Apocalyptic waste
Chapter 356 The Imperial City Gathers
"Awakened people have to undertake the most dangerous task. Let them have the same status as non-awakened people. Do you think they can agree to it? Besides, we didn't treat non-awakened people equally before. How many elites sacrificed to save them? ? Provide them with a safe place to sleep and free food, but what do they give us in return? Complaints? Dissatisfaction? Jealousy? Or do they not want to label the awakened as aliens and try to keep their mainstream status?" Liu Chenghan continued unfinished before topic of.
"That was just the beginning, and people's mentality hasn't changed yet..." Although Song Ting was a little absent-minded, he subconsciously retorted.
"It is still necessary to distinguish between high and low status, otherwise, who would want to fight with mutant creatures." At this time, someone spoke up and clearly supported Liu Chenghan.
Song Ting looked over, without any surprise or anger.Judging from the information received, this person was originally close to the imperial capital, and it was normal for him to help speak.
As soon as he opened his mouth, several base leaders who wanted to establish a good relationship with the imperial capital echoed.There are also some neutral people who remain silent, obviously not ready to express their attitude easily until the real purpose of the imperial capital is determined.
"My base treats the awakened and the non-awakened in the same way, regardless of high or low, just do their best, and everyone is very motivated." As a brother, Song Yan must unconditionally support his elder brother, not to mention that he does not approve of people graded.
"It's the same in my place." Liu Qiye knocked on his cigarette stick, and said slowly, "In the end, we are all human beings, and it's too chilling to divide the high and low, and it's not good for unity. .”
"The two subordinates only have 2000 people. How can the management method be applied to a large base with tens of thousands of people..." The person who spoke before said with a smile. Tens of thousands of people have built the base, and none of them are human beings, and it is easy to hear what he is saying.He was alluding to the fact that Song Yan and Liu Qiye brought too few people, so they were not qualified to speak here.
Both Song Yan and Liu Qiye were not easily provoked by strangers, and they didn't react too much after hearing it, but Shi Hao said lightly: "Everyone in Baixia is equal, and I haven't seen anyone complain."
The man was choked.Baixia is not an ordinary small base, but it can stand side by side with the imperial capital Ruzhou and other bases.Several other base leaders who stood on the same front as him hurriedly chimed in, using examples from their own bases to prove that it is correct to separate the status of the awakened and the non-awakened.
As a result, everyone was taken to a crooked building before they could figure out the real purpose of the imperial capital base.Liu Chenghan didn't stop him either, apparently he wanted to roughly determine everyone's thoughts through this method.Song Ting was even less anxious. His original intention was to disrupt the meeting and prevent the Imperial Capital Base from succeeding. What's more, he was still a little restless at this time, and he didn't bother to talk any more.
Just as they were arguing, an indescribable sense of oppression suddenly emerged in everyone's hearts, as if the thick clouds in the sky were pressing down, making them stop their mouths unconsciously.The sudden silence made everyone a little confused. Just when someone wanted to speak again, his whole body shook, dizzy and nauseated, as if the whole world was shaking.
"No, earthquake!" Someone exclaimed.
Everyone at the scene reacted very quickly and didn't shout too much. They jumped up and ran outside the hotel.However, the people who ran out first were stunned, looking at the distant sky stupidly, so that the people who didn't come out behind were blocked, and couldn't help cursing their mothers. I also followed the demon like a fool.
Zhang Yizheng took Lan Lan back to drive back, and only drove less than a hundred kilometers away. He felt the tremor, and subconsciously felt that it should be the disaster Lan Lan said. Step on the accelerator, hoping to run as far away from the Ruzhou base as possible.However, not long after, a huge coercion descended, making his mind go blank, and when he came back to his senses, the car had already crashed into the mutated plants on the side of the road.
And those mutated plants didn't know what was going on, they didn't attack as usual, and they were lucky, otherwise Zhang Yi would suffer a loss if he couldn't help but lose his mind at that time.Zhang Yi was full of panic, reversed the car on the road, did not dare to drive again, got out of the car, and looked in the direction of Ruzhou.
Not only him, Nan Shao who went back to meet them, Zhang Ruiyang and Zhao Xin who stayed at home obediently, those who rested and worked in the base, those who hunted zombies and mutated creatures outside the base, and even some people who were close to the imperial capital People in other bases stood in the house or in the open space at this moment and looked up at the sky.
I saw that the dark clouds that had been as calm as dead since the end of the world began to stir, as if being stirred by a big spoon, from slow to fast, and finally formed a huge vortex, which made people dizzy, but It is difficult to look back, and unspeakable fear grows in my heart. I vaguely feel that there is a monster that can swallow the whole world hidden in the vortex. If it appears, no one can resist it.
People were terrified, but their feet seemed to be nailed in place, unable to move an inch, they could only stand there, waiting for the end to come.
The vortex turned faster and faster, and suddenly a clear bang sounded in people's hearts, as if a balloon had been punctured by something, but this sound was as loud as the sound of heaven and earth, but it was inaudible.
A huge crystal-clear stone pillar appeared in the vortex, and then slowly descended, as if it was afraid that it would fall too soon, and the whole world would be broken, and it seemed that some force was trying its best to fight against it, trying to prevent its coming, But he was forced to retreat step by step.
With the appearance of the stone pillar, a great fear instantly crushed all living beings on the ground. Whether it was human beings, mutant creatures, or zombies, they couldn't help being silent. The closer they were, the deeper the feeling. And if they are looking for a safe place in a hurry, when they arrive at the imperial capital, people can no longer resist the fear, and have to sit or kneel on the ground, and some even collapse on the ground, pouring urine and feces.Even the mutated plants were trembling, shrinking themselves as much as possible.
At the same time, the sick ghost who was still in Hope Base walked out of the house and stood in the yard, his eyes fell on the direction that caused the vision, and he counted quickly with his fingers.Because of the distance, the horrifying scene cannot be seen from here, and the pressure felt by people is much less. It is only regarded as an earthquake somewhere, and what should they do besides lamenting the apocalypse? .
After a long time, the sick ghost stopped to calculate, heaved a long sigh, there was a trace of solemnity in his eyes, and there was more helplessness.
On the other hand, people in the base of the imperial capital, and even within a radius of [-] kilometers from where the phenomenon occurred, can only watch the cylindrical boulder mountain slowly fall and press down on the ground, but the boulder mountain seen from different directions Shape varies.The tip of one side is covered with round after round of arc-shaped deep ravines, while the opposite side is as smooth as a mirror at the same position, with a faint pink luster, like a fine crystal ore. As for the other two sides, it is different.
"It's a finger..." Nan Shao had landed on the ground before, standing alone in a wilderness, muttering to himself, his voice trembling slightly.This scene was so familiar to him, it had happened before when he faced Lin An in Baixia base, but Zhang Yi and others were all crushed to powder at that time, but now it happened in Ruzhou above the base.He finally understood why Lan Lan said they were all dead.
Not only him, but also many people with firm minds who could barely resist the deterrence that was almost pressed into the bones, tried hard to see the huge rock mountain that fell from the sky, and after subconsciously shrinking it, they came out with the following Shao's same conclusion.Those circles of ravines are clearly human fingerprints!
"That...that direction seems to be Ruzhou..." Some people finally noticed this.
Snapped!Song Ting broke the armrest of the chair he was sitting on.He, Song Yan, Liu Qiye, Shi Hao and others sat in place all the time.Through the window, they can also see the vision of the distant sky.He was originally the head of the Ruzhou base, so he was naturally more sensitive to that direction than others, plus the news from Shen Chi before... But even if his eyes are open at this moment, it is difficult for him to even get up, so why? When talking about other things, he could only stare at the falling finger mountain without blinking, trying to figure out how far it fell from the base, how long Shen had been late, and whether he had passed on the order. How many people can escape, the corners of the eyes are soaked with blood, and they don't know it.
Song Yan was even more flustered. If it wasn't for being unable to move now, he might have jumped up and rushed directly to Ruzhou.One must know that Li Muran sent Shen Chi there not long ago, so he doesn't know if he has returned.
Whether it was fear or curiosity, worry or prayer, the finger mountain fell to the ground at an extremely stable, seemingly slow, but visible speed without being affected in the slightest.
boom!After a suffocating 5 minutes as long as a century, the ground trembled for a while, as if something had dusted it and gently scraped it, but there was a shock wave-like coercion like Like an undercurrent, the tremor spread around the point where the Finger Mountain fell. It did not damage the buildings, but caused all the creatures that came into contact with it to be slightly or severely injured.Although the imperial capital is far away, people still feel suffocated inside, almost out of breath.
Even though it has landed, the top of Zhishan Mountain is still hidden in the stratus clouds, barely visible.
But just when everyone thought that everything was coming to an end, and the entire Hua Kingdom would be divided into two halves by a magical huge finger-shaped mountain range that descended from the sky, the finger mountain moved slightly and rose slowly again. His eyes retracted into the clouds and disappeared.
After another 2 minutes, a cry of a young child broke the deathly silence, as if some kind of signal, the whole base instantly came to life, screams of fear, terrified crying and cursing, and mindless arguments The sound came a step behind like a delayed clock.
Song Ting's face was pale, and the ominous cloud in his heart did not dissipate with Zhishan's departure, but became heavier. He took out a cigarette and lit it twice with trembling hands but failed to ignite it. When Song Yan was about to help him, But he squeezed the cigarette into his palm and kneaded it into a ball, looked up at the guard, and gave an order: "Lao Qi, go prepare the car and go back to Ruzhou."
At the same time, Liu Chenghan announced that the meeting will be postponed, and the specific time will be notified later.
The participants couldn't wait to leave, and they all went back to check the situation in person.Naturally, the Imperial Capital Base was no exception, and all the elders were dispatched.
-
When the coercion dissipated and the sky returned to its usual calm, Zhang Yi still knelt on the muddy and rutted snow, his face pale, and he didn't recover for a long time.He is located near Ruzhou, so it is a great fortune not to be affected, but it is impossible to stand firm.
When Nan Shao came to find him, seeing him like this, he was almost scared to death. He didn't let go until he was sure that he was just not slowing down and was not injured.
"Go...go to Ruzhou to see...see..." Sensing warmth coming from him, Zhang Yi finally came back to his senses and found that it was Nan Shao who pressed his face into his arms.He wanted to laugh, but found that he couldn't even move the corners of his mouth, so he had to give up.When he spoke, his voice trembled.At that time, he wondered if he was shaking all over his body.
He is afraid.Yes, he was afraid, not of the finger, but of his own powerlessness and despair.
From now on, there is no doubt about what the sick ghost said in the past.
In fact, it wasn't just him. He once heard the story of Qin Xuan from a sick ghost and regarded it as crazy. When the Ruzhou base was evacuated, Leng Fengchen, who only felt the absurdity in his heart and wanted to watch the excitement, was also hiding in the hotel room and shivering at this time, even ignoring the fact that the imperial capital was going to Ruzhou to check the situation.
it is true!it is true!At that moment, he found that his worldview, which had been built very solidly, collapsed.What's even more frightening is that he discovered that in front of the new world, the strength he was once proud of was so small and fragile that it was not even as good as a spider's silk.
This kind of scene was played out on countless people in the imperial capital and other places near Ruzhou.I don't know how many people's pride has been broken, let alone how many people have despaired and abandoned themselves because of this.
In the place where Zhang Yi and the others lived, the two children were standing side by side in front of the window, looking at the sky where Zhishan appeared before.
Zhao Xin was screaming all the time, Zhang Ruiyang tried to stop it at first, but couldn't stop it at all, and then he blocked his ears and screamed.
Zhao Xin stopped when his voice became hoarse, but he still kept screaming.
Zhang Ruiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but found that he was very hungry.So he went to cook noodles for the two of them, and took another handful of crystal nuclei to feed him, still shoving his head under his stomach, beeping tremblingly, and comforted him for a while.
"Are you scared? I'm scared too. But screaming is useless, it only hurts my throat." While eating noodles, Zhang Ruiyang said to Zhao Xin.He was terrified at first, but when Zhao Xin yelled at him like that, his ears still seemed to be buzzing, so he couldn't remember being afraid.
"It's really scary. I don't know if such a big stick is used by Monkey King. Yes, it must be Monkey King's golden cudgel." Zhao Xin ignored him, and Zhang Ruiyang was not angry. He got used to it and just sat there alone. Talk to yourself.
"No, it's fingers." At this moment, Zhao Xin, who hadn't heard him speak since we met, suddenly spoke. His voice was hoarse, but he could clearly hear what he was saying.
"Really? Who has such big fingers? Then his body must be very big, and he can crush the earth with one foot." Zhang Ruiyang didn't think it was strange, but was very surprised by what he said.
"Fool." Zhao Xin said in a dazed tone after eating his noodles, his eyes still staring out of the window.
"I'm not stupid." Zhang Ruiyang was not convinced.
"...Fool!" Zhao Xin originally wanted to explain why Zhang Ruiyang was stupid, but after thinking about it, he found that he had to say a lot, so he gave up again, and finally expressed his meaning in two words.
"..." Zhang Ruiyang was a little annoyed, picked up the bowl, kicked the small wooden stool and sat down next to Dudu, not wanting to pay attention to this, not talking all day, but screaming so that people's ears hurt, and now he is still scolding his little brother.
If he didn't speak, it was even more impossible for Zhao Xin to speak again, so the room became quiet again.
But it didn't take long before Zhang Ruiyang forgot about it, turned his eyes to the door, and sighed: "Dad, why haven't they come back yet? I don't know if they were scared."
Hearing the word father, Zhao Xin couldn't help but hugged the puppy puppet that he hadn't put down while eating, and didn't answer.
-
A day later, Song Ting's motorcade returned to Ruzhou Base.Followed by his convoy, and the heads of various bases.
There were many people and cars at the scene, but it was silent.Silently treating the wounded, silently picking up the corpses, silently looking for their relatives and friends among the survivors... Intense grief and despair filled the air, as if a layer of smog had covered the originally unclear sky.
Before the car stopped, Song Ting had already seen what he wanted to see. He couldn't help spitting out blood, and his complexion suddenly became extremely gray.
The original majestic metal castle of the Ruzhou Base has disappeared at this time, replaced by a huge empty flat land as smooth as a mirror.On this flat ground, there are no bricks, no metal residues, let alone human flesh and clothing residues, as if these things did not exist at all, as if there was nothing here in the first place.
"When I took people away four days ago, this place was full of people seeing off..." Song Ting murmured.
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a shrill roar, and a figure rushed out from behind, knelt down in front of the ruins, buried his head on the ground, crying like a lone wolf abandoned by the clan.
The original death-like silence was broken, and countless people staying around looked over.
Song Ting waved away Song Yan and the guards who surrounded him because they were worried about him, and pushed twice before opening the car door. When he got out of the car, he staggered. If it wasn't for Song Yan's sharp eyesight and quick hands, he might have fallen down.He stubbornly pushed away Song Yan's hand, walked forward staggeringly, and finally knelt down next to the crying soldier with a plop, his body bent into a ball, as if he had aged 20 years suddenly.
When he knelt, many people knelt down one after another, including the accompanying soldiers, survivors of the Ruzhou base who escaped unharmed because they went hunting, and base personnel who survived the emergency evacuation operation yesterday. .Some people stood up straight, but their faces were covered with tears.At this time, even the people at the Imperial Capital Base, which has been in a semi-competitive and semi-hostile state with Ruzhou Base, can't feel the slightest excitement because of the destruction of their old opponent, and some are only deeply trembling and fearful.
Because the existence that caused all this has far exceeded their cognition, it is the power of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods that humans will never be able to touch. Today it can wipe away the existence of Ruzhou Base like dust, so it is likely to be the same tomorrow. The Imperial Capital Base will be erased like this. In the face of this heaven-defying existence that cannot be resisted and cannot communicate, the Imperial Capital Base and Ruzhou Base are like grasshoppers on the same rope. How stupid would be to be happy for the disappearance of the same kind.
"Why? Did I do something wrong?" Song Ting raised his head, his eyes fell to the sky, his voice was deep and desolate, full of confusion, puzzlement, accusation and self-doubt.
"Old Song, the Imperial Capital Base is still your home, and you are welcome to come back anytime." At this time, Liu Chenghan walked over and patted him on the shoulder, with the sadness of a dead rabbit and a fox in his voice.What kind of ambition, what you fight for, is just a joke in the face of a powerful enemy who can crush them to nothing with a single finger.No, to say that the other party is an enemy is to raise their own status.
Song Ting's shoulders tensed instantly when he was touched, he turned his head suddenly, mixed with hatred, his angry and sad face was so ferocious that Liu Chenghan subconsciously took a step back.Song Ting didn't pay attention to Liu Chenghan, but turned to his chief guard and said, "Gather the survivors and leave tomorrow. Follow me to Yunzhou and merge into the Hope Base."
Liu Chenghan sighed and didn't feel too annoyed. He patted Song Ting on the shoulder twice, said to take care, and led the people away.It would be a lie to say that he wasn't envious of Song Ting's subordinates, but after such an experience, he didn't have the desire to force it anymore.
As soon as he left, except for a few base leaders who wanted to stay and help, everyone else also left.And in the distance, where other people could not detect, several elders of Wu Zong came quietly, and then left quietly.It's just that when they left, everyone's backs seemed to be a lot hunched.
"How many people have been evacuated?" Until this time, Song Ting managed to calm down and asked.
The highest position surviving at the scene was a regiment leader, Teng Ying's subordinate.At that time, because Teng Yingmo couldn't meet the younger brother's request, they originally wanted to perfunctory, so they became the first team to leave the base, and fortunately the whole team was saved.
When Song Ting arrived, he ran over while he was busy, and stood by the side waiting to report the situation.
"Reporting to the chief, there are a total of 150 people in our base. The chief took away 1000 or [-] people. There are more than [-] people who went out to hunt and do missions. There are [-]... more than [-] people in the base." Here, the regiment leader choked up for a moment, then quickly stopped, and continued to report: "From the base...download..."
"Get to the point!" Song Ting roared. Hearing the number, he felt his heart bleed.Why didn't he know that it would take at most an hour from the time the order was issued to when the disaster occurred.This still does not exclude the time spent by Shen Chi on the road and issuing orders.
"Yes!" The head of the group answered with a loud roar, his voice changed, "Report, it's 330... [-] and six people... ah..." When he said this number, the head finally endured. I couldn't help but squatted on the ground and cried loudly, the voice was very ugly.
If it was normal, seeing a big man crying like this, I don't know how many people would have to laugh. At this time, not only did no one laugh, but many people also started crying.
Fifteen thousand, 330 six people... Song Ting bent down and patted the head of the group on the back, then sighed, and turned to the survivors who had already slept in the wild overnight.
Fifteen thousand, three hundred and thirty-six people, thousands more than he expected.There are two entrances and exits in the base. Even if his people are well-trained, without any preparations, 330 people can be evacuated in less than an hour. The extra 1 people will be picked up. here.
But he didn't know that if Zhang Yi hadn't contacted Teng Jin directly, even 1 people would not be able to withdraw.As for why so many people stayed in the base in broad daylight, he understood.Because their base has developed a new type of weapon, they just changed their gear in the past few days, and most of them stayed at the base, presumably to adapt to the newly acquired weapon.
Thinking of this, his heart ached so much that he could hardly stand up.
"Where's Shen Chi? Where's Li Muran? Have you seen them?" Song Yan, who had already glanced at the people present, couldn't help it any longer, and asked anxiously.
The head of the regiment cried so sadly that he didn't hear it at all.Someone next to him answered.
"Is Li Muran that girl? She was with Leader Shen, but Shen Chi and Teng Ying and the other leaders insisted on evacuating...they...haven't seen them until now..." Before he could finish speaking, the man He also cried with a wow sound.This is a messenger who escaped because he left the base to deliver orders to the team that evacuated first.Looking back afterwards, he vaguely felt that this was the way the leaders gave him to survive.
Hearing this, Song Yan felt that his scalp was about to explode.He really wanted to grab the soldier by the collar and ask him if he was lying, but he found himself so weak that he couldn't even lift his arms.
"Muran's ability will save lives in a critical moment. Maybe it's okay, but I don't know where he teleported to." At this moment, Zhang Yi's voice sounded.
He and Nan Shao came to help yesterday, and they didn't sleep all night. They were bearded, their eyes were black, and they were very haggard.Nan Shao is not much better than him.
In addition to the entire Ruzhou base being wiped out yesterday, as well as the people within five kilometers around Ruzhou who were either killed or injured, they had to compete with the god of death.They didn't see Teng Jin, Shen Chi, or Li Muran, they were equally anxious.
Song Yan's Adam's apple rolled up and down. Thinking of Li Muran's miraculous ability, his body finally felt a little bit of consciousness, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, they will be fine." Then he followed the busy rescue work, not allowing Think about it yourself.
It wasn't until Shen Chi, Teng Jin and others showed up with Li Muran that the mask he had been holding up was broken, and he hugged the unconscious person tightly into his arms, without raising his head for a long time.
From Shen Chi's mouth, they learned what happened.
There are eight of them in total, and five of them are high-level leaders of the base. They were originally in their own offices, stubbornly preparing to stay until the end. An excuse to gather people together.
Shen Chi originally didn't allow Li Muran to stay, but this girl was just as stubborn as them, he wanted to knock her out and let her be taken away from the base, who knew she was still guarding him so that he couldn't do anything.I was in a hurry, and when I heard her suggestion, I understood her thoughts.Even if he doesn't think about his own safety, he can't cut off other people's lives.
As for Teng Jin, that is needless to say.He originally stayed for the second sister, if he could bring the second sister out alive, there was nothing he couldn't agree to.
Therefore, when disaster struck, they were able to escape with Li Muran's supernatural power.
It's just that they are under the greatest pressure, not to mention using supernatural powers, but they are barely able to move a finger.Li Muran teleported them out with them, but he paid a huge price.
Twenty kilometers.They were moved to a residential house twenty kilometers away. As soon as they arrived, Li Muran fainted from ear and nose bleeding, and the others were also severely injured.
If they weren't worried about Li Muran's situation, they might still be lying dead in place at this time.
Seeing that several able-bodied men survived, Song Ting was of course happy, but when his eyes fell on the unconscious Li Muran, he couldn't help showing guilt and worry, and hurried to get someone to come for treatment.
It was the same mental power as Lan Lan who was seriously injured, Nan Shao couldn't cure it, and neither could other healing system users.
Regarding this result, Song Yan was very calm.Perhaps it was because he thought Li Muran was dead, but now he found that he hadn't lost her, so there was nothing unacceptable about other things.
"I'm going to ask the sick ghost," he said.After finishing speaking, regardless of what other people think, he turned into a beast body on the spot and left with Li Muran on his back.
Song Yan left.Song Ting, who was planning to take people away immediately, could only stay temporarily, waiting for the restart of the base's summit meeting.He wanted to know, in the face of such an enemy, whether Wu Zong would continue to fight to seize power, or if there was any good way to deal with it.
As for Zhang Yi and the others, because Yang Yang is still at the base of the imperial capital, even if he wants to leave, he has to go back to pick up the people before leaving, so they can't leave for a while, so they simply stay to help.
There are also Liu Qiye and others who are also helping. They should be the most shocked this time, because they didn't know anything about the origin of the end of the world and the existence of Qin Xuan.Whether it was Song Ting or Wu Zong's people, they knew something about it, but they were just half-believing and skeptical.
After going through such a fright, many base leaders returned to their hearts like swords, but also wanted to find a way to deal with unknown and terrifying enemies through the restarted summit meeting. Even Wu Zong's people were greatly affected and needed time to recover. Disturbed mood.Although the meeting was delayed again and again, and the leaders of various places felt anxious about it, but no one complained, because everyone needed time to calm down and re-examine the future development plans of their own bases.
And on the fifth day after the disaster, the Protestant leader who came with the head of the Yunzhou base walked into the gate of Wuzong Mountain.The next day, news finally came from the office of the head of the imperial base, but it had nothing to do with the meeting, but asked all the heads of the base to go to Wuzong.
"That was just the beginning, and people's mentality hasn't changed yet..." Although Song Ting was a little absent-minded, he subconsciously retorted.
"It is still necessary to distinguish between high and low status, otherwise, who would want to fight with mutant creatures." At this time, someone spoke up and clearly supported Liu Chenghan.
Song Ting looked over, without any surprise or anger.Judging from the information received, this person was originally close to the imperial capital, and it was normal for him to help speak.
As soon as he opened his mouth, several base leaders who wanted to establish a good relationship with the imperial capital echoed.There are also some neutral people who remain silent, obviously not ready to express their attitude easily until the real purpose of the imperial capital is determined.
"My base treats the awakened and the non-awakened in the same way, regardless of high or low, just do their best, and everyone is very motivated." As a brother, Song Yan must unconditionally support his elder brother, not to mention that he does not approve of people graded.
"It's the same in my place." Liu Qiye knocked on his cigarette stick, and said slowly, "In the end, we are all human beings, and it's too chilling to divide the high and low, and it's not good for unity. .”
"The two subordinates only have 2000 people. How can the management method be applied to a large base with tens of thousands of people..." The person who spoke before said with a smile. Tens of thousands of people have built the base, and none of them are human beings, and it is easy to hear what he is saying.He was alluding to the fact that Song Yan and Liu Qiye brought too few people, so they were not qualified to speak here.
Both Song Yan and Liu Qiye were not easily provoked by strangers, and they didn't react too much after hearing it, but Shi Hao said lightly: "Everyone in Baixia is equal, and I haven't seen anyone complain."
The man was choked.Baixia is not an ordinary small base, but it can stand side by side with the imperial capital Ruzhou and other bases.Several other base leaders who stood on the same front as him hurriedly chimed in, using examples from their own bases to prove that it is correct to separate the status of the awakened and the non-awakened.
As a result, everyone was taken to a crooked building before they could figure out the real purpose of the imperial capital base.Liu Chenghan didn't stop him either, apparently he wanted to roughly determine everyone's thoughts through this method.Song Ting was even less anxious. His original intention was to disrupt the meeting and prevent the Imperial Capital Base from succeeding. What's more, he was still a little restless at this time, and he didn't bother to talk any more.
Just as they were arguing, an indescribable sense of oppression suddenly emerged in everyone's hearts, as if the thick clouds in the sky were pressing down, making them stop their mouths unconsciously.The sudden silence made everyone a little confused. Just when someone wanted to speak again, his whole body shook, dizzy and nauseated, as if the whole world was shaking.
"No, earthquake!" Someone exclaimed.
Everyone at the scene reacted very quickly and didn't shout too much. They jumped up and ran outside the hotel.However, the people who ran out first were stunned, looking at the distant sky stupidly, so that the people who didn't come out behind were blocked, and couldn't help cursing their mothers. I also followed the demon like a fool.
Zhang Yizheng took Lan Lan back to drive back, and only drove less than a hundred kilometers away. He felt the tremor, and subconsciously felt that it should be the disaster Lan Lan said. Step on the accelerator, hoping to run as far away from the Ruzhou base as possible.However, not long after, a huge coercion descended, making his mind go blank, and when he came back to his senses, the car had already crashed into the mutated plants on the side of the road.
And those mutated plants didn't know what was going on, they didn't attack as usual, and they were lucky, otherwise Zhang Yi would suffer a loss if he couldn't help but lose his mind at that time.Zhang Yi was full of panic, reversed the car on the road, did not dare to drive again, got out of the car, and looked in the direction of Ruzhou.
Not only him, Nan Shao who went back to meet them, Zhang Ruiyang and Zhao Xin who stayed at home obediently, those who rested and worked in the base, those who hunted zombies and mutated creatures outside the base, and even some people who were close to the imperial capital People in other bases stood in the house or in the open space at this moment and looked up at the sky.
I saw that the dark clouds that had been as calm as dead since the end of the world began to stir, as if being stirred by a big spoon, from slow to fast, and finally formed a huge vortex, which made people dizzy, but It is difficult to look back, and unspeakable fear grows in my heart. I vaguely feel that there is a monster that can swallow the whole world hidden in the vortex. If it appears, no one can resist it.
People were terrified, but their feet seemed to be nailed in place, unable to move an inch, they could only stand there, waiting for the end to come.
The vortex turned faster and faster, and suddenly a clear bang sounded in people's hearts, as if a balloon had been punctured by something, but this sound was as loud as the sound of heaven and earth, but it was inaudible.
A huge crystal-clear stone pillar appeared in the vortex, and then slowly descended, as if it was afraid that it would fall too soon, and the whole world would be broken, and it seemed that some force was trying its best to fight against it, trying to prevent its coming, But he was forced to retreat step by step.
With the appearance of the stone pillar, a great fear instantly crushed all living beings on the ground. Whether it was human beings, mutant creatures, or zombies, they couldn't help being silent. The closer they were, the deeper the feeling. And if they are looking for a safe place in a hurry, when they arrive at the imperial capital, people can no longer resist the fear, and have to sit or kneel on the ground, and some even collapse on the ground, pouring urine and feces.Even the mutated plants were trembling, shrinking themselves as much as possible.
At the same time, the sick ghost who was still in Hope Base walked out of the house and stood in the yard, his eyes fell on the direction that caused the vision, and he counted quickly with his fingers.Because of the distance, the horrifying scene cannot be seen from here, and the pressure felt by people is much less. It is only regarded as an earthquake somewhere, and what should they do besides lamenting the apocalypse? .
After a long time, the sick ghost stopped to calculate, heaved a long sigh, there was a trace of solemnity in his eyes, and there was more helplessness.
On the other hand, people in the base of the imperial capital, and even within a radius of [-] kilometers from where the phenomenon occurred, can only watch the cylindrical boulder mountain slowly fall and press down on the ground, but the boulder mountain seen from different directions Shape varies.The tip of one side is covered with round after round of arc-shaped deep ravines, while the opposite side is as smooth as a mirror at the same position, with a faint pink luster, like a fine crystal ore. As for the other two sides, it is different.
"It's a finger..." Nan Shao had landed on the ground before, standing alone in a wilderness, muttering to himself, his voice trembling slightly.This scene was so familiar to him, it had happened before when he faced Lin An in Baixia base, but Zhang Yi and others were all crushed to powder at that time, but now it happened in Ruzhou above the base.He finally understood why Lan Lan said they were all dead.
Not only him, but also many people with firm minds who could barely resist the deterrence that was almost pressed into the bones, tried hard to see the huge rock mountain that fell from the sky, and after subconsciously shrinking it, they came out with the following Shao's same conclusion.Those circles of ravines are clearly human fingerprints!
"That...that direction seems to be Ruzhou..." Some people finally noticed this.
Snapped!Song Ting broke the armrest of the chair he was sitting on.He, Song Yan, Liu Qiye, Shi Hao and others sat in place all the time.Through the window, they can also see the vision of the distant sky.He was originally the head of the Ruzhou base, so he was naturally more sensitive to that direction than others, plus the news from Shen Chi before... But even if his eyes are open at this moment, it is difficult for him to even get up, so why? When talking about other things, he could only stare at the falling finger mountain without blinking, trying to figure out how far it fell from the base, how long Shen had been late, and whether he had passed on the order. How many people can escape, the corners of the eyes are soaked with blood, and they don't know it.
Song Yan was even more flustered. If it wasn't for being unable to move now, he might have jumped up and rushed directly to Ruzhou.One must know that Li Muran sent Shen Chi there not long ago, so he doesn't know if he has returned.
Whether it was fear or curiosity, worry or prayer, the finger mountain fell to the ground at an extremely stable, seemingly slow, but visible speed without being affected in the slightest.
boom!After a suffocating 5 minutes as long as a century, the ground trembled for a while, as if something had dusted it and gently scraped it, but there was a shock wave-like coercion like Like an undercurrent, the tremor spread around the point where the Finger Mountain fell. It did not damage the buildings, but caused all the creatures that came into contact with it to be slightly or severely injured.Although the imperial capital is far away, people still feel suffocated inside, almost out of breath.
Even though it has landed, the top of Zhishan Mountain is still hidden in the stratus clouds, barely visible.
But just when everyone thought that everything was coming to an end, and the entire Hua Kingdom would be divided into two halves by a magical huge finger-shaped mountain range that descended from the sky, the finger mountain moved slightly and rose slowly again. His eyes retracted into the clouds and disappeared.
After another 2 minutes, a cry of a young child broke the deathly silence, as if some kind of signal, the whole base instantly came to life, screams of fear, terrified crying and cursing, and mindless arguments The sound came a step behind like a delayed clock.
Song Ting's face was pale, and the ominous cloud in his heart did not dissipate with Zhishan's departure, but became heavier. He took out a cigarette and lit it twice with trembling hands but failed to ignite it. When Song Yan was about to help him, But he squeezed the cigarette into his palm and kneaded it into a ball, looked up at the guard, and gave an order: "Lao Qi, go prepare the car and go back to Ruzhou."
At the same time, Liu Chenghan announced that the meeting will be postponed, and the specific time will be notified later.
The participants couldn't wait to leave, and they all went back to check the situation in person.Naturally, the Imperial Capital Base was no exception, and all the elders were dispatched.
-
When the coercion dissipated and the sky returned to its usual calm, Zhang Yi still knelt on the muddy and rutted snow, his face pale, and he didn't recover for a long time.He is located near Ruzhou, so it is a great fortune not to be affected, but it is impossible to stand firm.
When Nan Shao came to find him, seeing him like this, he was almost scared to death. He didn't let go until he was sure that he was just not slowing down and was not injured.
"Go...go to Ruzhou to see...see..." Sensing warmth coming from him, Zhang Yi finally came back to his senses and found that it was Nan Shao who pressed his face into his arms.He wanted to laugh, but found that he couldn't even move the corners of his mouth, so he had to give up.When he spoke, his voice trembled.At that time, he wondered if he was shaking all over his body.
He is afraid.Yes, he was afraid, not of the finger, but of his own powerlessness and despair.
From now on, there is no doubt about what the sick ghost said in the past.
In fact, it wasn't just him. He once heard the story of Qin Xuan from a sick ghost and regarded it as crazy. When the Ruzhou base was evacuated, Leng Fengchen, who only felt the absurdity in his heart and wanted to watch the excitement, was also hiding in the hotel room and shivering at this time, even ignoring the fact that the imperial capital was going to Ruzhou to check the situation.
it is true!it is true!At that moment, he found that his worldview, which had been built very solidly, collapsed.What's even more frightening is that he discovered that in front of the new world, the strength he was once proud of was so small and fragile that it was not even as good as a spider's silk.
This kind of scene was played out on countless people in the imperial capital and other places near Ruzhou.I don't know how many people's pride has been broken, let alone how many people have despaired and abandoned themselves because of this.
In the place where Zhang Yi and the others lived, the two children were standing side by side in front of the window, looking at the sky where Zhishan appeared before.
Zhao Xin was screaming all the time, Zhang Ruiyang tried to stop it at first, but couldn't stop it at all, and then he blocked his ears and screamed.
Zhao Xin stopped when his voice became hoarse, but he still kept screaming.
Zhang Ruiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but found that he was very hungry.So he went to cook noodles for the two of them, and took another handful of crystal nuclei to feed him, still shoving his head under his stomach, beeping tremblingly, and comforted him for a while.
"Are you scared? I'm scared too. But screaming is useless, it only hurts my throat." While eating noodles, Zhang Ruiyang said to Zhao Xin.He was terrified at first, but when Zhao Xin yelled at him like that, his ears still seemed to be buzzing, so he couldn't remember being afraid.
"It's really scary. I don't know if such a big stick is used by Monkey King. Yes, it must be Monkey King's golden cudgel." Zhao Xin ignored him, and Zhang Ruiyang was not angry. He got used to it and just sat there alone. Talk to yourself.
"No, it's fingers." At this moment, Zhao Xin, who hadn't heard him speak since we met, suddenly spoke. His voice was hoarse, but he could clearly hear what he was saying.
"Really? Who has such big fingers? Then his body must be very big, and he can crush the earth with one foot." Zhang Ruiyang didn't think it was strange, but was very surprised by what he said.
"Fool." Zhao Xin said in a dazed tone after eating his noodles, his eyes still staring out of the window.
"I'm not stupid." Zhang Ruiyang was not convinced.
"...Fool!" Zhao Xin originally wanted to explain why Zhang Ruiyang was stupid, but after thinking about it, he found that he had to say a lot, so he gave up again, and finally expressed his meaning in two words.
"..." Zhang Ruiyang was a little annoyed, picked up the bowl, kicked the small wooden stool and sat down next to Dudu, not wanting to pay attention to this, not talking all day, but screaming so that people's ears hurt, and now he is still scolding his little brother.
If he didn't speak, it was even more impossible for Zhao Xin to speak again, so the room became quiet again.
But it didn't take long before Zhang Ruiyang forgot about it, turned his eyes to the door, and sighed: "Dad, why haven't they come back yet? I don't know if they were scared."
Hearing the word father, Zhao Xin couldn't help but hugged the puppy puppet that he hadn't put down while eating, and didn't answer.
-
A day later, Song Ting's motorcade returned to Ruzhou Base.Followed by his convoy, and the heads of various bases.
There were many people and cars at the scene, but it was silent.Silently treating the wounded, silently picking up the corpses, silently looking for their relatives and friends among the survivors... Intense grief and despair filled the air, as if a layer of smog had covered the originally unclear sky.
Before the car stopped, Song Ting had already seen what he wanted to see. He couldn't help spitting out blood, and his complexion suddenly became extremely gray.
The original majestic metal castle of the Ruzhou Base has disappeared at this time, replaced by a huge empty flat land as smooth as a mirror.On this flat ground, there are no bricks, no metal residues, let alone human flesh and clothing residues, as if these things did not exist at all, as if there was nothing here in the first place.
"When I took people away four days ago, this place was full of people seeing off..." Song Ting murmured.
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a shrill roar, and a figure rushed out from behind, knelt down in front of the ruins, buried his head on the ground, crying like a lone wolf abandoned by the clan.
The original death-like silence was broken, and countless people staying around looked over.
Song Ting waved away Song Yan and the guards who surrounded him because they were worried about him, and pushed twice before opening the car door. When he got out of the car, he staggered. If it wasn't for Song Yan's sharp eyesight and quick hands, he might have fallen down.He stubbornly pushed away Song Yan's hand, walked forward staggeringly, and finally knelt down next to the crying soldier with a plop, his body bent into a ball, as if he had aged 20 years suddenly.
When he knelt, many people knelt down one after another, including the accompanying soldiers, survivors of the Ruzhou base who escaped unharmed because they went hunting, and base personnel who survived the emergency evacuation operation yesterday. .Some people stood up straight, but their faces were covered with tears.At this time, even the people at the Imperial Capital Base, which has been in a semi-competitive and semi-hostile state with Ruzhou Base, can't feel the slightest excitement because of the destruction of their old opponent, and some are only deeply trembling and fearful.
Because the existence that caused all this has far exceeded their cognition, it is the power of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods that humans will never be able to touch. Today it can wipe away the existence of Ruzhou Base like dust, so it is likely to be the same tomorrow. The Imperial Capital Base will be erased like this. In the face of this heaven-defying existence that cannot be resisted and cannot communicate, the Imperial Capital Base and Ruzhou Base are like grasshoppers on the same rope. How stupid would be to be happy for the disappearance of the same kind.
"Why? Did I do something wrong?" Song Ting raised his head, his eyes fell to the sky, his voice was deep and desolate, full of confusion, puzzlement, accusation and self-doubt.
"Old Song, the Imperial Capital Base is still your home, and you are welcome to come back anytime." At this time, Liu Chenghan walked over and patted him on the shoulder, with the sadness of a dead rabbit and a fox in his voice.What kind of ambition, what you fight for, is just a joke in the face of a powerful enemy who can crush them to nothing with a single finger.No, to say that the other party is an enemy is to raise their own status.
Song Ting's shoulders tensed instantly when he was touched, he turned his head suddenly, mixed with hatred, his angry and sad face was so ferocious that Liu Chenghan subconsciously took a step back.Song Ting didn't pay attention to Liu Chenghan, but turned to his chief guard and said, "Gather the survivors and leave tomorrow. Follow me to Yunzhou and merge into the Hope Base."
Liu Chenghan sighed and didn't feel too annoyed. He patted Song Ting on the shoulder twice, said to take care, and led the people away.It would be a lie to say that he wasn't envious of Song Ting's subordinates, but after such an experience, he didn't have the desire to force it anymore.
As soon as he left, except for a few base leaders who wanted to stay and help, everyone else also left.And in the distance, where other people could not detect, several elders of Wu Zong came quietly, and then left quietly.It's just that when they left, everyone's backs seemed to be a lot hunched.
"How many people have been evacuated?" Until this time, Song Ting managed to calm down and asked.
The highest position surviving at the scene was a regiment leader, Teng Ying's subordinate.At that time, because Teng Yingmo couldn't meet the younger brother's request, they originally wanted to perfunctory, so they became the first team to leave the base, and fortunately the whole team was saved.
When Song Ting arrived, he ran over while he was busy, and stood by the side waiting to report the situation.
"Reporting to the chief, there are a total of 150 people in our base. The chief took away 1000 or [-] people. There are more than [-] people who went out to hunt and do missions. There are [-]... more than [-] people in the base." Here, the regiment leader choked up for a moment, then quickly stopped, and continued to report: "From the base...download..."
"Get to the point!" Song Ting roared. Hearing the number, he felt his heart bleed.Why didn't he know that it would take at most an hour from the time the order was issued to when the disaster occurred.This still does not exclude the time spent by Shen Chi on the road and issuing orders.
"Yes!" The head of the group answered with a loud roar, his voice changed, "Report, it's 330... [-] and six people... ah..." When he said this number, the head finally endured. I couldn't help but squatted on the ground and cried loudly, the voice was very ugly.
If it was normal, seeing a big man crying like this, I don't know how many people would have to laugh. At this time, not only did no one laugh, but many people also started crying.
Fifteen thousand, 330 six people... Song Ting bent down and patted the head of the group on the back, then sighed, and turned to the survivors who had already slept in the wild overnight.
Fifteen thousand, three hundred and thirty-six people, thousands more than he expected.There are two entrances and exits in the base. Even if his people are well-trained, without any preparations, 330 people can be evacuated in less than an hour. The extra 1 people will be picked up. here.
But he didn't know that if Zhang Yi hadn't contacted Teng Jin directly, even 1 people would not be able to withdraw.As for why so many people stayed in the base in broad daylight, he understood.Because their base has developed a new type of weapon, they just changed their gear in the past few days, and most of them stayed at the base, presumably to adapt to the newly acquired weapon.
Thinking of this, his heart ached so much that he could hardly stand up.
"Where's Shen Chi? Where's Li Muran? Have you seen them?" Song Yan, who had already glanced at the people present, couldn't help it any longer, and asked anxiously.
The head of the regiment cried so sadly that he didn't hear it at all.Someone next to him answered.
"Is Li Muran that girl? She was with Leader Shen, but Shen Chi and Teng Ying and the other leaders insisted on evacuating...they...haven't seen them until now..." Before he could finish speaking, the man He also cried with a wow sound.This is a messenger who escaped because he left the base to deliver orders to the team that evacuated first.Looking back afterwards, he vaguely felt that this was the way the leaders gave him to survive.
Hearing this, Song Yan felt that his scalp was about to explode.He really wanted to grab the soldier by the collar and ask him if he was lying, but he found himself so weak that he couldn't even lift his arms.
"Muran's ability will save lives in a critical moment. Maybe it's okay, but I don't know where he teleported to." At this moment, Zhang Yi's voice sounded.
He and Nan Shao came to help yesterday, and they didn't sleep all night. They were bearded, their eyes were black, and they were very haggard.Nan Shao is not much better than him.
In addition to the entire Ruzhou base being wiped out yesterday, as well as the people within five kilometers around Ruzhou who were either killed or injured, they had to compete with the god of death.They didn't see Teng Jin, Shen Chi, or Li Muran, they were equally anxious.
Song Yan's Adam's apple rolled up and down. Thinking of Li Muran's miraculous ability, his body finally felt a little bit of consciousness, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, they will be fine." Then he followed the busy rescue work, not allowing Think about it yourself.
It wasn't until Shen Chi, Teng Jin and others showed up with Li Muran that the mask he had been holding up was broken, and he hugged the unconscious person tightly into his arms, without raising his head for a long time.
From Shen Chi's mouth, they learned what happened.
There are eight of them in total, and five of them are high-level leaders of the base. They were originally in their own offices, stubbornly preparing to stay until the end. An excuse to gather people together.
Shen Chi originally didn't allow Li Muran to stay, but this girl was just as stubborn as them, he wanted to knock her out and let her be taken away from the base, who knew she was still guarding him so that he couldn't do anything.I was in a hurry, and when I heard her suggestion, I understood her thoughts.Even if he doesn't think about his own safety, he can't cut off other people's lives.
As for Teng Jin, that is needless to say.He originally stayed for the second sister, if he could bring the second sister out alive, there was nothing he couldn't agree to.
Therefore, when disaster struck, they were able to escape with Li Muran's supernatural power.
It's just that they are under the greatest pressure, not to mention using supernatural powers, but they are barely able to move a finger.Li Muran teleported them out with them, but he paid a huge price.
Twenty kilometers.They were moved to a residential house twenty kilometers away. As soon as they arrived, Li Muran fainted from ear and nose bleeding, and the others were also severely injured.
If they weren't worried about Li Muran's situation, they might still be lying dead in place at this time.
Seeing that several able-bodied men survived, Song Ting was of course happy, but when his eyes fell on the unconscious Li Muran, he couldn't help showing guilt and worry, and hurried to get someone to come for treatment.
It was the same mental power as Lan Lan who was seriously injured, Nan Shao couldn't cure it, and neither could other healing system users.
Regarding this result, Song Yan was very calm.Perhaps it was because he thought Li Muran was dead, but now he found that he hadn't lost her, so there was nothing unacceptable about other things.
"I'm going to ask the sick ghost," he said.After finishing speaking, regardless of what other people think, he turned into a beast body on the spot and left with Li Muran on his back.
Song Yan left.Song Ting, who was planning to take people away immediately, could only stay temporarily, waiting for the restart of the base's summit meeting.He wanted to know, in the face of such an enemy, whether Wu Zong would continue to fight to seize power, or if there was any good way to deal with it.
As for Zhang Yi and the others, because Yang Yang is still at the base of the imperial capital, even if he wants to leave, he has to go back to pick up the people before leaving, so they can't leave for a while, so they simply stay to help.
There are also Liu Qiye and others who are also helping. They should be the most shocked this time, because they didn't know anything about the origin of the end of the world and the existence of Qin Xuan.Whether it was Song Ting or Wu Zong's people, they knew something about it, but they were just half-believing and skeptical.
After going through such a fright, many base leaders returned to their hearts like swords, but also wanted to find a way to deal with unknown and terrifying enemies through the restarted summit meeting. Even Wu Zong's people were greatly affected and needed time to recover. Disturbed mood.Although the meeting was delayed again and again, and the leaders of various places felt anxious about it, but no one complained, because everyone needed time to calm down and re-examine the future development plans of their own bases.
And on the fifth day after the disaster, the Protestant leader who came with the head of the Yunzhou base walked into the gate of Wuzong Mountain.The next day, news finally came from the office of the head of the imperial base, but it had nothing to do with the meeting, but asked all the heads of the base to go to Wuzong.
