#864 - Chapter 864: Danger is coming to China! If faith has a color, it must be Chinese red!
China.
Beijing time, 12:30 AM.
Despite significant improvements in the economy and technology, and entertainment options far exceeding those of three years prior, leading to a noticeable delay in people's bedtime, it was still considered late.
But today…
Was destined to be sleepless!
Half a month ago, an alien civilization's mecha launched an attack, and the news spread across the globe in a short time, with panic engulfing the entire world.
Several days ago, restrictions failed, and dozens of cities were attacked, causing the level of panic to continue to rise.
Many countries were in chaos.
Finally.
China urgently released a message stating that they had a way to deal with the enemy, and that it would be broadcast live globally via satellite.
As one can imagine.
Not only hundreds of millions of Chinese people were waiting in front of their televisions.
All countries around the world were tuned into China Central Television's live broadcast, with billions of people waiting anxiously.
At this moment.
China became the world's hope!
After all, most countries were already in chaos, with social unrest and soaring crime rates, and even with all police and military forces mobilized, it was still difficult to restore stability—when China released the news, it became a lifeline.
Various countries assured their citizens that the alien civilization would be eliminated, and everything would return to normal.
If they couldn't do it…
The riots would be even worse than before!
…
Jiang City.
A well-known heavy industrial city.
With the rapid global dominance of domestic high-tech products, Jiang City has seen good development in recent years.
Not to mention other private enterprises.
Hanteng Capital alone has more than one branch company based here, bringing a large number of jobs to the local area.
In the early hours of the morning.
Zhao Jianwen and his wife were watching television.
Zhao Jianwen stared at the television: "We must trust the country!"
On the television.
A series of Yun-40s flew around the world.
After arriving at their destinations, they circled continuously in the sky, not knowing what they were going to do.
Boom!
Suddenly, there was a loud noise.
The entire community seemed to shake slightly.
"An… earthquake?"
His wife ran to the bedroom in a panic, her son, who was not yet a full year old, was still inside.
Zhao Jianwen didn't run.
He vaguely felt that it didn't seem like an earthquake, and he had a bad feeling in his heart, so he subconsciously ran to the balcony.
At this sight.
His legs trembled uncontrollably, and his heart beat faster.
Incredibly!
Not far from the community, a huge mecha emerged from the ground, its massive body of twenty or thirty meters in height, and the sword in its hand shimmering with light, made Zhao Jianwen recall a video he had seen.
Indiscriminate slaughter!
A scene of ruin wherever it passed!
He never imagined that a mecha would appear in Jiang City, next to his community.
The mecha's attack power was terrifying, and at his current location, he probably wouldn't even have time to wait for rescue…
"Husband…"
His wife came rushing out of the bedroom with the child in her arms.
At this moment.
She also saw the mecha, standing trembling next to Zhao Jianwen, her face ashen in an instant.
Zhao Jianwen hugged her tightly: "I'm here…"
He tried to give his wife strength, so that she wouldn't be so afraid.
Little did he know.
That even he was filled with fear.
Was he going to die?
Was it lucky or unlucky for a family to die together?
He looked at his crying son in his wife's arms.
His son was not even a year old.
Swoosh!
The mecha raised its long sword.
With a wave.
A blue and white stream of light tore through the night sky, and Zhao Jianwen watched as a distant building collapsed with a bang.
The mecha's attacks were not random, it specifically targeted tall buildings.
Suddenly!
Zhao Jianwen found that the long sword was locked on his direction.
"Wife, in the next life…" His voice was full of sorrow.
"The next life!"
His wife burst into tears.
One hand held her son, and the other held her husband's hand.
She didn't want to die, but there was no escape!
Swoosh!
Suddenly, a dozen beams of particles descended from the sky.
Not pinpoint strikes.
But continuous attacks!
The energy shield outside the mecha's body faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The mecha pilot realized that these were not pinpoint strikes to restrict movement, but seemed to be trying to completely destroy him.
The pilot was shocked.
He immediately gave up attacking the community, and while the energy shield hadn't disappeared, he immediately tried to escape.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
A strange crashing sound came from the night sky.
One behemoth after another fell from the sky, landing with the mecha at the center.
Boom…
The giant objects landed.
The sound of gears meshing together came.
The originally rectangular block-shaped metal ingots, gunmetal gray in color, after falling around the mecha, rapidly changed shape—in the blink of an eye, they transformed into moon-wheel-shaped devices standing tall.
There were eight devices in total.
Surrounding the mecha in the center.
At this moment.
The mecha was under continuous attack from particle beams, and the energy shield was about to be breached.
The next moment, the shield disappeared.
The mecha pilot was terrified.
Once the shield was lost, the mecha would definitely not be able to withstand the continuous particle beam strikes.
But…
As soon as the energy shield disappeared, the particle beams also disappeared at the same time.
Why didn't they continue attacking?
He was wondering.
Chirp!
The inner sides of the eight moon-wheel-shaped devices suddenly burst out with strange light.
Previously, the particle beam strikes had formed very strong shock waves, causing flying sand and rocks.
An incredible scene appeared!
The dust and gravel splashed into the air, constrained by some unknown force, actually all stopped in mid-air!
It was as if…
In the area surrounded by the eight moon-wheel devices, time and space were completely still for a moment.
Of course, time and space cannot be still.
This was a force field constraint device!
In short.
It controlled the atomic movement of constituent materials through force fields.
"What's going on?!"
The mecha pilot was horrified.
The particle beam attacks had disappeared, the mecha had not been damaged, but it had suddenly stopped running.
The cockpit was pitch black.
The power seemed to have been drained!
The amazing thing was that this force field had the same constraining effect on inanimate objects, such as mecha, dust, and gravel, but had no constraining force on living things—the pilot could move freely, but could not drive the mecha.
…
In the living room.
The television was still playing, and the buildings that the mecha had attacked earlier had no impact on this community.
'A total of 21 alien civilization mecha have appeared around the world, with 2 appearing within our country.'
'Viewers, what you are seeing at this moment is our country's latest research and development of a force field constraint device, which has a special binding effect on non-biological cellular structure materials.'
'This is CCTV!'
'We announce to the world that the major threat brought by the alien civilization has been officially lifted from this moment on!'
Zhao Jianwen watched from afar, the mecha was unable to move.
He heard the broadcast from the television.
He trembled and took out his phone.
He opened Kuaishou.
Now, Kuaishou has become popular all over the world, and Kuaishou is also broadcasting news live.
Unlike CCTV news, netizens can pop up windows on Kuaishou to post various comments.
There's more than one mecha, right?
Zhao Jianwen wanted to understand the overall situation through comments from netizens around the world.
Instantly!
The screen was filled with countless pop-up comments.
The content of the comments was different.
But in the end…
Everyone made the same comment.
Watching the endless, identical comments flood the screen, Zhao Jianwen's eyes welled up with tears.
He trembled and typed the same words.
'Believe in the motherland! If faith has a color, it must be Chinese red!'
After posting the comment.
He hugged his wife, and the couple wept in each other's arms.
