Chapter 35: Flatland
These insects really win by quantity, or they don't come, and if they come, they won't be overwhelming and piled up at any time. There are thirty or forty that can be seen in the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info visually, and the ones in the distance are too small to see clearly.
The giant centipede, not only in quantity, but also in quality, such a long, so big thing flew in the sky, and also arched and floated past, just like seeing slugs crawling all over the ground, indescribably weird and disgusting.
And they were on the mountain, looking down from the woods, and could see the whole picture, even the nearest one, with a watermelon-like limb on its back.
About half an hour later, the one in front had covered the entire sky over the city, covering the city from the ground.
"Woo~" With the sound of a strange sound, the giant centipede that blocked the city, its body lit up, and the soles of their left and right feet also emitted dazzling blue light, and for a time the entire dark city was illuminated again, and the light blue light would be broken into a shell of the city to shine extraordinarily dazzling, dazzling white... Suddenly, the blue light suddenly brightened, so bright that people had to close their eyes.
He Ningyan and they can only close their eyes, or temporarily block them with their hands, otherwise this bright light can blind people's eyes.
"Woo~" In the strange low frequency, a loud sound of "boom~" was heard, and the ground shook with it.
The light disappeared, and all the teammates slowly opened their eyes, put their hands down, and the giant centipede continued to move forward...
And you can see the "city" beneath them ... There is no city left, only ruins, not a single building still standing, not a single room still stands... The city is gone...
Everyone was shocked and looked at each other, and no one dared to speak. If these monsters are alarmed, they fly to the mountain and come for a while, then it is possible to believe that the whole mountain can be flattened.
Sit on the spot, and in the mid-air outside the mountain, a large number of robot monsters are passing by.
Every time they pass a place, they do the same, flattening the place. No less than three times, a miserable blue light flickered up, from a long distance like the flash of a camera, until it came here.
It took about two hours for the strange flying objects to move away. Looking from the mountain, a blood-red remnant sun hung in the western sky, and the dense black dots in the afterglow became farther and farther away.
The city of the past is gone, and it seems that everything is a dream. When I came out in the morning, there were at least a dozen skyscrapers and hundreds of 30-story buildings left in the city, and even if there was only an empty shell left, at least it was still standing there.
Looking through the binoculars, there was nothing now, the ground was full of broken reinforced concrete, and there was not a single house, not even a simple toilet.
Looking at everything in the telescope, He Ningyan could hardly describe his current mood.
"Let me see, let me see~" Dick anxiously wanted to see.
Handing the telescope to Dick, she let out a long sigh with apprehension in her heart: "I don't know what will happen to the people inside." β
There are still people alive in this city, there are almost fifty underground shelters alone, and there must be people on the other side of the city, there must be people alive there as well. And this time it's hard to say.
Andre squinted at her: "It's good to get used to it." β
The phrase "it's good to get used to it" hides how many experiences.
"Probably not, it says it's atomic/bomb-proof. "It was difficult for He Ningyan to be hard-hearted for a while, after all, those were all living people, and they had lived together. If she were one of them, she would want to live, no matter how difficult it was.
"It's hard to say, depending on whether it's just light against the building, or if the people and the building are shattered together. Huang Weiguo's body was still relatively weak, so he sat down slowly holding on to the tree: "Don't think too much, such things will happen often in the future, it's too late to be sad." β
"Have you seen enough, let me see!" Leah and Dick scrambled for binoculars.
I only heard the sound of "oops", and I felt bad, and sure enough, the telescope was in the scramble and fell, but there was a slope below.
Watching the telescope slide down the slope and down the edge of the cliff, Leah screamed, "It's all your fault, it's your letting go." β
"You snatched it and dropped it in your hand!" Dick cried out unconvinced.
"What now, go pick it up!" Leah jumped on her feet, "It's just a telescope." β
Seeing that Dick was about to go, He Ningyan grabbed Dick: "It's not worth it to die for one thing, not to mention, you still have an injury to your arm." β
"That's it, what's there!" said Leah, nonchalantly.
He Ningyan sneered: "Since it's nothing, you go." β
Leah was stunned, at this time it could not be said that Dick was a man, he had to go, and Dick was still injured. So he turned to Andrei: "The telescope is going to fall, you see what to do." β
Andre looked at Leah coldly: "Don't make an example, drop something, no matter whose fault it is, as long as you have your share, you must pick it up, unless I am not your navigator." β
This proves that AndrΓ© will not pick it up, nor will he let Dick go, let alone anyone else. Leah didn't dare say anything more.
Everyone sits, leaning against the tree. It's time for dinner, but no one has an appetite, but they have to eat. If you don't eat, you don't have the strength, and when you encounter danger, you die faster.
After He Ningyan felt this, he used to eat three meals a day, but now he has two meals a day, and from time to time, he often eats when he is free, or he is so hungry that he can't eat indiscriminately... Once upon a time, three meals a day, where to eat, what to eat... Forgot again.
After eating a few cookies, Andrei suddenly said, "Finish eating and leave." β
"Where?" Dick asked, no one knowing why they were leaving.
Andrei replied: "If these things are aimed at humans, then every place where there are humans will not be spared. Here, it's not safe. β
"Where are you going?" Dick took the compressed biscuit bag in one hand, tore it open with his mouth, took out the biscuit inside and ate it, "Where can you go, do you want to go back and see if those people are still alive?"
He Ningyan also felt very slim: "If we encounter cockroaches and spiders, how can we survive? If those things fly back and blow up again, they won't be dead?"
"The rule of life, never stay in the same place for too long, unless it has to! If we are still in the same place, we don't know whether we are dead or alive. Eat and leave, hurry. AndrΓ© sped up as he finished speaking, gulping down the compressed biscuits and swallowing them with water.
As the sun begins to set, it is already close to the horizon. After the city is gone, the front is unusually empty, and you can see far, far away. At sunset, the originally prosperous city was only a pile of broken bricks and rubble, covered with a lingering layer of dead air.
