God’s calculation? Man’s calculation! The end of mankind! Chapter 96 Destruction and courage
After hearing Sheyan's explanation, President Wilson sighed in disappointment. He looked as if he had aged several years out of thin air. Then he sat down tiredly on the cold iron chair next to him and pressed his temples hard with his fingers---
----Because the airship is floating after all, it avoids accidentally injuring people when it is in danger of violent shaking. These furniture are all fixed, so they are not very comfortable.
Looking at this venerable president, I couldn't help but feel a little. Obviously, compared with his predecessors such as father and son presidents Bush, Clinton, and Nixon, Wilson really looked like a colleague.
Saint. Zi pulled the presidential assistant Sally aside. Not long after, Sally brought a basin of hot water and went to the cooking room in the back to get busy.
Soon, the scalding hot towel, sticky warm cocoa, and a large sandwich injected new energy into President Wilson. It stands to reason that under the psychological pressure and physical pressure, the President was already very tired at this time.
, but he still insisted on taking a look at the lives of the other people on the giant airship before resting. In order to show respect, Fang Sheyan and his party also accompanied him.
It must be said here that Sheyan and the others were quite well prepared. At this time, the staff on the airship were distributing a series of necessary supplies to everyone in an orderly manner, including a number plate, a set of toiletries, and a
The fibers are a bit harsh and harsh, but it is a gray blanket that is large and thick enough.
In this way, even if those who have just boarded the boat have lost all their belongings, they at least have a safe place to lie down and rest, and a bed that may not be too comfortable but can keep them warm. In addition,
In addition, because the number of people rescued exceeded previous expectations, some people could only make beds on the floor in the corridor.
After seeing Sheyan and the President, many people were so excited that tears filled their eyes. Some even struggled to crawl in front of them and kiss their insteps. It can be seen that the prestige of the President and Sheyan among the survivors had already been lost.
To what extent.
After accompanying the president to visit the two giant airships, President Wilson, although he maintained a critical eye, finally nodded in approval. Because this was a special period, everyone was asked not to go out and walk around in the cabin. Dinner was served by
Special dining cars are distributed in sequence. Only those with license plates can eat. There are two huge aluminum buckets on top of the dining cars.
As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. Naturally, President Wilson was very concerned and walked over to check the situation. He found that the first aluminum bucket was filled with high-density biscuits that had been compressed into squares. Everyone could share this stuff.
A piece the size of a cigarette box, it will almost break your teeth when you bite it. The biscuits in an aluminum bucket can supply at least a dozen cabins.
In the second aluminum bucket, there is a very hot soup, mixed with chopped carrots, a large amount of butter, meat floss, and corn kernels. Everyone is issued toiletries. Among them is a military kettle.
And large lunch boxes, everyone can get a full box.
President Wilson also ordered a dinner and ate it with the people. By the way, he listened to their voices and opinions. As far as the president personally was concerned, this dinner definitely had no taste, but high-density compression
The biscuits are swollen in the thick soup and eaten. It can be said to be a generous portion, enough to make an adult full. There is also a lot of butter in the soup. Although it seems very greasy, it is good for restoring energy and resisting resistance.
The cold is still very helpful, and it can be seen that the organizers have put a lot of thought into it.
While eating, there were also some discordant sounds, that is, some people were not used to eating such simple food, so they threw it away despite the sign strictly prohibiting wasting food.
This behavior attracted the attention of the security personnel, and they were quickly punished... The number plate of the person who dumped the food was taken away and will not be returned until thirty-six hours later, which means that he will face at least
The embarrassing situation of being hungry for four meals.
Generally speaking, President Wilson seems very satisfied with the current orderly order of the entire airship fleet. At the same time, an emergency signal was sent from the master control room: a tsunami is coming. In order to cope with the next severe weather, the airship will do its best.
Climb up and force all external exits to close.
At the same time, warnings are continuously sent within the entire airship formation in the form of broadcasts:
We hope that all passengers will stay in their cabins and not go out, and hold on to something stable. In addition, if you are confident about your body, you can go near the porthole to pay your last respects to our great, beautiful, spectacular and magnificent Washington.
farewell.
The tide in the distance was vast and turbulent, piling up on the horizon like dense clouds, rushing over madly. The highest wave looked down at the land from a bird's eye view, drowning it without any suspense. Everyone watched in silence.
Below, on the highest peak of the wave, there was even an aircraft carrier, which symbolized the most powerful conventional force of mankind, being washed over. The Stars and Stripes logo on it was clearly visible, and then...
Crushed the White House fiercely!!
President Wilson's tears silently slid down his wrinkled old face at this moment. The capital that once represented the most powerful country in the world, in such a torn and broken form, fell into nothingness in the unprecedented tide!
At this moment, this old black man, this president who could look down on life and death and share the joys and sorrows of his own people! His face burst into tears, and he cried completely out of control!!!
This sad emotion spread throughout the entire boat in an instant, and cries came and went.
The terrifying huge waves surged over in an instant, directly wiping away the architectural history and civilization that had been soaked in the painstaking efforts of generations. Looking around, there was nothing but a vast expanse of white. The color was really despairing.
!In the distance where the sky and the ocean meet, the dark clouds are as solid as mountains, surging wildly, and there is a faint electric light inside.
Fang Senyan felt such an atmosphere of loss, sadness and despair, and instinctively felt that he should say something, so he walked up to President Wilson and said seriously:
"Mr. President, Washington may be buried deep under the sea, but why do these three words make us tremble and move, and why do they make us burst into tears? The meaning behind it, the spirit it represents! It is definitely not the four words of dejection and sadness.
If we miss it, then it is enough to engrave it in the depths of our memory. But if we suffer from its demise, why not rebuild a new Washington with our hands in the future? Rebuild a more magnificent city, you know,
Before AD 17**, this was a wasteland beside the Potomac River!"
President Wilson raised his eyes. Although his red eyes were still full of tears, if you look carefully, his fists were clenched again.
Fang Senyan continued:
"According to accurate intelligence, the flood will only cover the earth for ten days at most, and then it will recede. At that time, we will still be facing a brand new earth. Mr. President, I disagree with something you have repeatedly emphasized.
, you said that you are the last president of the United States of America, but I believe that as long as there are still people alive and as long as everyone has the dream of rebuilding their country in their hearts, then the United States of America will not perish!"
Everyone looked at Sheyan, even President Wilson looked at him in surprise. Then, the presidential assistant Sally was the first to burst into tears and clapped vigorously, followed by the rest of the people next to him, and finally even President Wilson
also joined in.
Fang Senyan saw that the morale of a group of people had been restored, and knowing that his words had an effect, he smiled slightly, and then said loudly to the mechanical cabin:
"Hey, Santa, we're coming up too slow! We have to get on top of those terrible thunder and cumulonimbus clouds before they come."
Shante is a technician personally trained by Doctor Octopus. He has served on the boat for a total of three hundred hours, so he shouted very skillfully:
"That's what I'm doing! Our altitude is now 3,700 meters. When storms and thunderstorms come, the strong winds they bring will make our ascent faster!"
In the next half hour, all passengers experienced the feeling of traveling through thunderstorm clouds. Thinking about lightning and strong winds raging through a thin bulkhead, it must have been an amazing feeling.
Very exciting.
Fortunately, the God of Luck still favored them. Only one giant airship was hit by lightning, but it could still barely fly. Soon, the airship rose to a place twelve kilometers above the ground according to the expected design.
The latitude area is already at the top of the troposphere.
So you can see the electric light shining in the thick black cumulonimbus clouds full of water vapor below, and they are like small boats drifting with the current, moving quickly in the strong wind. This is also within the previous design plan, the strong wind affects
The huge and strong airship airbag does not pose a threat at all, just as no matter how fast the water flow is, there is no way for a hollow and sealed can box to sink underwater forever.
At this time, the entire airship formation has entered a stable period. They are expected to drift in the air for more than seventy-two hours, and then the angry earth will slowly restrain its anger. Most of the people on the airship formation also
Fang Senyan and the others drank thick, bitter coffee with President Wilson and did not fall asleep, because they had more important things to do now.
