Apocalypse Demon Summoner

Chapter 289
Cruel?
At this time, night fell, and it was the time to lie in bed and sleep soundly. However, under such circumstances, some refugees who looked like lonely ghosts poured into the ruins. There are many broken corpses, what is their purpose, the answer is almost ready to come out.

eat human.

This is an extremely bright red word.

These people are not under Xing Jun's command, so naturally they can't enjoy the kind of benefits that brothers die for me, and I also take care of siblings and relatives.

All of this is the truest portrayal of the end of the world.

In name, they are the citizens of this town, and they have food gifts every day, but the food is mostly rotten things, either hairy or hard, and the quantity is extremely rare, which cannot guarantee the daily needs of the refugees. .

In terms of force, they are just a group of old, weak, sick and disabled who can't go out to hunt food. In terms of morality, the superiors have not justifiably abandoned them. If you died of starvation, I can only blame you for your poor resistance and excessive appetite.

Driven by this, some refugees had no choice. In order to survive, they set their sights on the dead bodies on the roadside.
In the doomsday, what is the most indispensable thing?
It's not water resources, it's not collapsed high-rise buildings, and it's not gold all over the ground, but... countless dead people and corpses.

This is a ceremony, and it is a kind of carnival belonging to refugees. When night falls, these mice-like refugees walk out of their homes and come to the other side of the city. This deserted dead city is designed to devour their own kind .

"Is this human?"

The little queen was stunned, looking at the refugees in front of her with green eyes, a sneer grinned at the corner of her mouth, she looked up at Yang Shuo, and asked softly.

"Humans are really complicated creatures. The thing you like to do most is to kill each other. I have seen many bugs or beasts die along the way. They will not swallow them, but you... …But they are still killing each other. I haven’t seen the future and the dawn you mentioned, and I haven’t seen the mutual benefit and mutual assistance you mentioned. Is it because my eyes are not good? , should be annihilated in the long river of history."

What the little queen said is actually not wrong. Because of their intelligence, some bugs and beasts do not have as complicated thoughts as humans. As the same kind, they will not devour their dead partners, and they will even find a softer one. place to be buried.

But human beings are different. Compared with those ignorant creatures, human beings have more complex emotions. In order to survive, they will even do things that even feel terrible to themselves.

For example... cannibalism.

Yang Shuo was expressionless. Whether it was the little queen's ridicule or the devouring of these refugees, he never lost his mind at all. He has seen too many such scenes, from nausea, confusion, hesitation to gradual comfort and numbness, Yang Shuo's heart is far more tenacious than imagined.

How sad, if people were not pushed to the limit, how could these refugees rely on corpses to replenish their strength?

If you have to find a culprit, then if you want to blame it, you have to blame this chaotic era. Under the end of the world, human nature begins to distort. When they eat human flesh, they... are no longer human...

................................................

The other side of the ghost town.

The two figures walked forward with difficulty on the ground, leaving a series of solid and clear footprints behind them.

Those are two children!

A man and a woman, the boy looks only fourteen or fifteen years old, and the girl looks even younger, only about ten years old.

Their eye sockets are deeply sunken, their pupils are greyish, and their long-term nutritional deficiencies have caused their appearance to change a bit, as if they have taken drugs, and they are a little out of shape.

It's hard to imagine that there are such young children in such a harsh environment. They are tired and weak, but they don't stop at all, continuing to search for something in this ghost town.

The two children stopped. They were digging on the soft ground with simple tools. They were digging a kind of minced meat food. It didn't taste very good, it was astringent and bitter, but it was a kind unique to the end of the world. food.

After the rainy season, these minced meat will grow in the soft soil.

"Brother, there is less and less food, will we starve to death?"

Beside the boy, the ten-year-old girl was already exhausted, her thin, melon-pointed face was covered with dust, and her eyelids were swollen with high dark bags. It was obvious that she had not slept well recently. The little hand also scratched a lot of skin, and there was a trace of blood sticking out, but she didn't cry out for pain or hard work, just trembling her thin shoulders, and softly asked the ten-year-old boy.

"Xiao Jing! Don't talk nonsense, I can feel that we will find food immediately, and if we persist for a while, we will find it immediately!"

Although the boy was equally haggard, his eyes were unusually bright and his tone was full of firmness. He believed in miracles, and believed that what his mother said back then was artificial.

Xu Fa, a 14-year-old ordinary boy, is more accurate. He is already a teenager. After living alone in this doomsday for so long, he has already bid farewell to his identity as a boy.

He is not considered an orphan, and under the care of his parents, he also had a happy childhood.

However, the doomsday is ruthless. Under a bug attack, their parents were devoured by bugs, and Xu Fa escaped with his younger sister by chance, and they have lived this kind of life without a place ever since.

The miserable life did not make Xu Fa feel hopeless. On the contrary, the obsession to protect his younger sister filled him with fighting spirit. He believed in everything, believed that miracles could be created, and the impossible made possible!
Xu Jing nodded, he firmly believed in everything Elder Brother said.

In this environment where death and gray are the main theme, the dependence of the brother and sister is the only motivation that can keep each other alive.

Although some food will be distributed in the city every day, those foods are not enough to fill the stomachs of the two of them. For the rest of the time, they will try their best to get some food, and this minced meat is undoubtedly one of their recipes .

Xu Fa rarely communicates and contacts with strangers. Not far from them, some refugees are devouring corpses. This kind of thing has already become a phenomenon under the night.

In times of extreme hunger, human beings become a madman.

Xu Fa once saw with his own eyes that some refugees cut up a child who was weaker than them and ate it. It wasn't a corpse, and the child was even breathing when the food was divided.

This scene left a deep imprint on Xu Fa's mind. He deliberately stayed away from the crowd and only lived with his sister in the past. He didn't hate those people. After all, he was just a child who grew up at the bottom. , also with crazy desires and needs.

The reason why he stays away from the crowd is that he is afraid that those who are extremely hungry will attack him and Xiao Jing. Now is not the time, at least, he needs to have the strength to resist and kill before he is qualified to share those who are in the eyes of ordinary people. A special "food" that looks disgusting and cold.

Life is cruel.

They still need to go through a long period of time for digging like the current one.

"Clap clap clap..."

Suddenly, there was a sound of digging the ground not far away, accompanied by a slight rise of dust, it was a corpse-spotted beetle.

"Ah! Brother...it's a bug!"

Insects are inexhaustible, just like sparrows and grasshoppers in peaceful times, these insects pervade every corner of the city, the giant insects in residential areas have been wiped out, but in this kind of ghost town, it is inevitable that there will be Some slip through the cracks.

And right now, this worm the size of a calf is a midnight forager.

Xu Fa has seen the killing of insects before. This is a powerful creature with corpse spots all over its body, and it has the strength to kill himself and his younger sister with just a few gestures.

After Xu Jing saw the corpse spot beetle, her face turned pale with fright, and her small body trembled for a while. The corpse spot beetle in front of her eyes was so terrifying, especially the pair of jaws, which were as sharp as a sickle!

"Brother, run!"

Xu Jing looked at Xu Fa and said tremblingly.

"No, we can't escape. This is a flat road. We can't escape its pursuit. Xu Jing, put your head down. It won't stay here for long. As long as it leaves, we'll be safe."

Years of wandering made Xu Fa learn to be calm. At this moment, a calm light shot out from his eyes, and he slowly lowered his head, hoping that the spotted beetle would leave as soon as possible.

During the four years of wandering, Xu Fa and Xu Jing encountered countless crises. Each time, they survived without any danger. This time, Xu Fa was also full of confidence.

It's just that God didn't favor them this time.

"Squeak..."

Suddenly, there was a sound of insects not far away, and accompanied by a slight rise of dust, the half-meter-long corpse-spotted beetle appeared on the ruins, and the pair of red beetles full of resentment and greed Excited rays of light radiated from his eyes, locking onto the two children tightly!
"Brother, he found us!"

Seeing the galloping corpse-spotted beetle, Xu Jing was terrified, as if a piece of ice had been placed on her chest, it was bitingly cold, and her whole body trembled unconsciously.

"Damn!"

Xu Fa didn't turn his head, but stared at the corpse beetle in front of him. He tightened the stick in his hand. The stick was rough and strong, and it was stained with blood. As for the blisters on his hands, the blood flowed out after the blisters ruptured due to friction.
