Mecha and God

The picture before me is very similar to what I experienced in military school.A post-modern city protected by an energy barrier, a mothership of strange demons floating above the city and constantly attacking, and an army of strange demons flying past me and heading for Shanghai.There were so many of them that I could not see the color of the ground beneath my feet.

They walked in a hurry, bent down, and hit the invisible wall with all four feet on the ground, as if they committed suicide collectively.The mortal body collided with the barrier, emitting light yellow energy fluctuations, leaving corpses one after another.The corpses were piled up like a city wall, like an unnamed tombstone under the city wall, paving the way for the strange monsters behind them, and their slender chain-like tails swayed forward and backward, like reeds swaying on the city wall.

And I stood in the middle of this tailless army, bathed in the pale and temperatureless sunlight, not knowing what to do.

I know this is the Promised Land, in a way, my other world.And this is 2673, a crucial year in human civilization.This year, everything is over, sinking into the ground, and stretching the ending infinitely.And when we wake up, we have forgotten the original world.

When Michael appeared next to me, I asked him, "Is this here?"

Michael gave me a clear answer.The ancients once told us that only human descendants can unlock this year in the Promised Land. It seems that after the queen controlled Long Yin's body, she had this permission.

"What's going on with these strange demons?"

"If you are asking me why they carry out suicide attacks, then I can give you three answers: First, human beings are almost extinct, and the ability of strange demons to reproduce is incredible. Because of the terrible famine; second, the reason why they did not resist was because it was an order from the Queen of Different Demons, and they could not refuse the queen; third, Shanghai's defensive barrier was already extremely weak, and the shortage of energy made breaking the city close at hand. This is a carnival-worthy day for Strange Demons." Michael looked at the distant horizon and said without any waves, "And if you are asking me why we have no interaction with this scene at all, then the answer Yes, this program is locked. Even you do not have permission to delete any content. It is a complete memory. The past cannot be changed."

I stood in the army, shoulder to shoulder with him, looked at this absurd battlefield, and nodded.

"But I worry that they're going to get what they want in this memory."

Michael knew what I was referring to, the Queen mentioned that she was going to take the Holy Grail before touching La Mer.And this is what Lucifer wants most.If Lucifer had the same authority as me, he would abuse his power to the detriment of the entire galaxy.

Michael looked at the watch on his wrist: "There are still 10 hours and 32 minutes until your birth."

"Let's go." I put my hands in the pockets of my windbreaker, "We're going to be ahead of the queen."

In this space, we have no privileges, and we need to abide by all rules except for invisibility.So when we entered Shanghai City, it was already five hours later.But the periphery has become a ghost city, the streets are empty, only the bright alloys on the exterior walls of decaying buildings tell of the prosperity of the past.Occasionally, rotting corpses can be seen, as well as shadows squatting beside the rotting corpses.They huddled there, and the sound of spitting out carrion made people despair.

Michael covered my eyes: "They're in the tower in the middle of the city."

"them?"

Michael nodded: "They created us."

At this time, I grabbed his arm and told him to turn around.At the corner of the intersection where we were, there was a smashed-up storefront. That storefront looked so familiar that I just stared at it, as if I could hear the strong smell of coffee in the music of "cutinlove". An extremely skinny little boy sat by the window, listening carefully to his non-existent brother, his hair was full of sunlight.

I felt a headache, subconsciously bent down and hugged my head: "Is it really Romance Cafe...?"

"No, no, the original site is not here." Michael rubbed my temples, "Are you hallucinating?"

"like……"

Michael stared in the direction of the store worriedly, "The Promised Land cannot be closed since it was unlocked. The last barrier in 2673 is the human gene. The queen broke the barrier, and she and Lucifer are allies again. Lucifer must be Nearby."

I can only pray that he is as useless in this as I am.

Michael's hand fell down and slipped into my palm, "Don't worry too much, Gabriel is here, if she really finds Lucifer's movements, she will warn us in advance."

I followed his gaze. Under the hazy sky, the little girl with dull eyes was holding a crossbow with a small doll hanging under the crossbow.The doll looked at me with a crying face.

"Let's go."

I followed Michael's pace, and finally couldn't help but glance back.Behind the dilapidated window, the young Lucifer sat on the table shaking his legs and laughing slyly, and suddenly changed into a bloody and cruel adult.

The center of Shanghai City is a tall tower.It looks slender from a distance, but when you get closer, you find that it is an avant-garde skyscraper.On the top of the building stands the two big characters "Langji".On the eve of human civilization being on the verge of destruction, genetic technology is in a period of rapid development and rising. The Greater China region has won the first place in this technological revolution, and "Longi" Gene Company is the monopoly of the industry.Countless gene medicines enough to be recorded in the annals of history were born here, and then spread all over the world, raising the limit of human potential.However, all these achievements were written off in the end: the "Langie" company leaked the Aspartum virus, which caused rapid infection and alienation, and finally created the alien race, ending the annals of history by itself.

"I didn't expect this building to survive until the end of the war." I stood in the shadow of Longey Corporation and looked up.

"Langji was located in the center of Shanghai City before the war. There is the highest-level biological laboratory here, as well as supplies and security to deal with major disasters. The surviving humans have long used this as their headquarters."

While talking, someone came out of the door with a gun in his hand. We stepped through the door and stepped into the smooth mirror-like hall of Lange Company.

I have seen the gene company in the memory outside of 2673. It has a cold texture in peacetime. From people to things, it reveals a rationality beyond what humans should have.Although the current situation has plummeted compared with the peacetime, I still read calmness from the resolute and stern faces of the scientists and military officers.Even if the refugee camp has broken up the previous layout, the scene can be called orderly.

"Your room is on the c19th floor. It is a secret project. Many people participated in your production, but only a few people know what they are doing." Michael led me to the elevator entrance and waited for the car to descend.

"An ordinary political game." I echoed.

With a ding, the car came to the first floor, and the elevator door opened lightly.

A strange monster suddenly jumped towards my door and pushed me to the ground!
