Chapter 55 [End of Magical World]
“Ding ding…”
A cold mechanical sound rang out in the darkness.
In the corner, there was a faint sound of water dripping.
The demon frowned. He could see in the dark, but when he looked in the direction of the sound, he could only see a huge arc-shaped object as big as a hill standing in the middle of the open space, covered with a layer of silver-gray silky cloth.
There were a few small machines placed next to it, probably flying vehicles or something like that, but the demon didn't even pay attention to them, because his entire mind was attracted by the giant in front of him.
He looked up at the huge building, holding tightly in his hand the paper documents he had just obtained from the safe in the space station.
Although the demon has always been disdainful of the creations of the ants, this emotion only lasted until he saw this information.
This document was written in the common language of the Ansel continent, and even the demon god was shocked by the content:
Folding space, multiverse tower, Kryptonian technology, superman concept, three-body water drop, wandering earth, human completion plan...
The devil seemed to understand, but not quite.
The demon was greatly shocked.
He even began to doubt his previous judgment:
Could it be that he had underestimated these ants before, and their level of civilization had actually reached this level! ?
A large part of them are technological difficulties that even its home planet has yet to overcome!
And this spacecraft, according to the information, is a product of life science and technology from the M17 nebula. Humans have not yet figured out its internal mechanism. We only know that the core of its motherboard has the ability to think independently and needs to recognize its owner before it can be started.
"It seemed to be waiting for its destined owner to arrive."
The demon held his breath and read these words over and over again in the darkness.
"Every tyrannical ruler is extremely conceited," Lu Lang commented. "As a demon god from a planet with a high civilization, he cannot escape this."
It was well worth the effort for them to find so many directors and screenwriters, who took so much trouble to create a sci-fi version of destiny for this person.
Although there are differences in the technological levels between the two civilizations, the fantasies of the lower-level life forms in becoming Long Aotian are very similar.
In the end, his inner greed made the Demon God ignore the subtle sense of incongruity in the silence. After confirming that the mechanical guards outside the door did not notice his infiltration, the Demon God sneered, thinking that they had not noticed his illusion at all. He strode forward confidently and tore off the dust cloth covering the giant object.
The scene he saw made his pupils shrink instantly.
It was a silver half-moon-shaped spaceship, with twinkling dots of light on the surface of its cold shell, like the boundless galaxy in the vast universe, or like a scimitar piercing the sky, with a sharp shape carrying a solemn temperament.
The demon had never seen such a spaceship in his life. He walked around it, but couldn't find the engine and the entrance. He couldn't help but feel anxious.
Can this thing really complete a wormhole jump of more than thousands of light years as the information says?
"drop--"
The short and even mechanical sound suddenly became sharp, and a cold blue light quickly scanned the intruder's body from top to bottom.
The demon was startled and subconsciously erected an air wall in front of him, tensing his body to prepare for defense against possible attacks at any time. However, he saw that the originally seamless silver-gray smooth cabin wall suddenly opened slowly, and everything inside the spacecraft was completely open to him and could be seen at a glance.
"Welcome, Master."
"Master?" The demon frowned. He certainly would not let down his guard immediately. "Why do you say that?"
"Because you are an intelligent race from an advanced civilization," the mechanical female voice replied, "I had to make an emergency landing on a small planet in the M17 nebula due to a malfunction, but was plundered by a group of inferior civilizations and taken back to their planet. Now my malfunction has been corrected, and I am waiting for a true master to drive me back to the starry sky."
This unintentional flattery touched the heart of the demon god. He nodded seriously and said in a proud tone: "I understand your pain. It feels terrible to be surrounded by a group of primitive people. Even if you are worshipped as a god, so what? If you can send me home, I will find a way to send you back to where you came from."
"My planet is called Krypton," the mechanical female voice solemnly read out the lines that a group of screenwriters had recorded for her in advance, "It has long been destroyed. Before the planet was destroyed, my creator Jor-El sent me and his son Carl to Earth, where humans live."
The demon was not interested in any of this. He only heard the words "My planet has been destroyed long ago" and couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
Although he had been delayed for three thousand years, he would probably be punished by his superiors even if he went back. But if he could return to his home planet with a spaceship from another advanced civilization, not only would he be able to make up for his mistake, he might even get a generous reward and merit!
"I……"
Just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly lit up and a sharp alarm sounded throughout the space station!
"Intruder spotted!"
The robot on duty at the door rushed in and raised the laser gun in the direction of the demon. In a panic, the demon's brain was completely unable to think carefully. He only heard the mechanical female voice quickly saying: "Master, enter the cockpit immediately! Put your hands on the armrests, I can turn on the automatic driving, and we will leave here together!"
"good!"
The demon immediately threw his previous concerns to the back of his mind, and without giving it any further thought, he strode into the cockpit.
He didn't notice at all that those seemingly dazzling red lasers had nothing to do with real laser weapons, but were very similar to the laser lights on the stage.
——All of this is just bait to lure the mouse into the cage.
“Bang!!!!”
The cabin door closed heavily, and a white mist filled the cabin. The slightly pungent gas made the Demon God cough twice, but he still did as the mechanical female voice said, sat in the seat, and placed both hands on the armrests.
But the spaceship did not take off as he expected. Instead, after a "click", two cold iron hoops were tightly fastened on his wrists.
The demon was stunned for a few seconds, then roared with bloodshot eyes: "Are you kidding me!?"
"How dare you lie to me! Bastard!!!"
He struggled desperately in his seat, but the iron hoop that bound him did not move at all. Because the devil had mobilized too much magic power, the appearance of the puppet he controlled gradually became dehydrated and shriveled. At first glance, it looked like a crazy zombie wriggling on the seat.
"What a big noise."
Hearing the sound, the demon god suddenly stopped struggling, stared at Gu Liangyou who was standing on the skull of the bone dragon and falling from the sky. After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice: "So it was you who set a trap for me."
"It's me."
Gu Liangyou watched with pleasure as the mouse was finally locked in a cage with nowhere to escape. He stepped on the head under his feet, signaling the bone dragon to land where it was, as he had something to say to it.
A deep dragon roar responded to his command. The bone dragon stirred up dust all over the sky when it landed. The special forces members surrounding the spaceship narrowed their eyes. Jin Xuan even coughed twice due to choking. She stared at Yi Yan, who had been standing closely behind the black-haired young man, with envy: "That's great. I also want to experience the dripping of a dragon head."
"What do you want to say?" the devil stared at him and asked.
"Your stupidity really surprises me." The black-haired young man stood on the bones, took a step forward, and looked down at his defeated opponent. "But this is normal. It is your arrogance that makes you suffer the consequences."
"……you!"
"Don't worry, you don't have to be so resistant, because I don't really want to chat with you."
He raised his lips, and pressed his five slender fingers on the transparent glass porthole. He leaned down, and his thin waistline tightened. The young man showed the demon a gentle smile that was very similar to his main personality, but at this moment, the effect was like adding fuel to the fire:
"I just simply want to admire the helpless and furious look of a lost dog."
"Isn't it too early to declare victory now?"
The demon god, who was pinned to his seat and unable to move, tried hard to suppress his anger and couldn't help sneering.
Although he almost broke his back teeth after hearing what he just said, the demon god still said stubbornly: "Do you think you can catch me like this? Ants are ants, I..."
"Are you trying to say that the one here is not your real body, but just a puppet?"
Gu Liangyou stood up and interrupted him, asking back with a sarcastic look.
The demon's heart skipped a beat, but he still couldn't figure out how Gu Liangyou could find his true body, so he continued to be stubborn and said, "Even if he knew, what would happen?"
"No big deal," Gu Liangyou raised his eyebrows slightly, "We have been working day and night for you these past few days. Do you think it's just to catch a puppet?"
Inside the Desert Transmission Tower.
The map that the elves gave to Zong Qinyuan has been entered into the system. On the radar topographic map, a bright red coordinate is flashing steadily. The location is in a fortress about ten kilometers away from Morton City in a straight line.
There are many such abandoned fortress buildings around Morton City. Because the fallen wizards gather here, the level of chaos there is second only to Morton City under the rule of the city lord. So no one knows that the demon is hiding there to recuperate.
——The premise is that he didn't do something stupid and carry with him a part of the gun that was auctioned.
The command center's plan finally came in handy. Zong Qin, who was in Morton City, saw that the time was ripe and immediately issued an order to the liaison department: "Notify the launch tower and start preparations!"
"yes!"
"Do you know what an armor-piercing metal jet is?"
The black-haired young man stared at the body on the seat that was almost identical to a zombie, as if he didn't notice that the demon was speeding up to break away from the puppet, and suddenly asked him an irrelevant question.
"……What?"
But he didn't expect to get an answer. Although the demon god stared at him with his bloodshot and sinister eyes, Gu Liangyi still smiled good-naturedly.
He was the soft-hearted type, and would let the devil know even if he died, so he took the initiative to explain:
"When the armor-piercing charge explodes from the bottom, the detonation wave propagates forward continuously. The pressure impulse of the detonation causes the charge liner to flow plastically along its normal direction toward the axis. The specific penetration depth formula is P=... Never mind. This is too complicated. You won't understand it even if I tell you."
The armor-piercing projectile, also known as the shaped charge armor-piercing projectile, is a weapon that uses the energy-forming principle of the conical hollow charge of explosives to form a metal jet to penetrate the armor and attack after the charge explodes. It is one of the main types of anti-tank projectiles.
"What on earth do you want to say!?"
The demon was extremely angry. Before his spirit was completely separated from the puppet, he struggled and roared with his last bit of strength: "I will definitely kill you! I will grind you all into ashes!"
"You don't have that chance anymore."
Yi Yan said coldly: "You are the one who should be crushed to ashes, not us."
The gas in the cabin is nitrogen, which is used by a small number of countries on Earth for euthanasia, both to weaken the magic power of the Demon God and out of basic humanitarian respect for the puppet that died at the hands of the Demon God.
But what about the devil himself?
No one present would think that he deserved a painless death.
"Three, two, one..."
"--ignition!"
A shining meteor rose from the desert, breaking through the air at a speed of Mach 3, and flying across the dark night sky like a meteor.
"boom--!!!"
The demon in the cabin opened his eyes wide, sensing the pain and heat of his main body. With the last bit of consciousness he raised his head and glanced at the two humans standing on the skull of the bone dragon in front of him. Even though he was unwilling, he could only slowly close his eyes.
The scene was quiet for a few minutes.
It was not until Yi Yan and Gu Liang stepped onto the ground from mid-air and learned from the special operations team members on the front line that "the other half of the key has been recovered and no life signs were detected at the scene", and they saw Gu Liang silently nodding to everyone after checking the light screen, that the whole audience burst into cheers that resounded through the sky!
“We won!!!”
"Huraa! Wuuuuuuu..." Yaroslav, a strong man, was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears. He turned around and gave Jin Xuan an unexpected bear hug. He wanted to rush over to hug Yi Yan, but Yi Yan, who was prepared, dodged him silently.
"Nitrogen is good, and it's environmentally friendly and pollution-free." Jin Xuan was also smiling. She put the gun loaded with bullets back into her waist, smiling and wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. "It's great. At least all my efforts over the past few days have not been in vain."
She did not ask Gu Liang and the others if they could go home, because Jin Xuan just wanted to enjoy the joy of success like everyone else.
They won! Human civilization won!!
The cheers inside the headquarters were equally deafening. Everyone was hugging each other and laughing in celebration. The streets outside were also already in an uproar.
At this moment, people all over the world were immersed in a sea of joy. The names of Mo Da and Gu Liang were mentioned over and over again by everyone whose faces turned red with excitement. There was no doubt that they were all heroes of mankind!
Even Lu Lang was pushed around by a group of subordinates who were usually scared of him. Someone even suggested tossing Minister Lu, the great contributor, to the sky. He didn't get angry, but just smiled and waved his hands, saying that his old bones couldn't stand it anymore.
When he noticed the smiling faces of the students on the surveillance screen, he slowly exhaled, and his frown gradually relaxed.
Although the challenge is not over yet, this sleepless night tonight is a common festival for all mankind.
Along the way, they experienced too many difficulties, from the global panic at the beginning, to the cautious exploration of the new world, to entering the city to establish a base, collecting intelligence and moving forward step by step, and making desperate sacrifices for the common goal... Even Lu Lang did not expect that this group of students, who could still be called children in his eyes, actually survived and led all mankind to victory.
——In this confrontation between civilizations, they are undoubtedly the winners!
