Chapter 1186: Myth revival?
"Damn it! Damn it!"
In the Middle East, a man with a white cloth on his head roared loudly, and his hands couldn't stop shaking, but he didn't know whether this was caused by anger or fear.
He is the Saudi royal family, and oil is the most advantageous weapon for this royal family.
—before the aliens arrived.
Things that don't have to be directly erased from a person's body can be called weapons, words, resources, money. In this era, many things can become weapons.
It's like the weapon they have in their hands, a powerful weapon that can make even the world's most powerful country have to bow its head - oil.
If they blow up all the oil fields, the planet will be buried with them.
Petroleum is energy, but it is not just energy. The chemical industry derived from petroleum has penetrated into every aspect of this planet.
But now, times have changed.
The appearance of aliens has brought the world back into a frantic military alert. The shadow that once shrouded the world could drag it into a nuclear apocalypse at any time, and the shadow called the Cold War has shrouded the world again.
In the Cold War era, these oil emperors could still rely on the resources at hand to build their own empires. They were forced to stand on the cusp of the wind. However, in this new era, keen people have noticed that they once relied on resources. The group of people who took off would eventually fall heavily from the sky and die after the wind stopped.
Now, the wind has begun to die down.
When aliens carried out unscrupulous terrorist attacks on the earth, the Eastern powers finally began to show their strength, launching various heaven-defying equipment one after another.
The controllable nuclear fusion reactor alone has dealt a dimensionality reduction blow to the energy industry of the old era, not to mention the subsequent introduction of miniaturized nuclear fusion reactors, cold fusion reactors, and the civilian use of the above devices.
In terms of weapons, the group of Easterners launched energy weapons. A shaped energy laser weapon that can destroy a tank with one shot and is only the size of a pistol; a shaped energy laser weapon that only needs water to activate and uses water as an energy source to destroy a building with one shot; a shaped energy rifle that is strong enough to withstand the above-mentioned weapons The energy protection device is about the same size as a jade pendant, and is even called a cultivation tool by Easterners.
——Isn’t this something from a Western science fiction movie? Why did you really do it? Just make science fiction movies. How can you even make things out of myths and legends? !
If this is the case, it will at best make the oil industry burst into gold and lose its vitality. The remnants of the old era can still rely on the embers to keep warm. The wealth they have accumulated is enough to make their children and grandchildren rich, and the oil in their hands is by no means empty. worthless. Because oil is not only an energy source, but also a chemical raw material. Among other things, petroleum is the raw material for plastics used daily in all walks of life. The big Eastern countries can't just make something out of nothing, right? !
But the problem is that this is an era when aliens carry out terrorist attacks, and this is an era when humans face new threats. If humans can survive the alien attacks, then the era of interstellar navigation will follow. The interstellar voyage that was once shelved due to the end of the Cold War will start again, of course, provided that humans can survive this hurdle.
The most important thing now is not money, but stability, safety, and fists!
The Eastern power showed its great strength. It only sent a hundred armed helicopters to destroy the aliens' flying saucers in full view of the public, and also captured a group of aliens. At this time, the sleeping Eastern Lion was just like what the Emperor said. He woke up and shocked the world.
The West is not to be outdone. Although this group of rising stars who have developed technologies such as mechanical transformation of humans have fallen quickly after the collapse of their old rivals, they are still more like a dead camel than a horse. The legacy left by the Cold War is not as good as it was fifteen years later. He was generally driven crazy, but with the help of the east wind named [Alien], the national power that was gradually heading towards the crash took off again. This country is still the strongest on the surface.
The two countries in the east and west showed their military power and proved to the world how powerful their fists are.
So the question is, how big are their fists, which are based on oil?
Taking sides has become the most urgent thing now, and now they need to pray to God to bless them to be selected by the two great powers of the East and the West and give them tickets to Noah's Ark.
For this, they are willing to pay any price.
There are not a few people who have this idea. On the contrary, all smart people have realized the changes of the times. Public intellectuals have shut up, and politicians have stopped talking about freedom and democracy. Whose fist is this era? It’s an era where everyone is right.
When my neighbors stock up on food, I stock up on guns, and my neighbors are my granaries.
The man with the white cloth on his head was restless in his palace. He waited for his ministers. When the ministers arrived, he immediately asked them for various information, and then received even worse news.
Alien attacks are increasing and the mighty Empire refuses to come to their aid. There can be no worse news as they hit rock bottom.
The stability of the country is as fragile as paper in front of that group of elusive aliens who cannot communicate with each other. No one wants to live in a society where terrorist attacks may occur at any time, and where they may be targeted at any time. The most important thing is— -Terrorists are all madmen!
The pursuit of stability is the instinct of intellectual life, and the appearance of aliens destroys this stability.
Terrorists like Ben Laden at least have a goal. They can just sit back and watch the Western powers get anxious. But this group of aliens is different. Their attack targets are too abstract. It is completely understandable to assassinate senior officials of various countries, but what does it mean that you penetrated the White House defense and finally shot a dog that a congressman brought to his workplace to kill time? What do you mean by wasting so much effort just to kill a whale?
The most popular conspiracy theory now is that this group of aliens, like the Predator in the [Predator] series, came to Earth to hunt. Some people say that they are collecting genes from Earth species and will completely destroy the Earth when the genes are collected.
But no matter which one it is, it is fatal to the stability of the Earth.
The man with a white cloth on his head let his ministers leave in exhaustion. The death threat of assassination by aliens, the unclear attitude of a powerful country, and the imminent collapse of the country made his spirit on the verge of collapse. He could only pray to Allah and place his hope on a non-existent god.
The man prayed to Allah, and this time, Allah answered him.
God, resurrected!
