Zhang Yulin woke up at about six o 'clock in the morning. The first thing he felt after waking up was hunger, and then the pain in his broken leg was unbearable …
A few days ago, there was a rumor that the fallout shelters announced by the country were all smoke bombs. Zhang Yulin originally scoffed at such a statement because his level was high enough and he also knew the addresses of several fallout shelters built by the country. In the list of fallout shelters announced by the country this time, there were several fallout shelters that he knew, and even a few fallout shelters with a higher degree of confidentiality were included, so he did not think that the country had released any smoke bombs. On the contrary, the country's overly "honest" announcement made him feel that it was too careless.
As a state-level scientist, Zhang Yulin was not worried about his fallout shelter level. He believed that even if he could not go to the most important fallout shelter, his name would definitely be on the list of high-level fallout shelters. Especially in the field of his research, food, especially in the field of hybrid food, was very important at any time. If the end of the world came and they could hide in a fallout shelter, food would be the most important problem when they returned to the world in the future.
Sure enough, when there were a lot of rumors about monsters in the outside world, the people of the country came to him. He and his family were arranged to board a military helicopter, but the flying direction was not in the direction of any fallout shelter announced by the country. Instead, it flew directly in the direction of the ocean. This made Zhang Yulin have other thoughts. Could it be that … the country really has another fallout shelter? And the fallout shelters that were built at a huge cost before were just smoke bombs?
Just as Zhang Yulin's imagination was running wild, a huge snake appeared on the surface of the sea … No, it should be a creature similar to the legendary dragon. It had the shape of a snake, a dragon head, no claws, and a horn on its head. It was about 40 meters long. This was probably a Flood Dragon. It floated on the surface of the sea and shot high-pressure water beams like lasers into the air from its mouth, blasting seven or eight helicopters in the sky. The rest of the helicopters were damaged by the explosions of the surrounding helicopters. They either flew away with smoke coming out of their mouths or were forced to land on the sea.
Fortunately, the helicopter that Zhang Yulin and his family were on did not explode in the air, but unfortunately, the helicopter he was on was seriously damaged by the explosions of the surrounding helicopters and had to land on the sea.
The helicopter fell into the sea like water. Because he was wearing a life jacket when he boarded the helicopter, after swallowing a few mouthfuls of seawater, Zhang Yulin floated to the surface of the sea. There were also some soldiers and Zhang Yulin's family, a son, a daughter, his wife, and his wife's parents.
Zhang Yulin was an orphan, so he had no parents or other relatives. His son and daughter were only seventeen or eighteen years old, so they didn't have a spouse or anything. According to the documents presented by the soldiers who came to pick him up, the only ones who were qualified to take refuge with him were his wife's parents. Therefore, this military helicopter didn't carry many people. Otherwise, no one would be able to float to the surface of the sea if they fell.
However, after they floated out of the water, they didn't rejoice in the slightest, because they saw the flood dragon moving quickly in their direction. A few seconds later, they heard some human screams and sporadic gunshots. It seemed that the sound came from the other helicopters being devoured and counterattacked. Suddenly, everyone on the sea felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts. Even Zhang Yulin's daughter screamed loudly.
At this moment, the flood dragon that was swimming towards Zhang Yulin and the others suddenly straightened its body and looked towards the east. Shortly after, it revealed a very human-like expression of fear and dived into the sea, disappearing without a trace.
Everyone bobbed up and down in the sea. After a long time, they slowly came back to their senses. Just like that, they remained silent in the boundless sea. Perhaps it was because they felt lucky and scared that they had survived the disaster. It was not until a few minutes later that the surviving soldiers called Zhang Yulin and the others to swim towards the shore.
This place was not far from the sea. The helicopter was attacked by the dragon not long after it went out to sea, so they were not far from the shore of the mainland. Of course, it would be tiring to swim back. Relatively speaking, if it was peacetime, it would be good to wait here for rescue. However, no one present intended to stay here any longer because the fear that the dragon gave them was too terrifying. Now, the further away they were from the dragon, the better.
In this way, with the help of life jackets, everyone spent at least ten hours returning to the shore. What worried everyone was that no rescue team appeared. On the contrary, there seemed to be a violent explosion in the distant eastern sea. This made everyone even more afraid to stay. After returning to the shore, the guards led everyone to the nearest town.
Then … …
Everyone realized that the world had changed. It had completely changed. A large number of monsters ran amok. Although bullets could kill them, and they were not as terrifying as the flood dragon, this was no longer the world they were familiar with. This was a world where the end of the world had arrived!
Because of this, everyone was attacked in the ruins of a small village. Although no one died under the protection of the guards, one of Zhang Yulin's legs was broken due to the accident. Moreover, these soldiers were only escorting them along the way, so they did not carry much ammunition. After this attack, everyone had to leave the sea and head inland, hoping to find a city guarded by the army to avoid the monster tide. At the same time, they also contacted the government to send other escorts over.
However, the number of monsters and the strength of the monsters were beyond everyone's imagination. Most of the monsters were not powerful. They could be dealt with with with firearms or even some physical weapons such as machetes and axes. However, there were occasionally very few super powerful monsters among these monsters, such as the dragon from before. A large number of ordinary monsters, as well as a very small number of super powerful monsters, such a monster tide was enough to destroy a position without a large-scale army. At the same time, the road was destroyed, and a large number of monsters appeared, preventing them from reaching the big city. Therefore, they had no choice but to slowly follow in the villages, small towns, and crowds.
Zhang Yulin's family was considered lucky. Not all of them died in the mouth of the flood dragon. At the same time, although the world had changed and entered a state of collapse after the end of the world, he and his family were still safe and sound because of the protection of several soldiers. No one dared to take advantage of them. At the same time, because of the soldiers and guns, as long as they did not face the monster tide head-on, their safety was guaranteed. Therefore, his family was considered lucky.
However, that was all. It had been six days since they returned from the coast. They were now trapped in a small town. The town was barely guarded by some soldiers, but it had been cut off from the big city or the government and military. There was no support, no logistics, and no medical treatment. They could only rely on the town's defense and buildings to resist the monster tide. At the same time, the town's original resources were barely enough to support the consumption of people here. Everything was just barely, including the order of human society when the apocalypse arrived.
The appearance of the monster horde made the end of the world a reality. All the rules and order of society collapsed in an instant. The strong preyed on the weak, and all the rights and wealth of peacetime were nothing if they were not converted into the power of the end of the world. This was the current situation of the end of the world. In this world, there was no such thing as humanity, civilization, or order. Of course, because the end of the world came so suddenly and did not last long, at this point in time, the light of humanity had not been completely extinguished, and civilization still retained its last bit of inertia.
This was Zhang Yulin's current situation. Because of the soldiers' protection and care, he and his family were safe and sound. However, they still lacked food and clothing. Moreover, their injuries had not received effective treatment. Pain, hunger, and the monster horde's attacks at any time. Death followed them like a shadow. And this …
This was the apocalypse …
Zhang Yulin stared blankly at the rising sun on the horizon. To be honest, he was already a little desperate. So many days had passed, but the expected rescue did not come. On the contrary, the situation was getting worse. According to his daughter, it seemed that a few policemen had stolen two guns and some ammunition and escaped from the town in the early morning. However, in the morning, one of the policemen's heads was found hanging by the forest outside the town. This was a signal, a signal that the town's order was about to completely collapse, and he … and his family, it was very likely that …
"I hope …"
Zhang Yulin muttered to himself as he looked at the horizon. Then, he sighed. However, he didn't say anything in the end …
