Chapter 817 Chapter 810 Six·"TE·All Things Revive (11)"

【City of Measurement, Residential Buildings in the Outer City】

[102km from Central Building. 】

……

"Grandma, grandma, can you tell me a story?" A little girl was leaning against a gray-haired old lady beside an old-fashioned rocking chair.

The bell above the window "jingle bell" rang, and the window next to it had been sealed, so no black mist leaked in.In the narrow house, there are only the old lady and her granddaughter.They cuddled together, and the photo on the table glowed brightly.

"Tuantuan, what story do you want to hear?" the old lady said softly.

"I haven't heard the story of the universe since I was a child. Now the world seems to be destroyed. I want to hear it." The little girl raised her head: "Grandma, how big is the universe? Is it as big as a big puddle?"

The old lady raised her head and thought for a while.

Her cloudy eyes narrowed slightly.

"The universe... the universe is very big. It originated from a big bang, and evolved from a state of extremely high density and temperature...Compared to it, our world of ruins is just an inconspicuous planet "The old lady said: "Because the dimension was blocked many years ago, we couldn't leave the world of ruins and go into space, but I still know that there is a vast and boundless universe above our heads..."

"Grandma. How did you know this?" The little girl blinked.

The old lady squinted her eyes and thought for a long time.

After a moment, she recalled:

"My mother, that is, your grandma, she used to live in the era before the cataclysm of the century - in that era, manned spaceflight technology gradually matured, and people began to engage in various exploration, research, experimentation, production and military affairs in space. Applied round-trip flight activity."

"My mother's memory is not clear. Human beings have had a lot of memories erased since the catastrophe of the century. Not many people remember the era before the cataclysm of the century."

"But at that time, before the cataclysm of the century, she vaguely remembered that the ruined world was not called the ruined world, but the name of a planet. The development of human technology is like a flower blooming, and it is leaping rapidly every year. Mechanical manufacturing, bionic technology, artificial intelligence Fields such as these are advancing at a rapid pace. They have demonstrated quantum entanglement, transplanted genetically modified pig hearts, and developed rudimentary AI. . .

"People are trying to explore the universe beyond the galaxy and find another intelligent civilization. Therefore, they sent signals to the depths of the distant universe, carrying human texts and audio-visual images, expecting to find a civilization similar to them."

"Did they find it?" the little girl asked.

"I found it." The old lady smiled.

"Really? Great, what is that civilization?" The little girl was very excited.It must be very lucky if human beings can find a new civilization in the vast universe.

The old lady patted her head:
"It's called [Tawei]."

"The universe is a Pandora's box, and mankind has unfortunately attracted the devil."

"Ding—" the bell swayed slightly, and the petals of the lilies drooped slightly.

The old lady picked up the group photo on the table, and her rough fingers groped for a black-haired woman in the frame.The little girl watched with her.

The black-haired woman in the photo has long black shiny hair, sly eyes like a little fox, and a beautiful smile.

They watched silently for a long time.

"Is this my great grandma?" said the little girl.

"Hmm." The old lady responded.

The little girl knew that this black-haired woman was her great-grandmother—grandmother was very old, spanning the period of the cataclysm of the century and the War of Dawn. She had made indelible contributions to human civilization and led Soldiers have been on the battlefield themselves.

Grandma Tai died in the catastrophe in 72 years, and the cause of death was the end of her life.

According to the diary left by Grandma Tai, Grandma Tai had a habit when she was young. If she met someone she admired, she would call him "Xiaoshuai".However, the little girl didn't know who actually got such an honor in that era, because her great-grandfather had never been called "Xiaoshuai" by her great-grandmother.Presumably that relationship has been quietly buried by the grandma.

Grandma's name is Xi.

She was really beautiful when she was young.

"Little universe,

"Joyful universe,

"Bouncing and laughing,
"It was when I was a child..."

The little girl was humming a song, leaning against grandma's rocking chair.Grandma sang along with her until the city-state's energy supply ran low and the ceiling lights went out.

The windows were corroded and holed, and the black mist seeped in through the cracks, eroding their skin, and they still sang songs about the universe that could no longer be touched.

The little girl stretched out her rotten hand and looked at the dark ceiling through her five fingers.

She thought, maybe the universe is really big, and the sky is really far away—in distant civilizations, maybe there really are civilizations similar to them, spying on this mysterious and dangerous universe.

Maybe usher in a new life, maybe usher in the end.

How far is the universe and what is life?
"How much new has become old,

"Time never fades away,
"Today I turned to you,
"There must be a change..."

[City of Measurement, Terminal BW-03. 】

[78km from Central Building. 】

……

"The inspection is complete and the aircraft is in good condition."

"The route information and other data have been entered into the cdu (flight management system), the flight plan has been checked, and the engine, lights, wings, etc. have been automatically detected by the Zhudawn flight assistance system."

"This is the Aviation Administration of the City of Measurement. It has detected 03 flight applications from the bw-36 terminal. Please reply with a flashing light. Please reply with a flashing light."

"Report, the concentration of black fog is too high, and the light cannot penetrate a distance beyond 2m."

"A reply has been received."

The heavy rain was majestic, and a few pairs of black-soled rubber shoes stepped on the asphalt road, splashing water.

The sky and the earth are the same color, and the continuous rain condenses into a rain curtain, drifting back and forth in people's unclear vision.The water on the ground is rolling and converging into one piece.

The red light representing alert and the green light representing passage overlapped and flickered in the darkness. A blue-haired young man wearing a military cap stood in the rain. The heavy rain wet his military uniform. The boarding bridge is coming slowly.

Beside him, a total of 36 rows of soldiers hurried past with boxed objects.The small delivery truck made a "woo hoo hoo" sound, carrying several sealed glass jars.

He raised his wrist, and the screen of the watch flickered blue, displaying: [Flight qualification authorized], next to the screen was his name and photo.

"The corridor bridge has been linked, please get on the driver's seat with the personality who has obtained the flight qualification."

"The Aviation Administration has approved the flight application. The flight range is within 100km of the city of measurement, and the flight time is 10 minutes and 40 seconds. This flight mission is an escort mission, and all weapons and equipment of the aircraft have been blocked and cannot be used."

"Pilot Lu Likarpos. The system has recognized your ability to pilot an aircraft and approved you to participate in this escort mission."

The broadcast sound came from the watch, and the blue-haired young man raised his head slightly, his eyes far away.

"Ka-da."

The movable boarding bridge is connected to the plane, and the footsteps of soldiers boarding the plane can be heard above the blue-haired youth.He put his hands down and walked in the direction of the other plane.

A woman with rose red hair walked towards her. She was tall and beautiful, and she was wearing a flight suit.A line of players followed behind her.

They looked at each other through the rain, the thick black mist rattling between their flight suits and military uniforms.

"Violet, has the Origin Stone been transported to the plane?" the blue-haired youth said.

"90.00% of Seven's existing origin stones have been transported towards the signal station at the edge of the world, and less than three percent of the origin stones are stored in the city-state as backup energy. Now, most of them are transported on the plane." Violet said : "Lu. Can you reveal the purpose of this order?"

Lu shook his head:
"This is Su Mingan's order. I don't know what he plans to do next. His plan is all in his mind, and he will not reveal a word to outsiders."

"For civilization, he is more cautious than any of us. His surveillance is everywhere, and any actions and words will be observed. What we can do..."

Lu put his index finger to his lips:

"...Only silence."

Violet opened her eyes slightly and nodded quickly.

The searchlight moved slowly on the medals on their chests, outlining the lines of the city-state's military medals.Including every soldier standing outside the terminal building, the military medals on their chests are shimmering.

Lu raised the horn, and a clear voice came out.

"Everyone, our task is to drive these planes to the vicinity of the Central Building for escort work and protect one person."

"I believe that you can successfully complete this escort mission and win the victory rate for mankind that is less than one in a billion."

"Beyond personal origin, wealth and status, we gather here to face the powerful invaders who want to overthrow human civilization. But I believe that our efforts will not be in vain, and the civilization of the ruined world will surely survive."

"Good luck to you all."

He put down the horn, and Violet smiled at him: "Copying Su Mingan's speech back then, it's pretty smooth? Seriously, everyone here doesn't know why they are flying to the Central Building now. Could Su Mingan be in any danger? ?”

"Get on the plane, don't talk about it, I don't know about this kind of thing, we are only responsible for following orders." Lu smiled and shook his head, and boarded the helicopter beside him.

Violet and other players boarded other planes as passengers, while the npc pilot sat in the driver's seat.With the exception of one person, Lu directly boarded the pilot's seat of a helicopter with his hands in front of the console.

"It's been a long time since I drove." Lu recalled his past: "When I was flying a plane, it was when I threw criminal gangs out of the plane at the age of 23."

"You had a lot of experience when you were young." Ruiying, a player in the back row, smiled and said, "I heard that you were an arms dealer who wandered in the gray area back then. No wonder you could fire airplanes and cannons."

Lu turned his head to look at him, and smiled gently, but the smile was dark no matter how you looked:

"Ruiying, don't talk nonsense, all I do is serious business."

"Drip, drip."

"Identified. Pilot Lou Lycarpos."

"The destination of this flight is the Central Building of the City of Measurement."

"Mission objective - Santo Asa Actor."

"Mission purpose - escort mission."

"May you succeed in your mission."

"Human civilization survives forever."

An icy announcement sounded, followed by similar announcements from other planes.

In the rainstorm, the two direct spotlights of "Deng" and "Deng" pierced the rain curtain like sharp swords.Next, two lights, four lights, eight lights, sixteen lights came on again...until 36 planes took off.

Like wild geese in a herringbone shape, one plane heads up, and the rest of the planes divide into two rows and follow behind.

"May human civilization last forever."

"May human civilization last forever."

All kinds of voices sounded from the communication microphone, like surging waves.The voice is mixed with thick accents and dialects, but expresses a consistent tone and vision.

Continue civilization.

—Continue civilization at all costs.

"Om, oom, oom—"

The propellers spun rapidly, and the terminal lights on the ground lighted up slightly.Use the minimum resource consumption to supply the aircraft to take off.

Like dozens of hawks taking off, the plane rushed into the dark sky against the heavy rain and black fog that obscured the view, like 36 sharp swords piercing the darkness.Only the scarlet radar dots on the screen, like morning stars, indicated their direction.

"May Zhai Xing's civilization be like the civilization of the ruined world..."

Lu drove the helicopter to the front of the 36 planes, like a piloting hummingbird.He lit a cigarette with trembling fingers, ignoring the no-smoking orders yelled at by the flight system.

He tapped the soot with his index finger, curled up his lips, and smiled slightly:

"... last forever."

[Measurement City, Outer City District. 】

[32km from Central Building. 】

……

After leaving the underground hibernation cabin, Noel found Su Lin who was coming, and asked Su Lin to use the dream weaving technique to secretly convey the next move to several players.Under their call, in just over ten minutes, thousands of people followed behind them.

"Come here—follow me!"

Players who could drive boarded the car one after another.Long strips of flying soil rose up behind the truck, like thunder covering the ground.

They drove in the direction of the central building, like ten thousand horses galloping.

Meanwhile, the citizens of the city-state run for Noor's orders.They set out to find anything to burn.Flint, torches, firewood, even clothes and cloth... Even though they didn't know the meaning of these orders, they still obeyed them.

Alleys, high-rise buildings, and streets are indistinguishable from men, women, and children, and people's figures are constantly swarming in the darkness.

Night has come, heavy rain is drifting, and there are continuous sounds of trucks galloping, motorcycles starting, and people's footsteps... In this thick and eternal night, it seems that there are still countless hopeful creatures.

"Sir, look, is my lighter okay?" A stubble-bearded man grabbed Noel and said with a smile: "I smoked it a few days ago, and it should still work."

"Yes, thank you." Noel took the lighter.
