Chapter 883: Chapter 881,20 minutes
“Use nuclear weapons!”
In a certain secret military base, an old man with a head full of gray hair roared.
Everyone in the military base could clearly see the tragic state of the city through the satellite images. Now that it had become like that, they naturally had no other concerns.
“But to use nuclear weapons… do you want to contact…”
Someone beside him retorted softly.
“Immediately, launch now!”
The gray-haired old man roared sternly. As he spoke, he had already pasted himself in front of the screen.
On the screen, the huge monster was rapidly growing. Just a moment ago, it was only 1,000 meters wide, but now it had already reached 2,000 meters.
One had to know that only a few minutes had pa.s.sed.
What was even more terrifying was that it was still reproducing at an extremely shocking speed. Dozens of truck-sized bugs had already appeared in the ruins.
Seeing this scene, his pupils continuously contracted, and all the hair on his body stood up.
Then, he did not care about what others thought, and directly rushed to the launch pad and pressed the launch b.u.t.ton.
In an instant, a huge nuclear bomb soared into the sky and shot into the distance.
However, the nuclear weapon military base was not as dense as the other bases. The nuclear bomb flew for a full five minutes before it reached the vicinity of the monster.
At this time, the huge bug had grown to a height of three thousand meters, and its body was as huge as a mountain!
Seeing the nuclear bomb approaching, the huge bug suddenly let out a shrill cry. The sound waves with extremely strong penetrative power instantly spread out in all directions. Wherever it pa.s.sed by, everything turned into dust.
Even the sh.e.l.l of the nuclear bomb instantly distorted.
Boom!
A huge mushroom cloud rose up. The nuclear bomb exploded thousands of meters away from the huge bug. The terrifying impact forced the huge bug back a few steps, and then it fell to the ground.
What followed was a terrifying high temperature and deadly radiation.
However, these did not seem to have much effect on the giant worm. Instead, the small worms melted under the high temperature.
“Hiss!”
The giant worm stood up and let out a hiss again, and then ran toward another city.
..
This scene was clearly seen by the leaders of all the countries around the world.
In less than a minute, the leaders of every country held a video conference.
“What should we do? It’s time for you big countries to step forward!”A leader of a small country said in panic.
“According to the computer modeling, this monster can grow to the extent that it can destroy the Earth in an hour.”
“What? An Hour? Our country’s plane can’t even fly there in an hour!”
“In fact, we only have 20 minutes, because in 20 minutes, it will grow to a stage where it will be completely fearless of nuclear weapons.”
Once these words were said, all the leaders fell silent.
But only after a few seconds.., someone said, “Don’t think about it. Now, immediately, with the monster as the center, within a radius of 500,000 kilometers, all the nuclear weapons in the nuclear weapons base will be fired at the monster at the same time. If it doesn’t succeed, then we will die.”
“But if we do that… half of the continent will be destroyed… hundreds of millions of people will die…”
“Shut up! I’ve given the Order!”
“As for the residents living on that land, inform them through various media. Let them… return to their families in the last 10 to 20 minutes of their lives…”
At this point, the voice choked up, and the video conference started to Be Filled with sobs.
However, the order was still pa.s.sed down. At this moment, the entire world and country had reached a consensus.
They would do anything to destroy that monster, and it had been less than twenty minutes since that monster had appeared.
..
A moment later, a video suddenly appeared on a huge billboard of a landmark building in northern China.
It was a video of a solemn-looking old man in a military uniform bowing.
“I’m sure everyone knows about the appearance of the monster through the news. Since time is of the essence, I’ll be brief.
“You have less than 20 minutes left to live. In order to ensure that the Earth will not be destroyed, the higher-ups have decided to use a nuclear bomb.
That monster will grow to the point where a nuke can’t destroy it in 20 minutes, so this is the only way, and when it does, you will all be affected, without exception.
This is not a joke, I’m sorry.
Also, don’t panic, don’t riot, don’t waste your last 20 minutes on unnecessary things.
If the planet survives this, history will remember you.”
Other than the huge screen, all other channels were also broadcasting this video.
Over half the continent, hundreds of cities quickly learned of this news.
Soon, hundreds of cities fell into panic.
However, the panic did not last long, because all the screens had turned into a monster that was rapidly growing.
Looking at the ferocious image and listening to the sharp hissing sound, most people quickly accepted the reality.
Some ordinary people who were close to their homes put down their work and quickly rushed home.
As for those who were far away and could not make it back in time, they took out their phones and computers and connected to the videos with their families.
..
In a corner of the city, a homeless man in dirty clothes raised his head and looked at the huge monster on the screen of the skysc.r.a.per in the distance. He sighed softly and then sat quietly by the roadside, he picked up the stray dog that had been accompanying him.
People were coming and going, but the traffic police still had not left their posts. They were still directing the cars that were rushing back and forth to go home.
Looking at the cars and pedestrians, the homeless man’s eyes were filled with confusion.
He had long lost something like home. What should he do in the last twenty minutes of his life?
WUUUUU..
At this moment, the stray dog in his arms stuck out its tongue and gently licked his face.
The homeless man lowered his head and looked at the big black dog that was as thin as him. It was dirty all over and had a kind look in its eyes. He was slightly startled. Then, he suddenly laughed and hugged the big black dog even tighter.
At this moment, an anxious voice came from behind.
“If you really have nothing better to do, come in and have a full meal! Eat whatever you want, d.a.m.n it! I’m in a hurry to go home!”
..
On the other side, in a top villa in the city, an old man was lying quietly on a recliner, looking at the blue sky.
A middle-aged man in a suit beside him looked at such a leisurely old man and said impatiently, “Chairman, the helicopter has been prepared for you! You should quickly board the plane!”
“Sigh, Xiao Li, what’s the use? There’s no time.”
The old man shook his chair and glanced at the phone next to him.
The middle-aged man stomped his feet when he saw this and turned around to rush to the tarmac not far away.
Just as he was about to leave, the phone next to the old man rang.
Seeing the familiar number, the old man smiled and pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
“Dad, I heard that something happened to you! Take advantage of these last few minutes to quickly explain your will?”
Hearing this, the old man’s smile suddenly froze, and the reclining chair also stopped shaking.
The person on the phone was still talking to himself.
“Dad, please say something. I have contributed a lot to this company. It should be okay to give me 50% of the shares, right?”
Sigh..
With a long sigh, the old man hung up the phone. His eyes were a little lost. The huge villa was like a huge cage at this moment, making it hard for him to breathe.
After a few seconds, the phone rang again. The old man looked at it and saw that it was a video invitation.
After choosing to accept it, a man and a woman, two half-grown dolls, were crying loudly in the video. They were his grandson and granddaughter who were traveling abroad.
Meanwhile, his daughter was crying secretly behind the two dolls.
“Grandpa, don’t Die!”
Although the child’s words were direct, the old man’s face revealed a kind smile.
“It’s okay. Grandpa is old, and this life is worth it. You have to live well in the future and listen to your mother.”
“No! Don’t!”
The grandson cried until his face was covered in tears. He was still holding a toy with a shapeshifting device in his hand. No matter how he shook it, the shapeshifting device did not have any reaction.
Seeing this scene, the corners of the old man’s eyes were slightly moist.
In this huge villa, he had thought that he had everything. But now, he knew what it meant to truly have everything.
Fortunately, although he was a little embarra.s.sed just now, he did not leave with nothing.
