Du Jingcai found it hard to bear the sudden change in Devil Town. Too many people had died in this disaster.
Du Jingcai wanted to salvage some of the situation, but compared to the people who had died, what he could do was negligible. Although he had sufficient reasons to do so, he had displayed astonishing fighting strength and spirit in the previous battle.
Although Chen Feng had ended the battle, it was undeniable that if it weren't for Du Jingcai, who had sacrificed himself to buy time for Chen Feng, even Chen Feng wouldn't have been able to deal with these troublesome fellows in a short period of time.
It wasn't just Ren Tianpeng, Rose, the Devil, and the Blood Devil. There was even the halfling goddess, Yodala, who belonged to the Good Faction but had a relationship with Rose!
Even Chen Feng might have felt that he was in a whirlpool and couldn't easily escape, let alone someone with Du Jingcai's strength.
Although Du Jingcai was also at the epic rank, people were divided into different grades and ranks. Although they were all living beings, there were fat and thin people. Although their realms were the same, Du Jingcai had just advanced, while Chen Feng had been in the Abyss for who knew how many years.
Du Jingcai couldn't ignore these zombies. The power he had obtained because of Li Siyu had become his capital in battle.
Terrifying energy gathered in Du Jingcai's palm. At this moment, he seemed to have completely gone mad as he attacked the zombies in front of him.
These zombies had just been transformed, so their strength wasn't much stronger than a corpse. When facing a human, they could attack with heavy fists and bite off the throat of their prey. But when facing Du Jingcai, they were like ants. He could pinch them to death with a light pinch.
However, fate often didn't go according to one's wishes. Just as Du Jingcai was giving his all to save someone, a small interlude occurred.
A woman in her early forties was besieged by a group of zombies. But she seemed to have been scared silly. She just stood on the ground without moving, as if she had completely given up resisting.
Seeing that the zombies were about to tear the woman apart and eat her, Du Jingcai was suddenly startled. He had already seen too many people die in front of him. At this time, no matter what, he had to save this pitiful person who had been left behind.
Thinking of this, Du Jingcai was unable to restrain his anger. He quickly ran toward the woman. When he was a few hundred meters away, he suddenly clenched his fist and punched forward.
Rumble!
A loud sound......... The zombies were blown away as if they were blown away by a hurricane....
"I finally saved her.."
Du Jingcai gasped for breath. Attacking from a distance obviously had a lot of side effects.
However, to everyone's surprise, not only was the woman not happy, she actually acted out of character and rushed towards the zombies.
... Don't go. Stay with me. Don't leave me. I have lost too much. I only have you now. Son, I beg you. Don't leave your mother! "
Seeing the zombies lying on the ground, the woman's heart jumped. She repeatedly shouted. At the same time, she didn't care about the injuries on her body. She directly ran out. She didn't even care about the ugly face and black nails of the zombies. She just let her tears flow out.
"Damn it. Don't go there. It's dangerous!"
Du Jingcai anxiously shouted. He hurriedly rushed over. He didn't care about the distance between men and women. He immediately held the woman. In Du Jingcai's view, the woman fell into a state of extreme excitement. He didn't know what stimulated her. She actually wanted to hug the zombies. Was she not afraid of death?
Du Jingcai was extremely fast. He suddenly threw himself at the woman. He didn't let the woman have any contact with the zombies. He had experienced a corpse tide. Naturally, he knew what zombies meant.
Those merciless zombies only needed to cut a human's skin a little bit to inject the terrifying corpse poison into the woman's body. At that time, the woman would only need a short while to become a zombie without any consciousness.
Du Jingcai painstakingly pulled the woman out of hell. How could he just watch her jump into the fire pit again?
Du Jingcai originally thought that he saved the woman once again. But he didn't expect the woman's behavior.
"Go away!" The woman's complexion changed. She shouted herself hoarse. If her hands were not held by Du Jingcai, she really wanted to slap his face.
How could this man … how could he deprive her most important family?
When the apocalypse came, the woman lost her husband, parents, intimate friends, and countless friends in life.
Until now, the woman still couldn't believe that all of this was true. She instinctively thought that she was in a dream. She just didn't wake up.
If she was alone, the woman would have chosen to leave this world long ago. She would have returned to her dream of a warm world.
Although she wanted to give up everything, she couldn't because her child survived. A boy in his first year of university. He was filial to his parents, sensible and obedient. The woman was able to survive until today because of her child.
Especially after experiencing the apocalypse. Her child was sensible and obedient. It even made the woman feel a little absent-minded. Compared to an incompetent mother like her, he was more like a parent.
Although she didn't want to admit it, the boy had already become a real man. The price of growing up was somewhat cruel. That was the death of the whole family.
The son, the mother, and the son depended on each other. They were each other's everything. In fact, the son's performance was very outstanding. Although he wasn't a professional, he still did daily exercises and fitness. In his own words, one day, he would protect his mother from being harmed by monsters.
In the eyes of the parents, no matter how old a son was, he was still a child. They supported each other and went through a lot of pain and disaster. Seeing that Devil Town was still standing tall and had truly settled down in this wasteland, they couldn't help but sigh.
Just when everyone thought that they would live a peaceful life, that the woman would watch her son get married and have children, and that she was prepared to become a grandmother, a sudden disaster came and made the already painful family even worse.
A zombie suddenly broke into her house. This made the woman think of the moment when the apocalypse came. Her family was bitten and devoured by these cruel and murderous monsters.
And now, was the same thing going to happen again?
Just when the woman was feeling helpless and scared, the man she had been protecting behind her suddenly stepped forward. He bumped into the zombie and pulled the woman out of the house. They ran for a long time until the woman could no longer run. They finally stopped.
Without waiting for the woman to say anything, the man first smiled bitterly and then said to the woman, "Mother, forgive me for not being able to take care of you in the future."
It turned out that when the boy was saving the woman, he had been scratched by the zombie. Coupled with the continuous running, he had no strength to survive. He had a premonition that it wouldn't be long before he became a real zombie.
Before he completely mutated, the boy had one more thing to do, and that was to get his only family member out of this place!
The boy roared like a madman, but he still couldn't chase the woman away. In the end, the boy still mutated. He didn't wake up from his mother's tears. Instead, he completely became a zombie without consciousness.
At the moment when the boy mutated, he reached out his hand to his family. At that time, the boy had already lost consciousness. He had completely forgotten the beautiful memories of the past, the memories of the mother and son persevering in this wasteland.
At this time, he only had one goal, and that was to devour and fill his stomach.
This was a zombie. It had no human emotions at all. From a certain point of view, the boy had already become a corpse, a corpse without consciousness.
Helplessly watching her well-behaved son turn into a terrifying monster, the woman's values and outlook on life had completely collapsed.
She completely felt that what she experienced was a dream. She wanted to leave this world and use the last of her strength to leave this place because this place didn't have the slightest attraction to her. Facing the monster's attack, she chose to close her eyes instead of running away and struggling.
Ending this dream was too important to her. It was so important that the woman would pay any price for it!
The family that she had painstakingly built was broken up just like that. She didn't even have time to properly say goodbye to her parents and her lover.
There were too many unknowns that made the woman seriously lack a sense of security. She didn't know whether what was in front of her was an illusion or reality. She also didn't know how long she would be tortured by this ruthless world.
But she knew one thing, and that was —
Everything that she cherished had been destroyed. She had nothing now. She had completely lost the hope of survival.
"Calm down, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong?"
The woman's voice suddenly rose. At this time, the man seemed to have turned into a terrifying monster. His snow-white cheeks were filled with anger, and his cold eyes flashed with fierce anger.
"He's already dead!"
Du Jingcai looked at the zombie that fell in the corner. It was somewhat similar to the woman. Only then did he realize that the zombie was the woman's relative.
This kind of situation, Du Jingcai had seen too many times. This was nothing. What was really unbearable and even depressing was to personally behead these relatives.
Just like Du Jingcai …
His hands were stained with the blood of his relatives.
The woman's actions were stopped, which allowed her to recover a little bit of her rationality. She half knelt on the ground, like a crazy demon, and muttered to herself: "Why is it always like this … Why is it always like this … Every time when I was about to touch happiness, everything would leave me."
The woman lowered her head weakly, her soft shoulders trembling slightly. Her voice contained endless unwillingness and despair, but also a faint helpless sobbing tone.
"Everything will pass."
"You said everything will pass?"
The woman broke free from Du Jingcai's restraint, carelessly wiped the tears on her face, and expressionlessly looked at the mutant child who was afraid of Du Jingcai and didn't dare to take a step forward.
Poor child, just a few days of good days, and now he has become like this.
"Let's go. Hurry to the city as soon as possible … You have to survive and then start a new life. I will let all of you live a good life. I promise you, this is the last time you will lose … "
"The last time?"
The woman laughed miserably: "But I have nothing to lose. Everything I have is gone."
Speaking of this, the woman's eyes reddened again.
Du Jingcai didn't know what to say now, because no matter what he said, these words seemed so weak.
He had once promised everyone that he would let everyone live a good life, but now?
He couldn't do this at all. Just as the woman was questioning him now, what was the use of living a good life in the future? She had nothing to lose.
"Buzz —"
At this moment!
A group of little devils suddenly emerged from the burning ruins. They were like a thick thundercloud rolling over, bringing with them an unparalleled sense of oppression. Each little devil was the size of an iron basin, and their flying speed was extremely fast.
The little devils were not very brave, but they were not so cowardly that they would miss any chance to attack (their "invisibility" and "shapeshifting" could often create such opportunities). When the little devils showed their true appearance, they could attack the opponent with the spikes on their tails. If the enemy intended to launch a counterattack, they would immediately fly away from the place.
The little devils were purgatory creatures from a kingdom of evil in the Bartow realm — a kind of devil.
The little devils were insidious and cunning devils. They usually served the spellcasters of evil in the role of advisers or spies.
At this time, as soon as the other party appeared, they rushed toward the place where the crowd was fleeing. These were the fish that had escaped the net on the meteorite. Because they could fly and were very small in size, they were lucky enough to escape the natural disaster. They were weak and did not dare to fight with professionals. However, when facing ordinary humans, they showed great lethality and destructive power.
Du Jingcai couldn't leave them in the lurch, but the woman's emotions were too unstable, so he could only comfort her: "Please believe me, the darkness will pass, and we will win the light of dawn soon."
"Is there really hope?" The woman looked up and murmured.
"Yes, there will be light!" Du Jingcai nodded and expressed his affirmation to the woman.
"Thank you." The woman pondered for a moment, as if she had figured something out, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Seeing the woman's state, Du Jingcai was relieved, and then said: "Okay, let's not talk about this. Hurry back to the city, there will be people there to receive you. Believe me, everything will pass."
After saying that, Du Jingcai charged towards the demons. Halfway through, he was still worried and turned back to take a look. But it was this glance that made his pupils shrink.
The woman stretched out her hands and didn't choose to go to the city. Instead, she walked towards the zombies whose spines were broken by Du Jingcai.
"No!"
Du Jingcai screamed. He didn't understand, after saying so much, why would the woman give up her life?
Everyone had their own way of living, and the woman was the same. Everything she had was taken away by the apocalypse. Whether the world would become bright or not, for the woman, her life had become very dark.
At this time, she just wanted to wake up, nothing else.
"Thank you!"
Hearing Du Jingcai's wail, the woman thanked him from the bottom of her heart. Du Jingcai had undoubtedly saved her life, but to a woman, life was not precious. On the contrary, being able to reunite with her family was what she wished for the most.
Humans were not only rats and cockroaches hiding in cold corners, but also moths flying into flames. They knew that they would die, but they still didn't hesitate!
