Marvel Book of Magical Events

Victor von Doom was unhappy because his monarch still refused to appear in public other than on the battlefield (a battlefield that was defined to include the United Nations headquarters in Manhattan). However, this situation brings relief to the countries receiving the state visit, because until now the world does not know the name of the Latvian monarch and cannot use an exact title to make announcements. What's more, the official news media are not willing to take photos of the Emperor of Latvinia, because he is a giant in golden power armor. When standing next to his own leader, everyone will always look particularly dwarfed, resulting in Let the country's image be damaged at an invisible level.

The Emperor of Latvinia is truly an elusive being.

According to onlookers who had seen him in Viana or New York, whenever the Emperor of Latvinia appeared, everyone's hearts were involuntarily shocked by his majesty and brilliance, as if he were some kind of supreme being. Existing and not extraordinary. Some people believe that this is a supernatural phenomenon, and therefore have doubts about the country established by the emperor of Latvinia. Others are privately reading religious books, trying to find the answer. It seems that the Emperor of Latovinia has also considered this issue, so when holding secret talks, the Emperor of Latovinia took off his power armor and put on civilian clothes, but did not use the powerful charm that could influence others.

In fact, when Victor von Doom refused to sit at the head of the negotiating table and stood up and sat on the second seat, everyone knew that the negotiation on the secret agreement was not about him, and his status could There is only one person higher than the Regent of Latovinia, and that is the Emperor of Latovinia. The Emperor of Latvinia who walked into the conference room was the tall young man they had seen in the delegation before and who had not joined the formal dinner - many low-level officials from the Russian Foreign Ministry and low-level Latvian officials were having official exchanges. Everyone saw the young man sitting in the corner pouring glass after glass of ice-cold vodka into his mouth. He chatted happily with low-level officials of the Russian diplomatic department. His fluent Russian even made the other party think he was a translator. In a short time, he drank an entire bottle of liquor that could freeze his tongue, which frightened the other party and tried to dissuade him. Put work first.

The Emperor of Latovinia first apologized politely for hiding his identity, and then explained that the reason why he was unwilling to come here with great fanfare was because the teleportation technology would cause a lot of noise. The security procedures now established for him by Constantine, the commander of the Praetorian Guards, would make any country in the world regard it as a signal to go to war. The purpose of this visit is not war but peace, just as Latovinia's original goal was to end mankind. He is unwilling to start a war for such stupid reasons, like building a community with a shared future for mankind and moving towards the sea of ​​stars. He revealed that no one in the mission except the regent knew his true identity, and he begged them not to regard this behavior as an insult or slight, and that he was willing to make amends for such a small concealment.

This statement was easily accepted, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.

The Emperor of Latvinia and Victor von Doom then worked together to discuss the details of the agreement with the other country's leaders, intelligence agencies, and administrative teams. This is a secret agreement that the public cannot see through any information channels. It includes the military assistance, weapons and equipment sent to Latvinia after the alien fleet appears. If an alien fleet arrives and the human race faces life and death, a steady stream of soldiers and weapons will be transported from the cooperative countries to Latvinia. They will take the spaceport that will be built by that time to go to space, board the space battleship, accept command, and fight. A war to protect the human race. By then Latovinia will become the backbone of all cooperating countries leading mankind to fight against alien fleets, and many technologies will be unconditionally opened to Latovinia. This was of course conditional, and there were many details worth discussing in the agreement. The emperor of Latovinia was responsible for explaining some of the parts that caused doubts about the other party.

For example, make sure you are an out-and-out human being, explain your identity as an immortal and what an immortal is, explain that so-called psykers are just people with strong mental powers and not aliens, and why psykers need to be strictly controlled. , whether Latovinia is qualified to take away people with psychic talents from cooperative countries for education and control. He said that the Sokovia Accords are not complete and comprehensive. What they need is an effective and accurate code of law, rather than a tool led by the United Nations and used by European and American countries to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.

He explained that he chose dictatorial methods because he could stay young almost forever, and he had extremely strong personal fighting ability. He alone could ensure that the entire country's path of travel would not change, and that the old Soviet Union would never happen again. Latovinia will always fight for the survival of the human race. The authority he has in power alone can ensure that this goal will never change, and he will not make wrong decisions due to age or other reasons.

Of course, the other party would not completely believe this kind of thing, and Latovinia did not force the other party to believe it.

So the secret treaty's promise of deeper cooperation was temporarily put on hold.

The efficiency of the work of the emperor and the regent was extremely amazing. Terms that originally required lengthy negotiations were quickly finalized due to pragmatic tendencies. Latovinia did not show its willingness to harm and its ability to harm in peacetime negotiations, because Latovinia, which almost swallowed the entire Balkan Peninsula and Yugoslavia in the first expansion war, had already proven everything. For countries that can agree to this secret agreement, Latovinia will not hesitate to give something more precious than the THAAD anti-missile system.

Latovinia has the technology to break away from the monopoly of all high-tech companies and military-industrial complexes on the planet today. Take the completely inconspicuous chip as an example. Latovinia's chip manufacturing industry has already overcome the quantum tunneling effect and chosen a development path that is completely different from that of transistor chips. This makes it almost impossible for foreign electronic warfare departments to destroy Latvinia. The virus offensive of the United States and Israel against Iran's nuclear reactors cannot have the same effect on Latvinia. No country can tolerate cyber virus attacks on nuclear power plants and power grids. No one knows whether the nuclear power plants in their territory will cause core meltdowns due to the other party's electronic warfare. No one dares to bet on this possibility. Not many countries can suffer a large-scale power outage. , large-scale water outages and loss of communications, it still retains the will to fight. At least European countries do not have this possibility and will now. This is also one of the important means for Latovinia to control European countries in the first expansion war. Second to cutting off satellite communications.

Therefore, the secret agreement also includes cooperation on network security, nuclear power plant upgrades, etc., but these are things for later.

Have you read Asimov's novel The Last Question? the emperor of Latovinia asked the regent before the meeting ended. It was a question about whether entropy increase is reversible - the question was said in Latin and only one interpreter understood it. This is now the official language of Latvinia. During the previous negotiations, Latvinia used automatic listening and translation headphones that they carried with them. In that novel, the artificial intelligence created by humans developed step by step and finally spread as humans spread. The entire universe and even hyperspace, but artificial intelligence still cannot solve this problem. Until trillions of years later, when human beings become immortal and their consciousness ascends into one body, leaving their immortal bodies in the real world, the question of artificial intelligence will still be unanswerable, and the universe will inevitably move toward heat death. All the stars went out, the universe fell into complete darkness and began to collapse, leaving only the last bit of matter moving slowly driven by the last bit of energy. The universe is dead, absolute zero has descended on the entire universe, and the concepts of time and space no longer exist.

This is the end of the universe, a peaceful eternal heat death. In this eternal darkness, even death fades away.

Are you worried about the heat death of the universe now? Victor von Doom asked with a smile. This was the first time he smiled since the meeting began, as if chatting with his monarch was a relaxing thing. Are you worried about your retirement?
