Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Live War and the People in the Apocalypse
"ββββ! of the Groan"
In the night, unlike the lolis who gathered around Klee, she stood by the fence in a daze, letting the breeze blow her short hair, listening to the chirping of the most powerful creature in the world.
The chirping of the wind made her frown, and she vaguely seemed to understand the meaning of Scorpio's chirping.
Today picked out the key words in it and read: "Home, Mom, Car."
Suddenly she felt tears slipping down her skin, and she wiped away the tears and wondered, "Why am I crying?" β
Buzz~Buzz~
The howling of the helicopter propellers churning the air caused the wind to blow around, and today's short hair was blown into the air.
Didi~!
Looking down today, a camouflage-painted off-road vehicle flashes its lights and drives downstairs at great speed.
"Klee!" The tall girl who got out of the car was dressed in a kimono, and at this time there was no peace and tranquility that belonged to the kimono on her body, but excitement and eagerness.
"Sister Miori!" Klee poked her little head out of the fence and reached out to greet Sima Weiori below.
Sima Weizhi said simply: "The people from the Saint Heaven's Mansion have come to them, and they say that the Saint Son of Heaven hopes that we can take action to stop Scorpio from continuing to wreak havoc on the land of Tokyo. β
The Lori who surrounded Klee looked at each other, but no one erupted in cheers, because they didn't know if Klee would be able to defeat one of the most powerful monsters in the world.
"Klee," Akiko tugged at Klee's cuffs and whispered, "Otherwise, let's not go, look at that monster, it's so scary." β
"yes, Klee," the kids began, "it's a big deal that we'll change places, there's no need to take the risk." β
"It's time to give the bad guys in the city a blow!"
"Uh-huh! Let them drive us away at all times. β
Penny frowned, and just as she was about to say something, Klee said, "But there are good people like Aunt Jingyuan in the city, and there are many, many of our companions." β
The children who had just been talking about dissuading Klee from shutting up shut up, and they just stared at Klee with worried eyes.
"Let's go, let's go down first!" Klee took the lead, running from the second floor of the light steel room to Sima Weizhi's side, and after a while, a group of Loli hula came around.
Penny asked, "Miss Miori, did the Shengtianzi's Mansion agree to our request?" β
Sima Weizhi nodded: "The TV station tracked and filmed, broadcast the whole process, and after the victory over Scorpio, it continuously pushed videos about Klee and others defeating Scorpio, as well as promoting the "New Law on Primitives" after the war, protecting the rights and interests of the cursed children, and a large number of provisions to support the construction of the 'new home'."
"All of this promised?" Penny was suspicious.
"That's right," Sima Weiweaving said, "That Lord Saint Tianzi originally wanted to promote the implementation of the new law, and she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, so it was normal to sympathize with the cursed child.
And as a ruler, she wants to ensure the stability of Tokyo, and as time goes on, the cursed children get older, and the violence caused by social injustice and discrimination will increase exponentially. β
"Doesn't sound like a loophole." Penny turned to look at the excited Klee and the little expressionless Gaemon who wanted to say something encouraging, but when the words came to her lips, Penny said:
"Klee, Gayemon, I'm afraid we can't help much, we go to the battlefield, we will only do you a favor."
"It's okay Penny," Klee said with a smile, "just let Klee and Gaymon work together to defeat the big monster and settle down in their new home!" β
Penny pursed her lips and said, "If we can't beat it, we must run, you guys will run back, and we will all hide far away." β
"Hmph~" Klee was quite confident, she crossed her hands on her hips and said, "There are only monsters that were blown away by Klee, and there are no monsters that let Klee escape." β
Penny looked helplessly at Gayemon, who only nodded silently, indicating that she would run away with Klee in an emergency.
"ββββ! of the Groan"
Another terrifying howl was heard, and the wind stirred up by the roar was more violent than the wind blowing by the helicopter propellers.
Klee's unyielding hair poking out from under her beret swayed back and forth in the wind, and she said, "Then Klee and Gayemon are going to blow up the big monster, everyone~ Wait for Klee's good news!" β
"Klee, come on!"
"Be careful!"
"Remember to retreat when you encounter difficulties!"
"Woo~ I also want to fight monsters with Klee." Lori's eyes were red, and she kept wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand.
"What are you crying about! Ah! Klee is going to fight monsters, not to be beaten by monsters! Don't cry! β
"Blame me for being too weak, otherwise I would have been able to share it with Klee."
"Mmmm, from today onwards, I'm going to refuse all the fun time, I'm going to train! I'm going to get stronger! I'm going to be with Klee! β
"Me too!"
"Add me!"
"Count me in!"
Penny smiled, as a cursed child, she knew that people were not the same as human talents, and that some people, no matter how hard they tried, could not keep up with the pace of those geniuses.
Some of them may be able to enter the top 3,000 or even triple digits of the international IP rankings through the efforts of the day after tomorrow! But it's almost impossible to reach Klee's height.
But it's good that everyone has positive thoughts, and I believe Klee would prefer to see such partners.
Buzz~Buzz~
After Klee and the others boarded the helicopter, the speed of the propeller rose rapidly, and the black helicopter, which Klee called the "Big Iron Bird", flew towards the location of Scorpio at great speed under the cover of night.
In the loli group, I'm staring blankly at the departing helicopter, she turned to look at Penny, Akiko and the others, not knowing whether to say what she "heard".
Self-Defense Forces Civilian Garrison Temporary Command Room.
Tiantong and Hikari suppressed his anger, he saw with his own eyes that the Holy Son of Heaven agreed to the conditions of the witch camp represented by Sima Heavy Industry, those extremely harsh conditions seemed to him to be no different from the Shame Treaty! And the Holy Son of Heaven agreed without hesitation!
If the witch really defeats Scorpio, will the future Tokyo be the Tokyo of the Tokyoites or the Tokyo of the cursed children?!
They will become the new elite class in Tokyo based on the authority established by witches! Stand on top of the people of Tokyo!
This is unacceptable to people like Tendo and Hikari who hate the cursed child, and he can't imagine how chaotic Tokyo society will be.
Tiantong and Guang forcibly suppressed the anger in their hearts, came to the Holy Son of Heaven again, and persuaded: "Lord Holy Heavenly Son, since the matter has been arranged, for your safety, please leave here immediately." β
"Will the people of Tokyo be able to leave?" The Son of Heaven said softly.
Tiantong and Guang were slightly flustered, and then got up silently and stood behind the Holy Son of Heaven.
Behind this girl, who was as holy as the moonlight, there was an emotion called 'resentment' hidden in the deep eyes of Tiantong and Hikatsu.
He was fed up with this stubborn and brainless child.
ββββββ
The flashing helicopter hovered three kilometers away from Scorpio, and the pilot shouted, "Two, this is the limit of what we can get close, and the rest of the distance is up to you." β
"It's okay, find a suitable place to land." Gaye dreamed.
"Yes!"
Klee looked out through the glass window of the hatch, the size of the monster made Klee's eyes widen, she had never seen such a big monster in Teyvat.
"Wow~" Klee wondered, "Gaye Dream, are all stage five gastrulations that big?" β
Gaymon shook his head, "The protogulls of Stage 5 are large and small, and Scorpios are medium-sized. β
"Ahh Klee blinked, unable to imagine how powerful her fellow Kill Stage 5 was on their own.
"But up close, it's really unbelievably big, and it's hard to imagine that such a monster could be born on Earth." Gaymon sighed, and the snake pupils scanned back and forth over Scorpio's huge, mountain-like body, trying to find its weakness.
Below the constellation Scorpio, there is a crumble that has long been crushed into powder, and the three-kilometer radius of the site, disturbed by strong earthquakes and various explosions, has long since turned into a human purgatory, and there is almost no breath of the living.
The helicopter hovered three meters high in a ruin, and the helicopter pilot reminded: "Two, Miss Sima reminded you that after you get off the helicopter, the TV station will broadcast the whole process, please be prepared." β
"Live" Klee, who has lived in this world for a while, roughly understands the meaning of this word, which is that someone takes a very quick picture of what they do with a 'gramograph' and then shows it to everyone.
Klee examined herself and whispered, "It's the first time I've seen a lot of people watch Klee blow up monsters with a bouncing bomb, but fortunately, this Qin Leader is not in this world." β
"Thanks for the reminder." Gayemon thanked the driver, then turned to look at Klee, "Klee, are you ready?" β
"Klee is ready!" Klee looked confident.
"That" Gayemon was just about to act with Klee when she heard Klee turn her head and ask the stuffed doll tied to her school bag:
"Are you ready?"
The plush doll named Dodoko shook in the wind, and Klee immediately said to Gaye, "Dodoko is ready!" β
"Well, let's get moving!" Gayemon took the lead and jumped straight out of the helicopter.
"Ahh Klee is here! Klee's small hands gripped the straps of her schoolbag and jumped out of the helicopter in the same way as Gayemon.
Almost instantly, the 'New Tokyo TV', controlled by Sima Heavy Industries, filmed two small lolies, one red and one black, through cameras and military satellites.
In areas of Tokyo that are not so badly affected, there are still some areas where water and electricity are guaranteed, some people are hiding at home in fear, some people are running to the streets to find a chance of survival, and many more are running into shelters under the command of the Tokyo government to wait for fate.
"Hit her! Beat her to death! β
"It's all their fault! If it weren't for them! Those proto-intestinal monsters will never come! Our home will not be destroyed! We don't have to die! β
"Throw her out!"
"What are the people of the Vault eating, they actually let the monster in! Do you want to kill all of us?! β
"Hit her! Fuck her off! β
In a dimly lit shelter, mad men roar loudly, pointing at children huddled in corners, constantly stimulating people's nerves with words, trying to control the minds of the masses.
In the corner, the shabby girl curled up and shivering, looked up cautiously and looked at the frenzied figures with a look of horror.
The iconic scarlet eyes of the Cursed Son made the hesitant crowd boil instantly, and a sturdy man grabbed the girl's hair, just about to swing his fist to teach this cursed son who brought disaster to everyone.
ε²~ε²la~
In most of the shelters, only emergency broadcasts existed, and those that had been suspended for more than twenty minutes suddenly heard again.
In some of the shelters with better conditions, the big screens that had previously suspended the news broadcast were lit up again, and it was the huge Roshan that everyone in Tokyo feared that appeared.
"What's the situation?" The staff in the shelter turned pale and looked at his boss, who could no longer care about his dignity and asked, "Sir, didn't you say that you are not allowed to broadcast real-time messages?" β
Previously, in order to improve people's confidence, when the Self-Defense Forces attacked Scorpio, they ordered a live broadcast of the battle situation, but they did not expect Scorpio to destroy the entire Self-Defense Forces in just a few tens of seconds.
This scene, witnessed by the people, almost caused a large-scale riot, and if it weren't for the fact that there were some cursed children in the shelter who could divert people's attention and pressure, they were afraid that they would not have good fruit to eat.
These shelter workers are on the front line of blocking the riots, he has been beaten a few times in vain just now, and now he is still in pain, if the people know about the progress of the war, he will not be beaten to death by the angry and restless people?
The boss looked serious, suppressed the fear in his heart, and comforted his subordinates: "The government has found a new way to crack it, and this is to give the people confidence!" β
After hearing his boss's explanation, the man's brain went blank, and he looked up at the live broadcast on the big screen blankly, his limbs trembling slightly uncontrollably.
If this operation against the original intestines fails, the crowd of anger and fear will surely kill and maim them!
The order of the vault will also collapse.
The voice of the host was heard on the TV and radio stereos, "This is New TV Tokyo, and we will broadcast the Zodiac 'Scorpio' battlefield live for you throughout the whole process." β
The living people were terrified, but after hearing the host's voice, the noisy crowd eerily returned to silence.
The muscly man threw the girl out, causing her to slam into the wall like a wounded beast.
At this time, no one paid attention to her for the time being.
The girl struggled to her feet, ready to escape from this cave, she was not necessarily dead outside, but in this sanctuary that sheltered humanity. Definitely will be torn apart by the emotional crowd!
