Bad woman, join the hunt tonight

"Kevin, something's not right." Su supported the trembling girl who was still covering her injured arm, and opened her eyes with caution. "There are similar noises upstairs and downstairs. The whole school should have experienced this situation... Although I don't know what happened, I think we'd better leave here now."

"……Um."

Kevin silently removed a leg from the desk and held it in his hand.

I seem to have heard of this kind of guy with grayish skin and a zombie-like appearance somewhere...

Yes, it is very similar to the monster called the Death Soldiers that Li once told him about. The organization that Li belongs to is against this kind of thing!

What happened? Did Li really have an accident? Should I go find her first? Even if I wanted to, I had no clue.

Shaking his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, Kevin decided to escort Su and the other survivors to a safe place before doing anything else.

With Li's strength, she would definitely be able to protect herself even if she was in danger, but the classmates around her did not have that kind of power.

Kevin casually threw the broken desks at the monsters that were attacking others, and then he began to calm down and protect the other students who had not turned into monsters to evacuate.

At this moment, he was a little glad that he had done the training. If he was the same person who was chased by monsters three months ago, would he be able to stay calm and save others now?

"Su, which way should we go?" Without looking back, Kevin asked the person he trusted most behind him. He believed that his best friend could always make the most correct judgment.

"This situation should be related to the purple lightning. Let's go in the direction away from it." Su frowned as he looked at the lightning that lingered in the distance. "There is a police station in the south of the school near the suburbs. It should be safer."

"Got it." Kevin clenched the table leg in his hand, "Follow me closely from now on."

Volume 162: Faith Extinguishes in Civilization: Chapter Chapter You Are the Challenger

The birth of the Herrscher is always accompanied by destruction.

Unlike the Herrscher who could be killed, the Fire Moths - or rather, all of humanity - were helpless against a disaster like the Honkai.

The instantly spreading Honkai energy pollution will cause a large number of people to be infected with Honkai. The mildest cases will suffer from Honkai disease and wait for death, while the severe ones will die suddenly on the spot or be twisted into zombie-like existences.

Tangible enemies can be killed, but these invisible disasters cannot be controlled because they often erupt at the first moment the Herrscher is born, leaving no time for humans to prepare.

"That's why I said the Herrscher should die..."

After cutting all the dead men and Honkai beasts on the road into pieces, Li showed no intention of slowing down her pace and rushed all the way to the center of the Honkai explosion. It was difficult for ordinary people to even catch a glimpse of her afterimage.

Originally, her plan was to go to Qianyu Academy to protect Su and Kevin after arranging the tasks for the team members, but things often don't go as Li wants. After calculating that the third collapse would occur this month, Li once asked the Fire Chaser to cancel all large gatherings in Changkong City within a month, but...

I don't know whether the Fire Moth didn't take Li's request seriously, or the Changkong City government didn't take the Fire Moth's warning seriously, but today there was a heavyweight large-scale celebration parade with nearly 10 people.

There are only 2000 people in Qianyu Academy, but there are 10 people here, and those big shots are also here... It goes without saying where Li will be asked to garrison.

Good news: The celebration venue is far away from the city center and is less affected.

After the Honkai erupted, Li easily cleared out all the dead soldiers and Honkai beasts, with a mortality rate of less than 50%, most of which were caused by trampling caused by the chaos. Although calling a 50% mortality rate good news is a bit of black humor, in past experience, once a Honkai occurs in a crowded place, the number of survivors can often only be counted in the single digits.

The bad news: This place is not only far away from the city center but also far away from Senba Academy.

If Li wants to protect Su and Kevin, he needs to cross the entire Changkong City. It would be better to kill the Herrscher of Thunder on the way. After all, although killing the Herrscher cannot make the collapse disappear, it can prevent it from further deteriorating rapidly.

So just like now, Li rushed to the entire Changkong City, which is the location of the largest source of collapse, at the fastest speed.

The only thing to be thankful for is that all of the Herrschers chosen by Honkai are chuunibyou, and they think highly of themselves and do not take humans seriously. Even the slippery Herrscher of the Void only learned guerrilla tactics after he was almost beaten to death by Lee's punch.

And this newly born Herrscher of Thunder obviously would not hide his aura like ants-like humans, which made Li's goal much clearer.

When Li arrived at the center of Changkong City, the surroundings had become a complete ruin, and high in the sky, a figure surrounded by purple thunder stood in the air.

"Hmph, human..." The Herrscher of Thunder opened his eyes and looked at Li below with contempt, "Are you the resistance sent by humans? How ridiculous, a mere ant dares to challenge the authority of God."

"Well, I'll let you feel what true despair is like - turning into atoms."

The Herrscher of Thunder waved his hand casually, and thunder containing destructive power shot out instantly, as if to turn Li into ashes.

Although he has only been in the world for a dozen minutes, the Herrscher of Thunder is confident that he can destroy the entire earth by himself.

There is only one reason for the failure of the Herrscher of Reason and the Herrscher of Void, that is, they are too weak!

But I am different. As a messenger of God, I have mastered the destructive power of thunder. Is there anything in this world that can stop me? !

Just one human's resistance, and I'll easily turn it into ashes!

Lightning struck, and a violent explosion seemed to have occurred around them, and everything was covered in smoke and dust. When the smoke dissipated, the enemy was gone, leaving only a deep pit on the ground.

Ha, tiny human beings, I’m afraid you’ve been broken down into just molecules!

Looking at the scene before him, the Herrscher of Thunder narrowed his eyes arrogantly. As expected, he was the strongest—

"I want to say that you seem to have made some very important mistakes."

Behind me?!

The sudden sound made the Herrscher of Thunder's hair stand on end. Without hesitation, he drove the thunder to chop backwards, barely blocking the knife light that came quietly. He only cut off a few strands of her hair, but did not behead her.

When the strike failed, Li did not look disappointed. He just smiled and pointed the tip of his knife at the Herrscher of Thunder's head: "Herscher, you are the one who is challenging me."

“——How shameless!”

Li's words seemed to have touched the bottom line of the Herrscher of Thunder. The Herrscher of Thunder, who had been somewhat cautious just now, was now dominated by anger. Her eyes flashed, and countless thunders filled the entire space in an instant, intending to turn Li completely into charcoal!

"You're just a human being, go and die!"

Facing the thunderbolts that filled the sky, Li just smiled and said, "No, I promised someone to bring your core back to her."

"And if you want to kill me, you're not qualified enough~"

-

The explosions coming from the city center have stopped for some time, making the victims who were unaware of the situation feel a little better.

Kevin and Su were finally able to settle down temporarily, not because they arrived at the Jing Police Station as originally planned, but because they met the Fire Moth rescue team.

"Students nowadays are really amazing. Not only were they able to escape on their own, but they were also able to save so many classmates."

In the temporary camp, Hen looked at the gloomy student in front of him with a calm expression, "Would you consider joining the Fire Moth? We need talents like you."

"I do want to join..." Kevin, who was standing behind Hen, said hesitantly, "But I, I want to ask, is there a girl named Li in your organization..."

"Li?" Hearing this name, Hen laughed out loud, turned around and looked at Kevin jokingly, "Guess why we split a team to look for survivors in the direction of your academy?"

“Could it be that—” Kevin’s eyes lit up, “Is she okay?!”

"What can happen to her?" Hen shook his head and said helplessly, "Even if all of us here die, she will be fine. You can think of her as someone who went to deal with the culprit of this incident. It's because she can't be away that she specifically asked me to protect you."

"Kevin and.....Su from Chiba Academy, right?"

"Um...Also, can I ask how Su is doing?" Kevin's expression, which had just relaxed a little, became tense again when Su was mentioned. "It's all my fault that I didn't pay attention, so he--"

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Hen interrupted Kevin, "But the wounded and the others have to be evacuated separately, so he can't go with you... You should be able to see him in the shelter by then."

Volume 164: Faith Extinguishes in Civilization: Chapter Is Chapter going to be sent?

There were many people in the temporary camp, and the members from the Fire Moth were busy resettling the victims and leading them to relocate. Although Li had gone to defeat the Herrscher of Thunder, and everyone had confidence in her, after this collapse, Changkong City was no longer suitable for ordinary humans to live in.

The ubiquitous high concentration of Honkai energy will corrode the human body. Unless one is a person like Li who has an extremely high resistance to Honkai energy, even if one can persist in this environment for a period of time, if one does not leave in time, sooner or later he will end up becoming a dead soldier or die on the spot.

Fire Moth will transfer these people to its own shelter and temporarily provide them with basic living security.

According to the previous policy of Fire Moth, the victims affected by the collapse disaster will sign a confidentiality agreement and leave after a short observation in the shelter. If there are people with high quality and intention to join Fire Moth, they will be absorbed as members of the organization.

But now the situation...

Looking at the densely populated camp and the survivors who were still being sent in in an endless stream, Hen couldn't help but wonder whether the Fire Moth shelter could accommodate so many people.

Although the First and Second Herrschers brought considerable losses to humanity, they were born far away from densely populated urban areas, so the accompanying collapse did not have such a big impact. The Third Herrscher appeared directly in the center of a city with millions of people, causing the entire city to instantly turn into purgatory.

The Fire Moths had never encountered such a situation before, and Hen doubted whether they could accept so many people at once.

"Just leave with this group." Hen looked at Kevin behind him and pointed to the convoy approaching not far away. "You don't have to worry about other things - ah, and this."

As if thinking of something, Hen found a piece of paper and wrote down his number and handed it to Kevin: "This is my contact information, you can find me if you have any problems - provided that I am not dead, hahahaha!"

Patting Kevin on the shoulder cheerfully, Hen said with a smile: "You are able to escape with so many classmates. I think you are a good candidate. I will see if I can recruit you to our team when the time comes!"

Although the blue-haired uncle in front of him looked quite enthusiastic, Kevin was a little bit insistent: "Um, should we ask which team Li is from?"

"......Oh, I understand~" Hen narrowed his eyes slightly. After all, he was a father, and Kevin's little thoughts could not be hidden from him at all - although the other party was not prepared to hide it at all.

"There's something wrong with the way you ask it. You should ask which team is hers - but what a coincidence, our team happens to be hers."

Kevin wanted to ask something else, but the transport vehicle had already arrived, and Hen just patted him and told him to leave.

"See you at the interview venue of Fire Moth, kid."

In the crowded crowd, Kevin got on a vehicle heading far away from Changkong City, and watched Changkong City, which looked like a scene from a doomsday movie, gradually being left behind.

"Our hero is really charismatic." Looking at the car going away, Hen smiled helplessly, "Luckily I have a wife, otherwise I would have to run after them all day like these young people."

"However, in this case, her mission is half completed..."

Thinking of what Li had asked him to do before, Hen couldn't help but frown and rubbed his eyes in distress: "There's nothing I can do about the other one..."

"Team leader, the personnel have been checked." At this moment, a member of the Fire Moth ran to Hen's side, "All the infected personnel have been isolated. There are a lot of people, and some are turning into dead soldiers... What should we do next?"

"......" Hen was silent. According to previous practices, those with mild symptoms should be isolated for observation. Some of them can survive the infection. But that can only be done when there are sufficient manpower, and now......

Looking at the orders coming from the communicator, Hen could only sigh: "Prioritize the transfer of normal people. Tell these infected people to wait in line. Don't let them enter the evacuation area. If they want to leave, let them leave."

Simply put, they were tricked into staying here and fending for themselves, and the reason they were not driven away directly was simply because we didn't want them to riot out of despair.

The most important thing now is to protect those who are sure to survive, not those who have a slight chance of survival. No matter what Hen thinks of this order, all he can do is to execute it.

...No, maybe there's one more thing.

Thinking of this, Hen quickly came to his tent, and it was Su who was sitting inside. But now he had a painful expression, and his entire right hand was covered with purple lines, some of which had even spread to his neck.

"how do you feel?"

"That's terrible..." Sue forced a smile, "Is this a zombie virus?"

"No, but you can think of it that way." Hen sighed, "If you don't feel better, then there's probably no chance."

Having been eroded to this extent, it means that the body can no longer successfully resist collapse on its own, and that tiny chance of survival no longer exists for Su.

The reason for this was simple. The girl who was bitten by the assassin and was protected by Su also became an assassin halfway through the journey and attacked Su who was closest to her. The incident happened suddenly and no one expected this to happen. Kevin, who was standing in front of them, was unable to stop it.

Although he was lucky enough to meet the search and rescue team led by Hen soon, Su was also infected with Honkai.

"...This may be fate." Su's eyes paused for a moment, and then he said with relief, "How is Kevin?"

"I've just gotten on the bus." Hen hesitated, "Now all the infected people in the camp have to be concentrated and quarantined, and you are no exception... But I can tell you that if you go there, you will basically die."

A large number of people gathered together, once someone turned into a dead soldier, the scene would definitely become extremely tragic in an instant. Moreover, these people were basically candidates for dead soldiers, and in the worst case, the Fire Moth might need to do the "cleaning" himself.

"If you still want to try, you can return to Changkong City. If you don't survive the infection, you still have a chance of survival."

"...I understand." Su stood up with difficulty and thanked Hen. The other party had tried his best to help him, but Hen seemed to have no way to deal with the current situation. "I seem to want to struggle a little more."

Looking at Su limping towards the door, Hen silently put a pistol into his pocket: "There is only one bullet."

"Thank you." Su's smile was a little bitter.

At least, can I die with dignity in the end?

Volume 165: Faith Extinguishes in Civilization: Chapter Chapter I Think I Can Do It

......

How long has it been?

Sue didn't know.

He was now just slumped in the corner of an alley, staring blankly at a small patch of sky above his head.

The nasty weather, everything looked gray... Maybe it was his own problem? After all, no matter what he looked at now, it seemed to be fading.

After coming out of the Fire Moth's camp, Su found an empty alley in the nearby suburbs and sat there waiting for the judgment to come.

The reason for choosing this place is that it is difficult to enter this dark corner even if you are looking for it specifically, so even if you turn into a monster, you will not hurt others - but it seems that not everyone can turn into those monsters, and many people died directly.

Die...

Su used to think that he could face death calmly, and even if he had to die, he could still face it calmly. But when death really came, he found that he really didn't want to die.

That's why, even after Hen told him that there was no hope, he insisted on returning to the city to continue suffering.

Don't the protagonists in those stories always turn danger into safety when their lives are hanging by a thread? Maybe I can do the same? With this hope, Su Cai has persisted until now.

But, it still didn't work. Su could feel that his body was gradually losing control, his vision was slowly becoming blurry, and even his thinking was becoming slower and slower. Looking at his already twisted fingers, even without a mirror, Su could imagine how ugly he was now.
