Chapter 4 World Summit (3)

When Li Zhen walked into the conference room, the room was quiet for a moment. On the one hand, it was because he walked directly to the rostrum, and on the other hand, it was because of him.

It was not that he was so majestic, mysterious or imposing, but because his appearance was too young and time had not left any trace on his face. Although he had taken care of his hairstyle for this meeting, his appearance was still too young. He still looked like a handsome young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, and the rest of the room were either old or middle-aged.

He clamped his military cap under his ribs, his steps were steady and powerful, and he glanced into the room as he walked.

This glance made many people tighten their muscles. Because at this time they realized that the young man on the rostrum was actually able to "catch all the heads of state" of the audience.

However, the previous efforts of Dai Bingcheng and the Yanjing government were very effective. This idea just wandered in people's hearts and disappeared in a flash. Because no mature regime in the world today could fall into chaos because of the sudden death of the head of state. Even if the worst situation today occurs, it is a "disaster" that they represent.

Li Zhen stood behind the stage and stretched out a finger to bounce it on the microphone. Of course, there was no need to "speak out" at meetings of this level. He was just using this action to attract people's attention.

He then put his cap on the stage and said before someone spoke: "In July this year, we found this thing near the equator in the Pacific Ocean."

After saying this, he pinched a projector at the tip of his left finger. The light was projected from the button-sized projector, and weaved a blue ocean in the void beside him.

The venue became quieter now. Because no one would have thought that Li Zhen was so direct-he didn't even have a single opening remark or outline what he was going to say next.

Now he looks more like a teacher - a young lecturer who is in a bad mood, walks into the classroom with a ringtone and lecture notes, and then starts lectures with a gloomy face.

This behavior was quite rude, and it caused a slight commotion in the audience. Although it was impossible for someone to stand up and whine loudly due to identity or other reasons, Li Zhen still saw resentment on some people's faces.

But this is exactly the effect he wanted. Because his appearance was so young - he had to at least give these people a more intuitive reason to have some strong emotions towards him, even if this emotion was negative.

Therefore, when he moved his finger, the three-dimensional projection around him changed. What appeared in the camera before was a blue sky, but now the camera is advancing rapidly and pulling up. So a large vortex is displayed.

The ocean is vast and the sky is vast. People have no exact concept of the size of this vortex. The photographer seemed to have considered this a long time ago, so he ingested some ships into the camera.

It was an aircraft carrier battle group, and people could identify it from the appearance of that aircraft carrier. It was an empire's "Zhenguo" class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. The USS General, which sank five years ago, was the first ship of this class aircraft carrier, and its length was 368.8 meters.

But at present, the aircraft carrier battle group composed of such a giant looks like it is close to the edge of the big vortex.

The vortex looked like a huge and smooth plate. This aircraft carrier battle group was like a melon seed on the side of the plate.

Li Zhen finally successfully attracted all the attention of these people.

Obviously what he was going to say was not consistent with what these people originally imagined, so someone finally couldn't help but speak. It was a prime minister of a certain European country. He raised his hand slightly and said, "General Li, what is the theme of today's meeting?"

Li Zhen looked up at him calmly and said, "About this vortex and the things that created this vortex."

The Prime Minister was stunned. He glanced at the projection beside Li Zhen again and said in a low voice: "What do you mean - species? species have not been completely eliminated? Are they here?"

Because of his words, many people began to look at each other and whispered. Because if this was today's issue - if the species were still gathering in the Pacific Ocean to survive, then the meeting of this level would have been a big deal.

Today's humans are not the human beings in the past. They have become more resilient and have more powerful weapons. In the past few years, many species that have just awakened and not very powerful were wiped out by humans with the power of technology, and people have learned more from such battles. After experiencing natural catastrophes and initially caught off guard, species have become enemies that people can face directly with a rational attitude.

Some people even showed an unfathomable smile on the corners of their mouths. Perhaps this Southern Luzon general was indeed too young - he was undeniable to have unrivaled combat power - but in some things, he was indeed a little too frivolous, and he was indeed not like a qualified "politician".

Dai Bingcheng only showed a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Li Zhen took their expressions in his eyes and shook his head.

"No." He said, "It is not a species. It is not a group of species. It is another thing-a...individual who has not yet fully awakened."

He slowly emphasized again: "A single individual created this thing-with its insignificant little power."

The conference room calmed down again - his words made the faint smile on the corners of many people's mouths condense.

People once again turned their attention to the images beside him. And this time, someone finally discovered an extremely inconspicuous small black dot in the middle of the extremely huge vortex.

Someone said in a silence: "You mean that thing?"

His finger pointed to the black dot. So Li Zhen also moved his fingers - the camera began to draw closer.

From a distance, the sea water in the vortex seemed to be solidified, like a plate. But as the camera got closer and closer, people saw that the sea water was actually rotating rapidly. However, because of their speed so fast, there was no wave on the sea surface. The huge amount of sea water was oppressed by some more terrifying force and was attracted to the center of the vortex.

Then the center of the vortex was not a bottomless abyss, it turned out to be an island made of rocks... or a statue.

The camera finally stopped about two thousand meters away from the statue. It seemed that it was affected by some force during the shooting, and the image became less clear and shaking slightly. However, people could still see the outline of the island - it looked like a bust.

This bust has a head, a left arm, and a curved chest.

Its chest was indeed curved - like a hunchbacked old man, or had his spine removed.

And it also has hair on its head - gray-brown short hair.

There are no references around the island, and it is difficult for people to figure out how big it is. But Li Zhen pointed to the layer of "short hair" on his head and said, "These are carbonized vegetation. I have been to this island before - it was indeed an island at that time - the average height of trees on it was about twenty meters."

"...what is that?" a president cried out in disobedience. "You said it is not a species? You mean... it is alive?"

Others stared at Li Zhen with scrutiny. The image he showed was too incredible. If that thing was really a creature, then its height might have reached nearly a thousand meters! This kind of thing was completely impossible from a biological point of view. Although there are special cases of species, species will appear much "normal" compared to this thing.

What's more, this thing does look like a statue or a statue that resembles a human figure. What they think more is whether it is something similar to a "isolation belt" that people have never heard of before has created this wonder?

Li Zhen raised his hands and pressed it down gently. He said, "Gentlemen, I cannot answer your question accurately for the time being - this is not my deception. Because I need to tell you more things before, and it requires your patience. So I hope you can give me enough time - I also believe that the things I have shown before can make you do this."

"And what I want to emphasize is that everything I say next is what it tells me."

He raised his hand and pointed at the statue.

"You mean...you've communicated with it?" asked the president.

"Yes." Li Zhen nodded, "In some way you may not understand. Mr. President, you just asked me what it is. So now let's define this thing first."

"In my opinion, it is some kind of extremely powerful, long-standing creature. Its history can even be traced back to the time when the earth was just formed and the lava on the surface condensed." Li Zhen spread his hands, "Of course, what I said may not be consistent with the biological knowledge you know. If you have any questions, you can listen to everything I said as a story with a critical attitude."

"What's the standard for exceptionally powerful?" someone asked.

Many people look at Li Zhen with the same eyes as the questioner. Li Zhen realizes that this seems to be a good start - they are seriously considering the authenticity of the question they are talking about without simply treating it as a madman's delusion.

So he nodded and said in a calm tone: "What I just said is my definition of it. However, from its own perspective, according to the way we understand it - it calls itself God."
