The Trickster King

Chapter 502 Meteorite Crisis

Su Xiang checked the equipment and said in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense later, just listen to me."

Xiao Xun nodded. He hadn't figured out what was going on here.

Su Xiang pressed a button next to the microphone, and a small red dot in front of him turned green, indicating they were online.

After going online, he heard others speaking. Their voices were very clear, and languages from all countries could be heard.

Su Xiang pressed another button, and those miscellaneous languages were all unified into the local language.

Xiao Xun thought, this is more convenient than real-time translation. If it were released to the market and ported to mobile phones, it would definitely be a hit.

At this moment, the green eyes of the number one plaque began to flash, "Why are areas thirteen and twenty-four not online yet?"

The green eyes of the number three plaque flickered, "There's a problem in area three. I hope the Secretary-General can help resolve it."

The green eyes of the number one plaque flashed, "We'll discuss this separately. Give those two areas another ten minutes. The meeting will start on time."

At this moment, the green eyes of area thirteen lit up, "Apologies, Secretary-General, something happened, but it has been resolved."

However, area twenty-four did not light up until the meeting began.

At this moment, the green eyes of the number one plaque flashed, "We won't wait for twenty-four. The meeting officially begins. I thank all the regional representatives for attending this meeting despite your busy schedules.

The importance of this meeting is undeniable. According to satellite monitoring feedback, a meteor with a diameter of seventeen meters and a mass of seven thousand tons is currently flying towards the Blue Star at a speed of fifty-four Mach. According to astronomical observations, the predicted impact location is area six.

Does area six have any countermeasures?"

The green eyes of number six flashed, "Our proposed solution is to use a three-phase bomb for an extraterrestrial interception."

The green eyes of number four flashed, "Secretary-General, I object to the proposal from area six."

"Please state your reasons for objection."

"Because the mass of the meteor is too large, and its falling speed is too fast. Our missiles can at best reach twenty Mach. If we use a three-phase bomb for interception, if the power is insufficient, it will be ineffective. If the power is too great, it will cause considerable nuclear pollution. If operated improperly, the meteor might not be shattered, and all extraterrestrial satellites could be rendered useless."

The green eyes of number one flashed, "Objection successful. The response from area six is rejected."

Xiao Xun said to Su Xiang, "We could use particle laser cannons in this situation!"

Su Xiang quickly covered Xiao Xun's mouth and motioned for him to be quiet.

At this moment, the green eyes of number one flashed, "Does area eight have sci-fi weapons like particle laser cannons?"

Su Xiang said into the microphone, "Secretary-General, we are merely providing a concept. We do not have them, but perhaps other areas do."

The green eyes of number six flashed, "Then please ask area eight to be quiet. This is not a place for you to offer hypotheses."

The green eyes of number one flashed, "If this meteor successfully lands, not only will area six be wiped out, but the entire Blue Star will be severely affected. Therefore, if anyone has any good ideas, please propose them actively."

The green eyes of number six flashed, "If there are no particularly good solutions, we will mark the meteorite impact site, evacuate all living beings within a five-hundred-kilometer radius, and build high walls in the shortest possible time to resist the damage caused by the shockwave."

The green eyes of number three flashed, "Please note, number six, this is a meteor. If it truly impacts Earth, the resulting shockwave will be equivalent to two hundred three-phase bombs. Even if you can build high walls in the shortest possible time, I ask, what kind of wall can resist such a powerful shockwave?"

The green eyes of number four flashed, "I'll add one point: if the meteor impact is successful, it will be a catastrophe for all humanity. The impact it generates, if the meteor's density is great enough, could potentially penetrate the Blue Star. Even if the density is small, it could trigger earthquakes and tsunamis worldwide, and potentially cause dormant volcanoes in various regions to erupt. This might even cause area ten to disappear from the world map."

Xiao Xun couldn't hold back any longer, "Although we don't have particle laser cannons, we have the design blueprints."

Su Xiang was stunned, frowned, and looked at Xiao Xun, meaning, where did you get this? Didn't I tell you not to speak?

The green eyes of number four flashed, "As everyone knows, area eight's technological strength is not ranked high among all areas. Since you have the blueprints, why haven't you built it?"

Xiao Xun snatched the microphone, "What number four said is correct. Our area's technological strength is not strong, so we only have the theory but cannot build it. Since you just said this is a matter for all humanity, I hope all areas can unite and accomplish this together."

Seeing Xiao Xun acting like this, Su Xiang decided to let go, crossed his legs, and moved to the side, shaking his head as he watched Xiao Xun.

The green eyes of number one flashed, "We don't know. How does area eight need everyone's cooperation?"

Xiao Xun said confidently, "Since the area where the meteor will land is number six, then number six needs to provide personnel and also a man-made satellite."

The green eyes of number six flashed, "No problem, we have plenty of satellites. What kind of personnel do you want?"

"Isn't that a silly question? Since I'm asking for a man-made satellite, I naturally need aerospace technology talent."

The green eyes of number six flashed, "No problem, I will apply to the Head of State."

Xiao Xun thought about the materials needed for the particle laser cannon and continued, "The remaining countries should transport the materials I need to our area uniformly, then we will process them and transport them to area six for launch and installation. Those who do not provide materials should contribute some money!"

The green eyes of number one flashed, "Does anyone have any objections?"

The green eyes of number four flashed, "I disagree with area eight producing them. Their defective products are too numerous. What if there are flaws? It should be sent to our area. Everything produced by our factories is precision work."

Xiao Xun knew what the other party meant, "Your work efficiency is too slow, and your personnel are too few. It's a race against time now. I'm afraid you won't even produce half of the required items before the meteor falls."

The green eyes of number six flashed, "I agree with area eight's opinion, and I also disagree with having these important items produced in area four."

The green eyes of number one flashed, "If no one else has any objections, let's proceed according to area eight's opinion. Today's meeting concludes."

All the green eyes turned red within a minute. Su Xiang stood up and pressed the switch.

His face was full of anger, "Who told you to act on your own? Do you know how serious your words were?"

"A meteor striking the Blue Star is an apocalyptic disaster. As a part of humanity, is it not acceptable for me to offer a suggestion?"

Su Xiang shook his head, "You can suggest ideas to me, but jokes need to be made at the right time and place. Particle laser cannons, such sci-fi things, can you actually build them?"

"Whether we can build it depends on Brother Xiang."

Su Xiang frowned as he saw Xiao Xun's casual demeanor, "What do you mean?"

"As long as you can get our country's arsenals to produce the needed parts, then it will be absolutely fine."

Su Xiang took a deep breath, "Judging by your tone, do you really have the blueprints?"

Xiao Xun nodded emphatically, "Do you think I would joke about such a matter?"

Su Xiang turned and walked out. Xiao Xun immediately followed him.
