Chapter 40 Despair

When Lin Xiang and others walked into the base, the time on the electronic screen had been set to countdown. There were still fifty-six minutes and twenty-seven seconds left before the red "zero" scale.

The lounge, which is thousands of square meters wide, is filled with dense crowds. In front of the square entrance leading to the base, two all-steel guardrails painted with yellow and black stripes were set up. Hundreds of live ammunition soldiers guarded both sides of the passage. Four officers with the words "Gendarmerie" on their left arms each controlled a lifting computer that fell vertically from the ceiling, and conducted strict identity verification for all those who wanted to enter the base.

This is the first-level base platform connected to the entrance corridor. It is also the gateway for all entrants to undergo secondary audits and full-body scanning inspections.

"How come the checking speed is so slow?"

"I am a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal People's Congress. What qualifications do you have to check my ID? Ask your leaders to come and see me-"

"It's so hot, why is there no air conditioning here? Can the room below take a shower?"

Almost everyone is expressing dissatisfaction. In their opinion, this is their own right.

The warning issued by the Chief of General Staff caused great chaos across the country. Although they were half-believing and half-doubted, the people who received the news rushed to the nearest shelter, especially well-informed officials.

With the officer's identity and the special symbols of the sixty-four mobile troops on their armbands, Lin Xiang and his group did not encounter any obstacles. When they passed through the crowd and directly boarded the lift to the core of the base, various different types of gazes such as jealousy, curiosity, doubt, and coveting were projected from countless directions and gathered on them for a long time.

Looking at the red numbers that kept flashing on the elevator wall, there was no change on Lin Xiang's silent face.

Along the way, he kept asking Qi Yue what was going on?

No one can answer this question except Lu Yulin.

The electronic clock counting down on the wall made him feel unprecedentedly crisis.

He kept thinking about Ying Jia.

Will she be in danger?

The moment I walked into the central control room, the answer was revealed.

On the huge electronic display, dense red lights filled the light blue plane of the earth. At first glance, it seemed like a pile of scattered red lines fell on the ground, and countless lines overlapped and crossed each other. Except for the occasional background patterns that showed through the gaps, the rest were swallowed by a blood-like messy wireframe.

Lu Yulin's elbows were placed on the unembroidered steel table, and his crossed fingers supported the slightly forward-turned lower penis. The back of his arm perfectly covered his trembling lips, but he could not hide the fear and shock emitted from his eyes that had been shaking back and forth.

Not only him, but everyone in the entire command center was staring blankly at the chaotic screen. In addition to the occasional sound of electronic sounds, heavy breathing and rapid breathing, the room of up to hundreds of people was as quiet as a grave in a strange shape.

In the lower right corner of the screen, there is a row of clear red numbers.

Thirty-eight thousand nine hundred and seventy-four.

This is the number of missiles that have been launched just detected by the surveillance satellite.

Among them, there are 2971 warheads, which belong to France, Russia, Britain and Japan. Their attacks are all from the United States.

The remaining 18,03 are from the states of the United States. From the map, the entire United States has been evacuated by red light, and the coordinates of the landing point connected at the other end of the line cover all the cities on the earth.

Staring at the screen, the general's eyes that were red-looking, a wolf-like hideousness emanated from his wolf.

He finally understood the real reason why the Americans did not express any expression of the UN General Assembly resolution. The other party had already prepared to kill him in the end, and the purpose was to destroy the entire human race.

Lu Yulin's intuition has become the most terrifying fact.

A bitter smile appeared on the old face, and his body was kept tight and weakly collapsed on the chair.

In the countdown time, there are still thirty-seven minutes and twelve seconds left.

Everything is understood.

Everything is too late.

"Order all guards to enter the base and close all protective layers and ground passages. We... must survive." This is the general's last duty.

Lin Xiang was also shocked by the terrible facts and couldn't speak. There was only one thought in his mind - Ying Jia.

The feelings tell me that I should save her.

Reasonable, it was too late.

The heart that was hanging high suddenly fell to the bottomless abyss. He subconsciously pressed and held the envelope containing the photo in his close-fitting pocket. The graceful figure in his consciousness wearing a white nurse's skirt was gradually fading, getting farther and farther away...

"What’s wrong with you?"

Qi Yue grabbed Lin Xiang's arm and found that his body was trembling involuntarily.

He opened his lips, but Lin Xiang couldn't say a word, so he could only shake his head silently.

"General, someone forced into the penalty area-"

Suddenly, the operator sitting in the surveillance seat screamed repeatedly. Following the guidance of the sound, people were shocked to see that on the surveillance screen, several black luxury "Mercedes-Benz" vehicles rushed in from the half-open base gate, and drove to the slowly closing all-steel gate. The hard body of the vehicle stuck to the center of the falling door wall. Several people jumped from the car gathered at the bottom of the half-open gate, as if discussing how to enter.

"Bastard, who are these guys?" Lu Yulin roared angrily, clenched his fists and slammed heavily on the table.

There are six minutes left in the countdown. The car stuck in front of the protective gate has obviously undergone special modifications, and the heavy steel gate cannot fall half of the point.

"...It's Minister Chen..." The surveillance officer responded in a dry tone, and a familiar face full of majesty appeared in front of the screen where the camera was locked.

"Immediately switch to the second emergency system to operate, and close the inner protective layer first."

"The system prompts that the operation cannot be performed. Minister Chen... has Level A permissions, and he has changed the closing time of all gates."

Lu Yulin looked at him with a sharp look: "How long will the revised closure time last?"

"Half, half an hour." The surveillance officer's face was full of despair.

The general gritted his teeth and quickly opened the external connection system to call out the call screen as quickly as possible.

"Chen Guangzong, if you don't want to die, enter the base now and close the protective gate immediately-" Lu Yulin's voice sounded like the roar of a wild beast.
