Devouring World Dragon

Chapter 268 End Calendar... 0 Years

Ringworld, TVIK-6395465 Administrative District.

"The world is about to be destroyed! Only the chosen ones will survive..."

On the street, people with open arms shouted loudly among the crowd, and the words full of demagogy were played to the maximum under the effect of powerful spiritual energy, and the crowd surrounded it, circle after circle.

The crowd surrounded it, most of the faces of men and women were confused, and some had already shown obsession.

"Look! The Satanic Star is coming. We used to live on it, we are its descendants, it is our ancestors, our homeland. No need to be afraid, no need to be afraid, now we will return to its embrace, return to To the homeland..."

Under its guidance, the psychic energy of thousands of people gathered and trembled, forming a grand whisper of psychic energy, affecting the surrounding crowd.

The grand psychic whispers are like waves, spreading out in circles, and the agitated "splashes" splash and jump up, and are drawn to the world outside the sky, and an inexplicable echo is fed back from the world outside the sky .

Low, like talking in a dream.

"Listen, beyond the starry sky, our hometown is calling us. We were born in the dust, and now we will return to the dust. The stars are not our home, but the earth is our hometown! My fellow citizens, let us go home..."

"Oh!"

Before the words fell, the fanatical voice stopped abruptly amidst the soft ringing.

The psychic whispers that were deliberately guided by humans lost their host, and the men and women who were originally in a trance seemed to wake up from a dream, with more expressions on their faces.

Not far away, Hase Jiaro, who was wearing psionic armor, put down the ray gun in his hand.

"Damn snake boy, you are already so presumptuous."

In the past, even though the Snake Cult was rampant, they did not dare to preach so blatantly in the area ruled by the Third Reich, but now, the behavior of the Snake Worship Cult is completely blatant, and even such unarmed missionaries dare to preach openly .

"Citizens of the empire, please return to your place of residence quickly, and under the guidance of the public security AI, accept the review of mental infection."

Fireworks spewed out from the engine under his feet, Changgu Jialuo flew over the crowd, and said to the crowd who had just been bewitched.

But unexpectedly, the crowd just stirred up a bit, but no one really left.

Hase Jiaro frowned.

"Citizens, I repeat, please return to your place of residence quickly, and accept the mental infection review under the guidance of the public security AI!"

"Go back? Where to go? The world will be destroyed immediately, and we have been abandoned! Don't you understand?!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.

Changgu Jialuo looked around, and he realized that something was wrong. The people who had been bewitched in the past basically would go for mental tests after they woke up, but in front of him, although the people had already woken up, they still looked at him with a sense of spirituality. hostility and anger.

They were not just bewitched by psychic energy, but really believed in the preacher's words.

Believe the words of those snake cubs who use ordinary people as human shields to attack terrorists?Believe in those snake cubs who disgust him to the point of vomiting?

A nameless anger welled up in Hase Jiaro's heart.

"you……"

Just about to reprimand them, but at this moment, a loud bell rang.

"When...when...when..."

The long bell rang from afar, and when they heard the bell, both the people and Zhang Gu Jialuo looked at it one after another.

In this small city, such scenes are happening in every corner...

On the anti-gravity floating city, the man who was drinking tea raised his head; the woman who was driving the shuttle looked down in the sea of ​​clouds; Direction; Inside the spherical building, the bureaucrat who has everything in the city in his eyes silently plays with the beads in his hands, with complicated emotions...

Everyone knows what this bell means.

At the end of the calendar, it finally reached 0 years.

In one year's time, the doomsday that everyone is fearing will come to the ring world.

……

No one knows exactly when the end calendar started. It was first predicted when the "star" would come to the ring world, and later it was called the end calendar.

Every year, the end calendar will deduct one year, year after year... So after 2000 years, human beings finally came to the last year of the end calendar—year 0 of the end calendar.

End calendar 0 year 0 month 0.

In the Ring World, this day is regarded as the last day, [Doomsday], because when the time reaches this day, that "star" will descend on the Ring World.

The "star" will swallow the entire ring world, and all good and evil will end on this day.

In order to prevent this day from coming, in the past 2000 years, countless people with lofty ideals have sacrificed their lives for this.But... I can't do it, I can't do it no matter what, I can't find a way to destroy that "star".

And a long time ago, as early as the Second Republic era, humans who realized that they might not be able to destroy that "star" were gradually evacuating the population of the ring world, but there were too many, too many, the entire ring world The population is simply too large.

How many human beings are there on the ring world?
Trillion?

Billions?

Trillions?
billion billion billion?
It is 300 billion billion billion human beings.

The area of ​​the entire ring world is a trillion times larger than that of the earth, and the efficient use of the space of the ring world makes foundation cities and floating cities spread all over from the surface to the sky.

There are more than 3000 billion stars and 10 trillion planets of various sizes in the entire Milky Way. Today, there are more than 7000 billion administrative planets in the entire Milky Way.Among these administrative planets, some have a population of less than a thousand, and some have a population of more than billions, but even if the total population of the 7000 billion administrative planets in the entire Milky Way is added together, it is less than one tenth of that of the Ring World.

Ringworld, this is the crystallization of exhaustive human wisdom, a miraculous product that gathers all greatness, glory, brilliance, and sublime.

It's so huge, it's so majestic that it dwarfs any star in the universe.It makes mankind stand proudly among the stars, calling itself the creator, but now, its hugeness has become the Achilles' heel of all mankind.

Even if the population of the entire ring world is distributed to all the administrative planets, it is not enough to carry it; even if the new colonial planet is urgently expanded, it cannot accommodate such a large population.

Every year, human beings disperse more than billions of human beings from the ring world to all corners of the universe.But even with desperate transfers, less than one-tenth of them have been transferred after 2000. Today, there are still more than 200 billion people in the world around the world.

Everyone knows that it is too late, and everyone knows that the 200 billion people in Beijing will die in [Doomsday], but there is nothing anyone can do.

"Go back? Where to go? The world will be destroyed immediately, and we have been abandoned! Don't you understand?!"

The crowd has been intensively checked by AI for mental infection, and the matter has been resolved, but for some reason, the voice of the man's grief and indignation is always echoing in Hase Jiaro's mind.

There was peace in my heart.

His mother said that she was like his father who had never met, calm and silent, solemn like a sculpture, no matter what happened, he would only become more calm.

There were not many people in the bustling streets in the past, neither in the sky nor on the ground, there were no flying shuttles or hovering cars, only some autonomous robots were working.

When I came to the Public Security Department, although it has entered the interstellar era, not everything is sci-fi. Based on the problem of cost, many places are still very similar to the police counterparts a long time ago. The centralized work should still be centralized.

Looking around, there are only a few people in the spherical weightless rooms, and most of the few people are depressed and weak.

"Is the director not here?"

Hase Galo asked.

In his impression, the director is not a hardworking person, but he is not absent from work.

"Just now AI sent a message, saying that the director was drunk at home and resigned."

A handsome young man was floating in his gravity-free room, manipulating the optical brain while speaking weakly.

"By the way, many people have also resigned. Now the Public Security Department may be just a few of us."

When the last year of the calendar is counting down, it is inevitable that some people cannot bear the pressure and then give up on themselves. This is also normal, but this year is the 0th year of the last calendar, so there are especially many.

Hase Galo nodded.

"It's just a few of us. It seems that the work in the next period of time will be more tiring."

While talking, he floated into his spherical zero-gravity room, manipulated the monitoring light brain, and with the assistance of AI, analyzed the movement of the entire city to prevent crimes from happening.

The handsome young man glanced at him in astonishment.

"I said... Do you really feel nothing at all, and you still think about work at this time."

"How do you think I should react?"

Hase Jiaro replied while scanning the information.

"Next year today, we will all die, don't you feel anything?"

"so what."

"So? What else? We're all going to die, you, me, her, we're all going to die, why don't you react at all?"

The young man's face was full of incomprehension, and he couldn't help saying.

But his answer was...

"so what."

Hase Jiaro raised his head and looked at him calmly.

"Jerome, I know what you mean, next year today, we will all die, so you don't have to work today?"

Jerome looked into his eyes, those calm, deep eyes.

He sees no fear.

Hase Jiaro's mental fluctuations were as calm as ever, as if the end of the calendar reached 0 years and most of his colleagues resigned could not affect him.

The young man took a deep breath and smiled wryly.

"As expected of you...but I'm not like you, I can't be so calm. Changgu Jialuo, I'm afraid of death. If I can, I'm willing to pay all the price to escape to other planets, but I can't. "

"You see, I can still see the 'star' even in the daytime. When I was very young, it was only faintly visible at night, but now I can see it clearly even in the daytime. Whenever I look at When I look at it, I feel fear, because I know it is getting closer, and death is getting closer to me..."

The young man bowed his head.

"Changgu Jialuo, do you think we really just wait to die like this?"

"I don't know, I just know that you should work hard, otherwise a third-degree crime will happen in front of you."

Responding to his mind fluctuations is always calm.

The young man raised his head and looked at Hase Jiaro, who was staring at him.

I don't know why, but I was already very scared in my heart, but seeing my friend remain calm as before, the fear in my heart was gradually blown away.

"Well, work hard and work hard."

Looking at Jerome, who had restored his usual hippie smile, Hase Karo nodded.

TVIK-6395465 administrative district, nothing happened today.

There are 365 days until the end.
