Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Light of Hope
At the time of the gift delivery in Takahashi's show, the Earth Federation was preparing to enter the Second Otherworld.
As many as 100 world-renowned linguists gathered in New York to begin translating into exotic languages.
The following information has been obtained so far:
The newspaper that I brought back from the Atlas;
those torn papers on the battlefield;
and some electronic devices carried by some zombies, which are estimated to have been placed on their bodies before they mutated. Although many were damaged in the artillery fire, some remained.
Through the restoration of professionals, the Earth Federation has extracted a lot of otherworldly characters from those electronic devices.
Linguists will use these texts to compare them with each other and decipher the otherworldly languages.
At that time, the earthlings will have a better understanding of the other world.
"Ladies and gentlemen, when your decipherment mission is complete, we will reopen the Gate of Light and enter the Atlas."
"Well-known professors, the 20 million army of the Earth Federation is waiting for you."
"Please, everyone!"
The linguists nodded in unison: "Don't worry, we will be able to complete the decipherment task in 5 days at most!" ”
"Okay, thank you! Let's go! ”
"OK, Your Excellency Archon!"
Linguists are starting to get busy......
……
At the same time. Second Otherworld.
The gray sky covered the earth, and the sky and the earth were foggy.
Not the slightest bit angry!
The mysterious woman drove her motorcycle to a valley. It was hundreds of miles away from the dead city.
"Who?!"
Several rifles appeared behind the hillside, aimed at the mysterious woman.
The mysterious woman stopped and raised her hand: "It's me, Jill!" ”
As soon as the name came out, cheers rang out from behind the hillside. Several men in ragged clothes ran down the hill.
"Miss Jill, you're finally back! That's great! ”
"Is General 'Job' at the base?"
"Yes! The general has been waiting for you to come back! ”
Jill nodded, handed the bike to his partner, and walked quickly towards the valley.
Along the way, from time to time, people emerge from hidden places.
These people all have one thing in common, that is, their clothes are very shabby, their complexion is yellow, and their bodies are thin......
"Miss Jill is back!"
"Miss Jill, did you go out and find food?"
"Miss Jill, where's Chris? Didn't he come back with you? ”
"Miss Jill, is Chris waiting for us to move food at the new supply point?"
Jill didn't speak, she didn't know what to say.
She could only keep her head down and silently walk towards the middle of the valley.
Seeing this scene, everyone felt a little uncomfortable.
Can't even Miss Jill and Chris find food? If this continues, what will everyone do?
In the middle of the valley.
Jill moved a haystack and jumped off. There is a long and narrow passage underneath.
Jill lowered her body and walked briskly into the passageway. After seven turns and eight turns, the front suddenly became spacious, and some noisy sounds came from inside.
In front of it is the base of the rebel army, which consists of many natural caves.
Hundreds of survivors live in it, like ants.
When Jill walked into the base, more than a dozen children ran over happily.
"Sister Jill is back!"
"Sister Jill, did you bring something delicious back?"
"Sister Jill, I want chocolate!"
"Sister Jill, little Jenny is so hungry, my mother won't give me anything to eat! Woo woo woo ...... "A little brown-haired girl threw herself into Jill's arms, hugged Jill's legs and didn't let go, just crying vigorously.
The little girl is very young, just 4 years old, with a yellow face and thin muscles, and she does not have the agility that a child should have.
Seeing her, Jill's nose was a little sour, and he quickly picked her up. Then he took out a biscuit from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
"Little Jenny, don't cry! Come, eat cookies! ”
"Uh......h Thank you...... Sister Jill! The little girl took the biscuit and ate it with great gusto. The gobbling up look made Jill's eyes hazy.
The surrounding children looked at little Jenny with envy.
"Sister Jill!"
The children didn't shout, they just weakly shouted Jill's name.
Unfortunately, Jill didn't have any extra biscuits. That piece just now was the last ration she had when she went out to find a food source.
"Good boys, wait for dinner in the evening! Brother Chris has found a small supermarket outside and will bring you delicious food back when the time comes! ”
"Wow, Brother Chris is amazing!"
"I want chocolate!"
"Me too!"
Hearing this, the children cheered. There are smiles on their little faces.
The name of the smile is - hope!
Jill walked towards the base with little Jenny in his arms.
Along the way, people kept greeting her.
It can be seen that Jill is very popular in this survivor base.
Upon passing through the seventh cave, an iron gate appeared in front of him. Two guards with guns stood at the door.
Jill put the little girl down: "Little Jenny, go play by yourself, my sister will go to the general's grandfather to talk about business!" ”
"Well, goodbye, Sister Jill!"
The little girl waved her little hand sensibly and watched Sister Jill leave.
The iron door opened, and Jill handed the rifle behind her back to the guards, and walked inside.
The room behind the iron door was not large, except for a desk with many papers on the table, as well as a radio station.
Very basic!
An old man with gray hair sat behind a desk, looking at paperwork.
"General, I'm back!"
Hearing the voice, the old man raised his head: "Sit down!" ”
"Yes!"
Jill sat down on a wooden stool in front of his desk.
"How? Went out and found a new food spot? ”
Jill shook his head: "I'm sorry, General, Chris and I didn't find food!" ”
Hearing such an answer, the general stood up, his face a little bitter.
"The base has been restricted for half a month, and if it continues like this, the rebel army will not be able to survive for long!"
Jill: "I'm sorry, General! The food in the surrounding countryside is empty, and only the interior of the city has new food. ”
"It's too dangerous inside the city to attack it with our current strength. Not to mention that there are also military satellites of the Umbrella company in space, whose missiles fall as soon as they are detected. These damn executioners, who have turned billions of people on the entire planet into zombies, are still not sparing us. ”
"All of them deserve to go to hell!"
The general roared loudly, angry and desperate in his heart.
At the end, the general sat back in his chair and muttered, "No, no! They haven't gone to hell yet, but we're in hell. ”
"Forty years, a full forty years have passed since the beginning of the Dark Ages. Ninety percent of the more than 50 million survivors on this planet have died. The air is polluted, the sea is polluted, the plants are polluted......"
"Well, how long can we survivors in hell last?"
"General!" Jill asked, "Will we be able to hold out until the day of victory?" ”
"I don't know, I don't know! Once our rebel army numbered tens of thousands, but now? 800 or 900? Hey......"
The general took a deep breath, suppressed the hatred in his heart, and began to ask about the matter: "Gil, let's say, what are you coming back early this time for?" ”
Hearing this, Jill said, "General, last night when Chris and I were looking for a food source, we heard the sound of a corpse riot in 'Kamai City'. Later, we went to investigate and found a giant light gate that seemed to be made entirely of light......"
"What? Doors made of light? ”
The general was shocked: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" There is no such amazing technology in this world, not even the umbrella company! ”
