Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.

The fault-finding boss was very displeased. To find out the truth, he went straight to where the leader was after lunch.

"Mr. President, what exactly is going on? Tell me quickly, I'm sitting here on pins and needles. Why do we have to listen to that guy surnamed Xu?"

"Ugh!"

The president looked displeased.

"To be honest, we already know what you did at the party. But I want to ask you, do you really think we need to continue to be so stubborn? If you want to stand your ground, no one will stop you. But you must take this seriously: we are really facing a formidable enemy this time."

"What? Even you say that?"

"Because we saw it with our own eyes."

These few words left the fault-finding boss speechless; he never expected the situation to be so serious.

"No wonder he wanted me to cooperate with him and even asked me to provide a sales network. As the country's largest arms dealer, I have no interest in doing such a thing."

“Mr. Lawrence, we will not force you to do these messy things; it is your right.”

In truth, Lawrence was deeply conflicted. He only wanted to sell weapons and had no interest in global affairs. He was willing to cooperate on other matters, but handing over his existing sales network was like cutting off a piece of his own flesh.

“Mr. Lawrence, let me reiterate: think it through carefully. No one will force you. Besides, they said that everything is based on the principle of voluntariness. If you think that Mr. Xu is lying, you can choose not to join, or you can even go to Atlantis to communicate with them.”

"never mind!"

Lawrence looked displeased.

"If I had to choose, I'd still choose the Great Shang Kingdom. That Atlantis Kingdom is like a bandit kingdom; if I really handed over the network, it would be completely meaningless."

That afternoon, Lawrence came directly to Jiang Chuan's office and brought a gift.

"I'm so sorry, I really didn't know what had happened before, I thought you were lying to me."

This arms convention lasted for half a month, and the truth and details of everything have been basically ascertained. Next, a new phase will begin, with arms dealers collaborating with countries around the world.

Unfortunately, the nation of Atlantis did not participate in this conference.

Of course, the higher-ups did not give up on getting Atlantis to join and still hoped that Jones could change his mind, but each time they received a rejection.

"That's it!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuan shook his head immediately.

"A woman with such limited vision is hindering the country's development. I am not discriminating against women, but the fact that someone like her can become president only shows that Atlantis has declined beyond redemption, and we don't need to waste our energy on her."

However, the current situation has not calmed down. First, although the Progressive Society has suffered heavy losses due to various past reasons, it has not been completely wiped out. Therefore, they urgently need to find a new base. At this time, countries around the world have begun to cooperate, except for Atlantis, which is excluded. The Progressive Society took the opportunity to infiltrate its influence there.

Furthermore, there is a serious problem: Putt, still in prison, remains unaware of what is happening outside. However, during this time, he has managed to persuade several prison guards using his cleverness.

“I’m telling you, politicians all over the world are deceiving you. Their words are meaningless. Do you still want to continue working for this country? Come with me, and the Lord will solve all your problems.”

Such words could be heard almost daily in the prisons of Atlantis. The president had even cultivated a following within the prison.

As the incident escalated, Atlantis became a major disaster area, with numerous related videos circulating online.

These videos quickly attracted worldwide attention, and the federation directly questioned the representatives of Atlantis:

"Why don't you stop these remarks in time? Don't forget, these are dangerous statements that threaten global security!"

"no!"

The representative looked displeased.

“In our country, everyone has freedom of speech. We can say whatever we approve of. Besides, do you really want us to give up our principles so easily? Even if these words are wrong, we can just criticize them.”

This time, Jiang Chuan refuted him face to face:

"Isn't your country aware of this? The Progressive Association is now recognized globally as a terrorist organization. How can such an organization still enjoy freedom of speech?"

"I'm sorry, I admit the Progressive Association is a terrorist organization, but can you guarantee that the people who made these videos are from the Progressive Association?"

"Ugh!"

Jiang Chuan was speechless.

"It's not the god-like opponents we fear, but the pig-like teammates. If Atlantis continues to go its own way, it can only wait for its demise."

"What do you mean? This is the UN General Assembly, not a place where you can run wild! Explain yourself clearly. How are we suddenly facing national annihilation? We have freedom of speech, is that wrong? We have human rights, we are more advanced than you, so what?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as this representative finished speaking, other representatives from around the world shook their heads.

"Stop bragging about your advanced technology in front of us. Atlantis, a nation that was once destroyed by the fifth-dimensional world, still has the nerve to be arrogant in front of us? You've really forgotten the pain of your past mistakes!"

"Exactly! They still haven't learned their lesson and insist on those universally acknowledged wrong ideas. Is your president just a clueless idiot or a complete naive fool?"

"To be honest, your country is really stupid. If it weren't for that great battle back then, which brought together scientists from all over the world, you wouldn't be in this situation now. So, you really should reflect on why you have declined so much. A former military superpower was actually wiped out by a fifth-dimensional world. It's simply an international joke!"

……

At this point, the representative could no longer stand it.

"I don't care about you anymore. We don't need to stay in this organization anymore. You guys are so stupid."

After saying that, the representative immediately informed Jones of what had happened.

"Ugh!"

Jones shook his head helplessly.

"To be honest, their attitude towards us was really terrible. We know what to do, and since everyone has this idea, let's just ignore it for now."

Just as Jones was still deeply entangled in his dilemma and indecisiveness, his little white house suddenly received a shocking message.

"what?"

Jones stared at the battle report before him, utterly astonished.

"What kind of bastard did this?" It turned out that while nations around the world were still arguing over trivial matters, the nation of Atlantis had encountered a sudden and unexpected catastrophe. At the same time, all the aircraft carriers docked in the west coast naval port exploded, and even more shockingly, almost all of the ships suffered severe damage.

"This is blatant provocation against our country! Have they already begun an attack on us? We must find out who's behind this!"

This incident had a huge impact, and Jones immediately rushed to the speaking venue to announce publicly:
"Although it is not yet clear which force was responsible, we must not let the culprits who bombed our naval port and fleet go unpunished. From now on, we will enter a state of first-level combat readiness, all troops will cancel their leave and immediately engage in combat preparations."

However, while this news was encouraging, it also left a mystery: who exactly is the enemy?

Sure enough, three days passed, and no one, including Yaget, could find the key to the problem.

"Hey! I've already issued a general mobilization order, and three days have passed. What have you intelligence agencies been doing? Still no idea who did it? Don't we even have this much capability? Can't we even figure out about orbital warfare?"

The orbital warfare mentioned here refers to missile attacks. But the question is, if it really was a missile, why was there no warning at the beginning?
Logically, given Atlantis's military technology, they should have been able to detect and activate the anti-missile system in advance. Therefore, this is likely a mysterious incident.

But Jones was clearly unwilling to accept this reality. However, just a week after the attack on Atlantis, the Great Shang Dynasty also suffered an attack.

It turned out that a mysterious force had also begun to sabotage their fleet. However, thanks to the Great Shang Kingdom's prior preparations, only the naval port was damaged, and the damage was not severe.

This matter immediately attracted the attention of the military, and Jiang Chuan and others rushed to the scene.

"I'd like to know, didn't the cameras capture anything unusual?"

"Boss, we checked the cameras carefully. It was nighttime, and the infrared technology didn't detect anything unusual. After the ship was protected, there were no more problems, but the naval port seemed to have exploded on its own."

"There's nothing there, how could it explode on its own? That doesn't make sense. Did someone plant explosives beforehand and set a timer to detonate it?"

Jiang Chuan still didn't believe it.

"That's impossible. Our naval port is heavily guarded, with sentries everywhere. This is our gateway, how could such a big oversight occur? If someone dares to plant a bomb in our naval port, then this naval port is no longer needed."

Chen Guodong clearly didn't believe this would happen either. So, if not for this reason, what force could have accomplished this?

Jiang Chuan began to wonder, could it be that the higher-dimensional world has already begun to launch an attack on us?
"I think this is very strange."

At this moment, Chen Tianfei, who was next to Jiang Chuan, suddenly spoke.

"If a higher-dimensional world were to attack us, there would be no need for this show of force. They could just come directly, since we can't defeat them anyway."

"No!"

Jiang Chuan shook his head.

"I don't think things are that simple. If this was a terrorist attack carried out by the Progressive Association, I think it's possible."

"That's too arrogant! To directly attack our naval port, what kind of power could do that? Could it be that an uncontrollable supernatural force has appeared in human society?"

Chen Guodong clearly still didn't believe it.

Coincidentally, three days later, ports in several European countries also experienced large-scale damage.

At this point, Prologis could no longer sit still.

"I strongly condemn this irresponsible behavior! Who did this? Have the guts to do it, but not the guts to admit it? Get to the bottom of this quickly. If you dare to admit it, I'll respect you as men!"

However, such incidents are now escalating, and military forces around the world have not been spared. Not only have navies suffered heavy losses, but armies and air forces have also suffered losses to varying degrees, and the methods of attack are strikingly consistent.

Left with no other option, countries have chosen to move their weapons and equipment underground as much as possible in order to ensure absolute safety.

Just then, Jiang Chuan also received a message that if it weren't for the protection of the energy shield, their base would probably have been invaded as well.

"Wait a minute, does this mean those people have discovered my secret base? Let's go see what's going on."

Upon arriving at the secret base, Jiang Chuan quickly retrieved the camera footage. Because the equipment here was specially modified, it was able to capture traces of supernatural forces.

"What the hell is this?"

Chen Tianfei took a closer look and saw an object shaped like a water droplet, but it was unusually large and had a smooth, mirror-like surface. The key point was that it was also very transparent and could reflect light at night, which explained why it was difficult to detect.

"This doesn't make sense. If it's a weapon made by humans, how could it have this shape? Besides, with such a smooth surface, it should shatter upon impact with our fleet."

Chen Tianfei was completely bewildered.

"What if its molecular arrangement is absolutely perfect?"

Chen Feifei's idea surprised Chen Tianfei greatly.

"Little sister, you're joking with me. There's no such substance on Earth, with such a perfect molecular arrangement. It's just a rigorous and idealized assumption in theoretical physics, isn't it?"

"Just because we can't do it doesn't mean others can't. And what if this wasn't done by people from our world?"

Chen Feifei felt that war might have already quietly arrived, but the countries were simply unwilling to admit it.

"Is your claim reliable? Let me tell you, it's not that simple. If it really is a weapon from a higher dimension, we have no way to deal with it. But the question is, why can our protective shield stop it?"

"Our protective shield is achieved through energy distribution. Although the water droplet cannot penetrate it, it remains intact. It's like a ball that bounces when dropped on the ground."

Imaging technology shows that the "water droplet" was indeed bounced up when it touched the energy shield.

Even more shockingly, this "water droplet" repeatedly tried to break through, but ultimately failed and had to leave.

"How about this, we'll extend the energy shield globally to at least ensure that military bases in various countries can operate normally."

Jiang Chuan then submitted a report to his superiors and Chen Guodong, which was quickly approved.

This time, Jones dared not refuse and immediately provided full protection for the military base as requested.

Faced with this series of events, the superiors were also puzzled, so they called Jiang Chuan and others to their office.

"My opinion is that this must be sent by people from a higher dimension to test our strength."

Chen Feifei offered her own perspective, which sounded quite reasonable.

"I agree."

At the crucial moment, Xu Jiajia also voted in favor. (End of Chapter)
