Chapter 169 This is a cage, but also a protection
The light blocking the magic city dissipated from top to bottom. Lin Qun and the others were at the bottom and needed to wait for a while, but the military drones had been upgraded first. , plunge into the vast world outside the magic city!
The Demon City General Director immediately activated the communication device, preparing to contact the human troops that may still exist outside to obtain information or conduct linkage.
"We have connected with the outside world, establish communication immediately, and call our brother troops."
Underground of the Sixth Prison Survivor Base.
This has been set up as a new command center, and Li Zheng is sitting here at the moment.
The command center is full of busy staff. They are nervous, excited, and a little uneasy. They don’t know what will happen next and what is waiting for them outside the city.
And the answer will be revealed soon.
The synchronized picture returned by the drone soon appeared on the central screen.
Not only that, Lin Qun was also at the scene and saw the drone footage through the simultaneous interpretation device.
That drone is the latest model of the military. It not only has reconnaissance functions, but also carries two missiles. It is the few remaining airpower of the human military in the Demon City after the final battle with the Barkatans. But its performance is excellent. Because of this, it was chosen to be sent out among the first batch.
However, when the blockade was lifted and the light curtain disappeared, the scene outside was different from what everyone imagined.
The picture returned by the drone is dark!
It was almost impossible to see anything clearly. There was none of the expected ruins or the human federation army that greeted them.
"Is this... any interference? It just jumped over the light screen?"
Lin Qun frowned.
Captain Chu also looked at the technical staff on one side.
The technician looked solemn and said: "No, this is what the scene looks like...this is..."
Lin Qun felt a hint of uneasiness in his heart.
He raised his head, walked out from the military line, and looked towards the sky.
The light curtain had dropped high enough at this time, almost to the edge of the field of vision, and at this time, there were already bursts of exclamations in the military line.
From the descending light curtain, what flows in is a vast expanse of darkness...
"Is that...fog?"
The gray-black fog, just like It's like a flood pouring in from the outside.
Looking out from here, outside the sealed Magic City area, there is darkness surging everywhere.
The gray-black mist was like a terrifying high wall, rising from the outside of the Demon City and reaching into the clouds.
Thousands of meters high. And the flow speed at the top is faster, like a bloody mouth, it must be sealed and closed above the magic city first.
Lin Qun stepped back step by step.
The light curtain has completely disappeared, and patches of fog are flowing in from the outside. Their flow speed is not very fast. Humans can avoid them at normal pace and just retreat, but this scene is still very strange. Horror.
The light curtain disappeared, like a dam releasing water, and all the wandering fog in the outside world poured in.
It was overwhelming, like a wall collapsing, but at a slow speed, allowing people to clearly see every flow process. As they retreated, they felt a strange and terrifying aura penetrating through it.
No one thought of this.
The Eastern District troops sent by the Magic City military retreated five hundred meters along the entire line before giving way to a certain distance.
“Based on the current speed of the fog, it will take at least twenty minutes to reach our current location. But it is not just our location. The entire Magic City area and the surrounding sea areas seem to be covered by these gray fogs at the moment. Black fog enveloped them, and they came from all directions. Preliminary analysis from the rear showed that it might only take a few days to submerge the Demon City. "
Captain Chu said: "Furthermore, our invincibility. The man-machine lost contact just now - it advanced three hundred meters in the fog and suddenly lost contact. We still don’t know what happened.
"The communication from the General Directorate was sent out, but no one responded. We cannot yet judge the extent of this gray-black fog...
" It is speculated above that this may be officially related to the global battlefield. On the day it was opened, it was related to the huge shadow that appeared over the Magic City..."
Captain Chu frowned.
This situation was somewhat unexpected. There was all fog outside the Magic City. He stretched out his hand No one could see anything.
But so far, the good news is that at least there are no monsters coming out of the fog.
This is not the best case scenario, nor is it the worst case scenario.
Lin Qun stood in front of the motorcade, also frowning.
Waiting for the analysis results and next plan.
In fact, at this time, the Demon City Commander was a little at a loss.
The person you want to contact cannot be contacted, and other civilized creatures cannot be seen...
The new rankings where information can be obtained have not been opened...
With the change of the sky and the flow of fog, the Magic City was completely shrouded in darkness early on. I don’t know what channel the news came from. Coming back, spreading among the survivors, there was a faint panic.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the survivors outside are a little panicked. There is even a saying that the Blue Star outside the Magic City has been destroyed. We are the last humans. Those outside are not fog at all, but It is a void after destruction. When they engulf the Demon City, it will be the end of all of us!”
The unknown brings fear.
Listening to this report, Li Zheng raised his head from his position, glanced at the person in front of him, and then turned to scan the staff in the command center. They are all looking at themselves.
At this time, these people said that it was impossible not to be frightened.
The blockade of the magic city has been lifted, but they still can't contact the outside world. They don't know what the specific situation is. Coupled with the strange fog and terrifying rumors...
Li Zheng was silent for a moment. , threw the latest fog analysis report in his hand on the table with a snap, which caused the entire underground base to fall silent. He stood up, looked around, and deliberately loudly said: "Nonsense, these rumors, Simply It's nonsense. Our report shows that this is Blue Star, the Magic City is the Magic City, and the outside is the suburbs of the Magic City. It's just that the fog has a special composition, there is some electromagnetic interference, and the coverage is relatively large. What's the point? Scary? The real swords and guns and the Bakatans we fought have made us run away. Can these fog trap us?
"Give an order to prepare the exploration team immediately to find out what's inside the fog." situation! ”
Li Zheng's words at this time had the power to stabilize people's hearts.
The content of the report passed from him to the front line of the Magic City border contained one more piece of information than what he said.
“This is probably a civilization reshaping the ecological environment of Blue Star?”
Lin Qun raised his head in shock.
"Yes, this is the above analysis result. In order not to cause panic, only a few people know it now." Captain Chu said, "Because our preliminary detection results show that these gray-black colors in the fog The particles are very small and contain unknown ingredients that blue stars do not have, so..."
It's not impossible.
The Bakatans can move in the atmospheric environment on Blue Star, but that does not mean that all civilizations can. In order to adapt to the Blue Star battlefield and better exert the combat power of their own civilization, it is very possible. of.
But Lin Qun understood the meaning behind this analysis.
If it is really transformed and is suitable for other contestants to breathe and survive as a civilization, it will not be suitable for humans. Once these fogs cover the magic city, it is very likely that they will all die from the change in the environment!
Lin Qun and Captain Chu looked at each other.
Captain Chu said with a complicated expression: "Maybe, we haven't even seen the enemy, so we will be forced to choose the plan to leave the magic city! Even if this environment has no impact on us humans, we have no means to dispel these fogs. In the end, I had no choice but to leave.”
When he said these words, there was helplessness and a touch of sadness.
They are the masters of Blue Star, but in this civilized war, they are not even contestants, they are just indigenous people. They can only watch others change their world and planet, and they can only be forced to Wandering.
The drone lost contact, and the reconnaissance team arranged by the military set off immediately.
At this time, the fog had spread to a distance of 500 meters, and Lin Qun and the others retreated 500 meters again.
The military's first exploration team arrived at this time, carrying a large amount of equipment and quickly entering the fog.
Behind is the second team of experts. After the first team clears the way, they will also enter immediately to collect samples of the deep fog and study the impact on the ecological environment of the fog-covered area.
Lin Qun and the others, real warriors, remained motionless, waiting for the results to be sent back from the front.
Li Jie stood on one side of Lin Qun and said, "Brother Lin, what kind of civilization did this happen?"
Lin Qun just shook his head at this.
They don't even know if the civilization that created this gray-black fog is living in these fogs at this moment.
The first team set off smoothly. After entering the fog, two "happy events" were confirmed.
First, the composition of the air in the mist is almost the same as the original air composition of Blue Star, except that the nitrogen content has increased, but it does not affect breathing. There was also a picture of the exploration team taking off their protective equipment and moving forward.
The visibility of the fog is fixed, about one to two meters.
Second, they advanced nearly one kilometer and crossed the border of the Magic City without being blocked or in danger.
So at this time, the second team of experts set off quickly.
These fogs will cover the entire Magic City within a few days, but there are more than three million people in the Magic City, plus a large amount of supplies. If you want to evacuate, it will take several days. The general guidance We can't afford to delay, we must quickly figure out the reality of the fog.
As the team deepened, the radio gradually became interfered with and blurred. It might take several minutes to send back a message, and the picture sent back was even more unclear.
After another half an hour, the mist continued to advance. Lin Qun and the others retreated another five hundred meters, but news came from the front.
It’s still the first team.
"Zila...we found the crashed drone, Zila...it...it seemed to have been torn apart by something, it was attacked..."
The voice stopped abruptly here. .
More than ten minutes passed.
The second team also suddenly lost contact.
Only a moment later, a person covered in blood stumbled out of the fog. She was a female expert in the field of environment and atmosphere. At this time, she shouted like a madman: "Save me! Save me, Live, they live - they are gone - they are all gone ”
Then, she fell on the edge of the fog with a thud, not knowing whether she was alive or dead.
Two exploration teams, nearly forty people, almost disappeared for more than half an hour without even a splash, and only one person came back!
And the distance they went deep into the fog was less than two kilometers!
Everyone was shocked and confused. Captain Chu on one side immediately sent someone to pick them up.
On the other hand, Li Xinghe swallowed hard and said: "Perhaps, the blockade of the Bakatan civilization is a cage for us in the Demon City, but it is also a protection."
