Chapter 35 Fireworks
Several dialog boxes popped up at the same time, almost blocking Zhou Zhengde's communicator.
There is no other way. Precision instruments are given priority to the United Defense Forces. In fact, such communicators should not appear in Midtown.
[My mother is forever young: Something happened to Wenying. Her pulse disappeared. The life detection chip sent out the final location on the 49th floor of the lower city, but the area could not be determined. 】
[An unimportant member of the law enforcement team in the upper city: psykers rioted in the Thirteen Institutes! More than thirty psykers rushed out of the Thirteenth building, and they rushed to the elevator! team leader! Damn it! All the psychics in Fortress 76 ran out! There are thirty-eight! 】
[Goddess Wei Na (front): The purge troops on the 45th floor suddenly started moving! They seemed to have received the order and started to move down! I'll ask right away! 】
Zhou Zhengde's head buzzed and he almost exploded.
What happened down there?
Just because Anxi died, all the psykers stationed in Fortress 76 were dispatched? Are there even a few C-class psykers here?
Of course Zhou Zhengde couldn't see that a certain biology minister who saw his mother's pulse signal suddenly disappearing was roaring crazily in the office at the moment.
Zhou Zhengde thought for a moment and immediately began to reply.
To ex-girlfriend Wei Na: [Notify Mu Liang immediately to leave the 49th floor! The psykers stationed in our fortress are out in force! 】
To the former team members: [Hide yourself and delete the communication records in the server. Thank you. 】
To the lady minister: [Why did the class sister go to the 49th floor? 】
Waited for ten seconds.
[An unimportant member of the law enforcement team in the upper city: Don’t worry about me! Boss! Everyone is waiting for you to come back! Hidden. 】
[My mother is forever young: She just told me that she was going to the forty-fifth floor to supervise and take over the facilities of the Black Fire Gang later. You can no longer let your psykers destroy those expensive facilities. 】
[Goddess Wei Na (front): The captain here said that the order was issued by the headquarters in the upper city. The Black Fire Gang started a fierce exchange of fire half an hour ago. There were large-scale explosions and thirteen psykers were killed. 】
[Goddess Wei Na (front): I am going down with the Silver Party people and have already tried to contact him. Are you sure the receiver on his helmet will not be damaged due to the battle? There has been no reply. 】
Zhou Zhengde immediately replied to Wei Na: [The receiver is between his eyebrows. If it is damaged there, he will probably not survive. 】
Zhou Zhengde thought for a while and replied to his minister mother:
[Mother, I know you have to make plans for your faction and political stance, but I still think this matter is a bit excessive. 】
After a while, two messages popped up again.
[My mother is forever young: I know what you are disgusted with, kid, but you have to consider, if we can control the functional modules of the Black Fire Gang in our hands, can we effectively supervise what these gangs are doing? 】
[My mother is forever young: Justice that does not take into account the whole is not real justice. Remember your grandfather's words: What is fighting the blade beast is a fortress. Hundreds of thousands of humans are a whole. For the survival of the whole, we can sacrifice some individuals. 】
Zhou Zhengde replied with a dark face:
[Me: But grandpa also said that the whole is composed of each individual. If you don’t pay attention to each individual, the whole will soon fall apart. 】
[My mother is forever young: So this requires a balance. The ecology of the fortress is the best balance at present. The upper, middle and lower cities each perform their respective duties. 】
[Zhou Zhengde: But we didn’t give the people in Zhongcheng and Lower City enough choices! The basic human rights of the people in Xiacheng cannot be protected! 】
[My mother is forever young: I am the Minister of the Interior and have access to all the data inside the fortress. I can answer your question... We can't afford to feed you at all. 】
[Zhou Zhengde: Then why do you want so many people to breed in the lower city? 】
[My mother will always be young: because the human individual itself is a resource. Including you and me, we must all sacrifice for the sake of the clan when necessary. There is a self-destruct chip installed in my neck to prevent the mimic blade beast from stealing the fortress data. 】
Zhou Zhengde threw the communicator on the table, raised his hand to cover his eyebrows, and leaned back in the chair.
Feeling of powerlessness.
Every conversation he had with his mother was filled with this feeling of powerlessness.
However, he had no way to convince his mother. He could only let himself adhere to the principles in political textbooks.
Although Zhou Zhengde is currently sitting in the office of the Public Security Bureau on the thirteenth floor.
But he seemed to have heard it;
heard the radio sound of the fortress's cleaning troops advancing.
…
"Zi... All squadrons, the combat plan has been distributed to the command system of each team. The target is to wipe out the Black Fire Gang and kill all the militants and the living and mechanical entities that attack us. Each squadron leader reports."
"receive."
"receive."
"Roger, Commander! The fast descent channel has been opened!"
"All squadrons, prepare for rappelling according to number... Tell these warrior cubs not to look at the scenery of the lower city! This is another world in the fortress, just like, we will be disgusted if we see the anatomy of human internal organs, here is Guts of the Fortress.”
"Received, the drone swarm has been activated, and the mechanical vanguard has been activated."
"Copy that, our troops will be the first to descend quickly."
"receive."
"Our unit is ready and will start rappelling."
"Flight support forces seize air superiority and don't let our warriors sacrifice themselves for internal operations."
"We have begun to seize air superiority."
Sudden.
"Zi... Mu Liang? Mu Liang, can you hear me? Escape quickly! The purge troops are coming! They will kill all the militants in the designated area, or you can throw away the weapons first! I am bringing the hired troops here The troops are on their way to support you! Mu Liang! You have already killed a D-class psyker and two to three hundred militants. You can stop fighting later! Brutal regular army! Mu Liang! "
"Zi... Doctor Wei Na, this is the full-frequency command system. You are connected to the wrong channel. The communication unit of your helmet seems to be part of our equipment."
"Uh, sorry! Huh? Is that my ex-ex-ex-boyfriend?"
Wei Na, who was riding a motorcycle on the winding downward highway, immediately made up for it:
"I'm actually reminding you that there is one of our people below. Because he can't stand what the gangsters are doing, he is... exterminating demons and defending the law."
Commander: "Continue raping, don't chat in the command channel! All captains switch to 99230! Wei Na! Let your new boyfriend leave that area quickly, if he doesn't want to bear my jealousy!"
"Okay, okay, come on."
On the motorcycle, behind the helmet, Wei Na's face turned red visibly.
It wasn't because she was shy, she hadn't had this girly mood for many years.
I'm just ashamed of my amateurishness.
She continued to call Mu Liang on the channel, and subconsciously looked at the middle of the 47th floor where she was on the road where she had to slow down.
There was a huge noise.
Around her, gang members shouted: "Look!"
"Trough! It's cracked!"
"Fortress regular army! It's been more than twenty years! See you again! The purge troops...are the purge troops! Woohoo!"
"The land in the middle can be opened? No wonder we are not allowed to touch it!"
In the middle of the forty-sixth, forty-seventh, and forty-eighth floors, corresponding to the central elevator shaft above the forty-fifth floor, cracks appeared simultaneously. The giant fan blades were misaligned up and down, slowly rotating, and finally shrunk by twenty meters. diameter within a circular frame.
A 'patio' connecting vertically up and down has already appeared.
At the edge of the patio, more than a dozen high-strength material ropes fell quickly.
Accompanied by a violent buzzing sound, a swarm of drones appeared in the center. Each drone was spherical in shape and equipped with short-barreled machine guns, micro-missiles and other firepower units. Followed closely were sixteen all-terrain combat robots more than three meters high, with guns and cannon barrels inserted all over their bodies, and they were falling vertically along the ropes.
Soldiers wearing camouflage combat uniforms, tactical helmets, and tactical backpacks descended at a constant speed with the help of a rope assist system.
Swarms of drones, combat robots, heavily armed soldiers...
The eyes of the gangsters suddenly became extremely clear.
Wei Na couldn't help but cursed and shouted hurriedly: "Mu Liang! Mu Liang! Mu Liang, can you hear me! Isn't this contact system easy to use?"
Perhaps it was the reason why an up and down passage was opened in the middle.
"Zi...Doctor Wei Na? Is that you?"
"This is the communication system that comes with the helmet! Mu Liang, run! Leave the range of the Black Fire Gang! The further away from the Black Fire Gang, the better!"
Wei Na shouted quickly:
"The purge troops are suddenly dispatched! They won't know whether you are a gangster or not. If you have weapons and dare to resist, you will be shot! Leave quickly!"
"I've seen it, a lot of drones are coming towards me," Wang Jixuan's voice carried a hint of wind, "Help me contact the people at Wanlijin and ask Captain Zhou to do it. I owe Captain Zhou one more favor. I A dozen children need to be taken away there.”
"More than a dozen?" Wei Na scolded, "So you have so many illegitimate children! Then you still pretend to be innocent with me!"
"These are some orphans. I think Zhongcheng should be able to give them some help."
Wang Jixuan warned:
"Remember, contact Wanlijin first, don't get yourself into trouble just to save people.
"I can evacuate here, and I will blow up the escape routes of the Black Fire Gang's senior leaders later...I am now in their escape routes, installing some booby traps for them..."
"Okay, okay, you still don't like hearing what others say, I'll contact you right away! Who makes you the boss?"
Wei Na complained.
In the tunnel, Wang Jixuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Did Wei Na mean that he was headstrong?
He quickly dropped the miniature grenades wrapped with thin wires.
There was no more sound in the helmet.
He reluctantly looked at the big sniper in his hand that he would return later, disassembled it, slung it on his shoulders, and ran with all his strength.
A few minutes later.
fire?
Wang Jixuan's spiritual awareness suddenly noticed that there was a billowing wave of fire ahead.
He casually made a magic formula, put his sword finger in front of his forehead, and recited:
"The sky is round and the earth is round, the laws are nine chapters, the golden light appears quickly, protect my true body!"
A light golden film appeared around him.
Wang Jixuan raised his hand and slapped the edge of the corridor while he was galloping. As if he were flying, he rushed out along the sloping steps in front of him and crashed into a sea of fire.
Wang Jixuan was stunned for a moment.
The entire cabin was in flames.
He was about to rush to the second floor, but his steps suddenly stopped.
He didn't detect the breath of any living being.
The beam in the middle of the wooden house was about to fall.
Wang Jixuan jumped out of the window, rose and fell several times in a row, and stood firmly on the top of a greenhouse, looking around.
Thomas' car was also burning, and the smell of burning meat hung in the air.
A white shadow appeared in Wang Jixuan's sight.
On the bumpy cement road, the girl sat obediently next to a suitcase, her white dress like a lotus blooming in the dark night.
"Leaf...Leaf!"
Wang Jixuan jumped over, raised his hand, took off his helmet, and held it to his right hand.
Ye Zi, who was in a daze, looked up, his dull pupils were a little brighter, and he shouted excitedly: "Brother Tian!"
Wang Jixuan fell down, took two steps forward and then subconsciously paused, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Ye Zi smiled happily and opened her arms to welcome him. When he got closer, he found that Wang Jixuan's face was a little pale under the firelight, and he slowed down a little uneasily.
There was a little bit of invisible blood on her clean little face.
"Welcome home, Brother Tian! The cleaning is done. You came back to pick me up as expected. Ye Zi will also do housework diligently in the future!"
"Where are you, your brothers and sisters?"
Wang Jixuan's voice was trembling.
"They're gone." Ye Zi replied crisply.
"Where are your brothers and sisters!"
"They're gone!"
"What's gone! Answer me! What's gone!"
Wang Jixuan held the pistol in his right hand and pointed it at Ye Zi's forehead: "Tell me! What are you leaving! Where did the evil spirit in your body come from! What did you do, what did you do!"
"Brother Tian..."
boom!
A crater appeared at Ye Zi’s feet.
Wang Jixuan's breathing was a little disordered. His right hand and arm holding the pistol couldn't stop shaking, and he suddenly turned around and ran towards the darkness.
His pupils were slightly broken, and his heart was trembling.
"Brother Tian..."
Ye Zi's lips trembled, and he couldn't help but shed tears. He covered his face and slowly squatted down.
"Why don't we just go together... We can't take care of them if we leave here... Ye Zi has cleaned up for you, isn't Ye Zi enough... Brother Tian... don't you want Ye Zi anymore... Brother Tian... Come back..."
There was a loud roar from the burning handmade car in the distance.
The wooden house collapsed with a continuous crackling sound.
The girl's whimper gradually turned into a chuckle.
The fire became more intense.
