MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 124 Guardian of the Earth
The junction of the big and small crosses in the city center was the most prosperous area of the Yuanjiang River in the past. The landmark building, the International Trade Building, stands in it. The 240-meter-high building stands out among the dense forest-like high-rise buildings in the city center.
Standing in the revolving restaurant at the top of the China World Trade Center, you can follow the moving track under the floor of the restaurant to have a 360-degree bird's-eye view of the entire city. Of course, that was in the past, and now you can only see a desolate and dilapidated scene in the revolving restaurant.
"Head, why hasn't everyone arrived yet?" The young man kicked away the corpse under his feet and walked back and forth impatiently.
The Awakened Council was supposed to start half an hour ago, but someone was late, which made him very anxious.
"Those big guys are not in a hurry, you are in a hurry." Another young man he called the head rolled his eyes and scolded, "The emperor is not in a hurry, the **** is in a hurry."
None of them are Awakened, so naturally they are not qualified to participate in the Awakened Council in the lobby on the first floor. They can only observe from a distance in the revolving restaurant on the top floor, and cooperate with the front-fingered warriors on the ground to patrol the surroundings. In fact, everyone knows that their mission is to observe the enemy from a distance and watch out for the enemy's situation.
Fortunately, they were not the only ones who were treated like this. This made the two feel a lot more balanced. Looking around, the followers of the other Awakened forces were also staying on the top floor with nothing to do. There was even a deck of playing cards in this ghost place. No, there is a lot to eat, but no one dares to eat it. Who knows if it has been stained with zombie blood, viruses, etc. for such a long time.
After another ten minutes, the whining sounded again.
"People haven't come yet? It's really big enough."
"Who knows, maybe it's stuck on the road."
The rough voice fell, and twenty or thirty people laughed. This is of course a joke. In the past, the size of the cross in the International Trade Building was blocked day and night, but now where is the traffic jam possible?
"Hey, oh my shit, there's a freezer here!" The person who exclaimed immediately covered his mouth and regretted his impulse. Twenty or thirty strong men all rushed over with a snarl, vying for the freezer. The food and ice cream in it, no matter whether he will eat a bad stomach or not, as long as he eats it will not be poisoned and will not turn into a zombie, he will quickly grab it and stuff it into his mouth.
…………
In the lobby on the first floor of the International Trade Building, the useless furnishings were swept aside, and more than twenty long tables moved from the office building on the upper floor were put together like building blocks to form a huge conference table. The mottled color difference is extremely incongruous.
"Xinwu, how are you?" Qi Lie loosened the zipper of his upper leather jacket and asked his nephew sitting beside him softly.
Qi Xinwu closed his eyes, the panorama within one kilometer appeared in his mind, then he opened his eyes and shook his head with a wry smile: "Not yet."
"Tsk." Qi Lie frowned and looked at the person sitting at the conference table again.
Liu Yuanzhou looked straight ahead with no expression on his face; Yang Yuechen looked at his nose, nose and heart, and the old **** was there; Xie Chenghao, who could summon a light curtain to resist the attack, was talking with a strange female awakened beside him; he was hiding in the refuge camp before and refused to accept The enlisted awakened Shao Xiangnan looked around.
In addition to Qi Lie and Qi Xinwu, a total of six awakened people from the 258 brigade have all arrived.
Sitting across from Qi Lie is a young man with long hair, with a cold look on his face, arrogant and arrogant, and what is even more strange is that he carries a disproportionately large bow with him. Qi Lie also played with bows and crossbows when he was young. Naturally, he knew that such a special bow could hardly be used by a human body. It seemed that the opponent's ability was related to bows and arrows.
A middle-aged woman who looks similar to Qi Lie's age sits on the right hand of the arrogant young man. She has heavy crow's feet.
Looking back, there are five awakened people, four males, two middle-aged and two young people, and the last one is a teenager who looks like a girl, and their expressions are more or less displeased.
After all, except for a very small number of kind-hearted people, most of the other Awakened people within their own sphere of influence are unequivocal overlords. , My heart is swollen, how can I get used to others making them wait?
"One, two, three, three plus five, eight." Qi Liemo calculated the number of strange awakeners who were invited to attend the meeting. There were eight people in total, five men and three women.
Only eight people. Qi Lie sneered inwardly, Liu Yuanzhou didn't speak, their mood was nothing.
The combat effectiveness of the Awakened team cannot be calculated purely by numbers. Don't look at the fact that there are only six people on the 258th Brigade. Among them are Yang Yuechen, who has auxiliary abilities and almost no combat effectiveness, and Xie Chenghao, who is afraid of battle. If we really want to fight, Qi Lie I am confident that the Falcon Squad can wipe out the eight Awakeners and all their subordinates within three minutes.
Because the Awakened are also divided into superiors and inferiors, the Falcon Squad, which has experienced hundreds of battles and cooperates with each other tacitly, can maximize the abilities of the Awakened, and cooperate with the elite soldiers, equipped with flexible and changeable tactics and powerful weapons. , crushing this group of rabble in minutes.
"Come on, what are you doing!" A man with a **** face and a butcher-like face was patted on the conference table in front of him. The paint fell off, the wood chips were flying, and the solid wood table was photographed with a dent. .
The man seemed very satisfied with the force he showed, and then he questioned Liu Yuanzhou: "Sir Liu, we are all gathered here to give you face, and if the rest of the people don't come, it won't give us all face, so why wait. They? Why don't we start first, don't wait for the late shrew."
Liu Yuanzhou didn't move at all, just staring at the front door so quietly, without looking up at him or responding.
The man felt humiliated, angered, and stood up with a flushed face, but when everyone turned their attention to him, he thought about the front-fingered soldiers with guns and ammunition outside the door, and then looked at the few on Liu Yuanzhou's left. The subtle expressions on the faces of the awakened people from the 258 brigade were stunned for a moment, and then they slowly took their seats, not to mention their actions, not even daring to say harsh words.
The middle-aged woman who had been shaking the tea in her cup finally put down the cup in her hand, showed a kind smile like an aunt next door, and calmed down the atmosphere for the man: "Maybe the road is unfamiliar, and the journey will be delayed for a while. Anyway, we have nothing to hurry, It doesn't matter if you wait any longer, you gentlemen are open-minded, so don't care about it."
The man made two muffled muffled hums when he got down the steps, and stopped talking. Instead, the girl said yin and yang, "I don't know about Guomao? You can get lost if you put the cross, and I don't know where the hillbilly came from."
Except for the arrogant young man holding a longbow, the rest of the Awakened showed sarcastic smiles. They might not really think that the late arrivals were country bumpkins, but it was really rude to leave everyone like this, and they didn't have much affection in their hearts.
Qi Lie couldn't control his emotions and snorted coldly. The one who was late was the Dawning Team who had saved his life, the warriors who were willing to go out of the safe zone to hunt mutants like a falcon, and fought heroically for the people of Yuanjiang. And these people who are lucky enough to awaken their superpowers, one by one, guarding their own one-third of an acre of land as small landlords, unwilling to join the army, and dare not take responsibility, are no different from moths, what qualifications do they have to judge Dawn?
The sarcastic girl was wearing heavy smoky makeup, dressed in dark Gothic clothes, and had a hot temper. As soon as she heard Qi Lie hum, she immediately slurped, slapped the table and cursed, "Fuck you. Humph? What is wrong with my mother? If you have any opinions, you can bring it up and say it out loud, hum hum, hum your mother!"
Sitting next to her, the young man who came with her quickly grabbed her, and Qilie smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, my sister has such a personality, she is young, don't take it offense, I will compensate you."
"Why?" The girl was still struggling, swearing, and the boy who apologized had to cover her mouth with his hand and reprimanded in a low voice, "Auntie, I beg you, stop making trouble, go back and talk about it."
After he finished speaking, he raised his head and smiled and said, "I'm really sorry. I'll donate two carts of bread to the refuge camp after a while, but they haven't expired."
Qi Lie looked away, noncommittal, how could he care about a child in the rebellious period with a big man who was running around.
"Uncle." Qi Xinwu pulled Lazilie's clothes.
"I know, don't worry, I'm not that stingy."
"No, uncle, here they come."
I don’t need to say more in one heart, at this time the deafening roar of the motor has come from a distance.
Everyone in the hall looked up.
Twenty heavy-loaded locomotives drive the way, with towering bodies and strange shapes, showing their powerful force everywhere; twenty revolving machine guns and twenty knight knives held high refract sunlight, dazzling and dazzling; The black cloak was held up by the airflow generated by the high-speed movement, and the white long sword on the back of the cloak danced in the wind.
In the middle of the two teams of locomotives, three armored vehicles slammed into a rampage and flew at full speed. All the cars, roadblocks, and sundries blocked in front were all overturned and rolled to both sides of the road, as if the subjects encountered the king on the road, they retreated.
The loud speakers mounted on the outside of the car sent out music, and with the rhythm of the roaring motor, the glass windows of the buildings on both sides of the road shook slightly.
Qi Xinwu fell into a sluggishness. He seemed to have heard this shocking debut BGM.
