However, the ever-increasing work pressure and survival pressure have long left people with no time to pay attention to their own mental state. They only see a psychologist when the situation is at its most serious.
The cancer lurking in the human spiritual world had never been eradicated until this natural disaster, when it completely erupted.
Every day, there are psychologists trying their best to help people get out of their repressed emotions.
The team leaders also tried hard to care for those people, but the results were often not very good.
Everyone knows that the fundamental solution is to conquer the zombie virus.
But at this time, no one dared to say this.
Xie Yan looked at the expectant eyes of these people, and he finally understood why Captain Yang asked them to speak for themselves.
"Everyone, the virus has broken out. You only have two choices. Life or death."
Xie Yan paused for a while, giving his subordinates time to think.
"Is there anyone here who has never seen a dead person? Please raise your hand." After Xie Yan said this, no one in the entire meeting room raised their hand.
"So, you've all experienced death. What's so scary about death to you?"
"With the lives and hopes of your companions, every day is a new beginning for you."
"We're facing a problem for our entire species now. It's the same problem faced by every species that has lived on Earth for hundreds of millions of years. Over millions of years, some species, unable to adapt to the changes of nature, gradually became extinct. Others, through mutations, found their way back and emerged from their plight. Species that we call a part of the food chain have faced this problem countless times, and now, it's the same problem we face. I believe that with our human wisdom, we will inevitably break through. Life or death is entirely in your hands."
The people in the audience listened to Xie Yan's words quietly. They had originally thought that they were humble and insignificant, but the hermit's words restored their confidence.
Yes, those ants, insects, and even plants have faced such problems, but some of them have survived, so why can't they survive?
Want to live
Want to survive
The seeds of hope slowly took root in my heart and began to sprout.
More and more people saw the expectation in their companions' eyes.
Encourage, encourage each other, support each other, and live together.
"We arrived a few days later than you did. We encountered many zombies along the way, but many people were willing to sacrifice their own lives to keep their families and companions alive. They worked harder than ever before. Therefore, God has not been unfair to us."
He displayed the crystals in his hand, and each colorful crystal was magnified through the screen.
"These are the crystals we found in the heads of zombies on the road. Some of our companions gained superpowers after eating them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the audience was still quiet due to the excitement and tears just now. After hearing these words, there was a sudden silent pause of three seconds.
superpowers
What superpowers?
Did I hear it wrong?
Countless people were in turmoil, and the young people were the first to react.
Is it really a superpower?
They looked at Xie Yan excitedly, and their fanatical expressions almost melted the person in front of them.
"This... this... and this..." Several photos of zombies gradually appeared on the projection screen. After being enlarged, they immediately made some people excited.
But Xie Yan continued his statement calmly, regardless of how excited the crowd was. "These zombies are most likely to contain crystals. If you hunt them, you can try to find them in their bodies. Of course, some of us have already developed superpowers by eating the crystals of these zombies."
Having said that, Xie Yan asked Han Xiaoxiao to stand up. A huge fireball as tall as a person suddenly appeared and then went out immediately.
"But some people haven't seen any effects after taking it. As for whether it will cause other side effects and turn them into zombies, further investigation is needed. Everything is unknown. However, we need fifty people to try this experiment. Anyone interested can come to the front desk and sign up within fifteen minutes from now."
"Is there any benefit in that?" someone suddenly asked.
"No. If you want to try it, come on. If you don't want to, forget it."
"How do we know if you are lying?" After hearing Xie Yan's words, someone immediately shouted in dissatisfaction.
When Han Xiaoxiao heard the people in the audience say this, he wanted to go over and beat up that idiot. These crystals were something they had worked so hard to find from zombies, and they had nearly lost their lives several times along the way. If it weren't for Sister Xue Ning's insistence on giving everyone a fair chance, he wouldn't have been willing to give away these things he had risked his life for.
"You can treat me as a liar." Xie Yan's words stunned the people below, and they didn't know what to say.
"You have fifteen minutes left, and you still have fourteen to think about it yourself. Your life is your own, not given to you by me."
After Xie Yan finished speaking, he walked down the slope.
He returned to his car, found a glass of water and drank it slowly.
The other few people looked at the hesitant people in front of them, shook their heads and followed them back to the convoy.
Finally, more than forty young soldiers and nine ordinary people stood up. Each of them held a crystal, wrote a will, and swallowed it with water.
This was just a small choice in life, but it brought them huge changes.
