449: Finale 3

Jiang Chuan arrived at the safe house.

This Underground World was not built by human effort; after all, this Underground World was too vast, with entire cities hollowed out. Moreover, each city was like the surface, and each city possessed Controlled Nuclear Fusion, maintaining a continuous energy cycle, so even if humans lived here constantly, there would be no discomfort.

Jiang Chuan smoothly entered the Underground World through a dedicated passage. After arriving at the city in the Underground World, he saw the Chinese people living and working there without any discomfort, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Technology changes life; this saying is true.”

Looking at this scene, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but smile.

Over the years, Jiang Chuan had continuously enhanced China's technological strength by relying on the abilities he gained from the system, and all of this had fully materialized today.

Go.

After Jiang Chuan arrived in the Underground World, he did not linger but immediately went to the imperial capital.

“Dad, I’ve already arrived in the Underground World. I need you to contact the Grand Elder and the others to convene the Supreme Council.”

When Jiang Chuan quickly arrived in the imperial capital, he contacted Jiang Wenli and told him about this matter.

“Okay.”

Jiang Wenli knew that Jiang Chuan's arrival in the Underground World surely meant something important, so he agreed without hesitation.

After Jiang Wenli contacted the Grand Elder, the Grand Elder urgently convened the Supreme Council.

The elders, knowing that the Grand Elder was calling an emergency meeting, also understood the urgency of the situation. Everyone quickly arrived at the conference room, waiting for the meeting to begin.

“Little Jiang, why are you here?”

“Little Jiang, what’s the situation like outside?”

“Little Jiang, can we still return to the surface world?”

Before the meeting began, the elders saw Jiang Chuan's arrival and all asked him questions; they were still very concerned about matters on the surface.

Although the Underground World was no different from the surface world, the thought of living underground still made them a bit uncomfortable, and they naturally wanted to return to their homes.

“Elders, we temporarily cannot return to the surface world. The surface world is becoming increasingly dangerous. The Heavenly Lord Society has completely gone to war with the United States, and at the same time, the United States has also developed powerful war weapons. Even the Heavenly Lord Society was defeated by the United States. Of course, the Heavenly Lord Society was not destroyed; the United States merely gained the upper hand.”

Hearing the elders' words, Jiang Chuan also told them this fact.

The world on the surface was very dangerous. Without a certain ability to protect themselves, all of them would die up there; there was no way to return.

“What?”

“Has the surface world become so dangerous now?”

“Will the Heavenly Lord Society eventually use nuclear weapons to completely destroy our homes?”

At this moment, all the elders' expressions changed, and their gazes at Jiang Chuan were filled with worry.

They wanted to return to the surface world, naturally, to return to the safe world of the past. They could not and were unwilling to go to the current world full of crises, as a slight mistake could lead to eternal damnation.

“I have filmed some videos; you can watch them, and then we'll talk after you've finished.”

Jiang Chuan immediately projected all the filmed footage onto the screen, hoping the elders would watch the complete video.

“Okay.”

All the elders naturally agreed to Jiang Chuan's words, and then they watched the video Jiang Chuan had filmed.

“Is this real? There are actually such terrifying monsters that can destroy such a massive spaceship with a single blow!”

“Has our world become so terrifying now?”

“Is this the secret weapon developed by the United States? Who can destroy the monster in front of us without using nuclear weapons?”

“The Heavenly Lord Society's strength is also very frightening; they can actually control this group of Lizard Monsters.”

“Indeed, judging by this strength, our Chinese forces are temporarily at a disadvantage; otherwise, it would be difficult to contend with them.”

The elders watched the video Jiang Chuan had filmed, and everyone's expressions became solemn. They hadn't expected such enormous changes to occur in the surface world in such a short time, making it so dangerous.

“Hmm, so I came here to ask all the elders.”

“I currently have two proposals. The first proposal is that I can restore all monsters to human form. The second proposal is to use the entire nation's strength to build a spaceship, and all Chinese people can temporarily leave China and this planet by taking the spaceship.”

Jiang Chuan also nodded, then looked at everyone in front of him and slowly spoke these words.

Silence!

Upon hearing Jiang Chuan's suggestions, all the elders fell silent.

At this moment, the elders didn't know how to choose.

One choice was to save all of humanity, and the other was to leave the planet and go into space, which could preserve the spark of humanity.

Jiang Chuan looked at the silent elders and did not interrupt them.

It wasn't until ten minutes later that the Grand Elder slowly spoke.

“Little Jiang, can we not do both things?”

“We can, but there's a significant time difference. After completing the first task, we need to wait at least a month before we can do the other, and even building a spaceship will take a long time.”

“Of course, the most important thing is that I believe the Heavenly Lord Society will have other methods. If we don't quickly develop an antidote for the Lizard People, all the Lizard People might truly be unable to return to human form and instead become true monsters.”

Hearing the Grand Elder's words, Jiang Chuan also explained all of this, and at the same time, told the Grand Elder and the others that since the Lizard Monsters had not been around for long, they could still try to save them. However, if too much time passed, or if the Heavenly Lord Society used other methods, they would have no way to save these Lizard Monsters.

“We understand.”

Everyone understood Jiang Chuan's meaning: they could only choose one thing for now, and whether they could do the other later was still unknown. After all, the current surface world was too chaotic, and no one knew what would happen in the future.

“We choose to save humanity worldwide.”

The Grand Elders looked at each other, and then everyone made their choice together.

“Save humanity?”

Hearing the Grand Elders' words, Jiang Chuan looked at them in shock, not expecting them to make this choice.

“That's right, we humans are all a community of shared destiny. Although we come from different countries, although we come from different skin colors, we are all human beings.”

“If we, China, didn't have the ability to save them, perhaps we wouldn't save them. Since you've said this, it means we still have the ability to save them. Since we have the ability to save them, we still hope to save these humans.”

The Grand Elders quickly stated their views.

Everyone is human, everyone is a community of shared destiny living on this planet. Although they come from different countries and may have grudges against each other, in the face of a true crisis, if China can save other humans, it will still choose to save them.

This is the responsibility of a great nation that China has upheld for thousands of years.

“Okay, I understand. I will develop the antidote as soon as possible to save humanity worldwide, but there's another problem.”

“That is, after we save these humans, they will need a place to live, and this place needs to be safe enough. Currently, only the United States and China have such places, but the United States probably won't choose to accept them. We can only accept these humans.”

Jiang Chuan raised another problem: after saving these humans, they would have no way to survive in the current world unless they could find sanctuary.

“Can our resources accommodate these people?”

Hearing Jiang Chuan's words, the Grand Elders looked at him and asked.

“Yes, our Controlled Nuclear Fusion technology is completely mature. Even if we accept all humans worldwide, our total resources are enough for us to use for at least a hundred years.”

Hearing the Grand Elder's words, Jiang Chuan understood his meaning and immediately stated this.

“Alright then, we choose to accept these humans.”

The Elders finally made a decision, which was to accept all of humanity. As long as Huaguo's resources could be guaranteed, they would help other humans as much as possible.

"Alright, next we will help that country first. At the same time, when we help other countries, we must not attract the attention of other nations. Of course, the world has become chaotic now, so as long as our actions aren't too exaggerated, they won't notice what we are doing."

Jiang Chuan also agreed. Since the Elders had already made their decision, all they had to do next was execute it.

The Elder also understood what Jiang Chuan meant. Although they could help all of humanity, when the crisis arrived, there would still be closer relationships between certain parties.

"We will give you a list. You can save our friendly nations first."

The Elder understood Jiang Chuan's meaning and immediately spoke these words.

"Understood, Elder."

Jiang Chuan smiled and agreed after hearing the Elder's words.

For the next period of time, Jiang Chuan did his best to gain more gratitude value, and the country also helped Jiang Chuan continuously acquire gratitude value.

With the help of the entire nation, Jiang Chuan spent a week and finally obtained enough gratitude value.

Jiang Chuan directly exchanged the acquired gratitude value for medicine, hoping to help all of humanity return to their human forms.

"Jiang Chuan, war has broken out again between the Heavenly Lord Society and the US. The power displayed by the Heavenly Lord Society is no weaker than that of the US. Even the US's four war monsters were injured, though the Heavenly Lord Society also suffered some casualties."

Bai Mengxue had been paying close attention to the movements between the Heavenly Lord Society and the US. After she learned of this, she immediately thought of Jiang Chuan and proactively contacted him to tell him about it.

"Understood. My work is about to be finished."

"After I deal with these matters, I will return to the surface world as soon as possible. During this time, you must constantly monitor their situation and see how the world's dynamics will develop next."

After Jiang Chuan learned of this, his expression grew increasingly serious. He had not expected that the Heavenly Lord Society actually possessed the strength to counter the US's war monsters. It seemed the world would only become more terrifying.

"Understood. I know what you mean."

Bai Mengxue immediately agreed after hearing Jiang Chuan's words.

"Those damned guys! How could they possibly fight against our war monsters?"

"How much longer until our other war monsters can be awakened?"

Pu Chuan's expression also turned ugly. He had originally thought he could completely destroy the Heavenly Lord Society, but he hadn't expected the opponent's purple Lizard Monsters to be completely on par with Godzilla's strength. Furthermore, the opponent had two purple Lizard Monsters, which even allowed them to gain the upper hand. In the end, it was only by Pu Chuan frantically absorbing nuclear energy that he barely managed to repel the Heavenly Lord Society.

"Sir, our other monsters have not yet been successfully researched, so there is currently no way to awaken them."

"Our resources are currently limited. Unless we have enough resources, it will be very difficult for us to successfully research the other monsters in the shortest amount of time."

The US researchers smiled bitterly after hearing Pu Chuan's words. They also wanted to quickly develop the monsters, but they simply couldn't do it.

In order to develop the four monsters, they had already utilized most of the US's resources. If they wanted to accelerate the progress now, they could only acquire more resources.

"I see. Didn't Huaguo previously purchase most of the world's resources? If that's the case, then we will temporarily abandon attacking the Heavenly Lord Society and assault Huaguo first. Once we obtain Huaguo's resources, we will certainly be able to get more war monsters."

Pu Chuan's expression immediately turned cold upon hearing this, and he slowly spoke these words.

"Sir, that is possible, but the Heavenly Lord Society has always regarded us as their primary opponent. If we move our war monsters away, the Heavenly Lord Society might take the opportunity to attack the US, and then the US will be completely in danger."

The researchers heard Pu Chuan's words and reminded him of this matter. The Heavenly Lord Society was their biggest opponent. After all, the power the Heavenly Lord Society controlled was no weaker than that of the entire US. Once the US's war monsters were withdrawn, the US would become vulnerable.

"I understand what you mean. I won't use the war monsters."

Pu Chuan understood the researcher's meaning after being reminded. Their greatest enemy right now was not Huaguo, but the Heavenly Lord Society.

The conflict between them and the Heavenly Lord Society had reached an irreconcilable point.

Either the US would perish, or the Heavenly Lord Society would perish.

If they used the war monsters, the US would truly be vulnerable. If the Heavenly Lord Society launched an attack then, the US would truly be in danger, and the entire US would fall into absolute peril.

"Understood, Sir. As long as we don't use the war monsters, the US won't be in danger. Moreover, if we have enough resources, the time it takes for us to develop the monsters can be greatly shortened."

The researchers breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Pu Chuan's words and informed him that as long as the US had enough resources, they would definitely be able to develop more monsters, and eliminating the Heavenly Lord Society would then only be a matter of time.

"Good. I will order our soldiers to pilot our aircraft carriers to Huaguo. Huaguo is likely already on the brink of collapse now, so as long as our ships can successfully reach Huaguo, we should be able to easily bring back Huaguo's resources."

"However, if we want to go to Huaguo, we cannot let the Heavenly Lord Society know. If they find out, they will definitely try to stop us, so we need to proceed in secret."

Pu Chuan began to ponder. Their operation this time needed to be sufficiently covert; only then would they avoid harassment from the Heavenly Lord Society.

"Duke, come to my office immediately."

After Pu Chuan left the research lab, he immediately contacted the head of the intelligence agency, asking him to come to his office right away. They needed to discuss how to bypass the Heavenly Lord Society and rush to Huaguo to seize resources.

"Understood, Sir."

Duke now knew that the US possessed powerful war monsters, and these war monsters could ensure the US remained undefeated. He had no way to express his respect for Pu Chuan, but he became increasingly obedient to him.

"Sir, may I ask what you need me for?"

Duke arrived at Pu Chuan's office, looked respectfully at Pu Chuan, and spoke these words.

"You should know that Huaguo possesses many resources. The US is currently lacking some resources, and I need you to find a way to lead our troops to Huaguo and bring back these resources. Furthermore, the personnel we send out must not be discovered by the Heavenly Lord Society. If they are discovered, the Heavenly Lord Society will try to harass us."

"Therefore, I need you to find a way for our personnel to successfully enter Huaguo's territory, seize their resources from within Huaguo, and supplement our domestic supply. Only in this way can we obtain more war monsters, and once we have more war monsters, we can easily destroy the Heavenly Lord Society."

Pu Chuan looked at the arriving Duke and slowly spoke these words, which was to have Duke find a way to quickly obtain resources from within Huaguo's territory.

"Understood, Sir."

"We actually don't need to mobilize domestic forces. We only need to use the troops stationed in South Korea. The entire world has changed now, and Huaguo should be the same, so using the troops stationed in South Korea will be enough to easily obtain the resources we want from within Huaguo's territory."
