Chapter 30: Wasteland

In a blink of an eye, another five years have passed since the New Dynasty.
For the new dynasty, these five years have been a year of drastic changes.
Although the emperor was ill, although he used various methods, he could barely maintain his life.
As the illness worsened, the emperor's personality became more and more weird, even violent.
Arbitrary, domineering, irritable, and irritable.
It's becoming more and more intimidating.
If the personality change is still a trivial matter, then, under his leadership, countless resources are almost frantically poured into the Xizhou Research Institute, which has effectively affected the operation of the entire society.
In order to create enough weapons, the national treasury was emptied, a series of infrastructure was stagnated, taxation increased, and even administrative methods were used to search for wealth in an exhaustive manner, which caused the economy of the entire society to be depressed.
In the heyday of the electrical age, the country that should have been vigorous became weak in just a few years.
Some people tried to resist, but it was difficult to set off a storm.
After the short heyday of the entire new dynasty, it seemed to be faltering, and countless people were puzzled and did not understand what the emperor was thinking.
...
"I just want to look outside."
Daxizhou, at the extreme edge of the mountains, at the end of the northern mountains, on the edge of the endless sea, stands a high mountain.
On the side close to the sea, the lower part is a steep and smooth stone wall, while in the upper part, a series of "windows" are artificially cut out, and special glass is inlaid for this.
Here is the forefront of Xizhou Research Institute.
The hillside is hollow, and the central laboratory is hidden in the hillside.
To blast the "border", it is necessary to drop the super weapon, the "annihilation bomb" made by the research institute, at the end of the sea.
The mountains of Daxizhou are the land closest to the "border".
As early as before, all the "annihilation bombs" manufactured in the past five years have been placed at the end of the ocean, and submarine cables have been laid to lead the "switches" to this central laboratory.
This is almost the limit of control.
At this moment, in the central hall of the laboratory, the old emperor was standing in front of the "window" with the support of others, looking at the ocean outside.
The weather today is very good, there is no wind and waves on the sea, and it seems that you can see the "majestic wall" far away.
Behind him, in the central hall, countless people are busy, making the final confirmation.
After a while, the chief scientist, who was also showing his aging, walked slowly:
"Your Majesty, the three thousand annihilation bombs have been deployed, and the final debugging has been completed, and they can be detonated at any time."
As he said, he held up a dark green metal box in his hand. Several cables were connected to the bottom of the box, like a long snake, hanging on the ground, leading to the instruments around the laboratory.
"Very good." The old emperor retracted his gaze, stared at him with his already muddy eyes, and barely raised his weak right hand, but at this moment, he briefly hesitated:
"You know, the consequences of detonating it, right."
"Yes. According to calculations, with such a number of annihilation bombs detonated at the same time, the energy of the explosion will change the ecological environment of the surrounding area, and even cause the collapse of the world's ecosystem.
For us, even if there is a thick rock wall, the radiation it produces will kill us all in a short time, without exception. "
The chief scientist narrated in a calm voice.
His voice was not deliberately lowered, but the people around him did not respond to it.
In the past five years, by activating the "Secret Seal" many times, the old emperor has deeply embedded the idea of ​​destruction in these people's minds.
"Then do you think I should turn it on?" The old emperor asked suddenly when he heard the words.
"Chen... I don't know." The chief scientist's eyes were a little confused.
"I understand." The old emperor pursed his lips, took the detonator with a trembling hand, then turned and looked at the sea outside the window.
At this moment, not many researchers in the laboratory came over and looked at the little detonator blankly.
No one spoke, and needles dropped in the hall.
Only the old emperor followed the marked steps, slowly opening the case, entering the password, pulling the insurance...Finally, he hung his hand on the wrench.
Outside the window, the sun was shining, shining on his shriveled face, but there was not the slightest temperature.
"Click." There was a crisp pulling sound.
Immediately, in a dead silence, the electrical signal was input to the instrument through the detonator, and then to the other side of the world through the long submarine cable.
A brief silence.
Then, I don't know any researcher let out an exclaimed exclaim: "Wow."
In the distance, a terrifying force tore through the quiet sea, set off violent winds and huge waves, blowing away the clouds in the sky.
A violent indescribable boom drowned all the sounds, and numerous cracks appeared in the special glass inlaid on the mountain, which broke in an instant!
The infinite, pure, snow-white "light" penetrated the window, piercing the retina of everyone at this moment.
Flooded their consciousness.
At this moment, three thousand "annihilation bombs" detonated at the same time!
The ocean heats up for dozens of miles, boils, and evaporates countless water vapor!
The terrifying shock wave shredded countless devices and detectors on the mountain.
The radiation-laden dust rose into the sky and spread rapidly, sweeping across the continent, and then spreading to cities farther away.
In the cities.
Countless people in the streets, rooms, factories, schools, hospitals, stations... at this moment raised their heads at the same time and looked towards Daxizhou.
Looking towards, the flame that ignited half of the sky.
Countless men and women, old people and children.
At this moment, feel the shaking of the earth.
Eyes widened, mouth widened, feeling the sting of the skin, staring at the dust storm that stretches for hundreds of kilometers, covering the sky, and shouting in horror:
"what!!!"
After the three thousand annihilation bombs were detonated, 6 minutes and 26 seconds, the shock wave swept across Daxizhou!
7 minutes and 21 seconds, Mingzhou Mansion fell!
At 8 minutes and 49 seconds, Tai'an Mansion fell!
At 11 minutes and 05 seconds, Jingchuan Mansion fell!
...
18 minutes, approaching the center of the mainland.
At 22 minutes and 07 seconds, the shock wave swept across Kyoto! !
...
after an hour.
Tuck Continent, 300,000 square kilometers of fertile soil, has become a wasteland! ! !
...
...
At the same time, in Yangcheng, an Internet celebrity hot pot restaurant.
The air conditioner is fully on.
At a certain table.
Lin Tuo was holding his chopsticks and stirring the spicy pot in front of him. In the pot, in the attractive soup, the same ingredients were ups and downs.
On the left hand side, most of the iced drink has been drunk.
"Huh~" Picking up a large roll of overcooked mutton, Lin Tuo subconsciously blew it, then filled it with the sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, chewing happily.
When I swallow it in my stomach, I feel my whole body warm.
He picked up the drink and drank it again, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead:
"Lamb is only satisfied if you eat a big mouthful."
Muttering in his heart, the screen of Lin Tuo's mobile phone next to him suddenly lit up again.
It is a timed alarm clock.
It's time to collect ether again.
"Oh, it's an annoyance if it's too much. You have to breathe it every once in a while..." Shaking his head, Lin Tuo put down his chopsticks, leaned against the back of the chair, and closed his eyes.
Consciousness switch!
Next second.
Li Shanwu Hall, in the study.
The sleeping body lying in the wicker chair slowly opened his eyes, got up, walked to the sand table, and switched it back to the "creative mode".
Wait for the light and shadow conversion to complete.
Lin Tuo overlooked the 300,000 square kilometers of wasteland.
With a dazed look.
...
After a while.
Just listen to a terrible exclamation suddenly sounded in the martial arts study room:
"What's this...what the is going on?!!!"
