Chen Feng was still strolling around the city.
After experiencing the sacrifice, his expression was much more solemn than before. If possible, he really wanted to return to order. That was his main battlefield, and the east of the bridge was too dangerous. Several powers were tangled together, and the slightest carelessness would drag him into a quagmire.
However, Chen Feng knew that without the lips, the teeth would be interdependent.
He could hide for a while, but not forever.
Even if he returned to order now, he wouldn't have to worry about so many trivial matters. However, once the insect wave came, order would not be able to ignore it.
Devils.
Chen Feng strolled along the streets.
Please remember to treat these creatures of order seriously!
Every greater devil was an outstanding schemer. Compared to the demons who used death suppression without any technical content, devils were adept at using certain things to lure humans into the darkness and become their followers.
Devil followers were all diehard.
Perhaps it had something to do with the cruel doctrines. Once a person worshipped the devil, even a child would become vicious and cruel. Their conscience and compassion would be completely taken away from them.
The largest population of the Nine Hells was made up of all sorts of devils, such as Babas, Kunnas, Erinyes, Skeletons, Kirus, Hammars, Pit Fiends, and countless other devils in a hierarchy.
Other than the devils, other creatures such as hellcats, hellhounds, imps, chained devils, nightmares, and even demonic beasts and ghosts called the Nine Hells their home.
The devils were the true enemies of the demons. The former relied on their astonishing numbers, while the latter relied on their valiant quality. After a battle, the death rate between the devils and demons was as high as 6: 1.
This meant that if the devils gathered an army of ten thousand, the demons would need to gather an army of sixty thousand to contend against them.
The chaotic nature of the demons affected the direction of the battle.
Often, before the battle began, the demons that gathered would even kill each other.
When the battle began, the chaos would reach its peak. After a battle, the number of demons that died at the hands of their companions would surpass the number killed by the devils.
Chen Feng had to face the devils directly. If possible, he would try to find the culprit behind the scenes. After all, the sacrifice made people panic, causing the insect wave to spread unchecked.
If the sacrifice could be stopped, then the survivors would have more time to resist the insect wave.
However, demons came and went without a trace. It would take some time to track them down and plan to find them.
"Please, save my sister. She's only thirteen years old. She can't die like this!"
"Please help me. As long as you save my sister, I will repay your kindness even if I have to work like an ox or a horse."
A shrill voice came from the front, interrupting Chen Feng's thoughts.
At the clinic.
This was a medical center opened in Qiaodong New Town. Unlike ordinary hospitals, the people who were admitted here were professionals who had awakened their abilities.
There were many people in Qiaodong New Town, and the number of people who had awakened as professionals was naturally much higher than in Order. In the medical hall, there were five healers. In the past, they specialized in treating the injuries of warriors and professionals.
At this time, a skinny figure was kneeling in front of the medical hall. She looked to be in her twenties. Her body was as thin as a match, and her eyes were sunken in. She was obviously malnourished. Her clothes were even weirder. She wore her clothes in front, exposing her back.
It was not that the girl did not love herself, but she had suffered serious injuries on both sides of her back. The wounds had festered and blood flowed down from time to time. If she wore clothes, it would stick to her back. When she took off her clothes, the festering pus would be torn apart. Therefore, the girl was dressed in such a weird way.
Behind her, a little girl was lying down. She seemed to have contracted a strange disease. Her legs were gathered together and could not be separated. There were even some dense skin rashes growing on her legs. There was also an unbearable stench coming from her body.
At this time, the little girl was lying weakly on the ground. Her eyes were closed and her chest rose and fell slightly. It looked like she was about to die.
These two people did not look like sisters at all. They were simply messengers from hell. No! It was as if they had been cursed. Every single one of them was seriously ill and miserable to the extreme.
At this time, no one dared to approach them. They all stood more than three meters away, as if they were afraid that the other party would infect them.
"These two are really pitiful. They are so young, but they contracted such a strange disease."
"I live next door to them. They were two pretty girls who were diligent and sensible. I don't know why, but they suddenly became like this."
"What's going on? Didn't they just eat a bunch of random things? Some time ago, someone accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms. I heard that when they died, they even dug out their own skin! "
"Sigh, in this world, if you ask me, it's better to die. It's too painful …"
The people around them discussed animatedly. Their faces showed pity and sighs from time to time. However, no one stepped forward to help them. It was not that they did not want to, but that they did not dare.
The end of the world was not like the peaceful era. If you had a headache or a fever, you could go to the hospital to register and get an infusion. This was the end of the world. Medicine was originally a rare product. Most of the time, only the soldiers in the city had access to it.
In places like the medical center, the service targets were limited to researchers, professionals, and people who had contributed to Qiaodong.
As for ordinary people, they did not even have the right to set foot inside.
In the face of such a situation, even Feng Zhiyong was helpless. It was not that he was ruthless, but the current environment was like this …
The hospital's medicine had been discontinued. It would take a period of research and preparation to resume the production of medicine. There were only five professionals like therapists in the big Qiaodong. How many survivors were there? Once the precedent was set, it would be a disaster for medical workers.
Although it was a little cruel, professionals were indeed more precious than ordinary people's lives. Therefore, the significance of these medical resources was to serve the higher-ups. The two ordinary patients in front of them were not qualified to enjoy them at all.
The door of the medical center was still tightly shut. It was like a natural moat that cut off the two people's path to survival.
The crowd around them slowly dispersed. Everyone was struggling to live. Compared to watching the show, they had a lot of work to do.
Perhaps because it affected the city's appearance, the patrol drove the two people to a corner. Not far away, a few middle-aged men who were pushing a flatbed cart sat on the side. They seemed to be chatting, but their eyes could not help but look at the two people.
Corpse haulers.
This was a profession unique to the end of the world. They did some cleaning work. Once they found a corpse on the side of the road, they would put it on the cart and burn it.
These people were like vultures, patiently waiting for the two sisters to breathe their last. The reason for doing this was to prevent the outbreak of the plague. There was no unnecessary pity. Every day, they saw all kinds of people die of accidents.
At this time, the two sisters were like abandoned stray dogs, driven to a corner.
It had just rained a few days ago.
Around the corner was a muddy road. When one stepped on it, mud and dirt would splash up. Occasionally, people would dump feces and garbage there, so the surrounding was always filled with a foul smell.
"Sister … I don't want to live anymore …"
"Qiqi, do you know what you're saying? You're only 14 years old … "
"But, it's too painful, sister … my body hurts, I'm so hungry … we can't hold on anymore, sister …"
"Qiqi …"
The girl's body trembled, then hugged her sister's body with all her strength.
A single tear fell.
The girl hugged her sister's body that was like a bean sprout and silently shed a tear. Her sister's body was extremely cold.
She weakly laid on the ground.
She seemed to be in pain.
Ever since the apocalypse arrived, they had been living together. Although her sister was still young, she was very sensible. Even if she picked up a sesame seed cake, she would split it in half and bring it back.
They leaned on each other.
But the pain in their bodies was tormenting them. In fact, they hadn't had a good rest for a week. They originally thought that it would be over after a while, but their illness was getting worse and worse.
My arm was already festering.
My sister's legs were also completely glued together.
They were tired and hungry.
Perhaps death … was truly the only release.
When mother was still alive, she would often say that as long as people are alive, hope will come. But all I saw was darkness and despair. Hope? Does it really exist?
Her eyelids were too heavy.
Under the combination of hunger and cold, the girl had exhausted all her strength. Her consciousness was slowly fading.
And just as she was about to fall into a coma, there was a faint sound of footsteps, slowly approaching.
"Puff … puff …"
It was the muffled sound of shoes stepping on the soil.
The girl used the last of her strength to open the corner of her eyes. She only saw a figure with his back to the light appear in front of her. He was like a god, stepping on the scorching sun, so dazzling.
"Mr … Mr Hope?"
This was the girl's last consciousness. Then, she fell into a coma, completely without any thoughts.
