One hundred and forty-seven!

Among them, there is one gold level five, three silver level, eight bronze level, and ten ordinary level. A total of twenty-two combatants can be fought. And the remaining one hundred and twenty-five people, more than half of them are old and weak women and children who have no fighting ability, and half of them are strong and young, but in places like homeless settlements, the food is barely guaranteed that everyone will not starve to death, where is the excess food to make these young people fat and strong?

It's such a group of people, and they will face the living dead who don't know the specific upper limit, but the minimum combat power is also more than the bronze level. In addition to the fact that these living dead are not low in combat effectiveness, another terrible thing is that they are extremely polluting.

Although I don't know why the living dead who attacked Yabu and the others before didn't pollute anyone, no one dared to guarantee that when Yabu and the others broke through, these living dead would not be able to pollute these people.

It was true that some people were cowardly, some were afraid, some wanted to stay where they were and wait for reinforcements, but Jab eventually convinced everyone. With his unshakable prestige in the homeless settlement, and the full support of several old men who were considered highly respected among the homeless, the cowardly man finally went on the road with everyone.

"Daddy Edley, have you really decided?" After a group of people hit the road, Lin Xiao couldn't help but want to persuade Edley, the most prestigious old man among the homeless people.

This is said to have been a soul cultivator before, and his strength was not high, and he was only at the bronze level at the highest, but later he was abolished because of some things and became an ordinary person. But his insight and courage were not comparable to those of ordinary old men, and in the outcasts, apart from Yabu and a few of his men, this one had the highest prestige.

It can even be said that many times he helped Yabu manage the more than 100 homeless people.

This time, it was also a decision made by this old man that inspired the courage of all the homeless people and made everyone go on the road without hesitation.

The old man persuaded a dozen old brothers and sisters who were about the same age as himself. Each of them received an extra Molotov cocktail. Not to kill the enemy, not simply to commit suicide, but to be a glorious bullet.

Yes, these old men didn't think they would make it back to the workshop alive before they stepped out of the cliff. The average age of these seniors is over 90 years old. Edley is already more than one hundred and ten, and based on the average life expectancy of ordinary humans in the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm of one hundred and twenty years, these people are already very old.

If it weren't for the fact that some of them had demon blood (half-elves were destined to become soul cultivators, but half-demons had a certain chance of not being able to become soul cultivators), and some of them were once soul cultivators like Edley. But if the people who have cultivated to the end of their cultivation now, they may not even have the ability to follow the actions of the others normally.

The life of the displaced people is hard, even if Yabu and the others try their best, their settlement is mostly living a barely satisfying standard of living, in this case, these old people seem to age more rapidly, so from the beginning these old people knew that it was impossible for them to break out with everyone.

But Adelley was the first to stand up and speak his mind, and quickly unified the thoughts of all the old men. In the end, Yabu and Lin Xiao were found.

These old people have only one purpose, that is, to use themselves as weapons, they will set off with the team, once they encounter the siege of the living dead, they will use themselves as weapons, directly rush out with three incendiary bombs, and pull a large number of living dead to die together.

Because Tang Dou had already told them that the living dead only reacted to soul power, these deaf and blind living dead were absolutely blind to old people like Adeli and them. Even if these old people shouted slogans and rushed to these living dead, they would not have any reaction.

Of course. This non-reactive means that they will not deliberately attack these old people, and it is impossible to use this method to directly pass through the attack of the living dead, because the second level of these living dead is anything that moves, but unless there is no spirit reaction on the scene. Otherwise, they wouldn't use it as a sensing condition.

In other words, there are two ways to break out.

One is that the only twenty-two soul cultivators in the team launched a strong attack, attracting the attention of the living dead, and then the remaining ordinary people took advantage of the chaos to escape.

The other is Adeley's suggestion to put all the old people and sick people who can't leave with the team. Disability is all a bullet of honor.

It's definitely an iron-blooded idea, and it can be seen that Adley wasn't a fuel-efficient lamp when he was younger. Lin Xiao was taken aback when he learned about this plan, he thought that the homeless people would mutiny because of this, but the homeless people all calmed down because of this.

Later, Lin Xiao learned from the mouths of other displaced people that this style of giving up people who had no possibility of survival and preserving more people through self-sacrifice was the "tradition" of their settlement.

An iron-blooded, seemingly ruthless, but one that has kept this settlement of more than 100 people alive for decades. It is precisely because of this seemingly impersonal tradition that the settlement of Yabu has survived various disasters again and again.

It was Adelley who was the first to propose this "tradition", and the first to die for this "tradition" was Adley's son.

This is also the reason why an old man like Adellie is second only to Yabu in prestige in this settlement. And this time, it was Adelie's turn to sacrifice for the tradition.

"Lord Lin Xiao, you don't have to worry about us old bones. It's just a matter of fate. Our fate is over, and it will be worth it if our lives can create a future for more people at the last moment!" "Adelley is very old, and he needs to work hard to keep up with the team that is not very fast.

This old man with a face full of age spots has a pair of crystal bright eyes, like the purest child, he looked at Lin Xiao and showed a loving smile: "Lord Lin Xiao, I know your good intentions, but we don't have too many choices, don't we? Even a high-ranking existence like Lord Nicholas is risking it for us useless people, what else can we pick and choose?"

"Master, he'...... He ......, "Lin Xiao didn't know what to say, so he could only lower his head.

"I know that maybe there will be a better way for Lord Nicholas. But this approach requires more sacrifices. Actually, I also thought about hiding in the cave and waiting for Lord Nicholas to ask for help, but I couldn't do that, and when my son died for the rules I set, I told myself that I should never be cowardly. You can never be a useless person, a person who enjoys the favor of others for no reason!"

"The most important thing for a person to live is to know how to be grateful. Because there is no one in this world who 'must' or 'must' do anything for you. Even if it's a small thing, it's a blessing. Countless favors come together. That's where we are now. Always remember these favors, and when needed, bring them to the next person, to more people!"

"That's what a man should do, that's the biggest difference between a man and a beast!" said the old man with a smile. There was a divine aura on his face.

This old man is not a saint, he is insignificant to the world, he understands the world in his own way, and he also influences the people around him in his own way.

"Daddy Edley......" Lin Xiao bit his lip, and finally couldn't say more.

Sometimes, language is pale.

"Master Nicholas is a good man, a really good man. For the sake of us insignificant ordinary people, he took the risk himself, and such nobility is rare. So I'm relieved that we're old bones leaving behind the seeds of the future. It will surely thrive under the watchful eye of Lord Nicholas. ”

"And these are enough for us old bones, Lord Lin Xiao, don't be sad, really don't be sad, this is our choice!"

The old man smiled warmly, patting Lin Xiao's shoulder like his own child.

"Enemy attack!"

With a scream, the conversation between the old man and Lin Xiao was interrupted.

The enemy is coming.

Of course, from the very beginning no one expected that the enemy would not appear.

A large group of walking dead appeared in front of everyone, among whom not many humans converted. That's dozens, but hundreds of them were transformed from beasts—not monsters, but beasts.

But even so, the threat of these enemies is still extremely high.

The crowd panicked all at once. Some of the children cried, and some of the adults screamed in panic.

"Quiet, quiet for all. Think about what we're breaking through. Young people protect their children, and men protect women. The rest are on the periphery, remember what we are for, remember what we are for!" It's Adeley.

The old man's voice was still loud, and his originally stiff body was also straight at this moment, like an old general who had once again been on the killing field, he held the crutches in his hand, and strode to the periphery of the team.

"Daddy Adeley, I ...... I ......" A middle-aged man trembled his lips and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, all he could do was tremble.

"Take good care of your wife and children, and remember what we are going to the workshop for!" Adelley repeated the slogan again.

For what? For the future, for the future of one's own children.

Among the more than 100 displaced people, there are more than a dozen children, and there are more than a dozen young people who can barely be counted as children, they are the future, the future of these displaced people.

The man wanted to say something, but was rudely interrupted by an old man who came out with Edley: "What's the nonsense? Go back to protect your wife and son, even if you die, you have to protect them for me." One more nonsense, I'll kill you now!"

The old man was the man's father, and there were many families in this homeless settlement in Yabu, but there were only two families like this for three generations.

Both families now face the same problem, which is that the oldest in their families are now death squads, and they have to nest themselves in the ranks.

This cowardly man is not counted, but the son of the other family is fiercely opposed, but he was forced to die by his own old man, so he had to grit his teeth and watch his father walk to the outermost part of the line with tears in his eyes.

"Brother Edley, when we started the settlement with Lord Yabu, we were all good hands, but I didn't expect that now our sons are all a bunch of waste. Alas!" The old man, who had finished scolding his son, turned to Adeley and let out a long sigh.

"You usually spoil your son too much! Look at my son, it's different!" Another old man ran over and interjected, he was the old man who forced his son back to die and didn't rush out to find the living dead.

The old man who scolded his son muttered a few words angrily, but he was angry for a while, turned around and scolded his son a few words, and then shook the incendiary bomb in his hand: "This thing, it should be useful!"

"It must be useful. It was sent by Lord Nicholas, how could it be useless?"

"It's good to be useful, it's good to be useful!"

"What, old thing, are you scared?"

"Phew, I'm not scared!"

These old people who are walking towards the last stage of their lives, they are not serious at all, but they are going to do the most serious things.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Yamato, bring people and prepare the poisonous fire and thunder!" Kuqiu shouted loudly.

Tang Dou actually left a lot of incendiary bombs, but to be honest, even if he used incendiary bombs to arm these people to the back molars, it was impossible to guarantee absolute safety, not to mention that he couldn't do this, he didn't bring so many incendiary bombs at all, and it was impossible to make them on the spot, because there were no raw materials.

While he could use copying to make it out of thin air, those things were time-sensitive, unless he had been working full-time on the team as an incendiary bomb.

But the soul power consumed like that was not as good as him rushing out directly to open Wushuang.

Tang Dou left more than a thousand incendiary bombs for the entire team, which was all he brought, although Tang Dou also regretted a little that he didn't bring more, but when he set off, where would he have thought that what he encountered was an evil spirit fighting spirit?

Because Tang Dou had demonstrated the power of the incendiary bomb to everyone before, Yabu and the others were still relatively clear about the situation. And it seems that God is also helping them, today is a windless day, which means they don't have to worry about the poisonous smoke being blown to their side.

The reaction of the living dead is actually not very fast, compared to the living, their bodies that have begun to decay and deteriorate are quite rigid, although not so that they are unable to move, but their reflexes and mobility are a little sluggish.

Yamato took an ordinary-level soul cultivator as a bombardier, and the first wave of ten incendiary bombs was smashed out, and he achieved good results on the spot. (To be continued.) )
