Lin Chuan shuttled between the mouth of the tunnel and the river bank at a rapid pace, and the monsters that stood in his way were killed by him casually, and then thrown far away, which attracted many monsters from his path, but more often than not, he just swept past them like a violent wind, and most of the monsters did not notice his passing, but only sniffed the remaining human breath in the air in confusion after he disappeared, and let out a restless roar.
Lin Chuan blamed himself strongly in his heart, going to the river mouth in the first half of the night as usual was not to gain anything, and when he slowly walked back to the river and sea along the river bank with resentment, he heard the excited screams of monsters in the air.
Lin Chuan could easily tell that the sound was coming from Chongzhou Island, and almost at the same moment, he realized that the cannon sound that had been continuous for a long time had stopped.
There was an uneasy atmosphere in the night sky, and he suddenly accelerated his speed, and a few minutes later he came to a high-rise building less than four hundred meters away from the river bank, which was also the position he had long been accustomed to observing Chongzhou.
The familiar lights on Chongzhou Island have been completely extinguished, whether it is the searchlight used to defend against monsters at night or the sporadic lights of the settlement, which have been replaced by the continuous gunfire and the faint screams that pierce the night sky.
The monsters gathered on the shore became agitated, and they pushed each other into the river, and then clumsily swam towards the large black island in the center of the river.
The dark surface of the river is full of looming monster heads.
Many monsters were swept away by the turbulent undercurrent in the center of the river, but the slow bodies of those giant monsters blocked them like a dike, and after losing the interference of artillery fire, there was no power that could stop the monster tide from slowly surging towards Chongzhou Island.
Lin Chuan tried to make his way through the monster horde to the island, and he ran wildly towards the island with those heads that came out of the water, when a huge figure suddenly jumped out of the water and almost knocked him into the water.
The splash of water soaked Lin Chuan's clothes, and a large number of monsters completely disappeared under the squeeze of this figure, Lin Chuan struggled to jump on the back of a giant mutant cow, and looked back, now what he tried to attack him was a fish-shaped monster, very similar to the white-sided dolphin that the disaster had just born, but the size was even greater. It shook its head in the water, and there was no trace of Lin Chuan, so it twisted its body and threw itself towards the shadow of the boat on the river in the distance.
"Damn it!" Lin Chuan scolded.
At this moment the mutant ox at his feet also showed his sting, wriggling his body and trying to throw him into the water, and many of the smaller monsters struggled to jump up and bite him, he took a few quick steps forward, kicked his feet violently, and flew towards the nearest boat.
Before he could land, the dinghy popped high into the water with a violent impact, and the crowd on it cried out in despair. Some fell into the water, screaming in horror, but in the next moment, humanity was stripped from their bodies and their muscles began to swell up to a degree visible to the naked eye.
Lin Chuan almost fell into the river, he twisted hard at the moment he fell into the water, grabbed the railing on the side of the dinghy, the iron railing twisted and deformed under the huge force, and then tore, the hull also fell down with this huge force, many people fell into the water again, but Lin Chuan didn't have time to care about these anymore, all he needed was this moment of balance, and then he dropped the railing that had been completely broken, and jumped towards another giant monster in the distance.
In this way, Lin Chuan continued to borrow strength on the water, and after a few vertical jumps, he crossed the vast river surface and stepped on the soft bank of Chongzhou Island.
The island was in chaos, with semi-permanent fortifications on the banks of the river trampled to the ground by monsters, and mortars, howitzers, and all sorts of small arms scattered everywhere.
There was a smell of blood everywhere, monsters were everywhere looking down and biting corpses, and occasionally they could see the crowd being chased by monsters, and before Lin Chuan could make a rescue move, they had already been thrown to the ground by the surging tide of monsters.
Unable to do anything in such chaos, Lin Chuan ran all the way to the depths of the island, hoping to find the survivors hiding somewhere, but as far as the eye could see, all he could see was crazy monsters.
He had killed hundreds of monsters, but tens of thousands of hungry and red-eyed monsters had swarmed him, and under such an unstoppable surge, he could only flee to the shore again.
The monsters on the river became thinner, but the fish-shaped monsters became more and more active, Lin Chuan watched as the small boats full of survivors in the distance sank one by one under their attack, but he couldn't do anything, the disappointment and anger made him can't help but roar, and after a while, more monsters followed the sound and pounced in his direction.
Lin Chuan ran downstream along the river bank, there was no place on the river surface for him to borrow, he headed in the direction of the cross-river bridge, where the bridge foundation was blown down more than a hundred meters, but for Lin Chuan, it was just a distance to leap hard.
There is still a miserable apocalyptic scene along the way, the monsters may have landed on Chongzhou Island a few hours ago, at this time there are no longer any large-scale survivor teams left, maybe there will be a very small number of people hiding in the caves that those monsters can't reach, lucky to escape death, Lin Chuan thinks that it is not a rational choice to look for them in such a chaotic situation, and waiting for the monster tide to disperse again in a few days may be the time to save them.
He was more concerned about the boats that drifted downstream along the river, and of the hundreds of boats of all sizes trying to escape across the river, only a few dozen were still floating.
Some of them were approaching the south shore, and some of the monsters were starting to follow them, running towards where they might land.
"I'm going to save these people." Lin Chuan said to himself, once again speeding up his pace.
******
The tunnel was filled with all sorts of sounds, the noise of machining, the sound of electric welding, the sound of forklifts moving back and forth, and the moaning, crying and conversation of the most noisy people.
The number of survivors who came from the mouth of the tunnel had reached two hundred and thirty, and they were divided into five groups, with only a small number of people knowing each other. When the monsters rushed onto the island, they fled from their shelters in a panic, and then followed the flow of people back onto the boat. The vast majority of ships sank halfway through, and according to their descriptions, less than one percent made it to shore safely. Most of them were separated from their families and friends, and many wept after confirming that they were safe.
Lin Li dispersed his counselors, patiently reassuring them while carefully gathering information.
The situation on the island in the other people's mouths is not much different from what the survivor named Li Rong said before, which is the best news for Lin Li, the end of the world makes it easy to ignore the care and sympathy for other people and other teams, in Lin Li's mind, he just intuitively feels that these people are excellent candidates for the first batch of believers, at least, they can also be used as a control group, so that the people in the base can understand what kind of happiness they live in.
After months of hellish life, and having just escaped from a desperate situation of certain death, these people are almost on the verge of mental collapse. They have a strong desire for safety, and they have all experienced Lin Li's miraculous salvation, and for Lin Li, it is not difficult for Lin Li to devote themselves to the worship of Lin Chuan with some careful guidance.
He has already looked for several candidates suitable for the first batch of exhibitions, according to Xu Jianguo's standards, it is not that the more he can speak, the better, but those who are introverted and clumsy in words, what they say is easier for people to believe.
Lin Li was looking for Chu Zhongtian's figure in the crowd, and he should have been following Liang Jin all the time.
The sudden situation disrupted their plans, but it also deprived Liang Jin of the best opportunity to act, and with the passage of time and Chu Zhongtian's continuous persuasion, Lin Li believed that her hidden danger would be quickly quelled.
"Another batch!" There was a surge of figures in the tunnel, and the fighters of the combat unit and the inner guard immediately returned to their defensive positions, but they quickly relaxed, because the person who walked at the front of the crowd was Lin Chuan.
"How's it going?" Lin Chuan and Li Mingfeng asked in unison after meeting, and then Li Mingfeng briefly briefed Lin Chuan on the progress of the containment work. After experiencing Lin Chuan's crazy rescue operation last time, coupled with Leng Su'an's emergency plan, this time the refugee reception can be said to be easy. After the opening of the base of Guangping Road Station, the space was also abundant, and there was no difficulty in accepting these less than 300 people.
Lin Chuan nodded with satisfaction, and Li Mingfeng asked again, "How is the situation outside?" ”
Lin Chuan's expression froze, and he replied after a long time: "Of the four million people on the island, there may be only a few hundred people who survived. He was reluctant to describe the tragic scenes in detail, and Li Mingfeng did not ask in detail. Now that the island is full of monsters, I'll go up in a few days to see if anyone has survived, and the priority now is to get the people who escaped from the island here and settle them down. I came in to see how the resettlement was going, and I immediately went out to see if there were any survivors. ”
Li Mingfeng nodded, Lin Chuan called Leng Su'an over and explained a few words, then turned around and walked outside.
"Say a few words to everyone." Leng Su'an said. "Now that people are panicking, you can make everyone feel much more at ease if you say a few words."
Lin Chuan stopped, but he looked at the people around him with different expressions, and his heart was also at a loss.
Chongzhou Island, with its four million people and a complete industrial and agricultural system, is over, can the base of the Deformed Exhibition really survive? Could it be that one day, a seemingly inadvertent oversight will destroy the entire base? Can this cave, hidden deep in the ground and without sunlight all day long, always protect these only remaining people in the rivers and seas, and let them live until the day when hope comes?
Tell the truth or make up beautiful dreams? Lin Chuan stood there silently thinking, and soon, he raised his head.
"Leave the psychological problems to Lin Li, if you feel it is necessary, it doesn't matter if Brother Li or you stand up and say something. At the end of the day, everybody has to face reality, and I don't think there's any point in saying anything now. He said this, and then disappeared into the tunnel again.
Li Mingfeng and Leng Su'an stood there silently, thinking about what they should do next.
Leng Su'an looked at the direction where Lin Chuan disappeared, and said to Li Mingfeng: "Old Li, I think the tunnel mouth must be dealt with, so many people enter from there, it is not good that the nearby monsters will be lured." ”
"Possibly." Li Mingfeng nodded. "I'll arrange for a team to go to the tunnel entrance with something to eliminate the smell, and see if I can camouflage the place at the entrance."
He strode over to the members of the combat unit, while Leng Su'an slowly walked towards his makeshift office.
He looked for Lin Li's figure in the crowd, but saw that Lin Li was also looking at him.
The two nodded silently, the expressions on their faces did not change, but they were both very clear about the fall of Chongzhou Island
Linli's construction will soon bring changes to the base that cannot be ignored.
