Chapter 580 Whale Island

"The federal government has been established for more than a year. Although the political system is relatively stable, it does not have high prestige. Launching a war against alien beasts can effectively improve the prestige of the federal government. We can take advantage of this opportunity to recover Those "real objects" that scientists need are killing two birds with one stone, so why not?"

At the conference table, the opinions of the soldiers were almost unanimous. They were all confident in recovering the "physical objects" needed by the scientists.

Since the establishment of the federal government, through the integration of the militaries of various countries, although the military has had great power, it has been unable to do anything.

After more than a year of silence, it is time to make some noise and let the world know that only under the leadership of the federal government can the future of mankind have hope.

Whether or not to send troops has nothing to do with Sender.

As a bystander, Sende hesitated to speak, but seeing that no one from the military headquarters objected, he hesitated again.

It would be best if we could bring back "physical objects". If it fails, it will be a costly failure, which will undoubtedly be detrimental to the stability of the federal government.

When everyone looked at Tres, Tres knew that he had to tell everyone his decision.

what to do?

The expression on his face was solemn, and Tres was lost in thought.

"Secretary-General, if no alien civilization appears, we may have enough time to develop, but if alien civilization appears, we may not know when it will appear again. Right now, we are like babies in the cradle. As long as the alien civilization has If we have a little evil thought, the new humanity will have no future, and even if we live, we will be enslaved. But we still have hope, even if the whole hope is slim, it is worth fighting for. "

Give it your all?

As soon as these words came out, Tres suddenly realized, yes, it is not the time to be cautious now, it must be radical. Only a radical federal government can lead the new humanity towards a better future.

Even if this step is wrong, the federal government still has room for recovery, and there is still hope for everything. But if it is the right step, the benefits are self-evident.

As the Secretary-General and the head of the federal government, what else can he hesitate?

His face darkened, Tres said in a deep voice: "You are right. At this time, the federal government must be radical and immediately assemble the army. The military department is responsible for all matters. I will immediately convene a parliament. Once the military decree is passed, the army will immediately mobilize. , Expedition to the North."

"yes!"

All the officers stood up and shouted in unison with military salutes.

The Secretary-General is the head of the federal government and has great powers, but his powers are not unlimited.

A delicate balance is maintained between the Secretary-General, who holds the power, and the House of Representatives, who controls the "money."

The members of the House of Representatives are all heads of the member states of the federal government, and the secretary-general also serves as the speaker of the parliament.

In the House of Representatives, the Speaker has no power but is responsible for the proceedings and the agenda.

The House of Representatives can also be regarded as a tax department. The federal government's funds come from the House of Representatives and are paid by member states according to a certain proportion of their respective GDPs.

The proportion of money turned over is decided by the House of Representatives. It can be more than the basic proportion, but it cannot be less.

A large-scale military operation like this one must seek the consent of the House of Representatives. As long as the House of Representatives agrees, the federal government will not only be able to obtain a large sum of money for the war, but even if the war fails, the consequences will be borne by all countries, and the impact on the federal government will be reduced. to the lowest.

New World, Whale Island, Whale Town.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun high in the sky had already turned westward. Under the scorching sun, a passenger ship docked at the dock of Whale Town.

Passenger ships not only carried passengers, but also cargo. Due to the arrival of passenger ships, some young people in the town found temporary jobs as laborers carrying the cargo on the ship.

For a time, the dock was full of people and lively.

In this lively atmosphere, two people walked out of the passenger ship and came to the pier.

Looking around and seeing the familiar scene outside the dock, User took a deep breath.

He turned around, smiled slightly, and said to the people around him: "Li Meng, how long has it been since we left Whale Town?"

The two of them did not stop, left the dock, and walked on the road in the town.

Looking around at the buildings on both sides of the road, Li Meng thought for a moment and said, "It's been more than three years."

Speaking of this, Li Meng stretched out his right hand, gestured, and said: "You were only a little tall at that time, but you have grown a lot taller now. You are taller than Aunt Emily."

Three years already?

Looking at the people around him, Yose had a stunned expression on his face.

Three years have passed, Li Meng is 15 years old, and he will turn 16 in a few months.

Time flies so fast. Before I knew it, it had been more than three years since I left Whale Island.

Yose has not forgotten the purpose of leaving Whale Island. He still remembers it, always remembers it, and he will never forget it.

As if aware of User's gaze, Li Meng looked back at User and said with a faint smile: "You haven't been back for three years, and now you are back. You should be happy. Why are you so worried?"

Unconsciously, three years have passed. User has grown up, and so has he.

From a distance, the two people walking on the street were just two little adults. They looked much bigger than when they left, a little less childish and a little more mature.

Li Meng was still wearing the white short-sleeved and black trousers, which looked more casual, while Yose was wearing a blue and white long coat, which was tightly wrapped.

The original silver hair was dyed golden, shoulder-length.

With a smile, Li Meng put his arm around Yusser's shoulders and said, "Don't forget the purpose of our return. Come back happily and leave happily. If you look worried, Aunt Emily will not be happy."

Is that so?

With a slight smile, Yusser nodded and said, "Yeah!"

Seeing that Yusser finally smiled, Li Meng let go of Yusser's shoulders, and the two walked quickly on the street.

"These two people look familiar, as if I have seen them somewhere..."

"Hey, do you have this feeling too? I have this feeling too. I always feel that I have seen them somewhere, but I can't remember."

"Oh, I remember it now. Have you forgotten? It's the shy kid from Emily's house, and the boy who spreads money."

In the town, Li Meng and Yusser were recognized by the townspeople. For a while, waves of exclamations greeted Li Meng's ears.

Facing the suspicious eyes on both sides of the street, Li Meng smiled faintly and said to Youse beside him: "Youse, look, they recognized us."

Youse rolled his eyes at Li Meng and said unhappily: "You spent so much money in the beginning, how could they forget you, the boy who gave money away?"

Facing Youse's rolling eyes, Li Meng shrugged and said: "I don't know who I spent the money for in the beginning."
