Chapter 177: Don't put hope on me

Even the spread of light is obstructed in places full of underworld. Whether it's electric lights or candles, the lights that can illuminate the hall will eventually be like the dim light of a firefly.
People have been tolerating the inexhaustible darkness for three days. The relic of Fusang brought by Lu Xuanzhi is the only light they can see that can dispel the darkness.
Lu Xuanjia seemed to feel their trust and hope in himself and his fellow teammates from those desperate eyes, hoping to save them by himself.
This street seems to carry a heavy burden every one meter forward, and the number of such streets in Long Country may be hundreds of millions.
Don't put hope on me!
Really, don't put hope on me!
I can't afford it, I don't want to, I can't do it!
Lu Xuanzhi was very entangled and resisted in his heart. He thought he could see others suffer and be indifferent.
After all, what are they doing when they are suffering?
No one, no one to help yourself!
When standing in Zhou Fugui's office, facing a capable person with the body of an ordinary person, protesting his bad deeds, none of his former "friends" dared to support him.
There is no capable person who sympathizes with oneself and helps oneself.
Therefore, even if Lu Xuanjia destroyed the Sky City in a rage and killed many capable people, he never regretted it.
I even feel that no one in this world can touch my sympathy and compassion.
But at this time, he suddenly knew that this was not sympathy and pity.
It is the piety and begging that cannot be rejected, and it is impossible to let the common hope of so many people fail.
Perhaps, at that time, he had a similar feeling, and he would voluntarily walk into the Kunlun Snow Region where no one can come back safely.
"Who are you? What is that...?" At this moment, a surprised but voice interrupted Lu Xuanjia's thoughts.
Looking up, a small group came up in the darkness and fog. Because it was getting closer, they found that this small group also had a dozen people.
Looking at its equipment, it should be the city's security guard.
Among them, the leader looks like a person, staring intently at the potted plant in Lu Xuanjia's hand, with an incredible light in his eyes.
At that moment, seeing this golden light, Zhou Yawen, who had been extremely tired and depressed these days, seemed to see hope, and his mental fatigue was wiped out.
It turns out that there is actually a light that dispels darkness in this world, and they still have hope!
"I'm Li Qingkong, we went to the Emperor Island to participate in the summit of the capable people, but because of the drastic changes in the middle, we had to come back early. You should be a member of the security guard of this coastal city?"
"Can you tell us whether the traffic line is still operating normally and how is the domestic situation these days?" Seeing the official, Li Qingkong immediately identified himself and asked.
"Li Qingkong?" Zhou Yawen trembled. This is a big man. If you read the international news, you will hear his reputation.
"You... are you Li Qingkong?"
"Why is it different from what you saw on TV?" Zhou Yawen muttered in disbelief.
In these days since the accident happened, the country has been trying to contact them.
After all, it was almost 90% of the top powerhouses of the entire Dragon Kingdom who went to the summit of the capable people.
If they lose them, the Dragon Kingdom can be said to have returned to the pre-liberation period in terms of capable people.
But there was no contact. In this small city of Binhai City, Zhou Yawen, a security guard squad leader, encountered a lost connection on a mission. He couldn't believe it.
"Let's take a closer look?" Li Qingkong stroked his beard a little awkwardly. The past few days have experienced drastic changes, and then drifted on the sea. There is indeed no way to take care of his image, which is similar to the glorious appearance on TV in the past. He does make a difference.
Zhou Yawen looked at it carefully after hearing the words, and the more it looked, the more it looked like it.
"Captain, I know the person next to him, that is Dean Wu of the Academia Sinica! They are really the ones who went to the summit of capable people, they are back!"
"President Wu, you can count as coming back! Don't you know, the people of the whole country are waiting for your news and are praying for you to go home!"
"Since you are back, we must be able to overcome this difficulty!" At this time, a young man next to Zhou Yawen said vowedly.
In the radio news of the past few days, there are indeed often messages of prayers for the capable persons participating in the summit of capable persons. The young man is an avid fan of Wu Baichang and recognized him at a glance.
Don't ask why it is broadcast news, because of the influence of light on light, video equipment such as TVs are no longer usable.
Zhou Yawen saw where he dared to question, and quickly explained: "Every... Seniors, I am not questioning you, I just can't believe it."
"I'll tell our team leader the news. You must be rushing back to Tianjing to preside over the overall situation, right?"
"The traffic in Binhai City was actually closed on the day of the change, but the captain should be able to find a way for you." Zhou Yawen hurriedly took out a contact device and said.
"Don't worry, we go back one hour early and one hour late, it might not make much difference." Wu Baichang smiled bitterly.
The encounters on Emperor Island made him understand that even those ninth-tier semi-powerfuls, faced with this shady world, where undead creatures frequently appeared, did not have much ability to change.
But you can't just give up if you stop living because of this!
As long as you don't die, this life has to continue, and you have to continue thinking about ways.
"By the way, are you... patrolling?" Wu Baichang asked after turning off the topic in order to relieve Zhou Yawen's nervousness.
Zhou Yawen smiled bitterly, if normal patrols could be arranged, then that would be fine.
"We...receive the corpse!" Zhou Yawen replied, looking at the corpse Lu Xuanzhi and the others were about to pass by.
If it hadn't been for them to collect the corpses, there would have been three corpses on this street, five steps in a pile.
There are too many people who cannot bear this hopeless despair of the future and commit suicide.
The manpower of the security guard is not enough, even if the body is collected, there is no extra energy to patrol and maintain city safety.
Simultaneously with the darkness, there are some undead creatures, occasionally appearing in the city to cause destruction.
That was originally the task of the security guard, but now they have no ability to manage it. Basically, several major forces in the local city have joined forces to form a defense team to fight against it.
If it is a larger city, the official army will help.
