Chapter 612 Hope
The light coming through the wide open door became the only light in the house that was plunged into darkness due to the power outage. However, this light was far from enough to illuminate the underground shelter. A few people standing in front can be illuminated by the light, but the vast majority of people are still hidden in the shadows.
A suddenly quiet room, people looking at each other less than two meters apart.
Even the most obtuse person can notice that the atmosphere has become quite weird.
Xing Nai glanced at the people in the room, taking in all the different expressions on people's faces that they had not yet had time to hide. Her years of experience in the streets have allowed her to see all kinds of things in the world, so she naturally knows that everyone hears all kinds of expressions. What was on his mind after hearing the voice of the special star.
The silence only lasted for two or three seconds before someone timidly shouted: "That...actually, no one believes it at all."
His words were like an introduction, causing everyone to start talking again. :
“Yes Ah, yes, how can you believe what the aliens say?"
"That's right, without Ultraman, we wouldn't be where we are now."
"No one would. Believe in a word from aliens ”
"."
Noisy sounds once again filled the entire underground shelter, causing Anna to frown and shouted: "Okay, the monsters have been eliminated. Everyone can go out and go to the base." Let’s see if there is anything available, let’s do this for now.”
"Oh! Oh!"
The people who were at a loss hurriedly swarmed out from both sides of the EDF people standing in the middle of the door. When they passed each other, they smiled slightly awkwardly or shook their fists. With a 'come on' gesture, the awkward and noisy underground shelter became empty after a while.
Hingena took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and said: "Risa, please help Chiba diagnose and treat her. Let's go to other shelters and organize everyone to clean up the base as soon as possible."< br>
"Yeah!" Risa nodded and helped Chiba Makoto walk to the room inside the shelter, while the others split up and went to other shelters to inform everyone that the monsters had been eliminated, and quickly returned to the base to count the losses. There are also arrangements for food and accommodation for tonight and the next period, as well as the most important reconstruction work.
The dust in the air reflects the colors with longer wavelengths back to the sky, leaving only the shortest light waves that can be transmitted to the ground. Therefore, when viewed from the ground to the sky, they hang in the gray sky. The sun is emitting blue-purple light, which looks particularly strange.
On the ground as dark as dusk, people walked out of the darker underground shelters and walked towards the broken and shapeless base. What they saw was a ruined and messy field without a single green vegetable. , grain seedlings, only deep pits are left.
The ruined house collapsed into disarray, with less than one-third of the remaining masonry and rubble remaining. Some were blown away, some were blown to pieces, and some were burned. melt.
Correspondent Binet stopped, bent down, and pulled out a piece of iron sheet that was still hot to the touch from the broken masonry. The two letters 'E and D' could be vaguely distinguished, but all other parts were missing. I looked up and looked around. The warehouse where industrial robots and power station equipment were placed has become a big pit. Even the foundation has disappeared. Only one windmill that used to spin non-stop is left, and there is only one fan blade. It hangs precariously, giving the impression that it will fall at any moment.
Zuohe came over and patted Hina comfortingly on the shoulder, but she couldn't say a word of comfort because she was also very unhappy. In this apocalypse, it is extremely rare to have a place to stay. Everyone moved from the sewer. Entering this base, I feel as if I have entered paradise. Everyone has worked extremely hard to build this place, but everything is ruined. There was a sound of sobbing from the side, and a woman in her twenties squatted in the ruins and cried: "When will our home with monsters end?"
"Alas! "The man next to him sighed, standing in the ruins with his head hanging down. The child he was holding in his hand was holding a simple graffiti of a family of three standing on the grass, but only one third of it was burned.
Looking at other places, everyone’s expressions were so mournful and sad.
Another place to stay is gone. I don’t know where to move, let alone where the future will be.
"Everyone." Anna stood on a high place and shouted loudly: "Listen to me."
The people who were searching in vain among the ruins stopped, turned their heads, and looked at the only remaining person standing there. Anna gets off the roof of the car.
Xing Nai took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "The base was destroyed, I am very sad, I am also very sad, but everyone is still there, and as long as people are still there, we can rebuild our home. "
Xing Nai's speech was not contagious at all. Everyone stood and watched with a blank face, and no one said a word.
“Ultraman has destroyed the incoming monsters, and there is still a large amount of food stored in the underground shelter, which is enough for a long time, so everyone.”
When Ultraman was mentioned, everyone finally had some sparkle in their eyes. Although most people trembled and hid, not daring to come out to see, they still knew through word of mouth that Ultraman had defeated the monster. A man from the universe angrily issued a 'fatal order'.
"Yes, we still have Ultraman." Someone finally spoke, and then voices in twos and threes also sounded, all comforting and encouraging each other.
Xing Nai breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone had come out of the depression and sadness after seeing the ruined base, raised their heads, started looking around, stopped crying, and started talking again. , the base can be rebuilt if it is gone, but if the hearts of the people are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team.
Because of Ultraman, it was not easy for everyone to find the hope of survival again, and finally see a glimmer of the future. Anna really doesn’t want to see everyone lose confidence and go back to living in the sewers. of numbness and despair.
The sky gradually darkened, and everyone carried a few broken items found from the ruins and returned to the underground shelter, which was particularly cramped compared to the base. They used bricks picked up from the ruins to Stoves were set up one after another outside, pots were set up, fires were lit, and dinner began to be prepared.
Amidst the smoke and fire, Chiba Makoto walked out of the underground shelter with Risa's support. What he saw was the fires burning on the dark ground. They kept crackling and the fire light emitted. , reflecting the faces with some smiles, whispering something to the people around him.
The adults were adding firewood and water, and the children were chasing and playing around the fire. The scene was very harmonious and joyful, but the occasional sighs proved that this disaster was not without its impact.
