War, ethnic cleansing, aliens, apocalypse crisis...
Although I had a feeling about this earlier, it seems things are developing in an uncontrollable direction.
"I... have nothing to say, these are things that only appear in science fiction novels, why ..."
Yang Yi was sowhat at a loss for words, but Bruno waved his hand and smiled, "Wait, maybe you haven’t realized it yet, but the fate of humanity is in your hands."
Yang Yi took a deep breath and said, "My shoulders can’t bear such a heavy responsibility, haha, the fate of humanity, haha, your joke isn’t very funny, haha..."
"So, you haven’t realized it yet, let tell you why. First, think about the na ’Cleaner,’ what does it remind you of?"
"Cleaner, of course, is cleaning, sanitization. A group called Cleaner must be doing dirty work, uh, okay, cleaning here and there, cleaning Earth, cleaning humanity, is that what it ans?"
Bruno smiled slightly and said, "Correct, the mission of the Cleaner is indeed to clean humanity, but do you know what their main business is?"
"I know, yes, it’s helping people eliminate cri evidence, that’s the main business of the Cleaner."
Bruno nodded and said, "Exactly, that’s why the Cleaner’s power is getting stronger and stronger, because once they help soone clear cri evidence, imagine, what kind of people get help from the Cleaner, and what happens to those people afterward?"
"Only people with money, power, and influence can afford the Cleaner. And once Cleaner helps clean cri evidence, it ans that there’s leverage held by the Cleaner. Additionally, a deeper level of cooperation begins; once they cooperate with Cleaner once, they’ll often use them. People are habitual creatures, and with leverage already held by the Cleaner, if they continue long-term cooperation..."
Yang Yi spread his hands and said, "Alright, I get it, the power of the Cleaner is imnsely large, extrely large because there aren’t many people clean in this world."
Bruno nodded and said, "Yes, not many people are clean, that’s the key. So the power of the Cleaner becos more extensive, and the terrifying reality is when the Soviet Union broke apart, losing control of its nuclear arsenal. The long-pursued goal of the Cleaner suddenly beca a reality."
"Nuclear weapons..."
"Yes, nuclear weapons!"
Bruno sighed softly and said, "Think about it, when an organization with a target of ethnic cleansing gains a large number of nuclear weapons, what would the consequences be?"
Yang Yi pressed his forehead with his hand and grimaced, "Oh no, this is troubleso, what are you all thinking?"
Bruno said very seriously, "Why do I say that the fate of humanity is in your hands? Because Cleaner won’t initiate war without obtaining the Ark of the Covenant, but you helped the Cleaner obtain the Ark of the Covenant. Believe , the nuclear war will break out the next day."
"Wait, does Cleaner have the ability to start a nuclear war?"
Bruno sighed softly and said, "We... more precisely, Aaron pushed the CIA to try to capture Big Ivan. You’ve heard of him, right? He’s an arms dealer, the biggest arms dealer, and most importantly, he has nuclear weapons."
Yang Yi knew Big Ivan had nuclear weapons, but where Big Ivan’s nuclear weapons went, no one knows.
Yang Yi sighed and said, "I understand now. Aaron attempted to take down Big Ivan because Big Ivan possessed nuclear weapons and collaborated with Cleaner. Thus, Cleaner acquired nuclear weapons, yet Aaron failed, correct?"
"Yes, Big Ivan has nuclear weapons, but he refuses to sell them. Why? Because Big Ivan knows that nuclear weapon proliferation isn’t beneficial to him as an arms dealer. He’s wealthy enough already; acquiring more money is aningless if the world is destroyed. Big Ivan understands this logic."
"If Big Ivan understands this logic, then how did Cleaner manage to obtain nuclear weapons?"
"It’s not just acquiring nuclear weapons but obtaining enough of them. Cleaner had long acquired nuclear weaponry, but in insufficient quantities. But how many warheads did Big Ivan have? Two hundred warheads, more than two hundred! Do you know what impact those two hundred warheads could have? They could ignite an imdiate Third World War between Arica and Russia, a nuclear war, because you’re surely aware of nuclear proliferation."
Yang Yi exhaled lightly and said, "I understand, fully aware, with dozens of nuclear warheads exploding on US soil, and then... it’d certainly be the Third World War."
Bruno nodded, then said with a hint of helplessness, "We know that Cleaner has collaborated with Big Ivan and has always wanted to get nuclear weapons from him. So... Aaron decided to deal with Big Ivan first."
"It’s like striking first, capturing Big Ivan, forcing him to reveal the location of the nuclear weapons, and letting the United States collect all those nuclear weapons, then everything would be fine, right? But it went horribly wrong, Big Ivan escaped, and Aaron’s actions not only failed to solve the problem but enabled Cleaner to gain the warheads, correct?"
Bruno contemplated for a mont, then nodded and said, "Although it’s hard to accept, that’s the truth. Aaron had no reason to fail, but... sothing went wrong, soone in South Africa rescued Big Ivan, under various impossible circumstances, leading to an absolute failure of the operation."
Yang Yi knew who that person was but didn’t plan to reveal it, whereas Bruno regretfully said directly, "This person is Gong Yang."
"Uh, Gong Yang, huh."
Alright, Bruno knew it was Gong Yang who saved Big Ivan.
"Aaron is continually self-blaming, deeply self-blaming. Because the action he led failed, causing Cleaner to acquire a significant number of nuclear weapons, do you know what Cleaner’s doing? They’re hoarding outdated conventional weapons, old weapons, even production lines. Do you know why?"
"Yes, nuclear warfare will cause electronic equipnt to beco ineffective. At that ti, weapons relying on electronics will beco scrap tal, while pure chanical ones can continue to be used—whether advanced or not doesn’t matter, usability is crucial."
Bruno made a shooting gesture with his hand, then quietly said, "Now, nuclear weapons are already on launchers. All that’s left needed to press the switch for World War III is one insurance—the Ark of the Covenant. Before obtaining the Ark, Cleaner won’t fire. If Cleaner can obtain the Ark, it all hinges on you. So, would you say that the fate of humanity is in your hands?"
Yang Yi opened his mouth, then displayed a look of bewildernt and said, "I feel so much pressure, so much pressure..."
