Chapter 258: Forerunner, Flood Demon and Disclosure(2/2)
"OK."

…
Shortly after.
Within the solar system.
Revolving in the third orbit, Earth, the mother planet that gave birth to mankind, is more prosperous and powerful than ever before.
Far away from the earth, there are jump portals that frequently flash and emit blue light.
It shows that countless cargo ships, cruise ships and other ships are using fault tunnels to travel between the earth and various colonies.
In the Earth's short-range orbit, there are several times more electromagnetic defense platforms deployed than those on the Reach Star, as well as dozens of orbital elevators and transportation hubs larger than those on the Harvest Star.
The space debris originally produced in the mid-to-late 20th century and the early 21st century has long been cleaned up by human engineering ships and will no longer threaten civilian ships, space shuttles and space stations.
At this time.
After leaving the fault tunnel, a giant cruise ship did not choose to go to the nearest hub station. Instead, it adjusted its angle and entered the atmosphere directly.
Soon, it dropped to less than three thousand meters above the surface.
The cruise ship began to slow down and sail, so that tourists could still have an excellent view and take in the unique natural scenery of the earth before disembarking.
After all, this is the first time for most tourists to come to their home planet since they were born.
Below the cruise ship.
First there is a dense forest, and then there is the suburbs of a city. The community is composed of low-rise houses of different shapes.
Further forward, visitors can overlook the high-tech zone with factory buildings.
Looking into the distance, we see a city lined with huge buildings over 100 meters tall.
Its scale is far smaller than the urban areas in Arcadia, Reach or other colonies with a population of over 100 million.
But this is a unique urban form on earth, where the past, modernity and future combine.
The cruise ship passed slowly through the city.
If you look closely, you can find that this city retains many buildings that are over a hundred years old and serve as attractions for tourists to check in and enjoy.
However, there are a large number of people wearing "armor" and "fancy clothes" on the streets.
There are soldiers with a very sci-fi style, as well as warlocks holding staffs and wearing black robes.
Just like characters from games, comics, and movies that have come to reality, it directly raises the liveliness of the entire city to its peak.
In fact, these people played their favorite characters and traveled thousands of miles, even light-years away, to come to this city to participate in the annual "Electronic Entertainment Expo."
Today is August 11th, Atlantic time, and it is also the last day of the "exhibition", which makes the city's sidewalks very crowded.
There is only one city on earth that can be regarded as a "holy place" by players, Raccoon City.
Umbrella's headquarters building is located in the center of Raccoon City, surrounded by clock towers and churches that have a strong sense of the times.
Not far to the east of the headquarters building.
It is also the most prestigious university in the world and even the entire human territory with a history of more than half a century——
Umbrella University.
The entire campus is like a town, with all kinds of facilities. The most numerous buildings are probably science and technology buildings and laboratories.
Because funding is the least important thing to worry about.
at this time.
During the summer vacation, the campus is relatively deserted. Only students who choose to take summer classes are still shuttling between various buildings.
Students whose hometown is outside the solar system either relax by the artificial lake on campus or participate in "exhibitions", but most of them rest in the dormitory building.
suddenly…
"Go online! Go online quickly!"
“They are real!!”
Suddenly, several students shouted loudly, breaking the tranquility of the campus.
In a boys' dormitory with four upper bunks, three students were close to each other and gathered on the bottom bunk near the balcony.
Chapter completed!
