Chapter 1145: Chapter 676: The City That Was Extinguished (Part 3)

Qing Chen smiled: “Go get busy.”

Luo Wanya walked towards the War Fortress. At a certain moment, he turned back to look at the figure staring off into the distance at the sand table and suddenly felt that the person must be very lonely right now.

Actually, up until now.

Qing Chen had planned routes for 4,811 Time Travelers.

He had formulated rough tactics for Kunlun members and his family.

However, he had not yet planned an escape route for the nearly ten million residents of City No. 10.

And he had to kill Qing Wen himself.

He had to search for the neurotoxin expert He Jinqiu had provided clues about, Yuan Yang’s widow.

He had to save Qing Yi, contact the Spy Bureau, and help Lao Shen with evacuation.

He had too many things to do, but there was only so much time.

Qing Chen… hadn’t even planned a route for himself yet.

…

…

Countdown 01:00:00.

4,811 Time Travelers, more than six hundred Kunlun members, and over a hundred Parent Association members were all gathered in the square.

Qing Chen stood calmly in front of them, while Lu Yuan solemnly took out five Eyes of Truth and handed them to Xiao San: “You’ve been taught how to use them. We cannot confirm where the end of the Key of Gate will open, but as long as it’s not a particularly dangerous place, then we can start letting citizens leave City No. 10… Just remember that only a few Eyes of Truth can open the Key of Gate, and each time it can only allow two people through, so the efficiency will be very slow.”

Just the residents of District Three number five million, and even passing two people per second would not allow enough time for evacuation.

Moreover, the most crucial point is that the residents will not easily leave with the Parent Association.

Xiao San smiled and said, “We’ll send off as many as we can.”

At this time, other Time Travelers from the dormitory area also came to the square one after another.

They eagerly embraced, cheered, and gave blessings to the group of 4,811 Time Travelers.

Time Travelers from City No. 10 seemed like soldiers about to head to the battlefield, while the others were like family seeing them off as they embarked on a distant train.

One Time Traveler said: “If you come back alive, we’ll chip in to treat you to a special meal and some beers in the cafeteria.”

Another Time Traveler said: “If you come back alive, the best points projects at the academy will be yours.”

Chen Zhuoqu watched them expressionlessly: “No need, it’s already quite easy to get, thanks.”

Xiao Qi: “…”

The words from this ambitious person were always too blunt and ill-timed, but no one would blame her.

Qing Chen glanced at the time, then looked at everyone: “We have done all the preparations possible within the limited time we had. Next, everyone will have to face the darkest seven days. I will also be in City No. 10, with each of you. Let’s hope that at midnight after the seven days, we can all stand here alive.”

The next second.

The countdown reached zero.

The world plunged into darkness and then re-emerged in light.

The resplendent City No. 10 still loomed ahead.

Qing Chen held Zhang Mengchan’s hand and said, “Be careful, we will be in great danger next.”

“Boss, I’m not afraid,” Zhang Mengchan shook her head.

But right at this moment, a sudden explosion sounded in the north of the city, a huge burst of fire lighting up the entire night sky.

Immediately after, Qing Chen stared as, building after building within the city began to lose power and darken.

The city was plunged into darkness.

The power plant had been obliterated, rendering Qing Chen’s painstakingly crafted first strategy meaningless.

If this scene had occurred yesterday, Qing Chen could have changed strategies and devised other plans for the Kunlun members.

If it had happened a few days later, the rat infestation in the city would have been noticed by more people, possibly even reported in the news.

It turned out that Jindai Chika’s preparations were even more thorough and faster than they had imagined.

They perfectly timed the moments when the Time Travelers traversed and returned, not wanting to wait even a minute longer.

Simultaneously, within the border entry gate, a soldier from the Border Management Bureau suddenly started walking quickly towards the office area at the stroke of midnight.

He used his access card to open the office area doors and, once inside, opened the safety on his automatic rifle, emptying a magazine into all the staff within.

The crisp sound of gunfire echoed in the night, and the soldier, with a calm expression, dragged a body as he continued to penetrate deeper into the office area.

Outside, other soldiers reacted and rushed into the building.

But just as they stepped into the office area doors, the soldier who had infiltrated the gate suddenly disappeared like a ghost before everyone, and a small shikigami darted around the room like a shadow. In just a single second, the three soldiers who charged in had their throats slit.

After killing, the shikigami quietly stopped atop the bodies, sucking the blood. Its claws were sharp, with a thick layer of iron armor draped over its back.

Shikigami ATS-048, Iron Rat.

This soldier who infiltrated the gate turned out to be an Onmyoji!

He quickly dragged a body into the innermost control room, easily lifting it up to the iris scanner outside the control room.

The body was none other than the Border Management Bureau chief.

With a ding, the control room door opened, and the physical barrier network system of this city was easily placed in the hands of the Onmyoji.

He took a Black Box out of his jacket pocket and plugged it into the console interface in the control room.

Loading data.

1%…

7%…

29%…

100%…

The Onmyoji wiped the blood splatter from his face, his eyes remaining calm and composed.

This was once one of the most combat-proficient Onmyoji units under Jindai Chika, the few elite Onmyoji who were now starting to show their claws.

The next moment.

The steel gates on the edge of the city began to slowly descend, and the metallic storm atop the city walls fully entered standby alert status, ready to shoot any unauthorized persons approaching.

“Unauthorized persons” referred to everyone in City No. 10, aside from this Onmyoji.
