The fire rain lasted all night.

There had been no cries on the ground for a long time, and throughout the long night, only the vibration from the meteorite hitting the ground reminded Anthony that he was still alive.Just now.

Because of the surrounding fire, the room became unbearably hot, and almost everyone was forced to take off their clothes by the heat. It was just the decency of the nobles that allowed them to wear only a little underwear, and most of the clothes were soaked in sweat Yeah, it makes everyone look miserable.

There was no water in the pantry, and the only thing to quench my thirst were some radishes.And eating too much radish will naturally produce some unpleasant gas.In addition, in order to prevent the smoke from burning outside from penetrating into the basement, Anthony had ordered all the ventilation holes to be blocked-this caused an unbearable stench to permeate the whole house.

But no one still cares about these smells at this moment. The huge movement outside made everyone realize that it is a kind of luck that they are still alive.

After confirming that the outside world had completely calmed down, Anthony ordered someone to open the door.

The guards went out carefully, and then reported that there was no danger.

The nobles scrambled out of the stinking basement.

The Duke's entire mansion has completely lost its architectural appearance. The surrounding area, no, it is the place that can be seen in the field of vision. All the buildings have been razed to the ground. Where there were houses in the original memory, there is only one place left now. There are many piles of small mounds. If you look carefully, you will find that they are all stones that have just cooled.

The sky is falling with black ash, as if the god of death has controlled the sky, spreading the snow of death to the world.

Dead bodies can be seen everywhere on the ground, and many bodies have been melted by the meteorite that hit them, and their bodies and stones are almost mixed together.Some lucky ones didn't die, they were just injured by the smash, and they were lucky enough to survive the rain of death until now—but they couldn't hold on any longer.They hid on hillsides or on the edge of dilapidated buildings, coughing and howling.

When they saw Anthony and these seemingly uninjured nobles, they asked them for help.

"Save us, my lord."

"I can give you gold coins..."

Gold coins. Speaking of gold, the Duke seemed to think of something suddenly. He turned around and went to find his storeroom.

The precious spices have been reduced to ashes, but the gold and silver are still there. They were melted by the lava, flowing down the ground like a river for a while, and then solidified again.Anthony watched his new duke prying gold nuggets on the ground with his guard's sword, and suddenly felt a deep sense of absurdity—how could he appoint such a fool as a nobleman?What was he going to do with the gold?do you want to eat?

The entire King City of Elis has become a huge ruins and tombs. The only building that still exists in the field of vision and can be clearly seen is the city wall of Elis.

Anthony called all four guards with swords, and then each gave them a task-to find any living, active and healthy people, anyone!Tell them their king is not dead yet!It's not over yet!

He returned to his original Duke's mansion. Like other buildings, the entire ground structure of the Duke's mansion has completely disappeared, and all property, soldiers, horses and armor have been completely swallowed by lava.His relatives, son, daughter...all disappeared without a trace.But fortunately, the basement he built is still there, and the food and tools in the basement are still there, which somewhat restored Anthony's confidence—as he said before, it is not over, he is still Elis's King... After the disaster, everything will be fine, everything will be fine.

At night, the guards brought back some good news. When the incident happened, some soldiers were chasing a group of thieves outside the city. They escaped the disaster in a valley. There were more than 20 soldiers in total. The only armed force we could find.

At night, Anthony didn't have time to sleep, and took these more than 20 soldiers to every noble house he knew who dug the basement to find living people.

Most of the aristocratic families were not as lucky as Anthony. Their basements were either directly smashed through by meteorites from the upper floor, killing everyone on the spot, or the airtightness was not good enough, and they were choked to death by the thick smoke of the fire.There were some that were the most bleak—they were still alive, knocking for help from inside when they heard noises from outside—but Anthony was powerless to rescue them.Because the entire building on the ground has been completely melted by lava, facing the whole stone like a hill, their manpower and tools are not enough to open a way for the people inside.

Only a small group of nobles who were the luckiest survived. When counting the number of people in the middle of the night, Anthony found that after an attack in the entire King City of Elis, only more than 200 people survived.

Early the next morning, Anthony sent a group of guards again, asking them to follow the four directions to find areas that had not experienced disasters——Anthony still had a trace of fantasy in his heart. The Kingdom of Elis is so big, there are always some places that should be be safe.

But that afternoon, before the guards came back to report the good news, the eastern sky lit up red again!Disaster struck again.

Anthony took everyone to hide in his specially built basement. Unlike the small basements built by other nobles, the basement built by Anthony is not only large in size, but also has all kinds of facilities carefully considered. According to his original "design requirements" for this place "He wanted the whole family to live here for more than a month.You must know that Anthony's entire family, including family members, servants, guards...the sum may exceed a thousand people-in Anthony's imagination, a month's reserve is enough to deal with any disaster.

With such confidence, Anthony and everyone started to take refuge.

Anthony would never have imagined that once he came in, he would never have the chance to go out again.

In the afternoon and evening of that day, the entire ground was the same as the previous one, shaking the ground and shaking people's heart.If it was said that yesterday was like a meteorite rain, then today, it is like a sea of ​​meteorites—Anthony's basement has an observation hole on the ground, so that you can observe what is happening outside. meters—but only three hours later, the observation hole was sealed by lava.

Soon, the gates that could be used for entry and exit were also closed. They used cold water to cool the seeping lava desperately, and gave up a whole room to block the tendency of the magma to continue to seep—but they never possibility of getting out.

Except for the darkness, there is a dead silence.The oppressive heat slowly penetrated in the darkness, and everything was exactly the same as last night.

But the heat wasn't fatal, it just made it unbearable for everyone.

Anthony used an hourglass inside as a timekeeping tool, and almost two full nights and one day passed before he felt calm outside again.

Although there were no radishes here, the air in the entire basement smelled even worse than before. A person could resist not eating or drinking for a few days, but it was impossible to resist incontinence.

Anthony lit a candle, and the soldiers began to try to open the gate.

They used shovels and iron drafts at first, but their tools progressed very inefficiently in the face of hard volcanic rock.

Time passed quietly between the iron pick and the rock, with the sound of collisions again and again.The candles burned out one after another, and the soldiers exhausted their physical strength and took turns to rest, but they hadn't even dug the entrance.

Someone finally realized that this is not the way - they suggested whether to dig out from other places, it is easier to dig out from the soil layer than from the rock.

Antony took the advice, but the moment he gave the order, doom had already befallen him.

The soldiers who were digging suddenly panted heavily and put down the tools in their hands.

The candle shook desperately in panic, as if it had been grasped by the god of death.

Anthony suddenly felt as if his lungs were burning, and he lay down almost subconsciously—this made him feel a little better, but it was only a slight relief.

Almost everyone in the room fell to the floor due to lack of oxygen—Antony suddenly realized a cruel fact—there was not much air here.

"Extinguish the fire!" the others realized, someone shouted.

"No! Can't be extinguished!" Anthony gritted his teeth and shouted—the fire was their only hope of getting out.

He picked up the sword, but dropped it again.Picking up the dagger again - the crawler on the ground, walked to the nearest nobleman.It was just the Duke—he was panting like a fish out of water, fighting Anthony for the last bit of air.

Anthony stabbed the dagger into his body without hesitation.

"Kill all the nobles!" Anthony shouted to the soldiers, "Quick!"

The soldiers staggered holding their swords and stood up, but before they could make any more moves, the last few candles were already extinguished.

The sand of the hourglass has already leaked out. From the moment you choose to stay, the fate of everyone here is doomed.Whether it is a king, a soldier or a commoner, Death treats them all equally.

The kingdom of Elis was not the only one that was destroyed.Anthony didn't know that even if he could leave here alive, it would be difficult for him to survive another 24 hours-the volcano that caused the accident would erupt again tonight, and after this eruption passed, the entire Kingdom of Elis would be completely swallowed by magma.The former plains will become mountains, and their bones will be buried thousands of meters deep underground...

On the entire planet, almost all the surviving human beings are in the mountains in the south, and more than 90.00% of them are from the team brought out by King Elis.
