Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 66 Kneel down
"How dare they refuse a request for a visit from a leader of the civilized camp!"

This is something that has never happened since the founding of this great Western country!
Every country, upon hearing a request for a foreign visit, would be extremely respectful and cautious. How dare that Eastern country do such a thing!
Faced with the president's anger, the aide's face showed both urgency and a touch of pallor: "Mr. President, you have to do something!"

"Oh? Dear Rodri, tell me, what should I do now?"
Should we immediately impose sanctions on them, or deport their illegal immigrants?

"Mr. President, please calm down."

Let's analyze this incident in its entirety.

According to common sense and past practice, our request to visit abroad will not be refused.

They are a peace-loving group, always have been, and they will never refuse the goodwill we extend to them.

But now, they have refused, even after just demonstrating their strength—so, who exactly were they targeting with this display of power?
It's us!

The president's anger receded like a receding tide, instantly replaced by a serious expression.

He immediately realized that although the matter could not be completely confirmed at this moment, it was already a possibility.

When national security is threatened, even if it is only a potential threat, one must take immediate action.

He looked sternly at his subordinates, his voice more solemn than ever before: "We can't hesitate any longer."

We must act decisively, immediately, and without delay, do something to try to repair our relationship with them.

"My dear Rodri, you're in charge. Draft a plan immediately."

"Yes."

"Remember, you must get there before other countries."

……

That night, the lights in the enormous office stayed on until late. Countless high-ranking officials, staff, advisors, and strategists came and went, each with a solemn expression, which only subsided in the early hours of the morning.

Then, on a well-known social networking site, the president's personal account updated with a new post.

"For thousands of years, that great Eastern country has stood at the pinnacle of humankind, guiding the entire civilization forward."

They have a brilliant culture, and their achievements amaze us all.

Even today, this great nation with a long history and rich cultural tradition remains at the forefront of the times, making irreplaceable, unique, and most important contributions to maintaining world peace, shaping the international order, and enhancing the overall well-being of human civilization—even surpassing our own.

I am honored, both personally and in my country, to share this beautiful blue planet with such a great nation.

This post wasn't written in my native language, but rather in the Chinese characters of that Eastern country.

Not only that, the president also attached a picture after posting the update.

Inside the spacious, round office, two flag ornaments were placed on the desk, one of which was conspicuously red.

The president stood beside the two flags placed side by side, a broad smile on his face.

The image clearly highlights the key elements, placing him and the two flags in the center of the frame so that viewers can see them immediately.

The president has tens of millions of followers on social media. This post was seen by countless people in countries all over the world the instant it was published.

Moreover, fans also noticed that almost at the same time, all the top officials of this major Western power retweeted this post.

The entire "matrix" has hundreds of millions of fans.

At that moment, countless people stared wide-eyed in disbelief, almost thinking there was something wrong with their eyes.

But after blinking, rubbing my eyes, and refreshing the webpage time and time again, that post still quietly appeared on the screen.

Aside from a surge in comments, nothing else changed. This bombshell post spread rapidly across the internet.

Then a series of wonderful things happened.

"I have said long ago that the strength of the Western powers is beyond the imagination of those yellow-skinned barbarians. If the Western powers so desire, they can immediately shock the whole world."

Previously, such comments would only attract countless followers and offer numerous words of approval and praise.

The few opposing arguments are quickly drowned out, barely making a ripple.

But things are different now.

Countless previously suppressed voices erupted like a geyser, with almost every mocking post instantly attracting a large number of counter-comments.

"This is truly shocking. Holy crap, I didn't know this old man could also do a sliding knee slide."

"Tsk tsk, your sliding knee posture is pretty standard. Did you practice secretly before?"

"This ornament looks to be of good quality. Where did you buy it?"

"We were ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?"

At this moment, the entire online world went almost into a frenzy.

Countless people had their values ​​shattered and their worldviews collapsed, creating chaos and leaving them speechless. Yet, a few die-hards continued their frenzied clamor.

"Hackers from an Eastern country stole the passwords; these updates are fake! The images are AI-generated!"

“I lived in that Eastern country for a long time and know them very well. This is indeed something they are capable of doing.”

"That's impossible! That Eastern country has already collapsed, and its people are living in misery! I escaped from there, barely escaping to this civilized land after a near-death experience. It's all a lie!"

"Yes, I understand. This is how the benevolent and compassionate president took the initiative to show weakness in order to avoid war and the deaths of innocent people, so as to make that barbaric country repent!"
Are you still so stubborn? This is your last chance to surrender!

These die-hards don't make many noises, and they are met with ridicule as soon as they appear.

"Stop licking, even your boss is kneeling."

"There's no more dog food left if you keep licking."

"I don't understand. Shouldn't these people from that Eastern country be happy that it has become powerful? Why are they so angry?"

"Think about it, how would you feel if the stocks you sold kept soaring?"

"Oh, I see, that's really hateful."

"Damn, that felt great!"

The online world was abuzz with news about Doomsday Base 7, where Jiang Yang, accompanied by Zhou Yu, had already begun a new phase of his studies.

During the break, Zhou Yu took out her phone and scrolled through it, then suddenly burst into laughter.

Jiang Yang took it and looked at it, a smile appearing on his lips.

"Jiang Yang, do you think our country will react to this?"

Jiang Yang smiled and shook his head: "Probably not."

There's still so much for us to do; let them be.
