Doomsday Sacrifice

Chapter 6 Countdown to Zero

The sky was getting late, and the night covered the boundless sea, and the night sky over the ocean was full of stars, which was exceptionally brilliant.

Li Xun stared at the starry sky in ecstasy, and remained silent. The end was getting closer and closer. I don't know how many people can still see such a beautiful starry sky.

As soon as the operation was over, Li Xun found a satellite phone and called his family. His hometown is Zhoucheng, a third-tier city in Donghai Province. His parents opened a bookstore next to the school near the community, and they lived a decent life.

Because the system was too bizarre, Li Xun lied, saying that a friend of his at the CDC had revealed to him that a terrible unknown virus had recently been found spreading quietly in animals, which would cause animals to develop Mutated, infected animals will become bloodthirsty and terrifying like aliens, and feed on humans. Let them quickly stock up on food and water, as much as possible. From tomorrow onwards, they will close the shop and hide at home and do not go out. Let's see the situation.

My parents didn't take it too seriously at first, they only agreed to go shopping early in the morning to prepare more things, but they didn't think it was necessary to hide at home. His father said that there should be news on the Internet if there is such a thing, and the information is so developed these days , nothing can be hidden.

But in the end, under Li Xun's strong persuasion, he agreed to stay at home for the next two days and not go out, so it was considered a two-day rest.

Li Xunqian exhorted Wan Wan, and finally managed to get through the work. After hanging up the phone, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. You can't blame them for this matter. The excuse of the virus is finally a bit of a plausible one. He also watched alien movies. After a while, I still know a little bit.

If this means that there will be monsters coming to Blue Star tomorrow, the end will come. I am afraid that not everyone will think that Li Xun is a lunatic. If there is no system, Li Xun himself would not believe such a thing.

Therefore, he didn't tell the crew that when the doomsday comes, let's all live in peace, and don't care about so much, maybe staying on the ship has a better chance of surviving, at least there is food, drink and no hunger.

When the doomsday was mentioned before, Li Xun would subconsciously think about viruses, zombies and bugs. In fact, he had watched too many movies and novels during the idle days on the boat, and it had become a conditioned mind.

But since he gained proficiency in hunting, that terrifying four-faced monster appeared in his mind more and more times, and his pressure was also increasing.

Stress comes from fear of doomsday, imagination of the unknown and confusion about the future.

"Li, why do you have to go home now?" First officer Vasuta interrupted Li Xun's chaotic thoughts. He lay on the stretcher and wanted to turn over, but grinned in pain because of the wound.

"It's nothing, I just want to go home suddenly."

"Well, I understand, sometimes I will suddenly have this kind of thought, especially after floating at sea for several months, this time I really thank you."

"It's nothing."

"Li, I agree with the captain's evaluation of you. You are an admirable person, both in ability and character. It's a pity that we couldn't buy you a drink tonight. Is your injury really okay?"

"fine."

"Will we meet again?"

"Will do."

Li Xun was silent for a while, and then replied leisurely, he sincerely hoped that they could meet again.

More than three hours later, the helicopter landed at a hospital in Del. Li Xun patted the first officer on the shoulder, waved his hand and left alone.

He hailed a taxi and went straight to the airport, bought a ticket to New Zealand within the latest time, arrived in New Zealand in the middle of the night, and found a five-star hotel at the airport to make do for the night.

Li Xun has been floating on the sea for three years and has saved 26 yuan. If he doesn't spend it, he will lose his chance.

The next morning, Li Xun got on the flight to Xiangjiang. As soon as he landed, Li Xun took a look at the countdown. It was 5 hours and 40 minutes before the end of the day. It was now 11:51 am, the capital time. Obviously, the countdown was based on the capital time. Yes, this made him breathe a sigh of relief. There is a time difference of two and a half hours between Xizhu and China. If it is calculated according to New Zealand time, there is not much time.

I checked the flight first, and the only flight to China is the flight to Shanghai after 2:17 p.m., and the arrival time is 30:[-], which means that Li Xun and Doomsday arrived almost at the same time.

There is another route to return to the country, which is to directly cross the border to Shencheng. There are many flights from Shencheng to Donghai Province, but the time for crossing the border is too uncertain, so Li Xun finally decided to fly to Shanghai.

It is impossible to rush home before the end of the day, but fortunately, I will definitely be able to return to China. The magic capital is still more than 800 kilometers away from Zhoucheng. It takes more than 2 hours, and it takes only 4 hours to drive, but the premise is under normal circumstances.

Li Xun dare not imagine the end of the world.

After buying the plane ticket, he ate something casually. He first searched the Internet for what to prepare before the end of the day, and found a bunch of information, all of which were similar in content. Li Xun pondered for a long time, and finally decided on the next plan. Make a list of things in order to prevent forgetting, and start preparing immediately.

First I found a store and bought a backpack, and then I bought some food at a store called Wanning, mainly chocolates. Li Xun directly emptied the shelves of chocolates. I wanted to buy some medicines, but the variety in the store was too large. At least, they are all Radix Banlangen, cold granules and antipyretic patches. There are no antibiotics, so I have to buy some vitamins.

There are many restrictions on flying, you can’t bring this, you can’t bring that, there is also a weight limit for carry-on luggage, and there are many things that can only be figured out after the magic city.

Then he placed an order on his mobile phone and rented a big G, and the pick-up location was at T1 Terminal of Shanghai Second International Airport, hoping to use it.

After finishing everything that could be prepared, Li Xun called his family. His father said that they went out to do some shopping in the morning. They bought a bunch of things and returned home. They would not die of hunger if they stayed at home for a year. They also prepared two watermelon knives. The monster came. He was not afraid, listening to their joke-like laughter, Li Xun could only smile wryly.

The sad thing is that the system has been silent since the last time the information about the doomsday was revealed, and no matter what Li Xun asked, he ignored it, as if the customer service was offline, preventing him from getting more information.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Xun started to board the plane. In order to bring more things, he bought a business class ticket, enjoyed a VIP treatment, and took the fast lane.

This flight was very good. The plane took off on time. Li Xun set an alarm clock to lie down and go to sleep. He was very nervous these two days, and he didn’t have a good rest. He only slept for four or five hours last night. Let’s take advantage of this time to catch up on sleep and recover energy.

When the incident came to an end, he was not so anxious, and soon fell asleep. In his dream, he saw countless four-shaped monsters falling from mid-air like dumplings. They bared their fangs and waved their sharp claws, attacking wildly. Human beings on the ground are like purgatory on earth.

Seen from the sky, the blue star is like an apple occupied by mold, which quickly turns black and rots at a speed visible to the naked eye, and is finally eaten away.

Li Xun's plane was also broken into by two monsters, and everyone on the plane was killed, leaving him alone. Finally, the two monsters opened their bloody mouths and bit him at the same time...

Waking up from the nightmare, Li Xun broke out in a cold sweat. The scene in the dream was vivid in his mind, as if it were reality. He only felt dry mouth for a while.

Li Xun took the second cup of coffee from the stewardess and asked, "Is the plane arriving on time?"

"Yes, sir, this flight arrives on time at 17:30." The young and beautiful stewardess smiled nicely, showing good professionalism, "Sir, I think your complexion is not very good, are you feeling unwell?"

"It's okay, I had a nightmare." Li Xun replied murmuringly, then suddenly looked up into her eyes and said seriously: "Good luck!"

The young stewardess was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you! Good luck to you too!"

At 17:30, the plane landed at the Second International Airport on time and began taxiing on the runway. Looking through the porthole at the busy and bustling airport, in the background of the bustling metropolis, at the moment of alternating light and darkness, Li Xun's eyes were bright red The countdown gradually reset to zero.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1,

0...
