I Have a City in a Different World
Chapter 306: All living beings are like ants, the truth is terrible
In the center of Tomb City, many people heard the sound of gunfire and felt uncontrollable fear in their hearts.
Although the military has promised to protect the safety of the citizens of Grave City, making a promise does not necessarily mean that it can be fulfilled.
Having seen the ferocity of ghouls, people are worried that the monsters will break through the defense line.
When night falls, many people are watching intently.
When they saw the long line of lights being swallowed up, people's hearts suddenly sank, knowing that what they were most worried about had happened.
The line of defense established by the military has not achieved the expected results. The fierce monster has successfully broken through the defense.
The disaster that happened two days ago will soon be repeated in Tomb City, and it is unknown how many people will die.
Accompanied by curses and cries of misery and despair, the citizens of Graveyard City closed their doors tightly.
Turn on all the lights, hold various weapons, and silently pray for safety.
They had no control over what happened next and could only pray for good luck.
"All Grave City residents should return to their homes immediately..."
At this moment, harsh broadcasts were heard over the Grave City, asking residents to return home, turn on all the lights, and never run around.
That's the only thing the authorities can do so far.
Various defensive methods prepared in advance are extremely ineffective when facing extraordinary monsters, and cannot stop the ghoul's attack at all.
The army that vowed to protect Tomb City has now been completely defeated, and even the rear command has lost contact.
It is impossible to announce such news, otherwise it will only cause greater panic. With the official helpless, the people of Grave City can only rely on themselves.
Resign yourself to fate and live or die as fate brings.
The street where Tang Zhen's shop is located is blocked by two iron troughs, which are made by cutting and welding waste oil barrels.
In the iron trough that blocked the street, there were two twine ropes as thick as arms, which had been completely soaked with fuel.
At both ends of this rope are two large oil drums filled with pre-purchased fuel.
When the rope is ignited, like two large oil lamps, a blazing wall of fire rises into the sky.
The burning flame barrier can effectively block ghouls.
This method alone cannot guarantee absolute safety, but it is undoubtedly much safer than ordinary residential buildings.
Not to mention that there are many burning oil barrels in the middle of the street. The fire and flames can bring enough sense of security.
As flames rose on the streets, many nearby residents gathered, hoping to seek shelter.
Although he had weapons and bright flashlights in his hands, he obviously lacked a sense of security.
They also have a serious lack of confidence in their own defense and feel that the streets are safer at the moment.
Tang Zhen did not drive away such seekers, nor did he take the opportunity to put forward any conditions.
There is also no guarantee that the safety of these people will be protected.
Not long after, the roar of monsters came from the street, and soon the ghoul's green eyes appeared in the shadows.
Both ghouls are very strong.
They hid in the darkness and peeped, roaring from their mouths, obviously showing unwillingness.
The monsters have a certain intelligence and know that there is a man-made barrier in front of them, with the purpose of preventing them from approaching.
The threat posed by the flame barricade caused the ghouls to temporarily shift their targets and launch attacks on nearby shops and residences.
Their hard and sharp claws can easily break wooden doors, and even metal doors cannot stop them.
With its huge and flexible body, it can also jump up and down like a cat, and can climb over walls and onto roofs with just one jump.
Soon there were screams and screams coming from nearby houses. The lights of some houses went out, and flames rose in some houses.
Some people panicked and jumped out of the windows and ran wildly on the streets.
The area of the Grave City is not small, but the number of ghouls rushing in is not very large. Most of the ghouls move in groups, but not every street has them.
When the ghouls rushed into the street, the gunmen on the rooftops were already shooting to kill them.
However, the ghoul is agile in movement and its own defense is quite strong. Even if a bullet hits the body, it still cannot cause much damage.
On the contrary, because of the injury, he becomes more ferocious and violent, running rampant like a bull.
Unless it is a weapon with a high rate of fire and extremely strong penetration, it will be difficult to effectively kill the ghoul.
However, the reality is that ordinary people rarely receive shooting training and cannot hit the target accurately.
Besides, getting weapons is not an easy task.
Ordinary people can only obtain simple weapons from around them. Apart from getting some psychological comfort, they have no effect at all when facing ghouls.
Even the military cannot prepare those special and powerful weapons in a short time, let alone expect them to fall into the hands of civilians.
The people gathered on the street watched the ghouls wreaking havoc in front of their eyes, and their hearts were full of anxiety and fear.
But facing the fierce monsters, they were really helpless. If they dared to step forward, they would be killed.
Many people prayed secretly, hoping that God would help solve the problem.
Tang Zhen stood quietly at the door, looking at the fire in the distance with a thoughtful expression.
Disasters certainly make people fearful and despairing, and bring about scenes of devastation, but just like wildfires igniting a prairie fire, there is likely to be life in the disasters.
At this moment, Tang Zhen felt something strange, and the concentration of energy in the world seemed to be a little higher.
An ordinary practitioner would definitely not be able to sense such subtle changes, but they would definitely not be able to hide it from Tang Zhen.
Although it is only a slight improvement, it can have an immediate effect and allow ordinary people with qualifications to step into the extraordinary.
Tang Zhen didn't know if there were similar changes in other places, but this was indeed the case in Tomb City.
This also made him secretly surprised. Does the improvement of the energy of heaven and earth require human life as a sacrifice?
If this is the case, it would be a bit outrageous.
The knowledge imparted by Lou Cheng mentioned that the increase or decrease in the energy of heaven and earth is related to rules and has nothing to do with ordinary creatures.
Unless the rules of this world are controlled by invisible forces, when creatures encounter great danger, some kind of protection mechanism will be triggered.
For example, practitioners with extraordinary power can appear among ordinary creatures, who can fight and resolve disasters.
After the disaster has passed, it will gradually enter the Age of Ending Dharma, and practitioners will gradually disappear from the world.
To use a simple analogy, disasters are diseases and injuries, and practitioners are medicines and immune systems, which will always appear when needed.
The more Tang Zhen thought about it, the more he felt that this might really be the case. The disaster in Tomb City was not a natural disaster, but was caused intentionally by someone.
The real culprit behind the scenes is the game system that fought with Tang Zhen.
The player may be a strong dose of medicine. The original purpose was to cure diseases and save people, but due to Tang Zhen's intervention, the expected "rescue" effect was not achieved.
The system took a step back and began to train the aborigines to become practitioners. The aborigines were obviously easier to control than the fucked-up players.
If you want to awaken the indigenous people, you must increase the concentration of the energy of heaven and earth. This is a link that cannot be bypassed at all.
When an extinct disaster breaks out, causing a loss of life, the protection mechanism is activated, and the concentration of spiritual energy is also enhanced.
The sudden disaster gave the system the best opportunity to take action, and it could blame the underworld for any problems.
No one thought at all that it was doing everything secretly.
Tang Zhen sighed secretly, if this was really the case, the aborigines would have no choice but to admit that they were unlucky.
Could it be that all this deliberate effort, regardless of the loss of life, was just to collect soul crystals?
If this is the case, what is the ultimate purpose of the system?
When he finds an answer, he is often followed by more questions. This feeling makes Tang Zhen very unhappy.
He decided not to think about it for the time being and let everything take its course so as not to affect his gaming experience.
