Chapter 803 Forcible Demolition of the Lower City (Part 1)
Compare that to the chaos uptown.
The civilians in the lower city of York seemed quite calm.
On the dark and damp narrow streets, the passers-by looked numb and did not care at all about the chaos at the seaside port.
People living here have long been accustomed to being precarious.
Compared with the affluent and stable life in the upper city, the people in the lower city live like rats in the gutter.
It’s not just a problem of a poor environment.
Even the most basic food and water sources are not guaranteed at all.
This place is like a cruel jungle made of reinforced concrete, and everyone is doing their best to survive.
Cleverly using Lord Umibo to hold back Green and his city defense troops.
After Xue Yunfei escaped into Xiacheng District, he immediately activated the "Stealth" skill, concealing his figure and aura, and quietly lurked into the alley as complex as a sewer.
Boom——
Accompanied by a dull loud noise.
The entire lower city shook violently, and many manhole covers flew up from the ground. Foul-smelling sewage gas burst out, immediately causing commotion in the streets.
Passing vehicles and people gave way.
Everyone seemed to have gotten used to it, and there was no trace of emotion on their cold faces.
The next moment——
A solemn voice suddenly floated from the upper city on the ground.
Almost at the same moment, it exploded in everyone's ears!
"Master Umibo, you are so brave, you dare to openly attack the holy city of York. Do you really think that no one can suppress you!?"
Immediately afterwards.
A barrage of cannon-like blasts erupted in the sky.
Being in the dark and humid Xiacheng area on the third underground floor, Xue Yun had no idea what was going on.
I just felt a looming aura that was countless times more powerful than Umibozu's, falling from the sky so fast that even the dog system didn't have time to catch it.
"Ah~~~Old Loach, how could it be you!?"
He let out a pitiful howl.
Master Umibo's voice and breath disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if the world had evaporated, and there was no more movement.
"Good guy..."
He listened carefully to the roaring sounds coming from the ground.
Xue Yun put away the devil's wings and muttered to himself: "Fortunately, I'm smart enough to let that 'Titan-level' freak hold the tank. If he really used force to rob the law field, he probably wouldn't end up like that."
How good can it be..."
Oceanic Federal Republic——
As one of the only remaining human civilizations in the post-apocalyptic wasteland era, no one would believe it if there were not one or two hidden methods.
It's a pity that Xue Yun didn't have the courage to show his face.
Otherwise, you really want to see what the "Old Loach" that Umibozu is talking about is.
Anyway, everything has settled.
Yangshou removed the absolute armed state, and Xue Yun's appearance returned to its original state.
Within a short period of time.
Green didn't even have the time to trouble him. What he needed now was not to maintain his fighting power, but a chance to rest.
He took out a gray robe from the system space.
Xue Yun wrapped himself tightly and then cautiously blended into the passing crowd.
A low-key behavior all the way.
Xue Yun went straight to an old house located at No. 186, Xiacheng District.
The house in front of me is in dilapidated condition.
More than half of the two-story wooden building structure has been forcibly knocked down.
The front of the house was piled with various metals, steel and wood, and a closed driveway that was being expanded ran straight through the collapsed side of the wooden house, heading towards the uptown area.
"This place..."
He drooped his eyelids.
Xue Yun smiled helplessly and said: "It should be the old house that guy Zhou Xianling mentioned..."
According to the previous agreement with Zhou Xianling.
Xue Yun was responsible for attracting the firepower of York City's defenders, while Zhou Xianling was waiting for the opportunity to move and choose the most appropriate moment to release his teammates.
After it's done.
The two parties each tried their best to find ways to get out of trouble, and finally met in front of Zhou Xianling's old house in Xiacheng District.
Looking at the crumbling wooden house in front of me.
Xue Yun laughed dumbly.
Zhou Xianling's parents spent their whole life buying real estate for their brothers and sisters, but in the end it was still not enough to offset the greed of the rich and powerful.
In order to expand such a high-speed passage directly to the upper city.
Zhou Xianling's entire family was treated as an outcast and was criticized by others.
Not only did they not receive the compensation they deserved, but they ended up being homeless.
Slowly walking towards the half-remaining wooden house.
Xue Yun reached out and pushed the door, only to find that it was not locked at all.
Click——
Accompanied by a strange sound of opening the door.
The tragic scene in the living room on the first floor immediately came into view.
Bricks and tiles can be seen everywhere on the floor, most of the ceiling has collapsed, and the dilapidated furniture in the house was already covered with a thick layer of dust before they even had time to be moved.
Thought for a moment.
Xue Yun let out a long sigh and still chose to step in.
Accompanied by a creaking sound underfoot.
The floor that was on the verge of collapse occasionally exploded, immediately affecting a window on the side that was out of control and crashed to the ground with a clang.
"who......"
A slender figure suddenly rushed out of the house.
The girl in front of her was thin and her black hair was slightly yellow, obviously due to malnutrition.
But I saw her biting her lip tightly.
He held a rusty kitchen knife tightly in his trembling hands, and behind him there were three equally thin figures trembling.
"Who are you...and why are you here at our house?!" the girl asked warily.
Slightly startled.
Xue Yun instantly guessed their identities.
Besides Zhou Xianling’s four brothers and sisters, who else could it be?!
Who would have thought.
Faced with such a tragic encounter, these four helpless little guys were still guarding this wooden house that could collapse at any time.
Smile slightly.
Xue Yun took a few steps forward and explained: "Don't worry, I am..."
"Don't come over!"
He waved the kitchen knife wildly.
Closing her eyes nervously, the girl shouted hysterically: "No matter what, we will not sign. My eldest brother once said that this house is a memory left by our parents. We will not go anywhere. I am not afraid."
You bad guys, my brother will definitely come back, I’m warning you, he is a very powerful night watchman, get out of my way!!”
He was stunned on the spot with a face full of astonishment.
Faced with the girl's roar, Xue Yun was speechless on the spot.
The three children who had been hiding behind the girl were also biting their lips. One of the boys had tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, and he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth while sobbing.
No matter how scared he was, this little guy didn't want to cry loudly.
From beginning to end, he stubbornly maintained the most basic restraint...
For a while.
Xue Yun felt very sad.
Seeing the sallow and thin appearance of the four children, one can imagine how much hardship they suffered during this period.
"Xiaowen..."
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded from behind.
Xue Yun turned around and took a look.
Zhou Xianling and his surviving team were already standing in front of the broken gate.
"Brother, I'm back..." Zhou Xianling forced out a smile.
