Flowers Blooming in the Wasteland

Less than 3 minutes after Celeste closed his eyes, he heard a message from He Xiao through the communication device buried in his ear canal: "The Devourer has made a new move, and I need your help."

"What happened?" Celeste asked softly, not wanting to wake Fu Yunlan up.

"Go to the command room of the military headquarters near Hummingbird Town first, and I will explain to you on the way."

Celeste sat up, looked at Fu Yunlan who was sleeping soundly, hesitated for two seconds but still didn't wake him up, put on his clothes quickly and went out.

The nearby military base was only a ten-minute drive from Hummingbird Town. Knowing that the matter was urgent, Celeste didn't wait for his subordinates to drive over, but ran over the city wall directly.

He Xiao started to introduce the situation to him halfway: "It seems that the Devourer has made a new breakthrough in the use of dimensional space. I have detected some signs that it is replacing some dangerous creatures from other galaxies to the earth. Although I discovered it when it drew the coordinates, but I didn't have time to stop it. Now I must use all my energy to interfere with the Devourer, and try not to let it replace more things. You command the human army, Against the dangerous creatures that have been sent to Earth."

The last time the Devourer suddenly threw Celeste to China, it used space replacement technology, but at that time its technology was not mature and precise enough, so Celeste survived by chance and met Fang Jingyu, But this time, the Devourer's displacement was not only more accurate, but also the distance was greatly lengthened.

If it throws some monsters from other distant galaxies to the earth, it is obviously powerless to resist with the current level of human weapons.

"I understand." Celeste didn't stop for a moment, and gave Mars and Case continuous instructions from the beginning of the road. With the speed of a super soldier, he arrived at the military base in less than 5 minutes.

The staff at the base had just received his order to move all the important instruments to the command vehicle, because the base would definitely become the key target of the Devourer.

The armored command vehicle drove away from the base, and one order after another was transmitted from this vehicle to the whole world. Soon, all the electronic machinery that could be used by the Devourer were all shut down, and the armies everywhere, including super soldier troops and ordinary people, They all quickly assembled to guard the only few resettlement points.

Celeste also gave an order to bring Fu Yunlan to his side immediately.

After Fu Yunlan fell asleep, she was completely unaware of the chaos outside until she was violently shaken awake by the black tower.

"Boss, something happened!" Heita was so anxious that he forgot to call him general.

"Hmm... don't panic, what's wrong?" Fu Yunlan still had some confusion about whether she was in a dream or in reality.

"Anyway, it's an emergency, you have to go with us immediately!" Hei Ta was stupid, and didn't know how to describe the current situation in desperation. He could only firmly remember the last order he received before the communication was disconnected: Fu Yun Blue to Celeste.

Fu Yunlan didn't even have time to put on her clothes, so she went out with Heita in her shirt. The cowboy was waiting outside the door in a convertible jeep, and when they got into the car, they saw a translucent figure appearing in the air nearby. yellow sphere, and there is also a thing that seems to be a fusion of a beetle and a mollusc.

The yellow turbid gas from an unknown planet dispersed like a cloud of smoke, and the strange creature fell straight down.

The cowboy immediately put down the steering wheel and picked up the sniper rifle. He shot the thing before it hit the ground. The power of the heavy sniper was amazing. hurt.

Then this half-human tall creature with a head that couldn't tell which side it was in turned into a ball and rolled towards them quickly. The speed was not fast, but the quality was obviously amazing. The road where it rolled was cracked. The fire hydrants and street lamps along the road were knocked out of shape.

Before the cowboy had time to hold the steering wheel firmly, he kicked the accelerator to the end, the car swerved, and the Heita who had just jumped onto the back seat was thrown off.

Fu Yunlan reached out and took out the pistol from the cowboy's gun pocket. Just thinking about shooting this alien monster, he felt a pain in his neck, and the collar that Celeste put on him released a warning message. current.

Fu Yunlan snorted, put down the gun, and didn't dare to resist any more. The machine couldn't tell what a person was thinking, so it could only react equally to all attacking thoughts.

Heita caught up with him by two steps, but he didn't get in the car again. Instead, he took away his usual heavy machine gun, kicked the jeep like a donkey, and urged, "Hurry up, take the boss away!"

The cowboy didn't talk nonsense to him, and the electric jeep flew away in a hurry. Fu Yunlan turned around and saw Heita holding a heavy machine gun and firing continuously, and the bullets hit the hard shell of the alien creature The flying sparks and the huge impact blocked its castration, knocking it to one side, but it was still unharmed.

All kinds of monsters beyond the limit of human imagination appear in the sky above human settlements all over the world. Compared with the outbreak of zombie virus and world nuclear war, this is more like a real doomsday scene.

Fortunately, Celeste’s voice has been intermittently transmitted to every settlement through the anti-jamming communication device he has worked so hard to build over the past few years, guiding people how to deal with the immediate crisis, although some damage and injuries were still caused by alien monsters. There were casualties, but people were finally able to maintain the confidence to resist.

The Devourer couldn't pinpoint Celeste's location precisely, but it knew that Celeste must be near Hummingbird Town, so from the very beginning, Hummingbird Town suffered the most intensive blows, and all kinds of monsters appeared here one after another. In a small town.

Celeste directed the evacuation of the residents, and at the same time let the super soldiers entangle the alien monsters in the streets and alleys, but soon he saw a horrifying sight, a huge translucent liquid ball appeared in Hummingbird Town above.

Relying on the guardian's perception ability, Celeste knew that it was not water but liquid methane without getting close.

Celeste ordered: "Everyone evacuates Hummingbird Town immediately, shooting is strictly prohibited, and all fireworks are strictly prohibited!"

Thousands of liters of liquid methane, under the dual effects of the earth's gravity and air resistance, fell and dispersed into water droplets, raining methane on the town of Hummingbird.

Although Celeste's order was clearly conveyed to the ears of every super soldier, it was simply impossible for the chaotic town of Hummingbird to not even have a faint spark appear.

The town of Hummingbird, which was drenched in methane, fell into a sea of ​​fire after a big explosion. Everything was engulfed by the fire. Even Celeste, which was far away, could feel the power of the explosion. The command car was lifted up.

Celeste couldn't ascertain Fu Yunlan's location. He only knew that the current location of the Black Tower was on the edge of Hummingbird Town, and the cowboy was farther away. He didn't know who Fu Yunlan was following and whether he had withdrawn safely.

He really wanted to go to Fu Yunlan right away, but he couldn't be distracted by the current situation. After the Devourer burned Hummingbird Town, he locked the command vehicle and began to send various monsters to the command vehicle's location one after another.

Celeste himself steered the steering wheel and galloped across the plain, making sudden U-turns or turns from time to time, which made the staff behind him dizzy. While dizzy, he had to issue the orders dictated by Celeste through the workbench .

The super soldiers who withdrew from Hummingbird Town looked very embarrassed, and more or less suffered some burns, but their improved physique allowed them to continue fighting even under such circumstances. The surroundings of Hummingbird Town were in chaos, Fighting scenes of super soldiers and various alien monsters are everywhere.

He Xiao's interference began to work. The things thrown by the Devourer became smaller and smaller, and the time intervals became longer and longer.

Celeste slammed on the brakes. As soon as the car stopped, a spherical shape appeared less than half a meter away from the car. If Celeste hadn't reacted quickly, all the command cars would have been replaced at 01:30 To some unknown planet.

A large mass of milky white mucus appeared in that place, and the mucus collapsed softly, wriggling and moving towards the command vehicle.

Then, one after another, more and more milky white mucus appeared around.

"Even if this kind of thing is thrown over, does the Devourer really want to turn the earth into a desert of life?" Celeste gritted his teeth angrily, ordered people to stay away from this slime, and used all available transportation equipment to transport it. Quicklime comes and fills them.

Of the living planets in the universe, less than one in [-] planets has the chance to develop intelligent life, and even fewer have advanced civilizations. But lack of intelligence does not mean that there is no danger.

This low-level creature without even thinking is simply a brainless version of a devourer. It will devour all proteins and sugars it comes into contact with, as well as more than a dozen metal substances such as iron and sodium, and transform them into parts of its own body. After it expands, it swallows more matter. On its home planet, all other creatures have lost the chance to survive. Only this flood of white slime-like creatures remains, and the tree of evolution is cut off forever in this way. this layer.

The slime devoured the useful matter in the soil and kept growing. Before it got big enough, the army raced to transport the quicklime over. The slime spit out all the water like a salted slug and collapsed into A lifeless floc.

Although the alien monsters replaced by the Devourer are all species with very strong vitality, and some can survive for more than half an hour even if they are thrown into a vacuum, they are not suitable for the environment of the earth after all. They weakened and began to die one by one, and those who survived were wiped out by the human army under the command of Celeste.

It seems that the Devourer's plot failed again this time.It should know that He Xiao has the ability to interfere with it and prevent it from sending too many dangerous items to the earth. It should also be able to calculate that these alien monsters replaced before being interfered can cause limited casualties and cannot shake the foundation of human beings.

Then why did he do such a seemingly redundant thing?

It suddenly occurred to Celeste that Fu Yunlan hadn't been sent here until now.

The collar around Fu Yunlan's neck restricts his attacks, but it does not restrict him from hiding and escaping. Years of combat experience and the physique of a super soldier should be enough for him to avoid most dangers.

But where is he now?

Celeste followed the bodyguards and found the heavily burned Black Tower near Hummingbird Town, and the cowboy who was dying after fighting several monsters next to the overturned jeep, but Fu Yunlan was not there.

He once again lost track of Fu Yunlan.
