Chapter 947: Fraudulent Corpse!
East Seaport.
The Saviors evacuated from Tianchi have arrived at the temporary base of the Savior in the port for a short period of repairs, and although almost no one has been injured in the previous response to this disaster, the reality is that every girl's face is full of powerlessness and despair.
"What do you guys look like?! Don't forget, you are the saviors of this world! ”
As the head of the East Sea Port, and even the temporary acting before, and now has been urgently appointed as a fire brigade, Huo Hong has hardly closed her eyes since last night, in addition to dispatching the saviors to respond to the disaster, she also has to prepare the final emergency plan - when the disaster cannot be prevented, use the ship to temporarily transport the ordinary people evacuated from the front to the sea, in order to avoid the volcanic eruption that may sweep everything, and the ensuing earthquake and other concurrent disasters.
Although this is a drop in the bucket, this is already the maximum degree of autonomy that she can make within the scope of her authority as the head of a province, especially when she learned the shocking news not long ago through the White Queen's personal notification, and now even she herself has completely lost confidence in this action.
But even so, when faced with a group of saviors who had retreated from the front line and were dejected, she still had to raise her majesty, and as a senior and leader, she regained her will as a savior for them by shouting loudly.
"If even we, the saviors, give up saving the world, then ...... Those ordinary people, those family members who live with you, peers, classmates, colleagues who grew up together...... Where will they go?! ”
"But ......"
There was a savior who whispered, with a crying voice, and made an unwilling voice.
"We've tried to do it...... But it doesn't have any effect at all......"
"That means you haven't worked hard enough!"
The fiery red and cold eyes locked on the savior who said this sentence for the first time.
"Don't forget, the Sea Emperor is still in Tianchi, she is using her life to buy this last time for us, is it that during this time, we don't think about how to solve the problem, but waste time in self-pity of 'I can't do anything'?"
Perhaps because of the efforts of the Sea Emperor, or because the words of the fiery red did have their due effect, one after another, some saviors began to shake their spirits, recovered from the previous confusion and helplessness, and began to devote themselves to the work of assistance.
And when he saw that everyone was regaining confidence one after another, Huohong could finally turn around with relief and ...... From an angle that no one could see, a bitter smile was revealed.
"Can efforts alone stop this? Unfortunately, even I don't believe it myself. ”
Unlike the Sea Emperor who was willing to sacrifice himself to try to stop the volcanic eruption, since he learned the news from the Savior Management Office, Huo Hong had already guessed that perhaps this time, the so-called "end of the world", the operator behind it, was the Red Mentor who chose to betray the Savior Management Office on such a cusp.
So...... With the ability of that red mentor, will there be any opportunities and opportunities for people to take advantage of?
Judging from Huohong's experience working with that woman over the years, such a possibility is ...... Almost zero.
"Even if the odds are zero, we have to try to stop her."
Suddenly, the fiery red who heard this voice turned his face sideways, and what he saw was a companion with the same clean face, codenamed Bai Ze.
In fact, not only Bai Ze, but all the members of the entire Imperial Capital Savior Management Office had already rushed to Donghai Port through Jinmen before, saying that it was "reinforcements", in fact, according to Bai Ze himself and Huohong in private, this was actually a forced "evacuation".
"Don't forget, that's the Red Mentor."
Regarding Bai Ze's statement, the only reaction that Huohong could make was to tuck the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that he didn't know if he was ridiculing himself or the other party.
"Not long ago, everyone in your Imperial Capital Savior's Management Office failed to keep that woman, but you can tell me, how can we stop her now?"
"You have to make it clear - we are not trying to defeat her, but we are trying to stop her plans and stop the destruction of the world this time!"
"Yes, then, all-knowing and all-powerful Bai Ze, please tell me, this time, what should we do?"
“……”
After being silent for a long time, Bai Ze gave her calculation results in a very low voice.
"According to my ...... Presumably, by our strength...... No, it should be said that with the current power of the savior of the whole world, with the negative response we are now taking, it is completely impossible to prevent the outbreak of this world-wide catastrophe. ”
"So, where does the 'possibility' exist in your mouth?"
Faced with the fiery tough rhetorical question, Bai Ze shook his head, his voice bitter.
"Originally...... If that person is still around, there's a chance......"
“……”
When "that person" was mentioned, both Huohong and Bai Ze were silent.
I don't know when that person, the man codenamed "Protagonist", has quietly become their backbone, and even at such a critical moment, whether it is Huo Hong or Bai Ze, they are even willing to believe in their hearts that that man has the ability to lead them to solve all these problems.
No one knows exactly when and where this blind trust began, but it seems too late to realize it now.
"It's really watertight, Red Mentor."
Huohong sighed deeply.
"And, even if he were really there, maybe it would be a futile psychological comfort, after all...... According to what you said earlier, he himself...... It's just a puppet made by the Red Mentor, and even that ability and code name ......"
At this, she suddenly felt bored, so she sneered softly.
"It's useless to talk about that now, after all, he's dead."
"Really...... Is it dead? ”
Bai Ze stubbornly bit his lip.
"However, I always feel ...... He might come back and lead us to stop this......"
"Don't be stupid!"
Flaming Red suddenly grabbed her shoulder.
"You just said in your own mouth that he is dead! Even the corpses have been completely wiped out, and there is no hope of resurrection! And what's the use of him even if he lives? He's just an imposter! It's a doll fabricated by the Red Mentor! It is as meaningless as a placebo! ”
“…… If you really think so, you wouldn't be so emotional now. ”
Contrary to Huo Hong's current state of almost losing self-control, even though he clearly felt the burning pain in his shoulder, Bai Ze became more and more calm.
"And I really feel that way — unlike previous calculations, this time, it's just a gut feeling, it's like...... It's going to happen, and no matter who does something, there's nothing they can do to stop it. ”
“……”
Just as Huo Hong suddenly withdrew his hand in disbelief and retreated, his eyes fixed on Bai Ze's face, as if to prove Bai Ze's words, another joyful voice came along with the stumbling figure.
"Quick...... Fast...... Fast...... Come on! Hurry up...... Check it out! ”
"What the hell is going on?!"
He helped the Soul Breaker who almost fell to the ground, although it didn't look like something to be happy about at all, but her elated expression was completely different from before.
"Yes...... Be...... It's ......"
The Soul Breaker tried several times, and finally forcibly freed himself from the stuttering for a while.
"It's seniors! It's a communication from his predecessor! ”
