"What's wrong?" In the room of a family of three, the wife was drowsy.

"Hurry, wife, get up! It's an air raid siren!" Her husband hurriedly slapped her awake and shouted while getting dressed: "Son, get up quickly! We have to evacuate!"

"The Zerg are coming?" The wife suddenly woke up and quickly dressed and tidied up.

At this time, the neighborhood committee's loudspeaker sounded: "Attention all owners and residents, please go to the shelter immediately. Please be prepared for emergencies. To prevent a fire, the community will conduct power outages and property inspections in ten hours!"

They had rehearsed this scenario many times over the past month or so.

Volunteers began knocking on doors door-to-door to remind and help people evacuate.

Throughout the Magic City, all the city's street lights were on at this time, and the streets were bustling with people. They were carrying their bags and heading to the shelter to escape.

At this time, in the East China Sea, fighter groups and battleship groups were intercepting and bombing the insect swarm.

"The insect swarm suddenly gathered, about five days earlier than we predicted! It is expected to reach the coast of the Demon City within a day!" Xue Yang sent a warning in the Xuanwu command hall.

The Xuanwu Command Hall is a command hall that exists in the virtual world and is connected through the global satellite network. Xuanwu Executive Officer and other necessary executors can join this command hall for operational discussions.

"The detector results show that the number of insect swarms this time is greater than the last two attacks on Chozi District and Busan combined!" Liu Tianhuhui reported.

"We have also detected some existences with high thermal radiation, and there may be more advanced Zerg species!" This was Ye Yun's judgment.

"The fleet is on standby, and mine arrays are being deployed offshore!" Luo Anhui, one of the marine commanders of the Xuanwu Force, reported.

"Is the entrance to the sea blocked?" Qin Peng asked.

"It's blocked! We set down twenty nets to intercept the entire Yangtze River entrance. Four hundred self-propelled artillery were placed along the coast, and torpedo arrays and underwater missile launchers were deployed underwater. An aircraft carrier fleet Stay around!" Luo An said.

"Nuclear weapons are also ready!" He Hongwei's image appeared in the command hall. He was now in a secret base.

"Nuclear weapons are to prevent deep-sea monsters! They cannot be used unless necessary!" Qin Peng said.

No one wants to use this strategic weapon at their doorstep, which will have a drastic impact on urban agglomerations and the ecological environment.

"We are organizing the evacuation of the masses and it can be completed within ten hours!" Lu Mei said.

"The reserve teams heading to the front line are being dispatched, and they will all be in place within five hours!" Lei Yuanfenghui, one of the land commanders of the Xuanwu Force, reported.

"Dr. He, where are you?" Qin Peng asked He Xingzhou.

He Xingzhou said: "One hundred single-stage electromagnetic reconnection cannons have been installed on the Great Steel Wall, and a multi-stage electromagnetic reconnection cannon is undergoing the final manufacturing part. It can be completed within 20 hours, and we will send it to the front line immediately. Assemble!”

"Okay!" Qin Peng said, "To deal with those big beetles, we can only rely on electromagnetic guns!"

They don't want to abandon their coastal defenses like Sakura Island and Koryo Island and use missiles to blow this place into scorched earth!

"Everyone listens to the order. Now we have entered a state of war. The battle to defend the Magic City has begun!" Qin Peng shouted.

"Received! Defend the Magic City to the death!" Unswerving reports came from the communication channel.



Near the magic city, a branch of a certain land force.

Commander Xie Lang is doing pre-war mobilization, and the team has gathered urgently.

He shouted: "Our department has just received instructions from our superiors to dispatch some personnel to the G545 Steel Great Wall Section to assist in defense!"

"The G545 section of the Great Steel Wall is on the edge of the Magic City and has not yet been completed. If the Zerg are blocked from the front, they will most likely take a detour to break through from the G545 section."

"So on this line of defense, we will not have the protection of the Great Steel Wall, and we will have to rely on our own weapons to defend. If necessary, we will have to sacrifice our lives!"

"I have already explained the situation. Soldiers who are willing to go to Section G545, please step forward!"

As soon as Jie Lang finished speaking, he heard the sound of neat steps. All the soldiers in front of him took a step forward, and no one stopped in place.

Jie Lang looked at the young faces in front of him, feeling both relieved and heavy at the same time. These soldiers are in the most exciting years of their lives, and the G545 segment is destined to be more dangerous than other lines of defense.

This is a narrow escape from death! They all knew the risks of this trip, but no one hesitated!

Jie Lang had a straight face and glanced at the soldiers in front of him. He gave the order again and said: "Now, listen to my order. All those who are the only children in the family, take a step back!"

After he gave this order, everyone remained motionless and no one retreated.

Xie Lang scolded: "Did you hear that, only children, take a step back!"

Still no one made any move. Jie Lang walked up to a young soldier in the front row and shouted: "Liu Tong, why don't you obey the order? I remember you don't have any brothers or sisters in your family!"

"Report!" Liu Tong raised his head and shouted, "I have brothers and sisters at home!"

Jie Lang scolded: "Nonsense, your file is right here with me! Are you still faking it?"

Liu Tong continued to shout: "Report, my file is not falsified! But I have brothers and sisters, and the people of the whole country are my brothers and sisters! I will never retreat!"

"You kid!" Jie Lang was about to curse a few more words when everyone in the team shouted together: "People across the country are our brothers and sisters, and we will never retreat!"

Their voices were firm and their eyes were resolute. They held their chests high and their heads high, as if they were about to rush to a podium of honor rather than a battlefield of blood and fire.

An indescribable emotion rose in Jie Lang's chest. He knew that at least half of these soldiers were only children, and behind them were families.

But now, they have no hesitation and look forward to death!

"Okay!" Jie Lang shouted loudly, "Everyone listens to the order. In order to protect our brothers and sisters, we will immediately set off for the G545 section! When we come back, I will celebrate your victory!"

"Move out!"



Chongzhou is one of the cities in the Magic City agglomeration.

In a hospital in Chongzhou, director Zhu Yu urgently summoned a group of doctors and medical staff.

Among them, there are experienced experts and directors who have practiced medicine for many years, as well as young nurses who provide clinical care, and young people who have just graduated from university and come here for internship.

Zhu Yu said in a deep voice: "There is news from the Magic City that the Zerg will attack the Magic City within a day! There is an urgent need for medical staff on the front line, so a group of medical staff must be mobilized from nearby cities to provide support."

"Everyone knows that the front line is very dangerous, and if we are not careful, our lives may be in danger. But if we don't go, it will be our soldiers who will be injured and sacrificed!"

"So we have to go!"

"Here, I won't force anyone to go. If you are willing to go, just sign this petition. If you are killed on the front line, the hospital and the country will handle your funeral and take care of your family."

"Time is urgent, let's get started!"

It is said to be a petition, but it is actually a life and death certificate.

After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he was the first to sign his name on the "Declaration of Life and Death".

The director of surgery did not hesitate and was the second to sign his name. Then came some doctors and nurses. Even though some had hesitated, they still signed their names.

Only the last two young nurses were left. The director stopped them and said, "Hu Juan and Bai Xue, you two don't need to go. You have just graduated, so you should stay in the hospital."

The two of them actually graduated from medical universities ahead of schedule. Because of the emergency and the urgent shortage of medical staff, a large number of students graduated from medical universities.

"No, I have to go!" Hu Juan took the certificate of life and death and said, "Everyone can go, why can't I? Isn't there the Great Steel Wall? We must be safe in the Great Wall!"

"Hu Juan can go, and so can I!" Bai Xue said, "I can do such a meaningful thing for the first time. Others who want to go have not had the chance!"

They said it easily, but the deans and directors could see that they were not able to hide their emotions, and the fear and uneasiness in their hearts were written on their faces.

After the two signed the life and death certificate, Hu Juan saw everyone's faces were heavy, so she smiled and said: "The expedition is about to go out, everyone should be happy, why don't we take a photo!"

"What a great idea! I'm going to post it on Moments too!" Bai Xue said with a smile. She also picked up a marker and said, "I'll write you a sentence to make it look more solemn!"

After saying that, she first wrote four big characters on Hu Juan's clothes: "Defend the Magic City"!

Seeing them trying to look optimistic, Dean Zhu Yu smiled and said, "Write one for me too!"

"Come on, let me write one too!"

"What are you writing about? How can I be missing?" came an old voice, and an old man in his eighties was slowly walking over.

Zhu Yu looked at it and said in surprise: "Mr. Xia, why are you here? You have retired, so enjoy your time at home!"

His name is Xia Wenbin, one of the former surgical masters, who has retired because of his age.

Xia Wenbin scolded: "Xiao Zhu, you didn't notify me of such an important matter! Although I'm retired, my brain is not confused, and my hands can still hold a scalpel! You go to the front line to support me without me in charge. , will it work?”

"What kind of petition is that? Get me a copy!" Xia Wenbin shouted.

"Dean, this..." The director hesitated.

Seeing this, Xia Wenbin stepped forward and took a copy. While signing his name, he scolded: "Mother-in-law! Let's go quickly!"



In the middle, a large logistics center.

"A war is about to begin in the Magic City, urgently mobilize supplies!" Warehouse manager Wang Chang shouted, "The convoy must set off now to deliver supplies to the front line!"

"Who wants to run? This delivery fee is ten times higher!" he shouted to a group of delivery drivers.

"I'll do it!" A driver stood up and said, "I signed up as a volunteer a long time ago and there is no delivery fee!"

With that said, he got in the car directly and went to the warehouse to load the car.

"Husband, we are also volunteers!" Husband and wife team Chen Ping and Wu Li were discussing.

"I'm going, so don't go!" Chen Ping stood up and said, "Distributing goods on the front line is also dangerous. We still have elderly and children to take care of! We have to leave one person behind no matter what!"

"I..." Wu Li still wanted to speak, but Chen Ping had already made a decision and said: "Listen to me, I'll go! You stay!"

Wu Li moved her lips a few times and finally said, "Okay then, be careful on the road!"

"Don't worry, I drive a heavy truck. If I encounter any mutant creature, I will kill it!" Chen Ping said, patting his chest.

With that said, he went to the warehouse manager to sign up, and soon went to the warehouse to load the truck.

After watching Chen Ping's heavy truck drive out of the logistics center, Wu Li walked up to the warehouse manager and said, "Wang Tou, I want to go too!"

Wang Chang asked doubtfully: "Didn't your husband just set off? He told you to stay and not make this trip!"

"I know." Wu Li said, "But I am also a volunteer and a delivery driver. There is a shortage of people now. What if I don't go?"

"You have an old man in your family and a young man in your family. You should keep him while I find someone else!" Wang Chang advised.

"I have decided!" Wu Li said, "The child has been sent to his uncle's house, and they will also take care of the elderly."

"Besides, we are delivering goods from behind, not fighting against the Zerg."

"That's it, I drove. By the way, don't tell my husband!" she emphasized.

Wang Chang hesitated for a few seconds, nodded and said: "Okay, remember, be careful along the way!"



On the city streets of Shanghai, two streams of traffic and people appeared.

One group is the evacuated people, who are evacuating to shelters in safe areas with their daily necessities.

The other group is the soldiers, medical staff, logistics personnel, etc. who have entered the magic city.

"Mom, why are they walking in the opposite direction?" a little boy in the evacuating team asked curiously.

Mother glanced at the people who were marching backwards. They all knew that there was a battlefield ahead and the man-eating Zerg were about to attack, but they rushed to the front line without hesitation.

She stroked her son's head and said, "Because they are rebels, heroes who defend us and this country! They are the vanguards who go to the battlefield!"

"Without them, we would be eaten by monsters!"

The little boy seemed to understand, and said, "Is that hero very powerful?"

"superb!"

"Then I want to be a hero too!"

"Uh-huh."

At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "A nation cannot be without heroes, and a country cannot be without pioneers!"

"Salute to you, rebels!"

This sentence ignited the evacuated crowd, who shouted: "Salute to you, rebels!"

"I wish you a safe journey!"

"You must come back safely!"

"We are waiting for your reunion!"

Wave after wave of sounds echoed over the city, and people walking backwards turned their heads with tears in their eyes.

Wiping away their tears, they moved on.

Ahead, you will see the majestic Great Steel Wall!

Outside the Great Steel Wall, countless mutant creatures can already be seen. They lurk in the ocean, hide in the sand, and watch eagerly on the coastline and at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

Their terrifying appearance alone is enough to scare people.

They seem to be waiting for an instruction, and then break through the defense line of life! Extend your claws to the vast land of China and the 1.4 billion Chinese people!

The rebels swear in their hearts:

"Defend the Magic City, we are here!"
