Chapter 1767: The Fall of the Capital

Above the sky of this planet, huge polyhedrons appeared one after another. They were as slender as shuttles, with surfaces as smooth as mirrors. They slowly descended from the sky and quietly hovered in the air.

Everyone looked up and stared in amazement at this bizarre scene.

Whoever it is, at this moment, will associate the image of the world hanging upside down in the sky with these strange polyhedrons.

Zhang Yi's intelligent system kept ringing, and messages from many people told him about unusual movements around the world.

At this point, Zhang Yi realized that this situation was not only occurring in Tianhai City.

But the whole world, this planet is completely surrounded by 369 huge crystals!

Leaders of major organizations around the world held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with this matter.

The plan originally scheduled to go to Fremons today has been temporarily put on hold.

Meng Yuanjun, Deng Shentong, Zhu Zheng and others kept sending messages to Zhang Yi. Leaders of various regions were going to hold a meeting to discuss this emergency.

Zhang Yi was too lazy to turn on the 3D projection and joined the meeting directly via voice.

He looked at the spectacular scene before him, his eyes fixed on the polyhedron hanging high above his head. In fact, he was ready to attack it at any time - of course, also ready to run away at any time.

Fortunately, the polyhedron seemed to be floating above his head, but according to the prompts of the intelligent system, it was still hundreds of kilometers away from Zhang Yi's position horizontally.

As soon as the meeting started, all the regional leaders who were hastily called in were arguing with each other.

"Have you seen that thing? Can anyone tell me what it is?"

"Who knows? I have already ordered the missile troops to aim at it. Once they find that it has any intention of attacking, they will immediately launch missiles at it!"

"We observed it and found it very strange. There was no trace of mechanical bite on it. It looked like a naturally formed whole."

"Don't be ridiculous, how could something like this be formed naturally?"

At this time, Li Changgong made a suggestion: "It is meaningless for us to argue like headless flies. I think we need to send someone to investigate."

Xuanwu reminded cautiously: "However, we have no idea where it came from. And whether the civilization that controls it has good intentions towards us."

"If we send out fighter jets to conduct reconnaissance, it might be considered an attack. That would be very troublesome!"

Meng Yuanjun's voice came out from time to time, "I am also holding a meeting with the World United Organization. We are currently warning all major forces in the world not to act on their own."

Li Changgong said: "Instead of using fighter planes, why not just use people?"

"Chaos, your ability allows you to approach quickly without being discovered. Why don't you go over and scout nearby!"

Zhang Yi's Senluo Wanxiang can isolate all materials at the force level, so reconnaissance methods have no effect on him.

Zhang Yi said, "Since they are an advanced civilization, how can you be sure that they can't find me? I'm not interested in taking risks."

Li Changgong continued, "But right now, apart from you, no one else can do anything."

"None of my business."

Zhang Yi just replied coldly.

He never acts rashly before he is sure of the other party's background.

He had already gestured to Zhou Ke'er and others, asking them to gather around him.

If any accident happens, he will take his people away immediately.

Li Changgong seemed a little angry, "Huan Dun, you are always like this. You have no sense of the overall situation at all!"

"Well, what? You bit me!"

Zhang Yi sneered.

"you……"

Li Changgong was extremely angry, but he also knew that Zhang Yi had never been subjected to moral kidnapping, so there was no point in preaching to him.

However, Xuanwu also said to Zhang Yi: "Hun Dun, the current situation is too sudden. Among us, you are the strongest and your ability is convenient for investigation. Please think about it again."

Zhang Yi raised his lips and said disdainfully: "Observe? Observe what?"

"If those things don't show up on their own initiative, our various reconnaissance equipment won't even be able to detect their existence."

"The technology level that can project the entire world into the sky is far beyond that of humans today."

"Its surface is smooth and integrated. Unless you break the shell and get inside, you can't do anything once you get close. Are you asking me to go over and look in the mirror?"

The meeting fell into silence. After listening to Zhang Yi's words, they felt that there was some truth in them.

However, when faced with such an incomprehensible scene, people inevitably panic. What makes them most anxious is that they have no way to take any action.

The 369 polyhedrons hanging high in the sky did not move, they just floated quietly in the air.

At this time, Yang Xinxin made a guess.

"If these polyhedrons are distributed throughout the planet, then they may be some kind of reconnaissance device used to obtain all the information about the surface world."

Yang Xinxin's words awakened the dreamer.

Since the other party is an advanced civilization, there is naturally no need for them to play tricks on humans.

Then the biggest possibility of projecting the entire world is to obtain information about the surface world.

"However, we cannot rule out the possibility that these polyhedrons have powerful lethality."

"Moreover, spying on the surface world could be a precursor to an attack."

Zhang Yi's eyebrows were furrowed.

At this point, the top leaders of countries and organizations around the world were completely furious.

They discussed this matter excitedly. The radicals even wanted to launch missiles to attack, while the moderates believed that the other party did not launch an attack and must have come with good intentions. They should send someone to communicate.

Zhang Yi just felt a dull pain in his head.

There must be some connection between Fremons' mechanical civilization and the strange polyhedron in the sky.

If I'm not mistaken, they probably come from the same civilization.

But it’s hard to say, because nowadays, there are quite a few civilizations in the underground world.

The world seems to be shrouded in a fog.

Only the human world is in the open.

He rubbed his brows and said to everyone, "Everyone enter the fortress, Mu Yan is ready to take everyone into the shadow space."

In the following period of time, the world was in a state of tension.

Zhang Yi believes that the emergence of this kind of thing will definitely lead to subsequent actions.

However, three days passed in a flash.

However, the polyhedrons hanging high in the sky did not make any further movements.

Everyone was waiting nervously and anxiously.

On the one hand, they were afraid of these huge polyhedrons, fearing what they might do.

But on the other hand, they are like people awaiting execution, fearing that these strange multifaceted bodies will attack humans one day, and they are always anxious.

But there is good news.

When the sky changed strangely, Fremons' mechanical army, which had been destroying the territory of the human kingdom, suddenly disappeared.

A second possibility emerged in Zhang Yi's mind.

Could it be that these polyhedrons in the sky belong to a more powerful civilization, and their appearance made the previous mechanical civilization afraid and no longer dared to act?

Even these polyhedrons belong to the creator of this world, and even the divine punishment that warned the powerful underground civilization before came from it?

After all, they have appeared on the surface world for so long, but there is no sign of them being punished by heaven.

All kinds of speculations ran through Zhang Yi's mind repeatedly.

Another week passed.

These polyhedrons seem to be locked in the sky, and only the entire world reflected by the sky reminds people of their existence.

No one dares to attack them, this is a death order from all major forces in the world.

People began to get used to their existence, and some even believed that these were things created by advanced civilizations to protect world peace.

Because after they appeared, the abnormal movements that had occurred in various areas also disappeared briefly.

However, Yang Xinxin thinks they are too optimistic.

"It's just the law of the dark forest."

She said calmly.

Zhang Yi asked her what she meant.

Yang Xinxin looked around and took an orange from the fruit plate.

"Our planet is like this orange. Humans are microorganisms living on the orange peel."

"We are in the light, with nothing covering us, and we can see everything clearly."

"But underneath the orange peel, there is a much wider space. They are wrapped in the orange peel, so no one knows what is inside."

“Humanity has developed civilization for thousands of years, but have we really studied the planet under our feet thoroughly? The answer is no.”

"There is an unknown civilization underground, and such a huge space can accommodate hundreds of times more life than the surface."

"Now I think that each civilization is only vaguely aware of the existence of other civilizations. They hide in different areas and at different depths, and no one knows how powerful the other is."

"Therefore, they must carefully hide their whereabouts while gathering intelligence on other civilizations."

As she spoke, she peeled the orange peel, put a piece of orange into Zhang Yi's mouth, and said with a smile:

"Do you remember what was recorded on the lost stone tablet?"

"There may be some kind of rules in this world that allow creatures to form a pyramid and continue to kill each other, concentrating life energy on a small number of people at the top."

"This may refer to individuals, or it may refer to the relationship between civilizations. We must constantly hunt other civilizations to gain living space."

Zhang Yi thought what Yang Xinxin said made a lot of sense.

Now, he sits on the top of Tianhai Fortress every day and looks up at the strange polyhedron hanging high in the sky.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Originally, time passed very quickly and no one would notice it.

However, these ten days have plunged the entire world into an extremely tangled and complicated state.

They seem to have become a part of this world, and along with the image of the upside-down world, have become a normal part of people's lives.

Zhang Yi has an impulse every day, which is to go to the vicinity of the polyhedron to investigate in person as Li Changgong said.

But the cautious habits he had developed over the years had restrained him from having such thoughts.

However, this thought is getting stronger day by day. Zhang Yi understands that if this situation continues, one day he will not be able to control his inner curiosity and the feeling of uneasiness that will shroud him all day long, and he will take the initiative to find out the truth.

But no matter what humans think.

Those polyhedrons still hang high in the sky like satellites, silently.

Finally, in such silence, someone couldn't stand the loneliness anymore.

In Fremons, the underground movement began again.

And this time the scale is even bigger and the conflict is more intense!

Zhang Yi received a request for help from Fremons, but this time it was not Alexi, but an official from Fremons' diplomatic department.

He spoke sincerely and even with some fear in his eyes, he asked Zhang Yi for help.

"Lord Chaos, didn't you promise to come to support us Fremons? Why haven't you left yet? The trouble we are facing is even worse now!"

Zhang Yi wanted to ask, didn’t they stay quiet for a while before?

"Is it bad?"

Zhang Yi asked curiously.

The diplomatic official took a deep breath. He looked tired and had obvious dark circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest recently.

"Karen City has fallen."

Karen City, the capital of the country of Fremons.

Its status is equivalent to Shengjing City of Huaxu State.

When Zhang Yi heard the news, he was stunned.

"Karen City has fallen? Can't the people of the Pantheon stop them?"

There was desperation in the officer's voice.

"The attack happened too suddenly. The monsters invaded Karen City from underground all of a sudden. We couldn't detect them at all and were caught off guard."

"Although the masters of the Pantheon fought back in time, the scale of their attack this time was too large, and there were also some terrifying humanoid creatures among them, whose strength... was even stronger than that of the masters of the Pantheon."

“There’s simply nothing we can do to stop them from destroying everything.”

The man's voice was full of despair.

Zhang Yi couldn't imagine the sight of the capital of a world power being destroyed overnight.

You know, Fremons is different from Huaxu Kingdom. Although they are also a federal country, the top leaders have always held absolute power.

Even the most powerful alien organization, the Pantheon, is located in Karen City.

Even so, Karen City could not withstand the attack of the mechanical civilization.

This also means that the mechanical civilization underground in Fremons may be more powerful than the Wuluan Empire!

No, it can be said with certainty that they have greater strength than the Wuluan Empire.

If we don’t take the aliens into consideration, we are already overwhelmingly ahead in terms of technology.

Zhang Yi asked: "What are the casualties at the Pantheon?"

"Three Ipsilon-class aliens died in the battle. However, the main gods of the Pantheon successfully fought their way out of the encirclement and fled to Samaran City with their high-ranking officials."

"I also hope that Your Excellency will consider the friendship between our two countries for many years and our previous support for you in the battle against the Wuluan Empire and bring troops to help us drive out those terrible underground civilization creatures."
