The first wrench in the last days

Chapter 20 The rallying call that never sounded
"Dong dong, Xuanxuan, are you up yet?"

Mu Xuan knew it was Sikong Qing's voice when he heard it, and originally wanted Qianxue to hide, but thought that the other party would meet everyone sooner or later, so he opened the door.

"Why has it been so long, have you hidden a beautiful woman in the room?" Sikong Qing poked his head to look inside.

Mu Xuan somewhat regretted letting Sikong Qing in, so he pulled open the door, and at worst would be laughed at: "Let me introduce you."

Looking back, Qianxue turned into a cat, sitting on the bed sheet, licking its fur.

"I know, I'm here to look for it." Sikong Qing's eyes were blazing, and he stepped in directly, reaching out to hug the puppet cat, but this time he didn't refuse, and was directly hugged by Sikong Qing with both hands.

Mu Xuan saw this evil cat, stretching his paws into Sikong Qing's arms, making a gesture of stepping on the milk, Mu Xuan would not have thought about it on weekdays, but now that he knows that the other party is a human being, I was secretly angry, this guy would really take advantage of it.

After packing up in the morning and preparing to leave, Mu Xuan and Gongsun Tu carried two hiking bags and packed a lot of supplies. According to speculation, there must be a shortage of supplies due to unrest ahead.

In fact, there is no need to install so many. After all, a town is so big that it is impossible to have no supplies. The supplies taken away by the army and the crowd are limited.

It's very strange here. The closer you get to the center of the town, the more cluttered it becomes. Broken cars are parked haphazardly in the middle of the road, as if they are blocking something.

The corpses of monsters gradually increased, including rat people, monstrosities with a human head and a bull body, human bodies with the wings of a dragonfly, rotting corpses covered with white worms, huge plants with traces of bullets, A giant beetle with a severed head, a tall black and green praying mantis with a severed tail, and some steel mesh and obstacles covered a whole block.

The ground was blackened by the fire, and some corpses were too high, piled up several meters high.

In some places, there are big pits, which were produced by bomb explosions. It is conceivable that all monsters are killing wildly, and humans are desperately resisting. That kind of scene is a kind of cruelty and despair. Human beings were beaten down from the Lord of All Things. It must feel bad.

Going further, the corpses piled up in front of him formed a mountain. It was a wide avenue, and the roadblocks were covered under the corpses. After passing the mountain of corpses, most of the people lying on the ground were wearing military uniforms, and the bullet casings left on the ground were covered. Full of corpses.

They are the soldiers of the people, they charge forward, defend their homes and the country, when the war comes, there are no cowards, only a passion to face the irresistible pests.

Mu Xuan suddenly thought of the assembly call that he saw back then. If the assembly call was not sounded for a day, you would not be able to retreat for a day.

Who would want to die, if everyone retreats, no one will survive, and some people will need to sacrifice.

Thinking of the war at that time, thinking of the sacrificed human beings, who had relatives and friends, how miserable it was when they heard the bad news.

This is not the front line. The war on the front line can be imagined. No one has even mobilized troops to evacuate Free City. The front line is probably already covered in mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The dead army is like locusts passing through the grass, leaving no life at all.

Those dead corpses were somewhat swollen and bloated, and young worms crawled out of them, wriggling, making the corpses riddled with holes.

Mu Xuan suddenly understood what he really wanted to do. He didn't want to be the king here like others, rule the world, and become the ancestor of a generation. What he wanted to do was to return everything and restore the world to perfection. Erase what should exist.

Gongsun Tu's eyes were red, looking at the broken uniform lying on the ground, holding a half-burned photo tightly in one hand, picking up the photo, tears streaming down his face.

Sikong Qing unexpectedly did not hit him, and hugged the ragdoll cat tightly.

Gongsun Tu stretched out his hand to hold a ball of flames, spread it on the ground, and immediately saluted and shouted: "Gongsun Tu, the third squad of the Seventh Company of the Fourteenth Regiment, reports to the squad leader."

Mu Xuan looked at the big boy and didn't know how to comfort him. He didn't know much about Gongsun Tu.It's just that seeing him at the beginning was more appetizing. In fact, I only know his sister's name and appearance, and I don't know anything else.

Seeing him cry for the first time now, I was a little surprised, walked over, stood next to Gongsun Tu, and patted his shoulder.

Gongsun Tu's voice trembled, "I have been a soldier for several years. When I joined the 14rd squad of the 7th company of the [-]th regiment, the squad leader was very strict and had a terrible smile. It was very powerful back then, and all the mercenaries in the Federation ran away. I had a daughter who was only four years old. I saw that photo. The squad leader said that she would stay at home and spend more time with her daughter after she was discharged from the army. Today”

The memories of that year seem to reverberate in front of my eyes, bursts of laughter, training after training, who gave a hand when he couldn't hold on, and then were punished together, who was secretly punished by his teammates because the training was not completed and there was no food. Who sneaked into the canteen in search of food, and who resisted all the punishment for one mistake.

Mu Xuan couldn't think of the plot of the soldiers, because he had never experienced it before. He only knew that the soldiers are a united team, and everyone is like a hemp rope, tightly together.

However, the opponent intercepted some monsters here. It is conceivable that they were regarded as the vanguard, just like the rally call that was never sounded. From the moment they stayed, they were destined to stay forever.
