A trip to the second dimension
Chapter 17: Lonely Mountain City of Hope
The top floor of Hope City is the Hope Parliament Hall.
"Did you bring someone here? What kind of person is he?"
The old man with a white beard and white hair and a kind face sat on the main seat and asked the guard captain who walked in quickly to report the situation.
Hearing this, the guard captain hesitated for a moment and seemed to be sorting out his words. After a while, he said in a somewhat tangled tone: "It's hard to describe. The goal of the suspected new law-based scholar is called hope. This year, sixteenth Years old, he has been living in the town of Rolote for six years. It was not until the town fell that he was moved to the Steel City with the refugees and settled down. He entered the recruit camp three years ago and successfully achieved excellent results in actual combat a week ago. Enter the Sunlight Corps."
"I have been observing him since I picked him up in the City of Steel seven hours ago. I can initially conclude that he is an outstanding soldier with ideals and ambitions who is willing to shed blood for the rise of mankind. At the beginning, he seemed to be obsessed with crushing The Presser was very interested, but after half an hour he started tailoring his own combat uniform. Well... his skills are quite skillful, and he seems to be a little better than my mother."
"Well...I probably understand. Fortunately for you, go and rest first."
The old man smiled gently and waved his hand to let the guard captain retreat first.
"It seems that he is a talent that can be created. Let's leave it at that for today. We will make a specific judgment after meeting him tomorrow. In any case, after so many years, a new law-based scholar has emerged. It is us. Fortunately for mankind, I don't know how long my old bones can last. Perhaps, if that young man meets the requirements, I can train him as the next great speaker. After all, he is such a young law-based scholar. This is my first time seeing you. If you cultivate it well, it can keep human beings safe for decades."
Because humans have always been at a disadvantage when facing monsters, the Speaker subconsciously did not have high expectations for hope.
The next day, I stayed in Hope City for one night, and I hoped to get up early in the morning and go out.
Hope City is located in the center of the entire human territory. It is a huge, lonely mountain that exists alone on the plain.
As early as hundreds of years ago, before the end of the world came, humans had already begun the hollowing out and construction renovation project of this lonely mountain.
Until now, this city in the mountain has become the strongest fortress, the last line of defense for mankind, and is also known as the last place of hope for mankind.
Hope City has 1,300 floors within the mountain, and more than 4 million people live in it. However, in fact, this population has already been overloaded and is close to more than 1 million people.
This makes the whole city look very crowded with people coming and going.
In terms of population load, the situation in Steel City is similar.
After all, once the monsters start to attack, it is really difficult for humans to defend the city.
Therefore, over the years, human territory has inevitably been reduced day by day.
When the land is occupied, the refugees who escape can naturally only live in other cities. As a result, the population density becomes larger and larger.
Therefore, the top priority now is that humans must start to fight back against the monsters and regain the lost land bit by bit.
Otherwise, there is no need for apocalyptic monsters to continue attacking humans, and humans will also self-destruct due to their living environment.
"Sir Hope, please follow me to the Hall of Hope Parliament first. The Grand Speaker and other Speakers have also arrived. The Grand Speaker proposed that the meeting should be carried out while eating."
Just after leaving the door, a capable woman in military uniform saluted outside, and then said this with a respectful expression.
"Uh...I know, please."
Ever since he was a child, he was the first person to be called "adult", and he still felt uncomfortable. But he also knew that this was inevitable from the moment his identity was confirmed as a law-based scholar.
"This way please."
The woman nodded and took the lead. Not far away, the two of them boarded a steam elevator guarded by soldiers.
Press the button, and with a "click" sound of gears turning, the elevator begins to climb toward the top of Hope City.
Through the wire fence of the elevator, I hope I can see all the scenes outside.
Although it is inside the mountain, there are a large number of sunstone crystals inside and outside the entire Hope City.
These crystals can completely replace the role of the sun, so humans living in them will not be affected by darkness at all, and even the plants in the mountain can perform photosynthesis normally.
At the same time, the temperature up and down the mountain is also very pleasant. There will be no cold due to high altitude.
After a few minutes of silence, the elevator vibrated slightly.
The top level has arrived.
The female soldier stepped forward and opened the fence door, extending her hand to indicate that she hoped to continue following her.
Different from the one below, although the space on the top floor of Hope City is much smaller, a large number of patrolling elite soldiers can be seen everywhere, and a serious atmosphere can be felt without words.
"We're already here. I hope you can go in by yourself, sir."
After knocking on the door first, the female soldier pushed the door open a crack and then stood sideways.
"Okay, thank you."
Hope smiled, gave a thumbs up to the female soldier, and then stepped forward and pushed the door open to enter the Hall of Hope Parliament.
As soon as I entered, I saw a spacious and bright space, a marble slab that was so shiny that it could reflect light, and a carpet on it.
This is a lobby, and it doesn't look like a place for meetings.
But at this moment, there are already many people standing here waiting.
Apart from some soldiers and assistants, the people facing me should be the speakers and chairmen.
Facing a group of people of such status, as a soldier, my first reaction is to stand at attention and salute.
"Xuwang, a soldier from the third team of the seventh underground area of the Sunlight Corps Iron City, reports here!"
"Hehe, no need to be so formal. Relax a little, we won't eat people."
The white-haired old man at the front took two steps forward and patted Xiwang's shoulder, then looked at Xiwang carefully for a while, then smiled and nodded, and said with satisfaction: "Okay, good boy."
"Then I'll relax a little. To be honest, I'm really a little nervous now."
After hearing what the white-haired old man said, Xiwang was not reserved at all. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then covered his stomach and said embarrassedly: "Well, I heard that we have to have a meeting while eating breakfast. Can we have a meeting now?"
"Uh!"
Seeing the rapid change of Xiwang, the young man, the white-haired old man really didn't react for a while. It seems that he didn't expect Xiwang to be so straightforward and unpretentious.
Is this child a little stupid?
Thoughts turned in his mind, but the white-haired old man still liked Hope's character. He immediately patted his shoulder with a smile and said, "I see you are hungry. Do you want to have breakfast?"
"Okay, then let's not talk nonsense and go to the 'meeting' directly. You are still growing up, so you can't be hungry."
Please give me some recommendation votes. The next world is Marvel.
