Chapter 1215: The city reduced to ruins, the insignificance of life and the sorrow of the weak
"Wow!"
In the sky, a mutated sea beast transformed into a roc was flying freely in the sky, and its cry was filled with excitement.
Life in the ocean also has a yearning for the sky, not to mention that this is an instinct that exists in its blood.
It was born to roam freely in the ocean and sky; it was born to be the overlord of the ocean and sky!
However, as it flew in the sky for longer and longer time, its inner excitement was almost exhausted. Just as it was about to return to the ocean, it suddenly discovered an island in the ocean.
It tilted its head and looked at the island and the human country on the island, and some familiar memories emerged in its mind.
"blood!"
"die!"
"Slaughter!"
Human ships carried a group of demons and launched endless massacres in the ocean.
Among them were its former fellow whales and good friends, but they were all hunted and killed by these demons with tools; those ships had the mark of this country on them!
More and more memories kept emerging from its mind, and its golden pupils were gradually covered with blood. Its eyes looking at the island and the country became more and more angry and filled with hatred.
"Wow!"
Terrifying spiritual power surged around its body. The sky, which had been calm for only a short while, once again became like doomsday under this surging and vast spiritual power. Dark clouds gathered and thunder surged.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, a surging and vast column of light descended from the sky. At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
"what is that?!"
On the earth, those who had not taken refuge in the shelters saw the sudden huge column of light in the sky, their eyes and faces filled with fear and helplessness.
However, no one could answer his question at this moment. As the dazzling beam of light split the sky, the entire earth made a deafening noise, which even covered the entire country. Even those who were in the shelter fell to the ground due to the sudden vibration.
And this was just the beginning. Under this blow, the city’s buildings were as fragile as paper and shattered in an instant.
The glass curtain walls of high-rise buildings shattered instantly under the impact of the shock wave, and countless glass fragments flew around like raindrops. Some buildings began to collapse in the violent shaking, and shocking cracks appeared on the walls and spread rapidly.
Bricks, rubble, and steel bars flew everywhere, the air was filled with thick dust and smoke, and vehicles on the street were overturned by the shock wave and scattered everywhere.
Some pedestrians were hit by the flying debris and fell in a pool of blood. There was chaos and screaming all around. People ran in all directions, trying to enter the shelter at this time, but it was too late.
No, it cannot be said that it is too late. Under this devastating blow, no place in the country is safe anymore.
Even the iconic building of the country's capital, the world's third tallest free-standing iron tower, was shaking in the violent shaking and finally collapsed with an even more deafening noise. The dust and smoke stirred up by the collapse covered the sky, as if the end of the world had come.
The bridge in the distance also broke under the influence of the shock wave. The twisted steel frame was crumbling in the flames. Vehicles and pedestrians on the bridge fell into the river one after another. The river water was instantly dyed red, and countless corpses and debris floated on the river.
Even those people hiding in the shelters did not survive this disaster that seemed like the power of heaven. No matter how strong the shelter was, it was instantly destroyed like fragile paper under this devastating attack, and the scarlet blood soaked the earth.
The once prosperous country no longer exists at this moment, leaving only broken walls, broken bricks and tiles, and twisted and deformed steel bars.
The air was filled with a burnt and deathly smell that made it difficult to breathe. There was deathly silence all around, and apart from the occasional faint cries for help and crying, no other sounds could be heard.
This is still not the end.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"."
There were loud noises in the sky one after another, as if it wanted to completely destroy the island. The mutated sea beast continued to surge with spiritual energy and launched an attack towards the island.
Every time an attack lands, it means that one building after another is destroyed and one life after another disappears in an instant.
I don’t know how long it took, but as if it felt tired, or as if the spiritual energy in its body had been almost exhausted, the mutated sea beast finally stopped its movements. After taking a last look at the island, it rushed into the ocean and disappeared.
"Finally, it's over."
Luoshui Sanxian looked at the figure that had left, breathed a sigh of relief, and then withdrew the protective shield that he had opened with all his strength.
Behind him are countless figures.
What Ling and the others took away were the people in power and the hope for the future of this country, and what he was protecting were the backbone of this country. After all, the establishment of a country does not only require people in power and hope.
However, these were things he had not thought of at the beginning.
After all, in the "disaster" he imagined at the beginning, it was a tsunami that destroyed the country, but the mutated sea beast actually grew wings, changed into another form and began to soar in the sky.
At the moment it flew up, he even wondered whether the mutated sea beast would not attack the country. Even if it did, without the tsunami, it would not cause too many casualties to the country.
But, unfortunately, the "disaster" still came, and it was more terrifying than he had imagined.
These pillars were an attempt at the "tsunami" he had originally envisioned. Because of his supernatural powers, he was able to control the water element, so even if he was covered by the tsunami and rushed into the ocean, he could still survive in the ocean, just like a fish in the ocean.
If the mutant sea beast had not launched subsequent attacks, he would have been able to survive with the people behind him and even find more survivors.
As long as a psychic has a slightly richer spiritual energy in his body, he can use the spiritual energy to cover a layer of membrane outside his body, allowing himself to survive in the water for a short period of time.
Although their survival is different from Luoshui Sanxian's and is extremely dependent on spiritual energy, it is enough as long as they can hold on until his arrival.
Although the tsunami is terrifying, as long as you can withstand the terrifying impact force and the threat of collapse of various buildings, enter the ocean, and wrap yourself in spiritual energy, there is a possibility of survival.
This is what he realized after communicating with Ling.
If more people could survive, rather than just the 400 taken away by Ling, perhaps there would really be hope for rebuilding the country.
But no one expected that this mutated sea monster would destroy the country in this way.
His way of thinking about mutant creatures in the future may be even more exaggerated, because reality is sometimes more exaggerated than imagination.
But should we be thankful?
Although most of the buildings were reduced to ruins, at least the land was preserved.
It is unlikely to rebuild it to its original appearance, but with the number of survivors they have now, the area of a city might be enough.
If the three first sequences are only protecting one city, there is no need to worry about safety unless the mutant sea beast appears again.
Moreover, it is not just humans who are harmed by this disaster. Those mutated beasts are probably almost all dead as well.
But I don't think Shuten-doji and Tengu will die.
The vitality of monsters is sometimes much stronger than that of humans, but their strength is not worth Luoshui Sanxian's great concern.
Especially since Tengu had just been revived, its strength was far from comparable to theirs. What's more, their country's mythology system was not that strong, so whether it could reach the level of the first sequence was also a question.
The only thing worth worrying about is whether the mutant sea beast will attack them again; if that happens, they will have to leave here.
No country can withstand the continuous attacks of a mutant creature whose strength far exceeds that of the first sequence.
Luoshui Sanxian thought for a moment and shook his head. These were all issues that he should think about later. Now, he looked at the sky that had returned to calm, turned around and said to everyone:
"Spread out and see if there are any survivors."
"If you encounter survivors but cannot rescue them yourself, please contact me."
"Yes."
After hearing Luoshui Sanxian's words, everyone came back to their senses from the doomsday disaster and responded quickly.
Although they survived, they still have relatives and friends. Although they have entered the shelter in advance, from the scene that just happened, which seemed like the destruction of the world, they are a little worried about the strength of the shelter.
The reason why these people are considered the backbone by Luoshui Sanxian is mainly because of their own technical level and the level of their awakened supernatural powers.
Although the former are not as good as the top people in their respective industries, they are all above average and have a certain reputation in their respective industries; the latter, although they have never entered the sequence, are also extremely close.
The reason why Luoshui Sanxian was not included in the 300 people was because those 300 people were better than them.
Luoshui Sanxian stood up and walked outside, his eyes full of complexity.
The once prosperous city has now been completely reduced to ruins. The flat road surface has been overturned, the underground pipes and lines have been destroyed, and the vehicles are beyond recognition and charred.
The wreckage of buildings can be seen everywhere, and the broken walls are covered with cracks and scorch marks, each of which records the cruelty and ruthlessness of the disaster.
There was an indescribable smell in the air, a mixture of burning, smoke, blood and death.
The smell makes people feel nauseous and suffocated, as if even breathing has become a luxury.
The whole city was dead silent, except for the occasional heart-wrenching cry.
This is the case for those who survive. They must bear the grief of the death of those around them and continue to live in this world on their behalf. This is the law of life and the mission of the living.
"call"
Luoshui Sanxian closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.
Once again, he felt the insignificance of life and the sorrow of the weak.
First sequence?
What's the point of being the first sequence in front of an opponent like that? He doesn't even have the courage to stand up and fight that mutant sea beast.
It was only because he was worried that his appearance would make the mutant sea beast angry, thus destroying the country more thoroughly.
The resistance of the weak is seen as a provocation by the strong.
Although some people would not think so, how could he expect a mutant creature to develop an alternative mentality?
Now this result is the best for them, at least, it is the best from a rational analysis.
But is it really the best?
Obviously, his original idea of staying here was to die here with the people, but in the end, he chose to protect the so-called backbone and thought about rebuilding the country in the future.
He chose emotion, but in the end chose rationality, but neither of them was thorough enough.
In the past, he thought he was a rational person who would only think about problems and gains and losses with the country as the center and achieve the greatest benefits with the least effort.
But when facing the moment of life and death, he chose emotion and wanted to live and die with the country; but in the end, he chose rationality.
"Too weak."
"Both in terms of strength and in terms of heart."
“Once you’ve made a choice, you shouldn’t regret it, and you shouldn’t glorify any path you haven’t chosen.”
"Meaningless."
Luoshui Sanxian erased these thoughts. What was supposed to happen had already happened. Perhaps the choice he made was contrary to his past self, but there was no point in thinking about it now.
What they need to do most now is to find survivors and rebuild the country.
"Lord Spirit God, I found a survivor here!"
"Lord Spirit God, I found a survivor here too!"
"Lord Spirit God."
The voice coming from the communicator made Luoshui Sanxian stunned for a moment, and then he smiled.
Atop these ruins, new hope has begun to sprout.
The past cannot be undone, but the future can be changed.
"coming."
On the sea, on the deck of a warship, many figures were standing on it.
In their sight, their homeland had been completely reduced to ruins.
"Are we going back now?"
A figure looked at the island which seemed to have returned to peace and said hesitantly.
He witnessed with his own eyes how the mutated sea beast destroyed his country with one devastating attack after another, but he did not dare to feel any anger or hatred. Instead, he was filled with endless gratitude, gratitude that he was chosen and gratitude that he survived.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if he stayed there.
If you are lucky, you may be able to keep your body intact; if you are unlucky, you will be in the center of those attacks and you will be vaporized directly, and your whole body will disappear in an instant.
But the relief I felt at that time has turned into a sense of complexity and heaviness now that everything is over.
After all, that is their country, the country where they have lived for countless years.
