Chapter 84 I Can't Hold On Anymore
The thing that is most abundant in the end times is death.
But even if it was death... I had never seen death on such a large scale.
One after another, endless.
More than ten hours have passed since the zombie tide arrived. From sunset to sunrise, the sky is bright again.
The soldiers on the wall had bloodshot eyes, but no one dared to relax.
Ordinary zombies are okay, the most troublesome are those giant zombies. Once they get close, there will definitely be casualties!
And there were large numbers of casualties!
Two hours ago, a giant zombie broke through the artillery fire and not only approached the wall but also punched the wall!
Cracks appeared on the wall instantly!
It can't withstand a second punch!
The artillery fire could not kill the giant zombie immediately. When the giant zombie was about to throw a second punch, Jiang Nianwan took action.
Her existence is like guerrilla patching, rushing to wherever there is a problem.
Jiang Nianwan was very fast. Before anyone could see clearly, the giant zombie began to collapse from the fist position, and finally turned into a pool of flesh and blood and fell to the ground.
Everyone around was stunned.
"What are you standing there for? Keep going!" the captain in charge roared, "What are you looking at?"
The soldiers finally came to their senses, but at the same time they felt hopeful and became more energetic.
Because of the constant casualties, the medical soldiers were constantly bandaging the wounded. Some of those who had only minor injuries did not bother to retreat behind the scenes and continued to fight with their injuries.
Then the medic followed suit.
Everyone is racing against time.
"Mother……"
Standing on a high ground at the rear of the base, Mi Bao was watching closely, looking nervously at Jiang Nianwan who was wandering around not far away.
She only slept for five hours last night and then couldn't fall asleep again.
If Mibao hadn't been strongly persuaded to rest, he wouldn't have been able to sleep for even those five hours.
Even so, he kept dreaming, sometimes dreaming of zombies, sometimes dreaming of dead people, and sometimes dreaming of Jiang Nianwan's face...
Bizarre and fantastic.
This was bound to be an uneasy night.
But not just for one night.
"Mibao, calm down." Chaoyang, who was standing next to her, saw this and held Mibao's hand, gently patting her back. "I believe that Auntie will be fine."
Mibao covered his chest, feeling very uneasy.
Time passed by bit by bit. The base commander who was overlooking the overall situation in the rear looked at the real-time situation transmitted from various screens, and his face was not very good.
Now, about eighteen hours have passed since the expected time, but the base is almost unable to hold on.
But only half the time has passed.
It was even because of Jiang Nianwan's help. If it weren't for Jiang Nianwan, the base would probably have been breached by now!
"How long will it take for the plane to arrive?" Huang Yingchun asked the assistant next to him.
The assistant, who was constantly monitoring the aircraft's movements, immediately responded, "Our plane has just departed from the southern base; the planes from the other three bases will arrive in about thirty-eight minutes."
Huang Yingchun closed her eyes.
He opened his eyes a few seconds later, his determination in his eyes: "It's too late to take everyone away. Calculate how many people the four arriving planes can carry in total, and then let the remaining people draw lots from them.
Only those who are selected in the lottery can board the plane."
This is the only fair way right now.
Life and death are determined by fate... Base, we did our best.
The assistant was silent for a second and then nodded immediately: "Yes, I will ask someone to arrange the lottery on the phone immediately."
Ten minutes later, a lottery program popped up on the phones of everyone at the Oasis Base, introducing the current situation of the base.
The lottery is conducted on a real-name basis, and boarding the plane is also on a real-name basis. There is no possibility of snatching someone else's spot.
For a moment, the base was filled with the sounds of crying and collapse.
On the other side, someone came to pick up Mibao and Chaoyang.
"Come with me, the plane is about to arrive, I will take you on the plane." said the man.
Mi Bao was stunned for a moment: "Then what about me...what about my aunt?"
Chaoyang also frowned slightly.
"...Sorry, this plane can only carry humans." The man in camouflage uniform said with a serious face, "Besides, Ms. Jiang is a mutant, barely the same as zombies, so it shouldn't be a problem if she stays."
As he said that, he was going to pull up the people from Mibao and Chaoyang and take them on the plane.
Mibao took a step back and avoided the other person's hand.
She shook her head: "No...I won't leave! I want to stay with my mother!"
Having said that, she rushed out directly!
Chaoyang also ran out.
The other party suddenly became anxious and wanted to catch the two children, but when he touched Mibao, he suddenly felt a pain on the back of his hand and subconsciously withdrew his hand.
When he looked up again, he saw a huge black cat breathing towards him, then closing the door with its tail.
"not good……"
The soldier suddenly became anxious and quickly took out the walkie-talkie to report the situation here, and at the same time quickly chased out.
After just a brief delay, Mibao, Chaoyang and the black cat were completely lost in the crowd.
But it's not hard to find them.
Everyone was running into the base, only they were running out.
Mibao knew that her power was very small and she couldn't help much, but she couldn't just abandon her mother like that!
Mom finally found her...
"Meebo, over there!"
Chaoyang held Mibao's hand tightly and pointed at the figure running quickly on the wall not far away.
Mibao's eyes lit up: "Mom!"
However, the distance was so far, and the surroundings were so noisy with only the sounds of crying and shouting, so Jiang Nianwan did not hear Mi Bao's cry.
But that’s okay…
Mibao smiled.
This time, it's her turn to run to her mother.
…
…
"The planes from the base are coming!"
Bai Qi looked at the two small planes flying not far away, and immediately smiled, then quickly stood on a high place and waved at them.
Ji Ruwen also walked silently to Bai Qi's side.
The bayonet in his hand is ready.
Because there were trees all around and it was difficult for the plane to stop, the plane circled overhead and lowered a ladder for them to climb up by themselves.
This is naturally not a problem for them.
Just when Baiqi was about to climb up first, Ji Ruwen grabbed the ladder first.
Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, but did not argue because of this. Instead, he laughed and let go of the ladder: "You go first, you go first. I know you are worried about your daughter."
Ji Ruwen didn't say anything, but climbed up silently.
When they climbed to the plane door and Baiqi was about to climb up, Ji Ruwen grabbed the plane door with one hand, slid out the bayonet hidden in his sleeve with the other hand, and then quickly cut the ladder!
Bai Qi had just stepped on it when he stumbled and fell to the ground because of Ji Ruwen's action!
