Chapter 59: Crisis

The outside world is icy and snowy, and there is no life in the white world. The wild trees were also bent by the early wind and snow, and they outlined the size of the mountain more and more, and swelled endlessly in all directions. Animals also hid early, with the occasional few large elk crossing the valley. Their steps are very gentle, and they step on the snow, leaving a trail of fine footprints.

In the camp that was previously part of Alita's company, supplies are being distributed. An old man with a rickety figure at the campfire held a sign and shouted that the Ice Age was coming. People walked past him with expressionless faces, humans were no longer creatures at the top of the food chain, they had been living here for months, and the scene at this moment reminded them of a colony of rats in the gutter.

Mike sat silently in the middle of the camp as he received the coordinates from Alita's facility, just in case no one could come back alive to pick up the survivors.

The sky is dark, it is impossible to tell whether it is early morning or evening, people live a repetitive life like ants, losing the material of the past, and now human beings are wandering and confused.

Mike plotted the migration route on the map, and he followed Caitlin's instructions to set off directly with the survivors if he didn't receive her message the next day. They had no choice, and the food they had left was just enough for them to make a last-ditch effort.

Due to the impact of the wind and snow outside, the real-time situation has diverged from the map, and Mike can only rely on speculation to plan a route that may be most suitable. He stared blankly at the camp, there were old people, children, and infirm patients, and he didn't know how many people would make it to Alita's facility alive.

However, he had to do it, and it was the passing of the human torch. Tens of thousands of years ago, human beings did such a thing, who knew that with the development of science, they would face such a situation at this moment.

At this moment there was a commotion of the crowd in the camp, and the people around them were agitated—since the first man had inadvertently glanced at the sky.

The sky, which was originally gray and covered in various pollutants and particles, was now forcibly pierced by a beam of light that pierced the dust and inserted itself into the distant earth. After a few moments, the sky was silent again.

There was a sigh of surprise from the crowd.

Someone suddenly shouted, "The Creator has come!" Then he knelt down. Some people around me were also infected, silently and sincerely praying to heaven.

Mike was also drawn to the outside, and he pushed open the window and looked at the sky.

At that moment, a light illuminated the camp, and the light body fell rapidly, hitting the prison where the fanatics were being held, dragging a long ravine on the ground and sliding quickly in the direction of the facility. It wasn't until it hit the mountain where the facility was built that it stopped and slowly went out. Patches of snow fell from the mountain, rumbling forward until it came to a halt near the camp - the infrastructure had been built to prevent avalanches.

Mike frowned, realizing that the course of events was beyond his comprehension. After the impact just now, there were a large number of dead and wounded in the camp, and it seems that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, so I can only set off early to try my luck.

And the light just now also drew a straight path for Mike, and there is no better time than now.

Mike turned to the people behind him and said, "Quick, notify the camp to prepare for the transfer!" ”

In Alita's facility, the surrounding walls and ground began to shake violently due to the impact of "light", and the mountains outside began to collapse, and avalanches poured in.

The facility's system sensed a great crisis and automatically went into evacuation mode. It opens all the doors and temporarily releases the permissions of all devices.

On the 14th floor, the equipment tables around Jaime and Karina were shaking violently, as were the tubes, and the liquid inside swayed from side to side, signaling to them the danger they were encountering. However, Jaime and Karina ignored the shaking and the evacuation signals sounding from the building, and continued to merge. At this moment, there is nothing else in their hearts, this is the real integration, all hopes, all dreams, all feelings, are in this integration.

Jaime looked up at Jiang Ke from time to time, his body was being filled, Jiang Ke's genes were being quickly rewritten in order to accept fusion, and the silver liquid quickly flowed onto Jiang Ke's body. However, unlike Dick, those silver liquids attached to Jiang Ke's body, as if they had become his new flesh and blood.

After a large amount of Dick's previous fusion, Nadia was dying at the moment, but fortunately, all Jiang Ke needed was a normal human amount, and with Nadia's size, it was enough to supply.

90% integration progress.

The shaking of the facility has become more and more severe, and the power supply has long since stopped supplying, but fortunately, this laboratory has its own independent backup power supply, which can support it for a while.

The main body of the facility began to let out a mournful sound. It's hard to imagine how much force it would take for such a hard material to respond so painfully.

As the screams grew louder and louder, the ground began to fold and gradually be torn apart.

From the outside, the entire facility looks like a cake that has been cut into a knife, separated to the sides, and the situation on each floor is clear at a glance.

Through the gap, Catelyn, Ben, Jackson, and Ruby can be seen scattered across the floors, hiding from Dick.

The rift slowly advanced from the bottom up, reaching the level where Jaime and the others were.

The integration progress is 98%.

In the lab they were in, the cold wind was blowing in, and Karina and Jaime shivered from the cold, and they hurriedly picked up the researcher coat they had previously dedicated themselves to wrap around their bodies. Jaime rubbed his hands together desperately so that they didn't stiffen and miss a single operation.

The integration progress is 99%.

At this time, the ground had completely cracked, and many containers had been swallowed into the cracks and disappeared into the snow mist.

Jaime stared at the container where Jiang Ke was, he felt his heart beat to stop, time had never been so difficult. He prayed in his heart, "A little longer...... Just a moment ......" It was also at this moment that he thought that Dick's "Creator" would never come true, and that no one could resist the power of heaven and earth.

The ground of Nadia's container gradually cracked, and due to the huge size of the container, it could only barely get stuck, but the crack in the ground continued to expand, and finally, Nadia was swallowed by the gradually opening ground.

At this moment, the fusion is complete.

With the sound of metal pipes breaking, Nadia's container disappeared to the bottom.

"No!" Karina took two quick steps and rushed to Nadia's container. But it was too late, and Karina lay on the edge of the fractured surface, her outstretched hand frozen in the air.

On the other hand, Jaime had already quickly opened the container and helped Jiang Ke out.
