Four Hundred and Sixty-Four Lost Walls

"Extra! Extra! Demons are massacring the southern region! 300,000 refugees are homeless! Extra! Extra!" At the intersection of a slightly old street, a newsboy waved a newspaper in his hand, chanting frantically.

From time to time, a pedestrian passed by him, threw him a coin, and then took a newspaper from his satchel on his chest, and walked forward while lowering his head to carefully read the content on it.

This headline is still very exciting. Although many people have seen the morning news, reading newspapers is still a pastime, and some people still buy them, and some people are still willing to get some current affairs news from this relatively "old" way.

Although newspapers have just been invented for a few years, they are still beginning to be eliminated. Today's newspaper has been overshadowed by TV news and the emerging Internet, and has become a specific hobby of a specific group of people.

Seeing that his voice was better, the newsboy also worked harder to sell the newspapers in his hands: "People are food! The Bameshir area is occupied by demons! It's horrible! Come and buy it!"

His shouts attracted more curious people. Although TVs are beginning to become popular, there are still many civilians in this block, and not many people can afford to buy a TV.

On the newspaper, a photo from the front line of the battlefield, among the ruins, a few fleeing civilians are extremely nervous, looking at the camera, full of fear and despair.

On the huge black font, the title is shocking, and the subtitle also makes people feel hairy - Demons are feeding on humans in the southern region, and the Bame Hill region is bleeding into rivers.

Bathed in the peaceful sunshine, people who have hardly heard of any tragic war in the past five years gathered together in twos and threes, shaking their heads and sighing at the newspaper.

Although they are still not rich, but compared to their previous life, they have already solved their own food and clothing, and even have spare money to buy clothes.

These civilians no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat, nor do they have to worry about being naked. Although they can only live in a small apartment, their life has improved too much for them.

So now they are not only familiar with those distant horror terms, but also cherish the beauty of the present - after their personal comparison, they are convinced that they are living in a great empire worthy of allegiance.

"My God, they actually eat people, so they must be wiped out..." A commoner looked at the newspaper and said with emotion.

Another commoner nodded and agreed with his neighbor: "Isn't it, think about it,

I feel terrible... How can this be a different kind, this is clearly a devil! They must all be burned to death! "

A car passed by on the main road, and the morning news was broadcast on the radio in the car-these terrible things were said word by word by the announcer, which made the people in the car very nervous.

Now that everyone is so rich and rich, don't let a group of scary man-eating monsters ruin everyone's life, then it's really over.

No one wants to lose this kind of life, so everyone is very sensitive to the topic of "monster invasion".

In the car, the young rich man sitting in the back row sighed, asked the driver to help him turn off the radio, and looked out the window worriedly.

Now this empire can be said to be really powerful, but many things are still not so reassuring.

For example, the city is getting bigger and bigger, it has expanded to ten times and hundreds of times before, and Serris City is even big enough to cover almost the entire territory of Serris.

And these expanded cities did not build any fortifications at all, and even the original fortifications were all demolished due to the shortage of land.

Taking Serris as an example, the places where the anti-aircraft artillery positions, city walls, and searchlights were located are now the luxury residential areas in the inner ring.

These places have long since lost those cold reinforced concrete towers, towering cannons, and thick city walls.

Instead, there are wide streets, beautiful green plants, and towering buildings-these things can't fight, and they don't seem to have any defense capabilities.

The only thing that seems to be gratifying is that the underground bunkers in these cities are well-built, with underground blocks, bustling subways and underground shopping malls. Most of them can be used as air-raid shelters, and also take into account the function of storing materials.

It's nerve-wracking that if the demons break through the borders and defeat the field forces that are fighting in foreign lands, then these big cities are almost defenseless, at least it seems that way...

There are no city walls or trenches here, and everything that restricts the development of the city seems to have been demolished.

There are very few troops stationed on the edge of the city, and most of the time they can't even see these soldiers who are only training in closed doors.

Except for the air force that can occasionally be seen out for training, and the huge floating transport ship that moves not so fast, ordinary people don't even feel the existence of war.

Many soldiers can even go home, spend a few months of vacation with their relatives, and then return to the front line to fight-how can this be called a state of war?

"Look at this group of people... If the demons invade Alan Hill, they will all be eaten... Our business will be ruined, and this place will become a hell on earth." The young rich man thought a lot, and suddenly said to himself language.

He might be talking to his driver, but the driver concentrated on driving. After a while, he considered his tone and replied, "As long as you are safe, young master. We can leave Dossenaar and go to Serris."

In his driver's opinion, Dossenaar is already a very safe and great city. It has expanded tenfold in the past two years. , compared to before that is really a world of difference.

Since the occupation of Alan Hill, war seems to be a distant term. No one believed that the enemy would come here, because the enemy closest to here had already been beaten to the Flanno River Basin.

"You don't understand...you don't understand..." The young rich man still has vision. He feels that once the troops on the border of Alan Hill are wiped out by the enemy, the enemy will drive straight in. None of the cities behind will be safe. insurance.

But he still didn't say this, because the other party was just his driver, just a subordinate who was not on the same level as him.

It seems that it is necessary to transfer the business I run from the south to the north. At least you can buy a double insurance, in case something goes wrong, you can still keep half of your net worth...

It's just that the land in the north...the price is really exaggerated and scary. It is said that artificial labor is also expensive, and the shareholders may not be willing to rashly transfer their own industry to a part of the north.

"Alas..." Thinking of this, he sighed and shook his head slightly. In his opinion, they were all a bunch of idiots who only cared about their immediate interests.

As he was thinking, the car had already driven into the gate of his company. Outside the gate, there is still an endless stream of people going to work, this place is still heaven, no matter how far away it is, it has become hell.

Out of his sight, the dwarf's Ironforge was building a fifteenth floating transport ship, and even more similar floating transport ships were under construction at the same time.

At the same time, in Serris, the second floating battleship has begun to enter service testing, and in the arsenal far away in Tubao, the third floating battleship has also been built... Soon these warships will be put into use, forming the original concept Yes, the Sky Fleet of Elanhill.

Compared with the troops deployed on the periphery, the combat effectiveness in the core area of ​​Alan Hill is actually not weak at all, but it is hidden under the favorable economic recovery and is not so easy to be discovered.

Among other things, just look at the increasing number of super god puppets that have begun to become less valuable, as well as those nuclear weapons that are buried deep in the ground, with terrifying power and increasing numbers, and you will know that Alan Xi In fact, Seoul did not relax the army building at all.

Not only did it not relax, it was actually greatly strengthened. In countless laboratories, weapons of mass destruction of Alan Hill have actually been developed in an endless stream, and many of them are very targeted and terrifying weapons.

For example, Alan Hill is researching a genetic weapon against demons. Once developed, this weapon can use a wide range of infectious diseases to destroy countless demon troops.

This weapon has been tested on the Devil Dog for a long time, but it has not been fully developed yet.

For another example, the mountain that is preparing to be launched into the sky... If you compare it, it is a terrifying existence comparable to hundreds, or even thousands of nuclear weapons.

Once that thing is successfully released, maybe the demons in one direction will be completely wiped out, and there will be no ashes left...

What Alan Hill reduced was only conventional troops, and none of the truly cutting-edge weapon development plans slowed down the speed of research and development.

Including individual equipment, heavy weapons, and even new fighter jets, Alan Hill is constantly stockpiling technology.

There are even laboratories that are studying human genetic improvement—this direction seems to be a bit ahead, but because of the existence of magicians, human genetic enhancement is believed by many people, and a lot of energy has been invested in research.

In short, Alan Hill is far from being reduced to a situation where the outside is strong, but on the contrary, it is gathering more power to prepare for the next eruption to give all allies and all enemies a big "surprise" .
