Chapter 463 464 Disappeared city wall"Outside! Outsider! Demons massacre in the southern region! 300,000 refugees are homeless Outside the number! Outside the number!" At the intersection of a slightly old street, a newsboy waved the newspaper in his hand and chanted frantically.
Occasionally, pedestrians pass by him, throw him a coin, and then take a newspaper from the satchel on his chest, and walk forward while looking down at it carefully. Content.
This title is still very exciting. Although many people have seen the morning news, reading newspapers is still a pastime, and some people will still buy it, and some people will still buy it from this more "old" way. to get some current news.
Although newspapers have just been invented for a few years, they are still beginning to be phased out. Today's newspapers have been overshadowed by television news and the emerging Internet, becoming a specific hobby for a specific group of people.
Seeing that his voice is better, the newsboy also sells the newspapers in his hands even more vigorously: "Humans are used as food! The Bamyhir area is occupied by demons! Terrible! Come and buy it!"
His shouts attracted more curious people. Although TVs are becoming popular now, there are still many civilians in this neighborhood, and those who have spare money to buy a TV are not counted. many.
On the newspaper, there is a photo from the front line of the battlefield. Among the ruins, several civilians who have fled are extremely nervous, and their eyes are full of fear and despair when they look at the camera.
On the huge boldface, the title horrible to see, and the subtitle is also hairy - demons feed on humans in the southern region, blood flowing into a river in Baamehir.
Bathing in the sunshine of peace, in the past five years, people who have almost never heard of any tragic war, gathered in small groups, shook their heads and sighed at the newspaper.
Although they are still not wealthy, but compared to the previous life, they have already solved their own food and clothing, and even have spare money to buy clothes.
These civilians no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat, nor do they have to worry about not covering their bodies. Although they can only live in small apartments, their lives have improved too much for them.
So they are now familiar with those distant horror terms, but also cherish the beauty of the present - after their personal comparison, they are convinced that they live in a great Great Empire worthy of allegiance.
"My God, they actually eat people, so they must be wiped out..." A civilian sighed while looking at the newspaper.
Another civilian followed nodded, agreeing with his neighbor's opinion: "Isn't it, thinking about it like that, I feel terrifying... This is an outlier, this is clearly the devil! It must be burned Die!"
A car passed by on the road, and the radio in the car was playing the morning news - these terrifying things were uttered word by word by the announcer, and let the inside of the car hear the news. The people were very nervous.
Now everyone is so rich and rich, but don't come to a group of terrifying cannibal rare beasts to ruin everyone's day, then it's really over.
No one wants to lose their current life, so everyone is very sensitive to this "monster invasion" topic.
In the car, the young rich man sitting in the back seat sighed, asked the driver to help turn off the radio, and looked towards the window with some worry.
Now this empire can be said to be really powerful, but many things are still not so reassuring.
For example, the city is getting bigger and bigger, it has expanded ten times and a hundred times before, and Serris City has even been so big that it can cover almost the entire territory of Serris.
And these expanded cities did not build any fortifications at all, and even the original fortifications were demolished because of the shortage of land.
Take Serris as an example, the original anti-aircraft artillery positions, city walls, and searchlights are now all luxury residential areas within a ring of extremely expensive land.
These places have long since lost those cold reinforced concrete towers, towering artillery pieces, 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 ability.
The only thing that seems to be gratifying is that the underground bunkers in these cities are well constructed, with underground blocks, bustling subways and underground shopping malls. Most of them can be used as air-raid shelters, and also take into account the functions of some reserve materials.
It's nerve-wracking that these big cities have little defensive ability if the demons break through the frontier and defeat the field troops fighting in far-flung lands, at least that's what it seems...
There is no city wall and no trenches here. Everything that restricts the development of the city seems to have been demolished.
The troops stationed on the edge of the city are pitifully small, and most of the time, you can't even see these soldiers who are only training in closed areas.
In addition to the air force that can be seen occasionally for training, there are also huge floating transport ships that are not moving very fast. Ordinary people don't even feel the existence of war.
Many soldiers can even go back home, spend a few months with their loved ones on vacation, and then return to the front lines to fight—how can this be called a state of war?
"Look at this group of people...if the demons invade Alanhill, they will all be eaten...our business will be finished, and this place will become a hell on earth." The young rich man thought a lot, suddenly Speak to yourself.
He may be talking to his driver, but the driver concentrates on driving. After a while, he considers his tone and replies: "As long as you are safe, Young Master. We can leave Dossenaar. , to Serris."
In the eyes of his driver, Dossenaar is already a great city that is very safe and has grown tenfold in the past two years, with smooth roads There are high-rise buildings everywhere and pedestrians rubbing shoulders on the streets, which is really as different as heaven and earth than before.
War seems to be a distant term since Alanhill took it. No one believes that the enemy will come here, because the closest enemy has been hit in the Franno River Basin.
"You don't understand...you don't understand..." The young rich man still has a vision. He feels that once the troops on the border of Alanhill are wiped out by the enemy, the enemy will drive straight in, and none of these cities will be behind. It's safe and secure.
But he still didn't say it, 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 transfer some of the business you run from the south to the north. At least you can buy a double insurance, in case something goes wrong, you can keep half of your net worth...
It's just the land in the north...the price is really exaggerated and scary. Artificial intelligence is also very expensive, and shareholders may not be willing to rush to transfer their industry to a part of the north.
"Ah..." Thinking of this, he sighed and shook his head slightly. In his opinion, they were just a bunch of idiots who only cared about their immediate interests.
He thinks, the car has already pulled into his company gate. Outside the gate, there is still an endless stream of people going to work. This place is still heaven, no matter how far away it has become hell.
Out of sight of him, the Dwarf's Ironforge is building its 15th Float, and many more like it, all in the meantime.
At the same time, in Serris, the second floating battleship has begun to enter service. In the arsenal far away in the earthen castle, the third floating battleship has also been built... Soon these battleships will be Commissioned to form what was originally envisaged, Alanhill's sky fleet.
Compared with the externally deployed army, the battle strength of the Alanhill core area is actually not weak at all, but it is hidden under the favorable economic recovery, and it is not so easy to be discovered by others.
If nothing else, just look at the more and more super god puppets that have begun to become less valuable, as well as those buried deep underground, with terrifying power and increasing numbers. Nuclear weapons, just know that Alanhill actually simply did not relax the army building.
Not only is it not relaxed, but it is actually greatly strengthened. In countless laboratories, Alanhill's weapons of mass destruction have actually been developed in an endless stream, many of which are very targeted terrifying weapons.
For example, Alanhill is working on a genetic weapon against demons that, once developed, could use a wide range of infectious diseases to destroy countless demonic forces.
This weapon has been tested on demon dogs for a long time, but it has not been fully developed yet.
For another example, the mountain that is preparing to be launched... If you compare it, it is a terrifying existence comparable to hundreds, or even thousands, of nuclear weapons.
Once that thing is successfully launched, maybe the demons in one direction will be completely wiped out, and even the ashes will not be left...
What Alanhill cuts is only regular troops, real cutting-edge weapons In fact, none of the development plans have slowed down the pace of research and development.
Including individual soldier equipment, heavy weapons, and even new fighter jets, Alanhill is constantly stocking up on technology.
Even, some laboratories are studying human genetic improvement - this direction seems to be a bit ahead, but because of the existence of magician, human genetic enhancement is believed by many people, and a lot of energy has been put into it. Research.
In short, Alanhill is far from being reduced to being strong in appearance but weak in reality, on the contrary, it is gathering more power, ready for the next outbreak, to all allies, and All enemies, a big "surprise".
