Chapter 217 Hope

Five days, exactly five days!

City construction is very fast, and it won't take too much time if you have earth ability.

But guarding this new city is not easy.

This is the third time Shen Ming has gone out to fight outside the city gate today. There is no way to count how many Zerg he has killed.

However, the ground under his feet has become solid. This is a swamp. It has become solid and it has been filled in with Zerg corpses!

Everyone in Hope City was mobilized, and the two cooperating camps were also dispatched, but everyone was enveloped in a feeling of despair.

It has been five days, but the Zerg have not retreated or decreased at all, as if they cannot be killed no matter how hard they try.

When everyone was tired, they walked down the city wall silently and sat down on the ground. Those who felt stressed took out the cigarettes distributed above and started smoking silently.

"Dad, will we be eaten by bugs?" In the rest area, a five-year-old girl asked the middle-aged man next to her who had broken an arm.

The middle-aged man slightly clenched his only fist and said, "No!"

"Let me tell you, Xiaozhi is indeed a liar." The little girl suddenly smiled happily, and her innocent smile made the middle-aged man clench his teeth and bleed without realizing it.

Although ordinary people like them only needed to hide on the city wall to attack, many people died. After all, the Zerg also had types that could attack from a distance.

He knew Xiaozhi's father. He was struck by the Zerg's light blade during the battle the day before yesterday, and was severed from the waist. He was already dead.

"Poor child, maybe he is so pessimistic because of his father's death!"

The middle-aged man sighed slightly, then stroked his daughter's head lovingly, and secretly decided that he would never die, and he would never let the Zerg attack this city.

When he gets a daughter in his old age, he naturally cherishes it very much. He really doesn't want his daughter to be harmed in any way.

"Okay, daddy is going to help. You stay here and stay well, you know?" the middle-aged man smiled at his little daughter.

The little girl had a frightened expression on her face for a moment, but soon she nodded silently and hugged the teddy bear tightly in her arms.

Xiaozhi's father left like this and never came back...

The middle-aged man glanced at his little daughter reluctantly, then resolutely stood up and headed to the city wall. There are many people like him in this city, and everyone fights to protect their loved ones from being taken away by the Zerg!

"Lao Zhang, you have gone up for the fourth time today. Three times is enough for each person." The woman who issued the weapons said immediately when she saw the middle-aged man.

Lao Zhang smiled and said: "You know the current situation very well. Just try your best if you can. I've had enough rest."

"Well, if you see my son later, tell him to be careful." The woman said worriedly, and handed the specially made machine gun to Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang nodded, pulled the safety of the machine gun, and immediately rushed to the city wall. From the square hole, he could see outside, and the battle was still fierce!

"Are you an ordinary person?" The man next to him shot a bright rocket and then looked at Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang nodded and said: "Yes."

"I've been standing here for a day, and you've gone back and forth four times. You don't need to come again, right?" the man said with a smile.

Lao Zhang said seriously: "It's a matter of life and death now. Although I don't have much effect, at least I won't sit still and wait for death!"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to us. My captain is very strong. He should be on his way back now. As long as he comes back, we will definitely be saved." The man smiled proudly, looking really relaxed.

Lao Zhang was stunned and said: "Who is your captain?"

"Hey, this is a secret!" the man laughed.

"Oh!" Lao Zhang saw that others didn't say anything, so he concentrated on shooting.

The man is depressed. If you ask again, I will tell you.

However, Lao Zhang obviously did not ask any more questions, but concentrated on hunting down bugs.

The man who was asking for trouble had no choice but to concentrate on attacking the Zerg. He still regretted it. He had just said it outright when he had known it earlier. Now he feels very uncomfortable holding it in his heart.

Neither of them spoke anymore. After all, this was a battlefield where the life and death of everyone in the city depended.

Most of the day passed like this. Lao Zhang was sitting helplessly behind the city wall, leaning against the city wall and wrapping his right hand with a rag. His mouth had been cracked by the reaction force of the gun!

The man was also sitting on the ground, eating compressed biscuits with big mouthfuls.

"Here, these are compressed biscuits that ordinary people can eat!" The man took out a pack of biscuits and handed them to Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang was indeed hungry, so he took it and said with a smile: "Thank you."

"You're welcome, my name is Huang Hua, what's yours?" Huang Hua said with a smile.

Lao Zhang opened the package and said: "My name is Zhang Xukai. I am a bit old. You can just call me Lao Zhang!"

The two chatted for a while, ate compressed biscuits, drank a large can of water, and continued to fight.

After fighting until night, many people finally couldn't stand it anymore and rested on the spot.

Because Huang Hua was a new human being, he could continue to persevere, but Lao Zhang could not. He leaned directly against the city wall, holding the machine gun and fell asleep.

"Damn Zerg, I'll fight with you!" Suddenly a man yelled crazily, climbed along the square hole to the top of the city wall, and then jumped straight down with a shout.

Normally, Shen Ming would have been able to save his life, but during the current battle, everyone had too much time to take care of themselves, so the man fell directly to the ground and fell to death.

After five consecutive days of high-intensity fighting, everyone's nerves have become unbearable. Going crazy is actually a kind of happiness.

Looking at the dead people, everyone can't help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying and a fox dying. Who knows whether they will be next?

Looking up at the endless Zerg race that has been fighting for five days, despair, fear, anger, all kinds of emotions are mixed together, but it makes people feel powerless.

Where is the hope for mankind?

If there is a God, please send a miracle to save us puny mortals!

Everyone longs to be rescued and longs for a miracle!

Unfortunately, there is no miracle. The moon has risen in the sky, but the battle still continues. Because it is dark, it is even more dangerous.

The moonlight was no longer enough to illuminate the earth, and the Zerg, who were good at sneak attacks, shot out black spikes one after another, killing many people at once.

Some people fell to the ground and wailed, some were shot through the legs, some were shot through the arms, and some were shot through the stomach, but they couldn't die for a while, so they pressed their hands on the spikes and trembled all over.

Let out a shrill cry of pain.

Paramedics arrived quickly and treated the injured immediately, while the dead were carried away and burned.

Although it was handled very quickly, everyone was desperate.

It's past twelve o'clock now, it's the sixth day!

"Huang Hua, do you think there is really hope for mankind?" Lao Zhang was lucky not to be injured, but the woman on his other side was shot in the brain and died on the spot.

He had no time to lament the fragility of life, but felt confused about the future of mankind.

Huang Hua said firmly: "There must be!"

"Why are you so sure?" Lao Zhang suddenly roared, his eyes were red, and it was obvious that he was reaching his limit.

Huang Hua looked at Lao Zhang and said, "Because I believe in my captain, he will never give up on us or humanity!"

"You always say captain, captain, look below, how many people have died. Is your captain here? Where is he? If he can really save us, then come out!" Lao Zhang said excitedly.

Perhaps there was providence in the dark, and as he roared, a huge halo appeared in the sky.

Everyone immediately looked up at Guanghua, feeling fearful, confused, or at a loss.

Suddenly a huge claw stretched out from the halo, and then a giant dragon slowly appeared from the light.

"Captain!" Huang Hua's eyes were extremely sharp and he immediately saw Gu Yue flying towards the dragon, so he shouted in surprise.

Lao Zhang looked at the giant dragon blankly and was stunned for a moment. Could it be that the captain of the man in front of him turned out to be a giant dragon?

Then the giant dragon opened its mouth and shot a beam of white light at the vast sea of ​​​​insects. In an instant, the sea of ​​​​worms lost half of the mutated insects.
