Chapter 2159: The Sleeping City

The earthy brown planet continued to fall, and the squeezing of the two spaces caused the space nodes to continue to fold or be destroyed, and the spatial energy fluctuations in Peters City were unprecedentedly violent.

The intense spatial energy gathered to form one spatial vortex after another, and these gray vortices lay between the Imperial Capital Star and Peters City, as if dark stars were watching the entire city.

In this short period of time, when the natural danger caused by the space collision appeared, the dense fog closed area was loosened, and cracks appeared correspondingly.

The beast that emerged from the crack roared and rampaged through the sky, and the night sky of Peters City had never been more noisy.

Crazy beasts, an army of zergs falling from the sky, a group of battleships ready to attack, a huge planet that covers the sky and the sun.

When you look up at the sky, you can see upside-down stone pillars, undulating sand dunes, deserts, and hanging pale silver curtains.

Malibu, Tom, and Rogers stood still in the hanging garden of the academy building, and their classmates yawned and fell asleep even as something terrible and amazing was happening in the sky on the street outside the college.

"Wake up tomorrow and everything will be solved. ”

"Sleep, is there anything more important than sleeping, the city defense will definitely be able to solve it. ”

Words like these come from different mouths.

"Is this the end of the world?"

"Maybe not that. The other's voice was full of hesitation.

The shortest student looked left and right, "Are we going to run away, will those monsters rush into the academy?" ”

His legs trembled and he could barely stand, and if he could, he even wished he could go back to the warm bed and sleep like the other students, as the Voice of the City notice said, not to move around at will, and all the troubles and dangers when the sun rose tomorrow morning, everything was solved.

"The academy should be safe for the time being. ”

"We should look for other people who aren't asleep, it can't be just the three of us, don't you think it's strange that those people would choose to go to sleep?"

"It's hypnotized, such a large-scale hypnosis can only be done by the city defense, there must be other people who are not affected, let's find them to converge first. ”

Rumble!

With a muffled thud, a four-winged beast broke free from the crack and dived, and a cold light from the left side of the academy hit the beast's chest.

The giant beast's chest was shot through, and there was a huge hole more than ten meters in diameter.

The corpse of the giant beast fell downward, and it was about to crash into the academy building, when another light shot out, and the giant beast dissipated without a trace.

The city's defense system is fully activated.

Running out is no safer than staying in the academy, they have no weapons and equipment, and it will only be easier to die if they run away.

But they couldn't go back to sleep in their dormitories.

Starting from the dormitory of the academy, call out to companions through a secret communication platform between students.

The three colleges in the southeast and north of Peters City have all joined this secret platform, and only the students know the communication code and secret language among themselves.

The traditional and ancient alternative method of communication did not alarm the Inspectorate, and Xiao Qi's gadget left in Bidser City accidentally left a backup of the transmitted data.

"Will anyone respond to us?"

"Definitely, I don't believe the three of us are the only ones in a huge city who haven't slept. ”

"It's almost dawn, maybe it's the same as it says on the radio, everything will be back to its original state as soon as it dawns......"

As soon as the short Rogers spoke, there was another muffled sound.

In the sky, not far from the Hanging Gardens, dozens of unknown creatures crashed into the defensive barrier, this time dodging the first wave of attacks until they hit the barrier and slid to the ground in a blur.

"Those are ferocious beasts, fierce beasts described in hunting wars. Tom pulled out the collector's edition player he had just purchased from his bedroom.

The metal box contains the playback and a picture book on vellum.

"This movie is in the form of a documentary, telling the story of an ordinary soldier who accidentally joined the mercenary team and finally became a hero who saved mankind on the hunting battlefield, you see, is this very similar to the fierce beast that fell just now?"

Tom resisted his desire to recommend a movie, opened his picture book, "See, it's exactly the same, 'Randy Bird, with four or six wings, up to 180 meters long'." ”

"But isn't the hunting war long over, the fierce beast only exists in urban legends, and it has long been gone, why did it suddenly appear?"

"How is it possible that there has been no news at all for so many years?"

A few people began to reminisce, but whenever they thought deeply about the history of hunting warfare, their minds would go blank, and they could not remember more history.

Only Tom, because of his love for movies, can remember some of the plots and pictures portrayed in the movies, and he doesn't know anything else.

"I can't remember. ”

"How come you don't have any impressions?"

This discovery caused inexplicable fear to rise in the hearts of several people.

They knew that the hunting battle existed, but why couldn't they recall any relevant memory images, blank, blank.

"Malibu"

"Malibu"

"Ha" Malibu, who had been called several times in a row, finally came back to his senses, and some strange images flashed back in his mind, some things he had done many times, and he actually made completely different choices about the same thing, and those seemingly unrelated images kept appearing.

"What's wrong with you. ”

Malibu was dizzy in front of his eyes, and his body shook a few times, "I have a headache, maybe too frightened." ”

"Do you remember those two people who appeared and disappeared all of a sudden?"

"Do you think this has something to do with them?"

"The trackers were wearing uniforms with city defense symbols. ”

"Maybe we shouldn't be nosy, or we'll sleep with the quilt on our dorm room. Rogers hesitated to propose.

At this moment, the communication band, which had not received a response, actually voiced "Hey, hey, is there anyone, help me, help me......"

"Is there anyone, I'm on 12th Street in the North District, and I'm surrounded by fierce beasts here, all dead, all dead......"

The intermittent sound came from the communication, making the three students stunned on the spot, what died, how many people died.

The three students who couldn't sleep felt a cold sense of reality from this desperate cry for help, everything that happened tonight was so bizarre that they would rather be dreaming.

The team of bionic robot guards entered the academy, and the trio quickly shifted their positions back to the dorm room after discovering this, turning off the lights and pretending to be asleep in Tom's single dorm room.

"Will they search dormitory by dormitory?"

Rogers' whispered question shook the other two, unable to rule out this possibility.

"I disguised myself in the dorm before I came, and they didn't want to wake anyone else. ”

Hypnosis can be successful once, but there is no guarantee that it will succeed a second or third time in a short period of time.

The bionic guards patrolled the classrooms on the streets of College Square, unaware that several groups of people who had not fallen asleep had been caught in their academy while they were hiding.

Thundered!

Thundered!

"It's raining," Tom curled up at the foot of his desk and looked up at the window, thunder and lightning were blowing, the rain was beating on the window, the sound of falling rain was crisp, and the raindrops dripped down the window edge in a line.

Lightning and thunder roared, and it rained all over the city, and the rain washed the streets and alleys, leaving no corner unturned.

The citizens who did not fall asleep and dared to go outdoors to explore for various reasons, even if they were lucky not to be put down by the beast, they could not escape the large amount of sleeping narcotics in the rain.

The warning sound in the light curtain of the advertisement was unaffected by the heavy rain, and it was played over and over again, and the bionic guard patrol shuttled through all corners of the city, their task was not to stop the beast but to find the citizens who had gone out, and to ensure that they were hypnotized and delivered to the designated place in time.

Two palm-sized, paper-thin metal discs slashed through the air, disappearing in the pouring rain.

Flakes flew in the rain, searching for biometric information of registered citizen codes, and a glimmer of green light flickered at the top.

The inspection committee base control room is being observed remotely.

"Thirty citizens found on Ninth Avenue in Nanhu District"

Seeing thirty people appear in the light curtain, the probe scanned for biological information to be transmitted to the base control center.

"It's dead. The investigator calmly proceeded with the report and followed the process to submit another report upwards

"Ninth Avenue found the body and requested a recovery team. ”

There are tens of thousands of holographic light curtains in the transparent cube room, which play real-time images of the city from different angles, and constantly adjust their direction with the movement of the surveillance and detectors, and a hundred investigators need to be responsible for the real-time dispatch of the entire area.

The investigator wearing special contact lenses sits in a theater-style room, his hands sliding through the void.

They were receiving far more than what was being shown in the room at the moment, and this was just one of the South Lakes districts, and the rest of Peters City was suffering from the same crisis.

A deacon looked at the report that had just arrived, the death toll was still beating upward, and the corners of his eyes and mouth were completely indifferent and impatient, "Find these disobedient corpses as much as possible, and don't forget to let them make a list, these people need to be specially recorded." ”

"Your Excellency, of the currently known list, twenty-three people are already on the orange alert list. ”

The deacon did not react in any way to hearing this number, which was negligible compared to the population of Peters City.

However, there is nothing to be left out of, and any small mistake or omission can lead to unpredictable failures in the operation of Peters City, and the more sophisticated and complex the instrument, the more careful maintenance is required.

The deacon glanced at the wall clock at the top of the hall, the hands swaying from side to side.

"Blessed by the stars. ”

Just deal with those damn beasts, and everything will be back to normal when the next cycle day begins, and all the troubles will be solved.

As for the Imperial Capital Star, if it can't be solved as soon as possible, there can only be one way in the end.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency's request for communication. ”

"Connect immediately. ”

In front of Deacon Leo appeared Caris's fast-moving figure, and the beasts that were swallowed by the mire in her view.

"The death lists in the districts have appeared, the situation is under control for the time being, as long as the death toll does not continue to expand, everything is under our control. ”

"Leo, I don't have time to listen to this nonsense. Carris's voice was soft but implied warning.

Everything under control?

Carris Duchen hoped that this was true, but in fact, the biggest destabilizing factor was uncertain at the moment, and chaos was the only accurate description she could think of at this time.

Perhaps it is the illusion of peace during the countless cycle days that most people have lost their due vigilance and crisis response ability, even if time has not moved forward in a sense, the years that they repeat every cycle day are real.

Carris conveys a series of mission instructions through secret words.

Deacon Leo looked a little surprised at first, then listened quietly.

"Do what I say, it's a big deal, and I'm sure you can do it well. ”

Leo showed a little struggle and hesitation on his face, and did not accept the task order at the first time, "But the chief deacon ...... him"

"Leo, it's because of the absence of the chief deacon that we need to take over, which is in line with Peters' emergency code, and I have authority. ”

This means that the previous words were not a request, but an order and an inform.

Ending communication with the Inspectorate base, Carris continued to attempt to speak to Kasol, but the signal was so jamming that it was apparently intercepted.

Not only Casul, but Carris couldn't even get in touch with the person she had arranged for her in the city network, and never responded.

"Deacon"

When the investigator in charge of the temporary command center of Dongtai District saw Caris, he stood up in surprise, "Your Excellency Du Chen"

Carris crossed her hands to her chest and looked up at the scene, the cracks in the sky, the situation in Dongtai District was even more severe than in Nanhu District.

"How's it going?"

"The number of fierce beasts is within a controllable range, but the cracks in the dense fog sealed area appear too quickly to be repaired, and the spatial energy fluctuations have triggered the large-scale appearance of small space storms. ”

The root cause is still the Imperial Capital Star, and the spatial energy fluctuations it caused have had a great impact on the stability of Peters City.

Carris raised her hand, and the hands of the vintage watch on her wrist kept shaking, not just the spatial energy fluctuations.

Those silver rays are the biggest potential threat.

It doesn't matter if you solve the source of the trouble that caused all this, then slowly clean up the beast, and repair the cracks in the forbidden area.

Calis Du Chen is ready, just waiting for the time when the plan starts, and whether he can ensure the successful execution of the entire plan still requires the cooperation of Mo Ye, who holds the star key.

"Blessed by the Stars" Caris Duchen prayed with great pity, and she hoped that Casul's mission would be successfully completed.

On the other hand, in the desert of the Imperial Capital Star, most of the area was still in the range of pale silver light, and when the spatial collision became more intense and closer to Peters City, the range of pale silver light dissipation also expanded.
