mechanical court

In the frightened eyes of the madman, a sharp blade pierced through the sky and penetrated into this pitch-black space.The dazzling shattered light surrounds the edge of the sword, like the hand of a god smoothing the darkness, and the whole space is crushed into shining fragments by this force.

one-one-one-one

The old man rode forward rapidly on the mechanical disc, looked back at the position of the church, and saw a bright spot of light; but it was not the light that nourished all things, but the light of destruction.

Then, he saw that the dazzling light suddenly sunken slightly inward, and the entire church was engulfed by the vortex of light and dragged into the abyss.

……

In the depths of the light, a tall figure stood on the ruins of the church, and there seemed to be a flame in the golden eyes.

Seeing the old man fleeing quickly, he did not go forward to pursue, but put the long sword in his hand into the scabbard.Then he untied the wine jug hanging from his belt, raised his neck and drank heartily.

Chapter 1 Seventy A Business

St. Oriole College, Class 101, majoring in media.

"Hey, hello! Have you heard? Late last night, something happened to the cathedral of the college! The entire school district, including the church, was completely razed to the ground, and there was no trace of the suspect in the surveillance footage!"

"The news in the morning has spread all over the place. If there is such a big noise, it must be some unscrupulous garbage!"

"Don't rely on the people in the lawless zone for everything, okay!? Our place is tens of light years away from the lawless zone, and there is no sense of existence. What are they attacking the church of the academy for!?"

"In my opinion, most of the time the government borrowed our school's grounds to carry out weapons experiments, and then accidentally got rid of it!"

"Stop watching disaster movies made by the Kashini people, you will be stupid if you watch too many!"

During the morning break, the students gathered in groups of twos and threes, discussing what happened in the academy last night.

Since similar terrorist attacks are extremely rare in Crystal City, this time it happened next to them, directly igniting the gossip souls of everyone; even the most out-of-group students participated in this group discussion.

"That's right, there's also a major incident on the pedestrian street! It is said that two monsters fought privately there. The battle lasted only a few minutes, but the surrounding buildings were completely destroyed. The police didn't work in the past, and they were directly torn into pieces. A bunch of debris... the live news this morning nearly made me spit it out."

"I watched it too, it's just crazy!"

"It's strange, is there any connection between these two things?"

"Let's just pray that this is a coincidence. If it's not a coincidence... it will probably turn into a catastrophe, and we civilians will suffer accordingly!"

After all, these students are preparatory talents for the journalism major. They are good at reasoning when analyzing emergencies, and quickly connected the two big news that happened last night. Considering the possibility of the situation getting worse, everyone is a little worried about the city. The future of the classroom - the atmosphere in the classroom is also changing rapidly, from relaxed and lively to gloomy and depressing

Seeing the atmosphere in the classroom sinking, the playboy Andy jumped onto the podium surrounded by a group of younger brothers in order to attract attention; he coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention, and then he said loudly:

"Stop thinking about it, you civilians actually don't understand anything. You can only know what the higher-ups want you to know. Obviously, the higher-ups don't want you to know too much about these two terrorist attacks. But Andy I am different, young master, I am willing to let you know the truth!"

After saying this, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Seeing all the students looking at him expectantly, Andy's vanity was unprecedentedly inflated, and he said in a ecstasy, "What is the actual situation? Let's analyze it from the surrounding land prices... Do you have a lot of money?" Have you ever cared about the housing prices and land prices in surrounding cities?"

Obviously, this kind of thing is too early for the students, and everyone shook their heads.

"Let me tell you! Just a few months ago, except for the Crystal City, housing prices and land prices in surrounding cities have been rising! Especially in the Golden City, which is similar in size to the Crystal City, housing prices and land prices have skyrocketed by almost one-third [-]. In our case, house prices and land prices are depreciating... even investment and infrastructure tend to stagnate..."

Andy's expression became more and more serious, and he said very seriously:

"For this phenomenon, my family finds it very strange and thinks it is extremely abnormal. Combined with what happened in the past two days, I suspect...our city is being abandoned!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, all the students burst into laughter, and the classroom was filled with a lively atmosphere.Even Andy's younger brothers didn't believe him, so Mimi covered her mouth and snickered, obviously feeling that this playboy was making empty shots again.

When the news was released, Andy was going to accept everyone's admiration and reverence, but what he received was a roar of laughter; the huge contrast made him feel a little bit uneasy, and immediately roared out of embarrassment:

"Hey, hey! Don't laugh, I'm serious!"

"Master Andy, your imagination is too rich, right?"

A boy near the podium stopped laughing, wiped the tears from his eyes with his hands, and gasped, "I really can't think of why this city was abandoned... Besides, even if you want to abandon this city, you still have to give up." Move us local residents away! What is it to engage in terrorist attacks?"

"How much will it cost to move so many people?"

Andy blushed angrily, glared at the boy, and said angrily: "Capital operation is about getting the most profit at the least cost. Rather than spending money to get you out of the house and concocting two disasters, let you I don’t know how much money I’ll save if I take the initiative to leave!”

"Okay, okay! You're right."

The boy nodded first, then showed a teasing expression, and continued to ask:

"But why is the government telling us to fuck off? Is there a reason?"

"I'm just guessing too! Do you understand the guessing!? I need to analyze the specific situation further... All in all, I'm not optimistic about the future of Crystal City!"

After struggling to finish these words, Master Andy jumped off the podium in disgrace, and rushed out of the classroom without looking back; he planned to find a place to calm down and soothe his wounded soul.

……

But in the corner of the back row of the classroom, Lilith looked at Andy who ran out desperately, but she showed a thoughtful expression.

When participating in the war of time and space, she also considered similar things, and she didn't know why Sirock set the battlefield in Crystal City.Thinking about Andy's words... the government is likely to seek some kind of benefit through the battle of time and space.

"Did you listen to what that playboy said?" Ivan asked in a voice that only she could hear.

"of course."

"He was right. My mechanical ants discovered a super-large-scale Podir ore under the Crystal City. It is an important material for the synthesis of Shenyuan metal, and the price is a hundred times higher than gold... If you don't drive you away, just would hamper exploration and mining."

"..."

Lilith covered her mouth, her face turned red, and she tried her best not to scream.

After a while, while everyone was laughing at Andy, she asked in an almost broken voice:

"Is the source reliable?"

"I'm [-] percent sure."

Yiwen turned on the phone screen for her, connected to the detection field of view of the mechanical ants, and said with a sneer: "They want to eat it all for themselves, and they don't plan to leave any soup for you!"

"God, what should I do?"

Lilith stared at the phone screen, trembling with excitement, and asked in disbelief.

"Scraping the land! The war of time and space in the future will become more and more fierce, and the land price here will also become cheaper and cheaper. You just need to follow my instructions and go to a specific area to buy real estate, and you will definitely make a fortune in the future!"

"But I have no money!" The girl wanted to cry but had no tears.

"I have." Ivan looked at Lilith, whose eyes were blushing anxiously, and smiled meaningfully.

"How much money do you have?" Lilith asked nervously.
