The person he wanted to trade with was the witch, but he didn't expect that the pink twin-tailed girl standing with the witch interrupted their communication twice and refused to trade. This was very interesting.

Chen Ming glanced at Su Miao and said, "Why?"

Su Miao was afraid that the other party would make a sudden move, but she still mustered up the courage to say: "Because everything you told is a lie from beginning to end. You only want this technology and have no intention of trading at all. You are even planning to kill us."

Chen Ming, who was under the cloak, was surprised. He looked at Pei Xiaomiao and said, "Witch, what do you mean?"

Pei Xiaomiao said: "What she means is what I mean."

Chen Ming said: "Okay, then I'll go."

Chen Ming has never doubted the combat power of "Witch" Pei Xiaomiao. Just look at the many undead elites who are ready to attack.

He was able to kill the old spider easily just now because there was only one of them, and it was easy to crush him to death.

But it's hard to say if they all go together, let alone the witch herself.

In addition, Su Miao's strength has always been difficult for Chen Ming to see through.

What if it looks weak but is actually very strong?

If we want to start a war, wait until next time we bring people.

Su Miao held the sycamore wood staff tightly, maintaining the magic space array, and prepared to order the undead to attack.

Suddenly, the world was turned upside down, the earth shook, the mountains collapsed, and the earth cracked.

A magnitude 8.5 earthquake broke out!

Chapter 200 The war begins

2024-02-01

The earthquake came very suddenly.

Amidst the terrifying roar, a bottomless ravine appeared between Su Miao, Pei Xiaomiao and Chen Ming. Many undead souls and falling rocks fell down before they had time to react.

Su Miao couldn't stand firmly, so she grabbed Pei Xiaomiao with one hand and stepped back 10 meters to avoid being swallowed by the cracking ground.

Chen Ming in the distance immediately retreated.

In a blink of an eye there was no trace.

Six minutes later, the earthquake stopped. Su Miao was holding the sycamore wood staff with lingering fear.

Pei Xiaomiao was also frightened. If Su Miao had not taken her back in time, she would have fallen, and the consequences would have been disastrous.

Facing this kind of natural disaster, it would be useless no matter how strong she was.

"Let's go back."

Su Miao looked around, confirmed that Chen Ming had left, and ordered the undead to continue patrolling, preparing to return to the apricot tree boundary.

Pei Xiaomiao said: "Don't go up the mountain for now. If there is another earthquake halfway, it will be very dangerous."

Su Miao nodded: "Okay."

This earthquake was too sudden and too terrifying.

Su Miao had seen landslides and mudslides erupt in tourist areas, swallowing up many villas in the blink of an eye, but at that time she was at least several hundred meters away from the landslide area.

This time it happened in front of her.

Scared~

The two found a flat area to stop and wait for possible aftershocks.

The aftershocks came much faster than they thought.

Just over 10 minutes later, the first wave of aftershocks came. The earthquake lasted for 3 minutes and the earthquake magnitude was above 7.0.

An hour later, the second and third waves of aftershocks arrived successively. They lasted very short, but the earthquake magnitude was above 1.

After that, several aftershocks occurred one after another, and the earthquake level was no longer so strong.

By about 3 a.m., there were no aftershocks.

As for whether there will be terrible aftershocks in the next few days, Su Miao doesn't know, but there probably will be.

At around 4 o'clock in the morning, when the sky was dark, Su Miao and Pei Xiaomiao returned to the apricot tree boundary.

Su Miao stood on the mountain and looked into the distance.

They saw a five- to six-meter-wide ravine appearing where they were standing last night. The ravine twisted and twisted toward the distance, which was frightening.

There was a mountain opposite. It seemed as if someone had slashed the mountain with a knife. Half of it slid down for a hundred meters.

In the plains farther away, there are cracks everywhere, which look like cracks in the skin.

Pei Xiaomiao said: "This earthquake will kill many people."

Su Miao said: "Yeah."

Affected by extreme cold and high temperatures, many people choose to live underground.

The disaster situation may be slightly better in formal official shelters, but it is hard to say in places like private bases and trading areas.

Many people simply dig basements under their houses, find something to support them and live.

Some won't even have support.

Because the wood used for support will be used to make fires for cooking.

In this case, when a major earthquake strikes, the basement they dug is likely to collapse, burying the people living in it underground...

Even worse are those who live in cities.

Their houses were first exposed to heavy rains and floods for several months, and then were frozen for several months by heavy snowstorms. When the high-temperature natural disasters arrived, these buildings became very fragile and would collapse at the slightest disturbance. Not to mention they also dug various basements.

Chen Ming returned to Zhonghai City and saw the devastated Zhonghai City.

The living safety zone he designated in Zhonghai City was full of corpses. People with abilities were trying their best to save people, but most of the people who were rescued died.

Chen Ming strode forward without saying a word.

Everyone else can die, but there is one person in Zhonghai City who cannot die.

A few minutes later, Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the girl who was repairing a huge steel beast.

"Brother, does the witch agree to the deal?"

Zhuang Ying, who was holding a wrench, stopped what he was doing and asked.

She is the third person in Zhonghai City, Chen Ming's cousin, a professional mechanic, and a world-class hacker.

The various mecha behemoths owned by Zhonghai City were basically designed and manufactured by her.

Zhuang Ying's biggest dream is to build a mecha Gundam that can fly into the sky.

There may still be some hope before the end.

But in the end times, limited by resources and technology, the possibilities become increasingly lower.

"The witch refused."

Chen Ming said: "How is your technology for reading human brain memories going?"

Zhuang Ying shook his head: "The progress is limited. It is difficult to read it simply by implanting a chip. I need the cooperation of more people with mental abilities, preferably those related to dreams and memories."

Chen Ming said: "I will help you pay attention."

Zhuang Ying said: "The technology possessed by the witch is obviously better than that of Laoshu Town. Brother, what are you going to do?"

Chen Ming said: "Get them."

Zhuang Ying said: "It is dangerous to fight the witch head-on, but I heard from the intelligence personnel that there is a girl who is evolving next to the witch. We can use the tactic of attacking in the east and attacking in the west to catch this girl."

"By controlling this girl, fighting the witch will become much easier."

Chen Ming thought for a while and said: "Okay! Before that, I decided to attack Laoshu Town first, just in time to help you grab some more experimental materials."

Zhuang Ying was puzzled: "Attack now? We suffered more than 20000 casualties in this earthquake..."

Chen Ming said: "Because we have suffered a lot of losses, we urgently need a war to boost our morale. While Laoshu Town is busy with disaster relief, it is easier for us to fight and win."

"The beating hurts Laoshu Town, and our morale increases. When we go to find the witch again, Laoshu Town won't have time to cause trouble."

Zhuang Ying said: "Okay, I will check the steel beast."

After several months of getting along, Zhuang Ying understood that no one could change what her cousin Chen Ming had decided, so she stopped trying to persuade him.

Chen Ming said: "When we get the technology that can stabilize grain production, we won't need to go to war everywhere."

By then, the entire Zhonghai City, including Laoshu Town, will be theirs.

"Send them a message and we'll leave in two hours."

"I'm going too this time."

Zhuang Ying said.

Chen Ming shook his head: "As before, you guard the house."

Zhuang Ying hesitated and said, "Okay."

Two hours later, several ten-meter-tall steel giants came out of the underground with a huge roar and began to march towards Laoshu Town.

All the grief that should have been caused by the loss of a loved one was transformed into hatred and conquest against Laoshu Town.

Chen Ming took one look at these people and was very satisfied.

……

Almond tree enchantment.

Su Miao was holding the book, feeling a little uneasy. She always felt that something was going to happen.

Is Chen Ming going to bring people to kill him after he returns to Zhonghai City?

After all, the negotiations between the two sides failed.

Su Miao was even more outspoken during this negotiation and wanted to kill Chen Ming.

She didn't know what kind of person Chen Ming was, but she knew what she would do if such a thing happened. She would kill him as soon as possible.

But there was no reserve of purple fireballs in the magic space, so she hesitated.

When they decided to take action, a big earthquake suddenly broke out, and the terrifying ground cracks prevented the conflict that was about to break out.

Su Miao stood up holding the sycamore wood staff and glanced at the sleeping Lin Jiujiu. She wanted to do one thing. She wanted to go to the trading area and kill the person in charge of Zhonghai City who had been planning an attack here.

Now that this is over, I believe there will be a lot of corpses in the trading area. If one undead goes down, all of them will be fighting power.

Or go directly to Zhonghai City?

After the big earthquake, there must be more corpses in Zhonghai City.

She can completely use the resurrection of the dead to make these corpses crawl out of the ground on their own.

Su Miao shook her head, wondering how she could have such dangerous thoughts.

Let’s wait until there are life-saving purple fireballs in the magic space.

I hope Lin Jiujiu can wake up soon. No matter where he goes, the dream world will open and pull everyone within the dream into the dream world.

In the real world, the undead are arranged to search for sleeping people, killing them one by one, very quickly.

[My ideas are becoming more and more dangerous. 】

Su Miao quickly dismissed this thought.

Not to mention anything else, it would take an hour or two just to go to the trading area, and you could only walk, let alone go to the distant Zhonghai City. If you don't have 10 hours, don't even think about it.

Unless she has the light skills in fantasy martial arts, such as Dai Zong, the magical Taibao in "Water Margin", he can travel eight hundred miles a day. If converted, his speed is 40 kilometers per hour, which is the speed of ordinary martial arts.

Su Miao watched a fantasy martial arts drama video in which several innate masters talked about the speed of Qing Gong and asked how long it would take to travel 30 miles using Qing Gong.

The first one said 15 minutes. Calculated, his speed was 60 kilometers per hour.

The second one said 7.5 minutes. To convert, his speed was 120 kilometers per hour.

The third one said it took less than 5 minutes. Calculated, his speed was at least 180 kilometers per hour, which was terrifying.

According to the setting in that fantasy martial arts drama, it is unimaginable that there are even faster high-speed trains that are catching up to the pre-apocalyptic top speed of 900 kilometers per hour.

If Su Miao had such speed, he could reach the trading area and Zhonghai City in the blink of an eye.
