Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Crunch... crunch...

The entrance to the subway, which had been filled with gunfire and bombardment, now contained only flesh mixed with bones and the sound of eating.

These brave soldiers, whose names were engraved with Chinese characters on their nameplates, only persisted for half a minute in the face of the alien wave before they were mercilessly swallowed up.

I saw the alien species directly swallowing the dying soldiers with broken limbs and mechanical skeletons into their mouths, chewing them and then swallowing them into their abdomen.

It seemed that because he was preoccupied with dealing with the soldiers, the alien did not immediately notice the fortifications and the numerous time bombs placed in the corners of the underground passages.

Of course, there is no conspicuous red light countdown on the appearance of these bombs, they just look like ordinary iron boxes.

When all the soldiers are swallowed by the alien species...

Boom! Boom!!

Fire spread everywhere, engulfing everything in the blink of an eye.

The fireball even poured into the subway platform along the passage.

Following the flames and fireballs was a shock wave that could shatter a human body into pieces, while simultaneously destroying the subway entrance and everything nearby into ashes.

——

…

boom! !

In the tunnel deep underground, a wave-like earthquake was felt.

Wow! !

Dust, dirt, and a large amount of debris fell from above, which also caused the already dim lights to either explode one by one, or start to flicker due to poor contact.

Cough...cough!

Shh!

And here, as the smoke and dust filled the air, several coughs and hisses resounded.

It turned out that there were more than a dozen surviving citizens hiding in the substation room on the right side of the tunnel, and judging by their faces, most of them were junior high school students between the ages of 13 and 15.

The remaining three men and women, judging by their appearance and age, should be the teachers of this group of junior high school students.

The shock was fleeting, and the transformer room, which was not spacious and narrow, fell into silence again.

Hush...hiss!

But soon, the silence was interrupted by a slight sob.

Some junior high school students who were relatively young and courageous were on the verge of collapse, but they did not dare to cry loudly, so they had to shut up tightly, but the tears could not be restrained from falling.

no way.

Even the teachers who are adults are frightened, not to mention these immature children?

The city where they were located, the defense line where Gao Tiankuo led his troops, and even the entire Eurasian continent were all subjected to large-scale raids by alien species from west to east.

The defense lines in Asia and the Middle East were torn apart almost in an instant, and the city they were in was located in southwest Asia. It originally belonged to Armenia, but since the establishment of the United Human Government, it has also belonged to the benchmark Xia Kingdom in Asia. Governance.

This is why the soldiers guarding the subway entrance all have name tags with Chinese characters.

Not long ago, they were dispersed by the chaotic crowd and encountered a tank-level alien species. Fortunately, they encountered the group of soldiers who had sacrificed their lives.

But the entire city has been surrounded by alien species, and military and civilian airports were targeted by alien species at the first moment of the raid.

With no hope of evacuation, they had no choice but to hide in this subway tunnel. The soldiers quickly built a simple defense at the entrance of the subway, preparing to fight the aliens until the end.

Now…

Although the teachers didn't know much about military affairs, no matter how new they were, they knew that the earthquake just now meant that all the soldiers had fallen.

At the same time, this also means that the chance of them escaping from here is infinitely close to zero.

Of course, teachers will not tell the truth.

Children, teachers. The middle-aged teacher, who looked like the director at first glance, calmed down and lowered his voice, soothingly saying: Those soldiers have won a hard-won chance for us to survive. We should make good use of it. Weeping decadently here.

Okay, wipe your tears, children, you will definitely make it out alive.

After the words fell, the children's sobbing was relieved.

After all, this director can be regarded as the representative of kindness in the school.

Director Konyang, do you... have any good suggestions? a female teacher asked.

Haha, of course. Konyang smiled, took out a military pistol, and continued: That platoon leader Lin just gave me this.

So...? The female teacher was still confused.

Alien species have extremely developed hearing and vision, so... I will be alone, escape to the west as much as possible, and try to make some big noise.

As Konyang spoke, his eyes swept across the female teacher and another male teacher, and then looked at the confused students:

Teacher Rahman, you are the class teacher of these children, you know them better, and Teacher Iben is the physical education teacher of our school.

The child... is left to you two. At the end of the sentence, Konyang sighed heavily, and handed the pistol to the physical education teacher named Iben.

Director, this?!

Iben! Leave the last chance to your child! Also, you are the strongest among us, don't shirk it!

The physical education teacher thought that the director who volunteered to be the bait was going to use a pistol to protect himself, but who knew that the director actually left his only weapon with the children!

The physical education teacher wanted to refuse, but after seeing the director's unyielding gaze, he had no choice but to accept it with wet eyes.

Who doesn't want to live?

Anyway, there is no way that he would take the initiative to be a bait. Being selfish is instinctive. However, after seeing that the other party still maintains the brilliance of humanity even though he is in the quagmire of despair...

Don't worry, director, I will protect everyone.

hehe.

Konyang raised his hand and patted the physical education teacher on the shoulder, and then rubbed the heads of several crying students. Then, amid the reluctant whispers and choking of the crowd, he resolutely opened the metal door, and his figure quickly disappeared. in the dark.

When...when...

Soon, there was a faint metallic noise from the west end of the tunnel, like a steel pipe hitting the track.

Boom...boom...

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of intensive noise.

It seemed that the collapse caused by the explosion did not stop the alien species for long, and these biological weapons were already sweeping through the tunnel in an orderly manner.

Waited for a few seconds.

The physical education teacher held the gun in his right hand, pushed the door again with his left hand, leaned out half of his body to observe for a moment, and then waved his hand after confirming that the left and right sides were temporarily safe, indicating that the female head teacher and the children could come out.

Next, the children lined up in two rows, while the two teachers trotted toward the east subway exit, one behind the other.

There were no surprises along the way.

I don’t know whether it was because the alien species were anxious to push inland, or whether the director who acted as a decoy still played a role, but anyway, the group of them successfully reached the terminal platform.

They helped each other climb up to the platform, and when they came to the escalator that had long been out of service, everyone did not dare to breathe.

Because the top represents fresh air, and it also represents the exit where there is a high possibility of encountering an army of alien species.

He looked up.

The physical education teacher held the pistol tightly, of course, without a golden finger. After all, he was also a military enthusiast.

Rahman. As he stepped forward, he warned: If it takes more than two minutes for me to go up...you can continue to hide down there for as long as you can, and survive until the last moment.

Okay. The female head teacher nodded solemnly.

After saying that, the physical education teacher quickly climbed up two or three steps in one step, reaching the top of the escalator in just a few seconds, and his figure disappeared as he went forward.

Looking at the empty space above.

An older boy suddenly became sad: Director Konyang said the same thing...and now Mr. Iben...

The boy did not continue, but it was not difficult for everyone to guess what the rest of the words were.

After all, they have been at war with alien species for so many years.

They hid on both sides of the escalator, spending their days staring at the exit above.

The head teacher, on the other hand, had cold sweat dripping from his forehead, his eyes locked on the watch on his left hand, and the sound of the pointer ticking forward was particularly harsh.

The minute hand made two complete turns...

Another half circle passed...

This indicates…

Hey! Rahman! Children! Quick! Come up!!

? ? ? ! ! !

Everyone was shocked by the sudden shout, and some of the timid ones almost lost their breath.

I saw the physical education teacher, who was thought to have been killed, standing on top with an excited expression. He waved his left hand vigorously to signal everyone to come up quickly.

The group of people were stunned at first.

teacher!

Teacher Iben!

Then, a few young men who were close to the physical education teacher ran towards the exit without thinking, leaping two or three steps at a time.

Although the head teacher can't figure out what's going on, maybe human nature is so ugly that the other party wants to drag them to die together?

But it’s the end of the world, so what does it matter if it’s true or false? So she also organized the children to go through the escalator and finally escaped from the underground where they never saw the light of day.

Came outside the subway station.

Wow! So beautiful!

Teacher...could it be that we are already dead and are now...an hallucination before death?

The students gathered around the physical education teacher and head teacher were all at a loss after seeing the change.

The so-called change refers to the fact that the sky, which was originally so gloomy that no sunlight could be seen at all, is now clearing up from the clouds and revealing the sun, and a warm beam of light shines through the gaps in the remaining clouds and falls on the dilapidated city.

As for being able to tear apart clouds and stop heavy rains, the source of changing the weather is the Galaxy that emits cyan light and flows gracefully into the ground.

It is indeed beautiful, but it is also an unnatural phenomenon. Otherwise, a boy would say whether this is a imagination before death.

Soon, they saw one of the star rivers fall to the ground, causing ripples like a stone thrown on the lake surface, and then quickly swept towards their direction.

Not only the Galaxy, but also the alien species are also rushing towards the subway exit.

!

The female head teacher and all the students woke up immediately, turned around and wanted to continue running away.

Wait! The PE teacher calmed down.

As soon as they finished speaking, they saw from a distance that Galaxy quickly swallowed up all the alien species. Some alien species were still struggling fiercely, but the struggle was in vain. The alien species had no room for resistance in front of Galaxy.

but…

Galaxy can devour alien species, wouldn't it also devour them?

Some smart students reacted instantly, but seeing that the physical education teacher still remained calm, they had the courage to continue standing where they were.

Soon, when they were only a hundred meters away, Galaxy suddenly slowed down, like a turbulent drinking water, turning into a slow-flowing stream in an instant, and it was still about to come into contact with everyone. Diversion.

Wow! It's so beautiful!

God! Is this really not a fantasy before we die? Let me try!

It hurts! Why are you pinching me?!

In an instant, the playful nature of the students returned, and the tone could be described as extremely cheerful.

The rest of your life!

Coupled with the picturesque scenery in front of me, even if I don't understand why, there is nothing more worthy of celebration than being able to continue to live.

And upon closer inspection, the students discovered that the so-called Galaxy is actually composed of endless fireflies.

It's just that these fireflies are extremely small and cannot be observed with the naked eye, and their appearance is not flattering, not to mention cute, as if they have wings...

Mechanical spider?

Within a few seconds, the river of mechanical spiders was about to leave them. Some branches scattered across the city, while others rushed directly into the subway. It seemed that they were preparing to eliminate all alien species once and for all.

When the tide receded, they finally understood that this was the real aftermath of the disaster!

As for the sudden Galaxy Flood, it felt like a miracle from heaven. How else could we explain it?

children!

suddenly!

Everyone heard a familiar shout.

Looking back, he saw the director, who was in ragged clothes and with many scratches on his body, limping towards them while waving his hands.

teacher!

director!

——

at the same time.

If you look down from a high place, it is not difficult to find that there are countless survivors leaving buildings and subways.

If you go further up...

If you stay away from the clouds and point directly to the sky...

Even if you observe it hundreds or thousands of kilometers away from the earth's surface, you can find that the entire Earth 109 is emitting a more dazzling light blue light than before.

The surface of the earth is washed by the Galaxy, and even the ocean is gradually filtered by the dazzling light.

This scene coincides with what Titus, Vulcan, and Anakin said before, that the threat level of alien species will change from red to green.

In fact, there is no miracle from the sky as imagined by the teachers and students. The mechanical spider is the attacking type among the many types of nano-robots in the main universe.

The lift formations that Vulcan and Anakin saw were transport formations that acted according to Robert's orders. They went to the designated low-Earth orbit to drop a large number of submunitions, and the artificial intelligence Vesta was responsible for the detailed control.

According to the current trend, it will take less than two hours to wipe out the alien species on the surface of Earth 109. After all, nanorobots can easily penetrate deep into the ground, drill through rocks, and can also rely on any material they encounter to split themselves apart.

What's wrong with the small space door?

For the main universe, as long as there is a space gate that allows them to set foot in other universes, they can implement an extinction order on any planet.

Of course, what Robert issued was not an extermination order, but just a trivial nano bombing, so Vesta was asked to restrict the nano robots' actions and self-division.
