Chapter 445: Apathy and Despair

Ye Qingmian and Su Mancheng have already gathered with Hua Zhi and She Xuan. Ye Qingmian sometimes feels that although Su Mancheng's best choice is not high, it is really easy to use, and the ability of this kind of panacea does not show particularly outstanding application in a certain aspect, but it is very versatile, and it can be used anywhere.

It's been four days since the virus was first activated, and the countdown to the end of civilization isn't much, if not measured in minutes. Ye Qingmian and Su Mancheng had witnessed countless disasters in the circular world, but when the virus first pointed to the real world, the terrifying process that was different from the simulation still made Ran's heart palpitate.

What was somewhat unexpected, both Hua Zhi and She Xuan maintained extreme calm, and the despair and death in all directions did not bring much fluctuation to them.

"His pain, I ask. If this is the age before the birth of wisdom, this kind of end is probably what everyone dreams of. Kaori commented.

"After all, it's just a dream, whether it's a nightmare or a sweet dream, it's all false, and when one ends, there will be the next one, which really makes people can't sympathize. She Xuan said.

After knowing the thoughts of the two, Su Mancheng felt a little emotional, feeling that fate was really a magical thing, it would always gather people with the same smell together to be embarrassed, otherwise how could there be so many extremists in this small circle around Ye Qingmian. But if you think about it, in the eyes of others, you should also be a cold-blooded and ruthless madman.

"But our allies, probably quite a few of them, are in need of psychological counseling after this visit. Hanori said that although they can look at the end of a civilization very calmly, it does not mean that everyone can.

Ordinary candidates do not know the truth of the dream world, and do not know the existence of the real place, in their eyes, life is real life, and in the face of endless death, it may be difficult to stay out of it.

She Xuan agreed with Hua Weaving's opinion, but she felt that the greater the impact of those allies on this visit, the more that fear would restrain them from resisting the orders of the First War Zone, at least in the short term, Ye Qingmian's voice would turn into a holy decree that followed the law.

"The candidates in the first war zone should be okay, after all, since the primary, they have eliminated death, and they have also experienced two reincarnation game crashes, crisis, death, and turmoil have always been with us, I believe that their hearts are strong enough. She Xuan said.

The four of them walked all the way down the street, the shops around seemed to be abandoned, all kinds of vehicles were piled up in a mess, and all the pharmacies were swept away.

After an initial fullness, the healing center soon became a fertile ground for the flowers of death to bloom in a concentrated manner, like a beautiful firework that attracts moths.

Initially, the speed of evolution and outbreak intensity of this batch of weaponized viruses was very high, and the estimated time of destruction of civilization was only 7 days, which made it impossible for any mechanism to respond adequately, and it was impossible for any resistance force to slow its spread.

Ye Qingmian thought that because of the initial outbreak of the virus, there would be countless social problems, such as the competition for medical resources, such as protests against military blockades, such as the cry for the truth, such as the man-made destruction of public facilities in the turmoil, such as the soaring crime.

But what he didn't expect was that, apart from the messy streets, everything in his city was very well preserved, with hundreds of media outlets, no troops, and no crowds of demonstrators. In the final analysis, it was the virus that swept through too quickly in the first place, and it severely damaged the social system that had been built for so long before people could realize the reality they were going to face.

It's dark. The lights in the city were lit, but there was no sound of human activity around, Ye Qingmian knew that there should still be people alive in the city, but now it was almost a dead city.

"The building complex in front of it is said to be the temple of this world, a bit like a church and Taoist temple on earth, but there is only one in each city. Ye Qingmian also did some homework before he came, and now he introduced it to Hua Zhi and She Xuan, "There are many empty rooms inside, which are specially used for meditation. ”

Several people walked up the steps of the temple, pushed open the classical door, and entered the main hall, and found that the hall was actually full of people.

What surprised Ye Qingmian was that these people did not nervously resist themselves, an outsider who might carry the virus, and almost all of them could not see the traces of the initial infection of the virus.

When Ye Qingmian entered the hall of the temple, almost everyone began to look at him, some with fear on their faces, some with tears in the corners of their eyes, some with numbness, and some whispering something.

"What's the matter with these people, why are they all looking at me?" Ye Qingmian felt a little creepy, it was really too unreasonable for this group of people.

"These people... All candidates, our allies. She Xuan whispered, and then pointed to the gene antidote syringes in the hands of several of them. The genetic antidote is limited by the fact that the oath cannot be leaked out now, and those who can possess it can only be allies in the first war zone.

Ye Qingmian frowned, walked along a path in the middle of the crowd all the way to the end of the main hall, and then turned to look at everyone, "What are you running away from?"

When Ye Qingmian's voice sounded, Kaori noticed that many people subconsciously trembled.

"How did you get together?" Ye Qingmian spoke again, but still no one answered.

She Xuan approached Ye Qingmian a little and explained in a low voice, "Candidates assigned to the same death penalty world can be exchanged for a contact channel with a badge, and the information between them is exchanged, and you haven't been at home recently, so I don't know this kind of detail." ”

"Oh. Ye Qingmian nodded, looked at She Xuan, and then at Su Mancheng, and finally locked his eyes on the more kind-faced Hua Weaving, "You can ask me what is going on." ”

Kaori nodded, walking towards the group of candidates.

"Let's take a tour of this temple, the building is quite distinctive. Feeling that his presence would make these candidates more stressful, Ye Qingmian decided to leave their sight for a while, called She Xuan and Su Mancheng, temporarily left the hall, and began to visit the inside of the temple.

After a two-hour visit, Ye Qingmian learned the name of this temple, Huustemin Palace, which is an ancient building that has been preserved for 2,000 years.

The exterior has been renovated again and again, using modern building materials while retaining the original architectural style, while the interior is not open to visitors, all wooden structures, and you can even smell the ancient wood.

Walking through the winding corridor, Ye Qingmian heard a melodious ballad, coming from the top of an attic in front of him. A loud and graceful female voice pierced through the quiet night, and the song hovered over the Huustamin Palace.

Just as he was about to go up to find out, he found that the owner of the song jumped down from the roof of the building and fell in front of Ye Qingmian.

He instinctively stopped it, but he didn't stop it, and at the moment when the immaterial life bound the air and dragged the person, Ye Qingmian gave up his plan to rescue.

Because you save people, you can't save your heart. Ye Qingmian could feel that the other party had no courage to continue to live, and her faith and will had collapsed.

Ye Qingmian sighed, heard the footsteps behind him, and looked back, Hua Weaving was walking slowly.

Seeing the figure that fell to the ground, Hanori also sighed, and then said, "Those candidates in the main hall can't bear the pressure, but they can't go back due to your orders, so they hide here and want to wait until this civilization ends." ”

"It doesn't matter. Ye Qingmian didn't care about this kind of thing, "Different civilizations and cultures, different beliefs and lives, but at this time, they can gather together quietly and feel the same fear, isn't this exactly what I want to see?"

Hanori continued, "There are also some people who are involved in the rescue activities in the indigenous world. I heard that some people are paying out of their own pockets to exchange genetic antidotes and share them with infected people. ”

"With the current binding of the oath, the genetic antidote cannot be exchanged by anyone outside of allies. Even if the infected become a dream disturber, they will not be able to heal themselves by exchanging their own genetic antidote, and only a few of our well-meaning allies will be a drop in the bucket. ”

"Don't we need to do something?" Kaori asked.

"It's best to do nothing now. Ye Qingmian raised his head and looked at the night sky, only feeling that tonight's darkness was very special, "When I was a child, I often heard people say that everyone corresponds to a star in the sky, and when a person dies, the star will fall. Looking at it now, it seems that this is indeed the case. ”

Su Mancheng also raised his head and saw a grand meteor shower, which turned from sparse to sudden in a very short period of time, densely strikingly across the sky.

"Is this a coincidence?" Su Mancheng was a little unsure, but there was nothing else possible.

It's a coincidence, but it's also appropriate, like the tears of this civilization. Ye Qingmian stretched out his hand to the sky, as if he wanted to touch the starlight, "One day in the future, will anyone shed tears for my fall." ”

"Bah, baba, crow's mouth!" Hearing Ye Qingmian's words, Hua Weaving angrily twisted Ye Qingmian's waist and glared at him fiercely.

"Yes. Su Mancheng nodded solemnly, "There will be many people crying with joy." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Mancheng swept the extremely cold eyes of Hua Zhi and She Xuan, and the air around them seemed to be much lower, "I... Just kidding, haha... Ha... Ha. By the way, I have a preliminary plan for how to share the results of the materialization of the Bible with my allies to a limited extent. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Su Mancheng hurriedly changed the topic, and at the same time complained in his heart that these two women were too uncompromising to joke, and they had no sense of humor at all.

"Eh, do you already have an idea? Ye Qingmian pointed to the ancient attic road in front of him, "Let's go up and take a walk, talk as you go." ”
