Chapter 729 [God]
The sudden appearance of this catastrophic disaster was like a pile of hail hitting you in the face.
Fear appeared on everyone's face.
Even the Fire Snake leader, who had a strong mind, couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.
"These monsters are coming for that [Magic Cube]..." A hot-tempered Fire Snake Man subconsciously began to shift the blame, "I told you a long time ago that we should throw that damn [Magic Cube] away!"
"Why is this happening? What is it?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. The most important thing now is what to do!"
The Fire Snake leader began to frantically review the photos sent by the front-line soldiers. The bizarre way of death deeply hurt their nerves.
There were slight earthquakes beneath my feet, and the monsters seemed to be attacking the gate of the treasury.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The sound was like a raging beast attacking the cage.
"If you let it take the [Cube] away, will it leave on its own?"
"No, don't hope for help from the eighteen human civilizations!"
"This crisis is too great. No one else will fight for us. I even think that a level five civilization wouldn't be able to withstand it!"
They were self-aware, but they still made a phone call with a sense of luck.
Old Cat said sternly on the phone: "I advise you to evacuate immediately! We in Green City can help send some transport planes, but we will never participate in the war."
At this point in the discussion, the leader of the Fire Snakes made a prompt decision and gave an order with a sullen face: "Notify all the people to retreat on the flying fortresses, and escape as many as possible!"
This decision once again shocked everyone. Abandoning the entire city meant the complete loss of industrialization!
For industrial civilization, the means of production account for at least half of the weight! For example, a photolithography machine can be used to manufacture chips immediately as long as there is one; but without a photolithography machine, it would take a long time to produce one from scratch.
If they abandon everything, how long will it take them to rise again?!
The leader gnashed his teeth and said, "With all the spiritual energy and civilization points, plus a sufficient number of people, we can rebuild civilization."
"We can go to the trading market to buy it!"
"If everyone dies, there will be no way to rebuild!"
The central treasury does contain the remains of an important legacy, the [Monster·Hydra], and is inhabited by unknown monsters and [Ox-ghosts].
The Fire Serpent people would not be so stupid as to put all their eggs in one basket; the wealth in the other treasuries could be taken out.
"Quick! Follow the order!"
At the command, the civilians of the Flame Snake Civilization rushed towards the flying fortress and began their hasty escape...
The sound of wind, rain, howling and crying mixed together to form a tragic melody.
The sun is setting, and it remains unknown when dawn will come.
…
"The people are evacuating... our Flame Snake Civilization still has a way out..."
At the front line, near the central treasury, Selandis was hiding in the monitoring room, breathing heavily.
Looking at the spaceships outside the window fleeing at the fastest speed, his mental state that was about to collapse miraculously recovered a little.
Although he had the opportunity to evacuate, he still stayed here.
"I... need to keep looking... what on earth is that thing?"
After all, he was unwilling to accept that he didn't even know what the enemy who destroyed his civilization looked like.
Not far away, a huge black shadow came roaring, and apparently because of its fast speed, it smashed down a tall building with a "bang".
[Ghost], the ultimate weapon developed in the First Era, is immortal and has no intelligence, but has its own unique instincts.
No one knows what their instincts are, and no one can predict their next move.
From the ruins, a minotaur with blue-gray hair all over his body and a shriveled body crawled out.
His stiff body was paralyzed on the ground like a corpse. Every move he made was mechanical and rigid, especially his two skinny arms which looked like they were broken.
[Niu Gui], as the name suggests, looks similar to a minotaur.
But he was very thin, extremely thin, just skin and bones.
Serendis just took a quick look and at first thought thought it was some malnourished old minotaur.
But then, the [cow ghost] slowly turned its head, and a "cracking" sound of bones was heard.
"Oops, it found me."
Being watched by the [Bull Ghost] through a wall, this battle-hardened warrior felt extreme fear. At this moment he even lost the ability to think. He was like a cat caught by a mouse. He could do nothing but lie still and pretend to be dead.
"Tada tada", the sound of footsteps was heard.
Then, it gradually went away.
When he regained consciousness, he found that he had lost control of his excretion and his feces and urine fell to the ground.
Selandis didn't care about this. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "The [ghosts] of the Red Run Alliance must have discovered me... but they ignored me. Maybe they thought I was a paramecium on the roadside."
He didn't dare to look directly with his naked eyes, so he just closed his eyes and used his divine skill - [Sixth Sense]!
A black and white picture emerged in my mind, with countless dots, lines and surfaces interweaving into abstract patterns.
The dark area around the [Ox Ghost] was shrinking, which meant that the horrible natural disaster was gathering its strength.
Then, it took a step forward and walked into the central treasury like a robot.
"It's going to look for that monster..." Selandis couldn't help but clench his fists. "Are they in the same group, or are they enemies?"
He gritted his teeth, took two steps at a time, and pulled off a set of armor from a corpse.
"General, lend it to me."
"I don't want to die so easily."
The corpse has rotted into a pool of pus. No one can imagine that they were still alive a few minutes ago.
I gritted my teeth, rinsed it under the faucet for a while, and put it on myself.
[Giant Serpent Scale Armor], a set of epic equipment, is made from a scale of the [Monster Nine-Headed Giant Serpent]. It is natural and has powerful idealistic defensive capabilities.
"It's better than nothing."
After a while, a small, shiny bead like crystal was found in the monitoring room. It was called [Eye of Transparency], a legendary reconnaissance item.
This crystal eyeball not only has the ability to see through things, but can also transmit what it sees to the screen.
"Huh... I feel like I'm going to die at any moment, but it doesn't matter. A snake dies with its tail facing up, and it lives forever." While cheering himself up, Serendis took out a knife and engraved words on the metal.
The higher the idealistic radiation, the lower the reliability of the technological product.
In this kind of idealistic disaster, audio and video recordings are of little significance. Instead, this piece of metal made of black iron has become the best carrier of information.
"The [Ghost] of the Red Run Alliance walked into the treasury, stumbling and looking unsteady on his feet."
"I am controlling the Eye of Perspective. Please follow me in."
"The intensity of the field is too high, and the transmission of the [Eye of Perspective] signal is intermittent."
"Most of the radiation I can feel is spread by the [ghost]. That unknown life form, on the other hand, does not have any field."
"For some reason, the [ghost] is still gathering its strength. The whole process has lasted for 30 seconds. It moves very slowly..."
He took a deep breath and continued to record the text: "The door of the Central Treasury has been broken open. It was done by that unknown creature... There is white mold growing on the door, and there are also some signs of brute force."
"I have adjusted the picture resolution to the lowest and turned off the sound."
“All I could see was a blurry mosaic.”
[Eye of Perspective] follows the cow ghost, rolling with a "gurgling" sound.
The environment inside seemed very quiet. A large number of soldiers on duty were lying in the pus. They died silently, and in a few minutes, only a pile of bones were left.
Maybe after a while, not even a bone will be left.
When he saw these compatriots, Selandis couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling sad.
If it weren't for his ability of [Sixth Sense], he might have died inexplicably.
He was not afraid of death, he was just afraid of dying in vain.
Not only did the corpses grow mold, but they also had something like white hair that floated in the breeze.
As the [Cow Ghost] moved, white hair like dandelions fluttered in the air and then fell to the ground.
"Oh no, these things can't be contagious, right? If they spread, the entire Pangu Continent will be in trouble!"
Just then, "Ding-ling-ling", the phone in the investigation room rang.
When I looked at the number, I saw that it was the supreme leader of the Flame Snake Civilization calling.
"This is the Sixth Squadron, Selandis."
"Colonel Selandis, the Red Run Alliance has sent a notice that the [Ghost] did escape from them... They don't know the specific cause of the riot."
The leader's voice sounded a little hoarse.
"The eighteen human civilizations have become seriously concerned about our situation and are dispatching a large number of supersonic spacecraft to help transport civilians to a safe location..."
"Please ensure your own safety and find out more information. These are our future negotiation chips and have a very high transaction value."
Selandis breathed a sigh of relief: "We have become a battlefield here, right?"
The voice on the other end of the phone said, "It's like this. The whole city will be buried with us. We must be mentally prepared."
"But we have brought with us a lot of assets and a chance to make a comeback."
"In addition, our army remains intact. No one will bully us in the short term. Don't worry."
In fact, with so many civilizations gathered in one area, they all prosper together and suffer together.
Only Green City can escape by driving a spaceship.
Other civilizations were also organizing people to escape, but their speed was obviously not as fast as Green City.
"Alas, how could our Flame Snake Civilization deserve to suffer such a disaster? Colonel, if it is really impossible to do anything, you can just retreat for the time being... You are a senior talent here..."
Selandis was too lazy to think about it anymore. He just controlled the [Eye of Perspective] and stared at his surroundings intently.
The power of [Niu Gui] is becoming increasingly restrained, and it is becoming more and more like an ordinary corpse.
All the items stored in the central treasury are related to the [Demon·Ancient Giant Snake]. The thick metal doors are made of the latest nano materials and can withstand nuclear bomb attacks!
But now, even a one-meter-thick metal door can be easily broken open, and the scraps of copper and iron are twisted into a ball like a twist.
"I remember there is a hydrogen bomb in a room..." Selandis said on the phone, "Prime Minister, please grant me the permission and key to use the hydrogen bomb!"
The leaders of the Fire Snakes were a little hesitant. The central treasury stored their strength. The reason they set up a hydrogen bomb was so that they could perish together when invaded by foreign races - a double loss is always better than a single loss.
But now it is not an invasion by foreign races, but an invasion by unknown natural disasters. The other side does not even have the concept of winning or losing. The hydrogen bomb explosion only destroys their own foundation.
They actually still have a little bit of longing, what if some wealth is left after the war?
"Hydrogen bombs won't have much effect in a battle of this intensity...but I can give you the secret key first!"
"Don't expect too much from destroying the enemy, just keep your own life safe."
The head of the Fire Snake Civilization just spoke to the human side. Comrade Old Cat was vague in his words, but just asked them to evacuate as soon as possible.
According to the old cat's original words: "You can guess the specific reason, it involves an epochal disaster. You can't observe it. If you observe it, you will die."
…
However, at this moment, [Niu Gui] saw something and moved!
The scarlet eyes suddenly widened, and he swung his shriveled arms and punched towards the end of the corridor!
This punch directly created a spark in the air.
"boom!"
An impact comparable to a nuclear explosion occurred underground!
The city froze at that moment.
A strange black light expanded from the center of the treasury. The glass curtain walls of all the buildings suddenly shattered with a "crash", refracting the distorted black light millions of times!
The outline of the office building began to darken, and the concrete surface peeled off like a wax figure, revealing the black skeleton of steel bars.
Thick, hot fog rose from the asphalt road, rushing along the street like an inverted lava waterfall.
When the shock wave arrived, the air turned into a translucent gel. Thirty-story buildings collapsed like sand, and tens of thousands of tons of steel beams and glass turned into a metal rainstorm and poured down.
The entire dome of the Central Treasury was blown off and broke into countless burning plaster fragments at the bottom of the mushroom cloud.
Only then did Selandis understand why hydrogen bombs were useless... This... every punch of this [ghost] was comparable to a hydrogen bomb, so isn't it completely useless?
He crawled on the ground, the strong impact made him bleed from all seven orifices! !
The whole city is shaking, and the "Concrete Wall and Iron Barrier" carving is flashing wildly, raising the protective performance to the extreme.
But in front of the huge brute force of the [Bull Ghost], it was of little use. This large city covering an area of more than 1,000 square kilometers and weighing tens of billions of tons suffered a major earthquake, and the buildings roared at the top of their lungs!
"The fight started... who wins and who loses?"
Serendis was sweating all over, wishing that [Niu Gui] could kill him with one punch and then be summoned back by the "Red Run Alliance".
But it was obvious that the opposite happened. The momentum of [Niu Gui] was rising endlessly, and the punch just now seemed to be just a test.
He grabbed the control screen in his hand and curled up in the corner.
The [Eye of Perspective] used for reconnaissance was also blown away by the strong wind caused by the [Bull Ghost]!
The air wave created by this punch flew into the sky, then fell back to the ground, bouncing several times.
“Da da da!”
This extremely hard little bead is indeed a legendary creation. After being blown by the aftermath, it only cracked into a few cracks - this scene is enough to make its forger proud!
"Gurgle, gurgle" the small ball rolled into a stone crack.
Selandis held his breath, his heart beating wildly!
[Sixth Sense] gave a frantic warning, and the scales on his body stood up, but he ignored it and shouted on the phone: "Sir, I think I have a chance to see that unknown life! I... I have to take a look just in case. I'll hang up first!"
In a blurry mosaic-like pattern, I saw...
A white thing stood in front of the head of the [Monster·Nine-headed Giant Snake] and stretched out its pale palm to touch the [Magic Cube]!
It is not too big, about 4 meters tall, with long arms that reach down to the knees, and its whole body is white.
Because the image resolution is very low, it is impossible to observe specific details.
At this moment, an extreme fear came over him, and dense shivers spread along his spine throughout his body, making him involuntarily widen his eyes, as if he had glimpsed some cosmic truth, and he was completely unable to take his eyes away!
Then, a black minotaur shadow forcibly grabbed the white, shriveled arm.
"Moo!" The [Bull Ghost] let out a low, hoarse roar, the red light in its eyes became more intense, and spots of psoriasis-like things appeared on its body.
Two monsters, one black and one white, began to wrestle. On the surface, they seemed motionless, but in fact, there were undercurrents.
The black airflow formed a vortex and spread in all directions.
"Bang!" [Eye of Perspective] exploded.
At the same time, Selandis's two eyeballs broke apart, and bright red blood gushed out like a faucet!
This was his subconscious protective behavior, he knew too much of the truth.
Using the extraordinary fire to cut off one's own eyeballs before the cognition comes out seems to be the only way to survive.
But it’s too late…
Seeing is seeing, and the emergence of cognition cannot be reversed.
Dense mutterings poured into your mind, and small beige bumps grew wildly along the two blood holes in your eye sockets!
These strange bumps spread on his face, but not very quickly. It might be because he was not seeing clearly and his cognition was not deep enough.
The brave soldier wailed in severe pain, grabbed a knife and wrote on the metal plate: "The moment I saw the blurry picture, an illusion appeared in my mind."
"Its name is [God]!"
