Chapter 856: The Fall of Gods and the Chaos of People's Hearts!
Time is like running water, passing in a flash.
Before I knew it, two days had passed.
Since the sun was broken, the sky in the wasteland has been completely fixed in the evening, with only a faint light falling from the foggy sky.
And the three giant gods who swept across the entire corpse tide and forced the five royal families to hide in their "turtle shells" did not disappear immediately.
For two days, they stood between heaven and earth at all times, overlooking the world like guards.
No one knew what they were doing specifically.
But the sudden drop in temperature in the wasteland and the increasingly dense rain and snow turned this summer into a cold hell!
In the middle of the New World, at the border of Tianyuan.
The construction site of the sky-supporting wall, which was in full swing, has completely announced an unlimited suspension of construction.
Those walls that have not yet been completed are not covered, and large pieces of snow fall on the parapet with the wind, pressing the wooden frame to creak.
Not far behind the wall.
The temporary tent camp, which used to be bustling with people, is now dead silent, with daily necessities scattered and abandoned on the ground everywhere.
Several pots and pans that were not collected in time were blown around in the camp, making ding-dong and ding-dong sounds.
It was only forty-eight hours before and after, as the temperature outside dropped indefinitely.
As early as last night when the temperature dropped to minus forty degrees, all the survivors were temporarily transferred to the Sky City under construction to spend this rare winter there.
However, Sky City is not a place that can completely shield from the wind and snow.
Heavy snow.
In Sky City, which is already full of snow, both sides of the narrow main road are full of temporary construction sites with foundations.
The new citizens, who are densely packed like ant colonies, are wearing heavy cotton-padded clothes and are pulling the snow to the outside of the city.
In theory, humans should be unable to move in such weather, and there is no extra physical strength to carry out such large-scale labor.
But strangely, the territory of Tianyuan and the territory outside are like two different worlds.
The temperature inside is not only higher, but the physical exertion caused by the low temperature and heavy clothes is also significantly less.
Going inside Tianji City, past the clumps of cleared snow, in a four-story spire building that has been built.
Chen Shen and Zhang Da, who looked tired, stood side by side, looking into the distance.
"How is the arrangement of cold-resistant supplies? How many gaps are there now?" Witnessing the rise of a new city again, Chen Shen had inexplicable feelings and worries in his heart.
This is the first time that Tianyuan Territory has directly built a city-level city, but at the beginning, it encountered obstacles such as sudden changes in temperature.
Not to mention that the construction in the city has been suspended, the daily living expenses of the four million people stationed here are an astronomical figure.
And every day, hundreds of thousands of refugees are rushing in from outside the sky-supporting wall and entering here to station.
In order to ensure the normal order in Tianji City, the number of Tianyuan troops now deployed exceeds 5,000.
Even so, a small-scale riot caused by cold-resistant materials occurred in Tianji City last night.
A large number of new citizens who failed to buy cotton clothes in time collectively fled here and went to the cities in the inner area of Tianyuan Territory.
If Feng Long had not used thunder to suppress it, there would be no such peaceful scene today.
"The impact of snowfall and temperature drop is too great. Our land transportation has completely stopped. Fortunately, the trading market can solve the urgent problem, but it still takes some time to operate and raise materials for millions of people. There is still a gap of about 1.5 million now."
Zhang Da, who always likes accuracy, did not give an exact number, which is enough to show how huge the gap in materials is now.
Cold-resistant materials are not just a simple hot food.
In order to maintain the normal operation of the city, it is necessary not only to prepare cotton clothes, boots, earmuffs, masks, gloves, etc. to resist low temperatures.
There are also medicines for treating diseases caused by low temperatures, electric heating facilities responsible for urban heating, etc.
There is no territory in the wasteland that has such a large supply of materials.
That is, the trading market was opened, and finally the three territories that were still alive were connected, so that a steady stream of material reserves could be delivered.
"One million and a half million" Hearing this number, which was larger than the total population of Tianyuan Territory a year ago, Chen Shen had a headache.
Becoming a big fat man in one go is not a good thing.
Just like now, the management of Tianji City is almost paralyzed, and the population here must be divided and transferred quickly.
As for where the population is transferred to.
Thinking of the results of the special communication with the Academy of Sciences, he pondered and said: "How many laborers can we withdraw from Tianji City now?"
"Draw?" Zhang Da frowned and said: "The new citizens of Tianji City are either a collective of territory or a collective of family. If you want to transfer one person, you must take the old, weak, women and children in the collective with you. The ratio between the two is about 73, which means that if one million people are withdrawn, at least 300,000 people will not be able to provide any labor in the short term."
"And once we transfer the main force, the normal operation of Tianji City will also be affected."
"So troublesome?" Chen Shen sighed, and for a moment he regretted that the acceptance policy formulated at that time had not considered a layer, and did not select these people in advance according to the proportion.
At present, even if it is troublesome, we can only force the duck to go on the shelf.
Thinking of this, Chen Shen wanted to give instructions.
But at this moment.
Boom!
The wasteland that had been gloomy suddenly became brighter with the explosion, as if the sun was emerging from the dark clouds again.
The two people quickly looked up and looked outside, but the next second, they were both stunned by the window.
The giant god who stood in the sky without making any sound for two days.
At this time, Louis Relf, the god of movement, who was in the middle, was whimpering, holding his neck with both hands, and screaming as if someone had strangled his neck.
The huge harp leaning next to him burst out with brilliant light of pale gold, as if it wanted to save people.
But to no avail, a strange black color suddenly appeared from under Louis Relf's feet and spread upward at an extremely fast speed.
First the feet, legs, then the waist, neck, and face.
In less than a minute, Louis Relf's whole body seemed to have faded, suddenly turning into black and white, and stopped moving.
And his huge golden harp did not escape this fate. It was gradually stained with black, and the golden light burning on it gradually disappeared and returned to ordinary.
"A mere ant overestimates his own capabilities and kills one person first to serve as a warning to others."
"In three days, you will die!"
A shaking sound seemed to come from outside the sky.
Whether it was thousands of meters underground or on top of the snow-capped mountains, I could clearly hear this seemingly familiar voice.
But before anyone could go to the World Channel to discuss it, the remaining God of Hunting, Yu Tie, and God of Wine, Herbert, were also entangled in this black filth.
In mid-air, they roared and struggled hard.
Continuously bursting out bursts of bright light to clear away this difficult filth.
But unfortunately, just like Louis Relf, although these rays of light can hinder the speed of filth and slow down, they can never be completely removed.
In desperation, Yu Tie, the God of Hunting, was the first to choose the strong man to cut off his wrist. He decisively gestured with his knife and swung his infected right leg.
The giant legs that were hundreds of meters away from the body suddenly shattered into dots of green light and disappeared between the sky and the earth.
Herbert dug into his abdomen, cut open a large hole, and removed all the contaminated flesh and blood.
The two looked at each other and could see the undisguised fear in each other's eyes.
"Damn it, the strength of the five great ancestor gods is too strong, we must"
Herbert's thunderous voice did not quite fall.
Suddenly.
The black filth that had just been removed magically appeared in the void, attacking the two bodies crazily.
hiss.
He quickly opened the cork of the wine bottle, swallowed a large mouthful of wine, and spurted out the filth.
There was a crackling sound, and dense white smoke rose into the sky, forming new clouds.
Most of the filth was eliminated, but some parts still rushed through the surrounding wine and flew towards the two of them.
"No, retreat first!"
Yu Tie groaned and was the first to choose to shatter his body, turning into a point of light and disappearing between heaven and earth.
Herbert's speed was not slow either. He managed to catch up with the filth at the same moment, and he sprayed out another mouthful of wine to cover his disappearance.
In just a few minutes, two of the three great gods were injured and one died.
Only Louis Relf, who seemed to have been petrified, stayed in place, with the same frightened expression on his face.
"They lost?!"
Unable to realize what happened, Chen Shen looked shocked and stood by the window completely stunned.
A few days ago, Long Anguo had a big sell-off, but it was not until the last moment that he pulled out this trump card and shocked everyone.
At that time, he put down his bold words and would definitely make the five great ancestor gods come and go.
But now, before the five great ancestor gods have arrived, it has already turned into this scene?
"Mayor, it's terrible. The World Channel said that the person who just made the sound was the Cursed Tiger Ancestor God that Su Shen faced back then. He and the others are still alive and back!" Zhang Da quickly browsed the World Channel, his whole body trembling uncontrollably. .
The appearance of the giant god in the past two days has been enthusiastically praised by countless humans on the world channel.
It has made too many people feel that the future is promising, even if the sun disappears and Su Shen disappears.
Human beings can also rely on the three gods to survive this dark time and embrace a new life again.
But until now, one died and two were injured.
As expected, the fear left behind by the gods swept back once again.
You can find this out just by looking at the countless desperate speeches on the World Channel at this time.
this moment.
People's hearts are completely in chaos!
The vast wind and snow were beating against the windows, and the atmosphere in the auditorium classroom of the Academy of Sciences was frighteningly dull.
Thousands of students who were originally actively discussing how to deal with hypothermia disasters fell into silence as if being strangled by the neck as the three gods were casualties one after another.
Creak.
Sumo stood by the window, slowly closed the newly opened window, and returned to the podium.
On the blackboard, there are still three big characters written at this time.
Sky Tower.
Although today is not his first class at the Academy of Sciences, it is his first lecture on architecture.
It's a pity that the death of the god interrupted the lively classroom atmosphere, making everyone feel despair again.
Especially now, the last protection of the three gods for the rules of nature has been lost.
The temperature dropped faster and the pelting frequency of rain and snow increased, making the quiet auditorium even more silent.
Half of the people were confused and lying flat on the stool, their brains completely empty.
Among the remaining half, some people wanted to say something, but the words stuck in their mouths.
Only a few people were silent for a while, and suddenly shouted in disorder: "The end of the world is coming, what's the use of our underground civilization plan? The gods are so powerful, as long as the five ancestors have a finger, the territory we have worked so hard to build will be destroyed immediately!"
"The gods are much stronger now than they were back then, and now they don't even take our missiles seriously!"
"What should we do, are we really going to die?"
"If the Dragon Flag Territory had developed information about the gods earlier, our Academy of Sciences would have been able to research ways to popularize it. If all of us humans were gods, how dare the five ancestors come and act arrogantly?!"
"Run, let's run quickly, the end of the world is coming!!"
""
In an instant, the chaotic speeches made the auditorium classroom seem like a vegetable market.
Although the people present were already at the top of the surviving human knowledge system, and had recently come into contact with the concept of divine power.
But facing the completely incomprehensible supernatural power of the gods, they still collapsed.
At this time, they had no intention to think about the future of mankind, because after just three days, mankind will face the final judgment.
"Teacher, you don't seem surprised?"
Fang Shuci, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly spoke softly. He looked at Su Mo's face, which was only calm as expected.
He looked around at the students sitting around, the professors on the side of the front row, and the hundreds of people behind him who were visible to the naked eye.
Most people's faces were either panicked and at a loss, or despair of the coming doomsday.
There was a sharp contrast between the two.
"What's unexpected? Are you surprised that they lost the war?" Su Mo smiled faintly and picked up the handout manual on the desk, which made Fang Shuci's face more surprised.
Looking at this, the three major human gods are dead, and the five alien ancestors will attack again in only three days.
But he actually planned to continue the class?
"The five great ancestors are coming soon, and our human gods are no match for them."
"Teacher, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid?" Su Mo did not deny it and nodded slightly: "It's normal for them to be afraid, but I'm not afraid."
"Why?"
Fang Shuci asked an answer that several people around him wanted to know.
Zhang Bowen, who was sitting next to him, also widened his eyes and looked straight at Su Mo's face.
Although he knew that his teacher was very strong, it was only in the field of knowledge, and did not transcend the limitations of the human body.
Facing the giant gods of thousands of meters, facing these unreasonable creatures.
Humans are too small, just like ants to giants, even if they try their best, they can't make the other party feel a little threatened.
"Why is this a good question."
Su Mo smiled warmly, stood up gently, and stood in front of the water circle that amplified the sound.
"Classmates, be quiet!"
The rumbling shouts were amplified by the water circle, and reflected by the walls of the auditorium, making a thunderous sound.
It comes from the habit of the classroom these days.
Almost at the same time, everyone stopped their actions involuntarily and looked over in unison.
"Seeing everyone's reaction now, I suddenly thought of the extracurricular homework I will assign to you after class today."
"Homework? There is still homework when the world is about to end?"
"Teacher, we humans are all finished. You don't think the remaining two gods can still defeat the five ancestral gods, right?"
"We are naturally at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. Why, why didn't they disclose the ways to become gods earlier, otherwise now..."
"Otherwise, will you become a god?" Looking at the young man who spoke, Su Mo's eyes were extremely sharp.
After just one glance, the other party lowered his head in shame, obviously proving his inner weakness.
"You are afraid, you are afraid, you complain, and even have the idea of surrendering, which is normal"
"But for today's homework, I want to test you."
"Whoever can answer a satisfactory answer in the last lesson tomorrow, I will have a special gift for you."
"See clearly."
Su Mo's clear voice sounded and reached everyone's ears.
He turned around and wrote a line of beautiful and square characters on the blackboard.
‘Homework’
‘If the five great ancestors are not coming now, how long will it take for us humans to have a chance to resist? ’
This is not a very special question, but it is a question that goes straight to the core.
It tears apart all the excuses that humans use to comfort themselves, and completely tears apart all the flowers and brocade that cover up the current situation of mankind.
“How many years later will we have a chance to win?” Fang Shuci silently repeated, and the whole person was completely stunned.
Indeed, human technology has reached its limit here.
These nine years.
Even if the survivors of the wasteland have inherited a lot of magical technologies left over from the wasteland, they can’t even survive the continuous natural disasters.
Instead, the identity system, territory system, currency deficit, scientific research barriers, information cocoon, these strange systems that hinder the collective development of mankind and support the affluent life of a few humans have been introduced one after another.
The bad nature rooted deep in human genes and the various systems that have been extended from Earth have forcibly wiped out the advantages of the human system that has been rebuilt in the wasteland, and the return of class has once again been deeply engraved on everyone's forehead.
Under such circumstances, how many years will it take for humans to develop and have the opportunity to truly have the strength to have an equal dialogue with the five ancestral gods?
The answer is
There will never be a chance!
