Chapter 123: Dead but Not Stiff

Twenty-three minutes after the impact.

The shock waves, the flames, and the waves of dust have all dissipated. The mushroom cloud gradually expanded and grew larger, and the heavy light of the fire was gone.

It looked like a tombstone.

The gray-faced Bai Xiaodang looked at the city from afar and thought in his heart. She is surrounded by the terrified Hawkeye and other capable people who can escape with their lives, as well as many more refugees.

There are so many people, so many that there is no end in sight. But until this time, they have not recovered from the scene just now—it is difficult for anyone to accept the fact that their homeland has been completely destroyed. To know the Dao, maybe more than half an hour ago, they were still ordinary people who knew nothing, those who didn't know the ability of the Dao, didn't know the Dao species, and didn't know the huge shadow that shrouded the world over the Dao.

But now everything is happening right in front of you. After a long silence, suppressed cries and shouts rang out. The sound was like an infectious disease, and it only took a few seconds for more people to resonate and rush to the city like a demon.

Many people were affected by the bombardment just now, but many more survived.

In addition to the cries, there is another voice circulating among the refugees -

Divine punishment.

Very few people are not panicked like ordinary refugees. Although they were all disgraced and embarrassed, there was a distinctive, mysterious and proud look on their faces. They gathered in one place and whispered, and then passed a message through the crowd to the surroundings—

We are the elect!

These people -- about a few thousand people who make up less than one percent of the refugee population, try to tell other people something like this --

Just now they saw the angel. A seraph covered in hard scale armor, shrouded in clouds of fire, and with wings of light and fire behind it.

When the demons in the sky descend. The Seraph also descended. The Holy Spirit had delivered them at a crossroads, received their worship and prayer, and showed them the way.

"Depart from this place, and the Day of Judgment will come. I am commanded to save you, and those who are saved will be the Lord's chosen people. They swore by it.

This statement resonated with a lot of people. Although those people may not have really seen Li Zhen in the form of a giant, the figure above the sky has left a deep imprint on everyone's hearts. It was indeed a winged form, far more intimate and mysterious than that peculiar species. The voice of doubt swept into an insignificant wave, which quickly disappeared into the surging public opinion and boiling emotions.

When the end comes, people instinctively look for faith and sustenance—explanations that soothe their terrified hearts.

When Bai Xiaodang noticed this......

The refugees have "picked themselves up" again.

Because another statement, with the active cooperation of people, swept through the crowd like a hurricane -

Where the Holy Spirit falls, great blessings await all.

Leaving aside the unreligious affiliation, let's just talk about the cultural influences of the people of this country – many of whom are descendants of immigrants from China, whose customs are very similar to those of those who live in that far, vast country.

Just as the Chinese believe that strength can be obtained from tiger bones, more and more people believe it. If you can touch the remains of the Holy Spirit. They will be more completely saved, and even go to the kingdom of God in eternal peace and happiness.

So large groups of people rushed to the city with fear and the desire to be "saved".

Bai Xiaodang realized that something was wrong.

Those people are crazy! Suffering such a violent impact, the remaining high-rise buildings in the city must have crumbled. It's a death trap. So many people poured over - did they really want to die?!

So what did that person do so much for!

For the first time. She even shouted for the inconsequential others: "Don't go! Don't go! Are you all crazy?! It's going to die!! ”

But her voice was small and weak. She was drowned out by more frenzied shouts, and some even angrily shoved her, told her to silence, and cursed that she would "never find her friends and relatives who were sheltered by the Holy Spirit in the city."

Hawkeye boldly covered her mouth. whispered in her ear, "Don't make a sound, something isn't right." ”

Bai Xiaodang angrily pushed him away: "Of course I know that something is wrong, they will die!" ”

"Nope." Hawkeye tugged at her, dragged her to a pile of house ruins, and looked around again, "Someone's playing tricks." ”

He said in a firm tone: "If you guess correctly, you are the one who is the gate of truth." They are encouraging these refugees to move to the city. There will be no small number of people, so don't attract their attention. ”

The impulsive emotions faded in an instant, and Bai Xiaodang became the same Bai Xiaodang again. She immediately realized that the frenzied messages in the crowd were indeed too directive. Those who knelt down here and continued to worship the "Seraphs" or began to pray in a panic and longed for the Lord's salvation were acceptable. However, the message told them to flock to the city.

She dared to guarantee that Li Zhen would not say anything like "the saved are voters", and she could guarantee that there would be no happiness in the urban area, but a crisis worse than death!

Dissimilation!!

Ordinary people in Mexico who are polluted by "Lucifer" have all turned into terrible things, and these people ......

Her eyes widened suddenly: "Can you find them!?" ”

Eagle Eye looked at Bai Xiaodang strangely and frowned: "Miss Bai, what's the matter with you?" Didn't you think of it? What if you kill them? That argument has taken root in people's minds! Once so many people are agitated, no one can stop them! ”

Bai Xiaodang was slightly stunned and looked around. Everyone's faces were eager and excited, rushing to the city, and even if some people had a worried face, they were quickly embraced forward by more people.

She realized that the situation at hand could not be measured by common sense.

If it was a nuclear bomb that destroyed the city – no matter how much the people at the Gate of Truth stirred it up, no one would take it seriously. Ideas like "Seraph", "Holy Spirit", "Kingdom of God" and so on are difficult to relate to reality.

However...... They really saw the "Holy Spirit"!

Once the legendary existence really appears in front of you, what else can't be believed?!

She sat down in a slump of shape.

For the first time, I felt a lot of hatred for the mysterious organization of the Gate of Truth.

People weren't moving fast, but they looked overwhelming. When Bai Xiaodang stood up weakly and looked back at the last glance before trying to get away from this area......

Her pupils widened suddenly.

There's something!

Something is moving in the city center!!

The mushroom clouds in the urban area have not completely dispersed, and the whole area is gray. But just when she looked at it, she realized—

A faint red glow lit up. She immediately grabbed the telescope of the capable person next to her and brought it to her eyes.

Among the ruins of the high-rise buildings, a cone-shaped tip was revealed.

There seemed to be a lot of nicks at the tip, and dots of something like a halo of fireflies drifted out, like blood flowing out of a wound. But the thing was slowly rising, and countless small, scattered, dancing tentacles peged out of the gap.

Her whole body seemed to be hit by a bullet, and she felt a bang in her head.

That kind of species didn't die!!

A hoarse, shrill voice followed. At first it was faint, then it became high-pitched, like a roar of anger after a serious injury, which instantly spread throughout the city, and made everyone's ears tingle.

Everyone saw this terrible sight, and the surging crowd suddenly stagnated, and then burst out with a mountain of panicked cries, and turned around and ran backwards. But tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of refugees have spread all over the land, and even a well-trained army cannot retreat safely in such a situation, let alone ordinary people who are already in high spirits and suffer another mental blow in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, thousands of people were trampled to death, and the speed at which people fled backwards became even slower.

Next, Bai Xiaodang's worst fears happened.

The refugees running in the back row were suddenly stunned and stopped. Immediately after that, some of the people in front of them also slowed down and shook their heads slightly, as if they suddenly remembered something.

The invisible force slowly caught up with the fleeing crowd, and more and more people froze in place, turning their heads around to search.

Hunger pangs......

Their faces grew rosy and hideous, and a low roar emanated from their throats. As if a delicious cake that could be seen but not touched tempted these people, they slowly opened their mouths, stretched their necks, and leaned forward.

Then, with a bang!

The clothes on the body were suddenly torn apart by the swelling muscles, and the open blood vessels squirmed slightly like a thin black snake, providing abundant nutrients at the cost of overdrawing their vitality, causing their whole bodies to make a "rattle" sound, and in an instant, they jumped up more than ten centimeters high, turning into one terrible monster after another with fangs and scales!

Almost as soon as the transformation was complete, the monsters let out a low, bloodthirsty roar and swooped down on the crowd.

The killing ensued. In the face of sharp teeth, sharp claws, and inhuman speed and strength, the panicked refugees were small and helpless, and the blood of the canopy bloomed in the crowd, and the flesh and stumps rose to the sky!

The range of influence of the species is gradually expanding—not at a rapid pace, but no one is spared wherever it goes.

Bai Xiaodang gasped, her heart was filled with fear, shock, anger, and sorrow that made her stunned for a while, if it weren't for Hawkeye pulling her up, it seemed that she would have stood in front of the ruins, waiting until the terrifying force rushed in front of her, and then was torn apart by those even more terrifying mutants.
