Chapter 455: The Beginning

Time is like water, and time is like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, ten years have flown by.

Since the First World War of that year, Fang Yuan had mysteriously disappeared, and the hermitage of the Central Continent and the God and Demon Alliance of the East and West Continents searched the world, but they couldn't find any trace, and in the end they had to be gone.

In the past ten years, because of the changes in aura, the whole world has undergone earth-shaking changes, the remnants of the kingdom continue to disintegrate, the inconvenience of transportation, and the ferocity of the beast tide have caused various abilities and cultivators to take advantage of the situation, and the power of the country has been weakened to the limit, and it has been replaced by various local forces.

In the blink of an eye, it is already the end of 1023, and the fourth shock is coming!

As in the past, the Comet of the Spirit King will appear high in the sky at this time, indicating that the concentration of the aura will reach its peak, and it will slowly fall into decline.

An aura cycle is only about a hundred years, and then it will enter a new stage of another thousand years of reincarnation.

But this time, the powerhouses of the Gods and Demons Alliance and the Hermit Sect have already made sufficient preparations, and they will no longer accept the fate of the seal, but will fight to the death!

……

Huiming City.

Half of the city, which had been destroyed, was now thriving again.

The concentration of hundreds of thousands of people represents the extreme crowding and chaos, and from the outside world, it looks like huge concentric circles.

The outermost silver-white city wall, full of plasma cannons and formation defenses that blend science fiction and fantasy styles, brings a different style to the city.

As soon as you enter the city walls, you will feel like you have arrived in a huge slum.

All kinds of low houses are crowded together, and the smell of garbage and excrement is everywhere, and in the same way, all kinds of vendettas, thefts, fornications, and other evil deeds are also staged in turn, and it is completely based on power, without the slightest law and order.

Further inside the slums, through a wall, you will reach the elite area, where the steel high-rise buildings form apartments, the streets are clean and bright, and there are regular patrols by patrols, separated by thick walls, and the slums are simply like hell and heaven.

Some of the supernaturals, military families, and low-level scientific and technological personnel are full of them, enjoying the last bit of peace and stability.

In the same way, obtaining enough merit and money to be promoted to the elite area is also the desire of almost all the poor people outside.

It's just that many of them don't know that in the entire urban core, the smallest piece, there is also the core area.

Everything that can be enjoyed on the original earth and star, most of them can also be enjoyed here, and even because of the end times, it has become more dark and depraved.

This is the place where only the top superiors can settle, and the supernatural people above the third order also gather here, and it is the safest and most luxurious place in the entire Huiming City.

In terms of area, the core area is the smallest, followed by the elite area, and the outermost slum area occupies more than 70% of the area.

This is the reality of the last days!

"Chirp!"

Suddenly, a group of black dots appeared in the sky outside.

It was a group of blood-red feathered vultures, hideous and ugly, more than three meters wide when they spread their wings, and sharp claws, which screamed and flew down.

Smack!

On the city wall, all kinds of high-tech weapons fired directly, and many colorful lasers flashed wildly, instantly sweeping away a large number of fierce birds.

Occasionally, a few fish caught in the net broke through the artillery network, and finally crashed headlong into the light curtain force field of the formation defense, turning into a puddle of plasma.

"It's another nest of blood vultures, and it looks like the big cliff to the west must be cleared by a team of adventurers."

On the city wall, several officers looked at this scene coldly, thinking silently in their hearts.

At this time, another convoy drove from the outside world, which immediately attracted their attention.

In this era, even adventurers are in a hurry with their feet, and those who can ride a steam car must be high-rise!

"I received a signal, it's a messenger from outside, it's already filed, open the door!"

An officer checked the microphone and immediately gave the order.

Click! Click!

In the sound of many machines, the gears clashed, pried up more force, and slowly opened the giant door.

"Uh-oh-oh!"

"Finally home!"

"Haha...... Earned another life! ”

Similarly, a group of ragged adventurers waved their palms and cheered excitedly when they saw this scene.

"Those people...... It's an adventurer who set off before, right? I actually met the team and came back together, which is good luck! ”

The officer lightly ordered: "Tell me to go down, pay attention to the investigation, and also, the honor guard will go down with me to greet you!" ”

At this time, Huiming City, after ten years of development, has already formed a unique cultural system.

The fusion of technology and abilities represents a new fantasy technology, and even breaks through the barrier, can artificially synthesize food at a low cost, to supply the lower class needs of the entire city, although the taste is unbearable, but it can barely survive.

In addition, some common cultivation techniques were also widely disseminated, forming a group of adventurers.

They are the most active part of the city, and they dream all day that they can open their abilities, or cultivate to a high level, or simply fight for money and food, accept the task of Huiming City, and regularly sweep the surrounding beasts to stabilize the party.

Every time an adventurer completes a mission, it is recorded in the city system, and as long as they accumulate enough points and become an adventurer with more than four stars, they can immediately get the opportunity to settle in the elite area, which is a step to the sky.

"Uncle Yu!"

At this time, a young adventurer outside the door, looking at the convoy that was welcomed into the city, showed envy on his face: "What kind of people are these......

"It should be an envoy from another city, right?"

A ragged man next to him touched his chin, the stubble on his beard, with a hard touch like steel thorns: "I just don't know, what ...... for?"

"One day, I'm going to be like that!"

The boy watched the convoy disappear, and his uncle had to change into a flattering face, and went to slap the guards of the soldiers, and couldn't help but secretly clench his fists.

"My Captain Sun Xingchen of Huiming City, welcome all the envoys who have come from afar!"

The entering convoy stopped at a parking lot, and Zhao Daniu walked down slowly, looking at the city that had changed greatly, his face was full of emotion: "Finally...... It's back again. ”

There was a hint of pain in his eyes, and he would almost never forget the scene ten years ago.

When it was attacked, the entire city of Huiming was destroyed by a small half, and the hermitage Xinghezi took over, causing the city to be the first to get out of control and begin to develop itself.

By now, the meaning of separating one side has become very obvious.

"Welcome, Ambassador Zhao, please take a special seat and I will escort you to the core area!"

Sun Xingchen straightened his body and gave a military salute.

"Thank you!"

After ten years of experience, Zhao Daniu at this time was already middle-aged, with slightly frosty temples, and at this time he forcibly held back his emotions and boarded an elongated black car with his entourage.

"Welcome, sir!"

In the carriage, there were already two scantily clad women, one left and one right, with vaguely similar faces, maybe there was a blood relationship.

When I opened the back of the chair, a lot of fine wine appeared: "Do you want to have a drink together?" ”

The warm fragrance of nephrite was full of arms, Zhao Daniu had a momentary heartbeat, and immediately thought of Ye Yingzi, and suddenly lost any desire: "Don't get so close, pour me a drink!" ”

Holding a tall glass, watch the red wine rippling in it.

Looking outside, the gloomy gray sky, the tall and uneven shacks, and the unkempt and ragged people, seeing the signs on the convoy, they were even more frightened to disperse, and they couldn't help but envy the many poor people, Zhao Daniu only felt heavy in his heart.

All this was finally alleviated after entering the elite area.

Looking at the green belt and various department stores outside, Zhao Daniu felt that he had suddenly traveled from the Middle Ages to the modern era.

This kind of tranquility and peace, in this last days, seems even more precious, and it is simply worth protecting with life.

It's just that when I think of everything outside, it's so unwilling.

Syllable!

Finally, when he entered the core area, Zhao Daniu's anger could no longer be held back, and he slammed his fist on the body.

The body, which is made of special alloys and claims to be able to fight missiles and defend against third-order abilities, suddenly appeared with a clear fist print.

The sedan continued to run smoothly and stopped in front of a palatial villa.

Sun Xingchen personally came up to open the door: "It is worthy of being a rock man, please!" ”

Walking the red carpet and entering the palace, Zhao Daniu took a deep breath.

The white marble, the walls covered with gold and silver foil, and the huge crystal chandelier on the ceiling form a golden picture.

Although these precious metals have long been depreciated in today's world, it is needless to say that the manpower and material resources required to build such a palace are naturally needless.

At the thought of this, he felt a tightness in his chest, as if he was blocking a boulder.

"Huh...... Welcome, friends from afar! ”

With the help of the two young girls, an old man slowly walked out: "Or ...... The messenger from the capital, Mr. Zhao Daniu! ”

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

Zhao Daniu greeted and quickly remembered all the information of the other party.

This Li Rulong, together with the other four old men, formed the power core of Huiming City-the Five Elders' Association.

Of course, secretly, it was secretly manipulated and influenced by the star zygote in the hermitage.

"I'm here for the future of the whole world, and that moment is coming!"

Zhao Daniu cut straight to the point: "Unlike ordinary people, we all know what this means. ”

Perhaps, in the eyes of those ignorant people, now is the best time, technology and cultivation go hand in hand, and individuals can be extraordinary, if they can continue along this path, perhaps an incomparable civilization will be born.

But Zhao Daniu knows very well that the day of judgment is coming!

This is the catastrophe that has swept the world, and no one can escape it!

"Envoy Zhao, I already know very well what you mean!"

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Old Man Li's mouth: "It's just now...... Let's join us at the banquet that will be prepared for you! ”
