Chapter 109: Brilliant City
"How is it possible?"
Monica opened her eyes wide in astonishment, and Fry stood up in astonishment.
The bottom of the city wall was a sea of red, with embers floating in the wind, and black and red tentacles twisting wildly, constantly burning without fire, and turning into dust in the wind.
Some tentacles twisted violently and dissipated under the light, while the huge black and red tentacle tower in the distance was gradually collapsing. The sun's light made these tentacles nowhere to hide.
"Monica."
Fry looked at some dead people on the side. He clenched his fists and was full of sadness. He knew that these lights were not short-lived. When he saw a huge ball of light in the air, Fry was sure that these lights would no longer be short-lived.
The cold body began to heat up. Fry pulled off the tightly wrapped coat and asked.
"Is this the sun?"
Monica hummed, and Fry looked up and saw a tearful face. Monica was crying. This was the first time Fry saw Monica crying.
"It's all too late."
Monica murmured. A few hours ago, she had just ended the lives of a bunch of people, but now the sun was rising.
The sun shone on this bare land, and the black tentacles were nowhere to hide. In a short time, the red faded, and the black and red tentacles disappeared on a large scale. The original town of humans was exposed, and Fry saw the real colors. Many colors looked gray and white, but now it was different.
The colors seen under the lights became extremely vivid under the light. A terrifying roar sounded, and the huge black and red tentacle tower in the distance collapsed.
The wriggling tentacles turned into flying ashes and dissipated in the air. The sun's light made Fry feel extremely warm. This was something Fry had never seen before, and Monica was the same. She had never seen the real sun either.
In the past, Monica could only learn about the sun from some movies, TV shows or books, but at this moment she really felt what it was like that the sun was the source of life.
Such light cannot be described in words. The significance it brings to mankind is extraordinary. This land, which has been shrouded in darkness for nearly a hundred years, is finally bathed in light again.
In some towns in the east and west, some faint voices merged into one, and many people shouted. Those who were in despair closed their eyes and felt the incredible warmth on their bodies.
The sun that appeared in the sky was incredible to many people. Many people tore off their heavy clothes, and some people went directly to the farmland. Now they can move freely under the sun.
Many people hugged and cheered passionately. The monsters in the dark disappeared in an instant. Although it still looked dark above and around the sun, the light was sprinkled on every inch of land.
After the excitement, there was crying. Many people cried. It was too bad over the years, especially in the past year. After these monsters appeared, many people were forced to the brink of collapse.
Many people did not hold on until the sun rose. Many people remembered what the gods said, that they would solve all problems. Now the gods have done it, and some people shouted for the gods.
Everyone was overjoyed in such a light. At this time, the tears on Monica's cheeks had dried up. She looked at Fry and said.
"In the future, the gods will start to build cities, and you have a bright future."
Fry smiled and nodded, but then said.
"You are the same, Monica. You are still in good health now, aren't you?"
Monica smiled and hummed, but she knew what her ending would be. From the moment the sun rose, Monica realized it. She sat down and took out a cigarette and lit it, then smiled.
"When everything is established, I will take you to the operation, Fry."
Fry hummed, and the two laughed happily. Monica glanced at the shadow behind her and then laughed.
"People standing in the sun really have a very big shadow."
4 o'clock in the afternoon
Tuk looked at the cheering crowd in the town. Everyone was shouting. He lay tiredly on the chair. Although he was very tired now, Tuk couldn't sleep. The town was already on the edge of the cliff. If the sun didn't rise, the town would fall into riots tomorrow.
But now everything is safe. As long as the sun rises every day, the human society destroyed by war will recover. Tuke decided to take people to the base of the gods.
Since the sun has risen, the gods should now go out of the base and start to manage humans. To integrate everything, the big and small families need to be twisted together.
If you want to train some people again, it is obvious that time is not enough. No one wants a war to break out now, but so many people are hungry. As long as the mature family management system is in place, all aspects can be mobilized quickly.
Tuke asked people to drive out the car, and then asked the people guarding the gate to open the gate, because there are still a lot of food stocks in the town, which can be distributed to some people coming.
Avano immediately organized an army. They must rescue as many people as possible. Now there is no need to worry.
At this time, outside the base of the gods, Gene quietly stared at the crowd after the cheers. Now that each person has regained his sanity, they walked up carefully and bowed their heads devoutly.
"From now on, we will gradually build a city under the sun called Brilliant City."
Deguna said seriously, many people just lowered their heads, did not cheer, many people sobbed quietly, and Gene immediately called Hawke to release all the food stored in the base. After the people nearby rested for a day or two, they would start to get busy.
The top priority is to resume production. Deguna explained the current situation through a high-power broadcast. Many people started to move and began to clean up the nearby corpses.
Gene sat quietly beside the base, looking at the sun in the sky. His expression was cold, just quietly watching the busy crowd.
Rose walked out and said directly.
"I'll go over and deal with it. My ability is more convenient. I will make a big enough pit, and these people will become nutrients."
After saying that, Rose walked over and began to direct the people who moved the corpses. Soon the outside of the base was cleared out, and some people were already queuing up to receive food.
All future construction after the sun rises, Gene and his team have already planned it. Now they only need to call all the families over and arrange their tasks. First, resume production so that everyone can eat, and then start discussing the construction of the city.
This time, Gene and his team planned to build a huge city and began to build a protective wall to keep the monsters outside the wall so that the city could develop steadily.
After resuming production, the construction of the protective wall will begin, and Gene and his team have already prepared the design drawings.
Another function of this wall is to maintain the temperature of the city and establish a stable ecosystem.
Ye Chunwang came to Gene and asked.
"What can I do?"
Gene looked at him and said.
"Aili said you are very talented, so farm well. The future development of agriculture is related to the problem of everyone's food."
Ye Chunwang nodded.
"Lord Gene, I will do it well."
Gene nodded. In the future, agriculture will be directly owned by the city. No private or corporate family is allowed to get involved in food planting. Gene and his team thought about this early, and the pricing of food is controlled by them.
As long as the food can be stabilized, everything will slowly get better.
Many people left after receiving the food. Some cities still stored food. The tentacles did not eat too much, and more and more people began to leave.
Gene and his team did not plan to ask the families to come over for discussion immediately. Instead, they planned to let them resume production and stabilize for a period of time before asking them to come over to prepare for the city construction.
In the future, the family will be the main force in the city construction. There is no way around it. If we start over, there will be disagreements and disputes in the coordination of many things. Now we can only rely on the stable and mature family system to build the city.
In the future, the family will also be needed to help manage the city. In the future, the city will slowly develop, and technology must keep up, because there will not be much time left for humans.
At most two hundred years, this is already the limit in Gene and his calculations. This planet will gradually die.
In the end, humans must break through the darkness and go to the vast universe to continue to survive.
Everything has been decided long ago. Gene smiled helplessly. Perhaps when humans leave, Ellie will come back. Gene stood up and looked at the people in front of him. Li Chu patted Gene on the shoulder helplessly and said.
"Busy man, you'll be busy in the future."
Gene smiled, then raised his head and took out a cigarette to light it. He knew very well what he needed to do in the future, not just to get humans back on track.
Time goes back to the present, March 1, 2278.
Gene looked quietly at the bottom of the spaceship, where only a little trace of human beings could be seen, as if it was completely covered by lava. He held the wine glass in his hand, and Tang Rao beside him smiled.
"Remember, we once made missiles in the small city below."
Gene smiled and nodded, all the memories emerged, a span of two hundred years, for them, it was like a blink of an eye.
Tang Rao said with a smile.
"It was a pity at that time. If our power had awakened earlier, we might not have to go through all the hardships on the grassland, and Ellie would not have left."
Gene hummed, now thinking carefully, the first big city on the plateau they arrived at could be built into a small human country. Even if there was only darkness forever, they could still let humans survive.
The spaceship continued to move forward slowly and steadily. Soon, the two saw a road that was almost unrecognizable. At this time, Witt and Gu Yi also came up. Gu Yi said with a smile.
"I really miss it. At that time, we made a very convenient car ourselves."
Witt laughed. The world in front of him was still full of too many mysteries. On several light and shadow screens, there were always images of some strange creatures. They were still moving slowly, approaching the Brilliant City.
After this cleaning, it must be cleaned again in about a year. This time, the four people are going to explore the secrets of this world.
Especially the kangaroo country, Tang Rao asked.
"Are you really going? The other side of the ocean."
Gene nodded. He had to go and see it. The former world superpower might still exist.
"We have to figure everything out so that the next time the world starts to change drastically, we will have the means to deal with it."
After Gene finished speaking, the other three nodded.
"Why are you worried about Bright City?"
Tang Rao asked, and Jean nodded this time. He was indeed a little worried, although everything is on track now, the problem has begun to be solved, and a formal meeting with the Sky Space Nation will be held.
"They'll take care of everything."
Gu Yi said, and Witte on the side also nodded, and then Tang Rao looked at Jean and said.
"You have always kept in mind what Ellie said in the past, so when selecting candidates for section chiefs, you always adhere to that principle and just leave it to them. Those section chiefs and secretaries are all selected by you. . They will shoulder the responsibility of this era of Bright City."
Gene laughed and then said.
"Have you changed your mind?"
Tang Rao said.
"Of course, because we can see hope, we are not cold-blooded machines. Of course we don't want humans to lose their bodies and only have their brains left. As long as there is hope, of course we hope for flowers, sunshine and smiles."
Gene said with a hum.
"This is our last chance. We are going to see the human cities of the past soon. We have to go down and have a look."
All four of them nodded, and the carrier spacecraft sailed towards a huge city.
This city is a large city at the entrance of the plateau. High-rise buildings can still be seen. The city is standing in the darkness. The spacecraft begins to approach a little bit and begins to lose altitude.
Now they are equipped with complete equipment and can conduct research in various aspects along the way.
The original plan for this trip was not to bring so many people, but due to various changes in the city, everyone was full of hope and finally had time to investigate the world.
Some excited voices came, and a bunch of people from Section 10 came up. They had been equipped with equipment and planned to go directly into the city to do some research.
"Everyone, listen up. We will be divided into four groups, led by the four of us. Each group has 20 people. The rest of the people will stay on the spacecraft. If there are any problems, please notify Jean as soon as possible."
"Yes, Lord Tang Rao."
A chorus of voices sounded, and Tamai looked at the unknown world below with a smile, joy in his eyes, and then walked towards Jean.
"Lord Jean, I'll join you."
