Chapter 576 Washing(1/2)
"Crunch... crunch..."
At the subway entrance, where gunfire and artillery fire had originally been, there was now only flesh mixed with bones, and the sound of "eating".
These brave soldiers, whose names were engraved with Chinese characters on their nameplates, only persisted for half a minute in the face of the alien wave before they were mercilessly swallowed up.
I saw the alien species directly swallowing the dying soldiers with broken limbs and arms and mechanical skeletons into their mouths, chewing them and then swallowing them into their abdomen.
It seemed that because he was preoccupied with dealing with the soldiers, the aliens did not immediately notice the fortifications and the numerous time bombs placed in the corners of the underground passages.
Of course, there is no conspicuous red light countdown on the appearance of these bombs, they just look like ordinary iron boxes.
When all the soldiers are swallowed by the alien species...
"Boom! Boom!!"
Fire spread everywhere, engulfing everything in the blink of an eye.
The fireball even poured into the subway platform along the passage.
Following the flames and fireballs was a shock wave that could shatter a human body into pieces, while simultaneously destroying the subway entrance and everything nearby into ashes.
——
…
boom!!
In the tunnel deep underground, a wave-like earthquake was felt.
Wow!!
Dust, soil and a large amount of debris fell from above, which also caused the already dim lights to either explode one by one, or start to flicker due to poor contact.
"Cough...cough!"
"Shh!"
And here, as the smoke and dust filled the air, several coughs and hisses resounded.
It turned out that there were more than a dozen surviving citizens hiding in the substation room on the right side of the tunnel, and judging by their faces, most of them were junior high school students between the ages of 13 and 15.
The remaining three men and women, judging by their appearance and age, should be the teachers of this group of junior high school students.
The shock was fleeting, and the transformer room, which was not spacious and narrow, fell into silence again.
"Hush...hiss!"
But soon, the silence was interrupted by slight sobs.
Some junior high school students who were relatively young and courageous were on the verge of collapse, but they did not dare to cry loudly, so they had to shut up tightly, but the tears could not be restrained from falling.
no way.
Even the teachers who are adults are terrified, let alone these immature children?
The city where they were located, the defense line where Gao Tiankuo led his troops, and even the entire Eurasian continent were all subjected to large-scale raids by alien species from west to east.
The defense lines in Asia and the Middle East were torn apart almost in an instant, and the city they were in was located in southwest Asia. It originally belonged to Armenia, but since the establishment of the United Human Government, it has also belonged to the "benchmark" Xia Kingdom in Asia.
Governance.
This is why the soldiers guarding the subway entrance all have name tags with Chinese characters.
Not long ago, they were dispersed by the chaotic crowd and encountered a tank-level alien species. Fortunately, they encountered the group of soldiers who had sacrificed their lives.
But the entire city has been surrounded by alien species, and military and civilian airports were targeted by alien species at the first moment of the raid.
With no hope of evacuation, they had no choice but to hide in this subway tunnel. The soldiers quickly built a simple defense at the entrance of the subway, preparing to fight the aliens until the end.
Now…
Although the teachers didn't know much about military affairs, no matter how new they were, they knew that the earthquake just now meant that all the soldiers had fallen.
At the same time, this also means that the chance of them escaping from here is infinitely close to zero.
Of course, teachers will not tell the truth.
"Children, teachers." The middle-aged teacher who looked like the director calmed down, lowered his voice, and said comfortingly: "Those soldiers have won a hard-won chance for us to survive. We should make good use of it.
Weeping decadently here.
Okay, wipe your tears, ah, children, you will definitely make it out alive."
After the words fell, the children's sobbing was relieved.
After all, this director can be regarded as the representative of "kindness" in the school.
"Director Konyang, do you... have any good suggestions?" a female teacher asked.
"Haha, of course." Konyang smiled, took out a military pistol, and continued: "That platoon leader Lin gave me this just now."
"So...?" The female teacher was still confused.
"Alien species have extremely developed hearing and vision, so... I will be alone, escape to the west as much as possible, and try to make some big noise."
As Konyang spoke, his eyes swept over the female teacher, another male teacher, and then looked at the confused students:
"Teacher Rahman, you are the class teacher of these children, you know them better, and Teacher Iben is the physical education teacher of our school.
The child... will be left to you two." At the end of the sentence, Konyang sighed heavily and handed the pistol to the physical education teacher named Iben.
"Director, what is this?!"
"Iben! Leave the last chance to your child! Also, you are the strongest among us, don't shirk it!"
The physical education teacher thought that the director who volunteered to be the bait was going to use a pistol to protect himself, but who knew that the director actually left his only weapon with the children!
The physical education teacher wanted to refuse, but after seeing the director's unyielding gaze, he had no choice but to accept it with wet eyes.
Who doesn't want to live?
Anyway, there is absolutely no way that he would take the initiative to be a bait. Being selfish is instinctive. However, after seeing that the other party still maintains the brilliance of humanity even though he is in the quagmire of despair...
"Don't worry, director, I will protect everyone."
"hehe."
Konyang raised his hand and patted the physical education teacher on the shoulder, then rubbed the heads of several crying students, and then resolutely opened the metal door amidst everyone's reluctant whispers and choking, and his figure quickly disappeared.
in the dark.
"When...when..."
Soon, there was a faint metallic noise coming from the west end of the tunnel, like a steel pipe hitting the track.
"Boom...boom..."
Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of intensive noise.
It seems that the collapse caused by the explosion did not stop the alien species for long, and these biological weapons were already sweeping through the tunnel in an orderly manner.
Waited for a few seconds.
The physical education teacher held the gun in his right hand, pushed the door again with his left hand, leaned out half of his body to observe for a moment, and then waved his hand after confirming that the left and right sides were temporarily safe, indicating that the female head teacher and the children could come out.
Next, the children lined up in two rows, while the two teachers ran one behind the other, trotting towards the east subway exit.
There were no surprises along the way.
I don’t know whether it was the alien species that were anxious to push inland, or whether the director who acted as a decoy still played a role, but anyway, the group of them arrived at the terminal platform smoothly.
They helped each other climb up to the platform, and when they came to the escalator that had been out of service for a long time, everyone did not dare to breathe.
Because the top represents fresh air, and it also represents the exit where there is a high possibility of encountering an army of alien species.
He looked up.
The physical education teacher held the pistol tightly, of course, without a golden finger. After all, he was also a military enthusiast.
"Rahman." As he stepped forward, he warned: "If it takes more than two minutes for me to go up...you can continue to hide down there as long as you can, and survive until the last moment."
"Okay." The female head teacher nodded solemnly.
After saying that, the physical education teacher quickly climbed up two or three steps in one step, reaching the top of the escalator in just a few seconds, and his figure disappeared as he went forward.
Looking at the empty space above.
An older boy suddenly became sad: "Director Konyang said the same thing...and now Mr. Iben..."
The boy did not continue speaking, but it was not difficult for everyone to guess what the rest of the words were.
After all, we have been at war with alien species for so many years.
They hid on both sides of the escalator and spent their days staring at the exit above.
The head teacher, on the other hand, was sweating continuously on his forehead, his eyes were fixed on the watch on his left hand, and the sound of the pointer ticking forward was particularly harsh.
The minute hand made two complete turns...
Another half circle passed...
This indicates…
"Hey! Rahman! Children! Quick! Come up!!"
