Chapter 147: Prelude to Destruction (Part II)
After that, a few more sporadic missiles broke free from gravity, broke through the blockade, and slammed into the deck of the 'spaceport' like a starry temple, leaving mottled scorch marks.
The spaceport command hall trembled slightly in the midst of the small bombardment, causing ripples of tea in the porcelain cup in front of Director Carmen, and nothing else.
However, this provocative fire still made the face of the former director of Carmen, who had been high in the sky and controlled the Garda continent for more than ten years, but was frightened before, twitch.
All the spaceport personnel hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to show any unusual looks, lest they be angered by the angry director Carmen, and directly kicked off the spaceport and became cold garbage floating in space, or they were directly stuffed into the particle cannon barrel and turned into a brilliant firework that shot towards the Garda continent...
At this moment, at the request of the director of Carmen, the symphony "The Destruction of the Empire", which was once forbidden during the First Empire, is still resounding in the conductor's hall.
It is said that the person who composed this symphony was a famous music professor at the Imperial Royal Academy, and after creating this music, he fell into a madness and committed suicide by jumping off a building in the middle of a campus in the spotlight of thousands of people.
It is like the melody of hundreds of millions of people sinking in the flames of war, constantly screaming in purgatory, and sliding down in the whirlpool, which is extremely shocking, but it makes people feel cold...
What's even more terrifying is that during the previous bombardment of the Garda continent, Director Carmen was still waving his hands like a conductor to the gripping symphony, as if he had two invisible batons in his hands, waving the heavenly fire to inflict the most severe divine punishment on those creatures on the ground who were disrespectful to him!
Looking at the big screen with an intoxicated face, watching the city of Dawn on the surface of the planet turn into a sea of fire in the bombardment, imagining the sinking and destruction of that city, as if I could hear countless people struggling and wailing in the sea of fire, begging for his forgiveness...
However, after experiencing the weak counterattack that seemed to be a mortal disobeying the Divine Mansion, this 'Divine Mansion' completely lost its former majesty and face, and even the notes that kept sliding into the abyss at this moment were like sarcasm poured out in the ears.
After the curl, Director Carmen finally calmed down his irrepressible anger, raised his eyebrows slightly, and raised his hand slightly.
The adjutant, who had been watching from the sidelines, lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, waiting for him to give orders.
"Change the navigation track, activate the particle railgun, boom here." Director Carmen points to the location of Auroville on the holographic map.
That's where the previous missiles came from.
"Yes! Excellency! ”
With the instructions of Director Carmen, reports from the various ministries came from the command hall.
"The orbit change of the Garda spaceport is complete!"
"The Particle Railgun is running out!"
"Five more before launch!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
"Launch!"
.......
On the hill on the edge of the western part of the city of Dawn, in a manor far away from the edge of the city, Emily is sitting alone on the threshold of the villa with the "Apocalypse" found in this living room, waiting for the return of David and his party.
However, she waited for a long time, but she still did not wait for them to come back, and all she waited for was the pillar of light and missiles that kept falling from the sky.
With her still empty eyes, she watched as the pillars of light and cannonballs that broke through the dark clouds fell on the city where she had lived for thirteen years, and they continued to explode violently.
Buildings are falling, cities are burning, people are running and wailing in the flames.
This shocking picture made her feel like she had returned to three years ago, when her parents, mothers and uncles rubbed her head like that, and asked her to wait at home for them to come back, but none of them came back, never again...
"Liars... It's all liars..."Emily hugged the book of Revelation tightly, shrunk her reddened nose, but her empty eyes seemed to be unable to shed tears.
At this moment, she raised her head as if she had sensed it and looked at the sky.
It was daytime, but it was like a star winking at her.
At that moment, it seemed that the originally dim sky was much brighter, and then a pillar of pure white light instantly evaporated the clouds in a radius of several hundred meters in the sky and fell into the City of Dawn.
There is not the slightest taste of the holiness of God's punishment of the world in the Book of Revelation, and there is only the most direct destruction.
However, the power of the pillar of light is far from over, when it directly and instantly evaporates all the buildings it touches, and after smashing into the earth's crust, it triggers a chain of sharp cracking explosions, and within nearly a kilometer of the center of the pillar of light, the entire ground is like a burnt bread, breaking in all directions, shattering, and flying in all directions.
The whole earth trembled.
Within that area, few people survived, and Emily could even see some of the people fleeing in all directions being lifted high along with the masonry on the ground.
And the vast majority of people have already been shocked to death in the air, or directly scorched, swept out by the shock wave, and shattered.
Even though Emily's manor was far from the center of the explosion, the terrifying shockwave arrived on time a few seconds later.
Even though it has been weakened a lot because of the spatial distance, it is still like a typhoon after being heated by an infinite charcoal fire, and I don't know how many trees have fallen on the hills.
Emily clutched her ears and screamed, but she couldn't hear her own voice at all, completely overwhelmed by the horrible rumble.
The roof of the manor villa was also directly uncovered, and Emily, who was sitting on the threshold, flew more than ten meters away like a kite with a broken string, before falling heavily into the dirt, and it took a long time to get up with difficulty, her hair was full of mud crumbs with gunsmoke, and there were scarlet blood stains on her face.
And when she looked at the city of dawn under the mountain again, the city of dawn in her memory was completely unrecognizable...
In the center of the city, a pit with a radius of nearly a kilometer appeared, full of glass that looked like lava had just solidified, and the outline of the buildings in the lower city could be faintly seen.
Is that... The City of Auroville was once the underground command center, where Emily's father, Willich, had worked for many years.
Until... During the uprising, he was betrayed by his colleagues and escorted to the center of the city, where he was surrounded by the Garda... Burned alive.
"Dad... Mom... How are you doing in Heaven? Uncle David... Come back soon..."
Emily's blank eyes finally shed two lines of tears, holding the dusty "Apocalypse" with difficulty, she stood up with difficulty, walked into the house that had become ruins, found a submachine gun, and staggered towards the bottom of the mountain.
She shook and fell headlong, but instead of falling to the ground, she fell in the crook of a pair of strong, strong arms.
The tense muscles, the burning touch, and even the pungent smell of gunsmoke and blood all gave her a strong sense of security at the moment.
At that moment, she even thought it was her dad back...
However, when he saw the man's unfamiliar face, he showed a puzzled look, "Uncle, you are..."
The man was dressed as a bartender in a white shirt and black waistcoat, and he carried the light-as-nothing girl on his back and walked backwards towards the mountain, his pace was not fast, but it was steady and firm, and through the clothes, Emily could also feel the strong pulse of his heart in his chest.
Hearing her question, the man replied apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm late, don't be afraid, I'm the owner of the boiled bullet casing, named Rogett, Your Excellency David once instructed me, if something happens in the city of Dawn, I will take you to take refuge with me, don't worry, everything will be over." ”
Rogett... She had heard the name from David, who was said to have given it to Uncle David.
Hearing this, Emily finally felt relieved and safe, and her body, which had been tense, finally relaxed and lay down on the man's back.
"Uncle David, will they come back?"
"Yes."
"Hmm."
......
Spaceport Command Hall.
"The particle railgun hits the target accurately."
"The City of Dawn fell silent."
Hearing this, Director Carmen finally breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he was about to continue to order the bombing of the city to vent his anger, suddenly one of the observers reported with some trembling eyes:
"Plus... There is an abnormality in the star Garda! ”
"What's going on?" Everyone's expressions were touched by this strange message.
"The sea level of the whole of Garda is falling rapidly, and at the current rate, I am afraid that it will only take forty-seven minutes and six seconds, and the whole sea... It's going to disappear completely..."
The observers themselves seemed to report in disbelief.
This report seems so absurd and incredible, but the data presented on it tells everyone very clearly that it is true...
Result... What happened?
There was an eerie silence in the entire spaceport command hall.
For some reason, everyone has an extremely bad intuition in their hearts...
Like the shadow of destruction, it is slowly emerging...
