Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Chapter 415 Set off a big firework

“Since 1967, the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom have joined the Outer Space Treaty. We have cooperated and agreed to develop, explore and use outer space for peaceful purposes. Each party to the Treaty has pledged not to place anything carrying nuclear weapons or weapons in orbit around the earth. Entities with any other type of weapons of mass destruction do not deploy such weapons on celestial bodies, nor deploy such weapons in outer space in any other manner.

The High Contracting Parties must use the moon and other celestial bodies exclusively for peaceful purposes. It is prohibited to establish military bases, facilities and fortifications on celestial bodies: It is prohibited to test any type of weapons and conduct military exercises on celestial bodies. "

"But now, we regret to find that the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom have repeatedly violated the treaty. Last year, the Soviet Union released nuclear bombs in low-Earth orbit, destroying satellites of many countries, and electromagnetic pulses affected many cities in Europe. Since then, , the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom even carried weapons of mass destruction on orbiting satellites and repeatedly conducted strike experiments on the high seas and other areas, threatening global security."

"Here, we urge the Soviet Union to immediately correct its mistakes, destroy the lethal weapons on orbiting satellites, and stop launching satellites into outer space before going through review. Otherwise, we will impose further sanctions on the Soviet Union."

"Bah." Patrick turned off the TV, "William has become very tough recently, but this is not surprising. Polls show that half of his supporters are now believers. They are very angry with you for promoting atheism in the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom. anger."

"What are you going to do?" Patrick asked.

"Don't worry about it for now." Murphy said.

Anyway, the sanctions have been in progress for a long time. Britain and the Soviet Union have basically broken with the Western camp. However, with business contacts with a certain Eastern country, the two countries have not suffered much losses. Instead, they have taken this opportunity to vigorously develop their own countries. manufacturing.

"Compared to this, another thing is more important." Murphy said, "It's time to prepare for battle."

Patrick frowned, "Is it time yet?"

Murphy nodded and glanced at Lucas next to him.

The latter handed Patrick a chart, "The previous exposure incident has once again increased the rate of increase in magic concentration by an order of magnitude. According to calculations, at most two to three months, the level of magic concentration will be enough to support a 'god' like Tire." If it exists, its magic power loss and recovery ability will reach a balance. In other words, after three months, the earth's environment will be enough for the gods to survive."

"Therefore," Murphy took over the topic, "we must prepare for battle before then. After all, the countermeasures bureau is only for ordinary magic disasters and is not enough to deal with god-level disasters. We should start mobilizing the army, at least We need to let the soldiers understand what we are dealing with and why we are dealing with them."

Patrick looked embarrassed, "The previous exposure incident has made the existence of magic known to most people, so it saves the trouble of explaining it from the beginning. But the problem here is that if people know that what we are dealing with is a 'god' ', we could become very passive."

"Those ancient gods are okay. No one believes in them anymore. But those gods who still have a large number of believers, will they also return?"

Murphy nodded, "Give up your fantasy. There is no reason to prove that 'God' won't appear."

Patrick frowned, "To be honest, I was once a believer. Although my faith was not very devout, I have seen those devout believers and know how much influence His existence has on believers. "

"I even suspect that as long as He really reveals His existence, most of our soldiers will immediately defect on the battlefield!"

Lucas frowned in confusion, "Even if that god wants to enslave them?"

Patrick sighed, "You wizards are atheists, so you may not understand that emotion."

"Most children who grew up under the influence of Christianity, Catholicism and other religious groups have lived in a world ruled by 'God' since they were young. Even if their parents are not devout believers, usually they are in such an environment. It will not prevent children from being exposed to faith.”

"They, we, all grew up in God's 'love', and we can always be exposed to the idea that all the good things we have are given by 'God'. He not only gave us life, but also gave us Give this life meaning."

"Before the church completely abandoned rationalism, it spent more than a thousand years perfecting its teachings. During these more than a thousand years, countless of the smartest brains in the world worked to better explain and promote it. If you study theology throughout your life, you will find that it actually contains the essence of almost all philosophical speculations from ancient times to the present."

"Perhaps, it is difficult to figure out the truth of the world, but if you want to seek solace and convert to faith, it is the easiest way."

"Being enslaved by humans is unbearable, but being enslaved by gods and God is a natural honor in the hearts of believers."

Murphy's expression also became heavy. He knew that what Patrick said was right. For most people in the world, especially most people in the Western world, belief in God is almost a kind of basic common sense. , although few people in modern society no longer preach doctrines, they have been immersed in such a faith-filled environment since childhood.

This seed of faith is like a seed in the soul. It cannot be removed without ten or even decades of ideological transformation.

"Then we can't wait passively." Murphy suddenly said, "Originally I was a little hesitant about that plan, but now it seems that maybe it's not a bad idea to take some risks."

"what you up to?"

"Pre-emptive strike." Murphy said.

"You mean..." Patrick understood, "But weren't you worried that this would cause the gods to break free earlier?"

"Even if we do nothing, it won't be long before the gods are completely out of trouble." Lucas explained for Murphy, "We have been continuously tracking the magic signals on the back of the moon. We found that whatever trapped the gods was What it is, it is losing power. Every full moon, its ability to restrain the gods drops to the lowest point. Usually at this time, some severe magical disasters will occur on the earth."

"Almost all magic disasters that are close to the level of gods appear at this time."

"Based on the current fluctuations, after a while, its ability to restrain the gods may not be enough to stop them. The three months I mentioned before are also based on this judgment."

"And once the gods are out of trouble, we may face a situation where flowers bloom everywhere," Murphy said. "Before that, we must give them a hard blow and set off big fireworks for them!"

Patrick pondered for a while and said: "If the Traceless Stretch Curse is used to load nuclear bombs, it shouldn't be a big problem if a Saturn V-level rocket is loaded with seven or eight Big Ivans. The power should be enough, but the distance between the earth and the moon is too far. Well, you just launched it here, and it may have been discovered over there, so how can you ensure that it won’t be shot down?”

"Laser-type things that previous landers encountered were very troublesome. The moon's surface is close to a vacuum. If it doesn't explode at a very close range, the destructive power may be limited."

Patrick had also read Murphy's previous records related to the moon landings and knew what they had encountered.

"So I plan to add magic to chemical energy propulsion. Use the magic stone and magic metal to make a phantom transformation device, so that it can make long-distance space jumps." Murphy said.

"As for avoiding attacks, we now have magic chips and portrait AI that can perform some intelligent responses."

The distance between the earth and the moon is still too far. Even light takes 1.28 seconds to travel. Therefore, even if the reaction time is not included, when the aircraft arrives near the moon, it will transmit the signal back to the earth and then send the control signal back. For aircraft, it takes at least 2.56 seconds.

Such a huge delay is simply not enough for remote and precise control. The only way to avoid attacks is to rely on the rocket's AI.

"Or..." But at this moment, Lucas spoke again, "Let me control the rocket."
