Chapter 318: Departure
The sky was so strange and chaotic that I couldn't tell what time it was. The time of the watch is completely out of line with the sky in the sky, so everyone simply ignores it and feels the time with the instinct of the human body.
This time, things seem to be a little different than usual. Once upon a time, when the Adventist emerged from the vortex, the vortex would disappear with it. But this time it was different, since the strange vortex in the sky finally appeared, it has never disappeared. This unusual vision made even the ignorant people who knew nothing about the truth of the world aware of the seriousness of the situation, and everyone stood on the beach, staring in amazement at the black clouds that kept shrinking and swirling in the sky, and their faces were extremely solemn.
On the beach, the calm of the sea left deep dents in the ground whipped by radiant ripples, like the surface of the moon. After the towering water column receded, it left a murky water surface in the potholes, and some of them were floating fragments of people's daily necessities.
Their convoy was in shambles, with shattered glass, crumpled iron sheets, and some of them completely broken and unusable to drive. fled all the way, and the guys they carried with them didn't have much to do, but after suffering a series of heavy blows, there was not much left.
There are also many people who have lost their loved ones in the accident just now, and the sobbing cries are still wafting on the silent beach.
The building of the City Patrol Division has collapsed in half, and the wind is blowing in through the hole in the glass, and the fax, Lao Li and others have already parked their cars and entered the building to rest. Bai Henglei has already sent someone to prepare the necessary supplies for them, and they can leave on time after resting early tomorrow morning.
As I have just checked, the successive radiation storms have destroyed the power system, so it can only be lit by firewood at night.
"Hehe, it's the first time I've lit a fire indoors, and it's quite interesting." Lao Li said with a smile.
"yes, it's like camping, it's fun!" The "Yanshi" was very excited, and kept adding firewood and grass to the fire.
Ren Yi picked up a few sleeping bags from outside and threw them on the ground, and the empty hall of the City Patrol Division was reflected in the firelight. In addition to their group, there were also groups of patrolmen around the firelight scattered around the other corners.
Ren Yi sat down, poured water from the copper kettle above the flame, and hot bubble noodles.
This feeling is indeed very novel, and it somewhat dilutes everyone's sadness before facing the decisive battle.
"After we set off tomorrow, what will happen to these people on the plains around the sea?" Bai Henglei was busy with the things in the City Patrol Division and joined them.
"This was originally a temporary resettlement place, and life was very inconvenient. Besides, the water and electricity facilities have been cut off, so they really shouldn't be allowed to stay here. Ren Yi frowned and thought.
"It's better to let them migrate to the Central Alliance," Lao Li grabbed another handful from the dry wood next to him and threw it into the fire, "That weird whirlpool has appeared in the sky, and I think it won't be long before someone will appear." What would they do if we all left? ”
Ren Yi nodded, "Yes, let all the main city patrol guards escort them." The warriors also departed, and they did not deserve to endure these pains again. ”
"Bai Henglei," Ren Yi turned his head, the firelight flickered brightly and darkly on his face, setting off the emotions in his eyes very seriously, "The dragons can't be leaderless, besides, they don't know about the situation in the Central Alliance, you will escort this trip." ”
"Huh?" Bai Henglei was shocked, "What are you talking about?" Aren't you going to the Northeast Alliance to find a lab soon? Liang Ye also said that this trip will be extremely dangerous. Isn't it true that the more people there are, the better? ”
"Yes," Lao Li said, "don't be reckless in this kind of thing." Xiaobai is very capable, and he has been helping a lot all the time, so he can't do without him. ”
"The ultimate goal of all this is for the continuation of humanity as a whole. Now that the global population has shrunk dramatically, I don't even know if there will be a tenth left, and one can be saved. If we can't even protect the people in front of us, then what are we talking about protecting humanity? Isn't it enough that the lessons of the previous generation of humanity perished, when there is finally a glimmer of hope, but looking back has already found that there is no one behind you who can help you...... Are we going to repeat the mistakes of the past? ”
There was silence in the hall.
"Okay," after hesitating for a moment, Bai Henglei nodded, "Tomorrow I will lead the City Patrol Division to protect all the people from evacuating." Don't worry. ”
"There are still a lot of people, and joining the 'round sky' is a very powerful force. I'll let them do it. ”
Ren Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "I will also ask Liang Ye to send someone to pick you up." ”
After casually dealing with dinner, the sky was still chaotic. The crowd scribbled out their sleeping bags, circled the fire, and fell asleep.
After about eight hours, the patrol guards in charge of the night woke everyone up.
Ren Yi got up in a daze, and then thought of the day when he was going to set off to find the laboratory, and his heart immediately woke up as if he had been poured a basin of cold water.
Everyone woke up one after another, and hundreds of people in the entire hall were silently and quickly packing up their things, making a rustling sound.
About an hour later, everyone walked out of the dilapidated and collapsed building, and in front of them was a convoy loaded with all weapons and household items, ready to set off.
Ren Yi stood on just a few steps outside the building, and people kept passing by him, shadows crisscrossing the ground. Ren Yi looked back at the hall, and a trace of blood-red sunlight came out from behind the clouds and fell to the ground. The originally prosperous main city of the Eastern Alliance is in ruins at this moment. The City Patrol Division Building, which used to be full of people coming and going, is now frighteningly empty. All that was left was black ashes on the ground.
"Let's go." Fax walked up from behind him and patted him on the shoulder.
At the bottom of the steps, the homeless convoy led by Bai Henglei has already started. The Jeep of the City Patrol Division walked ahead, followed by all kinds of vehicles of various sizes and colors. Bai Henglei's car was at the end, and when he passed by Ren Yi and the others, he lowered the window and waved his hand to them.
Ren Yi looked at the vehicle in front of him that had been hidden in the gray-white mist, and could only see the vague taillights, and he couldn't help but feel a sadness in his heart.
The convoy went farther and farther until it completely disappeared in the eyes of Ren Yi and others.
There were only five people left on the steps, and the eerie glow of blood-red in the sky completely emptied them.
The gray cyclone seemed to expand again.
"It's time for us to go, too." Fax and take the lead down the steps.
Bai Henglei left them with three cars, which were filled with enough ammunition, weapons and daily necessities.
Ren Yi sat in the driver's seat and held the steering wheel for the first time in a long time.
The three cars started one after the other, turned their heads, and set off in the opposite direction to the convoy.
The front of the car jolted into the gray mist, and the headlights were like a pillar of light, as if piercing the physical substance.
