After the best friend is gone.

Meng Chao leaned on the railing of the rooftop alone, watching the sun set.

Otherworldly stars are larger and more intense than Earth's Sun.

The clouds are steaming, and the sky and the city are turning into a sea of red.

Standing in the middle of the Red Sea, is a majestic tower.

Mixed with alloys made of rare metals from other worlds, the ductility and compression resistance of building materials have been greatly improved, and the tower has broken through the limits of skyscrapers in the Earth Age, as if piercing the sky and going straight to the universe.

Small points of light shimmer around the tower, hovering and flying, like a swarm of bees entering and exiting the hive.

Those are transcendental.

This majestic building, called the "Transcendent Tower", is the headquarters of the Transcendent Society.

Around the transcendent tower, buildings that seem to be a combination of pyramids and fortresses are lined up one after another.

All as strong as gravity dams, strong enough to withstand the onslaught of the most powerful monsters.

Between the high-rise buildings, countless small black dots are flying off the walls.

They are all ordinary citizens who have just gotten off work.

Resources are scarce and space is tight, and in this era of Dragon City, there are few private cars and taxis.

Ordinary citizens are full of physical strength, smart body, and long-distance running is not much slower than a one-stop bus.

There is also a "three-dimensional mobile suit" that simulates the limbs of monsters and is made using the principle of bionics.

Wearing it, it is full of elasticity, and it can also be jetted, and with a slight jump, you can jump out of ten or twenty meters, and the speed of forty or fifty kilometers per hour is not a problem.

In the distance, there are "giant sandworms" domesticated by humans, arching one by one, swallowing rocks like a shield machine to build the No. 12 subway line.

Farther away, on the edge of the city, the fog shrouded.

It is like a high gray wall that covers the sky and the sun, blocking everything in the outside world.

Once upon a time, Meng Chao didn't like fog.

I feel that the fog has sealed Dragon City, hindering the earthlings from expanding outward and killing all directions.

He didn't really like the city in front of him.

The buildings in Dragon City are too dense, the streets are too crowded, the cultivation pressure is too great, and I can't see the real mountains and seas, so I always feel a little aggrieved.

He, like all teenagers, has peeked at too many books and movies about the planet.

In my dreams, I was in the blue sky and white clouds, the air was fresh, quiet and beautiful, and people were carefree.

Everything on Earth.

Mountains, oceans, farmlands, rivers, rivers.

Secondary school students only have two physical education classes a week, but they are able to take dozens of Chinese and math classes.

Adults only need to work eight hours a day, only five days a week, they can make a lot of money, live in a big house, go on vacation often, and eat delicious food that is pure and green, pollution-free and non-genetically modified.

It's like heaven.

Until in a nightmare, after seeing the fog lift, the real otherworld.

I've seen the Transcendent Tower and the entire city, all wiped out in the bloom of a meteor shower.

Meng Chao realized how lovely everything in front of him was.

The eye sockets unconsciously warmed up.

The earth is a homeland that cannot be returned.

The nightmare is tomorrow yet to come.

In front of you is the only home.

Faced with an unclear future and an impending crisis, he is nervous, excited, impulsive, and a little lost.

That's when —

["Reckless Bull Decision" is spreading among ordinary citizens, and the overall combat effectiveness of Dragon City has increased, with a contribution value of +1, +3, +2......]

The fire was shining in front of him, and a series of contribution points made him surprised and delighted.

"It's a fat bear, and he's running a study group.

"It seems that even if it is not me who directs it, but indirectly spreads, I have contributed.

"Although the contribution value is much less than personally instructing, but as more and more citizens become stronger, I will continue to grow stronger, and we will definitely survive in the other world."

In a flash.

Meng Chao felt that his waist was no longer sore, his legs were no longer painful, his memory had become clearer, and his eyesight and hearing had been slightly improved.

Even the red school emblem on the chest has become more colorful.

The contribution value has increased to 39.

"It's a good feeling to contribute!" Meng Chao thought sweetly.

At this time, the roar of propellers was heard in the sky.

Dozens of armored airships tore through the sea of clouds, like a majestic fleet, cleaving the waves and swooping down.

Lack of aviation fuel, the hedron engine is too bulky, plus Dragon City is shrouded in fog, the cruising altitude and range are quite limited, supersonic fighters or something, have long been sealed in the underground arsenal.

The current air force in Dragon City is mainly clumsy, slow, but ferocious armored airships.

The hedron shattered, and the psionic energy surged, driving three rows of six propellers to rotate at high speed.

The large amount of aura released just filled the huge air sacs to maintain the buoyancy of these behemoths.

There was also aura leaking out of the gaps in the airbags, making a "snort" whistle, making the armored airship look like a steel god and demon flying through the clouds.

The armored airship lowered its loudspeaker and announced to the whole city:

"All citizens, please pay attention, the latest news from the Municipal Meteorological Bureau, there is a fog tonight, and the monster will break into the city.

"The main area where the monster appears is predicted to be the area around the steel plant in the north of the city.

"The Survival Committee issued Order No. 93 of the 55th year of the new era, ordering the Longgang Group to immediately enter the first level of combat readiness, Jiusha District and Jiangbin District to enter the second level of combat readiness, and the rest of the areas to enter the third level of combat readiness.

"Always remember that we are the expeditionary force of the earth, the earth is with us, and Dragon City will win!"

The weather forecast is an order.

Suddenly, whether inside and outside the campus or on the streets, the pace of students, workers and white-collar workers has accelerated to a faster pace.

"There's a monster attacking the city tonight?" Meng Chao's heart sank.

Hurriedly threw the schoolbag behind his back, took three steps and made two steps, and went downstairs in a whirlwind, out of the school gate, and rushed to the bus stop.

The speed of the three-dimensional maneuver suit is too fast, the bounce is too high, and it is easy to have accidents, so it is necessary to check the purchase and wearing.

Meng Chao is still two months away from being eighteen years old, and he is not qualified to take the "three-dimensional traffic license", so he can only take the bus honestly.

The monster struck, the city's operation efficiency instantly improved a lot, and the bus soon came.

The buses of this era were also psionically driven, carrying a huge hedron engine that resembled a hunchback, also known as the "turtle car".

It also "whined" and spewed aura, like an ancient steam train entering the station.

The fuel of the bus is the inferior spar, rich in impurities, the reaction is not sufficient, and the aura spewed out has the smell of garlic, and it is a little spicy.

The passengers on the platform were coughing.

"Dad, Mom, little sister!"

Meng Chao rubbed his eyes and couldn't wait to squeeze on the bus.

……

Tin Fook Court is a public rental housing community that can be found everywhere in the old city.

The Monster War lasted for thirty years, and a large number of buildings that had crossed over from Earth were destroyed.

Modeled after the War Fortress, the Survival Council has built a large number of new, impregnable dwellings.

The most important thing is defense, and as a trade-off, comfort comes second.

The main units of Tin Fook Court are all 60 square meters of two-bedroom and one living room, which sounds okay, but in these years, residential buildings and office buildings have to reserve a lot of space to set up machine guns, anti-aircraft artillery positions and shelters.

The walls are also three times as thick as before, and each wall is load-bearing.

As a result, the shared area has also reached more than twice that of the Earth Age.

The saleable area is up to 30 square meters, and each room is as small as a sparrow cage.

In order to protect the city and open up the needs of the other world, the survival committee encouraged childbirth, and while the population skyrocketed, the community facilities were aging, illegal buildings appeared one after another, and the environment became even worse.

Sewage is flowing sideways, the stench is overflowing, pipes that have been in disrepair are leaking, and the aura "squeaks" like a hundred whistles have been installed.

Residents are reluctant to buy high-grade spars as family fuel, they are all cheap goods with a grade of buses, too many impurities, too much smell, the whole community is immersed in colorful aura all day long, like a barbecue street.

In addition, the armor on the exterior walls of residential buildings has been mottled by the monster acid, which makes it even more messy and grotesque.

The residents here do not want to move out of Tin Fook Court all the time.

Adults are idle, so they like to teach their children: "I don't practice well, I only know how to memorize Tang poems and Song lyrics every day, what's the use of this thing?" When can I be admitted to the undergraduate, be an extraordinary, live in a 120-square-meter commercial housing community, and our family's ancestral grave on the earth will be smoking! ”

Meng Chao stood at the door of the vegetable market at the edge of the community, but he didn't complain at all, only warm memories.

"Finally, home!"

He heard a familiar voice coming from the market:

"Snail meat, snail meat just fished out of the river, look, it's still biting!"

"Fresh sword halberd demon pig liver, go home and give it to the child to eat, 100 points in the door exam, you can kill the monster with your fists, second uncle, don't you come to a piece?"

"Why is ironclad rhinoceros still so expensive today? Xiaosi, don't lie to your aunt, the news has said that the army has just encircled and suppressed an ironclad rhinoceros nest, at least thousands of tons of beef have been killed, how can it be cheaper! ”

"Jasper fruit, the newly cultivated jasper fruit of the gene farm, is more delicious than the peaches on the earth, juicy and sweet, unripe and sweet, no money!"

Bustling, fireworks in the world.

Meng Chao laughed.

He took a greedy puff of the aroma wafting from the delicatessen stall, walked through the vegetable market, and walked into Tianfu Yuan.
