Doomsday Savior (11): I’m so jealous of that Chinese guy!
The news that the motherland was sending people to rescue compatriots who could not return home quickly spread across the country. Ordinary people were curious about what the foreign countries were like at this moment, as the Internet was completely cut off not long after the doomsday.
“They are not much different from us, right? After all, they still have guns.”
“I have a friend who is studying abroad. I haven’t been able to contact him since the apocalypse. I’m so worried about him…”
“Don’t be afraid. The end of the world is not a big deal. Just stay at home and everything will be fine.”
“That’s right.”
People were chatting and laughing in front of the TV, waiting for the soldiers who had gone abroad to send back the video of the first day of arriving on the other side of the ocean, and then broadcast it on TV.
then……
Then they saw a mosaic that filled the entire screen.
The long-awaited audience: “…………”
Although they couldn’t see the detailed images, they could still indirectly guess through the mosaics and the sounds that the humanoid monsters that were rushing over were all zombies. The roar of the zombies was so loud that it hurt their ears, and the soldiers in the camera were always running.
The Chinese people who thought they could see a peaceful exchange were stunned for a moment.
There was communication, and it was very enthusiastic, but this enthusiasm was too hard to accept, the kind that could threaten one’s life.
“Oh my god, has everything overseas become like this?”
“I’ve never seen so many zombies even on the day of the apocalypse…”
“Are there any living people there?”
“Oh my god, I’m lucky I live in China.”
“Luckily I live in China +1”
The spectators were worried for the soldiers as they watched them bravely and fearlessly charge into a building filled with zombies.
Looking at the terrifying and irrational zombies in the camera rushing towards the soldiers desperately, they did not even fire their guns. They relied entirely on their speed and eyesight to solve seemingly desperate situations time and time again, and passed one level after another without any harm.
The audience was trembling with fear and nervousness, but at the same time, they couldn’t help but shout in excitement in front of the screen, with no place to vent their passion.
“So handsome!”
“The cutest person!”
“I actually got excited watching a group of people hiding from zombies… It’s too exciting!”
After leaving the airport, the team split into two teams, one team went to the farm where the zombie cow was, and the other team went to handle another mission.
Since all the roads were blocked, the soldiers could not use vehicles to move forward. This journey was destined to be full of dangers.
The first thing that Chinese people who had nothing to do at home did when they woke up every day was to turn on the TV to watch the latest videos, which was countless times more exciting than watching TV series.
Today’s video content was a little different. The rescue team finally arrived in the city center from the airport through the suburbs. The density of the people here, no, the density of the zombies, was simply nightmare-level.
The soldiers, who should have acted more low-key, did not sneak through the buildings as quietly as before, but sneaked into a basement and whispered to the empty and silent place: “We are the Chinese rescue team, coming to take you home.”
Suddenly, a cry was heard from a place that seemed to be completely silent. A topless, disheveled, and covered in wounds woman emerged from an inconspicuous corner and threw herself at the nearest soldier, howling uncontrollably: “Wuwu, Wuwuwu… You, you are here…”
The wailing voice was filled with sorrow, as if the sky had fallen down, tearing the heart apart and causing pain.
“I…I…” The woman was so emotional that her whole body was shaking. Tears flowed uncontrollably and she said in a breakdown: “They are not human…They are more evil than zombies…”
The soldier covered the woman with a blanket and said comfortingly, “It’s all over.”
“Thank you, thank you…” The woman tried to kneel on the ground and kowtow. She couldn’t even think of how she could express her gratitude. Or rather, in order to stay alive, she had done many things that were far more dignified than kowtowing to others. However, she was quickly stopped by the soldiers.
“This is what we should do.” The soldier said hastily. As more and more zombies were attracted by the woman’s crying, they quickly protected the woman in the middle and began to break out.
The woman’s pupils shrank to the extreme with fear, and she covered her mouth tightly with tears falling silently.
“sorry……”
Because Si Qi said that zombies might be able to turn back into humans one day, the soldiers tried their best not to kill them, but to remove the zombies’ ability to move.
The commotion attracted the few living people nearby. They saw a group of foreigners in uniforms appear and shouted: “Hey! Help me! I’m here!”
Before the soldiers could answer, the woman stopped them: “No! He just wants to take your weapons! Don’t trust anyone here!”
She shouted to the men above: “If you want to join us, first hand over your weapons!”
“Fuck!” The man cursed, picked up the weapon hidden behind him, fired several shots at the team here, and then kept throwing things at this side from the upstairs to make noises, attracting more zombies to catch them.
“Damn you!” the man cursed and raised his middle finger, “Go to hell, all of you!”
The woman said angrily, “They are all like this! They are a bunch of barbaric guys!”
The soldiers could only silently give up the idea of rescuing people and take the woman away from the growing horde of zombies.
They kept going forward, rescuing the Chinese citizens trapped here. Almost all the Chinese rushed out in relief when they heard the name of their motherland, crying.
Only one person wanted to come out, but he was stopped by the people around him.
“What do you want to do?”
“These guys are trying to trick you into opening the door and steal our food! You damn idiot!”
“You still believe that the soldiers will save us. I really need to pry open your head and see if it’s filled with tofu!”
The Chinese looked at the group of tall and strong guys in front of him and said in fear: “But, but that’s our country…”
“Pah! Who do you think you are that someone would travel thousands of miles to a foreign country to rescue you?”
“Even a country as powerful as ours has fallen. A developing country like yours that has nothing to offer except its large population will definitely be the first to be destroyed!”
“You follow my instructions, lure those people in, and take away their food and weapons! Do you understand me?”
“Wuwuwu…” The Chinese youth was pushed around by a group of people, and he firmly refused to collude with others to harm his compatriots. This attitude made people angry, and the group of people who had already lost their bottom line because of the doomsday immediately attacked him, kicked him to the ground, beat him severely, and threatened him while beating him. But even though the young man was in so much pain that tears came out, he still gritted his teeth and refused to agree.
At this moment, there was a loud bang.
The iron shutter door was violently opened, and a group of warriors rushed in, using their ice ability to control the movements of the guys who subconsciously wanted to shoot.
The ice would not harm their bodies, but it could make them unable to move.
A soldier carefully lifted up the young man who was crying and said to him, “We are here to take you home.”
Take you home.
After hearing these words, the young man, who had been in hell for more than half a month and lived in nightmares every day, could no longer hold back his tears. He burst into tears and kept saying, “Take me away, take me away…”
The soldiers rushed forward to bandage the young man’s wounds, handed him a blanket, and brought him food and water. The way they took care of him was so thoughtful that anyone could see how caring they were.
This made a group of foreigners who were maintaining a fierce fighting posture very jealous. They said, “Is this guy some kind of noble? Why did you come to a foreign country to save him?”
The young man also looked at the soldier with a confused look on his face, finding it a little unbelievable.
The soldier said calmly: “He is our compatriot, with the same blood as ours. When the motherland comes to take the child home, does it still need to consider the child’s status?”
The soldier’s tone was so matter-of-fact that it shocked several foreigners present who had long lost faith in this world.
The young man cried and said, “Thank you, thank you… I am not worth the risk you are taking… How is the situation in the country now? Is everyone okay?”
“Don’t worry, the country is very stable, and there is not a single zombie on the streets.” The soldier said apologetically, “If the country had not been stable, we probably wouldn’t have had the energy to come out and pick you up. I’m sorry that you have been wronged for so many days…”
“No, no, I’m glad everyone is okay…” The young man was crying and laughing, and his genuine reaction made many Chinese people who are living safely and enjoying a peaceful life in the country cry.
For the first time, they officially realized that their happiness at the moment was supported by countless people who worked silently behind the scenes. Without the efforts of these contributors, perhaps they would now be just an ugly zombie, or living a hopeless and helpless life like those people in the video.
“No! That’s impossible! You’re lying!”
A strong foreigner could not accept such a huge gap and shouted angrily: “Liar! Liar! What qualifications does China have to be better than us! On what basis can you be safe and sound without any trouble? On what basis!”
The young man angrily said: “Shut up! You can insult me, but you can’t insult my country!”
The soldier said coldly: “Because we are Chinese! Do we need any more reasons?”
The foreigner stared at him, trying to find a reason to refute him, but the young man did not give him a chance to speak and asked eagerly, “What happened in the days leading up to the end of the world?”
Facing his compatriots, the warrior’s tone was much gentler. “In the first ten minutes of the doomsday, we issued a national order requiring everyone to stay in safe rooms and not leave.”
The young man exclaimed, “Ah!” He had heard this order the day after the apocalypse, but no one at the scene obeyed the order and treated it as bullshit. He asked nervously, “Will this work?”
The soldier asked in confusion, “Of course it works. Everyone stays in the room and keeps a distance from the zombies. As long as you don’t get scratched and infected, no more zombies will appear. This is a very simple principle, even a child can do it.”
The young man hesitated and said, “That’s what they said…but why did everyone do it?”
The soldier was even more puzzled: “Why not do it? Will the country harm us? If it were you, would you obey orders?”
The foreigners on the side subconsciously showed contempt and muttered something about freedom. The young man thought seriously for a moment, nodded and said, “I will.”
The soldier smiled, “Yes, so we stopped the secondary infection of the zombie virus on the first day, and on the second day we took all the zombies to a place far away from the crowd. On the third day we had the situation under control.”
The young man was stunned, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face, and he said excitedly: “Cool! So cool! Unbelievable!”
The foreigner next to him had a wonderful expression on his face, but he was holding his breath and said angrily, “This is impossible! You are lying!”
The young man raised his eyebrows and snorted, “Believe it or not! Do you think I still care about your opinion after all this?!”
The audience laughed: “Yeah, he’s so angry over there, and we’re here watching the live broadcast with the air conditioner on, they don’t know how cool it is~~”
The soldier knew what the rescued person wanted to do most, so he handed the young man a mobile phone and said, “We brought mobile communication equipment. You can call your family to let them know you are safe.”
“Really?” Although the young man believed the soldier’s words, he was still worried that his family would turn into zombies when the mutation broke out the day before, so he quickly took the phone and sent a video call.
The video was quickly connected, and the moment the screen lit up, the eyes of people on both sides instantly turned red.
“Son!!!”
“Mom!” the young man choked up and asked, “Are you all right?”
“Good, very good. How are you doing over there, son? I saw that your place is in a mess, with zombies everywhere. Your father and I have been worried about you for the past few days and haven’t been able to sleep well…” The woman cried until her eyes were blurry. She kept wiping her tears, fearing that she couldn’t see her son’s appearance because of the tears: “You’ve lost weight. How come you’re so thin? Have you not eaten?”
The young man wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, and choked up and said, “Where can I find food here?”
“Hey! I told you the food there isn’t tasty, but you couldn’t eat it! You’re still being picky at this time, kid…” The mother muttered with red eyes. In fact, she didn’t know what she said. She just subconsciously cared about him in her own way.
The young man said with a mixture of laughter and tears: “It’s not a question of whether I can eat or not… Forget it, I just know that you are okay…”
“Nothing, of course nothing. I’m bored every day so I play cards with your dad, watch TV, play with my phone, etc…”
The young man said enviously: “I would not have gone abroad if I had known… It would be so much better to stay in the country…”
“That’s right!” the mother said quickly, “Come back quickly, son. I’ll make you a delicious meal when you come back…”
“Yeah!” The young man choked and nodded vigorously.
As he was talking, the foreign youths watching on the side were already stunned. They looked at the bright light bulbs, the unimpeded network facilities, and the TV programs being broadcast. Everything was the same as before, as if nothing had changed.
It turned out… what those Chinese people said was true…
The soldiers left with the sobbing young man. Before leaving, they helped the group behind them to untie the ice and seal the broken door.
Faintly, they could hear a group of people inside swearing crazily: “Damn it! Take us away too!!”
“Why can’t our country be like them! Those incompetent idiots in high positions! It’s all their fault!”
“I’m so jealous of that Chinese guy!”
