Chapter 448: Chapter 218: Positioning_3 Chapter 448: Chapter 218: Positioning_3 The representative from The United States military also said, “Now that we know there’s such a device inside the Gold Brick, there’s no need to panic. We can just wait for the news.”
The young Arican woman representing the US Governnt asked, “Can this Position Locator still function, and what is its effective sending range?”
Professor Eddie said, “These Position Locators can operate inside the Gold Bricks for up to 50 years. Even if located 1,000 ters underground, they can still send out clear signals that allow us to locate them.”
Only then did the young woman express satisfaction and say, “Then there’s no problem.”
A CIA representative was about to speak, but seeing everyone else letting out a sigh of relief, he suddenly fell silent and lapsed back into a state of dozy indifference.
So, the group stayed in the Underground Gold Vault waiting for news. As ti slipped away, they didn’t receive any signal from the Position Locators, but instead they were hit with disastrous news. Soone had been spreading rumors on the Internet that the gold from the New York Federal Reserve Bank Underground Gold Vault had been completely stolen.
No one knew how this person managed to spread this news around the world so quickly. The young Arican woman representing the US Governnt imdiately reported the matter to the President, and upon receiving authorization from the President, adopted a forceful approach to extinguishing the information, demanding that all social dia platforms around the world imdiately and completely delete the ssage.
Under the strong suppression from the US President, Western countries closely allied with The United States quickly removed the ssage. However, the world isn’t entirely controlled by the US Governnt; in Russia, China, and so other countries dissatisfied with Arica, the ssage wasn’t deleted at all. Instead, they continually analyzed the ssage and questioned why the US Governnt was prohibiting the countries owning the gold from sending representatives to check on their gold’s status, which seed extrely unreasonable. Then they called on the US Governnt to agree to let the countries transfer their gold back dostically.
The sudden ergence of this ssage placed the US Governnt under imnse pressure. However, they weren’t too worried, as the Position Locators within the Gold Bricks were about to send back the location of the gold. Once the gold was recovered, the President would surely give those who doubted the US a harsh rebuttal.
Soon, 24 hours had passed since the gold mysteriously vanished, and while everyone waited expectantly, the receiving equipnt didn’t pick up any signals. Anxiety began to set in, but they had no choice but to keep waiting. After another 24 hours had passed, the supposed Position Locators still hadn’t transmitted any signals. A realization dawned that this thod might not be reliable after all, and their plans to swiftly recover the gold had ultimately failed.
However, Eddie imdiately assured everyone that they had previously confird the positioning functions of these Position Locators. As long as the gold was still on Earth, unless it was situated more than 1,000 ters underground, theoretically, the US satellites could detect their signals and retrieve them. Now, the absence of a signal indicated only one thing—that the gold was located deeper than 1,000 ters or in an area with strong energy interference, blocking the Locator’s signal.
Upon hearing Eddie’s explanation, everyone felt sowhat helpless. It ant that regardless of the Position Locators’ condition, using them to find the gold in a short ti was impossible. They could only imdiately report the situation here to their superiors and hope that their governnt would prepare a response soon.
If other countries in the world confird that the gold was indeed lost, then Arica’s currency and international credibility would collapse, leading to a devastating domino effect on US bonds, the stock market, and financial markets. A misstep could cause the US economy to plumt significantly. But with preparation, the US might be able to gloss over the crisis using other thods…
