"...The magnitude of the earthquake is only seven at most, but the epicenter is very shallow? And the center of the earthquake is in downtown Los Angeles? Hey, hey..."

Ms. Freya, who was lying on the ground, only had time to say a few words to the people from the Earthquake Bureau, and her mobile phone lost signal.

Immediately afterwards, another wave of violent tremors came from the soles of the feet, and many buildings that had just escaped catastrophe collapsed in an instant.

Ms. Freya raised her head blankly, with a dull expression, staring blankly at the disaster around her, falling into unprecedented despair and panic.

It wasn't until the burst water pipe in the ground and the muddy water that suddenly gushed out poured her head and face that Freya realized that she wanted to go back to her office to direct the earthquake relief work, "...Christina! Christina ! Where are you, come here!"

She called her transgender private secretary like this, and at the same time looked around with the help of the burning fire not far away.

Then, Ms. Freya saw Christina lying on her back in a bush, her eyes wide open, her expression ferocious, but she remained motionless.

Ms. Freya, who had a bad premonition, quickly reached out her hand and found that this guy had no heartbeat or breath.

"...This is... a sudden death because of the Corona virus?!"

This is the most frightening covert killing of the COVID-19 virus—the blood oxygen concentration detected by many patients is already very low, and they are in a state of shock and sudden death at any time.But the patient feels good about himself, thinking that he is the same or almost the same as a normal person.

Patients with other diseases, once the blood oxygen concentration is low, will show obvious symptoms such as purple lips, and feel severe discomfort at the same time

However, even if a person infected with the COVID-19 virus has severe myocardial damage, there is still no abnormality in the lips, and there is no personal feeling. However, the actual blood oxygen saturation is only 30%-50%, and the breathing will stop at any time. Once the disease breaks out, it will die in a very short time.

——It can be called "Ludao" or "Pujie", the former is a noun and the latter is a verb.

Obviously, Christina, the transgender secretary at this time, was already unknowingly seriously ill, and experienced a lot of intense exercise in the earthquake, and finally suddenly became ill, and it was too late to call for help. dead.

Freya, who had reacted, hurriedly strode far away, then took out a mask from her shirt pocket, put it on her face, then stretched out her hand and sketched a sign of the cross on her chest, "... may God bless you soul, Christina, I will always remember you..."

After that, she grabbed her handbag, and with the help of the surrounding firelight and the faint illumination of the mobile phone flashlight, she stumbled back to her workplace.

However, I don't know if it was an illusion, but when Ms. Freya was staggering and running, there was always intermittent singing echoing in her ears.

The song was majestic and grand, lingering over Los Angeles, filled with a kind of indescribable, shuddering horror.

It is as if hundreds of millions of tons of seawater broke through the Mariana Trench and rushed straight into the sky, turning into countless sound waves that swirled out in an interlaced manner.

"...Looking at the sky, high above.

It's time for the stars to return!

The past is gone, and the end is approaching.

The seal has been broken, the Old One has awakened..."

——The vibrating rhythm that directly hits the soul, the magical melody that endlessly loops... lingering in the ears of every survivor, like a nightmare that will never wake up: That night, countless people in Los Angeles claimed to have heard "Old Days" Dominator's Hymn" resounds in the air!

At the same time, Akiyama Megumi and the three fox-eared witches were also hurrying on their way amid the sound of "Ode to the Old Ones" resounding through the night sky.

Chapter 77: Los Angeles Earthquake

"...Looking at the sky, high above,

It's time for the stars to return!

The past is gone, the end is near,

The seal has been destroyed, the Old Ones wake up!

They will come back and humanity will wake up.

They bring fear, they call in their name.

When they come back, hope to return to darkness,

Ignorance and stupidity, the new masters,

Where they are, they are the rules.

Starry and hot, boiling and quivering,

Heralding the end of the day..."

The mysterious singing of "Ode to the Old Ones", accompanied by the bloody red moon and the few stars, lingered in the night sky of Los Angeles.

And on the ground under the crimson moon, there is dust, orange fire, shrill screams, black smoke, scorching heat waves...

——When Akiyama Megumi and others rushed out of the University of Southern California campus, what they saw was such a tragic scene.

Looking back, under the light of the red moon and fire, those red brick buildings with artistic atmosphere on the campus have already collapsed, tilted, collapsed... In the shadowy darkness, there are everywhere There were bursts of ugly howls like slaughtering pigs, which hurt people's eardrums more than a thousand spatulas scraping the ground-I don't know how many people were injured in the earthquake, or were buried at this time. under the ruins.

However, Akiyama Megumi and the others couldn't care less about saving people at this time, but couldn't wait to arrest the cat god Buster who caused the disaster.

——It was just a day or two of inattention, and this dead cat caused so much damage. If she is allowed to run away again, who knows what will happen next?

It wasn't until this time that Megumi Akiyama remembered that cats are cute and cruel, small things full of S attributes, and cruel games of cat and mouse...

Mistake!How could I safely leave her at home, but thought that this guy would be peaceful and not cause trouble?

Fortunately, the shikigami contract between Buster the black cat and Megumi Akiyama still exists, so as long as Megumi Akiyama uses his spiritual power to transform into a fox-eared girl, he can immediately sense Buster's position. It's easier than turning on GPS navigation.

——This is why Buster, the black cat goddess, had objections early in the morning, but had to wait until Hui Akiyama and others came out to participate in the performance, mixed with many ordinary people, and it was inconvenient to show extraordinary abilities at will. Make trouble behind the scenes.

Now, Megumi Akiyama immediately sensed where the cat god Buster was - an old neighborhood in Venice Beach.

However, the next step, how they should get from the USC campus to Venice Beach, is another troublesome matter.

Because after the earthquake, everyone was running out in a hurry. As a result, Dolores' car was hit by a jeep and deformed, the glass was broken, and a tire was flat. Tires—Although the engine can still start, the women dare not ride in this broken car even if they are killed: they are not magical happy Indians who can drive a "bare car" with no doors, windows, and shells, only the engine and wheels "On the road.

Well, I still have to sit on a plastic chair tied up with a rope, carry an old-fashioned large tape recorder on my shoulder, and play pop music accompaniment BGM by spinning the tape...

Although there are a few other cars in the parking lot, cars these days are already intelligent, and stealing them is not as easy as in old Hollywood movies. The electric spark "Zi La" can be started by touching it...

——Cars that are so easy to steal will already be nostalgic classic cars in 2020, and it is rare to see a few of them on the street.

Among the four sisters of Akiyama Megumi, there are no professional car thieves, so facing these locked cars, it is really impossible to start.

Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road. After a few people wandered around, they quickly found an electric tricycle for gardeners, also known as a three-wheeler. There were small saplings and large scissors in the cart—— A certain gardener at USC forgot to pull out the key before leaving, so it happened to be cheap for the girls.

Looking at the embarrassing shape and familiar trademark of this blue three-legged car, Megumi Akiyama couldn't help but be reminded of long-standing memories.

But before she finished sighing, Dolores jumped into the driver's seat and turned on the lights on her own.

"...Hey, can you drive this thing? Let me do it!" Akiyama Megumi said standing beside the tricycle.

"...No problem, I drive this kind of green and environmentally friendly electric tricycle every day on my farm at home!"

The red-necked girl Dolores pressed the horn disapprovingly, and then started the Chinese-made three bungee car on her own, and immediately let it sound a familiar accent to Akiyama Hui, "...Please pay attention, Reverse! Please pay attention, reverse!"

"...[Attention, back up]! This is the first Chinese sentence I learned."

Dolores repeated with a smile, the mandarin is really correct, "...Okay, girls, get in the car! It's time for us to go! Let's go and catch that nasty bad cat Get off the pot! Then catch that disobedient fugitive slave, hang him up and beat him hard!"

The other three girls looked at each other, Sonia raised her double-barreled shotgun, Valentina waved a baseball bat, and Megumi Akiyama pulled out a samurai sword:

"...Aha! Kill!"

sex

A Chinese-made electric tricycle carrying four red and white armed witches staggered out of the USC campus with bright lights on, ran over the cracked and broken roads in the earthquake, and drove On the streets of Los Angeles.

I have to say that the cityscape and streetscape of Los Angeles after the earthquake is really...a bit miserable.

—The neighborhoods near the epicenter were all without power and looked dark in the night.The dazzling night view of the downtown business district, which was like a river of stars, has long since ceased to exist.On the contrary, the raging flames ignited in all directions, reflecting the night sky red, and contrasting with the red moon hanging high in the sky.

No way, the price of wood in the United States is cheap, and there are naturally many wooden houses. Even concrete houses or brick buildings often have a lot of wooden decorations and board structures.Usually there is nothing wrong with it, but if there is a fire, it will definitely burn a large area.

However, the earthquake also damaged the underground water pipes, causing "fountains" to splash everywhere on the road, but the fire hydrants were out of water, so even if firefighters wanted to fight the fire, there was no water source to use.

——Unless there happen to be any ponds or rivers near the fire site, you can use a vehicle-mounted water pump to top it up.

To make matters worse, the earthquake in Los Angeles took place less than an hour ago, and the city was already full of thugs, people everywhere were robbing houses for zero-dollar purchases, there were constant "bang bang" gunshots, and there were many parked cars on the side of the road. The car, set on fire maliciously, burned into a bright fireball.

Like any disorder in a major American city, Los Angeles immediately after the earthquake became a rampant arena for all kinds of criminal activity.

There is no way, the United States, which is rich in martial arts, was originally a country with a high proportion of civilian guns. After the outbreak of the "Corona" plague, with the failure of epidemic prevention and the deterioration of the economy, the sense of insecurity among the people has become more and more Strong, so that the proportion of civilians with guns continues to hit new highs.

In the United States, however, it is not a matter of the government losing control of the grassroots, it simply has never really controlled the grassroots.

It's no wonder that once there is a catastrophe and the order collapses for a short time, there will be lunatics and anarchist carnivals everywhere.

Hey, it’s no wonder that after New Orleans was hit by typhoons and floods that year, the U.S. troops transferred to the city were actually fully armed, wearing bulletproof vests, driving armored vehicles, and entering the city with live ammunition for disaster relief. This vote of U.S. troops is here to massacre the city.

Now it seems that in the United States where guns are everywhere, even if there is a well-intentioned disaster relief, you really have to use guns to open the way!

Otherwise, who knows if those poor-looking disaster victims will suddenly shoot you a string of bullets?

At the same time, in the night sky of Los Angeles, the mysterious singing of "Ode to the Old Ones" is still echoing over and over again.

Under the dazzling flames that made half of the sky red, many people heard this ethereal singing voice, and after recognizing the lyrics, they were inexplicably amazed by it——despair, destruction, doomsday, fear... This is so amazing. Are you talking about Los Angeles right now?

What's the matter with this song?Was it the angel who sounded the trumpet of destruction to bring down the judgment of Sodom and Gomorrah on Los Angeles?

Well, by the standards of the ancient Hebrews who wrote the Bible, today's Los Angeles may be even more depraved than Sodom and Gomorrah!

Among them, a small number of fans of the Cthulhu Mythos heard that this was "Ode to the Old Ones", and they were even more frightened:

Could it be that tonight is the time when the stars return to their positions?Will there really be the return of the ancient gods and the old rulers next?

Oh!No--

Akiyama Hui and others on the electric tricycle, of course, also heard the singing echoing in the night sky, and subconsciously asked the god they served.

The ancient fox god Yuzao did not have a definite answer to this before, but based on her past experience, she roughly speculated that this may be because the black cat goddess Buster that caused the Los Angeles earthquake was originally an American original Cthulhu myth A member of the system, and currently the master of Buster, Akiyama Megumi, happened to be listening to "The Old Ones" on the campus of Southern University at the time when the world changed...

As a result, some kind of indescribable resonance was triggered, and the burst of aura played this Cthulhu myth song over and over again.

——In the era full of aura in the past, whenever the world changed, occasionally there would be masterpieces of divine light and ethereal background BGM of fairy music.

Although this explanation is a bit far-fetched, but mysticism is a thing that doesn't make sense in many cases, so I can only let it go.

In short, earthquakes, fires, riots, shootings, and the "Ode to the Old Ones" lingering in the night sky made the atmosphere in the city even more terrifying.

On one side, houses collapsed, the ground cracked, flames billowed, and black smoke filled the sky; on the other side, looting mobs and middle-class people defending their homes were firing at each other, with bullets flying randomly, coupled with brutal police suppression and aftershocks that erupted from time to time, the Los Angeles brought more casualties and disasters.

Fortunately, the "artificial earthquake" caused by the cat god Buster's use of spells to forcibly transfer the spiritual veins is still somewhat different from the real earthquake caused by the crustal movement. Specifically, the scope of damage is relatively small, limited to From an apartment in the southern part of Los Angeles where the spirit vein was originally located, to the destination of the spirit vein transfer, the Magnolia Nursing Home in Venice Beach, spread out along this central axis for about seven or eight kilometers to both sides.

As for the extent of the earthquake's damage, it happened to be the most prosperous and affluent city center in Los Angeles, with a population of 400 million people...

That's something that can't be helped.

At least, Pasadena, where a certain man who "can top five divisions" once lived, Irvine, where Chinese immigrants live, Beverly Hills, where celebrities gather, Hollywood's Walk of Fame, and Mali, where billionaires favor Cloth Coast, Universal Studios, Disneyland, the Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles where a large number of container ships are moored... These relatively high-value locations are still intact for the time being.

In other words, Akiyama Megumi and the others can find a way to bypass the epicenter and make a big circle to Venice Beach to catch cats.

Relying on the "lucky" BUFF and divine divination that the ancient fox god Yuzao had blessed them with, Megumi Akiyama commanded Dolores who was driving, trying to avoid the city center and take a safer and longer route. Stopped by mobs, stray bullets and fire from time to time.

——Because most of the houses far away from the city center are made of wood, and they are extremely dry in the desert climate of Los Angeles, it is an excellent fuel.

At this moment, in front of Megumi Akiyama, he just saw a three-story wooden house collapse in the raging flames, and a large cloud of choking smoke and dust was rolled up. Several people who stayed outdoors to escape the earthquake were caught off guard. The hot ashes hurt his eyes, and he cried out loudly.

At the same time, scattered embers and sparks flew from the collapsed buildings, falling on the surrounding roofs, and more flames sprang up in an instant.

Seeing that the road ahead was instantly engulfed by the sea of ​​flames, Dolores had no choice but to make a U-turn around the road again. At this time, the electric tricycle, which was not fully charged, had been running continuously for more than two hours. Hui's "Tritium" can be charged, but it has long since broken down.

But because of repeated detours and street gun battles, they were still four or five kilometers away from Venice Beach at this time.

The "nuclear-powered electric three bungee" that was carrying four armed witches bounced along the rough road illuminated by fire, passed several black-skinned thugs carrying large and small bags, and passed through the deadly road. As the thick smoke and flames continued to struggle towards Venice Beach, the Russian girl Sonia, who happened to look up at the night sky, suddenly let out a scream: "... Aurora! How can there be aurora here?"

Hearing this, Akiyama Hui hurriedly looked up at the sky, and immediately saw a magnificent spectacle.

PS: A history writer discussed with me a question today. If Roosevelt failed to win the election in 1940 in violation of convention and won a third presidential term, and the president of the United States was replaced by Wilkie of the Republican Party, what would happen next? Will Japan still talk about collapse?How would the process of World War II change?

This question feels very complicated, and my brain was a little bit down for a while, so I couldn't answer it. What do readers think about this?

Chapter 78: Bad cat, something happened to you!

Over Los Angeles, in the night illuminated by the crimson moon and illuminated by fire, thousands of dreamlike dark green light belts appeared at some point, smooth as silk, illusory like neon, in the dark sky It swayed freely, constantly changing magnificent colors.

Most of the time, they are green, but they also turn red, white, yellow, and purple from time to time... gorgeous and eye-catching, and intriguing.

Could this be... Aurora? !

The traces left by the legendary Nordic Valkyrie Valkyrie parading the sky?

Uh, with the testimony of the Russian girl Sonia, it should be correct.

But the question is, how did the aurora appear here?
