[Yan Zan] "In short, find the time machine first!"

The BGM of this chapter: DVMN is recommended to be used together.

Accompanied by the slowly rising of the huge golden head, an indistinct sound that was suddenly distant and near, spread in the chaotic world.The voice was deep and long, and even the ground trembled when he pronounced the words.Most of the operators present couldn't understand what it was saying, only a few operators from Rhodes Island who were from the Yan Kingdom and were on the front line could recognize that it was reciting in the oldest language of the Yan Kingdom Prayer:

"The sky has an oven, the earth produces hardware, and the coldness of Hui Ye is quenched and the clouds are clear. Get up!"

What happened next almost surpassed the cognition of everyone present.

It was the wildest dreams of myth-writers and theosophists, the wrists and heels of Scourge-lords, the miracle of terror—the leaden gray clouds that had gathered over their heads toppled in an instant, and a pure golden light burst from them Water poured down like water in the crevice, just pouring on the top of the golden giant's head.The golden, empty giant face began to crack and melt down the middle.

Seeing the crack grow bigger and bigger, it finally cut off its entire face.The golden giant folded back the broken upper half of its face, pulling the hot golden juice between the cracks, as if sticking out a pair of slender and sharp fangs.

It made a high-pitched sound, like laughter or a baby crying, and the piercing metallic sharp sound swept across the entire battlefield.Franca, who rushed forward, was shocked by its sound and her ears bleed.She took a few steps back, and fell powerlessly into the arms of Razer who rushed to catch her.

It was a gigantic, terrifying, almost indescribable miracle.

It was a disaster.

White tin soldiers, black iron soldiers, thin and nimble copper soldiers, and thunderous silver soldiers.These inhuman puppets collapsed and melted under the screams of the golden head, converging into torrents of hot and viscous metal, converging towards the golden head from all directions on the battlefield.More and more clouds were broken in the sky, and black ash fluttered in the golden beam of light, and the end of the beam of light was connected with five clusters of alloy formed by the flow of metal.They beat irregularly, floating upwards in the air strangely, as if they were slowly lifted by invisible pokers.

"This is……"

The craftsman Vulcan, who was born in Minos, was standing on the edge of the battlefield at this time.She is too familiar with such a scene, this is casting!The golden light pouring down from the clouds is the flame of the furnace. Gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, the five metals blend with each other and roll in the furnace. Beating, with indescribable strength, slowly cast a huge puppet that stands upright!

And Chen, who was standing at the forefront of the battlefield, had his eyes straightened.She moved her lips, and slowly spit out a famous line from the ancient book of Yan Kingdom:

"It's true that the world is a furnace, good fortune is a workmanship; yin and yang are charcoal, and everything is copper... It's true, and the legends about 'Nian' are all true..."

Seeing that the huge puppets were about to be cast into shape, the operators distributed on the battlefield looked like wood sculptures and clay sculptures. Not to mention moving their feet, even thinking became extremely difficult.After all, that is simply an enemy beyond human imagination and comprehension.Under high-intensity mental pressure, even a warrior's steely will will temporarily go blank.The weapons of many operators have already dropped their hands and landed on the pitch-black ground, allowing their blades to be covered by the drifting black ash.

Just then, a brand new force entered the battlefield.If there is an eye that can look down from the sky above the earth, it will find that the Originium concentration monitoring devices worn by the operators on various parts of the body-maybe bracelets, leg rings, collars, one after another. lights up.When they turned on the blue light, they injected a small pulse current into the wearer's body, quickly awakening the lost consciousness of the operators.

"Ahem...Hello? Everyone, can you hear me?" A somewhat weak male voice sounded through the monitoring devices all over the battlefield.Many operators who were brought back to their senses by the electric current raised their wrists in surprise, or squatted down to check their ankles.They were required to wear this thing [-]/[-] in Rhodes Island, but no one had ever checked and discovered that there was actually a hidden sound amplifier hole hidden in this thing.

"Okay, all connected, right? Cough, cough cough." The voice coughed a few more times, and suddenly seemed to have exhausted the weakness and restlessness in the body, and became firm and powerful: "This is Rhodes Island .Everyone listen to my command—orderly evacuation!"

Doctor of Rhodes Island, join the battle!

Following the instructions sent from the monitoring device, the crowd quickly evacuated from the ground and gathered under the huge Rhodes Island land ship.Amnesiac and frail, the Doctor remains one of the most capable tacticians on the land.When he started to command, the victory was sealed.

However, what Rhodes Island had to face this time was a giant creation beyond human comprehension, so this so-called victory became "victorious escape".

"Everyone has come up, right... Cough, cough, cough, Amiya, get me a glass of water, no, give me an emergency sanity potion." The last Rhode Island operator, Yan Ke, boarded the ship Afterwards, the doctor coughed violently from everyone's monitoring devices.The three chain elevators were slowly ascending, and the last group of operators standing in the elevators couldn't help but look out.There, a huge alloy golem has been cast to take shape.It has an extremely rough torso and limbs, but each hand has six fingers, and the huge head is slightly concave and convex, forming lines similar to facial features.Its weight is so great that as soon as it hit the ground, the stratum that had already been torn apart was further shattered by it. One of the huge cracks snaked like a snake, crossing the battlefield covered by black and gray in an instant, straight to the ground. The direction where Po Rhodes Island is stationed!

"Engineering Group [-] pull up the elevator as soon as possible. Engineering Group [-], no need to wait for warm-up, start Rhodes Island at full power!"

The chain elevator that was going up suddenly shook violently.Dozens of pairs of staggered load wheels of the Rhode Island land ship rotated simultaneously, running on the asphalt-colored ground.

While shaking, the halo above the mourner's head was hit by someone's weapon.He was stunned, the scene in front of him seemed to turn into snowflakes in an instant, and he lost control of his body.In a trance, he felt that he fell into a fiery embrace, and his two bulging breasts squeezed his back, effectively offsetting the impact of the heavy equipment.

Could it be that he bumped into a lady?He thought so, before he recovered his vision, he blurted out: "Sorry..."

"Don't move." A voice came from above his head, low and hoarse, with helpless emotion.

It's not a girl, it's Yan Ke.

"Let's lean. In front of you is Zenmaru's naginata, which fell down just now." Yanke stretched his arms under his armpits, clenched his hands around his waist to fix them, "You can't see?"

"A little dizzy, halo..."

"Okay, I see."

The mechanical elevator continued to ascend.Rhodes Island's acceleration was not stable, so the elevator still had to shake back and forth from time to time, and Zenmaru couldn't hold her naginata steadily.Fortunately, the elevator was already crowded with people. Two big men over 1.8 meters tall were close together, so it was not so noticeable.

"No wonder Longmen has withdrawn from here since last night." Amidst the commotion, the mourner suddenly said softly.

Suddenly, a pair of warm lips were pressed against his left ear.

"What?" He heard Yan Ke ask him.

"The Dragon Gate of the Mobile City has been disintegrating since last night, and we have withdrawn from this area." He tried his best to calm the boiling emotion in his chest, and analyzed in a calm tone, "It seems that the senior management of the Dragon Gate has long been aware of what happened today. It is expected, but they are deliberately concealing this matter, even the two superintendents from Longmen don't know about it. What do you think of this Originium skill?"

"It's not the origin stone skill." From the back of the head came the "rustle" sound of hair being rubbed, and Yan Ke probably shook his head. "Whether it's the casting method or the metal puppets that can move, they are not the product of Originium technology. You are a non-infected person, and your perception in this regard is not keen enough."

"Then what is it?"

"I don't know, but it really looks like a miracle." The arms around his waist seemed to be tightened, pulling the mourner even deeper into Yanke's arms. "Angel, do you believe that there is a 'god' in the world?"

"The Laterans believed in an all-knowing and all-powerful Lord," said the mourner, "but even the Lord... I'm not sure. Our books say that the Lord created laws and decrees, but they don't tell us that the Lord also created such giants."

Rhodes Island was fleeing in the sky filled with flying ash, and the speed was getting faster and faster.The cracks in the earth were chasing after it, and the cracked traces on the ground were like the growth of a tree, and the "side branches" that gradually surrounded them began to block their way of escape.And on the only piece of land shrouded in golden sunlight, the cast puppet giants began to move clumsily.Its body is pure gold, its face is simple but majestic, while walking, it emits an indescribable metallic howl.

"I never believed in God before, but now I have to believe in it." Yan Ke murmured in a low voice.

"We may die here," said the undertaker.

The chain elevator they were in suddenly got stuck, and then stopped going up.Because it was swaying left and right, many operators haven't noticed this, but the undertaker has already realized it.There are seventeen guard operators, three heavy equipment operators and one sniper operator in this elevator. If its fault cannot be eliminated as soon as possible, the worst outcome that the undertaker can think of is nothing more than If the chain breaks, the entire elevator and the 21 people on the elevator will be thrown out by the high-speed Rhodes Island like trash, falling on the ground, or falling into those bottomless cracks in the earth's crust—whatever, It's all death.

"You mean the elevator stopped?"

"You found out too? Don't worry, that guy won't let us hang out."

The mourner knew that the person whose name was deliberately omitted by Yanke was the doctor.Indeed, the existence of the doctor brought them a lot of peace of mind, but just such a reason could not shake off the heavy pessimism in his heart. "We will die." He repeated, "Judging from the sound of the road wheels from outside, Rhodes Island's current speed has reached about forty kilometers per hour, which is close to the limit road speed of a large mobile city. If at this speed If we were thrown out, we would all be crushed to pieces by the falling apart elevator the moment we hit the ground.”

"But I believe we can survive." Yanke said.

"why?"

"Probably because I feel that the boundary of my own destiny should not stop here?" Yan Ke pressed the mourner's earbones with his warm lips, as if the sound that was poured into the cochlea had warmth. "Remember that feeling I told you about on deck? A simple belief that you are in control of your own life. Even God."

The light in the sky became more and more intense, as if the sun had fallen above the clouds, casting infinite light and heat on the scorched land.The falling black ash had already started to turn dark red, as if it could burn at any moment.The huge golden puppet started to run on the ground, every step it took was a violent tremor of the ground, thousands of snaking cracks were chasing the frantically fleeing little land ship, scrambling to incorporate it into itself embrace.

"What do you believe now, Undertaker?"

The chest that had been cold for a full fourteen days and nights suddenly ushered in a violent rebound.Countless complex emotions burst out, running back and forth in the limbs.The mourner heard the heartbeat amplified countless times in his torso, the sound of blood flowing, and the sound of emotions that had been lost for more than 20 years taking root in his heart again.

That is love.He suddenly understood that the emotion he named "dangerous goods" was love.Love can't be closed, it can't be ignored. If you lock your lips, it will come out of your eyes. If you close your eyes, it will come out of your heart.

What is he believing?What is he afraid of?His chest was sore, it was difficult for him to breathe, and he felt something dripping from the corner of his wet eyes.He could no longer bear what was exploding from his body.The ground separated from him by the layer of iron sheet is cracking everywhere, the sky is burning like a lake of sulfur fire, the end of the world seems to be close at hand, but it is not even a fraction of the trembling of his heart.

He is like a butterfly, about to break free from the chrysalis he made; he is like a seed, about to break through the thick shell of his body; With bloodshot gills, breathing with difficulty, he climbed step by step towards the new continent full of unknown and infinite temptations.

But there's so much, so much love burning inside him, and he's invincible in the world right now.

The leaden gray clouds began to collapse piece by piece, pouring down the heavy rain that had been accumulated for a long time, as if to fill the hunger of the earth.The mourner suddenly turned around in the cramped space.He stretched out his hands, hugged Yan Ke's cheek and pulled it down, and then pressed his lips against it.

There was a soft sound above the chain elevator.Somebody from the engineering team finally fixed the elevator and made it creak and creak again.

The whole world outside is crazy, everything is falling, only they are staggering up.The mourner licked Yanke's lips with a kind of eagerness that he couldn't understand, and then stuck the tip of his tongue in, stirred the water vigorously, and even bit the chapped lips of the Sarkaz with his not so sharp canine teeth. valve.Yan Ke was stunned for less than a second.Then he raised one hand to support the back of the mourner's head, and returned the past even more forcefully.

They kissed a doomsday kiss in the torrential rain.
