Chapter 538: Ember of Hope
"Ding..."
The elevator door was heard closing, and the last scene everyone saw was the zombie skull being shattered, and the corpse blocking the progress of the other companions, allowing them to escape.
The soldier who had fired the shot sat down on the ground in collapse, gasping for breath.
"That's good..."Ye Zixiao patted Mo Qian's shoulder, he didn't expect that in the end it was this guy who stabilized the army's heart, he just wanted to thank him, and suddenly focused his eyes on Mo Qian's hand, "Mo Qian, your hand..."
I saw that the skin of Mo Qian's entire palm was open, and even some of the flesh and blood were scorched, which was shocking.
The soldier's firearm just now had been fighting for a long time, and the barrel was almost red, Mo Qian actually stabilized the barrel with his bare hands and assisted his comrades to complete the shooting?
Mo Qian glanced at his bloody hand and said with a big grin: "It's okay!" If I can save you, this little injury is nothing. ”
"I'll take care of it for you." Yang Baa walked up, took out alcohol and bandages from the package he was carrying, helped Mo Qian disinfect, and finished dressing the wound.
The elevator rose very quickly, and after thirty seconds, with a feeling of overweight, the elevator slowed down and stopped.
The moment the elevator door opened, everyone was worried, for fear that they would see the ugly faces of zombies after opening the door, but no, the passage ahead was a spacious space and empty.
However, as soon as the joy of the crowd arose, cold water was quickly poured on them.
This elevator is a freight elevator, directly connecting the ground floor and the surface, and now transporting them to the freight yard, which is a spacious open-air area, separated by barbed wire, although there is not a single zombie inside, but outside the barbed wire is a tide of corpses, and there is no exit.
The zombies soon noticed the presence of living people nearby, and rushed to the freight yard, surrounding the place to the ground, judging by the speed at which the barbed wire was deformed, I am afraid that it will not be long before they will be engulfed by zombies.
The last ray of hope was gone, and the desperate situation was finally laid out in front of everyone, everyone bowing their heads and not saying a word.
"Looks like we're at the end of the road." Ye Zixiao patted Mo Qian's shoulder, glanced at Luo Wei who was unconscious on his back, and then at Yang Baa, and smiled briefly, "I really envy you stupid trio, enter the barracks together, die together, and always be together." ”
Ye Zixiao lit a cigarette and lit another one for Mo Qian, and when the spicy gas rolled through his lungs, he began to take a deep breath intoxicated, and said lightly: "Hey, I don't know if that kid in Xi Miao can't do it alone without me." ”
Mo Qian took the cigarette, he actually never smoked, first, he felt that tobacco affected the efficiency of his usual training, and second, he was born poor, tobacco was a luxury in these years, and he couldn't afford it as a private.
But at this last moment, Mo Qian still took a symbolic puff and sighed: "You say, will the country remember us?" ”
"Who knows..."Ye Zixiao lowered his eyes and stretched out his hand into his arms, "At least, we can't lose face at the last moment, this land belongs to human beings, how can we let the fierce beasts show off their might?" Everyone, the glorious bullets are here, right?! ”
The crowd took out the glorious bullet from the top of the clothing, a fuse that was extremely short, and pulled down the grenade that had exploded.
"Do you know why Lao Tzu joined the army? Lao Tzu used to be a native of Jingu! As soon as Ye Zixiao said this, everyone subconsciously clenched their fists.
Jingu...
In the first year of the Honkai Destruction, the cube was fully invaded, and in the defense of Jingu, the 27th Infantry Armored Mixed Brigade of the Republic fought to the last soldier, and all the people behind him were righteous.
For the sacrifice of the entire first year, such a tragedy is only an epiphany, but it is the countless such epiphanys that have preserved the most invaded country and made the flame of civilization live forever in the world.
"The republic lives forever!" These four words are not just simple slogans, but tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of casualties in exchange for iron and blood, when Ye Zixiao shouted and rushed towards the tide of corpses, everyone rushed up.
Mo Qian put the unconscious Luo Wei on the ground, clenched his glorious bullet, and left the last sentence: "Be a comrade-in-arms in the next life!" ”
Immediately, Mo Qian never looked back and rushed with Ye Zixiao.
The brave soldiers of the Red Army braved death and bravely pounced on the tide of corpses, ready to defend the last honor and dignity with their lives.
However, fate is sometimes full of banter.
This force has broken through the predicament several times, and every time hope is rekindled, it has fallen into deeper despair again and again.
But when the flame of hope is gone, and everyone firmly believes that they are at the end of the road, hope is revived.
The sound of the helicopter propeller breaking through the air was heard, and everyone stopped in a daze and looked up at the sky.
The searchlight tore through the night, swept through the boundless tide of corpses, and finally fell on the crowd.
Ye Zixiao squinted, and through the afterglow of the lamp, he snorted and said coldly, "The Star-Spangled Banner..."
As soon as he saw the flag of the Federation, Mo Qian's face also turned cold: "What are the Federation pigs doing here?" ”
The helicopter began to hover over the heads of the crowd, and with a sharp sound, a rough voice was amplified through the horn, echoing around: "Brother below, is it the people of the Radiance of the Republic?" ”
Hearing this standard accent, Mo Qian and Ye Zixiao couldn't help but glance at each other, this didn't sound like a foreigner.
After being silent for a while, Ye Zixiao took a deep breath and began to shout with all his strength, allowing the voice to penetrate the noise of the helicopter: "Yes!!! ”
"It's really... Good! Now please put down your weapons and don't fire, this is the cube team under the command of Grand Duke Invid of Dawn City, the Dawn team. ”
The crowd began to whisper, Dawn City? Isn't that a city in a condominium area? Moreover, when he was 7 years old, he was attacked by Nidhogg, and the wall of life collapsed, which caused a lot of panic at the time.
Formerly owned by the Marquis de Charles, Dawn has been expanded to become the home of Archduke Invid.
Anyway, waiting in place will definitely be dead, and now the other party has no malicious intent, so it's better to see what kind of slippery head is playing.
Ye Zixiao motioned for everyone to disarm.
After circling for a while, the helicopter lowered the rope ladder and jumped three people from it.
The leader is a middle-aged tough guy with muscles and a height of more than two meters, and the outline of his face is also as sharp as a knife and axe, and his huge body is almost full of combat uniforms.
The two of them behind the muscular man were also wearing uniform combat uniforms, and judging from their momentum and sharp eyes, they should be powerful high-level evolutionaries.
Ye Zixiao squinted, walked up, and symbolically shook hands with the muscular man and said, "Lieutenant of the Wilderness Expeditionary Force of the Lin'an Military Region of the Republic, Ye Zixiao." ”
The muscular man stretched out his hand, shook it with Ye Zixiao, and said heroically: "Just call me Arnold, captain of the dawn team." ”
