Chapter 1405: Empty Appeal, Standing at the Highest Point of Morality

Chapter 1405: Empty Appeal, Standing at the Highest Point of Morality
“I urge all countries in the world to put aside their prejudices and differences, put the overall interests of mankind first, and jointly welcome the arrival of Atlantis civilization.”

“I believe that only when humanity unites can we establish true trust and friendship with this unknown civilization and jointly create a brand new era.”

"In this era, humans will no longer be alone, but will have a powerful partner to jointly protect this beautiful planet and allow the flower of life to bloom more brilliantly here."

Looking at the passionate appearance of the reporter in the video, he seemed to regard himself as a hero of mankind, holding high the banner of unity and peace, calling on the world to put aside prejudices and differences and jointly welcome the arrival of Atlantis civilization.

The people from various countries in front of the screen showed disdainful expressions on their faces.

lighthouse.

"This kind of empty appeal has not been seen for a long time since the resurgence of spiritual energy. It not only ignores the intricate conflicts of interest in the real world, but also stands on the moral high ground, trying to cover up the actual differences and conflicts with a grand narrative."

"I didn't expect that even such a person could survive until now."

"Join the Atlantis civilization? Enjoy the protection of the Atlantis civilization?"

"Let's not talk about whether the Atlantis civilization is real or not. What's the difference between this and submitting to the Atlantis civilization?"

"Shelter? Haha."

Thor sneered. He had no idea how many news stories like this he read every day before the revival of spiritual energy. He just didn't expect that after the revival of spiritual energy, there would still be such reporters alive.

Holding high the banner of unity and peace, they call on the world to put aside prejudices and differences; standing on the moral high ground, they regard themselves as heroes of human civilization, as if fighting for the liberation of all mankind.

If you don’t know him, you might think he is really doing something great, but it turns out he is just being a traitor.

"It's easy to say, but putting aside differences? This can't be achieved with just a few nice words."

"Not to mention that there are no more differences between human countries nowadays. They can't even take care of their own countries, so how can they have time to care about the chaos in other countries?"

The third spiritual energy tide had just passed not long ago, and human countries were attacked by beast tides almost every day. Except for a very few countries that used absolute force to suppress the beast tides and resolved all the beast tides as soon as they occurred, most countries were stuck in a stalemate with the mutated beast tides.

Differences? What differences do they have now? If they do have any, they are internal differences. What does it have to do with other countries?
Thor's eyes were full of disdain. He continued, "This kind of guy obviously received benefits from the so-called Atlantis civilization and acted like a dog for them, so he is here trying his best to promote the benefits of joining the Atlantis civilization."

"He thought he was standing on the moral high ground, but in fact he was just a despicable traitor who was willing to sell out the dignity and future of all mankind for his own personal gain."

"It's ridiculous to talk about welcoming the arrival of Atlantis civilization and creating a new era together. Doesn't he understand that if a civilization is really strong enough to protect us, why do they need our 'welcome'? And why would they be so generous to 'create an era' with us?"

"His words may be attractive to the people who are struggling under the tide of spiritual energy and cannot bear the invasion of mutant creatures. Because they have no choice but to believe. They long for peace, but their country is unable to give it."

"However, this does not mean that they will easily believe such empty appeals, nor does it mean that they will abandon their country and nation and seek refuge in an unknown civilization."

"In the final analysis, this kind of person is just taking advantage of people's desires and fears for his own selfish interests. No matter how passionate his words are, they cannot cover up his inner meanness and cowardice."

"The real heroes are those who fight mutant beasts on the battlefield and defend their homes, not these hypocrites who stand in front of the screen and talk about unity and peace."

Island country.

Luoshui Sanxian stands on the ruins outside the newly built base, surrounded by broken buildings. The sea breeze blows with a salty and humid breath, as if telling the glory of the past and the desolation of today.

He stared into the distance, hearing the impassioned words of the reporter on the screen that he had seen before, but Luoshui Sanxian's eyes remained calm, with a hint of indifference, as if the passionate words were just a gust of wind in the distance, blowing gently but failing to stir up the slightest ripple in his heart.

"Atlantis civilization? Asylum?"

A hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Luoshui Sanxian's mouth.

"Didn't we also enjoy so-called protection in the past?"

"But when disaster strikes, where are they?"

"So-called asylum is nothing but a fantasy of those who are unable to protect themselves."

He turned around, looked across the devastated land, closed his eyes slightly, and let out a breath.

"When the country is destroyed, when the homeland is reduced to ruins, in the face of such reality, any external 'shelter' seems so pale and powerless."

“True peace and security never rely on charity from others, but can only be achieved and rebuilt through our own efforts.”

In this era full of uncertainties, any external "shelter" may be accompanied by unknown risks and costs. Only relying on one's own strength is the absolute truth in any era.

He didn't know whether the Atlantis civilization that the reporter talked about was real, nor did he know whether he was controlled by the Atlantis civilization and became the spokesperson of the Atlantis civilization in human civilization;
But if the Atlantis civilization really exists and really chooses him as its spokesperson, then the so-called Atlantis civilization will never be as powerful as he said, and will not be able to provide human civilization with protection from harm from the invasion of mutant creatures.

If they really possessed such power, neither humans nor mutant creatures on land would pose a threat to them. They could just go to land and unify everything, instead of choosing a human as their spokesperson and using human means to attract the hearts of the people.

Shaking his head slightly, Luoshui Sanxian stopped thinking about it. Whether the Atlantis civilization really existed or not, it was meaningless to the island country today.

During the period after the destruction, their development was quite good. Not only did they successfully rebuild a base that could accommodate all the survivors, they also miraculously restored the level of modern industrialization.

The instruments and equipment found in the ruins were repaired and put back into use; as for those that could not be found, the survivors used their craftsmanship to create crude but functional substitutes.

The group composition of the survivors also provides strong support for their development, as most of them are carefully selected elites and people with powerful talents.

This composition made their early recovery speed very fast. The former superiors finally demonstrated their leadership skills in the current environment. They not only helped stabilize the order in the base, but also did their best to promote the development of various undertakings.

But despite this, the population problem remains an insurmountable problem.

The number of survivors is already very small, and the cultivation of emotions requires time. Even pregnancy and childbirth require a long wait of ten months, and the subsequent growth and education require more than ten years of hard work.

Even if we work tirelessly for more than a decade, how many new lives can we add to the island nation? Thousands, or tens of thousands? Compared with the huge demand, this is just a drop in the bucket and will not help.

Future? Do they really have a future?

Luoshui Sanxian couldn't help but smile bitterly, recalling his former high-spiritedness and determination to change the country. But now, the despair in his heart was gradually eroding his hope.

He is one of the three gods of this country, a spiritual god trusted by the survivors, and a leader that Ming and Ling have high hopes for, believing that he can lead them back to the past.

If even he no longer has hope, then who can replace him and lead these survivors to move on?
At the same time, people in China also paid attention to the information about the newly emerged Atlantis civilization. However, unlike other countries that had no knowledge of the newly emerged Atlantis civilization, China had a deep understanding of this so-called Atlantis civilization because it had experienced the Battle of Haicheng.

This so-called Atlantis civilization is nothing more than a group of mutated sea beasts. Although it may have some connection with the Atlantis civilization in their mythology, it does not mean that they possess the power to surpass human civilization.

"Give asylum to humans who join the Atlantis civilization?"

"Let's put aside our prejudices and differences, put the overall interests of mankind first, and jointly welcome the arrival of Atlantis civilization?"

"This tastes right. This tastes so right. Are you sure it's not some famous foreign banana we used to have?"

When these remarks were circulated on the Internet, one netizen ridiculed them with great interest.

What he called "foreign bananas" refers to a bunch of false stories made up by those pro-Western people in the past when China was still developing, because they did not understand foreign countries, and used them to praise the qualities of foreigners.

For example, they once claimed that the water in foreign toilets is drinkable, that foreign craftsmanship is unparalleled, and so on. Many people believed it at the time and thought that foreign countries were really as good as they said.

However, with the development of China and the popularization of the Internet, people gradually understand the real situation abroad, which is far from as good as they had imagined before. As a result, fewer and fewer people believe these false statements, and more and more people mock and expose the truth.

Until the revival of spiritual energy, although there were still people advocating foreign cultures on the Internet, most people did not care and even watched them as a form of entertainment.

I didn’t expect that after the revival of spiritual energy, such remarks would appear again, and in the name of human beings, asking humans to join a civilization that is not dominated by humans.

It's really ironic that the trend of worshipping foreign things has spread from human countries to other civilizations.

"Foreign bananas? This one is a foreign banana now, but those in the past were all domestic bananas, although those bananas didn't consider themselves domestic, shrug.jpg"

Only foreigners can call them foreign bananas, but those in China in the past were all genuine domestic bananas, they just may not be willing to admit it.

"No one would believe this joke, right? No one really thinks that the Atlantis civilization would really protect humans who join them, right?"

"If they have this ability, why don't they just attack the land and unify the land and the sea?"

His words also represent the attitude of many people. If the so-called Atlantis civilization really has such powerful strength, why do they need humans to join them?

Why do they need to use words to deceive people? Wouldn't it be simpler and more direct to just show their strength and conquer the land?

Or are they an ocean civilization, so they can't come to the land from the ocean?

Not to mention that in the myths and legends recorded by humans, the Atlantis civilization was a land civilization before. The reason it became an ocean civilization was that Zeus, the chief of the gods, caused earthquakes and floods to punish people for their corruption, and the kingdom of Atlantis sank into the sea in one day and one night.

They themselves also claimed that the land had been the territory of their Atlantis civilization since ancient times.

It's impossible that they can't even set foot in their own territory?
If this is true, why are they talking about protecting humans?
The mutated sea beasts in the ocean are indeed a great threat to humans, but the greater threat is the group of mutated creatures on land.

The area of ​​the ocean is so much larger than that of the land. The deeper the place is, the more concentrated the spiritual energy is. The content of natural treasures is also more than that on land. So, are those mutated sea beasts bored enough to invade the land?

Those who are able to invade are basically those who cannot survive in the sea. If they do not go to land, they will be devoured by the powerful mutated sea beasts in the sea where they live, so they are forced to go to land.

Do you really think those mutant sea beasts are so rare on land?

Moreover, marine life is always marine life. They are not naturally suitable for survival on land. Only those extremely powerful mutated sea beasts that have entered the sequence, or those special amphibian mutated sea beasts can live on land without affecting themselves.

But how many of them are there? Compared with the mutant beasts, who are more numerous and who are stronger?
There is no need to consider this question at all, it is undoubtedly the latter!
If it is just to protect humans and they don't have to worry about the invasion of mutant creatures in the ocean, will it have a big impact on humans whether they join or not?
"Let's not talk about whether what the Atlantis civilization said is true or not. Even if it is true, based on the incident in Haicheng, we are already mortal enemies with them."

"Shelter? Who cares about the shelter of these marine beasts?"

"Sooner or later, we will use their destruction to commemorate the dead souls of Haicheng!!!"
