Chapter 464： The lost city wall

"Extra! Extra! Devil massacre in the southern region! 300,000 refugees are homeless! Extra! Extra!" At the intersection of a slightly old street, a newspaper boy waved the newspaper in his hand, screaming frantically.

From time to time, pedestrians pass by him, throw him a coin, and then take a newspaper from his shoulder bag, walk forward, and lower his head to read the contents carefully.

This headline is still very popular. Although many people have seen the morning news, reading the newspaper is still a pastime, and some people will buy it, or some people are willing to get some current affairs news from this relatively "old" way.

Although newspapers have just been invented for a few years, they are still beginning to be eliminated. Today's newspapers have been overshadowed by television news and the emerging Internet, and have become a specific hobby of a specific group of people.

Seeing that his voice is better, the newsboy also sold his newspapers harder: "Take people as food! The Bameshir area is occupied by demons! It's terrible! Come buy it!"

His shouts attracted more curious people. Although TV sets are now beginning to become popular, there are still more civilians in this neighborhood, and there are not many people who have spare money to buy a TV set.

On the newspaper, in a photo from the front line of the battlefield, among the ruins, a few civilians who fled were extremely nervous, and the eyes looking at the camera were full of fear and despair.

On the huge boldface, the title is shocking, and the subtitle also makes people see that the hairy demon feeds on humans in the southern region, and the blood flows into rivers in the Bamehir area.

Bathed in the sunshine of peace, people who had almost never heard of a tragic war in the past five years gathered together in twos and threes, shaking their heads and sighing at the newspaper.

Although they are still not wealthy, they have already solved their food and clothing compared to their previous lives, and even have spare money to buy clothes.

These civilians no longer need to worry about not having enough food, and no longer need to worry about clothing or covering their bodies. Although they can only live in small apartments, their lives have improved too much for them.

So they are not only familiar with those distant terrifying terms, but also cherish the beauty of the present. After their personal comparison, they are convinced that they are living in a great empire worthy of allegiance.

"My God, they actually cannibalized people, so they must be wiped out..." a civilian read the newspaper and said with emotion.

Another civilian nodded, agreeing with his neighbor's opinion: "Isn't it? Thinking about that, it feels terrible... This is a strange thing, this is clearly the devil! It must be burned to death!

A car was passing by on the road. The radio in the car was broadcasting the morning news and these terrible things were spoken word by word by the announcer, making the people in the car very nervous.

Now everyone is so rich and rich, but don't come to a group of terrible man-eating monsters to ruin everyone's life, then it will really be over.

No one wants to lose the current life, so everyone is very sensitive to the topic of "monster invasion".

In the car, the young rich man sitting in the back seat sighed, asked the driver to help turn off the radio, and looked out the window with some worry.

Now this empire can be said to be really very powerful, but many things are still not so reassuring.

For example, the city is getting bigger and bigger, and it has been expanded to ten times and one hundred times before. The city of Seris has even been big enough to cover almost the entire territory of Seris.

And these expanding cities did not build any fortifications at all, and even the original fortifications were demolished due to the shortage of land.

Take Serris as an example. The original anti-aircraft artillery positions, city walls, and searchlights are now located in the mansion area within a ring of gold.

These places have long gone without those cold reinforced concrete towers, towering artillery, and heavy city walls.

Instead, there are wide streets, beautiful green plants, and buildings rising from the ground. These things can't fight, and they don't seem to have any defensive capabilities.

The only thing that seems to be gratifying is that the underground bunkers in these cities are very complete, with underground blocks, bustling subways and underground shopping malls. Most of them can be used as air-raid shelters, but also take into account the function of some reserve materials.

What makes people nervous is that if the demon breaks through the border and defeats the field troops fighting far away in a foreign country, then these big cities have almost no defensive capabilities, at least it looks like this...

There are no walls or trenches here, and everything that restricts the development of the city seems to have been demolished.

The troops stationed on the fringe of the city are so pitiful that most of the time, you can't even see these soldiers who are only trained in closed training. Mobile terminal::

In addition to the air force that can be seen occasionally for training, there are also huge floating transport ships that are not moving quickly, and ordinary people don't even feel the existence of war.

Many soldiers can even go home, spend a few months of vacation with their relatives, and then return to the front line to fight. How can this be called a state of war?

"Look at this group of people... If the devil invades Ailan Hill, they will all be eaten... Our business will be ruined, and this place will become a **** on earth." The young rich man thought a lot and suddenly said to himself Language.

He might be talking to his driver, but the driver drove intently. After a while, he considered his tone and replied, "As long as you are safe, Master. We can leave Dossnar and go to Seris."

In the eyes of his driver, Dossenal is already a very safe and great city. It has expanded tenfold in the past two years. The roads are leveled and there are high-rise buildings everywhere, and the pedestrians on the streets follow one another. , It's a world of difference compared to before.

Since Ailan Hill occupied this place, war seems to be a distant term. No one believes that the enemy will come here, because the nearest enemy has been hit in the Flanno River Valley.

"You don't understand... You don't understand..." The young rich man still has the vision. He felt that once the troops on the border of Ailan Hill were wiped out by the enemy, the other side would drive straight in and none of the cities behind were safe. Insured.

But he still didn't say this, because the other party was just his driver, just a subordinate who was not on the same level as him.

It seems that it is necessary to shift the business that I run from the south to the north. At least you can buy a double insurance, in case something goes wrong, you can still save half of your net worth...

It's just the land in the north...the price is really exaggerated and scary. I heard that it’s too expensive for humans. If you rashly transfer your industry to a part of the north, shareholders may not be willing.

"Hey..." Thinking of this, he sighed and shook his head slightly. In his opinion, those are just a bunch of idiots who only care about their immediate interests.

He was thinking here, the car over there has already entered his company gate. Outside the gate, people at work are still in an endless stream, here is still heaven, no matter the distance has become hell.

Out of sight, the dwarf’s Ironforge is building the 15th floating transport ship, and even more similar floating transport ships are under construction at the same time.

At the same time in Serris, the second floating warship has begun to enter service testing, far away in the arsenal of Tubao, the third floating warship has also been built...Soon these warships will be put into use, forming the original idea Yes, Ailan Hill’s Sky Fleet.

Compared with the troops deployed on the periphery, the combat effectiveness of the core area of ​​Ailan Hill is actually not weak at all, but it is hidden under the benefits of economic recovery, and it is not so easy to be noticed.

Among other things, just look at the more and more super **** puppets that have begun to become less valuable, as well as those deeply buried, terrifying and more and more nuclear weapons, you know Ai Lanxi In fact, Seoul did not relax army building at all.

Not only did it not relax, it actually strengthened greatly. In countless laboratories, Ailan Hill's large-scale destruction weapons have actually been developed in an endless stream, many of which are very targeted and terrifying weapons.

For example, Ailan Hill is studying genetic weapons against demons. Once they are successfully developed, they can use a wide range of infectious diseases to destroy countless demonic forces.

This weapon has been tested on the Devil Dog for a long time, but it has not yet been fully developed.

For another example, the mountain that is preparing to launch into the sky... If you compare it, it is a terrorist existence comparable to hundreds or even thousands of nuclear weapons.

Once the thing is successfully put, maybe the devil in one direction will be completely wiped out, and even the ashes will not be left...

All that Ailan Hill reduced was conventional troops, and none of the truly cutting-edge weapon development plans slowed down the speed of development.

Including individual equipment, heavy weapons, and even new fighters, Ailan Hill is constantly stocking technology.

Even, some laboratories are studying the improvement of human genes. This direction seems a bit ahead, but because of the existence of magicians, many people believe in human genetic enhancement, and they have invested a lot of energy in research.

In short, Ailan Hill is far from falling to the point of being strong outside. On the contrary, it is gathering greater strength and preparing to give all allies and all enemies a big "surprise" when it breaks out next time. .
