"Have you ever thought about a question?" Er Er, who had an empty sleeve on his left arm, whispered: "I heard that underground, all news about the ground is strictly blocked."
"I know." The man in the coat nodded, "Mr. Paul Jr. said last time when he came here on behalf of Mr.
The team members will also be locked down and controlled in their residences after they return. They are not allowed to go out and are not allowed to contact anyone."
"Yes." The second child nodded: "But Mr.
"Do you know what this means?"
"Mr. X is probably a member of the Jishi Society!"
"How is it possible..." The man in the coat was stunned for a moment. He had speculated on Mr.
Even if the one-armed man's guess was reasonable, he still couldn't believe it: "How could the members of Jishihui help us? Those selfish guys want us to die cleanly, for fear that we will tip off the people underground, how could they..."
"That must be the case. Otherwise, how could he know the news fifteen minutes ago? He even knows the decision of Jishihui! Even the officers who were ordered to come out would not know this kind of news in advance!" The second child said solemnly:
"If we escaped just after they got the news, then it would be such a coincidence... They would definitely think that someone had leaked the news!"
"There are only a few members of the Jishihui. As long as we check... Mr. X will be in great danger!"
As soon as these words came out, the man in the coat was stunned.
"If we escape, will Mr.
The one-armed man looked at the settlement in front of him, looked at the people who were hurriedly cleaning up, and whispered: "I know it is not easy for us to develop to this point, but without Mr. X, we would have died in the long winter."
"I even heard that Mr.
"Mr. X is not only our hope, but also the hope of everyone! If something happens to Mr.
"He is the hope for all people like us!"
"There is no nobility in life. Mr.
The second child looked at the man with piercing eyes, and his low voice was full of determination!
"I understand what you mean." The man looked at the people who were hurriedly moving and preparing to leave with complex eyes, and whispered: "But there are so many people..."
"These people have all walked out with us in the ice and snow. Especially the two children who were just born yesterday..." He glanced at the faces with sallow faces, but their faces were filled with hope.
These people are residents who relied on each other to survive the cold winter.
Just last night, everyone did not evacuate on time, but gathered together and waited anxiously. When the cry came to mind, everyone had a dinner together for the first time in this difficult life, although the food they tasted was not very delicious.
But they are all harvested through hard work with their own hands.
Everyone's tired faces showed smiles under the firelight, not only because of the first bumper harvest, but also because just last night, two children were born in their settlement.
Since the beginning of the long winter, they have not had a newborn baby for two years.
Some people even say that the long period of low temperature has made human beings infertile until the appearance of these two children.
Last night everyone lined up to see the newborn baby, and they didn't even dare to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the two children.
They saw hope. After all, as long as they continue like this, they will become stronger and stronger, and one day they will even invade the shelter that abandoned them and enter that absolutely safe place.
But I didn't expect...
"You mean, no one can escape?" The boss sighed slowly.
"right!"
"We can choose to escape, we can survive, but our hopes will be killed with our own hands, and we are destined to die."
"But if we die, we still have hope... People like us will still live, and we will still live!"
"Is there any difference between us living a hard life and other ant nests?"
"You can't kill all the ants!"
"I once thought about the meaning of us, lowly people, living so hard, what's the point? Now I understand, maybe there are some truly great things waiting for us to do!"
The man was silent for a long time: "Then... we're not leaving?"
"Not only don't we leave! If they come to eliminate us, they will definitely take some prisoners!" The second child's eyes were fierce and sad, "I can't guarantee that all the ants in our ant nest will hate the existence of the ant king.
Keep your mouth shut!”
"You mean..." The man in the coat said in a dry voice.
"Not only can we not escape!" the second child said softly, "We must also destroy ourselves!"
"Perhaps there are still people observing us from a distance. We want those observing us to see that we are killing each other due to civil strife, and that we have corpses all over the ground!"
"They won't suspect someone of tipping off someone, because no one would tip off someone to kill us all!"
"We won't be betrayed by anyone.
Mr. X, because no one will survive!"
The man in the coat stared blankly at the ant nest that had developed in front of him. He was once happy because every member joined, once burst into tears because of the successful digging of a well, and once shed tears for every bag of harvested grain.
smile.
This is his home, the home of every insignificant ant.
I just didn’t expect that…
"Today, everything is going to disappear." The man sighed.
"These will not disappear. Although we are dead, the hope we defend is still there. Those more ant nests are still working hard to live like us." The second child chuckled: "If one day, we really succeed, human beings
Our names will not be in the history, but we are everywhere!”
"Because we are ants, lowly ants will never be eliminated!"
"The ant tribe will never be wiped out just because a naughty child dug out an ant nest! Didn't you say that if we want to survive here, we must be like ants!"
The man was silent for a long time and sighed: "Leave this matter to you. I will gather the crowd."
"Don't worry, under the pretext of safe transfer, I will collect everyone's weapons... In the escort team I am responsible for, at least a hundred people will follow me. I will make it clear to them and I will issue weapons to them.
.”
"As for the three gods... two of them may have their own ideas. It's okay. I'll treat them to a few drinks in a moment. Even if the poison doesn't kill them, it can make them extremely weak."
"Boss, you just need to gather everyone together."
"Leave the rest to me!"
The man in the coat was silent for a long time, "But children and women..."
As soon as these words came out, the second brother with firm eyes also hesitated for a moment.
"Those two children... they never left the tent last night. The resource team secretly observed us yesterday, but they probably didn't notice that our ant nest had two children."
"As for the women, some are also pregnant... They are also our hope... Among so many corpses, it is hard to tell if there are any less."
"Let them escape."
"But the remaining women still have to stay, because there are so many corpses and we can't live without men."
"My wife...it's not that I don't love my wife, but she...don't leave." The second child looked at a thin woman in the distance with complex eyes, but still trying to help move things.
"Okay." The boss nodded,
He walked towards the outside of the tent. He didn't know what his expression was, but he tried to force out a smile and said loudly: "Everyone, come here!"
Soon, three thousand panic-looking people gathered together.
"Boss, don't you need to move it?"
"Do you have anything else to tell me?"
The man did not speak, but said: "You, you, hold your child, come out!"
"All pregnant women, come out!"
Two women holding babies and more than twenty other women came out with confused expressions.
"Go there, go to the back of the mountain. No matter what happens, don't look back!"
Someone asked, but the man just said in a deep voice: "You don't have to carry things. You are pregnant or have just given birth and are not strong enough, so you need more rest."
"You guys set off early and rest there. The troops will soon load up and look for you."
Men are very prestigious in the ant nest, so the twenty-eight women left the crowd and headed somewhere.
A woman turned around and shouted with a smile: "Husband, I'll bring the clothes I knitted for the baby last night first. You bring the rest of the things. I'll wait for you in front!"
"Dear, clean up quickly and come to me quickly!"
"I still think it would be better for our child to be named Boobie Alexander. Lawrence, that sounds like a girl's name!"
They still don't know what will happen next, and some are even discussing the name of their unborn child when they say goodbye.
Their husbands responded with happy smiles.
When the pregnant women left, everyone whispered: "Boss is so considerate."
"Yes, let the pregnant woman go to the front and wait for us."
"Boss, let's go back and pack our things. We're in a hurry."
The man standing high up looked at the pregnant women walking away, and suddenly smiled and said: "Everyone, we are not going there either."
"What?"
"What are you doing! Boss, you..."
suddenly.
"tread."
"tread."
The crowds were coming from all directions, and men were approaching with guns, and they even carried two spare guns on their backs.
The gun is pointed directly at the crowd!
Their expressions were complicated, as if they were smiling or crying.
The one-armed man in the lead held a crudely made AK and shouted: "Check the bullet, turn on the safety! Load it!"
"Crash!"
In the crisp sound of the trigger.
Before the arrival of the gods, most of the escort members who were veterans loaded their guns one after another!
They are soldier ants that guard the nest, just like soldier ants showing their fangs.
"What are you doing!"
"Hayden, are you crazy! What are you pointing a gun at us?"
"Husband, what are you doing? Why are you pointing a gun at me?"
"Brother, are you crazy? What are you doing with a gun!"
"Boss, Hayden wants to seize power!"
The crowd instantly panicked.
"Everyone, Hayden is not trying to seize power." The man in the coat smiled complicatedly: "This is a joint decision between him and me."
"What?"
"Boss, what are you doing!"
The man in the coat smiled and said: "For Mr. X, we can't escape."
"That would put Mr. X in danger, and that would make all ant nests lose hope!"
"Everyone."
"We must stay."
"But in order to keep it secret, you can only leave the body!"
"We will die, but we will not die! Because the hope we leave behind will allow more ant nests to survive!"
For a while.
Someone's eyes were suddenly blank, and he whispered: "Is this so...for Mr. X, for hope..."
Some people cried bitterly and fell to the ground in fear.
Some people were furious: "I will not die! What Mr. X, I want to live!"
As he said that, a man ran outside and shouted: "Brother, cover me when I get out!"
However.
The man holding the gun in front of him sighed and pulled the trigger.
"Hang!"
The man who escaped fell directly to the ground. He looked at the gun-wielding man in front of him in disbelief, spitting out blood and widening his eyes: "Brother, why, we are obviously brothers..."
"For more brothers." The man walked over, wiped his eyes and said, "Don't worry and get on your way. My brother will finish his work in a while and will go down to accompany you."
"Hang!"
The gunshot shocked everyone. At this moment, some people realized that everyone would die here!
"You are crazy, why do we want Mr. X to die!"
"We don't know Mr. X, why should we die for a stranger we have never met!"
"You cowards want to die, but I don't want to die!"
"Those who want to survive, unite and rush out with me!"
Some people shouted and rushed out, but they couldn't rush out before they could.
"Snapped!"
Several men beside him violently pushed him to the ground!
"Let me go! You cowards, you are afraid of guns and bullets, but I am not! Why should I do it for someone I have never met..."
"Shut up, we are not cowards, you are the coward!" A man holding him down gritted his teeth and said: "I haven't seen anything before. If it weren't for that person who hasn't seen it, we would have starved to death and frozen to death in the winter era.
Got it!"
"You are the coward who is afraid of death!"
The man in the coat looked at the scene in front of him and said slowly: "Everyone, are you afraid of death?"
"We are not afraid of death!"
"We have a life to live for!"
"We were abandoned!"
The man in the coat continued: "Everyone, are you willing to lose hope?"
"I don't want to!"
"We are not afraid of death, but we are afraid of losing hope!"
"It was Mr. X who saved us...it was Mr. X...without Mr.
"There are more ant nests like ours, relying on Mr.
"The medicines provided by Mr.
"Haha, I've long been tired of living like this! Come on!"
"Okay!" The man in the coat nodded heavily: "Everyone, we are mortal, but we will not be eliminated!"
"More people like us will survive because of the hope we left behind!"
"Now, please use your lives to defend hope!"
"Please resist, please charge! Please pretend to be in civil unrest!"
Silence, brief silence.
immediately.
"Hayden, you dare to seize power!"
"I won't accept you, I will fight with you!"
A woman roared angrily, picked up a stone, and rushed towards the one-armed man holding a rifle!
He puffed up his chest, and although his tone was harsh, he was smiling crazily.
The one-armed man's mouth twitched: "Don't come close!"
That's his wife!
The finger that pulled the trigger was shaking.
"You coward..."
"Hang!"
The woman falls.
The one-armed man shouted loudly: "Everyone, kill!!"
The crowd was completely confused.
Someone roared angrily, holding a stone with his flesh and blood body, and rushed towards the gun without fear of death.
Some people were panicking and preparing to run away. They really didn’t want to die for the unknown Mr.
But before they could escape, the people beside them pushed them forward!
"What are you doing, Nila, let me go, I don't want to die, I want to escape..."
"Don't you want to escape? Haha, come on, I'll push you to escape!"
"Come on, take us to escape
Get out! Charge!"
And the other side.
"kill!"
"Seize power!!"
The men with guns shouted loudly, as if they wanted to be heard by others.
They were completely stunned and pulled the trigger!
Every time a shot was fired, someone fell.
Their expressions were distorted. They were like a group of wild beasts, advancing step by step with guns in hand, flames bursting from the muzzles, harvesting lives one by one.
Although this is a crudely made gun.
But the quality is very good. Although the people who made these guns used simple machine tools, they put a lot of thought into them.
I just didn't expect that these guns that were supposed to be used to protect our homes would be taken by those who were protecting our homes and hit the people who made these guns.
These three hundred guns were not enough to deal with Jishihui, but to deal with these unarmed people, it was like a carnival of massacre.
And just when the gun roared.
"Kill out!"
"We don't want to die!"
Two figures radiated glory and rushed out!
Bullets can't hurt them at all!
Become a god!
One of the two gods used Guangfeng, the other held a sword, and directly chopped the two men with guns into pieces, shouting: "You madmen..."
But the next moment.
"boom!"
"boom!"
A figure suddenly rushed out, knocking the two gods back!
"No one will leave today." The man who also exuded divine light said softly.
"Oh, you want to fight one against two?" The two gods grinned, "You are usually the weakest among us... wait, my divine power."
The divine light on these two gods suddenly dimmed, and their expressions became panicked and shocked. Why did they suddenly become so weak!
The man grinned, his eyes determined, and said word by word: "I told you, no one will leave today."
And the other side.
The gunshots echoed and the massacre continued.
"kill!"
These men shouted in pain. Although the muzzles of the guns were roaring, they could not feel the joy of killing the enemy.
In front of them, many of them are their relatives, their lovers, and even their own children and parents.
but.
They can't stop!
But from time to time, some men would be knocked down by the crazy crowd, and then they would be submerged in fists and stones.
Even when everyone was in confusion, another group of people with guns rushed out.
"You dare to seize power?"
"kill!!"
war.
Chaotic war.
The ants, who usually supported each other through the cold winter, began to kill each other crazily. Amidst the gunfire and fire, the land was dyed red with blood.
During the battle, someone accidentally started a flame, and a raging fire spread.
Two hours later.
"boom!"
A group of hundreds of dark military jeeps roared through the wilderness and stopped behind a hillside in the settlement.
Fully loaded guns and well-trained soldiers.
These are drawn from various shelters and come from various families of the Jishi Society.
All the major families wanted to witness this action together, and Mike deliberately let them witness it.
"General Mike, we're here." Little Paul said softly.
Mike, who was dozing, nodded and said with a smile: "Then what else is there to say, little Paul, just take people in and destroy them."
Little Paul nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and gave a few instructions, then picked up a rifle, pulled the bolt, and walked out of the jeep.
The soldiers, armed with live ammunition and wearing uniform combat uniforms, formed a battle formation and followed little Paul forward.
Little Paul took the walkie-talkie and arranged the tasks in an orderly manner: "Every unit checks the ammunition!"
"The first team, occupy the commanding heights and prepare to snipe! Don't show your head until you receive the order, so as not to alert the enemy!"
"The second team, go to the left side behind the mountain and prepare to outflank the left wing!"
"The third team..."
Little Paul looked serious as if he was about to direct a large-scale battle.
Mike looked at the picture of little Paul and the combatants commanding in the jeep. He closed his eyes and knew that there would be no gunshots.
really.
Half an hour later, little Paul gave the formal attack order, and everyone started to advance. After rushing out from the back of the hillside, there was still no gunfire.
"Tuk tuk tuk." Little Paul trotted back with a complicated expression and opened the car door.
"What's wrong? Why are there no gunshots? Did they run away early?"
Mike looked at little Paul looking lost and speechless, and thought to himself that this kid learned acting skills from him really well, so he should follow his father.
"No, they didn't run away..." Little Paul shook his head.
"What! Why didn't they run away!" Mike's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he glanced at the soldiers from various families not far away, and immediately changed his words: "I mean, since they didn't run away, then why were there no gunshots!"
Little Paul said in a dry voice: "General Mike...there...why don't you go and see for yourself."
