Chapter 162 Entering the City
[Audience Expectation Value +5]
[Current expected value: 78%]
This has been an unknown number of times where the audience's expectations have changed, and Chen Ling doesn't have time to watch them one by one. He only knows that the audience's expectations at this moment have exceeded the highest ever.
As Chen Ling pulled the trigger, the power of deconstruction surged out, instantly opening a gap in the center of the approaching city gate. The steel front roll, carrying terrifying kinetic energy, crashed into the city gate like an unstoppable bullet!
Boom——! ! !
In an instant, the front of the car tore open the deconstructed gap, smashing the entire city gate into pieces with a huge force. The dense fragments flew into the city as if they were ejected by an explosion, and the wind and snow mixed with dust and smoke obscured the city wall.
The people who were stopped outside the cordon felt the earth shake, exclaimed and looked in the direction of the city gate, and held their breath nervously.
The whistle roared in the whimpering wind, and a huge black steel shadow came from the abandoned purgatory of despair... Until then, everyone finally saw the appearance of the train clearly.
It was a train carrying wind, snow and ice. The whole body was charred, and the carriages at the back were even twisted and deformed. It seemed as if it had experienced unimaginable torture and hardship. It smashed the gate of Aurora City in full view of everyone. Howling out from the hazy smoke and dust!
It comes from the abyss, it steps on fire, it is unstoppable!
Stab-!
A sharp buzz came from the train, the brakes were pressed to the bottom, and dazzling sparks flew from the bottom of the wheels, dragging several long dark marks on the wide and slender avenue.
The harsh sound of brakes made everyone couldn't help but cover their ears. At the same time, a bone-chilling wind rushed into the city along with the train, blowing their clothes and hair. It was something that the residents of Aurora City had never seen before. The cold they had experienced seemed to come from the underworld of hell, making them shiver.
"Is it...so cold outside Aurora City?"
"Why does it feel like the temperature is completely different from the city?"
"I feel chilled all over... How on earth did they survive the heavy snow and wind outside?"
"..."
While everyone was whispering, on the city wall of Aurora City, a figure in a black coat finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the train entering the city...
Han Meng looked at the scarred train, guilt and complexity flashed in his eyes. He didn't know how the train passed through the gray world, but the survivors on the train had undoubtedly experienced too much. The suffering... If he had not come to Aurora City, but stayed in the third area, maybe more people would have survived.
A slight breaking sound came from the city wall, and the three law enforcement officers who were locked by the [Crime Judgment] roared at the same time, breaking free of the chains and regaining their freedom!
Only more than forty seconds have passed since they were blocked by Han Meng. However, these short few dozen seconds were undoubtedly a great insult to them. Not only did the orders given by Aurora City not be completed, but also in full view of the public. Being suppressed by an outside junior...his anger has already burned into his eyes!
They rushed to Han Meng's side together, and the three realms opened again. The terrifying aura was like the eyes of the God of Death locked on the figure in black, ready to fight him to the death at any time!
However, Han Meng did not resist at all.
He stood calmly on the city wall, overlooking the slowing train, and even though the attacks of the three men approached his body, he had no intention of taking action.
The three of them controlled Han Meng in an instant. They held Han Meng's shoulders and roared angrily:
"Rebel Han Meng! Disobeying the orders of the headquarters and openly questioning Aurora City! What else do you have to quibble with?!"
Han Meng never even glanced at them. His eyes followed the train and he answered calmly,
"I have nothing to say."
He no longer needs to resist and fight...because his mission has been completed.
On Luoye Avenue, as the speed of the train gradually slowed down, a large number of law enforcers and law enforcement officers rushed out from the city, surrounding the roaring steam train.
A large number of people stood outside the cordon, looking anxiously and expectantly at the direction of the train, as if waiting for something.
Qi——
The train came to a complete stop in front of White Pigeon Square, and the steam valve let out a scream. As the smoke and steam dispersed, the figure on the front of the train gradually became clearer in everyone's sight.
It was a young man wearing a blood-colored coat. He held a gun in his left hand, and green smoke slowly floated out from the muzzle. His calm and deep eyes slowly swept across the square.
"Is he the heretic Chen Ling that the law enforcement officers just said?"
"It seems, he is so young...he looks like he is only about twenty?"
"Wait a minute, isn't he wearing a law enforcement officer's coat?"
"It's true...but it seems to be all blood stained, so it turned red. How many people did he kill?"
"..."
Just as they were sizing up Chen Ling, Chen Ling was also sizing up this city that was completely unfamiliar to him...
Parks, street lights, kites, city towers... Compared with here, the seven major districts are really backward, like the basic accommodation areas around the factory clusters. Apart from the simplest life, there is nothing else. This is more like a city where we can live, and it is also closer to the "city" in Chen Ling's memory of the previous era.
"No wonder everyone wants to enter Aurora City." Chen Ling chuckled.
A rustling sound came from under his feet. One by one, embarrassed figures poked their heads out of the carriage door, carefully looking at everything around them. Most of their faces were frostbitten or burned, and their clothes were all in tatters. He looks exactly like a refugee.
"Aurora City...we have really entered Aurora City!"
"Dad...it's so beautiful here. There are so many colorful birds in the sky!"
"It's saved! My child is saved!"
"Is this Aurora City..."
"..."
A wounded man with a broken leg, a mother holding a dying child, a man with burns all over his body, a girl who was so hungry that she couldn't stand still... They got off the car one after another under the gaze of everyone, with surprise and more in their eyes. What I feel is confusion and helplessness.
They were like savages who had walked out of the mountains and forests, entering the city for the first time. Everything around them was so strange to them. Those people were wearing gorgeous clothes that they had never seen before, their faces were clean, and their hands were clean. There are no scars or calluses... In the distance, there are endless small buildings and streets.
At the same time, the residents of Aurora City behind the cordon were also watching them in whispers... For most of them, this was their first exposure to the world outside the city walls.
Residents inside and outside the city looked at each other across the human wall and cordon of law enforcers. The difference between the two worlds was vividly displayed at this moment.
At this moment, the crisp sound of loading was heard, breaking the delicate silence.
Countless guns were raised from the group of law enforcers and aimed at the bloody figure on the train, as if facing a formidable enemy!
