Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Oleben looked at Tommy with joy in his eyes. Tommy walked over and came to the bottom of a frozen president step by step. He had seen this GHD president in some documentaries.

This is Mr. Brown, who was president when the apocalypse struck. He has been asleep for more than 200 years, Olleben said.

"This president led the people of our United States to complete a lot of construction underground, just in this base."

Tommy smiled emotionally.

"The catastrophe that year was really unbelievable. It was too difficult for human beings to survive such a catastrophe."

Tommy doesn't know much about the catastrophe more than 200 years ago, because some historical records on the market are not comprehensive, and many core secrets have been controlled by the state.

The real situation known to the public is only the tip of the iceberg. Most of the truth is hidden under the water. Tommy looked around. Tommy knew many presidents here, because if he wants to enter the world of power, these people must be familiar with of.

After all, these presidents represent the highest power in the country, and many people in the power circle have been passed down from generation to generation. Now it is the families of these presidents who control the center of power.

Tommy knew these things a long time ago. It is impossible for ordinary people to enter the center of power if they are not extremely lucky. Tommy is not like this, who accidentally took the opportunity to take the blame.

Power and economy have been tightly bound together for a long time, and those who become power and capital have already started hereditary system 200 years ago, so outsiders don't know about the invisible situation, but Tommy During a high-level gathering, I heard a few drunk people talking about the matter. They clearly stated which families some young people in the banquet came from, and all of these families had presidents.

Tommy felt shocked at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt disappointed. The two largest factions in the country, GHD and MZD, took turns in the position of president. The two factions seemed to be constantly fighting, but in fact they were just fighting each other Just kick the ball.

Tommy has carefully studied some of the things that the two factions have done over the years since they took office. They are kicking some problems at each other, and then the other side fights back. They have only one purpose in doing this, to act in front of the people.

As long as the people start to split and believe everything about the two factions, the energy of the people will be consumed in all kinds of things that are kicking and kicking each other, making it even more difficult for them to get closer to the truth.

Under the double deception of money and power, the people have become less and less motivated. Many people have even felt that they have been like this in this life, and even the children of the future are the same. Too many people have resigned to their fate. up.

Seeing Tommy's serious expression, Olleben laughed.

"President Tommy, you should have realized such a cruel thing a long time ago."

Tommy nodded, and he stared at these old men in the freezer. What Tommy didn't expect was that they wanted to continue to live, in order to be able to press the pause button on the life that was about to disappear when the technology developed in the future.

"I don't like them very much, I would really like to throw them all out if I could."

Oleben froze at first, but then burst out laughing.

"As expected of you, President Tommy."

Tommy laughed.

"Just kidding."

Oleben smiled and nodded, but seeing Tommy's puzzled face, he probably knew what Tommy was going to ask. Oleben snapped his fingers, and a robot brought some drinks and food after a while.

After the two sat down, Tommy looked at President Brown not far away. He looked at most 70, and he was very well cared for.

"Why did he know that there will be such technology in the future?"

"Humanity's exploration has indeed discovered a means to extend life on that asteroid, and this means has been proven to work on humans."

Tommy stood up in astonishment, and Oleben smiled and pulled Tommy and said.

"Don't be so surprised, President Tommy, you will know these things sooner or later. I invited you here today, just to talk to you about what you want to know. According to our speculation, your presidential re-election cycle It's very long."

Tommy looked at Oleben suspiciously, he said.

"The previous system that each president could only be re-elected at most once was abolished more than 100 years ago. Do you know why?"

Tommy thought for a moment and said.

"For the integrity of this country, for a certain period of time, to concentrate power."

Oleben was a little surprised, his face was serious, but he looked at Tommy with admiration.

"Sure enough, you are very smart, President Tommy. Now this country is on the verge of splitting up. If it weren't for you, a war might break out in the next year or two. Once the war starts, the northern alliance will overwhelm you in one fell swoop. That’s when everything gets chaotic.”

Oleben said, looked at Brown, and then said.

"This president, after re-election and retirement, began to come back here to plan for the future. Many presidents will come here in the end, and they will naturally want to continue to live."

Tommy laughed.

"What's the point of living with such a body? Everything they have done has brought the whole country to where it is now."

Oleben held up the wine glass, and the two took a sip. Tommy seemed a little uncomfortable in such a room. After all, these people, in Tommy's view, they only think about themselves, and never think about this country.

In the past, the United States of the World has been relying on wars to collect money all over the world, constantly relying on strong means to obtain benefits, and let the whole world pay for itself. However, after the catastrophe, although the United States of the World has survived, there is no external Any place for them to make money.

In the end, the contradictions were transferred to the inside, so the inside would always cause a lot of problems at the bottom, so that people at the bottom would collect money, accumulate wealth continuously, and continuously control power.

"It really doesn't make much sense. If you want, President Tommy, you can freeze yourself here in the future."

Tommy laughed, he realized right away.

"It's the same for some high-level officials in your military department."

Oleben nodded.

"My great-grandfather is still freezing below, and there are several of them, so is my grandpa, and so is my father."

Tommy felt sad for a while, because such a country has been completely controlled by these people, and they will control it forever. As long as they have children, they can pass it on from generation to generation.

"I know you don't like this idea very much, and you must be disgusted in your heart, but the world after the disaster is much more serious than the medicine you thought."

Although Tommy has seen some videos of the disaster, he doesn't know more specific things.

"What do you mean by Bright City?"

Tommy didn't quite understand, and then Olleben got up, turned on a crystal screen, and then brought up a map of the world.

"This is what the world looked like in the past, and the Brilliant City I'm talking about is here."

Oleben pointed, Tommy stood up, Oleben drew a line, and then the mileage appeared, and they were more than 2 kilometers away from Bright City.

"That is to say, does human beings still have a civilization called Brilliant City?"

Oleben nodded.

"This civilization, like us, is also closed in the world after the sun disappears. Their technology is already very advanced. We have only seen some image files sent from Asgard. It is basically certain that their technology No less than us."

"and many more."

Tommy recalled what Oleben had said at the beginning, and he asked in astonishment.

"You mean, does Bright City have the means to extend the lifespan of human beings?"

Oleben nodded, and then showed a happy smile.

"But now it is almost impossible for us to establish diplomatic relations with them. This involves the issue of Steka, you should have understood it."

Tommy hummed. He really didn't understand the research on Steka, because Collins had told Tommy before that the plan to use the existence of Steka to produce energy had been in place for a long time.

Oleben sighed, then took a sip with Tommy, and then he snapped his fingers, at this time the chairs and small table of the two moved slowly.

"Go to another room and chat slowly."

Tommy hummed, and after a while they moved to a room full of green plants, with a rockery and a small pool. Tommy got up and lay on the sofa comfortably, and ate a piece of jerky.

"Why did Steka exist so early?"

Tommy doesn't quite understand, after all, it existed before the disaster, and this kind of thing sounds like someone who traveled through time and space.

Oleben said with a smile.

"Do you know how people all over the world viewed Area 51 before?"

Tommy shook his head.

"This used to be one of the most mysterious places in the world, and the biggest rumor was that aliens were captured."

Tommy couldn't believe it.

"Really? There are aliens?"

Oleben smiled and shook his head.

"Aliens don't, but alien products do."

Tommy got up from the sofa immediately, half of the drunkenness had disappeared.

"seriously?"

Oleben nodded, then spoke.

Once in 2030, because the United States discovered a previously unknown signal in a certain sea area, this signal was different from any previous signal.

So Area 51 immediately dispatched an investigation. Following this special signal emitting energy, they salvaged a special object in a sea area. It looked like some kind of cabin with a Steka lying in it.

Tommy's eyes widened in astonishment, and Olleben laughed.

"Or a humanoid creature with a similar structure to Steka."

Subsequently, a large number of scientists gathered in Area 51, and they began to study this mysterious thing, but they didn't know anything, it was not life, but more like a product of the mechanized age.

This research has been going on for several decades, and until 2076, there was finally a breakthrough, and this placed research began to turn around, because they discovered that this thing began to glow, and it seemed to be responding to something.

However, one day this substance entered the body of a scientist, and his body began to undergo astonishing changes, and gradually became the appearance of Steka, and possessed very powerful power.

This kind of thing surprised every scientist present, and then they conducted various researches on this mutated scientist, and then confirmed one thing, this mutated new species can provide a very large amount of energy.

At that time, this incident attracted the attention of high-level officials in the United States. They began to allow scientists to go to the outside world to do some experiments. They did experiments on animals. Animals will not mutate, only humans will.

Afterwards, these scientists put the experiment on the neighboring country MX. They made many people successfully mutate and then arrested them, and then began to conduct drastic research.

But then disaster struck, the experiment was terminated, and the country began to perish.

Everyone has to fight for survival, and when the country began to stabilize, this plan was discovered by President Brown, so in the end President Brown decided to spread these substances on a large area, let these substances enter neighboring countries, let there Humans are all mutated.

Everyone present at the time was shocked by such a plan, but Brown said that our future is a world of energy starvation, and we can have a future only if new energy can be produced in advance.

In the end, everyone reached an agreement. The United States of the World dispatched the most advanced fighter planes to sprinkle all the alien substances on the MX where there were still people alive. After decades, when humans began to be able to walk on the ground, They saw these Stekas when they went to MX.

And this research project also began to restart, and then 150 years ago, humans began to contact Steka for the first time, and began to establish diplomatic relations and trade with them.

"You should know something about the latter."

Tommy drank a glass of wine with a heavy heart. He didn't expect that those were not alien creatures, but the products left behind by the United States.

"That's why we have a steady stream of energy now, President Tommy, and there are certain things that are beyond reproach."

Tommy laughed, drank the drink in the glass in one gulp, and then burst out laughing.

"There is nothing wrong with it? It is true that Brown has an outstanding vision, but this is based on treating those Stekas as human beings, and we will definitely pay a heavy price for doing so one day."

Oleben also nodded.

"Indeed, the backlash has begun. Recently, we discovered that our weapons against Steka have gradually begun to fail. I don't know why. Those weapons that were able to kill with one blow in the past are failing. This is very serious."

Tommy looked at Oleburn, then asked.

"What's going on, what weapon?" (End of this chapter)
