As expected, there was a rumbling sound coming from deep in the town, followed by flashes of lightning and the fierce barking of dogs, which was very creepy in the quiet night.
A group of survivors camped in the distance sighed as they watched the lightning streaks across the sky. "What kind of boss is this? His lightning powers are so strong that he even cracked the sky bright."
The person sitting next to him, warming himself by the fire, "is at least level five or six."
Their team leader Xiao Yi looked in the direction of the lightning without saying a word.
With such a high level of supernatural power, I don’t know whether he is a good person or a bad person.
If they were bad guys, who knows how many humans would die at their hands.
"Captain Li and his men have been out searching for survivors for several months. They should be back soon. Maybe they can reunite with us and go back together." said one of the men sitting around the fire.
They all wore camouflage uniforms with the logo of the Firelight Base on their chests.
Behind them were some sick survivors, about two or three hundred people.
They were lying on their sides, like corpses.
Because this team is not as lucky as Captain Li's team. Not only are the soldiers ordinary people, they also don't have space ability users like Song Chen who can buy food on the road.
They all relied on a pack of compressed biscuits and a bottle of water, struggling to find survivors outside, and had to fight zombies on an empty stomach.
“Gurgle…”
A soldier who was only 19 years old had a rumbling stomach.
He touched his belly and licked his lips, "I miss the instant noodles before the apocalypse! I wouldn't have given them a second glance before, but now I can't stop thinking about them."
Another soldier touched his stomach and said, "I must be starving. I just smelled a barbecue not far away."
"We're still grilling. Where are we going to find meat now?"
"He must have been so hungry that he fainted and was hallucinating."
…
The other soldiers felt their stomachs were full of hunger and they sat on the grass, looking at the sky with dull eyes.
The 19-year-old soldier looked at the moon and murmured, "Captain, will we be able to live to see the end of this apocalypse?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone else lowered their heads and fell silent.
They had just joined the army and hadn't learned anything yet when the end of the world came.
Now, not only do I have to look for survivors outside every day, but I also have to fight those terrible zombies. I am already physically and mentally exhausted.
Xiao Yi told the 19-year-old soldier with certainty, "We will survive until the end of the apocalypse."
"You are right, we must trust the country."
The 19-year-old soldier immediately laughed, and his eyes lit up.
The same goes for others. They all believe in the country and believe that it will be able to end this apocalypse.
But they didn't know that in the original text, their Firelight Base didn't make it to the light and was wiped out early on.
"I wish I had water-related abilities, at least I would have water to drink." The thirsty man said, licking his cracked lips.
If there is nothing to eat, some water would be nice!
Another person said regretfully, "There's so much water in that lake up there, enough for us to drink until we get back to base, but there are mutant crocodiles in it. Our weapons are useless against them, and we almost got eaten."
"Why can't we awaken our superpowers?" Someone stared at his hands in a daze.
Xiao Yi also stared at his hands.
They have more than 2,000 soldiers, but not a single one has awakened special powers.
On the contrary, ordinary people wake up from time to time.
"I heard that the base in the capital city is already researching a drug that can awaken people. I don't know if they have found it yet."
Another soldier said, "Even if they do develop it, it will only be used in bases close to the capital. Our city H is several months away from the capital, so we might not even be able to use it."
When everyone heard this, their mood became depressed again.
They do the most dangerous work without any protection.
The younger soldiers were already wiping away their tears. Not only was it hardship, but they also had nothing to eat.
"There are people over there, Xiaobai and Dahei. Hurry up and stop those zombies."
Song Chi's anxious voice suddenly came from the dim grove.
By the time Xiao Yi and the others reacted, they saw a large group of zombies running towards their camp desperately.
"Ahhhhhh zombies, there are zombies coming..."
The resting survivors scrambled to their feet, screaming, in a chaotic heap.
Xiao Yi and his companions, whose hands were weak from hunger, forced themselves to pick up their weapons from the ground, loaded their guns, and aimed at the first and second stage mutant zombies running towards them.
Xiao Yi's face looked very ugly. There were at least thirty or forty mutant zombies, and they were no match at all.
"Xiaobai, jump over to protect those people and burn those zombies to death." Song Chi shouted and gave orders.
"roar!"
Xiaobai let out a low roar that was deafening.
Xiao Yi and the others' ears were buzzing with pain and they almost couldn't stand.
They only felt a gust of wind passing by, and a huge figure jumped in front of them, blocking the zombies with its back to them, and stirring up a cloud of sand.
"roar……"
Xiaobai raised his head and roared like a tiger, opened his mouth and shot a fireball at the group of mutated zombies. The flames exploded, and the zombies were burned to pieces. The smell of burnt decay spread.
"Ugh, it stinks."
Song Chi quickly covered his nose, and did not forget to cover Song Chen's nose as well.
The survivors behind Xiao Yi felt their legs go weak, their pupils widened, and they fell to the ground.
With its back to them was a mutant white tiger as tall as a large truck, looking extremely terrifying.
Xiao Yi and the soldiers were also very frightened.
But they clearly heard someone commanding the mutant tigers, so why didn't they see any human figures? Could it be an illusion?
Just when they were nervously and fearfully guarding against the huge white tiger, they finally saw two fair-skinned and cute boys on the back of the white tiger. Their skin was as white as snow in the moonlight, and they looked like elves who had descended to earth, which made them stunned.
