Chapter 147: Launch
Zhang Ran's speed was extremely fast, and he swept out several kilometers away in a short period of time, almost catching up with a high-speed train.
However, this way of walking is also a great burden on him.
It was only for less than a minute that he felt a sore calf and could no longer support it.
Reluctantly, he landed on the ground and smashed a deep crater into the ground.
The number of monsters in this vicinity was already much smaller than that over there, and Zhang Ran could only see a few wolf-shaped monsters wandering in the distance.
Not far away there was a town, just a little dilapidated, apparently uninhabited.
Zhang Ran decided to go there to rest for a while, waiting for the end of the battle.
In the direction of Lin'an City, the roar of artillery fire became more and more intense, and it was obvious that the battle had reached a white-hot stage, and it was really not wise to return at this time.
After lifting the transformation, Zhang Ran walked into the town, ready to find a suitable place to check his cultivation results.
After all, after being promoted to Zhuji, he didn't have time at all to familiarize himself with the strength.
The town was dilapidated and desolate.
Zhang Ran walked down the street, and after a few months, the side of the road was overgrown with weeds, covering up the once prosperous, and now it is like a wasteland picture in a movie.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed that in an alley beside the road, there were two small figures.
Human?
After advancing to the foundation building, his divine consciousness can really be called divine consciousness now, and as soon as his mind moves, within a radius of 100 meters, everything is in full view, and it is clearer and more detailed than his eyes.
Zhang Ran's divine sense caught that in that alley, two boys were hiding somewhere, whispering, and peeping in this direction.
In this abandoned town, there are still human beings?
Zhang Ran's curiosity was aroused, to say that it had been so long, that human beings had basically either spontaneously or been relocated, all concentrated around a few megacities.
At this time, humans in the wild can't escape the killing of monsters at all.
Monsters have a more sensitive sense of smell and a stronger body, and humans can only use it as food.
So how did they survive?
Zhang Ran remained silent, pretending not to know, and still walked aimlessly, while his divine sense groped his way to see what they were going to do.
The two boys looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, their clothes were dirty and tattered, their skin and bones, and they were probably malnourished.
I only heard a boy say: "Adong, leave him alone, where are there survivors now, there are monsters outside, how did he get here?" ”
The boy named Ah Dong retorted timidly: "Maybe he was just lucky and wanted to rush to Lin'an, you see that the clothes on his body are also tattered, and he should also be a survivor." ”
"But his origin is unknown, what if it is a monster turned into a monster?" Another boy frightened.
"But if he, if he is really a human, is going to the big spider, isn't that sending him to death?" Ah Dong snorted.
"Leave him alone." Another boy said viciously: "We are out to fetch water, don't forget our mission." ”
Big spiders?
Zhang Ran was stunned, and then his divine sense swept like a radar, and sure enough, in front of him, in the corner, there were countless cobwebs, densely packed.
Farther away, in the underground parking lot, a large spider with eight legs and belly in its deep sleep.
However, the strength of this big spider is a little too weak, only D-level, at best it is a little bigger, but for ordinary people, it is already a behemoth.
Hey? Why are people gone?
At this time, Ah Dong peeked in that direction again, but found that the figure on the street just now was missing at this time.
He was stunned suddenly, pulled the boy next to him, and said, "Xiaojing, look, why is that person missing?" ”
"What's missing?"
Xiao Jing also came over, and the streets were empty, and there was no one in sight.
The cold wind blew, and he couldn't help but shiver.
This is too weird, there is no place to turn in the street over there, how can such a big person disappear in a good manner?
"Excuse me? That person is actually a ghost? Ah Dong said tremblingly, his teeth colliding up and down.
"No, how can it be a ghost? How can there be ghosts in this world? Xiao Jing was barely calm, comforting Adong and comforting himself, "Let's go back first." ”
"Okay."
The two turned around at the same time, only to find a person standing behind them, dressed in tattered clothes, who was the same person on the street just now.
Zhang Ran grinned toothily and was about to speak.
"Hell!" Ah Dong and Xiao Jing were so startled that they almost sat on the ground, and the two hugged each other and looked at the person in front of them in horror.
"It must be a ghost, it must be, how can a human move so fast." Ah Dong shouted in his heart, wanting to turn his head and run away, but his feet were weak and he couldn't move.
Even Xiao Jing, who was more bold, was pale, and his forehead was full of cold sweat.
Zhang Ran was speechless, these two people really regarded themselves as ghosts.
"Hey, I'm not a ghost, I'm a living human." He waved his hand in the sun, "See, I have a shadow." ”
It was noon, and the shadows on the ground were clearly visible.
"It looks like it's really human."
The two boys looked at each other, slightly relaxed.
"Whew, I'm scared to death." Ah Dong patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, he was really startled just now.
"Why are you running around this town?" He asked curiously, "I saw that you were still there just now, how did you get behind us all of a sudden?" ”
"Don't you say?" His face changed, "You're the inheritor?" ”
There are really enough questions, Zhang Ran didn't care, nodded, and said, "That's right." ”
The moment he nodded in agreement, he keenly grasped that the expressions of the two boys changed suddenly.
Ah Dong's expression was mainly fearful.
Xiaojing, on the other hand, is afraid mixed with hatred...... and craving.
"It's still two people with stories." He thought to himself.
At this time.
Rumble!
The ground under Zhang Ran's feet seemed to shake.
Immediately, in the distance, at least fifty kilometers away.
Near the place where the S-class monster roared just now, a huge mushroom cloud rose up.
"What happened?" Zhang Ran was startled, crossed into the air, and looked in that direction.
The distance was too far away, too many things could not be seen clearly, but I could see that the mushroom cloud was soaring into the sky.
"This is, a nuclear bomb?"
Although it is a doubt, Zhang Ran has basically determined that this is clearly a nuclear bomb.
Such power, and such iconic images, he has seen countless times in textbooks, news magazines, newspapers.
"Did you do it? It's just that? Dead or not dead? "He would love to know the results.
.........
It's not just him, everyone wants to know the result.
Especially the general command of the Chinese military.
in the conference room.
Around the round conference table, there were more than a dozen middle-aged people in their fifties and sixties.
They are the real decision-makers of this country.
"Wang Chen, what's the result?" A slightly fat, middle-aged man sitting at the top asked.
"Chairman, the smoke and dust on the scene are too big, and for a while, I can't know the result." Wang Chen looked at the laptop computer in his hand, and there was no news from the front line for the time being.
"Don't worry, Chairman." The gray-haired old general said: "We have adopted the most advanced hypersonic missile today, which cannot be dodged at all, and the yield of the nuclear bomb has been specially adjusted by two levels, which is foolproof." ”
"Elder Feng is right." Others are also in line with the Tao.
They were comforting each other, because they knew that they had made the decision, and if something went wrong, they would all be nailed to the pillar of shame.
It's okay to succeed in killing, if you don't kill the S-class monsters, the damage is not great, then the dozen or so S-class monsters in the world will become more and more unscrupulous, because humans have lost their biggest weapons.
The current situation is that the two sides are in a delicate balance.
S-class monsters are afraid of this kind of large-scale killing weapon in the hands of humans, so they dare not attack arbitrarily.
Once nuclear deterrence is broken, the balance will be upset and more difficult times will come.
It's just that the military has now finally taken advantage of its anger to lock its position in the mountains.
If you don't make a move, this S-class monster will probably think that humans are too easy to bully, and constantly drive the monster to attack.
Then, humanity will always be confined to that small city, and one day it will be eaten away.
"Anyway, at this time, just wait quietly for the result." Wang Chen told himself.
Tick tock.
In the conference room, the clock was walking minute by minute.
"There's news."
Wang Chen's spirits perked up.
It's a photograph, cloudy, but faintly visible, a huge creature moving at high speed.
The picture kept coming back, and it was a huge wolf-like creature, and its head alone was worth ten stories tall.
The hair is silvery-grey, but it is messy and bloodstained.
The lower half of its body is completely gone, that is, only half of its body remains.
Didn't die, but went to half a life.
It is fleeing in a hurry, and in just ten minutes, it has already moved hundreds of kilometers.
"Lock, do it again!" The chairman's eyes were resolute and ruthless.
