The Death Canyon had completely changed its appearance.
Now.
No one would be able to recognize that this canyon was the original Death Canyon. In the original Death Canyon, there were many cliffs, pillars, and rocks protruding from the bottom of the canyon. There were winged snakes, flying lizards, and all kinds of flying underground creatures living on them.
But now, all of that had completely disappeared.
All the protruding rocks in the canyon had been razed to the ground.
Countless insect corpses and their body parts were scattered all over the bottom of the canyon.
These were only a small part of the corpses that fell from the sky. Most of the insect corpses were blown into powder or burned into ashes.
Because of the bombing, the rising mud and smoke covered the entire sky. If it wasn't for the rainstorm that came in time, it would have taken at least half a month to restore the environment here. However, the rainstorm also posed a great obstacle to the disaster relief. The rescue workers had to brave the muddy rain and rescue the survivors in the ruins.
The countries that originally planned to question the 'bald eagle' were all silent now.
No one expected this.
The bombing would bring about such a result.
One explosion caused two terrifying earthquakes.
Especially the last earthquake, it was more than ten times more powerful than the first earthquake.
Eric Jr. and Josiah were such strong people, but when they escaped from the collapsed base and looked at the ruins around them, they felt like crying but had no tears. All of this was caused by humans. If they didn't want to destroy the underground creatures and the insects that had been surrounded by the high walls in the Death Canyon, none of this would have happened!
Pretentious humans.
They thought they were the masters of all things.
They used the power of technology without caring about the consequences, released a "technological monster" that humans couldn't control, and then destroyed their homes.
This kind of stupid thing was done by the elites. At first, they said it was to protect their homes. But the result? It was the exact opposite. The humans who thought they could control everything destroyed their homes with their own hands.
Of course.
This might be God's punishment.
"Save people. Put down everything and focus on saving people as much as possible!" Josiah knew that there was no point in saying anything. It was a fact that had already happened and could not be undone. Instead of continuing to be angry and blaming his companions who had personally destroyed his home, it was better to bury his head and do something meaningful, such as saving a few more lives that were on the verge of death.
"Josiah, we should have stopped them. I really regret it!" Eric Jr. was very regretful. Why didn't he persist to the end?
"People always learn to reflect after they fail." Josiah also felt bitterness in his mouth.
"Let's hope so …" Eric Jr., on the other hand, believed that this was just the beginning.
The bald eagle's rescue behavior was very efficient.
In fact …
Apart from the base, there weren't many residents around.
Not counting the soldiers of the base and the bald eagle, the victims were mostly the ordinary people who came to watch the show and the reporters from various countries who were assigned to film the bombing process. It turned out that the high walls surrounding Death Canyon had collapsed. Although many people had taken sufficient precautions, some of them were still buried under the ground along with the collapsed walls. There were also some lucky people whose high walls did not collapse. Except for the shock wave and earthquake, they were not injured at all.
There were even reporters who continued to broadcast the whole process after the bombing, delivering the latest news to people all over the world.
"Many of our companions were injured, but I was one of the luckier ones. I was rescuing my companions just now. Many people were injured, and I had nothing in my hands. Food, medicine, I had nothing. I was very desperate. Fortunately, the rescue staff arrived. They were more professional, so I returned to my work. Oh my god, I am really tired today. I saved a total of five people. Except for one I know, the other four are actually strangers. I am very tired, and I am still panting, but I am very happy, and my heart is very touched! Yes, I have a little injury on my body, but it doesn't matter. I can continue to work, just like the camera that was lucky enough not to be damaged. Yes, it can also continue to work. Great, what reason do I have not to send the latest news back to you? Dear audience, now it is Joseph's turn to broadcast for you. The loyal Joseph will work for you as always … "Some reporters were talking to the camera on their companions' shoulders, and the cameraman who was carrying the camera seized the time to take pictures of the surrounding environment.
"Should we stop them?" Some soldiers thought that with these reporters, they might ruin things. At least the real side of the war would be broadcasted.
"Save the people first! Besides, can we stop them? "Eric Jr., who had just arrived to control the situation, waved his hand.
It was already chaotic enough. If they didn't save the people, they would stop the filming.
Then the image of the 'bald eagle' would really collapse in front of the whole world.
In the sky.
Heavy rain poured down.
The senior judge who had just escaped from the base also came to the high wall that looked like a ruin.
When he looked at the Death Canyon at this moment through the rain, his mouth opened so wide that a crocodile frog could be stuffed in it.
The Death Canyon had disappeared.
The wound on the ground had changed from a canyon formed by the collapse to a super large canyon.
The total length of the original Death Canyon was only 20 kilometers, and part of it extended to Brother Mo Qian. Now this super large canyon was several times larger than it. The most conservative estimate was that it was 100 kilometers long.
What was serious was …
There were countless cracks in this big canyon, which radiated outwards.
Looking down from high in the sky, one would find that its shape was like a dragonfly in the underground, and the dense cracks were its limbs. These cracks were far beyond the original range of the high wall, and some were already close to human settlements. What was even more frightening was that there were several giant cracks extending straight to the edge of the coast.
Unless there was a miracle, the insects in the Death Canyon that couldn't be killed by explosions would definitely be able to escape into the sea.
"I'm very sorry that such an accident happened, Eric Jr.. But please believe me, I really didn't know the consequences would be like this. We consulted countless experts and revised our plan no less than ten times. In the deduction, our calculation result was that it was impossible for an earthquake to happen. This was an accident, and I really didn't know it would be so serious. Perhaps you are very angry, Eric Jr.., but I don't know what else I can say … "The senior of the trial team was certainly not a moron. His purpose was to make the underground creatures disappear, to turn the tables in the secret battle with Lin Dong, and to frighten the underlings who intended to leave the 'bald eagle' and approach China.
"This is not an accident!" Eric Jr. took a deep breath. "I understand what you want to say. But what's the use of getting an explanation? Can it bring those dead people back to life? Can it make this mistake go back to square one? Can it make us choose again? The opinions of the experts were worth referring to. After all, they were experts, but they were not the authority on the Death Canyon. The situation here was completely different from other places! There were countless insects living here, and they could dig holes. They had already dug through the Death Canyon. Even the geology that the experts used to talk about had unknowingly formed a completely different landform after countless years of change. All of these, we are not as authoritative as Mr. Wood. His warning was right! You know, before we started the bombing, he sent me a message. He said that if the bombing was too powerful, the Death Canyon might continue to collapse. He told us to pay attention to protecting the people on the high walls … He was right, but because he was our enemy, we knew that he was right, but we couldn't adopt his correct advice. This is our tragedy! "
"Eric Jr.., we have to look forward! Everything will pass, and the Death Canyon incident will become a part of history that we will remember. We have paid a huge price to make these hateful insects disappear. But please believe me, all of this is worth it. If we don't do anything and let the insects continue to evolve, one day, we will have to pay a higher price with more lives! " Another military leader thought that the incident had already happened. Although the consequences were serious, it was not a complete failure since they could completely eliminate the insects.
"Do you really think the insects are all dead?" Eric Jr. shook his head. "I really hope that you are right!"
"Please believe me, I personally presided over this plan, and I have absolute confidence! I can guarantee that within the explosion radius of the Death Canyon, not a single life will survive! Maybe in the outermost area, where the bombing did not reach, there might still be some insects struggling at death's door. As long as we send out specialized teams to clear them out one by one, the era of the insects in the Death Canyon will become a thing of the past. This is still the most pessimistic estimate. According to our deductions, there won't be any insects in the Death Canyon, no matter how big or small it is, whether it is a giant snake that is tens of meters long or a small flea! "The military leader had absolute confidence.
"Mr. Bard, I really hope that you are right … but I am really afraid that before long, there will be soldiers reporting the bad news of a large number of insects to us! I am so afraid of this news! "After saying that, Eric Jr. did not give the other party any chance to refute and directly turned to leave.
"Maybe we really did something wrong!" The higher-ups of the judicial team sighed.
"But what has already happened, we can only accept it! Also, I am really confident, after all, there were a total of 100 'Destroyers'! I admit that the number we released was a little too much, maybe only one-tenth, and it would have been enough to complete all the missions! If that was the case, there might not have been this damn earthquake! But the insects really can't be revived, they have long been turned into billions of pieces by the power of the bombing! " The military leader felt that the consequences were not what everyone hoped for, but the mission to clear out the insects was indeed completed.
His confidence.
Three hours later, he was challenged.
This was because Eric Jr.'s subordinates found a large amount of seawater in a crack closest to the coast.
Eric Jr. took this very seriously, and personally led people there, hoping to intercept the insects before they could escape to the sea.
But the reality made Eric Jr. very desperate. Before he could reach the crack, his subordinates were horrified to find a large number of winged snakes on the coast … When Eric Jr. arrived, what he saw was not winged snakes, but a giant snake that was said to have been blown into pieces. It was 100 meters long, and its body was even larger than before, and its abdomen was twice as big.
Seeing it, even a blind person knew that this terrifying underground monster was about to become a mother.
"Quick, apply to the higher-ups to immediately dispatch a submarine. We have to completely eliminate it while it is still offshore!" After seeing the giant snake, the military leader was shocked and exasperated, and wanted to continue using brute force to eliminate it.
"I don't know how many you can eliminate …" Eric Jr. really wanted to cry, but no tears came out. They had painstakingly trapped the insects in Death Canyon. It was originally not very safe, but it was barely passable. After all, the insects only shared a little sunlight, so they did not ask for much. But now that the explosion had destroyed Death Canyon, the insects that were originally trapped here were completely freed, and they entered the sea. As he spoke in despair, tens of thousands of winged snakes spread their wings and flew up, like dark clouds, straight into the distance of the sea.
On the surface of the sea, countless insects and beasts were swimming freely.
They believed that there were more of their companions at the bottom of the sea.
When the giant snake slowly sank into the sea.
It slowly dived into the deep sea.
Everyone realized that from now on, there was no longer any power that could stop these insects that had regained their freedom …
