Chapter 4: Confronting Death

In Li Linkong's life, there has never been a day when he has witnessed so many deaths.

By the time the city was broken, the army had already withdrawn into the inner city. Seeing the monster roaring and approaching, many people couldn't bear the pressure in their hearts and fled from their homes to the inner city wall.

Thousands of people gathered in front of the inner wall gate, which had been closed tightly since the last missile truck had withdrawn, and no matter how much the crowd cried, it did not loosen in the slightest.

The monsters didn't have time to search for the humans hiding in their homes, and they were tightly attracted by this large number of gathered life breath and rushed madly.

The crowd became more frightened when they saw the black tide approaching hundreds of meters away, the women let out bursts of desperate screams, the children cried bitterly and burrowed into the arms of their parents, and even many men began to collapse, some of them frantically hit the city wall with their heads, and they did not hesitate to do anything about the blood, some ignored the wooden stick and rushed to the monster to push away the crowd, and some liberated the beast before they died, their expressions were crazy like monsters, roaring and throwing down the women around them and tearing up their clothes, and the screams caused layer after layer of deeper fear, and the crowd was completely desperate.

The first monster to arrive pounced on a child who had been abandoned by a terrified parent, and the foul mouth crushed the child's throat, and the crying came to an abrupt end, followed by a "gurgling" choking and gushing blood fountains.

Blood splattered on the monster, triggering a roar of excitement from it and its group, and several monsters behind them instantly accelerated, tearing several more people apart. Everyone frantically retreated, frantically pushing the people in front of them forward, but this could only delay death for a few seconds, and the monster tide roared forward, but in half a minute, all the cries and screams disappeared.

Li Linkong witnessed all this from the side, only felt a chill down his spine, and suddenly heard a suppressed cry from beside him, and when he saw it, he found that it was his sister, and he covered his mouth tightly with his hands and didn't dare to make a sound, but he couldn't stop the crystal tears from slipping from the corners of his eyes.

The frightened eyes melted instantly, turning into a touch of tenderness and pity, reaching out to take his sister into his arms, and gently stroking his sister's back with the other hand, muttering, "Su Ya, don't worry, I will always be by your side." Even if it's death! ”

Monsters were already scattered in every street of the city, twisted crawling figures drawn to life and rushing into some of the houses with screams of despair.

On the fourth wall, there was formed army fire to purge the hordes of monsters that had been attracted by thousands of humans below, followed by repeated indiscriminate artillery attacks, even at the cost of implicating the surviving survivors of the houses along the walls. Enraged, the monsters rallied most of their scattered tribes to attack the fourth wall. It was still a repetitive cascade of flesh ladders, which reached the top of the city wall after countless sacrifices, and the army retreated in an orderly manner once again, and a large number of monsters entered the next city as a result.

Seeing this situation, Li Linkong suddenly woke up, it turned out that the military had designed this kind of plan from the beginning, using the city wall as a shield, the army firepower as a spear, and the flesh and blood of thousands of civilians as a guide to divert the monster tide layer by layer, trapping and killing between the city walls! After several waves of siege over the wall, the number of monster tides has decreased sharply again and again, and finally they will be able to hold Kyoto!

"What a plan, what a plan! It's really a success! If Li Linkong hadn't seen thousands of people killed, and hadn't heard the terrible screams that were still echoing in the city, he might not have felt much, but when he witnessed all this with his own eyes and comprehended the military strategy, his heart was irrepressibly filled with monstrous hatred, his teeth were clenched, and even the roots of his teeth were oozing blood, "In the eyes of high-ranking people, is the life of the common people just a chess piece in the game?" These living people are the bait for you to kill the monster tide??? ”

Li Linkong gritted his teeth and hated secretly, and suddenly a loud sound of iron doors colliding downstairs came. Comforting his sister, he ran out of the window and looked down, and there were several monsters crashing into the iron door, and the monster's face was clearly reflected in Li Linkong's eyes at such a distance, except for being full of maggots, it was no different from ordinary people, could it be transformed by humans? As soon as he thought of this, Li Linkong suddenly noticed that they were all wearing modern clothes! Thinking of the terrifying number of this group of monsters, Li Linkong knew that the prediction he had made to the fat man had come true, and it was estimated that many cities would fall under the first wave of attacks.

An ear-piercing scream upstairs pulled Li Linkong back to reality, and the monsters heard the sound and moved, and when they looked up, they found the helpless mother and daughter upstairs, Aunt Wang and her daughter.

Li Linkong's parents were not around since he was a child, and he told Aunt Wang about everything, and Aunt Wang regarded him as her own and called him together during the New Year's holidays, and after he took in his sister, Aunt Wang was like an extra daughter, and she was still the same to them.

Li Linkong has a deep affection for them, but the few monsters downstairs will not give up because of this, stimulated by the fear of humans, they attack the iron gate even more frantically, and after a few minutes of no result, they actually roared and climbed up along the outer wall! Completely annihilated human nature, the instinct of the beasts and their already twisted bodies made them walk on the outer wall of the building, seeing this, Aunt Wang and her daughter screamed in even more horror, hurriedly closed the window and closed the curtains, and even Li Linkong could hear the sound of them falling to the ground in fear downstairs.

Li Linkong knew in his heart that all they did was to cover their ears and steal the bell, the fragile glass could not stop the monster at all, and the collapsed psychology could not resist, once the monster climbed upstairs, it would only take a few seconds, and they would die tragically in the mouth of the monster.

The noisy corridor in the past is extremely quiet at the moment, everyone is in danger, I just hope that the monster will leave after eating Aunt Wang's family, even if you still want to eat people, you only hope to find another home, I haven't thought about it at all, dozens of people in a building, if you are united, a few monsters are not a problem at all, because as long as you calm down, you can find that although it is a monster, but in addition to the ferocious aggression and awakened bloodthirsty instinct, the speed and strength are actually no different from ordinary people, and there is no wisdom, only rampage.

Li Linkong discovered this early, and then thought that now he has infinite strength for some reason, fast as the wind, but a few thoughts flickered in his mind, so he relented and told his sister to hide in the room and lock the door, even if the monster found it, he couldn't break through the doors and windows reinforced with alloy, and his sister's safety didn't need to worry, and then he lifted the mountain knife, pinned the dagger to his belt and rushed out of the door, carefully locked the door and came upstairs, and heard the helpless and desperate cry of the woman from inside at the staircase, The hesitation that still existed in Li Linkong's heart was categorically gone, and he stepped forward and knocked tentatively on the door, but there was no reaction as expected, only continuous crying.

yes, if you're calm enough to open the door, why don't you run to another floor? Thinking of this, Li Linkong smiled slightly, which can be regarded as a joy in suffering. Fortunately, he is as close as a mother and son to Aunt Wang, and he has always known where Aunt Wang hid the door key.

Insert the key to open the door, step in, and when you look up, you can see the mother and daughter hugging each other by the wall and crying bitterly, and they didn't even notice Li Linkong's arrival, just like an ostrich burying its head in the sand, and the two have turned a blind eye to the future.

Li Linkong's eyes flashed with unbearability, and he was about to open his mouth to call for Aunt Wang, who had accompanied him for ten years and filled the vacancy of maternal love in his heart, when suddenly the window shattered, only to hear a roar, and three black shadows jumped into the room.

Aunt Wang and her daughter let out even more desperate screams, and Aunt Wang looked up in horror, and at the same time saw the monster's face full of maggots, she also saw Li Linkong!

"Sora! Run! She yelled, and she didn't dare to resist in the face of death, and she actually rushed out of the corner of the wall at this moment, wanting to block in front of Li Linkong!

Although the speed of the monster is not very fast, it is not comparable to a middle-aged woman, but in an instant, a monster in the head has already flown towards Li Linkong....
