Chapter 159 The Empty Capital
Suddenly, a loud "rumbling" sound came faintly, the sound became louder and louder, and the earth was shaking.
"Bright shells and insects..."
The crowd exclaimed in fear, and several kilometers to the left, you could see rolling smoke and dust rushing towards them.
The crowd suddenly became turbulent. Over the past two months, everyone has gained some understanding of the habits of colorful shell insects. Large-scale vibrations and smoke and dust must be the colorful shell insects that have formed a worm tide.
"Quiet!" Zichuan raised his arms and shouted. The crowd immediately became quiet. During this period, everyone here was used to Zou Zichuan giving orders.
"Don't panic, keep a distance. Not far ahead is the warning range of the Empire Skynet!"
...
When Zou Zichuan gave the order, the crowd began to run wildly. At this time, anything became meaningless, and life was the most important thing.
Rumble...
The colorful shell insects rushed towards us at an astonishing speed. Fortunately, Zou Zichuan reminded him at first that the crowd did not flock together to run, otherwise countless people would die if they trampled in such a chaotic situation.
People scattered and ran wildly towards the capital's defense circle, the distance was getting closer and closer, but the tide of colorful shell insects was getting closer and closer, less than a thousand meters away.
One thousand meters!
For the colorful shell bugs weighing dozens of tons, the maximum speed can reach a speed of nearly 200 kilometers per hour, and one thousand meters is an almost negligible distance.
If you don't enter the imperial defense circle before the tide of insects rushed over, there would be almost no hope of survival.
"Let's go!" Zou Zichuan suddenly pulled Belle. In the turbulence formed by thousands of people, his personal power was insignificant. Moreover, at this time, no one would listen to his orders. Everyone had only one word in their heart: Escape!
"Fatty, wait..." Belle's body rushed in the other direction, and with a "bang!", he was hit by the crowd of people running wildly...
"Ah..." Bel screamed in horror, and then he realized that he had been held in his arms by Zou Zichuan.
"Fatty, that girl..."
Zou Zichuan didn't say anything, ran wildly, his fat body dodged left and right, constantly avoiding the running crowd...
"Fatty, child, child..." Belle was so anxious that she burst into tears, and her hands desperately hit Zou Zichuan's broad chest.
Zou Zichuan didn't say anything, and his sharp eyes searched the chaotic crowd. Finally, he saw a little girl. The little girl was held in her arms by Watie. Watie's tall figure looked particularly eye-catching in the crowd...
Not only were the girl holding the arms of Watie, but the seven swordsmen each holding a child in their hands, but also Lin Yuntian, Zhang Xiaodong, Luo Lijun and others holding the child. Many strong men from the cave also held the child.
Seeing this scene, Zou Zichuan felt a little fluctuating in his heart...
Rumble...
"hiss……"
"hiss……"
"ah!"
"ah……!"
...
The sharp chirping of the colorful shell insects was full of penetration. There were still twenty meters away from the cordon. There were already continuous screams and trampling sounds coming from behind, and the tremors seemed to be behind them.
Zou Zichuan's body accelerated, like a wisp of blue smoke, interspersed among the crowd.
"Pengpeng..."
Most of the people rushed into the cordon, and at this time, the colorful shellworms had already rushed into the crowd.
Watie held the girl's nerves tensed to the limit. He could already feel the foul smell sprayed from the colorful shellworms behind him.
Sudden!
Tie's heart hopped, and a boy fell to the ground in front of him...
Without thinking, Watie hugged the girl with one hand, bent down, and pulled the boy on the ground with the other hand. With a "brush", the boy was lifted up by Watie...
"Swoosh..." Wa Tie felt a stinking cold wind passing by his head, and a huge sickle slashed down.
not good!
The old power of Wattie has been exhausted, and the new power has not yet been born. In the midst of this lightning, Wattie couldn't help but sigh. Unexpectedly, he had to do good things for a lifetime, but died of doing good things at the moment. Hehe, this can be considered retribution...
Suddenly!
Wa Tie felt a huge force on his shoulder, pulling him into the air, as if he was flying in the clouds, barely avoiding the rapid sickle.
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from behind, and the sickle penetrated into the hardened road. Watie made a cold sweat, hugged the two children, and looked back in his busy schedule. He saw Zou Zichuan's figure just passing by...
"Thank you!" Watie shouted as he ran wildly.
"Need not!"
Zou Zichuan held Belle and stomped his feet quickly, and surpassed Watie in a flash. Watie was so anxious that he ran wildly, followed Zou Zichuan into the cordon of the Empire's defense circle.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
"hiss……"
"hiss……!"
Countless light columns lit up, forming a light curtain, which was extremely dazzling and dazzling, and people's eyes became blind for a moment.
In the light curtain, the screams of colorful shell insects continued to spread, and a burnt smell filled the air. People who had passed the defense circle were so tired that they sat on the ground. Although it was only a few hundred meters short, between the lines of life and death, the potential of the human body's explosion had overdrawn all its strength.
Everyone looked back at the colorful shell insect struggling in the light curtain. The light curtain was nearly fifty meters thick, and the distance of fifty meters became a line of life and death. In order to break through this airtight defense line, many colorful shell insects actually flew into the sky and took a nearly suicide flight posture to charge into the defense line of the imperial capital...
Unfortunately, the colorful shell insects flying under control die faster, and the death weaving net made of light curtains tends to strike targets in the air.
Everyone was not happy to see the huge colorful shellworms being shot like sieves, because there were countless imperial citizens in the colorful shellworms. When the colorful shellworms entered the defense circle, the artillery fire in the defense circle was activated. People who did not run in before the defense circle were activated were submerged in the insect wave and the light curtain...
The fierce artillery fire lasted for twenty minutes before it stopped. The dense corpses of colorful shell insects extended to the end that the eyes could not see. I don’t know how many colorful shell insects there were. The conservative estimate was more than 5,000.
After the network closed the defense line that day, everyone returned to the pile of corpses of the colorful shell insects to try to find the people who survived. Unfortunately, there was no one left. Even the corpse was not found. The humans who did not run into the defense line were trampled into mud by the colorful shell insects weighing dozens of tons.
I gathered all the people and counted them. The total number was more than 2,700, and now there are less than 1,500 people left. Most of the elderly, women and patients were trampled to death by colorful shell bugs.
There are many surviving children, and there are at least 180 more than 200 children alive. I have to say that this is a miracle.
People's mood is extremely heavy.
Suddenly, a harmonica sounded, and it was the song of "Hometown". The boy stood alone among the crowd and was playing intently. The ups and downs and downs broke the depressing atmosphere.
The song of the boy starts from the middle. The song that is full of passion for life makes the air full of excitement and upward happiness...
Slowly, a group of people began to gather around the boy, fifteen boys, two girls, and many people from the Big Universe Tornado Band.
With the music, seventeen people began to sing, and the chorus full of sunshine seemed to bring hope to people. Slowly, people merged into the magical music...
For thousands of years, music has been like a magic pill that can cure all diseases and has accompanied humans.
When you are frustrated, you have music to accompany you.
When you are proud, there will be music with you.
Music is an indispensable part of the human soul.
Driven by the boy, this group of people who had been arduously trek to the capital after more than a month of hardship came out of the darkness.
The deceased have passed away, and the living still have to live. People begin to yearn for a better life tomorrow. People believe that colorful shellworms will always be driven out. From the thousands of colorful shellworms just now falling down in the cannon, people see hope.
Colorful shell insects are still unable to withstand human technological civilization!
Human victory is only a matter of time sooner or later.
People marched towards the core of the empire with a longing mood, because they are now only on the periphery of the capital, but their moods are completely different now. They no longer have to worry about the encirclement and blocking of colorful shellworms. It is safe here.
Many people even began to fantasize that the Empire's army had prepared hot water, warm blankets, and delicious food for them, and then took a shower with great pleasure, and finally, a comfortable sleep...
Soon, they discovered that they were wrong!
The empire capital had been dismantled without a recognizance. If it weren't for the hardened pavement with a feeling, people almost thought they had come to a prehistoric site.
There is no complete building, no one, and the entire capital is so quiet that it is suffocating. This is a strange tranquility.
It's like a huge construction site halfway through demolition.
Inexplicably, everyone felt an invisible pressure.
There is no one in the capital of the empire!
There is no one in the capital of the empire!
So, who commands Skynet? Who commands that mecha unit?
The Seven Swordsmen and Lin Yuntian and Luo Lijun all observed in surprise that this was their only hope, but there was no one in the destination of this hope, and even the imperial army did not see it.
What exactly happened here?
In fact, not only them, but also Zou Zichuan felt inexplicably as he looked at the dilapidated houses. Although he knew that the people in the capital of the Redel Empire might have evacuated, the damage to some buildings in the capital of the Redel Empire was not so serious in the early stages of the war. Judging from the recovery of the Skynet defense line, the Empire's capital has been completely included in the management of Skynet, why is there such serious damage still happening?
Looking at the open door holes on the building, Zou Zichuan felt a shocking feeling, as if it had been robbed by a million troops here...
