From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 208 Situation

A few days after the incident of stealing Sykes Technology's data, a spokesperson for the White Eagle Federation made a statement that sparked public opinion on the Internet.

The White Eagle Federation claims that Daxia has obtained the technology of the future world, and its technological level is 1,500 years ahead of existing human technology.

The White Eagle Federation also pointed out that this technological information about the future world is the technological assistance of the Sykes civilization to human civilization and is the common wealth of all mankind.

The White Eagle spokesman also severely condemned Daxia for monopolizing this scientific and technological information, and called on countries around the world to unite and demand that Daxia disclose this scientific and technological information of the Sykes civilization.

After this statement was released, it immediately caused a worldwide public opinion storm.

Countries around the world, especially those in the Western world, all pointed their fingers at Daxia, believing that Daxia was a stumbling block to the development of human civilization and a sinner of human civilization.

The White Eagle Federation also publicly stated that it would unite countries around the world to issue threats and impose sanctions if Daxia refused to hand over the scientific and technological information of the Sykes civilization.

Human nature is a wonderful thing.

An ancient wise man once said a very wise saying: What is worrying is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of wealth.

Things are just so helpless.

If all human beings did not have cyber technology, there would be no open or secret fighting for the seizure of cyber technology.

But now that Daxia has the 1.6-level technological information of the Sykes civilization in its hands, it has immediately become the target of public criticism.

Countries that have not obtained this scientific and technological information all want to rush in to grab a piece of the cake.

The enemy country first sent people with special abilities to try to snatch it away, but when they failed, they immediately turned to using propaganda to incite countries around the world to target the East.

As the public opinion grew more and more serious, it caused many malicious incidents.

There have been several incidents of harm to the Daxia people in certain countries.

And the perpetrators of this kind of violence have not received any punishment.

Even some states in the White Eagle Federation are considering legislation to ban the Daxia people from using supernatural powers.

Because they believe that the Daxia people use their supernatural powers to commit crimes such as theft.

The robber logic of the thief crying "stop thief" was used very purely.

……

This morning.

Lu Heng was invited to visit the headquarters of the Southern Theater Command and met the head of the Southern Theater Command, Li Guining, in the theater's superpower warrior training camp.

"Welcome, welcome." As the chief of the Southern Theater Command, Li Guining took the initiative to extend his hand and shake hands with Lu Heng.

"Hello, hello." Lu Heng didn't know this leader at first. After he sat down, he heard Jian Qing's introduction next to him and knew the other party's identity.

The chief of the Southern Theater Command looked to be in his fifties, had a rather honest look, and was neatly dressed, but relatively low-key.

Since he was not wearing formal attire, there were no epaulettes on his shoulders.

This is also the main reason why Lu Heng did not see his identity.

"Comrade Lu Heng, on behalf of the organization, I would like to express my commendation for your contribution. The organization has decided to give you a meritorious service reward, but we are not sure what you need, so the organization will decide and wait for you to make a request. As long as it does not violate the law or morality, and the country can do it, you can make any request." Li Guining officially represented the official and promised the reward.

Lu Heng was originally still thinking about what kind of reward he needed.

Crystal cores, weapons and equipment, all of these are acceptable.

However, one theater chief has officially promised that it is actually more valuable than weapons and equipment.

Lu Heng can make this request whenever necessary.

And this promise is most valuable before it is fulfilled.

This means that Lu Heng can ask the country to do something, something that does not violate morality and law.

The value of this promise can be infinite.

This is also the real reward for level 1.6 civilization technology.

Before, it was always Jian Qing who said that she could make a request to the country, but Jian Qing was only a captain and her promise was not that formal.

Now that it has been promised by a war zone chief, the reward is confirmed.

Subsequently.

Li Guining began to recall the previous theft incident and praised: "I read the report about you. Comrade Lu is truly a rare talent."

"You're too kind, Commander." Lu Heng said modestly.

"By the way, there have been some rumors abroad these days. Have you heard about them?" Li Guining began to talk about what happened in the past few days.

Public opinion on the outside world is controlled by White Eagle’s media mouthpieces.

This group of robbers first sent people with special powers to rob, but when they found that the robbery was unsuccessful, they immediately began to use public opinion to carry out targeted smear campaign.

They have learned the famous saying that what is worrying is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth.

If no one had this technology, there would naturally be no dispute over this matter.

But if one country obtains this future technology, other countries that have not obtained it will naturally bear a grudge.

Therefore, public opinion on the outside world is now overwhelmingly attacking Daxia.

Even some remote breeding products in the country have joined in criticizing their own country, believing that Daxia should disclose cyber technology, believing that this is the normal way to promote the development of human civilization. Li Guining chatted: "Comrade Lu, what do you think of the current public opinion outside?"

Lu Heng thought for a moment and replied, "Just ignore it."

Li Guining nodded slightly and asked, "Aren't you worried that our Daxia's image will be damaged?"

Lu Heng smiled and replied: "Our ancestors have already told us the answer. Those who are not of our race must have different hearts. Even if this incident did not happen, don't expect Western countries to have a good attitude towards the Daxia people."

Li Guining agreed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so insightful at such a young age. You're not like some young people who learn a little bit of foreign culture and start pointing fingers on the Internet."

Lu Heng had seen too much cruelty at the end of the abyss and knew what the nature of the descendants of those Western bandits was like.

In contrast, the people of Daxia are hardworking, tenacious, and have the ability to make their lives better by farming.

This is completely different from the history of the rise of some ethnic groups, which relied on plundering and pure banditry.

Daxia had the ability to travel across oceans in ancient times, but wherever it went, its main purpose was to spread civilization and exchange culture.

After certain ethnic groups learned to sail, they would launch bloody massacres every time they discovered a new continent, and even wipe out the indigenous people and then occupy the land.

The descendants of these robbers have cruelty and meanness written in their genes.

Plunder was done with muskets and spears centuries ago, and with financial warfare centuries later.

The means used have changed, but the essence has never changed.

Li Guining thought for a moment and asked, "The public opinion abroad is very unfavorable to us now. How do you think we should deal with it?"

Lu Heng smiled calmly and replied, "There is no need to worry about it. Times have changed. If they had other options, they wouldn't have cursed."

Because of his memory of rebirth, Lu Heng knew very well that this world was no longer a world where public opinion alone could influence the situation.

In peacetime, public opinion is still useful.

When the end of the world comes, even survival is a luxury, and public opinion is a joke.

When those countries that slandered and insulted Daxia are beaten by the abyss demons to the point that they have no temper left, they will immediately slide down on their knees and run over to ask for help.

Some ethnic groups are so ridiculous, when they think they are powerful, they act bossy, but when they are beaten to a pulp, they can lower themselves to beg, and when begging they have to hold their necks high to maintain their self-righteous nobility.

Lu Heng has seen too much.

It is destined that it is impossible to preserve all countries in the human world. As the situation develops, some countries that are not cooperative are destined to perish.

Daxia is the last place that maintains the flame of civilization, because Daxia is the largest industrial country on Blue Star, and the people living on this land are the most hardworking group of people on the planet.

Lu Heng paused, and added: "I have seen other worlds invaded by the abyss. According to the law of development, the living environment of mankind will become increasingly worse. It won't be long before those who scold us come to beg us."

Li Guining then asked: "So do you think future technology should be made public?"

Lu Heng shook his head and replied: "It cannot be made public."

Li Guining then asked: "Why?"

It’s not that he really didn’t know the answer, but he wanted to hear Lu Heng’s thoughts.

Lu Heng thought for a moment and replied, "Let me predict how the situation will develop after the future technology is made public.

“After future science and technology is made public, Western countries will certainly conduct scientific research after obtaining scientific and technological information.

“Then the question is, what technologies will they research?

"This scientific and technological data of the Sykes civilization covers all industries and fields, from the most basic screw to spacecraft.

“So, even if we want to absorb all the technologies, it is difficult to do it in a short period of time, let alone other countries.

"Therefore, those Western countries can only selectively research some of these technologies, and only a small part of them.

“So what technologies will they choose?

"The answer is simple: weapons, powerful weapons.

“For a person who is used to thinking like a bandit, when he sees a farming tool and a musket in front of him and can only choose one, he will definitely choose the musket.

“However, the people of Daxia are different, many of them will choose farming tools.

“That’s the difference.

“Once we make Sykes technology public, the result will inevitably be that those Western countries will use all their energy to research future weapons.

“Fusion bombs, antimatter bombs, anything with strong destructive power they won’t let go.

“In the end, we hold farming tools and have to be wary of their future technology weapons.

“Moreover, when their living environment becomes increasingly harsh, they will start to consider coming to steal our survival resources.

"They may even repeat what happened centuries ago, coming to occupy our land and rob our industrial system."

Li Guining smiled and asked, "If that's the case, do you think it's feasible to make farming technology public but not weapon technology public?"

Lu Heng shook his head again: "It's not feasible. It's better not to disclose it. If we disclose part of the technology, then those Western countries will think that we are easy to talk to, and will only use more despicable means to force us to disclose our weapons technology.

"In short, this is an unsolvable situation. Their racial characteristics determine their bandit logic, and it will not change at all because of our kindness."
