"Yeah, that's right."
While replying to Bai Lanxin, Shen Qiu tapped a few times on the bracelet and entered the news section of the Tianming Workers APP.
There was a striking countdown displayed on it, 43 minutes left before the nuclear mine was dropped.
"There's still a little over half an hour left."
Shen Qiu took a look and said.
"The amount of energy dropped this time is not small. Even if it succeeds, the city of Black Plains will probably be half destroyed."
Bai Lanxin raised her bracelet and started brushing.
At this moment, hundreds of millions of people on the entire earth are paying attention to this matter in real time.
Most people in the Red Alliance were praying for the Black Plains City, and of course most people in the Gray Alliance and the Blue Alliance were just watching the fun.
There were also a lot of random posts and comments, which led to a war of words.
Many members of the Red League climbed over the wall and started cursing at them.
However, at this moment, the Tianming Workers APP suddenly updated an urgent message.
"Latest news: The Gray Alliance's famous economic city, Akensevi, was attacked by an unknown insect monster at 6 o'clock this evening. After 6 hours of fighting, Akensevi finally announced that it would abandon the city."
This news flash is very simple, with only a few dozen words.
But it caused a strong reaction.
Countless Red Alliance netizens left messages on it.
"Haha, am I reading this right? Six hours, the city was abandoned in six hours!"
"I am dying of laughter. It is really the law of nature that will bring good luck to all. Those idiots from the Gray Alliance were just laughing at us, but now their second largest economic city has been taken over."
"A moment of silence! Haha!"
…
Shen Qiu looked at the news, raised his head in surprise and looked at Bai Lanxin and said.
"Have you seen the latest news? The second economic city of the Gray Alliance, the City of Akensevi, has fallen."
"Tsk, there's nothing strange about that. The Gray Alliance is a bunch of fence-sitters who always put profit above all else. Whenever a large-scale monster attacks a city, they will sell it out without a second thought as long as they consider whether it's worthwhile to resist."
Bai Lanxin was not surprised at all.
"True, but they are really unlucky. One moment they were laughing at us, and the next moment something bad happened to them."
"Actually, this is not a good thing. Do you have a feeling that the end of the world is coming?"
Bai Lanxin sighed, with worry in her eyes.
Shen Qiu fell silent after hearing this. He also felt that the situation was becoming increasingly pessimistic.
The two were speechless for a moment.
It won’t be long before the countdown for the throw reaches zero.
The Tianming Workers APP has opened up live broadcast footage.
Shen Qiu and Bai Lanxin both lowered their heads to watch the live broadcast and put down the skewers in their hands.
Above the city of Black Plains.
With a piercing roar, the giant bomber Hurricane flew over at high speed, followed by seven Silver Wing fighters.
At this time, it was 200 kilometers outside the city of Heiyuan.
City Lord Gu Mo stood at the observation point, his hands behind his back trembling.
Now he is helpless and can only watch the nuclear bomb being dropped and destroying the city of Black Plains.
If the mouth of the abyss is not destroyed, once all the monsters inside come out, the entire Fourth Administrative District will be destroyed and they will have no place to stay.
In fact, he also tried to reject the plan of dropping nuclear mines and find other solutions.
But it was completely useless and was directly rejected by the parliament.
“Here it comes!”
"The bombing is about to begin."
…
The officials of Heiyuan City shouted nervously.
"General Long Xiu, do you really want to do this? Is there no other way?"
City Lord Gu Mo couldn't help but ask Long Xiu again.
Long Xiu took a deep breath and said to City Lord Gu Mo.
"We have no other choice but to do this. Besides, there is no point in saying anything now. Let's just wait for the results!"
After hearing what Long Xiu said, City Lord Gu Mo felt that breathing became more and more difficult.
Just then, the bomber arrived above the mouth of the abyss.
Inside the cab, an older female officer in a colonel's uniform was performing the throwing operation.
"Disarm the safety device of the Nuclear Thunder and the Voice of Tranquility."
"Activate the nuclear mine!"
"Open the throwing port."
…
Click!
A nuclear mine with a yield of 10 million tons was activated and thrown down.
For a moment, everyone stared at the nuclear mine that was falling freely, holding their breath and not daring to breathe.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, a bright beam of light pierced through from the bottom of the abyss and directly hit the activated nuclear mine.
boom!
The destructive explosion swept across, destroying buildings on the surface of Black Plains City in large numbers.
The whole night turned into day in an instant.
"It's over!"
City Lord Gu Mo looked at this scene and collapsed to the side. He never expected that things would turn out like this. The result was even worse than expected.
The officials nearby hurried forward to assist City Lord Gu Mo, each of them shouting anxiously.
"Lord City Lord."
"Hold on, Lord City Lord."
…
Long Xiu looked at the explosion in the distance with a very ugly expression. It was obvious that the operation had failed and the situation had escalated.
An Wei was also very uncomfortable watching this scene, and she spoke to Long Xiu.
"how so?"
"I still underestimated the danger inside the abyss. This is not an attack that the monster I encountered can launch. There should be a stronger monster with a very high IQ lurking inside."
Long Xiu’s brows were almost twisted into a knot.
"What do we do now?"
"Let's take a long-term view. There's no point in continuing to throw."
"That's all we can do."
An Wei nodded. In fact, under normal circumstances, monsters would not notice the nuclear bomb. If they could actively counterattack and destroy it, their IQ must be ridiculously high.
…
At the barbecue stall in Sunny Sky City.
The corners of Shen Qiu's mouth kept twitching, and he couldn't help but speak.
"I saw it right. The nuclear mine exploded in mid-air."
"The Black Plains City is completely finished."
Bai Lanxin pressed her forehead and said in great pain.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Qiu looked at Bai Lanxin's reaction and asked a little puzzled.
"It's not that I feel uncomfortable, but I feel like the sky is falling. Black Plains City is completely destroyed. Should the Red Alliance clean up the mess?"
"That's for sure. We are all family."
"Aftercare requires money, so should we also contribute some to the aftercare fee?"
"It seems so."
"Besides, we are the closest. Regardless of whether they will be relocated to our place, as neighbors we must certainly help, right? You can't count on Missy City in the Fifth Administrative District, right? It's doomed. And if Black Plains City can't deal with those underground creatures, won't we also be impacted by the monsters?"
Bai Lanxin continued.
"Uh, my condolences."
The more Shen Qiu listened, the more headache he had, and he replied with a wry smile.
“I’m almost broke.”
Bai Lanxin was really going crazy. Her father finally saved his face and asked the Bai family for some money. Only then did life in Clear Sky City become a little better.
The current situation is probably going to return to the original state.
Shen Qiu coughed and said.
“When the time comes, things will work out.”
When Bai Lanxin heard Shen Qiu's words, she suddenly thought of something, then raised her head and looked at Shen Qiu, blinked her eyes and said.
"Shen Qiu, you seem to be quite rich, how about you lend me some?"
Shen Qiu's eyelids twitched suddenly. He had a bad feeling. But it was not easy to refuse directly, so he replied with a guilty conscience.
"You are talking nonsense. I do have a little money, but how can you be so proud of it?"
"That may not be the case."
"Okay, how much do you want to borrow? I'll give it to you if I have any."
"How about 100 billion Alliance Coins?"
Bai Lanxin blinked her eyes and asked, trying to save the situation.
Of course, there was a reason why she asked Shen Qiu to borrow money. Her cheap father asked her to get closer to Shen Qiu every day. There must be something fishy about it.
"100 billion??? Do I look like someone with that much money? And what do you need so much for?"
Shen Qiu almost jumped up. This girl was really brave enough to speak.
Even if I sold him I wouldn't get that much money.
"How much? I don't think so. The population of the main city of Clear Sky City alone is close to 100 million, which only averages out to 1,000 Alliance Coins, not to mention the population outside the city."
"No, really not. How about you sell me out?"
Shen Qiu shook his head like a rattle.
