Chapter 133 Chaos
"They are all extremely vicious criminals. Don't be complacent. There is no need to capture them alive. Kill them all on the spot!"
The commander of the Corporate Alliance Army who led the team into the conference hall said loudly.
Sheriff Violet also brought the DCPD officers to support. Although he did not quite agree with the decision of the commander of the Corporate Alliance Army and hoped to capture a live person for interrogation, he had to admit that killing without mercy was the most sensible approach.
Because these members of the Space-Time Knights are all a bunch of lunatics, and they cannot be judged by common sense at all!
The Time and Space Knights had launched many terrorist activities in major cities before, and DCPD had also tried to capture people alive for interrogation, but only a few were successful.
Most of the priests of the Knights of Space and Time would first let their knights and believers serve as cannon fodder, then pretend to surrender themselves, and finally suddenly self-destruct when the DCPD wanted to put on the suppressor, causing very heavy casualties to the DCPD.
Over time, DCPD also realized that it was almost impossible to capture the members of the Spacetime Knights alive. They would either choose to self-destruct immediately, or pretend to be avatars but were actually prepared to self-destruct.
Therefore, although the strength of the two sides is very different this time, and the corporate joint army and DCPD are already in a crushing situation, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties and not do useless work, it is better to choose to eliminate them all directly.
After all, it was already quite a shame that the Space-Time Knights had stormed into the Dawn City Council headquarters. If any new trouble happened again, the people from the Corporate Alliance and DCPD would all lose face.
The best policy is to put out the danger as quickly as possible.
However, just as the soldiers of the Corporate Alliance and the police officers of the DCPD rushed forward and wanted to quickly eliminate all the remaining Space-Time Knights, they noticed the huge space-time rift in the center of the venue.
Sheriff Violet had a keen sense and he noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with this crack!
It’s different from the time and space rifts I’ve seen before!
It's not just that the energy fluctuation level is high, but more importantly, it seems to have some subtle connection with the space-time activities of the outside world, giving people a feeling of extreme danger!
Sheriff Violet instinctively did not rush to the front because his intuition told him that there was a problem.
Although the three priests seemed to have used up most of their strength and become extremely weak due to the summoning ritual, the space-time creatures that appeared in the space-time rift still posed a huge threat.
But the others obviously didn't care about so much, especially the soldiers of the Corporate Alliance. They could see that the three priests were already at the end of their strength, and the opportunity to make meritorious deeds after their elimination was right in front of them. How could they not seize it?
The soldiers immediately opened fire wildly at the three priests!
However, the next second, a large number of space-time creatures appeared in the space-time rifts. These space-time creatures even gathered into a small-scale tide of space-time beasts. The black torrent covered the entire conference hall and swept towards the Enterprise Army soldiers!
“Get out of the way!”
Sheriff Violet shouted, but it was too late.
The soldiers in the front row were swallowed up in an instant. Without any preparation, they were completely unable to resist the tide of beasts composed of so many space-time creatures. They didn't even have time to scream before they were swallowed up by the black space-time matter.
Although some elite soldiers and police officers wore special protective clothing, in a space-time beast tide of this magnitude, the protective clothing could only make them die slower.
Sheriff Violet didn't care about anything else in such a hurry. He could only retreat quickly!
…
At the same time, a tight net had been set up outside the Dawn City Council building.
Soldiers armed with live ammunition guarded all the entrances and exits of the building, with the black muzzles of their guns ready to attack any members of the Time and Space Knights who managed to escape. Follow-up troops were on standby, waiting to reinforce the troops in the building.
However, at this moment, they heard a strange noise.
There seemed to be some kind of commotion in the building. Not only that, but there was also a rumbling vibration, as if a flood had burst its dam.
The soldiers in the front row looked at each other in confusion, none of them really understanding what was going on.
Is there flooding in the Parliament Building?
However, the next second, they saw many elite soldiers of the Corporate Alliance Army and senior police officers of DCPD rushing out of the windows of the building in panic!
Although the building is very tall, it is not fatal to these people. After all, they are all powerful people with high energy fluctuations. Some elite soldiers are wearing special combat uniforms or mechanical exoskeletons, so they will not die even if they fall to the ground.
But here’s the thing…
Didn't this group of elite soldiers go in to encircle and suppress the members of the Space-Time Knights? How come they ended up fleeing in panic?
The soldiers standing guard outside with guns were all stunned.
And the next second, they saw a shocking scene.
The black beast tide was like a flood, like an unstoppable flood that broke through a dam, and it rushed out following these soldiers!
Those black floods were made up of countless space-time creatures. A large amount of space-time matter burst from the top of the Dawn City Council Building, like black waterfalls, rushing down from top to bottom!
The soldiers outside understood what was going on and all these elite soldiers fled in panic.
Obviously, if it were in the wilderness, with heavy weapons and favorable terrain, this level of beast tide would not be unsolvable.
But in a small space like the parliament building, without the support of heavy weapons, this level of space-time beast tide is simply unstoppable. No matter how strong the individual combat power is, it is impossible to stop it and the only thing they can do is to escape!
The scene instantly became chaotic. The space-time creatures that were at the forefront of the space-time beast tide fell heavily to the ground, as if they had turned into a puddle of mud. But soon, these space-time creatures recovered quickly and rushed towards the soldiers at the scene!
The three priests were no longer able to control these space-time creatures, and at most they could stop them from attacking them. But now they were surrounded by layers of enemies, so they didn't need to control them at all, and could just attack them indiscriminately!
The soldiers of the Corporate Alliance quickly reacted, firing wildly at the space-time creatures, and quickly eliminated the space-time creatures that rushed in front. The various space-time activity inhibitors at the Dawn City Council headquarters also played a role, slowing down the space-time creatures' movements and weakening their strength.
But the problem is that, although a space-time beast tide of this magnitude will eventually be extinguished, it has already caused enough chaos.
The scattered space-time creatures attacked frantically in various directions, and the defense line of the Corporate Joint Army soldiers was soon broken. Although they were still trying hard to restrain the formation and limit the impact of the space-time beast tide to a small area, they were caught off guard and soon had many gaps torn open.
The scene was in chaos. The corporate coalition army and DCPD were trying every means to call for reinforcements, in order to stop this tide of space-time beasts and never let it spread to the inner city.
After all, the inner city area is the most important area in the entire Dawn City. Most of the rich people live in this area. Once it is crushed by the tide of time and space beasts, the consequences will be disastrous!
As for where the three priests in the space-time beast tide went, the Corporate Alliance Army and DCPD had no time to take care of them.
…
At this time, most residents in the inner city were at home and did not realize that the danger was so close to them.
After the sudden martial law order was issued in Dawn City, the Corporate Alliance began patrolling the streets, and most residents were not allowed to leave their homes. Moreover, due to the influence of space-time activities, the communication in the hash space has been completely cut off.
Most residents have nothing to do at home, so they can only play Mewtwo or find some other fun.
But for them, this situation is nothing new.
Martial law in major cities is not uncommon, and communication blackouts caused by space-time activities are even more common.
For many inner city residents, they actually have a special .
Because when they think of the wanderers in the wilderness whose lives are uncertain in the space-time storm, and the people living in the outer areas and satellite cities of Dawn City who may be displaced by the space-time beast tide caused by the space-time storm, a sense of security and happiness will arise spontaneously.
After all, these people are in the inner city, and the security measures in the inner city are the most complete, and generally nothing will go wrong.
With the Corporate Coalition and DCPD in charge, many people believe that as long as they wait patiently for a day or two, everything will return to normal.
At this moment, a young man who lived in a high-end apartment near the Dawn City Council happened to look in the direction of the Dawn City Council building.
Those who can live here are all wealthy people in Dawn City. They may not be considered the top rich people, after all, those top rich people have luxury villas in special rich areas, but those who can afford such high-end apartments are definitely not ordinary people.
They may be senior executives of a small conglomerate, or they may run a small company with good income. In short, they cannot compare with the top rich people, but they are much richer than ordinary people.
For them, being able to see the dawn city council building through the window is a kind of happiness in itself.
On the one hand, one can gain a strong sense of security, and on the other hand, one feels as if one is only one step away from the power center of the entire Dawn City.
This feeling is very intoxicating.
Therefore, many people always like to stand in front of the window, looking at the landmark building of Dawn City, and imagine their future.
No matter what society it is, the so-called "middle class" is always the most enterprising. After all, they are not as selfless as the top rich, nor as hopeless as the lower class.
However, when the young man looked at the Dawn City Council Building as usual, he saw a shocking scene.
In the upper-middle part of the Dawn City Building, a sticky, disgusting black torrent suddenly burst out, as if it had turned into several black waterfalls, flowing down the outer wall of the Dawn City Building!
In an instant, many people gathered together and looked at the landmark building in the Dawn City Council.
This is both the biggest advantage and the biggest disadvantage of landmark buildings: normally, countless people can see and admire them, but once something happens, they will also attract countless attention.
"What's that?"
"It seems to be space-time matter! How could such a thing appear in the inner city?"
"That's the Dawn City Council!"
"Where are the people from the Corporate Alliance and DCPD?"
"Could it be that the parliament was captured by the Knights of Time and Space?"
"What should we do? Run away!"
"Where are we going to escape to? The space-time storm outside hasn't stopped yet. Are we going to die if we escape?"
An extreme panic instantly arose in the hearts of these people. They were all stuck in their apartments and couldn't leave. Families living in the same apartment could still communicate with each other, but people living in different places couldn't communicate at all.
This has further exacerbated the panic in people's hearts.
Many people hid in their homes and thought they were safe. However, when they saw that the Dawn City Council, which had the strongest security force in the entire inner city and symbolized the highest power of the Silver Star Federation in Dawn City, had also been attacked by the Knights of Time and Space, who would dare to say that they were safe?
Some people did not dare to flee and could only stay in the apartment, pacing back and forth frantically like ants on a hot pan; while some people decided to take the risk. Anyway, there were not many soldiers of the Corporate Joint Forces and DCPD police cars patrolling the streets, so they wanted to escape and find a safer place.
The corporate coalition army is obviously unable to take care of all these. They can only try their best to control the space-time beast tide that broke out in the Dawn City Council within a small area!
…
In the chaos, three priests, Grantham, Meredith and Ferdinand, were taking advantage of the beast tide to rush outside the Dawn City Council headquarters.
Originally, the corporate coalition forces had set up a tight net to make it impossible for the three people to escape, but this time the space-time rift summoned a tide of space-time beasts that was completely beyond the expectations of the three people, and caught the corporate coalition forces off guard!
As the black torrent fell from the top of the Dawn City Council building like a waterfall, the entire inner city fell into chaos. The space-time creatures indiscriminately attacked all the corporate soldiers and DCPD police officers present, giving the three priests a chance to escape.
Although they are no longer able to control the space-time creatures, Meredith and Ferdinand can at least rely on their affinity with the space-time creatures to protect themselves from the threats they pose.
They kept observing the weak spots in the Corporate Alliance's defenses, blending in with the tide of space-time beasts, trying to escape from the Dawn City Council.
As long as they can break through the encirclement, they naturally have many ways to hide in Dawn City.
The way the two priests, Meredith and Ferdinand, looked at Grantham changed from suspicion to admiration.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding!
They originally thought that they were tricked by Grantham and were brought together to be surrounded by the Dawn City Council to be killed, but now they realized that Grantham had already made arrangements!
But... why is the space-time rift summoned this time so much stronger than normal?
Is it because of the time and space activities in the wild? Or is it because Grantham has some special talent in summoning rituals?
These questions puzzled the two priests, but this was obviously not the time to ask more questions.
In short, the two priests were filled with joy in the current situation.
Although they have not completely escaped, at least they have gained a glimmer of hope.
As for Chen She, he was also full of questions at this time.
what's the situation?
He had originally planned well, just thinking of waiting for the corporate coalition forces to attack and then "die in the line of duty" with the other two priests. However, he did not expect that he would not die!
Chen She vaguely guessed that the abnormality of this time-space rift summoning ceremony, including the sudden increase in time-space activities, was most likely related to Epsilon's upgrade, but as to the specific reason, it was still difficult for him to guess.
But no matter what, plans cannot keep up with changes, so we can only take it one step at a time.
