to carry the guards, on the grounds that the cost of building an underground base on the moon is very high, and carrying the guards is just a waste of living space, and this waste of resources is unacceptable. The leaders of the Allied countries naturally knew that this was an excuse, but they had no choice. Even if they turned their faces and tore up the agreement, they did not have enough time and strength to build a moon landing spacecraft. Even if they could build it, they would never be able to land on the moon, because the empire's space The fleet will definitely destroy their spaceships - it is said that it is a space fleet, but it is actually just a few transport spaceships. What can really play a role is armed satellites and ground interception.
Either stay and wait to die, or come up and gamble. The leaders of the Allied countries can only choose to gamble. After all, the new empire can fully withstand their counterattack.
So the leaders of the Allied countries boarded the spacecraft and left their cronies on the earth, telling them that other spacecraft would come down to meet them. If they did not send back a message to prove their safety after landing on the moon, they would use all means. revenge on the empire.
They thought they could keep their hole cards safe, but they were wrong.
