That's right, Su Yan was going to bring out something new this time to really open the eyes of the multinational alliance!
They weren't afraid of Iron Man.
They weren't afraid of nanomechanical particles.
So, he would bring out something that would make them truly afraid!
Vibranium was the best choice!
"I hope they can still be a bit tougher then, and not chicken out so easily!"
Su Yan's lips curled into a smile, seemingly eager to see the scene that would unfold a month later.
...
United States, White House Oval Office.
"Mr. President."
President Hill had just hung up the phone with China's supreme leader. The high-ranking officials in the office all looked at him with serious expressions, waiting for the answer to be revealed.
"Xu Na just called me. His meaning is clear. Due to disagreements between the supreme leaders, a little time is needed as a buffer. At the same time, they also need to communicate with China's scientific research team and consult with the technology owner."
President Hill said.
"Then there's no need to wait. China is clearly trying to stall for time and doesn't want to share the technology. If that's the case, let's just act directly!"
A high-ranking official said directly.
"No, they gave a clear timeline!"
President Hill's eyes flickered. "A month from now, China will hold an international press conference facing media worldwide. At this press conference, they will announce the final decision!"
"International press conference?"
"What are those seven people thinking? Do they want to blow things up?"
"Are they planning to publicly denounce us to the whole world?"
"Such foolish actions shouldn't be the style of the Chinese... Don't forget, the Chinese are all extremely cunning! Even more cunning than foxes!"
...
The group of high-ranking officials was perplexed by China's move to hold an international press conference, not understanding its intention.
"No matter what they're thinking!"
"Since they want a month, we'll give them a month!"
President Hill's eyes narrowed. "Anyway, if they don't hand over the technology after a month, there's no need to wait any longer. We'll directly begin comprehensive sanctions against China!"
It wasn't just President Hill who received this news.
The Prime Minister of Japan, the President of France, the Chancellor of the Unknown Country... all agreed to China's proposal, deciding to wait patiently for a month.
After all, this matter concerned national economic development. While sanctioning China, their own countries would also be affected... If they could use a month to completely eliminate these effects and still successfully obtain the two shared technologies, why not?
...
The day after China's supreme leader and Su Yan reached an agreement, the national channels were completely opened!
Many high-risk contraband items that Su Yan originally couldn't purchase through national channels were now openly transported into China via national channels... The efficiency was more than just a little bit faster!
Especially those radioactive items, which are absolutely forbidden internationally. Even black market merchants had to be extremely careful and go through great lengths to transport them into China... But with national assistance, these items could be easily delivered to Su Yan's home!
After witnessing such high efficiency, Su Yan began to vigorously and comprehensively acquire all the materials needed for the X-Healing Factor and Vibranium!
At the same time, an unprecedented storm swept through all major military regions across China!
"Selecting five of the most top-tier soldiers from across the country?"
"My heavens... picking five out of a million, what is the country planning to do?"
"Do you even need to ask! It must be for some incredibly important matter!"
"It's said that if you're selected, welfare benefits and official positions are all inclusive, you'll immediately soar to success!"
"Hey, hey, hey! I heard even we ordinary soldiers are eligible!"
"Don't fantasize! How could such good things ever be our turn? Dragon Tooth, Flying Eagle, Wolf Blood... those elites among elites are more like it! Our eligibility is purely just the country looking after the feelings of us ordinary soldiers!"
"And even for special forces teams, the competition is probably fierce now! Only five spots, picking five from so many elites, they must be kings among kings!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... incredible! I really wonder which five will be chosen in the end!"
"..."
Across military regions nationwide, the announcement regarding the selection of five elite soldiers had been posted.
All the soldiers were aware of the news, and many were eager to try!
Even members of the special forces teams, known as the elites among elites, couldn't help but be surprised when they heard the news.
"Sixth Brother, is this news true? Picking five people from so many, what kind of secret mission is this for?" If it were a secret mission, it wouldn't be such a large-scale public selection... but the mission's intensity certainly wouldn't be small!
"Look at you all, all you do is wipe and practice shooting, you don't care about important news at all... I can tell you, now Ruthless Blood and King Kong are already going crazy. As soon as the news came out, they started live exercises that very day!"
"Why? Isn't it just a mission? Let them go if they want to, I'd rather do a secret mission involving the Three Assassins!"
"You didn't know? It's said that as long as you're selected and make it onto the list of five people, from that moment on, your military rank will directly surpass that of a squad leader!"
"Holy cow! You're not kidding, are you? You get promoted without even doing the mission?"
"More than that! I can tell you, I heard from unofficial sources that this time the national rewards are unprecedentedly generous! Not only military rank,
but also many other additional rewards, and even family members will receive extremely generous extra guarantees! So many people who previously weren't willing to participate, who had no interest in fame and fortune, all signed up!"
"Oh my goodness, no way! I have to sign up too! I don't care about military rank or treatment, but if it can provide national protection for my family, then I absolutely must sign up!"
"Let's go, let's go! Let's all go together! If we all get selected, this will be because our squad fought to the death!"
"Exactly! We'll also use this opportunity to properly distinguish ourselves from Flying Eagle and King Kong!"
"..."
For these special forces elites, perhaps fame and fortune weren't the top priority... but if they could guarantee the safety of their families or loved ones, they would fight to the death!
Of course, that was just one aspect.
More often, at their level, no one yielded to anyone else. If others signed up, how could they be cowards?
They had to fight to the bitter end!
