Volume 4: Spacetime Singularity Chapter 5 Wujiaochang
When Ning Yu'an followed the crowd out of the dormitory building, the entire campus had already begun to evacuate in an orderly manner. People filed out of various buildings and walked through the campus roads shaded by layers of trees under the guidance of the camouflage uniforms around them, heading towards the subway station not far from the school. This scene was a bit like a large number of electrons running in a circuit board.
When she walked out of the school gate, she found that the street had been completely blocked. All pedestrians were following instructions and running quickly towards the nearest subway station. The originally noisy street was eerily quiet.
Of course, there were many people who were attracted by the magnificent scenery in the sky, but the continuous flow of people prevented them from stopping and they could only take a quick glance at the scenery in the sky while jogging.
Once the flow of people is organized, it will naturally enter a state of extremely strong stability, just like schools of fish and flocks of birds. This state has good robustness and will not be affected by minor interference unless it is completely destroyed.
This is also why in ancient times, a few thousand well-trained soldiers could defeat tens of thousands of mobs. In that case, the fighting ability of unorganized individuals cannot be simply added together, but will rapidly decay as the number increases.
Ning Yu'an looked around as he walked forward with the crowd. The high-rise buildings on both sides of the avenue were empty. The famous five-way roundabout near the school was always filled with traffic from all directions whether on weekdays or holidays, but now it was so empty that it was a little scary.
When she walked into the subway station, there were already a lot of people inside. The large screens in the station that were originally used to broadcast news and train schedules were now all playing the scenes near the monster recorded by helicopters. People of all kinds were squatting in several square-shaped areas inside the subway station square, all looking at the large screens and whispering.
It was not completely quiet in here. From time to time, the sound of children crying, as well as curses and sighs in various , but it was completely different from the noisy scene Ning Yu'an had imagined.
Because at this time everyone's attention has been completely attracted by the monster that split not long ago. Although everyone probably knows about the fact that a monster suddenly appeared in the northern region, the news did not say that the monster will grow bigger.
Ning Yu'an could feel the fear gradually spreading in the air, the voices around him were getting louder and louder, and the pitch of the voices was gradually rising, and it was about to cover the sound of the broadcast that had been echoing in the hall.
"Dear citizens, although the disaster has caused serious damage at this time, in order to ensure the safety of your life and property and that of your family, the Municipal Government and the Emergency Management Bureau hope that everyone will remain calm, do not panic, obey the command, obey the command of the military and police personnel, and closely cooperate with the evacuation work..."
Ning Yu'an was also assigned a seat inside the subway station. At this moment, the entire facility was packed with people, and even the stairs had seats assigned to them. She learned from the whispers of people around her that not only the subway system stations, but all the underground civil defense projects in the entire city had been put into full-load operation.
Most of these structures were excavated between the 1960s and 1980s , and many of them have been turned into underground commercial areas or storage facilities. No one would have thought that the products of the Third Front Construction era would one day play their original role again in this form.
At this moment, Ning Yu'an, like everyone around him, was staring at the monster on the screen. Judging from its gradually enlarging size, it was getting closer and closer to the camera and seemed to be moving much faster than the helicopter carrying the equipment. Not long after, the broadcast image suddenly disappeared, leaving only a black screen on TV.
The crowd immediately erupted in a huge commotion, and Ning Yu'an's heart was in her throat. She could only stare at the people around her who were wearing green or black uniforms. She could not see any emotions on their faces, only a sense of tension as if they were ready for battle. This atmosphere that could be read from their faces had become her only source of security.
