…
Ink black clouds roiled as the heavens and the earth dimmed, and it was cold and devoid of light. Violent gales swept through the earth accompanied by waves of beast roars that resounded through the heavens and the earth, and it shook the surroundings and caused one's hair to stand on end.
On the vast land, withered grass was flying wildly. A majestic city stood in the fierce wind. The city walls were majestic, and countless black figures stood on them. Their heads were shaking, and there were heart-wrenching roars coming from within.
In front of this base city, countless monsters were advancing toward the city walls. Some were as tall as buildings, and their bodies were huge. As they walked, the ground rumbled and cracked. Some were small, and they were moving under the legs of these huge monsters. Some of them were natural enemies, but under the leadership of their respective leaders, they didn't fight. It was a mess.
"Charge!
Roar ~ ~ "
In the black torrent, countless monsters were charging. An eight-meter-long golden-eyed purple ape held a huge mace and led the army behind it to charge toward the city walls.
On the city walls, many generals of the base city and warriors of various guilds occupied the city walls. Among them, at the vanguard of the fort, there was a middle-aged man in golden armor. He held a golden longsword that was six feet long and as wide as a palm. It was covered in fine lines and stained with blood.
He stood there, his blood-red cape fluttering in the wind. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he held the sword hilt in his hand. He looked down at the endless army of monsters with a serious expression.
Suddenly —
In the distance, a young man flew over. He cupped his fists and bowed. "Commander Murong, the east corner of the city wall has fallen. A wave of monsters has rushed in!"
Murong De's eyes darkened, but his expression did not change much. He looked at the countless ferocious monsters under the gloomy dark clouds. An earth-shattering aura rushed towards him, causing him to feel suffocated. If an ordinary person were to stand here, just by hearing the deafening roar, they would be so scared that their legs would go weak, they would lose control of their bowels, or even have a mental breakdown.
The wind howled.
The dark clouds churned.
Endless darkness fell and covered the land. It was as if all hope was extinguished in that darkness …
Murong Duc clenched his fists. His trembling arms slowly calmed down after some time.
"Send Emperor Youyue and Emperor Gujian to reinforce them!"
The Murong Duc's cloak fluttered in the wind, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife. "Bring out the stored missiles, explosives, and ammunition. Also … prepare the nuclear bombs for launch!"
The young man's body trembled, but he didn't dare to tarry. He quickly turned around and left.
Ever since they had obtained the Atlantis civilization, China Base City had developed rapidly. Many strong people had been born there. Using the Virtual Battle Tower, they had discovered many geniuses who had powerful combat skills but did not have the physique to strengthen their bodies. These people were all recruited by the Base City and the major guilds, and they were given the best resources to cultivate!
Combat skills required a year, two years, or even ten years of hard work. Only by practicing day and night would one be able to achieve something!
As for Physique, as long as there was enough Foundation Meat, it could be improved.
Under these circumstances, geniuses rose up one after another, erupting with dazzling radiance.
At Ye Chen's Nine Dragon Mountain, they had been bestowed the title of King after a single battle. These people felt that their strength had increased, and they had also received the approval of many people. Thus, they were bestowed the title of 'Emperor' level powerhouses!
Honorable, lofty, powerful!
Every Emperor level powerhouse had the strength of around Level 200, but they did not awaken the Superman gene. The main reason was that … they were afraid of death!
The probability of awakening the Superman gene was only one in ten thousand!
Every Emperor level powerhouse cherished their own lives very much. They would not do such a risky thing.
Only those who could not see tomorrow, under the threat of hunger and monsters, who wanted to commit suicide but could not do it, would choose to do such a thing … Anyway, failure meant death. There would be no pain. If they succeeded, they could even become a Superman powerhouse whose status surpassed the Emperor level!
Murong Duc said to a general beside him in a deep voice, "How many civilians, children, and women have retreated into the Atlantis city?"
The general hurriedly replied, "Already 60%!"
Murong Duc was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he said, "Go and give the order. In at most ten minutes, the space entrance of the Atlantis civilization will be completely closed. At that time, those who do not enter will not be given a chance!
Remember, only tell the generals in charge of maintaining order. Do not spread the news. I don't want the situation to fall into a more chaotic state at this time! "
The general's face turned pale. He said in a trembling voice, "Yes." He lowered his head, turned around, and flew away.
The entire China Base City could accommodate more than ten million entrances. There were still 40% of the entrances that had not been evacuated. That was four million people!
It was equivalent to the entire entrance of the Polish Base City. How many people could be evacuated in just ten minutes?
One had to know that there was only one passage!
"Don't blame me …" Murong De looked into the distance, only to see dark clouds covering the sky. Countless howls and howls were accompanied by a strong wind, and the air became slightly cold. A drop of water fell on his face, cool.
His hands trembled slightly. He knew that in the face of such a huge monster bombardment, the soldiers of the base city could not hold on. Ten minutes was already the limit. At the moment of the extinction of the race, he could only let the more outstanding people survive!
As a ruler, he must be decisive!
Just like when he was a child, Murong Duc heard a story told by his father. There was only one boat that could carry 50 people, but 60 people were drowned in the sea. If all these people were loaded, the boat would sink. How should he choose?
When he was young, he chose to load all these people without hesitation. He was full of vigor and righteousness. If they were to die, they would die together!
But now, the burden on his shoulders was not just 50 or 60 people, but tens of millions of people!
Could he drag tens of millions of people down with him?
Therefore, he told himself that this was the inevitable result. Perhaps it was unfair to those who were abandoned. However, only the weak were abandoned. If you did not want to be abandoned, then work hard to become stronger!
After the apocalypse, everyone was equal. There were examples of people who were not evolved humans but surpassed evolved humans. For example … Killing God, Ye Chen!
In addition, there were many soldiers. Although they were not as strong as evolved humans, they could still fend for themselves. Therefore, if they were abandoned, they could not blame others …
Murong Duc thought so in his heart. There was a trace of bitterness in his mouth. Was this considered self-consolation?
In the base city, there was a chaotic atmosphere.
Many people flocked to the city center. However, this was a city that could accommodate more than 10 million people. The scale was huge. Many people who were not strong would need at least a few hours to run from the periphery. Even so, there were still people who did not give up!
"Everyone, run! Hide in the city of Atlantis to take refuge!"
"Ah, they stepped on me!!!"
Some survivors had their thighs bitten off by monsters. They did not have the funds to go to the gene chamber for treatment, so they could only become disabled. They limped towards the center of the city. When they were brushed by other survivors behind them, they lost their balance and fell down. Soon, they were trampled into meat paste!
Not to mention not helping, they did not even look at them!
Under the gloomy light, on the streets, groups of pedestrians were like ants. They rushed forward in groups, converging into a black line. It was extremely chaotic. Everyone gritted their teeth and rushed forward. Some even pushed down the people beside them to block others while they ran first.
"Woo woo … Mom!"
A little girl was standing alone in the middle of the street. She was wearing a pink undergarment and was crying her eyes out. Suddenly, a group of people rushed up behind her. Someone bumped into the little girl, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. Not long after, when the crowd left, only a pool of blood and mud was left behind. There was also a trampled pink undergarment.
In the city center, at the space connection of Atlantis, it was even more chaotic.
"Ah ah ah, let me in, I want to go in!!!"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!!"
"F * ck you in front, hurry up and go in, or get lost!!!"
"Go in!!
Why are you standing still? Go in!!! "
Countless roars and curses were heard. Outside the black hole passage, a large black crowd with no end in sight swarmed and blocked the entire passage. The people who were squeezed inside could not move an inch. Before the people in front could move, the people behind were squeezing in. Everyone knew that as long as they entered the city, they would be really safe. No matter how many monsters there were, they were not afraid. Once the space connection was closed, the monsters would not be able to enter.
Everyone was in a frenzy. Their faces and ears were red as they screamed.
Beside them, there were many generals and soldiers who were trying to maintain order. They pulled the trigger on their pistols, trying to intimidate the crowd. However, under the frenzy of voices, the gunshots seemed weak and did not have any deterrence at all.
Below the crowd, some children had their arms broken or were trampled into meat paste. Many disabled people were directly thrown out of the crowd by those who were stronger. Not only were they not scolded, but they were also welcomed with cheers from the crowd.
"F * ck, you're all disabled, and you still want to squeeze in? You should just die in a few hits."
"Wasting my time. What's the point of a disabled person living?"
"Opportunities should be left to the latecomers. This idiot actually doesn't know that a strong person like me is worth much more than you!"
In the face of many people who were angry and spouting nonsense, the scene was extremely noisy.
As time passed, ten minutes quickly passed. In the crowded passage, only ten to twenty thousand people had entered in these ten minutes. The more chaotic it was, the fewer people who entered.
"Close the passage," a general ordered into the communicator in his hand.
Boom ~ ~ ~
The huge black hole slowly shrunk and disappeared in front of everyone's shocked eyes.
"It's gone?"
"How did it disappear?"
"Where's the passage?!!!"
Everyone glared at the soldiers who were maintaining order at the side.
A general stood up and said coldly, "The city of Atlantis can no longer carry it. Everyone, please enter the underground air defense tunnel to take refuge!"
"Air defense tunnel?
F * ck you! "
"You can take refuge in the air defense tunnel?
Are you a child? Once the monster army attacks, all the buildings will be swept away. What's the use of hiding there?! "
"F * ck, this b * stard is purely abandoning us and letting us leave. Then, he will open the space passage and take the soldiers in. He's too despicable!"
"Despicable, shameless!!"
Many people became more agitated, full of resentment and anger.
"Everyone, let's kill him together. At most, we'll die together!!!"
"Yes, we'll die together!!!"
"F * ck, you want to abandon us? You can go and die too!!"
Many people roared. Like ferocious wolves, they rushed to the soldiers and generals beside them.
