Chapter 295: Falling
Majesty shattered, eternally exhausted.
The veil of mystery burns in the firelight.
Glory is dying.
The man-made firmament collapsed.
Bronze alloy falls.
There was a loud rumbling sound, as if the wrath of the heavens shook the heavens.
The lament of the end times is played in the twilight.
Miracles fall.
"The Floating City is falling!"
The silence of Canterlot was broken by the exclamation.
After a long period of silence brought about by the shock, people came back to their senses at this moment and took a deep breath.
This was a shocking event for residents who were born and raised in Canterlot.
So much so that even if they saw it with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe it, thinking that they might be in a dream.
"Boom ......"
A large bronze alloy bottom breaks and separates from the original part.
In the light of a golden sunset.
The alloy began to fall rapidly.
People have seen the huge pusher that has been obscured by the complex alloy pattern for a long time.
Hundreds of pushers...... Just the tip of the iceberg that has been exposed.
The jet vent of the black hole is like a strange eye.
Some are still spewing blazing fireworks, and some have been completely extinguished.
And there are more and more pushers that are extinguished, like a series of dim street lamps on the eve of dawn.
Floating City didn't know how to drown out the sound of these pushers.
Therefore, some residents of Central City believe that the city can float in the sky, which is a manifestation of miracles.
The facts speak for everyone.
All miracles are man-made.
It's falling.
Slowly falling......
"If you smash it down...... There are still a lot of people in that shadow, do these bigwigs fight without regard for the safety of civilians? ”
"I've already moved, and yesterday I saw them drag their families to the development zone in the eighth district."
"I'm moving this morning."
It's in the 8th arrondissement of Canterlot.
Many people who have just moved in have moved out of their new homes.
The fear in their hearts is completely proportional to the shock.
Yesterday, I heard from the people at the secret gate that they said that the floating city might fall, but in fact, many people didn't believe it.
That city had been on the throne for so long that everyone in Canterlot thought it would last forever.
They moved out mainly because...... Money.
Miss Xia gave too much money.
"Actually...... Really fell down. ”
If you want to say that the last thing to be afraid of is the group of people who are still unwilling to move away.
They were knocked unconscious and carried out.
The people in the secret door are not bad, and they have moved out all the valuable things in their homes, electrical passbooks, etc.
In this way, I felt a pain in the back of my head and a black eye.
When I woke up again, I had already arrived at my new home, and all the old furniture had been moved.
The first thing many people say when they wake up is: This new home is really beautiful.
……
Floating city at dusk.
It was supposed to be a quiet day.
People leave work early and enjoy a laid-back life with high benefits, and all the extra work is handled by robots.
The greatest pleasure of these residents of the Floating City these days is nothing more than watching the news of the Netherworld, listening to people talk about the tragic situation of the Western city, and then sighing that the Heavenly City is comfortable.
But now they're all out of the house.
Power was lost throughout the city.
Various flying vehicles were inexplicably disturbed and began to go on a rampage uncontrollably.
Even the four Divine Eyes between the two layers of canopy began to go out of orbit.
Tens of thousands of rioting mechanical instruments smashed through the two layers of the canopy, and the huge canopy modules fell from the sky and smashed down on the ground of the floating city.
"What's going on?"
The proud inhabitants of the Floating City suddenly began to panic.
Because they felt the earth tremble and shake.
The city was like a dying sick man, wailing hoarsely, and the pain was draining its blood and spinal cord little by little, making it unable to bear such a huge weight any longer.
"It's called, it shouldn't be a big deal."
"Yes...... But why do I feel weightless? ”
"I have it too."
The city's backup power was activated.
The street lamps on the streets, the floating buildings, all began to light up.
Light brings hope.
But many of the city's inhabitants felt no sense of peace of mind.
They are uneasy, and this has not happened in decades.
I don't know if it's because of the change in air pressure or whatever, many people feel a little uncomfortable, and the thumping heart in the chest cavity beats more and more violently.
"The Heavenly City is falling!"
Finally, someone shouted this sentence.
They don't want to admit it.
But I have to admit it.
The strong feeling of weightlessness is clearer than when you take the elevator on weekdays.
"No!"
Someone was shouting in pain.
"How can I live with those lowly reptiles in the Netherworld!"
"It's a filthy area, and my pure soul will be polluted by the filth of the Nether."
This sentence should have been full of arrogance.
But now it's full of horror.
Many of the residents of the Floating City are unwilling to face the world below, not only because of arrogance, but also because of fear.
The fear of losing one's status as a human being, the fear of those eyes that once looked up to him, now turned into eye level.
"Don't panic, believe that the council will definitely solve this accident, and we will definitely not be reduced to live in the nether."
"Yes, you believe in the council."
Quite a few people began to comfort others.
It could also be to comfort yourself.
In fact, the old guys in the council are now confused.
Sitting in wheelchairs, they came to the gates of the Houses of Parliament.
At the entrance of this floating city and even the tallest building in the entire world, they can clearly see the whole city.
The canopy of heaven shattered, and the earth collapsed.
Huge cracks spread across the city's ground, as if some monster was roaring underground.
The devastating force is like a volcanic eruption, unstoppable.
Those buildings that float in the air are fine.
As for the buildings on the ground, most of them are now crooked and shapeless, and some of them are just on the cracks, divided into two, and many of them have fallen into the ground.
"It's the ones that are left over from the summer." An old fellow said.
"His accomplice back then?"
"It should be his daughter Xia Chuluo...... I went to Mowu City this time, and I heard that his daughter was also quite outstanding, young and promising, and Xiao Luo wanted to visit at that time, but it was said that Xia Chuluo was seriously injured when he was chasing criminals, and it was inconvenient to meet guests, and now it seems that Xiao Luo was deceived at that time. Gong Liangyu said.
Xia Chuluo's true and false identities are actually not very clever.
A lot of people have used it.
But it just so happened that she was really injured.
The hospital has a certificate, and the Executive Board also has relevant materials, so it cannot be faked.
Lu Wen also occasionally took her bionic body out for a walk twice.
Many people could not have imagined that this girl would endure the pain and travel thousands of miles to Canterlot.
"But...... Did the little girl think that this would bring the Heavenly City to a ruin? An old fellow shook his head with a faint smile.
"Just fall down and go up again, maybe we have to thank that little girl, this time it made a lot of waste people who were eating and waiting to die have a sense of crisis."
"A little younger, not as old as her father."
"Luckily, it's not the second summer."
After being stunned for a few minutes, these old fellows came back to their senses and understood who had done it.
The only thing I can't figure out now is perhaps why this girl waited until now to do it.
So they ordered someone to investigate.
Soon the materials were delivered.
"Not long ago, Luo Ruyan from Mowu City fled to Central City, and posted recruitment information on the website to form a team ......"
"Luo Ruyan?"
"The leader who was working on the summer at the time."
It's been too long, these old guys are old, and their memories are not very good, and they have almost forgotten what happened at the beginning.
In the decades since its launch, Floating City has faced countless enemies.
Summer is just one of them.
The dead don't deserve the attention of these old fellows, but the summer is impressing them so much that they are still a little impressed.
As for the people who took over their tasks and were working on them in the summer, they didn't remember very well.
"Luo Ruyan died just two weeks ago, in a shop along the street in Canterlot, one arm was blown off, presumably a sniper......"
"Twenty-one people were working on the summer, and fourteen were alive two weeks ago, and these fourteen are either dead or missing at the moment, with only a few days in between."
That's all the information available.
In the middle of the middle of Xia Chuluo's itinerary was hidden by Jiang Fatzi, and it couldn't be found out in the floating city.
So these old guys don't know that Xia Chuluo has been to Eden in the north.
"This little girl is very fast, clean and neat, and her genes are pretty good." An old fellow said.
"What do you think of your genes?" The other asked with a smile.
"This ......"
Everyone else understood the meaning of the old man's question.
They all survived the years of war and put an end to chaos.
When I was young, I was also a person with outstanding intelligence and ability.
If you really want to count genes, they must be very genetically excellent.
But their offspring......
"So the Nether is indeed a place to train people."
Everyone nodded, and there was no denying it.
"This accident has actually given us a chance, it's time to change the system of the Floating City, some ...... of permanent settlement"
"Expulsion?"
"This generation can continue to live, as for the next generation...... It's up to them to see what they're trying to do. ”
"It's going to cause resentment and backlash."
"That's why I said that this is a good opportunity, you can beat some people well, let that young man of Wu Yu do it, I think that young man is quite neat."
These old guys still didn't suspect Wu Yu.
In their opinion, it should be something left over from the summer that year, which was just used by his daughter.
"At that time, I had searched very carefully, but I still couldn't find the location of those missile warheads."
"Back then, some people were helping Xia Zheng, and it was normal to not find it, so there was no need to blame yourself."
