I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 1178 Who is in whose game?
Fujiwara Masahiro raised his hand and brought up a yellowish holographic image. In the image, a young Fujiwara and Seren stood in front of a group of old buildings in Tokyo, Japan.

"Seren had warned us long ago,"

We must find a solution before the Earth is engulfed by the crisis of the source of destruction, which is why the IET underground array is buried extremely deep beneath the subway.
Tokyo had already begun preparing solutions for this crisis.

Even if the price is the stagnation of the 'golden thirty years'.

I have said before that if Tokyo were to fall as a result, I would take full responsibility.

"bear?"

Ehrlich suddenly chuckled, swiping his finger across the screen to bring up an encrypted file.
"What you call taking responsibility is building a shelter underground in Tokyo and arranging a stand-in with a body and voice that are exactly the same as yours?"

Washington had already received the intelligence.

He turned his gaze to Hall:

"Representative Hall, is this the 'responsibility' you tacitly agree to?"

Hall leaned back in his chair.
He spoke slowly, his voice as cold as ice:
"Fujiwara, you really don't want to miss anything."

Is it appropriate to find a substitute to take the blame for you, so you don't have to bear any psychological pressure at all?

In the holographic projection,
His finger tapped the screen:

"The President has just signed the final directive of the coalition government:"
Immediately terminate the Mars mission and prioritize Earth's safety.

If the swarm breaks through Mars, it will activate the 'Solar System Firewall' plan—destroying all interstellar travel routes between Mars and Earth.

"That double was a fake created by Les Einton; I had no idea!"

Fujiwara Masahiro smiled dismissively.

"Only rats hiding in the gutter would try to survive in the face of the end times. I'm about to die, and I can't do such a thing."

All you want is a puppet.
But I'm not.

If you choose to retreat now, the Martian Zerg swarm will completely spiral out of control!

Hall said in a deep voice:

"Do you have any other good ideas?"

For this,

Fujiwara remained silent for a long time before finally offering a method he had been reluctant to suggest:

"I will activate the full energy reserves of the Tokyo Metropolitan Underground Array to recharge the seal of Seren through the quantum channel."

As for the stand-in and the original plan that was discussed before…

He raised his hand and deleted his permissions for the shelter.
"The coalition government can postpone the activation of the 'Solar System Firewall'."
But you only have thirty minutes.

--------------------------------

With the dissolution of their meeting,
Before the fog in Tokyo had dissipated, a dull tremor suddenly came from the ground along the Makuhari Beach in Chiba.

Then,

Caroline, who had allocated some computing power to monitor the environment around Tokyo, instantly sent Su Wen a corresponding geological monitoring alert:

The frequency of crustal activity on the Izu Peninsula surged from 0.3 Hz to 2.7 Hz, corresponding to electromagnetic interference values ​​exceeding 5 μV/m.

This has far exceeded the safety threshold:
"Clearly, the star core crystal of the Izu remote sensing has begun to release runaway energy due to the disordered resonance of the residual signal from Seren."

"It seems you and your allies have some disagreements."

According to law, it is in accordance with the law.

The crisis that Tokyo is about to face should perhaps not be attributed to external factors.
Rather, it's an internal imbalance.

Su Wen smiled.

He actually knew from the beginning that the forces behind Tokyo Metropolitan Government were deeply intertwined with the Resurrected.

Therefore, even though the data girl who appeared very calm in front of Mr. Seren did not make any emotional statements.

He believes that the truth is at most 30%.

In other words, this is why, when he met with Fausta, he also eavesdropped on the attitude of the samurai who was talking to the 'silkworm' through Caroline.

He didn't want to understand what these people were planning.

after all,

Those so-called 'schemes' were perhaps far too insignificant in his overall plan.

"Everything is already within my reasoning. If my reasoning is correct."

Caroline, after your grand broadcast just now, if Washington's attention isn't focused on blocking the Earth-fire route,
Then perhaps I should question their professionalism.

The handsome scholar walked unhurriedly to the opposite side of Fayit.

He followed his previous experience at Natsume Chie's house.

I took a packet of tea from the cupboard.
I brewed a pot of tea.

Then he invited Mr. Seren to sit opposite him:

"Even if the solar system is blocked, we will have a way to return, so don't worry."

now,

On the other side of his computer screen, the view had changed to a Tokyo skyline bathed in the glow of sunset colors, a result of the underground array fully absorbing energy.

The Tokyo skyline trembled slightly.
The air was filled with an extraordinary sense of disorientation and loss of control, but the handsome scholar showed no surprise whatsoever.

Just as he just said:
The emergency mobilization of military equipment and the gathering of extraordinary individuals across regions on Earth's side were all within his expectations.

after all,

The communication broadcast on Mars about the "origin of the proliferator" was a "signal" he personally delivered.

That broadcast was by no means a spur-of-the-moment decision:
This wasn't just about getting Fayit to give up her 'little schemes,' but also about something more important.

That's because he needs an experiment now, an experiment to gather global influence.

Only by keeping the world's attention firmly focused on Deep Tokyo can his subsequent plans be implemented smoothly, and only then will those secrets spanning eras have the value of being exposed and utilized.

As for the last one,
And the most crucial third point,

With the Tokyo Metropolitan Energy Array now fully activated, the "Reverse Tokyo" plan can also proceed normally, provided there is a suitable energy source.

Fujiwara has also entered the game.

Reality and the future began to intersect under his planning.

that's it,
The old wall clock in Natsume Chie's study, just like the one in her house, was still ticking away.

Su Wen simply bowed slightly to the elderly man in front of him, whose temples were all white and who exuded the weight of time.

His demeanor was humble yet not subservient, as if he were simply expressing his gratitude for an ordinary academic discussion.

“Mr. Seren, I have rehearsed the course of the Tokyo crisis countless times.”

From the collapse of the surface order to the deep-seated power struggles, and even the potential chain reactions after the crisis ends, all of this is within my calculations.

Su Wen's voice was as calm as jade that had been soaked in ice water, clear and powerful.

But I have to admit,

I never imagined that the secret buried here was related to the killing of the insect swarm.

This did slightly exceed my expectations.

of course,

The moment the word "slightly" landed, Caroline, leaning against the doorframe, couldn't help but roll her eyes wide.

In such a crowded setting, the hacker naturally opted to wear a slightly loose black hoodie to maintain her digital image.

So no one noticed her micro-expressions.

But Caroline was clearly immune to Su Wen's boasting.

Keep in mind that this was a swarm of killer insects that even Cypherdaros Technology could only seal off, yet in his words it was only "slightly excessive".

But this time,
She ultimately refrained from interrupting, which was quite unusual.

After all, the whole thing started when she was just relaxing at home on the sofa browsing NASA's firewall. When she sensed Mr. Rhein's special signal, she simply wanted to bother him a bit and have some fun.

Unexpectedly, they stepped directly into a crisis that could overturn the solar system.

But if she knew in advance that this would happen, well, she might still find it very exciting.

She loves this kind of exciting thing the most.

She certainly didn't want to miss out.
