Chapter 680 - Yuan Xiaoyi (1/2)

The weather was getting colder and colder, and the air seemed to be frozen into ice. Even if you were wearing a thick padded jacket or down jacket, you could still feel the pervasive cold air getting into the clothes. The body was cold, but the bones were even colder, and the refugees’ upper and lower teeth were constantly clicking each other making the black symphony.

Yuan Xiaoyi and many people huddled together, sitting in front of the window of the refugee building with knees bent. She was leaning on the side of her cla.s.smates, pulling the placket tightly to prevent cold wind from entering her body and freezing herself into a cold dead body.

She never had time to cross the river. Even if she crossed the river, she didn’t know who to look for. In the chaos, she and her cla.s.smates found a commercial building crowded with refugees. She temporarily settled down and endured the hunger to this day. But she still couldn’t find one job that could receive food rations, more and more cla.s.smates were beginning to swell to a scary extent as if they may die at any time.

The sound of cannons outside the window has been ringing for a day and a night, and there was no sign of stopping at all. Instead, it was getting closer and closer. She could even smell the smoke in the air.

There were more and more dead people, and more and more refugees were pouring into the center of the city. No one could care less about the corpses that had fallen on the street. Only when someone tripped on them occasionally, would people hear some sighs.

She did not know why the soldiers from the same army began to kill each other. The world has already become like this. Human beings were forced to be like stray dogs, and there were scary creatures that cannibalize people everywhere, and the environment has become so harsh that it could not possibly get any worse, but why couldn’t everyone unite to deal with the monsters and resist the icy doom!?

She was very angry, and wanted to point to the noses of the two parties in power that started this civil war, scold them severely, and ask if they were still human? And if they still had any humanity in them?

Instead of killing cruel creatures that eat humans, they were fighting each other, killing their own soldiers, harming their compatriots and refugees, and smas.h.i.+ng cannonb.a.l.l.s on their own people like slaughtering animals.

She couldn’t figure it out, didn’t they think that humans were not miserable enough? Did they think that the number of humans was not decreasing fast enough?

Why must it be like this? Why did they want to turn the last refuge into a cannibalistic purgatory?

Was it for the sinful desire for power, or it was really just because that person was a devil?

Yuan Xiaoyi didn’t believe it, because she personally saw that that man saved many people with his sword from many floating monsters and brought them out of that terrifying city while he was covered in blood.

That person was neither cruel nor evil, he even treated ordinary people better than those people who had a superpower, how could he be a devil? What kind of devil would not kill ordinary people but save them? If a devil was really like this, she would support the devil without hesitation.

And those who called the person the Devil, in order to kill him, it was said that they even used nuclear bombs. Although they didn’t admit it, many people said they did. Then, who was the real devil?

This was what she thought in the beginning, and she firmly believed what she thought was right. But since yesterday, she was confused again.

That person started an internal war first, and the roar of artillery sh.e.l.ls made this last city tremble and bleed!

Looking out the window, and when she was thinking it like this, she saw a stray sh.e.l.l emitting the bright light heading toward them.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the top floor of the commercial building was cut in half, and the ceiling and floor were shaken by violent vibrations, and large cracks began to spread like earthworms.

“Run! The building is going to collapse!”

Someone yelled, and everyone woke up from the scream. Dragging the hungry companion, holding the crying child, everyone flocked to the stairs in a panic. Because there were too many people and they were running in a hurry, many people were tripped over and rolled down the stairs. The cries of being trampled on were mixed with the sound of gunfire outside appearing non-stop in the building. With the light of the torch swaying on the ceiling, Yuan Xiaoyi felt that the real end of the world was coming!
