Ring the World, administrative district TVIK-6395465.

"The world is about to end!" only the chosen ones will survive......"

In the streets, people with outstretched arms shouted in the crowd, and the demagogic words were exerted to the maximum under the effect of powerful psionic energy, and the crowd surrounded it, circle after circle.

The crowd surrounded it, most of the men and women with lost faces and some already showing obsession.

"Look! Satan is coming, we lived in it, we are its blood, it is our ancestors, our homeland. There is no need to fear, there is no need to fear, and now we will return to its embrace, to our homeland......"

Under its guidance, the spiritual energy of thousands of people converged and trembled, forming a grand whisper of spiritual energy, affecting the nearby crowd.

The grand whispers of psionic energy are like waves, spreading outward in circles, and the stirring "splashes" splash up, being pulled to the world outside the sky, and from the world outside the sky there is an inexplicable echo.

Low, dream-like.

"Listen, beyond the stars, our homeland is calling us. We were born in the dust, and now we will return to the dust, the stars are not our home, but the earth is our home! Compatriots, let us go home......"

"Bang!"

Before the words fell, the fanatical voice came to an abrupt end in the light sound.

The whispering of psionic energy, which was deliberately guided by people, lost its host, and the men and women who were originally in a trance woke up like a dream, and their faces were full of energy.

Not far away, Garo Hase, who was wearing psionic armor, put down the ray gun in his hand.

"Damn snake cub, you've been so presumptuous. ”

In the past, even if the Serpent Cult was rampant, it did not dare to preach so openly in the areas ruled by the Third Reich, but now the act of the Serpent Cult is completely blatant, and even such unarmed preachers dare to preach openly.

"Citizens of the Empire, please quickly return to your place of residence and be subjected to mind-contagion censorship under the guidance of the security AI. ”

Fireworks erupted from the engine beneath his feet, and Kara Hasei flew above the crowd, facing the crowd that had just been bewitched.

But unexpectedly, the crowd only stirred for a moment, but no one actually left.

Katara Hase's brows.

"Citizens, I repeat, please quickly return to your place of residence, and under the guidance of the security AI, you will be subject to the mental infection review!"

"Go back, where are you going? The world is about to be destroyed, and we have been abandoned! Don't you understand?!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.

Hasegara looked around, he realized that something was wrong, the people who were bewitched in the past basically went to do a mind test after they woke up, but in front of him, although the people had come to their senses, they still looked at him with hostility and anger in their eyes.

They weren't just seduced by psionic powers, but they really believed the preacher's words.

Believe the words of those snake cubs who use ordinary people as their meat shields and attack terrorists? Believe those snake cubs who make him sick to the point of vomiting?

A nameless anger surged into Hase's heart.

"You ......"

He was about to scold them, but at that moment, a loud bell rang.

"When...... While...... When ......"

The long bell rang from afar, and when they heard it, both the people and Hasegara looked at it.

In this small city, such scenes are happening everywhere......

On the gravity-defying floating city, the man who is drinking tea raises his head, the woman who is driving the shuttle looks down in the sea of clouds, the scholar who is thinking about the problem rubs his forehead and looks worriedly in the direction where the bell is coming from, and in the spherical building, the bureaucrat who takes everything in the city in his eyes silently plays with the beads in his hand, and his mind is complicated......

Everyone knows what this bell means.

The end of the calendar has finally come to 0 years.

In one year's time, the end that everyone fears will come to the world.

......

The end of the calendar, since when no one knows, was the earliest prediction of when the "star" came to the world, and later it was called the end of the calendar.

Every year that passes, the end of the calendar is deducted for one year, year after year...... So after 2,000 years, mankind finally came to the last year of the end of the calendar, the year 0 of the end of the calendar.

0 year 0 month 0 day of the last calendar.

In the Ring World, this day is regarded as the last day, the Last Day, because when the time comes to this day, that "star" will descend on the Ring World.

The "stars" will swallow the entire ring of the world, and all good and evil will end on this day.

In order to prevent the arrival of this day, for 2,000 years, countless people with lofty ideals have sacrificed their lives and forgot to die. But...... It can't be done, it can't be done anyway, there is simply no way to destroy that "star".

And a long time ago, as early as the Second Republic, human beings, who realized that it was possible to destroy that "star", were gradually evacuating the population of the ring world, but there were too many, too many, too many people in the whole ring world.

How many humans are there in the world?

Trillion?

Billions?

Trillions?

Billions, billions, billions?

It's 30 billion billions of human beings.

The area of the entire world is trillions of times that of the earth, and the efficient use of the space around the world has made it possible to spread the ground-based cities and floating cities from the surface to the sky.

There are more than 300 billion stars, 10 trillion planets of various sizes in the entire Milky Way, and today, there are more than 700 billion administrative planets in the entire Milky Way. Some of these administrative planets have a population of less than 1,000 people, and some have a population of more than 100 million, but even if you add up the entire population of these 700 billion administrative planets in the entire galaxy, it is less than one-tenth of the world around the world.

O world around the world, the crystallization of the wisdom of mankind, the product of all the greatness, glory, brilliance, and sublimity.

It's so huge, it's so grand, that it dwarfs any star in the universe. It stands proudly among the stars and calls itself the Creator, but now its enormity has become the Achilles' heel of all mankind.

Even if the population of the entire ring world were divided among all the administrative planets, it would not be enough to carry them, and even if the new colonized planets were urgently expanded, it would not be able to accommodate such a large number of people.

Every year, humanity disperses more than 100 billion humans from the world to all corners of the universe. But even with the desperate transfer, less than one-tenth of the population has been transferred after 2000, and today, there are still more than 20 billion people in the world.

Everyone knows that it is too late, and everyone knows that these 20 billion people in Beijing will die in the [Doomsday], but everyone is powerless.

"Go back, where are you going? The world is about to be destroyed, and we have been abandoned! Don't you understand?!"

The crowd has been reviewed by AI for centralized mental infection, and the matter has been resolved, but for some reason, the man's sad and angry voice has always echoed in Hase's mind.

Peace of mind.

His mother said that she was like a father whom he had never met, calm and silent, solemn like a sculpture, and only became calmer and calmer no matter what happened.

There weren't many people on the bustling streets of the past, neither in the sky nor on the ground, no shuttles, hovercars, only some autonomous robots working.

Coming to the Public Security Department, although it has entered the interstellar age, not everything is sci-fi, based on the problem of cost, many places are still very similar to their police counterparts a long time ago, and the centralized work is still centralized work.

Looking around, there are only a few people in the spherical gravity-free rooms, and most of the few people who are depressed and weak.

"Isn't the Director there? ”

Kasara Hasei asked.

In his impression, the Director was not a hardworking man, but he was not absent from work.

"AI just sent a message, saying that the director was drunk at home and resigned. ”

A handsome young man floated in his gravityless room, manipulating the light brain, and said weakly.

"By the way, there are many people who have also resigned, and now the Sheriff's Department may be just a few of us. ”

Every year when the end of the calendar counts down, it is inevitable that some people can't bear the pressure and then give up on themselves, which is also the norm, but this year is the end of the calendar 0 years, so there are a lot of them.

Katara Hasei nodded.

"It's just a few of us, and it looks like the next period of work will be more tiring. ”

As he spoke, he floated into his spherical weightless chamber and manipulated the monitoring light brain, with the assistance of AI, to analyze the movements of the entire city and prevent crimes.

The handsome young man looked at him in astonishment.

I said...... Do you really feel nothing, and you still want to work at this time. ”

"How do you think I should react. ”

Garo Hase, as he replied, scanned the message.

"Today next year, we'll all be dead, don't you feel it at all?"

"So what. ”

"So, what else do we need? We're all going to die, you, me, she, we're all going to die, and you're not going to react at all?"

The young man's face was full of incomprehension, and he couldn't help but say.

But the answer to him was......

"So what. ”

Garo Hasei raised her head and looked at him calmly.

"Jerome, I know what you mean, next year today, we're all going to die, so what, don't have to work today?"

Jerome looked into his eyes, those calm, deep eyes.

He didn't see any fear.

Katara Hase's mental turmoil was as calm as ever, as if the end of the calendar had reached 0 years and most of his colleagues had resigned could not affect him.

The young man took a deep breath and smiled wryly.

"It's you...... But I'm not like you, I can't be so calm. Katara Hase, I'm afraid of death, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to escape to other planets if I can, but I can't. ”

"You see, I can still see that 'star' even during the day, when I was very young, it was only faintly visible at night, but now, even during the day, I can see it clearly. Whenever I look at it, I feel fear because I know it's getting closer and closer, and death is getting closer and closer to me......"

The young man bowed his head.

"Garo Hase, do you think we're really just waiting for death?"

"I don't know, I just know that you should work hard, or there will be a third-degree crime in front of you. ”

Always calm in response to his mental fluctuations.

The young man looked up and looked at Garo Hase, who was staring at him.

I don't know why, I was already scared in my heart, but seeing that my friend was always calm, the fear in my heart was gradually blown away.

"Well, work hard, work hard. ”

Looking at Jerome, who had regained his usual hippie smile, Karo Hasei nodded.

TVIK-6395465 administrative district, nothing to do today.

There are 365 days left until the end of the world.
