Chapter 347: Chapter 222: Jerusalem, Strict Code in Chaotic Times._2
The speech by this military representative echoed emphatically throughout the entire conference hall!
His words also caused many elites and influential figures, who were still silent, to feel as if thunder struck their ears!
For a moment, after experiencing brief indecision, the majority ultimately applauded the speech by the military representative.
Because no matter what, the military representative had indeed addressed many of the concerns and confusions present in people's hearts!
They were all elites of Russia, and once they went to the Holy Land, their current power and status would vanish into thin air.
Even from their perspective, had the situation really become as dire as what Jerusalem had stated?
Was there really a need to preserve the seeds of humanity?
What a joke!
What did they have to fear from terrifying mutated creatures?
In the face of the latest technological weapons humanity now possessed, couldn't these creatures only cower in their own territories?
At this time, many of the industry elites and executives present still had confidence in human technology weapons.
Because after the last global summit of humanity's pinnacle, they had monitored and researched these terrifying mutated creatures day and night.
They had uncovered many weaknesses in these mutated creatures.
If they exploited these well, it was very likely that in the future they could bring these mutated creatures to their knees.
There were very few known mutated creatures that remained unsolvable to this day.
Only the elusive Mysterious Sea Monster, the Human-Skin Giant Trees of the Tropical Rainforest, the murderously bloodthirsty Blood Frenzy Python, the unpredictably moving Godspeed Golden Eagle, and the Antarctic Giant Insect recently discovered in the Antarctic.
The strength of these five mutated creatures had been classified by humanity as the highest representative of combat power among mutated creatures.
Thus, they all ultimately supported the statements of the military representative.
A government official cleared his throat and said, "Yes, I cannot abandon the public, and just like Mr. Mord, I firmly believe in the triumph of human will over fate! As for the document that has come from Jerusalem, I think it's enough for everyone to just take a look.
If there indeed exists a disaster that not even all of Great Russia working together can withstand, then it must be a calamity that brings the entire world to the brink of destruction! Hence, I believe what we most need to do now is to stabilize people's livelihoods and prepare for war!"
After the government official finished speaking, a business tycoon stood up and said, "Right! Great Russia is my motherland, and I support it unconditionally. I am solely donating thirty tons of gold reserves and five billion US dollars on behalf of myself, and besides, my business group spans multiple industries including steel, oil, and trade.
I just need an official order and my entire business group can serve at cost price for the government!"
Following this, other industry magnates who could decide the rise and fall of entire sectors stood up to make their positions clear.
"My agriculture in the Siberia Plains will unconditionally open grain reserves for government use! Whatever is needed, we shall not refuse! Why should we follow orders from Jerusalem? We respect it and call it the Holy Land, but if we don't, it's just a tiny spot. How could it compare to the vast expanse of Great Russia?"
"Exactly, a tiny spot wants to command the globe? It should take a look at what qualifications it has! The Gusethriff Family has business interests all over the world; whatever resources the government needs, we will deliver at the lowest price and fastest speed!"
"To think that we would go there to be ordinary citizens taking orders from them? Jerusalem's status as a Holy Land alone isn't sufficient. The four major academies established by the New Humans will recommend the talent they've cultivated to the government first, and the academy tutors and advisors are also ready at any moment."
.....
The numerous high-level industry figures came forward to make their positions known, definitively setting the direction for this meeting.
Indeed, no one wanted to give up their current status and power to accept so-called protection in Jerusalem.
After the statements, the meeting immediately moved on to discuss how to stabilize public sentiment and prepare for war.
In addition, a unified approach was decided upon: not to show any dissatisfaction with the Holy Land Jerusalem publicly.
After all, Jerusalem was ultimately the Holy Land of the Three Religions, and everyone decided to save face, not to tear the face off globally, which would also give all religious people a final shred of faith and hope after the great changes of the world!
This meeting lasted for more than twenty hours, from day to night, and from night back to day again.
But not a single person left the meeting. Everyone was focused and engaged in discussion.
In the end, at the close of the meeting, there was unanimous agreement among all participants.
All individuals of power and influence collectively decided to give their all with the government to face an even more brutal and grim future!
The whole of Russia would enter the stage of national mobilization for war!
This was not just for the dire future described by Jerusalem but also for the blood battle against the mutated creatures that was happening now!
All the high-level industry figures present believed that as long as humanity was united, the world would ultimately belong to humans!
Humans must prevail!
This was the slogan shouted from the hearts of all high-level industry figures!
This slogan might have been silent, far less imposing than the shouts that rose during the review of elite soldiers,
but this silent shout had the power to change the entire situation in Great Russia!
After the meeting, the various industries, to prevent corruption during the national war preparation, established a joint monitoring organization!
Its enforcement rules were the most straightforward and clear-cut iron laws!
Anyone who was found to be occupying a position without fulfilling their duties, regardless of their rank, would be immediately replaced, and the competent would take their place!
