Chapter 614 Secrets
"It's not convenient for me to say the specific reason."
Leader Qiao obviously knew something, but he still gave it away and said: "Speaker Wan will explain the specific matter to you in detail. Now prepare yourself and come with me to see Chairman Wan."
"President Wan?" Bai Pu looked at Li Ling doubtfully.
Li Ling's breathing almost stopped and she whispered: "That's the Chairman Wan you are thinking of, the one who often appears in Central News."
…
In Yunzhongque, in an exquisite bamboo house, Bai Pu met the legendary Chairman Wan.
Chairman Wan is similar to what he saw on TV. He is plainly dressed and has an ordinary appearance, but he has a majestic demeanor, which is the aura infiltrated from having been in the center of power for a long time and responding to everything at once.
Next to Chairman Wan, there was a peer Bai Pu knew.
Skywalker, thousands of shocks.
Both of them have the surname Wan.
Bai Pu quickly guessed the relationship between the two. Wan Zhen should be the nephew of Chairman Wan, the kind who is more valued.
"Gelheart, hello."
Chairman Wan smiled and said, "According to Old Qiao, you are very curious as to why you were promoted to the central standing position of the tenth sequence."
Bai Pu nodded and admitted.
According to the normal promotion procedure, Bai Pu was first promoted to the central councilor, then qualified as an "alternate standing councilor", and then waited for time and opportunity to obtain the seat of the standing councilor.
This process may take several years, or it may take more than ten years.
Many central council members have spent their entire lives failing to complete this path.
Moreover, even if you get a seat as a standing member by substitution, you can only sit at the bottom of the list, below the senior standing members.
Bai Pu has now been directly promoted to the tenth rank, which is equivalent to the original tenth rank standing member, and even the next two to three hundred standing members have all moved back one position!
This is more difficult than the process of being promoted from a regional executive to a central executive, and requires much more energy!
I am afraid that such a situation will only happen if the top nine speakers vote together.
It is actually very dangerous to "put" Bai Pu in this position. If Bai Pude is not coordinated, there will inevitably be a backlash.
Although Bai Pu can fight, such a high-ranking boss cannot convince the crowd just by fighting alone.
In order for the boss to manage the work he is in charge of well, domestic influence, the huge power behind it, deep personal connections, influence in the spiritual world... all aspects are indispensable.
The boss's personal combat effectiveness is important, but it is not everything.
Bai Pu felt that the Nine Speakers must have a very legitimate and urgent reason to do this and place a boy under 19 years old in a high position in the tenth series.
Chairman Wan sighed, looking a little tired. He said slowly:
"Steel Heart, do you know the nature of war in the spiritual world?"
Bai Pu thought for a while and answered: "Wars will break out between the will of the spiritual world and the will of the spiritual world in order to compete for resources. There may also be conflicts of interest between gods and gods, or between gods and the will of the spiritual world."
"That's right. It seems that I worried too much. You have already come into contact with a deeper secret."
Chairman Wan smiled and said, "Then I'll make the story short. In this spiritual war, our home, the Earth, has reached a critical juncture of life and death and is about to face the invasion of aliens from other worlds!"
"Walkers from another world? How many are there?" Bai Pu suddenly felt itchy. With his strength now standing at the pinnacle of the Awakened, he is worthy of facing most of the outsiders.
Chairman Wan showed a bitter smile: "A whole planet."
Looking at Bai Pu's astonished eyes, President Wan continued: "The Sea Clan of Stellan Planet is trying to locate the earth in space. Once the positioning is successful, they will sacrifice resources, open the space portal, and move Stellan Planet to Earth. Launch into Earth orbit and launch an invasion!"
Bai Pu was startled again when he heard Stellan Star. He instantly thought of the octopus-headed Meshat.
"The Sea Clan is a branch of the Monster Clan. Is this invasion a confrontation between the Wuya will of the Monster Clan and the Gaia will of us humans?" Bai Pu asked.
"That's not true. As far as I know, Stellan has long become a god's kingdom on earth. This war was actually initiated unilaterally by that god."
"Why is this? Is there anything on earth worthy of the gods' covetousness?" Bai Pu found it difficult to understand.
The universe is vast, and there are countless billions of living planets. Planets of first-order awakened people like Earth, which have just started for hundreds of years, are as numerous as sand at the bottom of a river.
Will the gods set their sights on the earth?
Bai Pu thought for a while, "Is the source reliable?"
Chairman Wan said: "According to information provided by the National Strategic Security Think Tank, in recent times, the prices of Origin Earth and Origin Water in the international Awakened Market have increased by 72%, and the prices of Eternal Gold have increased by 94%. The prices of gold, mithril and other materials have doubled.
"This kind of increase is very unusual. There is more than one institution that is buying these high-end materials in large quantities!
"The central meeting gathered a large number of top awakened people. After discussions, it was discovered that these high-end materials that have increased in price are basically used to make 'psionic battleships'!"
Bai Pu shook his head. He didn't know anything about the psychic battleship.
"It's normal. You are a major now, and the composite blueprint of the psychic battleship requires at least the rank of commodore to be eligible to obtain it!"
Chairman Wan said in a deep voice, "Generally speaking, the Bronze Commodore's psychic battleship cannot be brought into the spirit world, and its functions are also very rudimentary. There is only one special function - the secondary space door.
"The Bronze Commodore-class battleship can open the secondary space gate and make a space jump! Generally speaking, only masters who have passed the test of ascension and are about to be promoted to evolvers can find a way to build one and bring some of their own Friends and family, ascend to a higher level of the world.
"But the cost-effectiveness of this is really low, and it is very dangerous and reckless to take relatives and friends to a higher-level world. I rarely see flying masters do this."
Bai Pu nodded and said: "So, generally speaking, building a psychic battleship is very cost-effective and no one knows how to do it. The price of these materials has skyrocketed recently, indicating that many people are secretly building psychic battleships?"
Chairman Wan nodded and said: "According to a thorough investigation, the forces that ate these materials are basically from the United States and Canada.
“In the United States and Canada, we have people who have been lurking, let’s call them ‘moles’ – this is very unusual, so we activated three high-level moles to gather information from different channels.
"The information I have received is what I just told you. There is already a planet named 'Yazd', which is being invaded by the Stilan Sea Tribe! And Yazd is only four thousand light years away from us. !”
