"How are you? Are you injured?" Han Lie looked at the soldiers in front of him.
Everyone looked a little disheveled, but not too embarrassed.
"No"
"That's good. Tell me about the situation."
"Yes, Boss. We are the only ones left here. We were resting in our own unit. As you can see, we are not from the same unit. We met on the road and traveled in a group. When we encountered those cannibals, we fought back, but some of them were our comrades, so we couldn't bring ourselves to kill them, so we suffered heavy losses."
They all lowered their heads as if in silence for their comrades who had lost their lives.
Even Han Lie lowered his head and remained silent for three minutes.
I learned the situation from them.
When the red rain fell, more than half of the people were indeed outside for night running training. Now they have turned into zombies after being caught in the rain.
Some of them were bitten to death by their own people, and some escaped when they discovered the problem.
Looking at his comrades who were deeply shocked, Han Lie himself was heartbroken. He had lost so many comrades. They were soldiers and they should have been fighting on the battlefield, but this was indeed a natural disaster and they had not escaped it.
They usually trained when it rained, which was nothing, but the only difference was that the rain that time was red rain, the rain that took their lives.
But I am truly powerless. I can fight against others, but I cannot fight against heaven, and I cannot defeat myself.
Han Lie felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
Listening to them escape from the zombies, and the powerlessness they felt when they lost their comrades, watching them being pinned and mauled by zombies is unforgettable. You were so close, your hands were so close, yet you still lost them. Hearing your comrade cry out in pain, "Save me!" and then watching him get bit by a zombie is a despairing experience.
Dying is not painful, what is painful is watching them die and being unable to do anything.
Especially his comrades, in order to allow others to survive, blocked the door alone and fell into the mouth of the zombies, just to buy them time to escape.
He also watched helplessly as his comrades-in-arms' limbs twitched after being bitten, their bodies stiffened, and they became unable to recognize anyone and continued to bite.
The men who once vowed to shed blood but not tears now shed precious tears.
Not for family, not for love, but for the comradeship that is closer than family and love.
Then it goes on to talk about how they took up arms to fight the zombies, and when the zombies surrounded them, they picked up guns and weapons to defend themselves.
But while they were fighting and fleeing, in this place, they used up their last bullets.
Nearly a thousand people hid in this gun room, preparing to spend this dangerous night, but they didn't expect to run into Han Lie.
"Well, you've worked hard," Han Lie said in a deep voice, comforting was all he could do.
"Now I need to know if you have any awakened superpowers? That is, fire, water, wood, etc. will appear in your hands."
"Boss, there are a few of us who are like this, but I don't know if that's a supernatural power.
Because they also had a fever at that time, I couldn't be sure.
Those who were caught in the rain also developed fever.”
"They are not in the same place as me. We have separated them."
"Where are they now? Are they safe?" Han Lie frowned, seeming dissatisfied with the answer.
Because of the fever, no one can be sure whether it is a mutation.
Han Lie was thinking that if he hadn't met Shangguan Wan in the beginning, and if he had suddenly awakened his superpowers, he might have regarded himself as a monster.
"Eagle King, they're in the room next to ours. We noticed they had a low-grade fever, so we put them in the same room. This happened just two days ago. During these two days, we noticed their hands would occasionally catch fire, either burning one person's hair or another's clothes. Water also appeared for no apparent reason. There was also a vine-like plant."
"Yes, this is the superpower I told you about. It's an awakening.
After the zombies mutate, some of them will awaken special abilities.
I don’t blame you for not understanding me. Even I didn’t understand the situation at that time.
If I hadn't met your sister-in-law, I might have locked myself away and felt like a monster." Han Lie turned and looked at Shangguan Wan.
I couldn't help but feel relieved and happy.
He felt that God had treated him very well by giving him such a special little person.
"You can come out now. Gather at the door after you come out. We have already dealt with all the zombies outside." Han Lie pulled Shangguan Wan's arm and went to the next room.
"Come out, whoever's inside." Han Lie extended his bony hand and knocked on the door. He then directed his command to the deep voice in the room.
Then he turned around and walked out the door, standing on the flat ground at the entrance of the rest building.
Seeing the troops, once neat, clean, and tidy, now defiled by the disgusting zombies, was like an insult to their faith.
