Zhongjing.
In just a few days, the traces of the fierce fighting were completely erased. However, Zhongjing, which was supposed to be lively again, fell into silence again.
The streets were deserted, motor vehicles and pontoons were scattered on the roadside, and there were few airships in the sky.
Most of the shops and buildings have closed their holographic images, and even the busiest street has become quiet. The clubs and clubs that used to be crowded with people are now deserted.
The panic first started at the west gate of the sky. Someone saw the tragic scene outside through the lookout on the closed giant door. Countless workers from the western mines were crowded at the entrance, and the living lives turned into corpses in the yellow sand.
What's even more terrifying is when the green wave sweeps over.
Violent vines threw people and corpses high into the sky, and flowers with fangs crawled like wild beasts, devouring everything in their path.
When the view outside the lookout was completely filled with green, even greater fear spread throughout Zhongjing along with rumors.
Xi'an gave up on Zhongjing.
In the past, people who frequently marched and protested had no courage to even step out of their homes. They preferred to stay with their families and quietly wait for their fate to be pronounced.
New Order Joint Conference Headquarters.
The only half of the upper part of the building that was left has been rebuilt with a metal structure, and the half that fell into North Cuiping Park has also been cleared.
At this moment, there was dead silence in the building.
Ordinary employees did not come to work, and those with the right to speak were all gathered in one place.
bunker.
The small canopy control center was crowded with people, and even many people of high status were squeezed outside. They could only stand on their feet and stretch their necks to look inside.
The hemispherical holographic image not only displays the urban reality of Zhongjing, but also includes six other cities.
The swaying light and shadow reflected on every pale face, and everyone was shocked by the image in front of them.
Bloody riots are taking place everywhere in Mexico City and Rocky Mountain City. Armed drones and armed robots can no longer contain the gang members who are pouring onto the streets, because those people have already become red-eyed and have no fear of death.
It was only then that the senior leaders of the joint meeting knew for the first time how powerful weapons the small arms production workshops in Mexico could produce.
The situation in New Ao City, Denali City, and Bay City was slightly better. There were no riots, but organized gatherings. Under the leadership of gangs, more and more people took up arms and prepared to defend their homes.
The only peaceful place is the Fuji, which cruises the sea all year round. The mountain-like ship is anchored in a calm sea area. The deck is in order and the container buildings are crowded with people.
Someone asked in a low voice: "How did other cities get the news of the goblin invasion?"
No one answered.
At this time, a certain image zoomed in, showing the scene outside the sky of Mexico City and the Rocky Mountains.
Everyone knows the answer to the question.
Heavy mining trucks blocked the canopy entrances of the two cities, and new vehicles kept approaching.
It turned out that the people fleeing from the western mines did not all rush to Zhongjing, but scattered in all directions.
Suddenly, someone shouted: "Look."
In the image outside Mexico City, a green streak appeared in the sky and expanded as fast as the naked eye.
There was a sound of inhalation in the control center.
The people blocking the entrance to the canopy seemed unaware. People kept jumping off the mining trucks, approaching the entrance despite the strong wind, and beating the giant metal door in vain.
The green wave is getting closer.
finally.
Someone discovered that death was close at hand and hurriedly activated the heavy mining truck.
The next second.
The green torrent drowned out the lights of the mining truck, hit the Mexico City skyline, and rolled up bloody waves.
Terrifying plants that had never been heard of took root and began to grow wildly.
Watching this scene, the control center was silent.
for a long time.
President Li Ru's voice sounded: "You have also seen the difficulties faced by various cities. It is not easy for China and Beijing to maintain the current peace. I hope that in the next time, we can work together with you to rebuild the global order."
Everyone started to walk out, but very few responded.
Soon, there were only four representatives left in the control center, representatives of the Federation of Trade Unions, the Alliance of Human Destiny, more than a dozen ministers from various functional departments, as well as House, Mizuno and the two people they brought.
Li Ru closed the notebook, walked up to House and said, "You did a good job."
House was wearing a black trench coat, his scalp was covered with burn scars, half of his face was distorted, and the other half was extremely cold: "It's just Zhongjing, what are you going to do about Mexico City and Rocky Mountain City?"
Li Ru smiled, did not answer his question, and turned to look at Mizuno: "Miss Sonoya, these two are the candidates you recommend?"
"Yes, this is Song, the white paper fan of Qinghetu. He is currently responsible for coordinating gang affairs in Zhongjing," Mizuno stretched out his hand to guide him.
"President," Song, still wearing a plaid shirt, kept his eyes on Li Ru's face as he bowed to greet him.
"This is the representative of the psychic, Mr. Tomb."
The surprise on Li Ru's face flashed away, and he nodded and said, "Hello."
"Um."
The tomb is of an old man with a haggard expression, his cheekbones are prominent, his eyes are slightly narrowed, he is wearing a tattered robe, and his whole body exudes the smell of rotten earth.
Mizuno smiled gently and added: "Mr. Tomb summoned the surviving psychics in the hope of settling the differences with the joint meeting."
"Of course, the dominant people have paid their due price. The joint meeting hopes that every psychic can return to the right path." Li Ru opened the notebook and held it in his hand, wrote a few lines quickly on it, and then walked to In front of the table in the center of the control center, he waved his hand to wake up the holographic image, "Everyone, please come here."
The people present gathered around and stood behind her.
"Now, I have to tell you some news," she clicked on the image and switched to a live shot.
In the picture, a giant Optimus Pillar reaches into the sky and is connected to a wheel-shaped geostationary satellite in distant space.
Everyone knew that it was the Shangcheng District of Zhongjing, and the camera was shot from the sky above Zhongjing.
The next moment, a shocking scene appeared.
The giant pillars connecting China Unicom's upper and lower urban areas began to retract section by section, looking like...
"Xi'an has decided to implement the appeasement policy," Li Ru said calmly. "In 72 hours at the latest, Beijing, Mexico City, and Rocky Mountain City will be opened to goblins. This means that the war has been strangled in the cradle, and the lower city is about to enter a new era. era..."
"Surrender without a fight?" House laughed hoarsely.
"No," Li Ru lowered his head and straightened the buttons of his suit, "Xi'an assessed the goblin's military strength. The result calculated by the data model is that an all-out war will turn mankind into slaves. Only appeasement policy can free all mankind. Dilemma allows human civilization to continue.”
"Ridiculous," Tomb uttered two words expressionlessly. The moment he turned around, it turned into a misty black smoke and gradually dissipated.
"My lord," Song said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I have something else to do, so I have to leave first. Oh, by the way, Sonoya, I'll treat you to dinner at the Three Musketeers tonight."
Mizuno nodded.
Finally, House stared into Li Ru's eyes and said slowly: "You are wrong, Li Ru, the war will not end, but has just begun..."
