Chapter 97: The Jing family’s win over
As the giant city entered level one combat readiness, the atmosphere in the city was solemn.
All members of the active city defense army were assembled, veterans were recalled to join the army, and a large number of scavengers were incorporated into the militia.
The border guards, which were rarely seen in the past, appeared in full force on the high walls of the giant city.
The major factories in the Lava Mining City were directly converted into military factories, fully engaged in the production of ammunition, and continuously sent to Border City No. 3.
Official officials have also made various preparations for possible disaster fog.
We even took out various dangerous taboo items.
Among them, the one most likely to prevent the mist is the Class B taboo Hunyuan Banner.
It is a flag composed of three independent flags that can divide the space. If the disaster fog is trapped in it, it may be able to block the spread of the disaster fog.
Of course, as a forbidden object, the price to pay for using it is equally terrible.
Once activated, it will cause natural disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, and sandstorms around the Hunyuan Banner!
This is also the reason why it is rated as Class B.
However, compared to the invasion of mist, these natural disasters are actually tolerable.
The official idea is that as long as the disaster fog can be detected in advance, the official will use the Hunyuan Banner to lock down the disaster fog!
Then the next step is easy.
Wait for the strong men from all the big cities to arrive, then go in and beat him!
Kill the mist master and conquer the mist No. 71!
The idea is very beautiful.
However, three days after receiving the news, officials still found no trace of Disaster No. 71.
On the contrary, the investigation results of the Doomsday Forest appeared first.
Ye Bushou, who took the risk to break through the beast tide and went deep into the restricted area, was surprised to find that a huge area in the Doomsday Forest was all missing.
Yes, missing!
The disaster zone is actually much larger than what is physically observed. From the outside, there seems to be only a mysterious forest, but the internal space is dozens of times larger.
There are many extraordinary creatures in each area, and each area has its own ecological chain.
However, this time, two of the areas, as well as various extraordinary creatures above, and even trees, flowers and plants, have disappeared. The whole area felt like it had been plowed, and there was total silence!
This makes Jucheng a little uneasy. The target of disaster fog No. 71 is somewhat broad.
In the past, disasters and fogs only swallowed humans or other intelligent species, sometimes including extraordinary creatures. But it has never devoured flowers, plants and trees.
Nowadays, Disaster Fog No. 71 is like a hungry ghost, devouring all the creatures above.
This change made the officials vigilant.
But in the vast wilderness, the night warriors of the three giant cities were on guard back and forth non-stop, but no trace of the disaster fog was found.
However, this can save a lot of time and transfer more people.
In the past three days, Border City No. 3 has requisitioned various caravans and dispatched a large number of troops to escort civilians to the lava mining city.
But only about one million people were evacuated, while the number of people who needed to be evacuated in Border City No. 3 was as high as eight million, and many people were unwilling to cooperate.
It can be foreseen that it will take quite a long time to transfer everything.
The later the disaster fog appears, the better it will be.
On the roof of a certain house, Li Yelai, who was in special combat uniform, was sitting, looking down at the flow of people and convoys rushing towards the entrance and exit of the giant city, praying in his heart that the disaster would be better delayed.
Each handler has been tasked with escorting people or guarding the streets.
Li Yelai is the latter.
Beside him, Cheese, who was also wearing a special combat uniform, handed him a cup of coffee and said: "The milk tea shop is closed. Let's just drink this to warm up."
"Okay, Thank you." Li Yelai took the cup and took a sip, his face distorted.
Cheese is obviously cursed because she is addicted to sugar, but she doesn't like desserts herself. Instead, I like to drink black coffee.
Just now, she caught Starfire, who was also guarding the streets, and asked him to help use his ability to make a pot of coffee.
But Li Yelai really couldn't drink this taste and couldn't taste it.
Seeing Li Yelai's grimace, Cheese's beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of smiles.
Immediately, he took out a few pieces of candy from his pocket and threw them into Li Yelai's cup.
This makes the bitter taste of coffee better.
Li Yelai asked while drinking coffee: "Uncle, have they evacuated?"
"We have to give priority to evacuating children and students. Uncle, they have to evacuate tomorrow." Cheese He was also drinking coffee from a cup and asked: "Where is your sister? How should she evacuate? Let my uncle find her a car that can't see the outside world?"
"No, I It's already been arranged." Li Yelai responded. Due to the high level of confidentiality of the Absolute Spirit, he did not reveal her existence.
"That's good." Cheese nodded, and Li Yelai looked at the crowd below silently.
At this time, an unexpected visitor arrived.
A figure appeared on the rooftop of the building next to Li Yelai. It was Jing Lin.
After seeing Li Yelai and Cheese, he smiled.
Immediately used Air Step and came to the two people.
“It’s been a long time, you two.” Jing Lin showed a friendly smile and said, “I finally found you.”
“I thought the young masters of the aristocratic family had already evacuated the giant city. "It's over." Cheese glanced at Jing Lin and said.
Although the authorities are evacuating the people, those capable wealthy businessmen have already left the giant city.
They do not need official protection and can hire enough force to reach the lava mining city safely.
As a family of psychics, the Jing family should be like this.
It is said that the Jing family expeditionary force, which was originally going to approach Border City No. 3, also left Border City No. 1 and settled in the wilderness.
Unexpectedly, Jing Lin was still in the giant city and found Li Yelai and Cheese.
"I know more about this matter. I think the giant city should be safe at the moment. There is no rush." Jing Lin smiled and said: "Miss Cheese, can I chat with Ye Jiang alone for a while? ? It won’t take a lot of time.”
Cheese raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Yelai, who was a little surprised, but nodded. Seeing this, Cheese left the rooftop, leaving the place to the two of them.
"What do you want from me?" Li Yelai asked straight to the point: "I don't seem to have any contact with the Yao Qingjing family, right? You are not here to make me pay, are you? ? "
"Hahaha, you are joking. Maybe you know, right? The reason for the evacuation of the people in the giant city is not because of the beast tide, but something more dangerous." Jing Lin said.
That’s right, after all, Jing Lin is very likely to be the chosen one of Ark.
Maybe I heard the news right next to me.
So, Li Yelai responded: "Colleagues do have some speculations that what Jucheng must face now may not just be a tide of beasts. It may be a more dangerous disaster."
Although the official told the public that they were defending against a beast tide, they did not deliberately hide the truth from the handlers.
Some of the handlers were vaguely aware that what they were facing this time might be a restricted area or disaster fog.
"Yes, the truth is that a relatively special fog will invade a certain border city. The beast tide in the Doomsday Forest is actually caused by the fog No. 71." Jing Lin said. The truth came out, and at the same time, he carefully observed Li Yelai's expression.
Li Yelai had known this information for a long time, but he still pretended to be stunned, and then continued to say: "I see!"
"It seems that you are better than me. He's even braver than he imagined."
Jing Lin didn't see the fear in Li Yelai's expression, and couldn't help but admire: "The family members I brought with me were eager to immediately after hearing the news. Escape from the giant city. You are much braver than them."
"It's different." Li Yelai responded: "I am the handler of the Disaster Management Department."
"Very good. ." Jing Lin looked at Li Yelai with eyes filled with approval.
"Then you came here just to tell me the news?" Li Yelai asked. He really didn't know the purpose of Jing Lin's visit.
To reveal the truth about the disaster? Everything the officials need to know is already known.
"No, I came here specifically for you." Jing Lin looked at Li Yelai and said, "How dangerous the mist is. If the worst happens, our Jing family can protect you, your family and friends. Leave the giant city without the threat of disaster.”
"Are you planning to let me run away?" Li Yelai frowned.
“The fog is too dangerous, and I just pointed out a path for you to choose.” Jing Lin whispered: “Your ability is so special, if you die in this fog, It’s also a loss for mankind.”
He no longer concealed his intention to win over, but continued to speak: “As long as you nod, our Jing family can now escort you and your family and friends out of the giant city. ! Moreover, you will not suffer any punishment! "
"Like the beautiful Miss Cheese, she is so sweet and charming. You can't bear to let her face the disaster. Are you dying?"
"I also have a sister, so our thoughts should be the same. We don't want our sister to suffer any danger."
< br>"As long as you nod, your sister will be perfectly protected! Instead of waiting for evacuation in the giant city!"
"And, you don't know, right? Your specialness has been taken care of by someone. A mysterious group learned that many of them are very interested in your abilities. Moreover, there is one from that group in Border City No. 3. organization!”
“And our Jing family has eight enlightenment psychics! No matter what force it is, we have to consider whether we want to go to war with the Jing family!”
“We Yao! The Qingjing family can protect you better!"
Jing Lin looked at Li Yelai: "Think about it."
"Can I understand that you are trying to win over me?" Li Yelai asked with a smile.
“That’s right.” Jing Lin nodded: “Now, I won’t hide it anymore. After we learned about your special ability from that group, we started to think about wooing you. In my opinion Come on, this is a win-win choice. You can get the Jing family's resources safely, and we can get a psychic with special abilities."
" The conditions you gave are very tempting." Li Yelai nodded: "If I agree, how many people can you protect?"
Jing Lin felt happy and said with a smile: "Your friends, and Your friends' families can be taken away. For example, if she is willing to go with you, we can also protect her other friends."
"Very good. But I have many friends." Li Yelai smiled.
“How many are there?” Jing Lin chuckled. Although the Jing family’s large army is still in the wilderness, its strength cannot be underestimated. There are a lot of psykers sitting around. It's still a waste of time to protect a group of people.
"There are still more than eight million at present." Li Ye looked at the flow of people below and said.
More than eight million? Are there any remaining soldiers and civilians from the giant city who have not yet evacuated?
Jing Lin was silent, he naturally understood what Li Yelai meant.
Then he sighed with regret: "That's such a pity, such a pity."
"I also feel very sorry for you Yao Qingjing family." Li Yelai also sighed.
“Feel sorry for us?” Jing Lin raised his eyebrows: “What do you mean?”
“The founders of your family of psykers are the heroes of this world, your ancestors They brought mysterious knowledge out of the mist, helped build the giant city, and resisted the disaster. "Li Yelai whispered: "What an honor and achievement, it is admirable and awe-inspiring."
Jing Lin. Nodding, this is indeed the achievement of the family, no one can deny it.
The current status of the family is indeed inseparable from the hard work of the ancestors.
“Now, it’s your generation. Faced with disaster again, you not only choose to escape, but also let others become deserters.” Li Yelai shook his head: “After you became heroes, you are no longer brave. This is Isn't that regretful enough? "
Jing Lin shook his head: "You are sharp-tongued, but this kind of words are of no use to me, and we, the Jing family, are not cowards. You, the No. 3 Border Town Press. The restricted area. Our Jing family is also suppressing the restricted area. This time is different. We have no obligation. "
"If you regret it, you can come to me at any time. . I'm at the manor."
Afterwards, Jing Lin jumped off the rooftop, performed an air step, and quickly disappeared from Li Yelai's sight.
Li Yelai looked at the direction he was going away and breathed out slowly.
In the face of disaster, it would be a lie to say that you are not afraid.
But fear and escape are two different things.
He is the handler of disaster handlers and has this responsibility.
Moreover, he also has the biggest trump card.
If the time comes, disaster really comes to Border City No. 3.
Then he will face the mist master and let him see the strength of Mr. Shadow!
Since one transaction is equivalent to saving lives, then saving more lives at one time will be a more cost-effective choice.
"Don't you regret it?" Cheese's voice came from behind Li Yelai: "It's not common for a family of psykers to win over you. With unimaginable resources and inheritance, you don't even have to work hard to complete the task. Get those resources."
"It's more suitable for me to use the merit points." Li Yelai looked back at Cheese and asked, "By the way, where did you start eavesdropping?" br>
“From ‘that beautiful Miss Cheese, she is so sweet and charming’.” Cheese responded with a smile, eyes flashing: “Look at how sweet people’s mouths are. Learn how to be sweet.” ! ”
"Smelly and shameless!" Li Yelai complained.
