The emergence of Sky City changed the local climate of Crescent City. The heat energy generated by the operation of thousands of plasma engines formed convection with the cold air, causing strong winds throughout the city.

Weilai held the knitted hat on his head to prevent it from being blown away by the strong wind, looked up at the Sky City that appeared in the sky in the distance, and asked, "Didn't the boss say that he brought everyone back from the capital? Where are they?"

Qi Ling: "I just contacted them. They are still on the way. The capital is more than ten hours away from us by plane. They will probably arrive late tonight."

She took the laptop on the table and her fingers moved quickly on the keyboard: "It's almost time, let's proceed to the next plan."

"Attack Sky City!"

Under Qi Ling's operation, all the flying vehicle hangars on the middle floor of the Edge Building were opened, and dense formations of drones poured out of them, swooping into the sky like a swarm of flying ants.

These drones are all the most advanced military models with strong environmental adaptability. They are not affected by the strong wind. The roar of their engines in the formation resounds through the sky. Their large number almost covers the sun above the dome and casts a dark shadow like a tide on the ground.

Drones filled the sky and flew towards the Sky City from all directions. Compared with the vast and magnificent city in the sky, the drones were no bigger than specks of dust, but their number was so great that from a distance they looked like countless ants hunting giant beasts.

Soon, the first gunfire was heard in the air, and the drone formation launched a fierce attack. Various machine guns, lasers and micro missiles poured down like raindrops, and the dense firepower intertwined into a huge fire net in the air.

Laser beams danced in the air like red snakes of light, cutting through the sky with blazing energy. Micro missiles dragged long tails of flames. Machine gun bullets were like dense raindrops. All kinds of attacks whizzed towards the sky city.

As the supreme home of the human elite, Sky City naturally has the most advanced defense system.

As the attacking drones approached, the defensive drones belonging to Sky City also began to appear. They rushed straight towards the enemy formation and began to intercept.

The drones of both sides were fighting frantically under the control of their respective intelligent systems. The interceptor missiles drew arcs in the air and formed fireballs one after another after the explosion.

High-frequency pulse weapons release strong electromagnetic waves, interfering with and paralyzing the opponent's electronic system, causing it to lose control in the air and fall.

At this time, the sky had turned into a chaotic battlefield, with flames and smoke rising everywhere, and destroyed drones falling all the time, as if a burning rain of fire was falling from the sky.

In addition to dispatching drones for interception and defense, the Sky City also has an extremely advanced energy shield system. As each shield node lights up, a blue light curtain barrier unfolds around its main body, enveloping the entire Sky City.

These barriers made of pure energy have no blind spots and can block all attacks from drones.

The laser beam hit it, causing light to splash everywhere. The huge shock wave from the explosion of the micro-missile caused ripples, and the machine gun bullets were all bounced away with a series of crisp collisions. No matter how the drone attacked, it could not penetrate the barrier.

This air battle lasted for an entire day, from dawn to dusk. The afterglow of the setting sun gradually dyed the sky red, as if painting the sky with rich blood.

By this time, the drones launched from Crescent City had been basically used up and all were destroyed.

Obviously, it is impossible to attack the Sky City with the power of a mere city and relying solely on drones.

However, during this long and fierce battle, the shield energy of Sky City was also consumed, and because the power reactor was largely used for defense, the energy allocated to the propulsion engine was reduced, causing its movement to be abnormally slow, and it did not fly out of the suburbs of Crescent City for a whole day.

Gradually, night fell. The sky city with dazzling light curtain looked particularly magnificent in the night. The energy barrier was still standing. Drone wreckage could be seen everywhere on the ground. One could imagine how fierce the battle was during the day.

Countless white stars manifested by the Spear of Judgment still shine on the dome, forming a sea of ​​stars symbolizing death and telling of the destruction that will come at dawn after the dark night.

The 24-hour countdown to the crackdown is already two-thirds complete.

When the dawn rises, the end of the world will come.

On this last night before the end of the world, people's rationality completely collapsed in the face of fear, order no longer existed, and every place in the world was filled with chaos, despair, and violence.

On the streets of Crescent City, all kinds of chaos are happening.

A man in religious uniform stood on a burned car, holding high a black flag with strange totems painted on it, and fanatically preached to the people around him about doctrines such as the end of the world, judgment, gods, and punishment.

In this era, with the rapid development of science and technology, religious forces have long since declined, and under normal circumstances no one would care about him.

However, at this time, believers were kneeling around him.

In the despair of doomsday, these believers chose religion as a spiritual totem, used temporary faith to escape reality, and fell into collective frenzy.

They clasped their hands together and prayed devoutly, shouting slogans from the doctrine at the top of their lungs, as if this would bring them the so-called salvation.

Not far from these believers, a group of thugs were smashing, looting and burning. They were armed with sticks, iron pipes and Molotov cocktails, and were frantically destroying everything they could see around them.

Shop windows were smashed and cars on the street were set on fire. The raging flames illuminated the entire street, and also illuminated the brutality on the faces of the thugs.

They do not steal, rob, or have any clear goals. They just keep destroying, howling, and wantonly trampling on the legal bottom line that once imprisoned them, using this extreme method to vent their inner fear and despair.

In the city center, a large adult party was going on. High-powered speakers were playing exciting music from nightclubs. Thousands of naked men and women were indulging themselves in lust in the square. From a distance, they looked like countless twisting maggots. The scene was extremely disgusting.

Anyway, it was the last night, and no one cared about moral shame anymore. They all released their animal desires unscrupulously, trying to numb themselves with the pleasure brought by the flesh, and forget the impending doomsday in this bliss.

This may be the craziest night in human history.

Humanity's collective rationality has completely collapsed, moral and legal constraints no longer exist, and the entire world has fallen into chaos. Some people numb themselves in carnival, some vent their anger in violence, and some seek peace in faith. Everyone faces his fate in his own way.

And in this frenzied and chaotic night, no one noticed that a meteor streaked across the sky outside Crescent City.

The meteor lit up from the end of the sky and headed straight for the Sky City. It hit the energy barrier and exploded into a blue ripple.

Because a large amount of energy was consumed by the drone formation during the day, and the impact of this "meteor" was extremely strong, a hole was smashed in the Sky City's energy barrier.

Although the hole was restored almost instantly, the "meteor" had already entered its interior.

Where the "meteor" fell, two figures slowly walked out.

Su Mo folded the mechanical wings behind him, put down Su Motong who was in his arms, waved his hand to disperse the smoke and dust around him, and looked into the distance.

The sky city at night is shrouded in soft moonlight, as if covered with a layer of silver gauze.

Unlike the imagined scene of all kinds of high-tech facilities everywhere, there are almost no modern facilities here, and it is full of pristine natural landscapes.

The reason is very simple. When technology becomes widely popularized and steel skyscrapers are erected, nature becomes the most scarce thing, and only the supreme human elite are qualified to enjoy it.

Looking from a high place, the surface of the Sky City is covered with vast forests, like an endless green carpet, stretching out endlessly, and it looks particularly quiet and mysterious under the moonlight.

The ancient trees tower into the sky, their lush branches and leaves forming a green dome. Occasionally, a few rays of moonlight penetrate through the branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground. The breeze brings the sound of leaves rustling, as if whispering the secrets of the forest.

Various small animals live leisurely in the forest. A few deer are strolling in the woods, nibbling on the grass on the ground with their heads down, and listening to the movements around them with their ears pricked up from time to time.

Brown rabbits leaped out of the bushes and darted nimbly between the trees, stopping occasionally to sniff the air.

The owl on the branch opened its round eyes wide, staring quietly at everything on the ground, and making a low "cooing" sound from time to time.

In the center of the forest there is a lake area that is larger than the Crescent City Warm Water Lake. The lake water glows silver under the moonlight, like a huge mirror, reflecting the endless white stars in the sky.

The reeds by the lake swayed gently in the breeze. The white swans swam gracefully, sometimes lowering their heads to preen their feathers, and sometimes spreading their wings to flap the water, splashing waves and startling a few small fish to jump out of the water.

On this night before doomsday, humans with high intelligence have fallen into collective madness, while these ignorant animals are at ease, just like last night and countless nights in the past.

Su Mo picked up Su Motong again, activated the flight module of the prosthesis and flew towards the central area of ​​the Sky City. He switched to low-noise mode so as not to disturb the small animals in nature.

The Sky City is very large and the flying distance is quite a distance. While flying, Su Mo dialed the connection with the Edge Building, and specifically called KK.

"Brother!" After the call was connected, KK's concerned and urgent voice came from the other end, "Are you okay? Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"All right, I've already entered Sky City." Su Mo smiled slightly and said with some sadness, "I don't have anything to tell you, I just suddenly thought of the year we met."

"At that time I said that within three years I would be in the Sky City overlooking the whole world, and you would be standing by my side."

"Now I'm here, but I couldn't bring you with me, and it's a little late. I feel ashamed when I think about it."

KK's mind is as delicate as ever. He knows that the more important the occasion, the more likely people are to recall what happened along the way.

Su Mo seldom talked about the past before. He suddenly brought up the past now. It must be that he had a heavy burden in his heart.

After all, the fate of all mankind rests on him alone.

Therefore, KK did not appear serious, but responded humorously: "I thought you were just saying it casually, I didn't take it seriously, why did you take it seriously?"

"What's so good about the Sky City? I used to ride on the hovercraft every day when I was on business trips, and I'm tired of the scenery in the sky."

Su Mo smiled knowingly and said jokingly, "Oh, Master K has really become a master now. He was so happy to have baked potatoes before, but now he even looks down on Sky City."

KK said lazily: "No, the past is the past, and the present is the present. Do you still remember our first rental house? It was so old and small."

One of them was in the sky, and the other was on the ground, chatting heartily about the past.

Occasionally, wherever Sumer flew, he could see independent manors. They were built in dense woods and blended perfectly with the natural landscape.

The stone bricks of the manor building are covered with vines, and the green leaves look particularly soft in the moonlight. The windows are ancient glass windows with intricate patterns carved on the edges.

The courtyard is filled with a variety of flowers. Several smart lights hung on the branches emit soft light, shrouding the manor in beautiful light and shadow.

These are the homes of the Sky City residents.

The area of ​​Sky City is about the same as Crescent City. Crescent City is home to 3200 million people, while there are only 112 people living in Sky City.

At a time when technology has penetrated into every corner of life, these human elites are like kings, owning vast tracts of land and enjoying a simple and natural life.

But something was unusual tonight. There was no one in the manor that Sumer passed by. These human elites seemed to have disappeared from their own small kingdom, and no one knew where they had gone.

Time passed minute by minute, and Su Mo finally arrived at the central area of ​​Sky City.

The moonlight illuminated a building standing in the wilderness. Its exterior walls were made of black stones, and everywhere on its surface one could see some bizarre symbols that had never appeared in human culture. They glowed faintly in the moonlight, exuding a strange and ominous aura.

The building is in the shape of a tower, with its spire piercing the night sky like a sword. Many stained glass windows can be seen around it. The pictures painted on them are not common religious patterns, but bizarre things that are difficult to describe in words.

The red color drips like blood, the green color twists like a poisonous snake, and the blue color is as deep as the deep sea. Through these gloomy colored glasses, you can vaguely see the mottled light spots inside the church, as if countless pairs of eyes are watching the outside world in the darkness.

Su Mo and Su Motong landed at the main entrance of the building. There was a circle of tall iron fences. Each iron bar was wrapped with thorns, and the sharp thorns flashed coldly in the moonlight.

This building obviously does not belong to the style of any era in human history and is filled with an ominous atmosphere.

Su Motong stared at the bizarre symbols carved on the surface of the building, then swept his eyes across the colored windows with bizarre paintings, and said in a deep voice: "These do not belong to human civilization, they are all related texts and paintings from the construct civilization."

Su Mo: "Yes, this is our final battlefield."

He whispered into the communicator, "KK, it's time to say goodbye."

KK's resolute voice came from the other end: "Go ahead, we are all waiting for you here."
