The crowd gathered in front of this cordon has been standing for more than ten minutes. Most of these people are not the kind of people who are afraid of the army, because they have the strength to control most of the army.
But now, precisely because they have such strength, they understand more how terrifying the army in front of them is. So much so that no one dared to take the first step and try to cross this line of defense that exuded terrifying coercion.
The nearly 100 meters of distance between the crowd and the army was like an insurmountable chasm.
In this empty moat without any obstacles, an old man and a girl were walking on it, as eye-catching as the center of the world.
The old man's health was probably not very good, so he could walk slowly and tremblingly with the support of the girl. It took several minutes to complete the empty stretch of less than 100 meters.
At the end of the chasm, the old man said to a soldier who looked like a stone sculpture, "Comrade, our home is over there, can you..."
Before the old man finished speaking, the soldier gestured to back away from the armored vehicle that occupied half of the road. The road that originally required walking a few meters to go around suddenly appeared in front of the old man and the girl.
The old man was stunned, and a happy smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "Okay, the armored car will give way to our grandfather and grandson. This is a treatment that only people in our country can enjoy. This is the true teacher of the benevolent, the king." Master..."
The old man drifted away with the support of the girl. Countless compliments made only a small smile appear on the warrior's face, and then he returned to his steely stance.
The passing of the old man made people further away who also wanted to go home, or who really had something to go over, began to move forward with confidence. Originally, this was my own country. How could my own country's army block me for no reason? It was all because of the nervousness caused by the group of foreigners crowding in front.
Seeing that ordinary citizens were all passing through the cordon freely, some people who were targeting the central square also tried to pass by.
Although this terrifying force never stopped anyone from beginning to end, nearly half of them terminated their plans for various reasons and quickly turned back and left. The situation is almost the same on several other roads leading to the central square.
Even so, in less than an hour, the huge central square was already several times more lively than usual. People with different skin colors and different languages, but with the same fierce aura gathered here, but strangely, no incident occurred. Everyone seemed to have understood that there must be some relationship between the army that made them tremble and the mission issuer who was about to appear, and the awe-inspiring attack just now was enough.
When the square was almost full, the big screen in the square suddenly lit up, and a figure whose outline could only be seen vaguely appeared on the screen.
"Welcome everyone to come from thousands of miles away. When you stand in this square, I promise that all your money will be transferred to your account."
The words of the person on the screen made everyone in the square excited. Many people directly took out their mobile phones to inquire about their accounts.
"Boss, what's going on?"
"What?" The man who was also holding his cell phone and checking his account was stunned for a moment. The account clearly showed a huge sum of money that had just arrived.
"I mean, how come all the colleagues around me are so high-quality, and they can actually understand German."
"What are you talking about?" another team member yelled, "Didn't the person who issued the mission speak Russian?"
This sentence made other team members from different countries look at the two of them with strange eyes. Realizing something was wrong, the two men looked at the strange-looking head uneasily.
"Either you two are crazy, or we are all crazy." Tou slowly said in a more uneasy tone than them, "What I heard was Spanish...the language of the country where I was born..."
They weren't the only ones to notice this anomaly. Everyone in the square was enveloped in great fear and uneasiness. If it weren't for the fact that they were not ordinary people, there would have been riots in the square.
"I think you should have discovered that there is something special about me. Before I explain in detail, everyone who has received the money can choose to leave freely, or you can choose to stay. But if you stay, it means that you are willing to accept my offer. mission, and at the same time, you will receive 10 times the current reward.”
Some people who were about to leave because of the first half of the sentence quickly stopped because of the second half. The remuneration they received now was no less than the total they earned before. If it were ten times more, it would be an amount that would drive them crazy.
As if he already knew the result, the mission issuer's voice continued without a pause, "It seems that no one has left, so everyone has accepted my mission. Although you must agree before making the mission statement. There is something not very good, so please forgive me for my little willfulness. Now please come in."
With these words, the building next to the square that had been used as a decoration by countless visitors suddenly split to both sides, and a huge entrance that was more than ten meters tall appeared. Inside this entrance is a long, brightly lit tunnel with no end in sight.
As the tunnel appeared, the figure on the screen began to explain.
"The fear of the end of the world is not unique to today's people. Since a long time ago, there have been many people in Chinese history who were worried about the world. In order to have a place to stay when the sky fell, they have built many buildings. Even now It seems to be quite an exaggerated shelter. The most grand among them is the one you are about to enter."
Many people, driven by irrepressible curiosity, entered the tunnel first.
"It is impossible to verify who first started building this place, but what is certain is that it was definitely a grand project involving the entire country. Of course, such a huge undertaking was not just to avoid the illusory sky collapse, but out of practicality Considering that this shelter is also a huge cave for hiding soldiers. Many rebellions that were miraculously suppressed in history, as well as God's Blessing that was not eliminated even though the royal family's defense was empty, are probably related to this place..."
People entering the tunnel soon discovered that the seemingly ordinary cement floors and walls were actually made of a solid layer of metal. If you look carefully, you can also see small gaps in certain locations.
"With the passage of time, the people who first built this refuge did not make their dynasty permanent. But the change of dynasties not only did not make this refuge decline, but it was constantly expanded..."
The tunnel that was too long made some people lose their patience and start running at a speed that was far beyond normal. The fastest people can already see the bright light at the end of the tunnel. But judging from the diameter ratio of the tunnel, the light was at least several kilometers away from its current location.
