Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 637: Possible Major Accident
On the way back, Shanying looked up this so-called Global Leadership Conference on Arctic Affairs...

This was a meeting organized by the US State Department and attended by representatives from many countries. It was held in Anchorage, Alaska, USA.

The meeting was to discuss issues related to the Arctic, with climate change being the central topic.

The meeting was attended by 20 countries and the European Union, including eight Arctic Council members such as the United States and Russia, and 8 non-Arctic countries such as Southeast Asia, island countries, and India.

The meeting will be officially held in May 2015, which is still five months away.

But before that, the United States invited representatives from EU countries and the Five Eyes Alliance in advance, and the deputy foreign ministers of each country sat together and organized a low-key preliminary meeting.

They hope to reach some advance agreements and understandings before the end of 2014.

Climate change is just a topic of the meeting. In fact, they want to use the issue of climate change to promote a series of measures to curb the economic development of third world countries.

Just like the upcoming Paris Climate Conference, on the surface it appears that all countries are working hand in hand to save the earth's climate problem.

But in reality, it is a disguised form of industrial regulation through the allocation of carbon emission indicators.

Of course, controlling the rise in global temperature is indeed a responsibility that humans cannot avoid...

It's just that this responsibility is shared by everyone, which is particularly unfair to developing countries.

Because their people have not yet enjoyed the benefits, but have to bear the same responsibilities and suffer the consequences of delayed development.

The U.S. State Department initiated the Global Leadership Conference on Arctic Affairs, which is, to some extent, an attempt to compete with Europe, which dominated the Paris Climate Conference, for the right to speak and leadership on climate issues.

Otherwise, why would the EU and the Five Eyes Alliance be on their preliminary meeting list, when most of their countries are not even adjacent to the Arctic.

The official meeting list that has been announced does not include France and Britain, but the University of East China, which is also not adjacent to the Arctic, is on the list.

In fact, the essence of the conference is to strive for international influence and power, and then everyone will pay some money and give the money to certain NGOs to let them implement the protection of the Arctic ecology.

I don’t know if it’s useful or not, but Shanying is very clear that most of these types of NGOs have connections in the academic or public opinion circles.

This world is so unfair!

Some people work hard all their lives and have never experienced any good things, but in the end a serious illness takes away all their savings and they die in pain.

However, some people can easily obtain wealth and fame through various bizarre operations.

The "opposition" and "swearing" faction are just a relatively low-end kind of group...

As long as you have a certain influence, as long as you behave extreme and shameless enough, and dare to hold up a sign and curse at the door of the White House, as long as the timing is right, the corresponding NGO will come to you and arrange for the media to interview you.

The guiding party always has a lot of funds!

However, compared with this low-end faction, there are also backbone forces such as "scientific research faction", "academic faction", "environmental protection" and "animal protection" in international affairs.

Regardless of whether they do it or not, their influence is absolutely huge!

A professor in England and several students worked in a laboratory, used computers to simulate future climate change on Earth and wrote a paper.

Regardless of their intentions, once the issues they raised were politicized, "carbon tax" was quickly put on the table.

This is the power of the 'scientific research school' and the 'academic school'!

They certainly can't control the course of events, but they can get enough money!
In fact, when things develop to a certain extent, their research results are no longer important!
Even once politicians find that the situation is not favorable to them, scientists who have come to the opposite conclusion will jump out and tell everyone...

In fact, carbon emissions do not have a decisive impact on climate change, at least they should not affect the country's development and the welfare of the people.

Shanying wasn't sure if his guess was right...

However, the U.S. State Department invited a group of deputy foreign ministers and various environmental protection-related NGOs to come to Alaska for a low-key meeting, which did bring together a group of important people in Anchorage.

Thinking of those environmental NGOs, Shanying realized something...

Watching Kobe holding up the phone and talking loudly about something, Shanying patiently waited for him to finish talking, and then said: "From your expression, I know that no one will believe what you say..."

Shanying paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said seriously, "Check the members of those environmental NGOs, find out all those with MSL backgrounds, and keep a close eye on them..."

Kobe's anxious face changed color. He turned around and told his partner Ada a few words, then came to Shanying and said sincerely, "Sir, I need help, and unreserved help.

Otherwise, if the Ebola virus was released, I would be called back to Washington and shoved into some dark underground archive room.

I know what you want?
There is no conflict between us. The Edward Foundation, an organization with an extreme right-wing background, is what we need to pay attention to. "Kobe looked into the eyes of the mountain eagle and said very seriously: "Ebola virus is not the other party's ultimate goal, but Ebola virus is an important bargaining chip to create chaos.

Having Brad Russell in our hands means we have leverage to get back or destroy the Ebola virus."

Shanying didn't know why, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Why did Azrael, the so-called 'Angel of Death', think that releasing the Ebola virus would allow him to get Brad Russell?
Just like a nuclear bomb can only lie on the launch pad, the Ebola virus is only a deterrent when it has not yet been released!

But why do people at the Department of Homeland Security seem to have tacitly acknowledged that the virus would be released?

Frowning and looking at the anxious and confused Kobe, Shanying was silent for a moment and said, "I'm a little confused, why do you think those guys will definitely release the virus?

Once Ebola is released, there will be no room for negotiation..."

Kobe said with a difficult expression: "I was just skeptical before, but now I am sure!"

Kobe looked at the puzzled expression on Eagle's face, sighed and said, "Don't you understand that for those big guys, as long as the Ebola virus stays in Alaska, it will always be controllable.

But once these viruses spread to a group of influential people and these people are controlled, the situation will be completely reversed.

The incubation period of the Ebola virus is approximately 8 to 12 days. Without symptomatic treatment, the mortality rate of people infected with the Ebola virus will reach about 75%.

These 8 to 12 days are the bargaining chips that the terrorists want! "

Shanying understood instantly...

As long as those terrorists infect the bigwigs of various countries with the virus, the pressure on America will increase every day they are detained!

America will indeed not compromise with terrorists, but the prerequisite is that one side of the scale is just ordinary people.

Because they have the ability to make the ordinary people on the terrorist side pay hundreds or thousands of times the price, and can even use it as an excuse to start a war and give rise to a huge war economy.

It is impossible for terrorists to exchange Brad Russell for the Ebola virus, but if they put a big shot on the scale, things will be completely different!
If Shanying was involved at this time and things were not handled properly in the end, he would be in trouble.

In order to shirk responsibility, these politicians are willing to do anything and say anything!

Seeing Kobe's anxious look, Shanying thought for a few minutes, and finally he pretended to look at his watch and said, "It's too late, I want to go back to sleep...

I originally wanted to ask you for a waiver agreement and then work with the Department of Homeland Security, but now I have changed my mind...

If you break Glassman's legs for me tonight, I will help you catch those two thieves for free."

Shanying looked at Kobe, who was hesitant to speak, and waved his hand, saying, "Don't waste your time here...

Now no matter what the other party wants to do, since you have found a breakthrough, you should do everything you can to prevent it from happening.

The meeting was organized by the U.S. State Department, so the Secret Service should be responsible for security...

If you, as a senior agent of the Department of Homeland Security, give them a little warning, they will definitely be happy to strengthen security measures and may even cooperate with you in making some preparations.

Thinking from another angle, you might be able to set a trap..."

Kobe was not as optimistic as the Eagles, but he knew very well that what the guy in front of him said was right...

There was no point in wasting time with the Eagles here, Kobe turned around and whispered a few words to his friend Dannon...

Seeing Dannon's incredible expression, Kobe said seriously: "Go ahead, I will report the situation we are facing. Everyone can understand if something unexpected happens during the interrogation."

After that, Kobe turned to Shanying and said seriously, "Sir, how long will it take for me to get news about those two thieves?"

Shanying looked at Kobe, who suddenly became very decisive. He glanced at his watch and said, "24 hours. If everything goes well, the two thieves will appear in front of you within 24 hours."

Kobe nodded with a heavy expression and said, "Sir, you actually participated in the battle in the wilderness, right?

Do you have any more details?"

Shanying thought for a moment and said, "The other side shot down the Reaper drone with an anti-aircraft missile, which shows that they were very well prepared!

They spoke Arabic and had been in contact with Philip Royce, which means they had been active in Alaska a long time ago.

But there is a problem here that I have never figured out..."
