Devouring World Dragon

Chapter 270 There are still three days before the end

When Chang Gu Jialuo stepped into the Public Security Department, he saw only one person, a handsome young man who was drunk.

"Faffa Chipu has resigned."

The young man opened his hazy eyes, raised his wine glass as usual, and laughed loudly.

On the side, there is a video message of a young girl. In the video, she looks very haggard, but she still smiled reluctantly.

"I'm sorry, I think... I really can't bear it anymore. I really can't work these days. Now I just want to go home with my sister and spend the last three days quietly."

"Jerome, Galo, I hope you can spend these last three days happily..."

In a low voice, the video message disappeared, and finally, there were only two people left in the entire Public Security Department.

Jerome held the bottle and drank with his head back.

His cheeks were reddish, God knows how much wine he had to drink to make an interstellar human drunk.

Frustration, despair, numbness, these are the emotions that permeate the entire ring world.Needless to say, this kind of emotion, in the ring world where everyone has psychic power, this negative emotion itself will be felt by other human beings, and the despair of the 200 billion trillion human beings in the entire ring world has been soothed by psychic power The fog can't be suppressed day and night.

Suicide, violence, indulgence...

These behaviors are happening all the time in the ring world. There are trillions of human beings in an entire administrative area, but there are only two people left in the Public Security Department. The order has completely collapsed before, and it has fallen into the scene of the end of the world.

Now it is difficult for the empire to maintain order, and the entire galaxy can see the decline of the empire. Instead, the empire can rely on those self-discipline machines.

Hase Jiaro remained calm, but Jerome stared blankly at the wine bottle in his hand, remained silent for a long time, then glanced at Hase Jiaro and said.

"Do you want to go out with me?"

……

In the huge city, the tracks and roads above the ground extend in all directions, just like dragons and snakes swimming; while above the city, the huge anti-gravity city casts artificial light, making the city below appear in daylight.

The towering buildings on the ground, the inverted buildings in the sky, and the array of spears and halberds facing each other form a strange and spectacular scene.

From here, you can't go out of the city boundary on foot, because it is too big, and more than one trillion human beings live in this huge urban agglomeration with an area of ​​40 square kilometers.

But this administrative district, which used to be extremely prosperous, is now empty.

Except for the two security officers who just arrived, as far as the eye can see, there are only some self-discipline machines that are still working in this huge city, and there are no other living things.

The air was filled with psionic spray, trying to suppress the almost boiling tide of psionic energy, but even so, the two could still feel the faint breath of despair.Despair pervades the entire ring world.

"Sir, please return to yourself, this will be your last moment with your relatives and friends..."

At this time, an autonomous machine similar to a round wheel flew in front of the two of them, and issued a series of promotional sentences in a mechanical voice.

The stay-at-home order was enforced two days ago. Except for a few people who go out for some special reasons, the vast majority of human beings will no longer be allowed to go out of their homes.

Although the self-discipline machines are still polite at the moment, if someone violently resists, they will be immediately taken emergency measures and forcibly sent back to themselves, and around them, those self-discipline machines that were originally cleaning have also faintly surrounded.

Facing this scene, Jerome just raised his hand.

A wave of invisible psychic energy spread out, triggering a special psychic key. The command light of the self-discipline machine flashed a few times, and it made a mechanical sound again.

"Hi Sheriff Jerome, you have been granted special attendance authority. You will be able to move freely within one hour after the key is triggered... Thank you for your cooperation."

After identifying the identities of the two, the wheel-shaped autonomous machine left automatically, and the other autonomous machines also resumed their previous actions.

On the empty street, there were only two people left again.

"Is there anything you want to say?"

Hase Galo asked.

He realized that Jerome was not very natural today, and seemed to have something to say.

Looking at the empty city in front of him over and over again with complicated eyes, Jerome shook his head.

"A month ago, you asked me what my story was like, but I didn't tell you. Are you interested in hearing it now?"

"I'm interested to hear."

Jerome glanced at Hasegaro behind him.

"Then keep following me."

The ion engine under the feet of the two ejected a light blue light, and then flew towards the target at a hundred times the speed of sound...

The shallow energy layer on the body shields the impact from the outside world, while under the body, the urban agglomeration forms a blurred afterimage, and the earth is quickly elongated and thinned in sight, turning into a series of floating phantoms.

10公里，20公里，30公里……50公里……100公里……

After flying for several minutes and thousands of kilometers, the two stopped.

At the foot is a huge urban agglomeration, a huge urban agglomeration not inferior to the TVIK-6395465 administrative district.

The dense high-rise buildings and the dense road network...all prove the prosperity of the past, but that is the past.

Today, there is only a glimpse of the endless ruins of the city.

Strange and huge plants are entwined around the city, and unknown beasts are roaming in the city. Those huge floating cities have already crashed due to lack of maintenance. Not far away, there is a huge floating city that crashed above the city. remains.

Civilization and wildness are integrated into one at this moment.

TVIK-6395056 administrative district, an administrative district with a similar number but abandoned many years ago, all the residents have left long ago.

The area of ​​the ruins of this urban agglomeration is so huge that it is impossible to walk out from the center of the ruins for a year. However, such a huge city ruin has never been repaired, because on the ring world, like this There are too many ruins in the city.

When the city is reduced to ruins, human beings will not repair it, but only think about changing a residence.

Even if most of the world around the world has been reduced to wasteland, urban ruins, jungles, and no-man's land, this small half of the world around the world can easily accommodate 200 billion trillion humans.Even in the past 1000 years, the entire ring world has been squandering the legacy of the ancestors, almost no new construction, and it is impossible to squander the huge wealth left by the [Golden Age].

In the [Golden Age] in the early days of the ring world, human beings created so many brilliance that even if the order continued to collapse, it would be enough to leave a legacy for future generations.

"What a magnificent ruin...but still a ruin, isn't it."

Looking at the ruins, the corners of Jerome's mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile.

If the ring world full of ruins is a big ruin, then the human beings living on the ring world are undoubtedly the people living in the big ruins.

Hase Jiaro closed his eyes, as if he was feeling something.

In the ruins, scattered autonomous machines are monotonously repeating the words "abandoned area, please do not live in" and so on.These autonomous machines have been advertised here for many years, and it looks like they will continue to be advertised, even if the end is three days away.

"About 20000 galactic years ago, one of my ancestors came to the Sumoer galaxy and participated in the earliest construction of the ring world..."

With a cigarette in his mouth, Jerome lit it expressionlessly, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a circle of smoke.

He didn't speak with psionic fluctuations, but opened his mouth rarely.Different from his handsome appearance, his voice is very hoarse and sounds very tired.

"At that time... there were no empires or republics. It was still dominated by a supreme scientific conference composed of scholars. Someone in that group of scholars proposed an idea to build a ring world. Then various human regimes that were loose at that time participated. A large number of humans and machines were sent to participate in the construction, and my ancestors seem to be workers from one of the small regimes? Probably."

"Building the Ringworld was a very, very long process, and no one has ever built a project of this magnitude before or since. So my ancestors asked their friends: 'How long do you think we're going to be here? ' At that time, his friend shook his head. Then the ancestor understood and said to the friend: 'I think we should make a home here'."

"This is one of the few records left by my ancestors."

Jerome looked at the cigarette butt in his hand complicatedly, snuffed it out, and then lit another.

"So, a family was established like this..."

"After this, after many, many years, the Supreme Scientific Conference disappeared, the First Empire disappeared, and came to the Second Republic. My family was also on the verge of destruction due to turmoil many times in the middle, and once the only descendant was also reduced. On the savage planet, he almost became a barbarian and barely escaped. It was not until 18741 in the Milky Way Calendar that the ring world was finally built."

"In that year, 15000 galactic years have passed since my ancestors came to the Su Moer galaxy."

As he spoke, he pointed down with his hand and said calmly.

"This area, and even this area around the world, were built by our family for generations."

"2787 generations, counting me, from my unknown ancestor to now, it has been a full 2787 generations. After the ring world was repaired, my family has always settled here."

He raised his head, closed his eyes and fell into the memory, muttering.

"Sometimes, I really feel that our family is like a family made up of dead people. My two thousand generations of ancestors have always lived beside us. They never spoke, but we know that they have always been, and they have been silent. Watch us quietly, watch us build the ring world, watch us build this TVIK-6395056 administrative district..."

The closed eyes opened again.

In a daze, he seemed to be able to see countless phantoms in front of his eyes. Those figures were men and women, old and young, but they couldn't see their appearance clearly.

He knew that those were just illusions, the illusion that he was overwhelmed by the long history of his family, but he couldn't stop himself from looking, because he could see, he could see the silent gaze of those figures.

Is it mercy?Is it compassion?concern?Is it harsh?

He doesn't know, he only knows that the eyes of the ancestors of more than 2000 generations are looking at him. They don't speak, but they are looking at him.

"They are, they always have been."

In front of those eyes, the 2787th generation descendant of this family lowered his head weakly and said softly.

"Then, just 400 years ago, the administrative district of TVIK-6395056 was abandoned..."

At the foot, on the solid road in the past, a few small grasses swayed gently.

The green grass swayed like this, they were carefree, like a huge mockery, mocking him, mocking this ancient family.

I don't know why, but the more he looked at these few grasses, the more he disliked them.Gritting his teeth, nameless anger welled up in his heart.

He stepped on it suddenly, stepped on it furiously, and cursed over and over again.

"Trash! Trash! Trash! A bunch of fucking trash! This administrative district is a joke! This ring world is a joke! Human beings are a joke! What the hell are we here for? What the hell are we here for?" ?It’s all trash! Can’t do anything! Can’t do anything!”

"..."

As he stomped, he cursed and sobbed.

After a long time, he fell to the ground exhausted, lying on the ground like big characters.

"Changgu Jialuo, my story is finished now, if you want me to return to my post, please hurry up and order."

Saying that, he closed his eyes.

But after a long time, he still failed to hear the words from Chang Gu Jialuo.

Opening his eyes in doubt, Hase Jiaro was operating something on the watch in his hand.

"what are you doing?"

"Application for a one-day leave for TVIK-6395465 Sheriff Jerome, one day later, return to work."

The cold voice remained.

Then, Hase Jiaro looked at him.

"Tomorrow...I hope to see you again in the Public Security Department."

After speaking, the man turned and left.

Looking at the leaving figure, Jerome's eyes were complicated.

"Hope...to see me again."

……

"The ancestor asked his friend: 'Are we going to create the world?' The friend replied: 'No, we are already creating the world'."

——"Stories of the Ancestors"

"Haha, so it seems that I can also be the God of Creation?"

In space, the young worker raised the wine bottle in his hand, and laughed loudly at his friend's answer.

In the distance, beside the blue giant star, countless machines are creating miracles.

……

TVIK-6395465 administrative district, nothing happened today.

There are 2 days until the end.
