Major general is the corresponding rank of the Hall of Fame Executive in the military, but it is often just an empty rank. After all, the Countermeasures Bureau is fundamentally a special agency of the military.

"Well, we did meet, General. You decorated me."

An Ran also showed a more friendly smile, and actually didn't think about the old man. The handsome old man kept chattering, trying to describe him as the only hero who could save the crisis.

"This disaster is so severe that it may submerge the entire American continent. We haven't seen such a tsunami in hundreds of years. It's really terrible. Could it be a conspiracy by those Japanese people in District 9? Is that monster mutated by nuclear waste water? What is going on?"

MacArthur asked several questions one after another. He always believed that the monster that caused the tsunami was a mutant creature and was unwilling to believe that it was a demon.

"It was just a premeditated awakening. The dead creature's name is Deyagus. All relevant information has been sent over from the headquarters. You can take a look at it."

An Ran handed the old man a USB flash drive, which contained general information about Deiagus. However, after some modifications and deletions, it denied the fact that this creature came from the third district and described it as an ancient monster that had been sleeping in the Pacific Ocean and was awakened by the energy generated by the explosion of a ship at sea.

MacArthur took the USB drive with a heavy expression on his face. "Really...Shang?"

"There's no doubt about this. All branches received public information from the headquarters yesterday, but I didn't have time to tell you." Nuolu said as she walked to the right of An Ran.

"Fuck! Oh my God! I thought it was just a terrible natural disaster, mutant creatures, and a group of thugs destroying the city, but I thought too simply!" The old man exclaimed, "The military suppression is useless! We want to go to disaster relief, but now tell me there is a Sang!"

"This is why we are here. Although I am not good at disaster relief, I am good at dealing with those alien species, and I am happy to try to kill a Shang." An Ran signaled him to calm down.

"I'm sorry, God. I think it would be better for me to change my faith and become a cultist immediately..."

He made a phone call, "Hey, hey, hey, son, hurry to the church and put out the candles I lit this afternoon! If you ask me why, I will betray my God! Hurry up and find a cult! Any cult will do, as long as it makes me look like a cultist!"

MacArthur hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care about other people's strange looks at him. He showed his yellow teeth and asked, "Is it safe enough for me to do this?"

"That..." Sister Tang, who was sitting in the third row, kindly reminded, "I remember that in cults, when 'Allah' is resurrected, the cult members are often the first to sacrifice themselves."

"Oh my God! Is it too late for me to regret now?" MacArthur felt like a knife in his heart.

An Ran lifted the car curtain. It seemed that the world had never seen such heavy rain, but his eyes were calm, as if he had witnessed even more terrifying rain.

"I think there is still hope if I retire now..." MacArthur was very distressed and had an instinctive fear when facing a species like the Shang.

An Ran ignored the old general and asked calmly:

"Where are we going now? Chief Secretary Nolu."

"We'll go to the branch in Hub City, which is the center of the entire Second District and where all government departments are concentrated. It's currently the safest place. Of course, we have to go to the center of confidence to command how to deal with this disaster." Nuolu answered quickly. As the chief secretary, she could be the representative when senior management was absent. Now that the highest director of the headquarters was here, it was natural for her to become the secretary.

"Please inform all your ministers that Aldo is the one I want to meet with."

"Aldo? That cowardly scum?" Hearing the name, MacArthur raised his head with disdain in his eyes.

"What do you mean? Liu 0 弍尔⒊斯巴玠 is hesitant."

"As a quasi-palace, the chief of the Countermeasures Bureau guarding the second district, he deserted on the first day of the disaster. He has no faith and spirit of an executive officer. He is old and confused. Our chief is better than him in one respect. Although he fled to your third district, he still keeps in touch with us and cares about the situation."

Everyone in the car was thinking that you, a five-star general, are no different. Who was it just now who wanted to betray God and join a cult? Now you are just using everyone as a token of your loyalty.

This surprised An Ran. She didn't know that the branch director was so cowardly as to abandon everyone.

In my memory, when all the branch directors came to the headquarters for a meeting, the 80-year-old Mr. Aldo was the most severe and rigid, making people always believe that he was an upright and passionate executive.

"He is disgusting." Nolu was also dissatisfied with this man.

"I understand, Nolu Ann Wilson." An Ran looked at her.

"exist."

"From now on you are the acting director of the Second District FACA Branch. In five seconds, Zero will authorize you and perform a pupil scan. You will officially gain the authority of the director."

"Me?" Nuo Lu had no idea what he meant. The rift between them had not been resolved yet.

She wondered what this man was up to again. She had been taken advantage of badly in the third district.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that Ms. Tang, the acting chief of the Intelligence Department, will be the next person in charge. Everyone must obey her orders."

Following An Ran's introduction, except for Zhou Bowen and others who were traveling with them, MacArthur and Nuolu, who were completely unaware of the situation, were greatly shocked and turned around in disbelief.

Sister Tang, who was sitting in the back row, raised her head slightly and blinked her eyes as a greeting to everyone.

"Director! How can we take the catastrophe lightly?" Nuo Lu couldn't help but ask.

"He's just the overall person in charge. The real commander is Director An." An Ran glanced at her.

Only then did Nuolu realize that she had been a little abrupt.

"Director An is coming too?" MacArthur's old face came in front of An Ran, his beard almost pricked people.

"I'm not sure whether she will come or not. She should be connected remotely in the third zone." An Ran continued to look out the window, his expression gradually losing his original interest.

"I hope she won't come."

Chapter 585: The End of Deyagus (V)

FACA headquarters completely took over the Second District in a moment. As the "White Queen", the artificial intelligence center section of the Second District, went off, the intelligent brain called Zero lit up in the branch's central command hall.

In the center of Hub City, at the Empire State Building of the Countermeasures Bureau branch, it was raining heavily outside the window. According to the emergency notice of the Meteorological Bureau, this rain broke the record. The wind was howling and hitting the glass cooling wall violently. Several pieces of glass had already broken. The wind that came in blew up the messy reports all over the ground.

Reports flooded in within a day. In an instant, the most prosperous federal district in history fell into an irreparable catastrophe. All government agencies were almost stagnant. The Countermeasures Bureau Building became a temporary gathering point for all agencies. Pearson Todd, secretary of the Supreme Council of the Executive Palace, paced back and forth anxiously, looking up at the time from time to time. When he arrived at the Countermeasures Bureau, his mobile phone was out of battery and his watch was damaged by water, so he had to occupy the FACA communication channel.

The head of the branch's intelligence department is a middle-aged man with a big beard. His fingers are moving at a high speed on the keyboard. He is recording all the data that has occurred in the past few days and backing up all the data to the headquarters in Huacheng. According to analysis, this rain will last for at least a month, and all cities with low altitudes will be flooded.

This disaster is unprecedented, and it reminds us of the great flood in the past. However, there is no Noah's Ark in the world today. The culprit is a terrifying wolf.

The screen was analyzing the comprehensive data of the Sorrow in the Pacific Ocean. The girl's outline rotated clockwise regularly. The phagocytic cells had exceeded the total value of ten and a half Sorrows and were developing rapidly. In less than two days, it would break through the critical point of Sorrow. VII Er (Three) Ling Shi Jiu Qi San seemed that its complete arrival would destroy the entire world!

"Where is Secretary Nuolu? Can we contact her?" Tode stopped in front of the screen, anxious and worried.

"I don't know... No one can contact them. All the communication hubs built by the artificial intelligence White Queen have been interrupted, and the aliens have destroyed the White Queen's information center in California!"

The head of the intelligence department was equally distressed. Now the Second District Branch only had four usable private channels, and all public channels had been cut off. The only way to contact the Countermeasures Bureau branches in the cities below was through mobile phones. Secretary-General Konolu's phone was also turned off. Now they could only call other ministers on the front line, but these ministers were busy encircling and suppressing the aliens and had no time to talk.

"I've long told you that the White Queen's information center should not be separated from the Countermeasures Bureau building! Why can Zero at the headquarters be protected inside!" Todd couldn't help but yell, "This is the extreme consequence of relying on artificial intelligence! What about the information center in Florida? Use the military channel!"

"We are also unable to access the military channel. We have received news that there is an alien traitor in the team responsible for protecting the military information center. General MacArthur has already eliminated those lunatics, but it will take another day to restore communication. Those lunatics detonated a special bomb before they died."

"Then transfer to the military communication channel of a city farther away! It should be okay to transfer it! Don't use the nearest one, such as the one in Lunzhou!"

"We tried, but due to relying on the White Queen for a long time... the technicians were a little rusty and encountered interference when trying to transfer."

"Oh my God! Is it really that bad? This is the 21st century! Why is our experience so ridiculous? I can't stand it. There must be a mysterious force stopping us, right? A satellite phone will do, right?"

"Do not……"

"How can the satellite phone fail?" Todd was so angry that he jumped up and down, and his voice frightened everyone present, except for some executive officers and clerks.

The director of the Meteorological Bureau who came here for refuge shuddered. He was the first to run to FACA. As soon as he arrived, he heard the chief secretary of the Executive Palace venting his anger.

"It's the White Queen. In the past, in order to facilitate the military's use of FACA's intelligence resources, the satellite-controlled access key was connected. However, this also brought hidden dangers to the current situation. Now the White Queen has fallen into a semi-dormant state, so if you want to use satellite communications, you need to disconnect it."

"Then disconnect! Oh my God! Is fighting the only thing on your mind in the Countermeasures Bureau? I urgently want to know the whereabouts of Secretary-General Nolu!"

"Take it off for half an hour."

"So you just thought of untying the connection now, right?" Todd's eyes widened, the corners of his eyes almost torn with horror.

He felt deeply powerless and had an urge to die. Now all the members of the Executive Palace had taken emergency refuge, and only he, the general secretary, was left behind to deal with the aftermath. He was already upset. He knew that he was a scapegoat who was pushed out to block public opinion for politicians, but he never expected it to be so bad when he came.

At this time, a clear brake sound came from below. Todd and the head of the intelligence department subconsciously lowered their heads, not knowing who would come to the FACA branch. Twenty minutes ago, everyone who was supposed to come had arrived and occupied the office of each department as a temporary safe base to perform government agency functions.

The screen suddenly lit up, attracting everyone's attention.

"Zero has been fully connected to the second zone, the communication channels are fully open, and the communication restrictions have been lifted." It was no longer the White Queen's somewhat mischievous voice.

"Zero..." Todd muttered, looking up.

A few minutes later, a group of familiar faces suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hall. They were all the most prestigious elites. Everyone was stunned at first, and then they hurriedly stood up to greet them. Then there was warm applause for welcome, which stimulated their emotions and suddenly cleared their tired and confused minds.

The top director of the FACA General Administration, the chief of the Operations Department, the director of the Research Department, the director of the Operations Department... a large number of elites came in groups, and the man in the lead just nodded slightly, even if it was to greet everyone. Wang Feng, the director of the Research Department, led his team to the side, and the people from the Meteorological Bureau consciously made way for the position closest to the central screen. The members of the Research Department opened the portable equipment box and assembled the computer immediately.

The originally depressing command hall became much more relaxed. The top leaders from the Third District Headquarters came to the hub city in person, and everyone's status was higher than Todd's.

Most people stared at this scene in amazement, and then they cheered and shouted. The hall, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, was noisy and noisy. Soon, the voices gradually became uniform, and everyone shouted in unison:

"Director An!"

"Mr. An Ran! I actually have the chance to meet you again!" Todd bowed deeply.

"Who are you?" An Ran had no impression of the man in front of her. She was confused by the word "again" and did not remember that they had met before.

"I'm Pearson Todd, the chief secretary of the Second District Administrative Palace. I'm the eldest son of the Pearson family and a friend of the An family." Todd answered cautiously, thinking to himself, Director, although your memory has deteriorated, you look much better. You're no longer like a ghost, but your temperament is a little weak.

"Two years ago, I had the honor to attend classes at Atlanta College. Your mentor at that time was you, the director!"

"Oh, my student." An Ran nodded calmly, thinking that he had some impression of him.

Sister Tang behind him looked at him strangely, "Oh, you big head ghost, this man is obviously older than your father. It sounds like he made up things just for courtesy, and you actually believed it."

Chapter 586: The End of Deagus (VI)

After watching Secretary Todd's tears, An Ran walked towards the central screen and accidentally caught a glimpse of a bald man with a big beard, a bit like Santa Claus without hair. He looked at her excitedly, shyly standing in an awkward position, looking like an innocent boy, which was very intriguing.

"What is this?"

An Ran had some impression.

"Are you Senior Bruno Bert?"

"It's me, it's me! I didn't expect that Director An still remembered me!" The man named Bruno was extremely excited and held An Ran's hand tightly.

"How could I not remember you, Senior Bruno? I remember when you graduated you were still..."

An Ran frowned and looked at the man up and down. He was still the fat round-faced man he remembered, but he looked much older. Bruno was only two years older than him and was also the champion of the intelligence attack department. The reason why he was so impressed was that he had publicly expressed his love for the vice-president and proposed to the vice-president at the graduation ceremony. At that time, the vice-president of Atlanta College was an old woman who was almost 50 years old.

After that day, Atlanta College no longer had a vice-president.

Bruno has changed a lot now, and looks more than twenty years older. Perhaps he wanted to prove to the vice president that he only took five years to become the head of the intelligence department of the second district branch.

However, in order to unify the positions with the headquarters, the Intelligence Department and the Operations Department are both referred to as "Sections", so Bruno is the head of the Intelligence Section.

"What's the situation now?" General MacArthur walked over to An Ran and looked at the complex and dense data on the screen with a worried look on his face.

He actually couldn't understand the data at all. Everyone present except him looked like a technical member, but his prestige still made government officials respect him.

"The situation is not optimistic. Seven coastal cities are about to be submerged. The monster hidden in the Pacific Ocean stopped an hour ago. According to the original route, its final destination is the entire America." Nolu said.

"But it has stopped now." McArthur suddenly had a good idea, "I think I can try to send a nuclear submarine. Maybe this is a chance to kill it."

"I've always admired your courage as a soldier, but sometimes you should listen more to the opinions of experts." Todd said with a hint of disdain.

"The reason why Deagus is stagnant is probably to find the most suitable place to land. According to Zero's calculation, its landing will last for three full days. Wuyi VIIba (eight) Phosphorus Weeping and Sliding yi" A researcher said expressionlessly, "But this does not mean that the second area is safe. These disasters will continue to be magnified during its landing."

"It's such a headache. I thought it was good news since it wasn't coming for the second zone." MacArthur rubbed his temples, looked at the screen for a while, and then closed his eyes because he couldn't stand the stimulation of the fluorescent light.

"Actually, this is good news. As long as it doesn't make landfall, the only difficulty the second zone will face is the tsunami." Wang Feng drank Bordeaux in big gulps.

"As for those rebellious alien species, General, don't worry. With us here, they won't be able to do anything." He was confident.

"It is not too difficult to quell the alien riots. We just need to unify them and catch all the leaders in one fell swoop. The remaining desperate criminals will naturally become a mess." An Ran gestured to Zhou Bowen.

Zhou Bowen nodded, turned around and left immediately. A special car was prepared to go to the front line, and elite executives had been assembled long ago.

"We must allocate all available resources, General MacArthur," Nolu turned to the elderly man and said.

"We also need your army and police to cooperate with us to manage the transportation hub of the entire Second District under Zero's operation. We must improve efficiency as much as possible under such severe weather conditions. If necessary, we can also open the airport to allow the affected areas to reach the safe zone as quickly as possible."

This is a thrilling decision, bold and full of risks, but for those coastal cities affected by the disaster, people will certainly be grateful to it because it allows them to leave the cities that have become doomsday.

"Am I crazy?" Sister Tang was very opposed to this decision.

"The conditions are worse than we thought. Let's not talk about whether we can take off successfully. The probability of crashing in the air has increased many times. Even we dare to fly as low as possible in a helicopter, just to make it easier to jump out of the plane in case of an accident!"

"This is also the worst option, but at least it can get people out of the disaster as quickly as possible."

"Zero, predict the most extreme situation of aircraft crash now." An Ran asked artificial intelligence to list the most intuitive data.

Zero's mechanical voice came from the radio: "15% mortality rate."

"15 points!" Sister Tang exclaimed.

"Oh my god, if that's true, then 500 out of 75 flights would crash, which is more than the total number of aircraft crashes in history!"

"We should think about it the other way around. This means that people on 425 flights can survive safely." Todd said this with some understatement, and obviously he also agreed with launching the airport flights.

When Sister Tang was about to refute, An Ran stopped her and said calmly, "Secretary Todd, you still need to issue a notice to open the airport immediately."

General MacArthur hurried over to stop him, his gray eyes rolling.

"Director An, maybe we shouldn't be so anxious. Those cities are still too high for a tsunami to submerge in a short period of time. In fact, the people have plenty of time to escape. There is no need to create adverse risks. This unprecedented flood is terrible. As long as we maintain smooth traffic..."

"It's too late." An Ran looked a little unhappy and stared at the data on the big screen for a long time.

Everyone was puzzled as this top director had been staring at the screen since he entered the command hall.

Nuolu and Sister Tang's faces also changed. Finally, they saw a series of jumping numbers on the screen. The red numbers jumped from 3000 to 10000.
