Chapter 173
The southern part of Crescent City is a slum, where the poorest group of residents of Crescent City lived, but at this time, even the residents of the slums almost ran away.
The whole slum, only a pair of grandma and granddaughter are left.
The houses in slums are mostly glued with rotten wood and worn-out fabrics. This kind of house is a characteristic of slums. Every winter, because this kind of house freezes to death many people.
In a dilapidated house in a slum.
"Leah, run away and leave me alone."
A dying old man lying on the bed, her hair grey-white, her hair is dull and looks As if caused by chronic malnutrition, her face and hands were engraved with wrinkles left by the years.
Beside the bed, a thin silhouette squatted there. Their family was so poor that they didn't even have a wooden bench.
"Grandma, Leah is the only family member left. I will not leave you behind and run for my life."
The girl named Leah has long brown hair. She looks very young, but at the age of seventeen or eighteen, she has a slender figure with a little freckles on her face, and she looks like a youthful breath.
It’s just that her dress doesn’t look as beautiful as her age. She is covered in a layer of tattered linen, which is usually used by wealthy people as rags. .
The whole room was dirty, and it seemed that there was nothing to use.
"Leah, is there any food at home? I'm hungry."
Leah heard her grandma’s words, tears rolled down, she froze for a long time, not knowing how to answer. In fact, she hasn't eaten a full meal for many days.
Leah resisted her sadness, wiped her tears with her dirty hands, leaving a black mark on her face.
"Grandma, I'll find food for you."
Lea stood up and was about to walk outside the house.
"Is this this one? A047."
"Yes, sir."
Outside the house, two rough voices came in.
Leah suddenly became nervous when she heard the voice of the man. This is the slum of Crescent City. Even in the heyday of Crescent City, the security environment here is very poor, let alone Said that the current Crescent City has almost become an empty city.
dong dong dong ——!
The door of Leah's house was knocked.
Leah heard a knock outside the door, her heartbeat was like beating a drum, dong dong dong kept ringing, because she was too nervous, sweat oozes from her forehead.
"Aren't you at home?"
"It should be at home, this is the only one left."
As he said, the knock on the door became more intense.
"Anyone?"
Leah heard the peng peng sounded by the door, and anxious tears flowed down her cheeks, and her mouth made a "Woo" With a sound, she was so scared that she immediately covered her mouth tightly with her dirty hands.
"Someone!"
Outside the door, the two clone warriors looked at each other, kicked the door open, and broke into the door directly.
"Ah!"
Seeing her door being kicked open, Leah was so scared that she screamed loudly, like a frightened rabbit.
The two clone warriors outside the door, wearing dark green special combat uniforms, just didn't carry any weapons or equipment compared to normal times, not to mention Gauss rifles, not even a dagger.
They stood outside the door carrying two bags of rice, their expressions dignified.
When they saw that there was only a little girl and an old woman lying in bed, they relaxed.
"Why didn't you open the door just now?"
One of the clone warrior asked loudly.
But when he saw Leah's lovable body trembling with fright, he immediately understood the reason.
Another clone warrior next to him, carrying a bag of rice, walked in slowly. He scanned around and confirmed that there was no danger, and said to Leah in front of him: "Hello, new Moon City has been taken over by my lord. Starting today, you will be a subject of my lord."
Leah’s trembling body was a little better when she heard this.
After a while, she hesitated and said: "Isn't Crescent City owned by Viscount McCaus?"
"No," the clone warrior repeated," Now the owner of New Moon City, Fang Cheng, remember. This is food for you. When the living corpses outside the city are all cleaned up, it will be when you resume farming."
"Fang Cheng?" Leah repeated.
The clone warrior nodded, after taking a look at the room, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Right," the clone warrior seemed to suddenly remember something, "The houses in this city will all be torn down and rebuilt. I hope you can cooperate when the time comes."
After that, the two clone warriors left without looking back, leaving only two bags of rice on the ground.
"Food!"
Lea muttered suddenly remembered what the clone warrior had just said, and when she saw them leaving, she hurried over.
The rice bag is a modern packaging, and the top is sealed by a sealing line. In a short time, Leah, who has been hungry for many days, can't open it.
Leah worked for a long time, finally bit the sealing line with her teeth and opened the rice bag.
"What food is this?" Leah grabbed a handful of white rice and said to herself.
She had never seen this kind of food, and for a while, she actually stayed there.
......
A spaceship flew over from far to near in the sky above Crescent City.
In the sky, a black spot is getting bigger and bigger, and finally there is a feeling of covering the heavens, shielding the sun. It is the Demonic Artifact that Fang Cheng is flying on the floating island.
The hull of the spaceship is ash-gray, and there are two wings like wings at the stern. From the outside, it does not appear to be able to float in the air.
Fang Cheng stood by the fence of the spaceship, looking at Crescent City at his feet.
Compared with the time he left, New Moon City has not changed much, but some buildings in the city have been pushed a lot.
This was done by Fang Cheng’s account of the clone warrior. He had long looked down upon this old and dilapidated building. He wanted to build a modern city in another world, and Fang Cheng’s C- Type 1 engineering robot makes Fang Cheng's idea possible.
In Crescent City, the clone warrior saw huge UFOs appearing in the sky, and each one became very nervous. This was the first time they saw such a huge flying machine.
Even in the knowledge they have instilled, whether it is Earth or another world, there is no such a huge aircraft. The spaceship in front of you is several times larger than the largest transport aircraft on Earth.
The clone warrior didn't know if the aircraft in front of them was threatened, each of them quickly mobilized like enemies.
The electromagnetic railgun arranged in the city was immediately erected, the muzzle was aimed at the spaceship, and the spaceship in front of it could be destroyed by a single order.
"Sir, do I need to shoot it down with an electromagnetic railgun?"
Beside A003, a clone warrior called for instructions.
A003 is holding the telescope for distance measurement, looking at the spaceship in the sky, frowning.
