In the face of the sudden change, the three of them were stunned, and in the end, it was the middle-aged man who reacted first: "Hurry up", he shouted, he didn't care to go, he couldn't take the camera, and the old man quickly jumped off the small mound, and galloped towards the small mountain beam when he came

The roar came from far and near, and the blood spirit roots behind them were like a large red tide, and countless thorny vines rose high, like blood-colored and angry dragons, covering the sky and the sun, and smashing down towards the three of them with a large shadow

Fortunately, the three of them were not close to the place where the blood spirit root grows, and when the three of them struggled to climb the mountain beam, the thick vines of the blood spirit root had already occupied the foot of the mountain, and they trembled incessantly, slowly stretching the blood-red thorny vines to the mountain beam, but finally because the length was not enough, they gradually quieted down

The three of them didn't look behind them at all, and ran desperately all the way to the valley in the distance, where an off-road vehicle was parked in the barren grass

"I'm going to ...... Take this terrible news...... Report...... To give...... Imperial Academy of Sciences," the old man gasped from time to time, and ran as he ran with the support of the two of them

The green SUV rushed forward with smoke and dust, and the valley behind them was completely occupied by the Blood Spirit Root

"Teacher" Half an hour later, the middle-aged man finally said the first sentence while driving

The old man snorted and said, "That's indeed crawling out of the gravel pit, it's like a black crab, what the hell is it?"

"Teacher, do you say that this has anything to do with the legendary apocalypse, how do I think it looks exactly like an alien invasion of the earth," said the young man, who sat next to him and took the old man by the hand

"How is it possible that extraterrestrial creatures have long been proven to be non-existent, you are a scientific researcher, you must always say it on the basis of facts, don't take the things in science fiction as scientific discussions"

"But how do you explain it?" said the young man, unwillingly

The old man sighed: "Report to the Imperial Academy of Sciences and let them decide" His gaze looked directly into the distance through the windshield in front of him, he felt that the sudden burst of 'Blood Spirit Root' was all caused by that red fluctuation, and he had a more urgent premonition that a global catastrophe seemed to be quietly approaching

……

The morning sun in Anping Town was white

The wind blew away the thick blood mist, revealing nearly 400 corpses lying quietly on the ground, lying on the cracked earth, leaning or attaching or bending or stretching out limbs and heads, all of them with hideous and terrifying faces, everything that happened today was beyond the control of any one person

The villa has been completely reduced to ruins, and the huge earth pits and fallen trees that have been shattered seem to describe the horror of the first battle, and the glass below the fifth floor of the mayor's office building in the distance has been shattered, and a lightning-like crack on the tall building is very eye-catching

All this in front of him has laid the groundwork for an endless war in the near future

The morning news and soft morning song were playing in the street lamps crooked to the side of the road, and the soft morning song was in the strongest contrast to the scene in front of them, and after a pleasant soft music, a female announcer's voice came out: " According to the observation of the Observatory, at 2:06 a.m. today, five gravels from the direction of the second constellation of the South Gate fell into the uninhabited area of 160 kilometers deep in China's Yinlong Mountain, and no casualties have been found at present, and when the gravel passed through the low-earth orbit, it affected the detection function of the satellite that had just been successfully launched, and the scientists were making every effort to activate the satellite backup program, and some experts said that the fall of the gravel was a natural phenomenon and had nothing to do with the rumored apocalyptic destruction......

More than a dozen armored vehicles quickly rushed to the scene of the battle, followed by two hospital ambulances, Ge Zhiping slowly got down from the armored vehicles, and was surprised to see the scene, and the degree of tragedy far exceeded his imagination

He looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, frowned slightly for a while, and waved his hand to the team members behind him: "Register them one by one, and transport them to the crematorium without a heartbeat, and transport them to the hospital with a heartbeat, and the clerk quickly reports to Gu Feng to explain everything here."

The team saluted and moved quickly in groups of two

Ge Zhiping and Li Zhipeng sat on the roof of the car, he took out a cigarette and gave it to Li Zhipeng, and after Li Zhipeng refused, he took it to his mouth and took a deep breath

"Is this over?" asked Li Zhipeng

Ge Zhiping shook his head: "It doesn't seem like it will."

"Why," Li Zhipeng asked

Ge Zhiping smiled: "Balance Jiang Feng Group will not make any more moves, and the three families joining forces cannot be united as one, so that the empire will send a senior officer to deal with it hastily, and at most reach out to the four families to ask for some money as a fine."

It turned out that in the internal political center of the Nine Heavens Empire, it had already been divided into two opposing factions, one was the power-grabbing faction led by the imperial prime minister Jia Fengzhen, and the other faction was the power-protecting faction headed by the imperial marshal Lei Tiancheng

The twelve national protector army corps of the empire did not want to get involved in disputes, and seemed to be outside of politics, but in fact they were the object of the two factions, there were signs that Jia Fengzhen, who was seizing power, was likely to win, taking advantage of the failure of the Battle of Altar Mountain ten years ago, Jia Fengzhen immediately proposed to Emperor Zhu Long to impeach Lei Tiancheng several times, Zhu Long finally agreed to Jia Fengzhen's request, and successfully promoted his nephew Sheng Lin to the imperial marshal

In fact, the royalists had already failed, but many of the twelve corps of the Protector Army still supported the former Imperial Marshal Lei Tiancheng, so the two factions were still at loggerheads

The old emperor Zhu Long was dying, leaving three sons and one daughter, and the eldest son Zhu Xingyun was naturally made the crown prince, but Jia Fengzhen was bent on letting the second son Zhu Huanjin succeed to the throne, so the battle for the prince was extremely cruel

Due to the existence of two factions, one side asks to send troops to stop the riots, and the other side will inevitably oppose it, so this army will not be sent out no matter what, not to mention that the army of strange beasts is watching from the side, they can reach a consensus, and sending some people to defend Changtai is already a terrible move, and the empire will never be entangled in this issue

The battle between the four major groups is what both sides want to see within the empire, neither side wants one of the four major groups to become big to threaten their rule, at least they don't want the balance to be broken, which is also the main reason why the four major groups dare to fight hard, and this shocking bloody case in Anping Town is actually the result of the confrontation of the four major groups

Jiang Feng Group instructed the Moon Dragon Gang to infiltrate Anping Town, and cut off the Anping branch of the Dragon Group as a warning, and did not want the Dragon Group Big Ape and his party to cut off the Moon Dragon Gang again, and the Moon Dragon Gang got the news and set up an ambush outside the villa, which led to this big war

Jiang Feng Group's own strength is relatively strong, with the support of the Moon Dragon Gang, and it is inextricably linked with the special task force, but it is not easy to destroy the three major groups, on the other hand, it is impossible for the three major groups to destroy Jiang Feng Group together, but it is impossible for the three to unite, but they still calculate their own accounts, and they are afraid that a certain company will take the opportunity to become bigger during this period and swallow itself, so the four major groups have once again formed a stalemate after Jiang Feng Group ceded Anping City

And it's going to be here for a long time

"The team leader has cleaned up all the bodies, a total of 361 bodies, and another 12 people are still alive and taken to the hospital," a team member reported to Ge Zhiping

"Collect the troops" Ge Zhiping waved his hand and sat in the car

"Report Captain: A fire broke out at the headquarters of the Einsatzgruppen and the fire was uncontrollable," another member of the team reported

"The fire brigade tried their best to put out the fire, and told them that the fire truck was full of water and couldn't go fast," Ge Zhiping replied

"Report that there was a big explosion at the branch of the Changjiang Feng Group, and all the houses collapsed, and the casualties are being counted," a team member held up a phone to report to him

Ge Zhiping scratched his head: "Let's all stay away, don't increase the casualties, and report to me after the statistics of the specific situation."

He put down the phone and smiled at Li Zhipeng beside him: "Anping Town is purified this time."

Li Zhipeng also smiled and nodded

The imperial capital of Gufeng City

This is the political, economic and cultural center of the Han nation, the triple city wall up to 100 meters guards this place like an iron bucket, the market outside the city is all over the countryside, the first city wall is mostly inhabited by the common people of Gufeng City, the second city is inhabited by the empire's tycoons, rich and 230,000 people, ordinary people are not allowed to enter, the third city is the residence of the high-ranking officials and ministers centered on the imperial palace, the number of residences is scarce, but it is extremely large, of course, here is headed by the imperial palace

The palace of the Nine Heavens Empire is simple and elegant, white and flawless, like a piece of beautiful jade

The palace of the prince was unusually quiet, and a slender and elegant-looking young man sat on a swivel chair and looked intently at a copy of the "Anthology of the Tang and Song Dynasties", which could be seen from the color of the book, which was an ancient book

On the wall, next to a computer, a little girl was playing a game intently, and she let out a burst of exclamations from time to time, and her two little hands danced quickly on the keyboard, and then kept swiping the mouse

"Sister, you make a little noise," the young man frowned slightly, stroked the glasses that slipped to the bridge of his nose, and was a little reluctant to scold the little girl, the little girl stared at the two big eyes of the garden, and smiled strangely: "Brother, I have already earned twelve thousand gold coins."

The young man raised his eyebrows: "Oh, remember to give some to my brother"

"Hey" The little girl looked at the young man, grinned, and the two small dimples disappeared in a flash, and then buried her head in the computer screen again

"Report to the crown prince, Lord Luo Tiefeng, asking to see," one of the guards knelt down on one knee and said

The young man stood up suddenly: "Please" This young man with an elegant face is the prince of the Nine Heavens Empire, Zhu Xingyun, and the little girl playing the game is the prince's sister Zhu Caiyun
