Chapter 2965 The Second Doomsday
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The brilliance in Wen Wen’s eyes spread to Tang Ka’s body through her gentle eyes like thousands of invisible fireflies, filling Tang Ka with warmth. For some reason, a brand-new strength was born in his heart. “Of course, if you have a different understanding about the future of the Holy Alliance, you are more than welcome to question or even oppose me. After all, 1 am not a god.
Wen Wen put on the most beautiful smile and said in a low voice, “However, when all of us join hands, we might be able to create a new god!
Tangka took a deep breath and nodded.
He returned to his companions. “What happened? What did you say to the goddess?”
The ‘devil children’ crowded close and asked him in a low voice. “Nothing.”
Looking at the planet that was getting larger and bluer on the light beam in front of him, Tangka glanced at Chu Zhiyun, the class monitor, and put on an equally brilliant smile.
He summoned his courage and held the squad leader’s hand. “Wenwen asked us to prepare. We’re—going home!”
Right when the Blue Sea Realm in front of Wen Wen, Tang Ka, Chu Zhiyun, and all the ‘devil children’ and the entire Sanctuary Alliance welcomed a new life, the border of the imperium billions of lightyears away, the world of martial arts and the paradise of evil land, seemed to be welcoming its doom.
BOOM!
An earsplitting explosion shook the sky and the earth. Broken stones and debris were flying everywhere. The city wall that had been built up by the debris collapsed. Countless people were hit by the burning debris and died before the flames burnt their brains.
A large batch of bizarre-shaped bandits, who seemed to have gone mad and were walking dead at the same time, crowded in through the gaps on the city wall and charged at the city of Taiping. It seemed that one of the few civilian towns in the land of evil would be torn apart by the bandits and thugs within half a day. “Fight!”
The mayor of the village, Gu Zhengyang, had bloodshot eyes and a coarse voice. He was thin and dry, like a lake that had been vaporized around the village and was about to be burnt to a crisp. “Da da da da da da da da da!”
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The storm bolters and crystal cannons deployed on the two sides of the village opened fire at the same time. The firepower of the city today was more than ten times stronger than before Li Yao, Liu Li, and Han Te had left. But even the tornado-like firepower was not enough to stop the crazy bandits. Even if the bandits in the front were cut in half or blown into pieces by the explosive bullets, the bandits in the back would not even blink their eyes and continue charging forward.
In their dirty eyes, there was no longer any hint of humanity. Even the bestiality was lackluster. They were merely being driven away by their hunger and rushing to their death or the last carnival before their death. “Village Chief, there are too many bandits and thugs. They are like locusts. Our outer defense line will not be able to hold on much longer!” “There are—there are so many bandits. Have all the gangs on the Blood Plateau gathered?” “Nonsense. There are not many villages of value around the Blood Plateau that can be attacked. We are the only survivors of the city. We are the largest and the richest. Who else can we attack if not us?” “Has the rescue signal been sent out?” “What’s the point of sending it out? Nobody is going to save us. This is the end of the badlands. There are no normal people in the badlands anymore. Our food is running out, too. Even if the bandits do not come to attack us, we will become new bandits in a few days!” “Village Chief, Village Chief!”
The desperate screams of the villagers echoed around Gu Zhengyang like the high-flying bullets of the gang of bandits. His eyes were bloodshot, his ears were humming, and his chest was pounding as if something was about to crawl out.
BOOM! BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!
When it rains, it pours. Under the crazy assault of countless bandits, the outer defense line was already in peril, but dozens of bandits, who were tied up with a lot of crystal bombs, jumped down from the glider and tried to land in the area where the defenders were densest. Dozens of people were blown into pieces. One of the bandits happened to land next to the ammunition box and detonated it, blowing up half of the defense line.
At the edge of the city, there used to be a vast lake.
Even though the weather during the ‘Ssecond Armageddon’ had changed and the drought had vaporized the lake, the mud at the bottom of the lake was still an excellent barrier.
But right now, the bottom of the lake had been covered in dead bodies and debris, which had been crushed by the treads time and time again, creating a bloody road leading to the city. “Kill them all!” “Hungry, hungry, hungry!”
The bandits no longer looked like human beings, or even ferocious animals such as lions and tigers. Instead, they were like a bunch of hungry locusts, insignificant ants, and cruel mantises that were attacking the city! “Moo!”
Gu Zhengyang stomped on the last wall made of the shell of the starship and spat out a mouthful of saliva that was mixed with half a tooth.
His tooth marrow was exposed to the air. It was cramping and stinging, but he did not feel anything.
Something wet fell off his face. He wiped it with his hand, only to discover that it was a piece of flying shrapnel that had been embedded in his eyebrow. He tried to pull it out but failed. The shrapnel seemed to be alive and dug deeper and deeper into his eyebrow.
Gu Zhengyang gave up the idea of pulling out the shrapnel. He wiped the blood off his face and put it into his mouth. it had been a long time since he last tasted such sweetness. It was so sweet that his throat was hissing, as if he had placed an ice cube on a heated iron plate. “You can’t blame them. Judging from their clumsy tactics and equipment, they are not real bandits at all. Maybe not long ago, they were innocent villagers just like us.
The taste of blood and the burning flames made him hallucinate. Gu Zhengyang grinned and thought in a daze, “Innocent? Is there really an innocent person in the wretched land? Er Hu was right. Thankfully, the bandits attacked the city first. Otherwise, we would’ve joined the bandits and become the walking dead when the food ran out in a few days. “The second apocalypse. The goddamn second apocalypse! “It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. We’ve struggled for such a long time without dignity, hope, or humanity in the evil land. The meaning of our existence has withered. But it has turned into the cruelest punishment.
Let everything end like this. The second apocalypse. The real apocalypse!”
Gu Zhengyang’s thoughts drifted to two years ago.
Two years ago, Li Yao and the boxing champion controlled ‘Grand Iron City’ and fought a grand battle against ‘City in the Sky, Red Spider Lily’. Later, Li Yao rode the Giant God Soldier inside the so-called ‘Red Spider
Lily’ and blew down the entire synchronous orbital fortress.
Although this action ended the tragic fate of the people of the evil land becoming toys.
However, since then, a civil war had broken out between the revolutionaries and the four major families. Both sides had concentrated all their resources in order to annihilate the other side in one go. They had no time to care about the test site and the test field, which could have been abandoned a long time ago.
As far as the locals were concerned, the collapse of ‘Red Spider Lily, City in the Sky’ had the most direct consequence, which was that they would never get a box of food or a water-cleaning chip from the orbit.
The barren land that had been bombarded and polluted was a barren land in the first place. Even the plants that could resist coldness and pollution such as the gold foil found it hard to grow on the land that was full of radiation and venom. Almost all the food was provided by the orbit.
It was also because the ‘sky dwellers! above the Red Spider Lily had strangled the lifeline of their life that the native devils were forced to become toys without dignity and hope.
In order to get rid of the fate of being a toy and become a real person with dignity and pride, this road was destined to be full of hardships and thorns.
In the beginning, the debris of ‘City in the Sky, Red Spider Lily’ was a great windfall for all the bandits and civilians in the entire evil land, at least on the Blood Plateau right at the point of impact.
Theoretically speaking, all the assets that fell from the sky were enough for people to live a frugal life for three to five years without killing or plundering each other.
However, one’s appetite was limited, but one’s ambition and greed were limitless. “The city in the sky has fallen. From now on, we will never get food from the sky again. “The fall of the City in the Sky brought a lot of the most advanced weapons. Not just the supersonic armed shuttles, even the most lethal weapons such as crystal suits can be found here. As for the super weapons, not only will we be able to pick them up, other bandit gangs and even the civilians will be able to get them!
Under the two cruel conditions, it was not hard to guess what would happen to the evil land that was soaked in blood.
All the bandits seemed to have been injected with stimulants and set on fire. They went on a rampage and attacked other bandits before they figured out how to use the best weapons. Their purpose was to steal the food and weapons of the bandits and reduce their number as much as possible. ‘City in the Sky, Red Spider Lily’ had collapsed. From now on, there would be no more food falling from the sky, and the Badlands did not produce much food in the first place. In other words, the total amount of food on the planet was constant and decreasing, and the trend was irreversible.
Since human beings had to consume food when they were alive, the fewer survivors there were, the more food each survivor could get, which meant that their survival time would be longer.
It was a simple logic.
Even a child could tell.
Kill others and take their food. The fewer people there were, the fewer threats there would be. The more food there was, the longer everyone could live..
