Chapter 056 Settlements

How can there be people here?

Big-nosed Jack: They're a little sluggish.

It's just that they reacted quickly.

"Are you the other humans who got caught?!" They cried out in surprise.

Indeed, this is the only explanation.

As one of the captured humans, they did not take half a step out of their place of residence for fifteen days, not because they did not want to step out, but on the periphery of their living area, the fungus carpet was dark.

In the absence of lighting, no pointing equipment, and no water source, there is only one result of just going out, that is, being completely swallowed up by the darkness and getting lost in the dark tunnel.

This is an enemy country, and there is no rescue.

Their chances of walking from land are infinitely close to zero, so they can only take the water.

Others must have done the same.

No, or rather, the waterway is the only way out

They didn't know if the captives from the other settlements really lived near this big river, but now they couldn't help but cry when they saw this girl.

Their eyes turned red all at once, and they looked at the female soldier with brown hair and ponytail, and they choked up a little, great, they weren't the only ones who survived!

They were on the island of intelligence, and they didn't know anything about what was going on in the world.

They didn't know that the humans outside had already attacked once.

They did not know that such a wide canal was to mobilize troops to dredge the equator.

They did not know that there were two or three settlements twenty kilometres away from them.

They had made the most pessimistic conjecture that only 500 of the more than 100,000 people survived.

But after counting the number of people, such a whole number of zeros gave them hope.

They may be just one of the countless Terrans captured by the Zerg.

Now that they saw the real person, they couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Wait, you say that, is it ......" There are no fools here, the brown-haired female soldier is very young, but she is only about twenty years old, but since she is not a front-line combatant, then at least she is a logistics staff, in interstellar wars, logistics personnel need brains.

She guessed where they came from almost instantly.

After all, the people who are still by the river at this point in time are indeed too weird.

"We're from other gathering points, Zerg captives." Big-nosed Jack cleanly asserts their identity.

"No matter where you're from, it's great to see you." The brown-haired female soldier laughed brightly.

Her smile was as bright as the sun, as if it had dissipated the gloom in the hearts of others.

"By the way, there are quite a few of us!" She cried out as if she remembered something, and she turned her head and screamed loudly, "Everyone! Get up! Look who's coming! ”

Her screams were sharp and penetrating, making her voice heard by everyone almost instantly.

Jack they didn't stop her screaming, obviously comparing their hearts to hearts, if they could actually meet the humans in the other camps, they would be even more exaggerated than she was now.

They are relieved that they have become the hope and expectation of others.

The screams of the brown-haired ponytail girl made everyone else blow it up.

Some people thought they had been attacked by bugs and hurriedly got up.

When they saw the ten alien humans and listened to the excited ponytailed female soldier's explanation, everyone became excited.

"Line up, count." The man at the head didn't directly believe Jack's words, but asked the others to start lining up to count.

To tell the truth, five hundred people, some people have never seen so many people in their lives, in the war, everyone's relationship network is also very narrow, middle-level officers know and remember 100 people is already remarkable, as for ordinary junior officers may only know their own people, their own superiors, plus a few friends of the same level, the total is only twenty or thirty people.

As for the officers at the higher level, if they can know their colleagues and subordinates, it is almost the same to have fifty people.

As for the five hundred now.

If they were not all from the military system, if they all had their own ranks, then it would be more difficult to organize them than it would be to drive 500 chickens.

Chickens are more blindly obedient, while humans have their own ideas, which is called a complicated one.

After arranging the queue and counting the number of people, they found that there were no missing people, and they really believed that people from other settlements would come here.

Many people cried at that time.

Obviously, they are as pessimistic as Jack, thinking that out of more than 100,000 people, only 500 of them are left, and more than 500 of them are pigs raised by insects, and they will never be able to escape in this life.

But now, the extra 500 people will bring their collective number to 1,000, and the hope of surviving or escaping is greatly increased.

Especially when they heard that they were coming ten kilometers upstream, it was even more exciting.

The fog of intelligence is gradually being dispelled, and everyone's hearts are warmed.

This is human, the social animal, the terrifying Homo erectus.

Give them a little hope, and they will never give up.

A strange smile appeared on King Worm's face, it was clear that these human manifestations were under its control, and in the entire underground, among the processors established by more than fifty female worms, there were not many things that could escape its control.

"Are you going to kill them?" Anna knew that the king worm was watching the fleeing humans, and she asked softly.

"Not necessarily." Wang Worm shook his head and said lightly: "The greater the hope, the greater the despair, let them continue to travel like this."

With the words of the king worm, Jack and them were unimpeded in the entire underground world.

Gradually, they stopped seeking to escape from this place, but found the tribes that were close to the river, and then slowly connected the human race.

The escape of only ten of them would be of no avail to the overall situation, but if they were to bring the hope of survival to the other soldiers as messengers, their role would become infinite.

They drifted down the river, all the way, and then gradually forgot their original purpose.

This also has to do with the fact that the river has never exited, and so far, Jack and the others have not been able to find when the river flows out of the cave......

And with Jack's movements in the past half month.

The Zerg also slowly gathered.
