Chapter 1917 – Black Lion Roaring
Shangjing City.
Nightwatchman Headquarters, rooftop.
Dark clouds shrouded the sky over the city, and the howling gale blew the crimson cloak over.
Lin Qiye was carrying a straight sword at his waist, standing calmly at the edge of the rooftop, his eyes gazing at the distant horizon overlooking the earth.
”Commander, the ‘Winter Plan’ has been officially opened, and the evacuation of the population is currently underway throughout the entire range of the Great Summer, it is expected that after three hours, 50% of the population will be evacuated into shelters, and after five hours, the evacuation progress will have reached 75% …… ”
”How much time will it take to evacuate all of them?”
”Twelve hours.” Min Junliang held a tablet and replied seriously, “The territory of Da Xia is too wide, although most of the population is concentrated in the cities and nearby towns, there is still a group of people who live very remote, although we have survey-type forbidden ruins that can accurately locate them, it will still take a large amount of time to do a full evacuation of all the population.”
”Pretty much as expected.” Lin Qiye nodded slightly, “Are the others in position?”
”Basically in position, Hu Jia has already arrived in the city of Nan’an, which is the center of the Great Xia territory, and can radiate the power of the mind across the entire territory at any time, suppressing the possibility of large-scale panic and turmoil appearing;
Guan Zai and Yuzuri-Takibai sat in the command center, responsible for territory-wide evacuation route planning and projection, and monitoring the population flow;
Memorial cooperates with Chloe, and can appear at any one of the shelters throughout the territory at any time, so that in the event of accidents such as damage to shelters, they can be dealt with at any time ……”
Lin Qiye let out a hmm, his gaze slowly lifting from between the cities to look at the dark, dark clouds overhead.
The pupils of one gold and one black eye flared slightly as his vision pierced through the clouds and space, landing in the deep space outside the atmosphere …… He looked like he saw something, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
In the next moment, a thunderous beast roar sounded like an invisible giant cannon falling from the sky, bursting between the clouds in an instant and echoing in every corner of the Great Summer!
Roar – ！！！！
The berserk lion’s roar swept across the earth, and Zhao Zhengbin, who was rapidly rushing to the shelter, only felt his heart shake as he violently stopped in his tracks.
”What’s that sound?!”
Not only him, the surrounding crowd also turned their heads to look around, trying to find the source of that sound, the fear that had originally been suppressed by Hu Jia seemed to be making a comeback.
”Is it the sound of thunder?”
”No, it should be the roar of some kind of beast, it feels close to us but far away ……”
”It’s the roar of a lion, I’m the keeper of the zoo’s Lion Mountain, no one is more familiar with this sound than me!”
”A lion? This is the city and there’s no zoo nearby, where would a lion come from?”
”……”
After the lion’s roar dissipated, the sky and earth once again returned to a quiet, the crowd looked at each other and did not find anything strange, as if the sound had never appeared.
Although they were puzzled, they still took their steps and continued to approach the refuge along the guidance of the arrow.
”Xiao Bin ah ……”
”What’s wrong mom?”
”So …… those rumored on the internet, are all true?” The woman looked at the dark red arrows roaming the sky with a somewhat complicated expression, “This what the Night Watch, is the special organization that has been protecting us in the mists?”
”Yes, mom, you still don’t believe it until now?” Zhao Zhengbin spoke seriously, “Even if you don’t believe in those videos on the internet, you should always believe in your own personal experience, right? If it wasn’t for that night watchman in the black cloak, we would probably be dead by now ……”
The woman lowered her head and didn’t say anything, not knowing what she was pondering.
”Right, I don’t know how Grandpa and Grandma and the others are doing ……” Zhao Zhengbin looked like he remembered something and dialed a few numbers on his cell phone.
Although it was now a time of refuge, the communication signal was still very stable, and Zhao Zhengbin let out a long sigh of relief after making several calls in a row.
”Fortunately, although Grandpa and Grandma they live in the remote countryside, they were still found, and are now heading to the refuge just like us ……”
Before Zhao Zhengbin’s words fell, the earth beneath his feet suddenly trembled!
Ear-piercing car alarms sounded in the distance at the same time, and the crowd stumbled on their feet and almost fell to the ground, the buildings on both sides of them shook continuously, and broken glass spilled aside from the heights amidst the popping sound.
”What’s going on? An earthquake?”
Zhao Zhengbin half crouched on the ground and spoke in dismay.
At the same time, the military, who were parked across the street to maintain the evacuation, looked grave at the same time!
They quickly removed a few firearms from their vehicles, pulled the safety off, and looked around vigilantly as several monster roars came out from different directions of the city immediately afterward!
These several roars were clearly different from the lion roar just now, some were loud and low, some were ear piercing and shrill, and some were toothsome like metal friction …… But what all these sounds had in common was that they were in no way capable of being emitted by any human being or earth creature.
Moreover, Zhao Zhengbin could clearly hear that one of the roars was very close to them ……
Without waiting for Zhao Zhengbin to say something, several fighters roared as they swept across the sky.
Boom boom boom–!
Successive explosions came out from the distance, the blinding flames lit up the blackened clouds, the location of the explosions was right in the direction Zhao Zhengbin and the others were going to advance, standing here, one could even feel a wave of air coming from the other side of the street!
Almost at the same time, the dark red arrows above the heads of the people instantly jumped around, pointing to another direction, as if someone had been watching this place all along, and immediately guided them to change their routes when they saw the danger in front of them.
”Quickly go! Go!” Seeing this, the military personnel on the side immediately yelled!
The crowd panicked a bit as they immediately drew their legs and rushed in the direction guided by the arrow, Zhao Zhengbin also followed behind the crowd with his mother.
But even so, the sound of roaring artillery was still getting closer and closer to them, and the trembling of the earth under their feet was getting clearer and clearer, as if something was following them, rushing towards this place!
The color of panic climbed onto the faces of the people as they frantically fled in the direction of the arrow, but the feeling of being chased behind them remained strong!
Thud-!
With a dull thud, the earth beneath the crowd’s feet trembled, then fell into calm.
The terrifying hissing sound, the shrill sound of car alarms, and the trembling of the earth all disappeared, and only the buzzing of the fighter jets skimming across the sky still echoed in the sky.
”It seems to have left …….”
Before Zhao Zhengbin’s words fell, a giant shadow more than a hundred meters tall slammed down on the intersection in front of them!
Flying dust swept across the earth, the gusty winds almost lifted the crowd directly over, and in the gusts of terrified cries, a huge monster that looked like a bull or a snake slowly stood up straight in the smoke and dust ……
Metallic scales attached to the thick snake tail, growth of two curved horns of the bull’s head, overlooking the lower mole-like people, a pair of copper bell-like eyes, light black gas surging flow, manic atmosphere rampage out!
