Chapter 242: Chapter 242(1/2)
Within half a year, humans who were active on the surface moved underground, and the empty and lonely cities were turned into fortresses.
The number of awakened people has tripled, but 40% of them are minors, and only 60% can fully commit to the battlefield. However, the popularity of uniforms and weapons has given the public the opportunity to enlist.
Perhaps the reality of "falling into demons" has eliminated many people with evil intentions. In the past six months, the alliance has absorbed excellent combatants one after another. Some of them have not yet awakened, but their combat effectiveness after putting on the battle uniforms is complete.
Can rival the awakened ones.
In this way, the awakened ones have been relieved of a heavy burden. Driven by the multi-line recovery, although humans are unable to close the gate, they are also capable of controlling the dangers of the gate. If the threat of demons can be eliminated, perhaps "human beings and the realm" can
The current situation of "door coexistence" will become a major trend in the future development of the earth.
Science fights monsters, metaphysics exorcises ghosts. Monsters and resentful spirits will all become a part of human daily life, until - someone comes out who is the strongest to put an end to it all and let the world enter a new chapter.
It is a pity that the devil will come sooner or later, but it will not be absent.
The stargate in the sky was completely opened, like an oval eye, and the shadow it cast covered nearly one-sixth of the earth's surface. It blocked the sun, moon and stars, and blocked the satellite's view. The thick darkness inside rotated,
Squeezing it, it seems like something will spit out at any time.
Human beings understand that some conflicts have accumulated to the point of eruption, and the day of last stand will eventually come. After that, it is life or death, time and fate.
Si Nuocheng sent the last army to the pole and pushed the last team of awakeners to Sichuan and Shu before finally taking a break to take a breath and rub the center of his brow.
It is not easy to be a marshal in his position and to seek his position.
Sitting on this chair is equivalent to controlling life and death. He is responsible for every life, and all decisions must be carefully considered. Now, he is fully prepared, and the next step is to fight to the death and defend to the death.
A large number of lives will be lost...
This is inevitable.
The light in the room was dim, and Si Nuocheng opened his collar and called Ji Si. In the past six months, the team members have been scattered all over the world, and Ji Si has also gone elsewhere. The number of times they get together does not exceed one hand, and occasionally they get busy.
We couldn't contact each other for several days.
However, making a phone call seems to have become a habit. Regardless of whether the other party picks up the phone, it is a way to report that everything is safe.
Si Nuocheng was originally waiting for the ringing to disappear automatically, but he didn't expect Ji Si on the other end to pick up the phone.
"Is there a signal?" Si Nuocheng raised his eyebrows, "Where are you?"
"In the Desert of Death in Tai O." Ji Si stood on the Gobi Desert, holding a talisman pen soaked in cinnabar, and drew a bunch of runes that others could not understand on the rocks.
Beside him is Wang Yiyuan, a hard-working migrant worker. As fate would have it, since Sinuocheng took up the burden of the alliance, Wang Yiyuan could only become Ji Si's servant again.
No way, in Si Nuocheng's view, Ji Si drinks coffee, eats snacks, and checks his mobile phone every day. Except for occasionally fighting monsters, he is no different from ordinary people. Since he can't follow Ji Si everywhere, he can only ask for help.
Wang Yiyuan has an “excellent resume”.
Wang Yiyuan: ...Thank you for looking up to me.
No, I have become a super social beast who works overtime every day.
Ji Si took him around the world not just for a casual walk, but to draw a bunch of messy things at certain specific points. During this period, he was carrying a load, and the boxes at both ends were filled with cinnabar yellow paper, talismans, pens, and ink fountains.
Like a Taoist priest.
They started from Central China and traveled across thousands of rivers and mountains, leaving ghost painting symbols on almost every boundary gate. Now, as long as they have finished painting the Death Desert of Tai O, I think the work is completed.
Wang Yiyuan didn't know what Ji Si was going to do, but he would never ask. As an excellent servant...ah, secretary! You just have to keep an eye on your nose and your heart, no matter what the young master is doing, he is doing it.
Just live.
With this in mind, Wang Yiyuan began to polish the cinnabar diligently.
"What am I drawing?" Ji Si chuckled, "The things I draw are just like the arrangements you are making now. They will be used sooner or later. But you, have you finished the arrangements in Sichuan and Shu?"
"Well, it's a fortress." Si Nuocheng said, "I transferred a large number of good seedlings to Sichuan."
"That's good. The land of Sichuan and Shu is the heart of Central Continent. As long as it can still beat, the destiny of Central Continent will not be cut off." Ji Si said lightly, "In addition, the terrain is difficult, and it is a natural fortress. Even if the devil comes,
There is no benefit, after all, there are not only mountain spirits but also earth dragons there, it is a place blessed by God, but..."
Si Nuocheng listened carefully.
"It can be considered a place where natural disasters occur frequently." Ji Si drew the last stroke and continued, "Its energy fluctuates violently. As long as it can be used properly, it can be a sharp sword."
As for how to use it, naturally let others use their brains. Ji Si will give reminders, but he is not a nanny who does everything personally. In his own opinion, it would be good to bring the people on earth to awakening. He is really a good person.
"When do you plan to come back?" Si Nuocheng asked.
"I can't go back." Ji Si smiled, then suppressed his smile, "You can feel it, too, that feeling of oppression coming from the depths of your soul."
There was silence on the other side.
Ji Si handed the talisman pen to Wang Yiyuan, who quickly cleaned it, combed it, drained it, put it on plastic wrap and stuffed it into the box.
"He's coming, and it won't be long." Ji Si looked into the distance. Now, no matter where he stood and raised his head, he could clearly see the star gate opening. "When the energy reaches its peak, the demon will fall into this world. This
Once, you don’t need me to write another prophecy, right?”
prophecy……
Si Nuocheng suddenly laughed: "Suddenly I remembered what happened in the past. No one believed your prophecies. I didn't expect that things would turn around. Now I wish you could make one prophecy every day."
"I often think about, if I didn't meet you, or you didn't come here, what would be the ending waiting for me?"
Si Nuocheng opened the curtains.
On the outdoor training field, the teenage awakeners who were exerting their strength turned around sharply, with extremely alert expressions. When they saw the gaze directed by the marshal, they relaxed their guard.
They are generally fifteen or sixteen years old, not yet adults. If there was no Ji Si in the world, would they... have survived before?
It's very emotional.
"The ending waiting for you is of course - meeting me." Ji Si said, "I no longer want to find a second Earth to implement the plan again. So let me win, Si Nuo City."
"Okay." Si Nuocheng laughed softly, "You will win."
Ji Si wanted to chat with Si Nuocheng for a while, but at this moment, a "click" sound suddenly came from the star gate in the sky.
It was clearly an extremely small sound that suddenly exploded in the ears of people all over the world. It seemed to be transmitted directly to people's ears across the distance of time and space, making people's scalp numb.
The rotating vortex in the star gate is surging, and the fluctuations of energy are rising layer by layer. The waves surge suddenly and wildly, the fortress is on alert, and the satellite signals begin to blur.
A strong wind blew up, raising countless yellow sands. Wang Yiyuan covered the box with his body, while Ji Si waved his sleeves and brushed away the surging power of the desert of death.
[Boom——] Silent fluctuations, the transparent arc of light dispersed, and the storm all stopped. Ji Si’s big sleeves fell on Wang Yiyuan, his expression slightly condensed.
"Get ready for war, they are coming, very soon." It's faster than expected.
"Understood."
"Sino City." Ji Si suddenly called his name. After a long while, he said, "Survive."
"I promise you."
Ji Si sighed slightly. His heart was filled with compassion.
…
The nerves of all mankind are tense, and there is a possibility of explosion at any time. The strongest awakened people are distributed all over the world. In recent days, they seem to have a collective anxiety disorder, and they always touch weapons unconsciously.
The sense of oppression is getting stronger and stronger, as if even the air has become viscous. Assuming that the energy density of the earth is 1, then the density of this external force is at least 10, which can be called a "dimensionality reduction strike."
Even breathing becomes difficult, and the awakened ones are really afraid that the earth will be crushed. However, except for volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and frequent earthquakes, there seems to be no major events on the earth.
Wang Yiyuan:...Isn’t this a big deal?
The reason is that the runes Ji Si painted on the gate are absorbing the power of the gate, interweaving the energy into a large network in the form of vibrations. It is like covering the earth with a piece of armor, which is enough to withstand the punches of the comers.
Flesh attack.
However, the power of the runes will not last long. Whether it is cinnabar or a rune pen, they are all made of materials on the earth at this stage, and they cannot be said to be treasures of heaven and earth. They can be used for a while, but not for a lifetime. They must use the runes.
Defeat the enemy before being destroyed, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
The living people hiding underground were hiding in shelters, and the bases placed in the mountains also disappeared. The Awakened and the army laid an ambush, and even the scientific research institute intervened in the war.
The cities on the surface are deserted, and the transportation hub area is also dead silent. Only birds fly by and spiders lurk. The earth seems to have entered sleep, and there are no more unnecessary sounds.
The star gate opened, and the vortex was tearing apart bit by bit.
Human eyes can't see this subtle change, but the star gate's coverage is too wide, so they can't even pretend they can't see it.
The spider web-like cracks extended one after another, and the barrier between time and space was shattered. Countless fragments were rubbed into the vortex, going in, and then in, until they converged into a point, and this point spread out
There was an ominous layer of blood.
The feeling of oppression is getting heavier...
"What a god! I'm starving of oxygen!" Someone gasped.
"Jingxin." Zhuo Wuya narrowed his eyes, "Expose your Qi... energy to fight against this wave."
"Didn't we expose our position?" Shao Xiu was stunned.
"Do you think they won't be able to smell the smell of human flesh if the energy is not released outside?" Zhuo Wuya said calmly, "If the energy is released outside, they will be crushed to death. If the energy is released outside, they will find their right position. This is really powerful."
He drew out his sword and made a buzzing sound, and the force field spread to protect himself.
At this moment, a bit of blood light in the star gate grew larger and larger, gradually turning into large mottled areas, covering the star gate in reverse. The thick black seemed to be dyed red by blood, and the world gates everywhere were trembling crazily.
Low-level demons are hitting the realm gate, boom, boom - the number is huge, unmatched by anything in the past.
To be continued...
