Chapter 172: Anger
The AI had incredible computing power. Once it was upgraded, it could calculate things that human scientists couldn’t dream of.
After that, the Atlantians could build the weapon of the sixth age.
Therefore, the wishing power was essential to them.
...
Himmel Soan rubbed the energy ball in his hand and looked out of the window. He could sense thousands of points of wishing power flying toward the center of the ocean.
The triangular area!
Something must be hidden underneath to make that area so mysterious. The fact that the wishing power was flying in that direction only confirmed his speculation.
He recalled the woman he had seen earlier. She could travel through a tornado and dived into the ocean after she saw Himmel Soan.
Himmel Soan knew things were more complicated than they seemed on the surface. Those people that had been asking everybody to kneel in front of the ocean must have a hidden agenda.
They were connected to the appearance of the wishing power.
Could it have something to do with the triangular area as well?
If Himmel Soan hadn’t been creating the energy ball, he would have used all his mental force to stop the wishing power.
But he couldn’t do that now. The “ball” was going to be the new moon. It was quickly absorbing his spiritual essence. If he activated his mental force now, the ball would suck him dry.
Those people had chosen the perfect time. Did they choose this moment to incite the ordinary people because they knew Himmel Soan couldn’t activate his mental force?
That wasn’t the case.
The Atlantians didn’t know what Himmel Soan was doing.
It was just a coincidence.
“Director Lang, General Marlow, you must stop those people from kneeling in front of the ocean! Stop them at all costs!”
Himmel Soan sent the message to Henry Lang. However, it confused Henry and Gordon. They were already puzzled when they were ordered to stop those vloggers.
But Himmel Soan didn’t mention “at all costs” back then. It sounded like he had asked them to get physical.
It was such a petty thing.
Was it worth it?
The other countries already had many opinions about Moon. Resorting to violence would only worsen things. The entire world might hate Moon for it.
“Mr. Soan, should we think about it? Isn’t it a bit…”
“We don’t have time for that! What they’re doing will get them killed! If you don’t want to see that happen, do as you’re told to!”
“Get them killed? Seriously? They’re only kneeling on the ground…”
“You don’t know anything! Just follow my orders!”
The president joined the conversation and heard what they said.
“Director Lang, just carry out the order.”
“But Mr. President, wouldn’t that…”
“Just do it. Mr. Soan won’t harm them. If he wanted to, he wouldn’t have saved the world.”
Yosef, Warren, and Drake also joined the conversation.
“Our Patriarch is always right. Trust him, and you’ll see in the end.”
“That’s right. Please listen to our Patriarch.”
“Alright.”
Henry then went to make the announcement while Gordon informed the heads of state.
“Hello, Mr. President, I’m Gordon Marlow. You should forbid your people from stepping out of your arks!”
“Hello, Mr. President, I’m Gordon Marlow. On behalf of Moon, I’m requesting…”
“Mr. President, I’m Gordon. Mr. Soan has asked everybody to stay in the underground shelters. This is very serious. You’ll see why in about ten minutes. Please tell your fellow Pantherese to follow this instruction and don’t panic. Everything will be alright.”
“Hello, Mr. President, I’m Gordon Marlow. I’m requesting…”
...
On behalf of Moon, Gordon sent a message to all other presidents and held an international conference.
Henry also made an announcement that forbade anyone from kneeling at the ocean. He also announced that Moon would resort to tough measures if necessary.
As expected, the requirement caused outrage online.
“I knew it! Moon isn’t any better than the other countries!”
“They were trying to control our thoughts a minute ago, and they’re already telling us what to do! I wasn’t going to go out, but now that they’ve forbidden us to do it, I’m going to kneel in the ocean! It can’t kill me!”
“Do you want to kill us? Be my guest! You’ve saved my life, so feel free to take it back! I’m grateful for your help, but I won’t let you tell me what to do!”
“I have my rights! Moon has no place to tell us what to do! We didn’t do anything wrong! You’ve crossed the line!”
“That’s right! Even Neige has never given us such orders! Who the hell do you think you are? I’m going, and you can’t stop me!”
...
As expected, the announcement backfired. Some people had been hesitating, but they ran to the sea after Moon made the announcement.
Only two websites were still running, and the conversations between Gordon and the presidents were broadcasted online to everybody.
No one liked to hear Gordon threatening their presidents.
“We’re not afraid of any country! You can’t threaten us!”
“You can’t threaten us either! You can kill us or enslave us, but you can’t control our thoughts! We Iceanians aren’t afraid of death! We won’t yield!”
“You’re more outrageous than Neige! I’d rather be ruled by Neigerians than by you! At least we’ll be free!”
“You’ve finally revealed your true colors. I thought you were the kindest people in the world. By the look of it, that was only a facade! You’ve been planning for this all along! It disgusts me!”
Not everybody was cursing Moon. Some people were trying to defend the country.
“You people are idiots! How many times are you going to fall into traps! Have you forgotten what you said when the space cannon was created? What happened later? You all begged Moon to help you! Do you know how much they have lost just to save you people? Do you know how many soldiers died? You don’t! All you care about is yourself! You don’t deserve to be saved!”
“I don’t care what you say. The Padaskians will always support Moon’s decision!”
