After billions of years of intense preparation, Maya, Ancient Egypt, Eastern Europe, and other forums had exposed and speculated several times. Then, two months ago, the official release of the trial version in advance, and more than a billion players participated in the "Resident Evil Level Trial" activity. We finally welcomed the day that everyone had been waiting for. "Cataclysm 2012: Nirvana of Civilization V2.0" was officially released on Earth. On the first day, the entire server was filled with seven billion users! Currently, the European dungeon "Tsunami Frenzy" and the Australian dungeon "Magma Rush" had achieved the first kill. The Asian region's official event "Crust Collision" had also entered a heated phase. The users who participated in this grand open beta all expressed —
This time, we were tricked by His Majesty.
Alright, the above is just nonsense. The following is the main text.
Excluding the two female police officers who were in good condition, there were a total of 37 refugees around us. Their conditions weren't that good.
Malnutrition, physical weakness, and physical exhaustion were all trivial matters. What was more important was that they didn't know when they would suddenly become dead, or the people around them would turn into monsters. Everyone was in a nervous state, and the extreme fear almost caused their nerves to collapse. For the past few days, if it wasn't for Nan Lixiang's gun, these mere 37 people would probably have collapsed without any external attacks.
Furthermore, a few of them had severe gastrointestinal problems due to not eating regularly for a long period of time. Their bodies were completely exhausted, but the strange thing was that they had food with them …
"These people suddenly thought that the food they ate carried the Dead Body Virus. In the end, they didn't dare to eat anything. They even tried to stop us from eating." Nan Lixiang shook her head. "If we didn't forcefully stuff food into their mouths, they would have starved to death. In fact, they would spit out the food every time …"
"Psychological problems?" I scratched my head. "It's a pity that the psychic girl is still going crazy in the other world. But it doesn't matter. At most, we can extract the brains of these paranoid people and soak them in the maintenance pod. They won't die anyway."
Everyone was shocked by what I said.
"Hey, did you guys hear that?" I poked the refugees who refused to eat. "Three hours later, we will extract your brains while you're still alive. That is, if you're still not willing to cooperate."
"You're really …" Poison Island Chestnut shook her head and sighed.
I chuckled. "I learned it from Liliana … Er, looks like you'll have to wait for a while before you can eat. They're here."
A sharp whistling sound that came from high up in the sky suddenly attracted everyone's attention. Everyone couldn't help but raise their heads to look in the direction of the sound. In the thick clouds, an orange-red light was quickly brightening.
"They moved quite fast, fifteen minutes in advance. Officer Nanli, please get ready to let these refugees board the boat."
"My surname is Nan, not Nan Li … Forget it," the mature policewoman muttered, but she still focused her attention on the word "boarding". "That's?"
"Spaceships, I said we have a lot of spaceships parked in space. We can't stay on this planet anymore. Let the survivors board the spaceships …"
Nan Li Xiang didn't hear the second half of what I said because the loud roar had covered all the surrounding sounds.
Wrapped in a large ball of flames, a spaceship that was a few kilometers long broke through the clouds high up in the sky, casting a huge shadow on the ground. It was one of the first batch of spaceships to enter the atmosphere, the Gemini Star New Eden Federation battlecruiser.
"God … I'm not dreaming, right?!" Although Nan Li Xiang had heard about spaceships from us more than once, when a "giant battleship" that was a few kilometers long really broke through the atmosphere and hovered above her head with a deafening roar, the shock was indescribable in a few words.
Even the refugees who were lying half-dead on the ground like walking corpses sat up in horror at this moment. Like dehydrated fish, they opened their mouths wide and looked up at the brilliant chrysanthemum of the Gemini Star that was spewing fire.
This scene was much more impressive than a 3D screen in a sci-fi movie. I dare to bet that no sci-fi master would be able to accurately imagine every single screw on a spaceship, but this spaceship was definitely the real deal.
"The Gemini Star has come under orders, Your Majesty the Great Emperor. All the fleets have landed at the predetermined location, and the refugee reception has begun."
"I think those idiots should turn down the volume first," I knocked my ear hard and dug around with my little finger. Then, I turned my head to Nan Li Xiang, "These are the landing transport ships. The refugees will board in order. Everyone can receive an 'absolutely' safe food and 20 plus signs for safety. After staying for a while, you will be transferred to the mothership in outer space. Oh, Mercury Lamp, help me pick my ear."
A certain puppet immediately used a feather to conjure a slender sword that was at least half a meter long and aimed it at my ear. Kacha, the sword broke.
This was how I interacted with the mercury lamp on a daily basis.
"Hey! Your soul has returned! " Seeing that Nan Li Xiang's soul was still out of her body, staring blankly at the spaceship in the sky, I couldn't help but pat her shoulder, "Can't you see that the medical transport ship has arrived? Hurry up and let the refugees board the ship. You pay for the fuel! "
"Oh, ah!" Nan Li Xiang finally reacted and then hurriedly commanded the refugees who were already in a mess, "Everyone stay calm, these … these are rescue spaceships, don't ask for the reason! Everyone just needs to know that you will be safe once you board the spaceship. The elderly and children first, gather under the white transport ship. Officer Nakaoka, don't just stand there like a fool … "
"Tell me the truth, you … Did you prepare to take these refugees from the beginning?" Nan Li Xiang asked the Nakaoka police officer to help guide the refugees. Then, she suddenly focused her gaze on me, "Why do you seem to have prepared for this from the beginning? Why did you directly send out rescue spaceships all over the world?"
"Well, more or less. We are here to save people. Did you think that we only brought the medical team?" My reply was a little awkward. Could it be that we came here with the intention of turning the entire world into glass and there was no so-called treatment plan from the beginning?
"Then why did I waste my feelings when I begged you to take the refugees away …"
The domineering policewoman immediately hung her head dejectedly, "You wouldn't be laughing at me right?"
In any case, I would never admit that it was very pleasurable to make a domineering domineering woman beg me to do things for her.
"Let's return to the mothership." At this moment, I finally said what I wanted to say since the beginning. Of course, I said it to Komuro … the girls beside her. You have to understand, at times like this, a man should be a little stronger. Komuro and whatnot are not within my scope of concern, "It seems that we need to adjust our initial plan. Let the medical team delay their actions. Right now, the most important thing is to send more teams to search the world for the survivors."
This wasn't going to be an easy task. According to the information that Nan Lixiang had provided, the human settlements had all been turned into ghost towns. The survivors had gathered into groups of less than fifty people, and they were all hiding in the deep mountains and forests. Even with the help of life detection devices, how many people would we be able to find?
But we must try our best to save as many as possible. Just like what Nan Li Xiang said, these were the last seeds of humanity on this planet. The people we saved now would directly affect the total population of humanity in the new era … By the way, should I recruit a few Town Security captains from Earth who specialize in besieging reinforcements?
Facing my decision to 'return to the mothership', the Academy Roaches only looked at each other for a while and nodded silently.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you have such beautiful fantasies in the first place.
The Gemini Star battlecruiser needed to stay on the surface and temporarily act as the final refuge. It carried the Marine Corps soldiers and countless transport aircrafts that swarmed out of the several kilometer-long alloy monster's stomach like worker bees. They quickly spread out to the largest area they could cover and began to search for any places where there might be survivors. Thanks to Kepru's insects, humans had been honed for so long. These Marine Corps soldiers who had been dealing with such situations for most of their lives were very good at such rescue work. Also, many of Kepru's technologies were also geared towards defensive and mobile development. This resulted in … an astonishing number of medical transport aircrafts and all kinds of search and rescue vehicles available.
Of course, due to the problem of "Dead Body Infection" that Nan Li Xiang mentioned, these mighty search and rescue team members were all equipped with psionic shields. Although humans and even the Astrals were still unable to grasp the psionic shield technology of the Schilling people, it wasn't too expensive to equip each of our servant army with an "eggshell". No matter what caused the humans on this planet to become dead bodies out of thin air, the psionic shield should be able to resist it — unless the dead body "virus" was a Void-level energy body.
Putting aside this side, ten minutes later, near the geosynchronous orbit.
Due to her relationship with Jukawa Shizuka, Nan Li Xiang was also half-forced to be dragged onto the shuttle to the mothership. The moment she saw the magnificent golden cross in the distant outer space, the domineering policewoman let out a cry of surprise.
"Oh my god … that's … the mothership!?"
"Just … just how big is it?"
"It's not big. The main flagship of the Interstellar Coalition is a small flagship with enhanced commanding capabilities. Compared to the seniors and juniors who specialize in charging and breaking through enemy lines, it's just a small figure," I said as I shook my head with a proud expression. No matter what, I was the one who designed this ship back then … 1% of its outer appearance. "Behind the main flagship are the battleships of the Proteus race. Their aircraft carriers and motherships are equipped with space expansion vessels and have an even more astonishing load, allowing them to carry even more human refugees. However, the living environment on them might not be suitable for humans, so I used them as backup forces."
There's one more thing that I didn't say. If everything goes according to Lin Xue's expectations, I'm afraid … even if all the remaining people in the world were added up, they wouldn't even need these backup refugee ships. They wouldn't even be able to fill up the ecosphere of the Empire Admiral.
"Oh my god …" Nan Li Xiang looked through the porthole of the shuttle at the majestic fleet of spaceships in the distant outer space as she muttered to herself. The latter was like an ancient monument in space, reflecting brilliance under the slanted sunlight. During this period, there were constantly huge spaceships leaving the formation and rushing towards the direction of Earth. They were transport ships that had been ordered to rescue new human gathering points. At the same time, a large number of small and medium-sized spaceships were rushing over from the direction of Earth, sending the refugees onto their respective motherships.
The entire world was moving at the same time.
"If only you had arrived earlier …"
After being shocked by the huge alien fleet, Nan Li Xiang finally couldn't help but fall into sorrow. "Maybe we could have saved human civilization."
Civilization extinction … Huh, it sounded so distant that I couldn't even understand what it felt like to face all this. But it really happened, and the policewoman that I had just met and the boys and girls that I had been with for more than a month were the people involved in all this. I didn't know what kind of expression I should be showing right now, but if anyone said that a smile was enough, I would definitely stuff that person's head into the fiery anus of the Gemini Star!
Miyamoto Rei was still nestled in Komuro's arms. She still could not believe what she had just experienced. Although she had experienced the collapse of the human world a few months ago, this time, the human society had collapsed to the point where not even a speck of dust remained. The degree of destruction between the two was on a completely different scale. We have already estimated the global population, and the number of survivors is less than 300,000.
7 billion versus 300,000. The huge population that humans had accumulated after tens of thousands of years of lust finally didn't cause a population crisis this time. With this number, human civilization could be said to have collapsed. I don't know how many people have heard of a mathematical model that was created by a group of bored sociologists. It described the number of people needed to maintain the various levels of human civilization, including the number of necessary scientific workers, craftsmen, artists, educators, laborers, producers … These series of people were the basic workers for the continuation of human civilization. I had already forgotten the specific number, but I was sure that 300,000 people could not even handle the steam civilization.
"At least humans haven't been wiped out yet, right?" I felt that I should comfort her. "300,000 people may not be able to bear the fruits of human civilization in the past, but I have always been confident in the reproduction ability of humans …"
Poison Island Chestnut: "I think it's better if you don't say anything."
Mercury Lamp knocked my head: "You stupid human with a head full of hormones!"
Huh? Mercury Lamp, who can't even write, knows about hormones? Which bastard gave her this kind of targeted education!
After shuttling through the huge interstellar fleet for a while — in reality, we were just having fun in the empty space. Due to the special nature of space warfare, the spaceships usually maintained enough distance for a civilian plane to run out of fuel — we returned to the Empire General. Other than the indifferent Mercury Lamp, who was still heartlessly requesting to go out for another round later, everyone else was in low spirits, including Nan Lixiang, who was still in awe of the "Space Cross", and a certain military geek who couldn't wait to have sex with guns and ammunition.
"Your Majesty, the Radiant Battlecruiser reports to you. This is Major General Lorenz of the New Eden Federation." After returning to the bridge of the flagship, the second batch of search and rescue troops that landed on Earth reported back. "We have landed in the American region. There has been a strong earthquake and the earth's crust has ruptured. We have discovered abnormal energy reactions in the rupture zone and request for reinforcements from the Empire!"
"Mm, I will send a group of Schilling's special agents down there. Stay away from the rupture zone. I have a bad feeling that your spaceship might not be able to withstand the danger."
"Chen, why do I feel that you have prepared for the worst from the start?" Komuro Takashi looked at me suspiciously. "At first, I was only a little suspicious, but now … you have delayed sending out the so-called healing personnel, but you have already prepared a refugee rescue ship from the start."
"That's right." I let out a long sigh of relief. "From the start, I have prepared for the worst … At first, I did have some fantasies. But now, it seems that bringing a group of refugee rescue ships instead of a useless healing force is a wise decision."
That was the end of the topic. I wasn't in the mood to discuss it, and Komuro Takashi didn't have the leisure to study the extinction of mankind. We focused on the latest survivors' report and the holographic projection on the bridge, showing the real-time images from the refugee rescue ships.
"People at the back, don't squeeze. Everyone can board the ship. We have enough food and space, but we don't have enough patience!"
"Prioritize the protection of young people, children, scholars, and scientists. Listen, your civilization is at the stage of life and death. We have initiated the civilization preservation process. Please act according to our instructions … Don't bring any personal belongings. Leave the spare weight quota for your books and other records …"
"Connect the collected data recording device to the central computer of the battlecruiser and upload it to the mothership of the Empire. Human civilization needs it to rebuild."
"Listen, citizen, I know you are confused, but we will not give you any explanation. We came here from another world to protect your dying civilization. Please board the ship as soon as possible. If you have extra energy to protest to the military, please use your energy to help your wife. She is dying … Mm? You say you don't know her? Oh, then you can get off the ship. I'm sorry, we have limited beds. People like you will only affect the recovery of civilization. Guards, throw this man off! "
"Everyone, gather at Area K. The spaceship is about to take off. Refugees who have not boarded the ship, go to the metal platform there. The energy shield on the surface will help you defend against the threat of the undead …"
"This is the Proteus fighter fleet. We have left the thunderstorm area and are uploading the collected information to the flagship …"
Information was gathered on the bridge and then triggered a new round of precise instructions. This was like a race, a race between the light of human civilization that was about to be completely extinguished and the end of the world. I didn't know why I had such a feeling, but … it seemed like something was really about to happen.
Because my spiritual power had vaguely come into contact with the interior of the blue planet in my field of vision. The restless energy it contained was beating like a dark heart. At first, I did have the thought of "Could it be that Deathwing is here to make a guest appearance and cause trouble?" However, I could only say that. If the trouble I wanted to solve was really just a small Deathwing, then it would be much easier. Unfortunately, my intuition told me that the bastard Fate would not let me go so easily.
Lin Xue, oh Lin Xue, what exactly did you see in this world!
