章 3: The Gunshots Rang Out, And The Escapees Fell
At the same time.
The higher-ups of the Sky Capital Alliance called for an emergency meeting to discuss the fate of the two.
The gazes of the various regional alliances around the world were gathered here.
The entire Sky Capital Alliance was under immense pressure.
Everyone at the scene didn't want the two of them to join the world outside.
They were the first face of this crisis!
The reporters were even shouting for the military to shoot and kill the two of them.
They didn't want to die, and they didn't want to become savage monsters!
Thousands of black muzzles were pointed at the siblings.
The propeller of the assault helicopter was roaring.
Countless people's faces were gradually turning ferocious.
Every soldier's breathing was rapid. Their fingers were on the trigger, waiting for an order to act.
It was as if the lives of this pair of siblings were no longer in their hands.
…
"Brother, I'm scared ..."
Jiang Tang's voice trembled.
Looking at the black muzzles, the scene was like a tsunami, accompanied by deafening angry shouts.
She held Jiang Feng's hand even tighter.
She was only twelve years old!
Three years ago, the zombies had attacked the city. She was only nine years old then. If it wasn't for Jiang Tang being obedient, she wouldn't have been able to survive the purgatory, let alone getting out of the city wall now!
Twelve years old, the age of innocence.
She was supposed to be in primary school, playing with other children, eating nutritious meals, and sleeping safely with her parents.
But what about Jiang Tang?
What had she experienced?
She had been resisting it all this time, and she had almost forgotten what the sun looked like!
Countless people wanted them to die.
Countless people felt that they would kill the people outside and die together.
No one thought of their plight.
If they didn't come out, who would know that there were still living people in the city?
Where was their salvation?
They...
They only wanted to live.
Jiang Feng looked at the soldiers in the distance and said gently, "Don't be afraid, little sugar. I'll protect you."
Jiang Tang was only twelve years old.
Even three years ago, she had not been as rebellious and spoiled as other children.
But until now, she didn't have the chance to live a normal life.
She was undoubtedly pitiful.
If there was any way for her to return to the life she deserved...
Jiang Feng would not show any anger.
He could be fierce enough to break out of the siege of apocalypse.
But he could also endure being pointed at by countless black gun barrels.
"Brother, they will save us, right?"
Jiang Tang raised her head and asked with clear eyes.
"En!"
"I believe in them. Give them some time. After all... we are also outsiders."
Jiang Feng nodded heavily.
He had already calmed down. He had come from Kerry City, so it was normal for the people outside to be afraid. They needed time.
He could only hope that the result would not be too bad.
Jiang Tang also nodded.
"Hmm... I'm not afraid! I have my brother! My brother will protect me!"
That pure voice.
It was enough to make Jiang Feng persist until the last moment.
...
The high-ranking officer looked at Jiang Feng and his sister.
In his heart, he had the intention to rescue them.
After all, they were his compatriots, and two lives were at stake.
However, he had forgotten one thing.
He was at the back of the army, but he could still hear so many people's almost crazy hostility, malice, worry, and fear of the virus infection toward these two people.
As for the soldiers in front.
It was a short distance of fifty meters.
Almost every soldier's body was stiff.
They were listening to the officers' discussion through their headsets and comms.
They could hear the anger of the countless reporters and citizens behind them.
They looked at the dust-filled hole in front.
Under the propeller of the armed helicopter, no other sound could be heard.
It was as if countless zombies could come out of the hole at any second.
'Tear the bodies of the two people apart.'
'Or, the two of them would explode and spread the virus infection, causing them to lose their lives!'
Trembling!
The fingers holding the gun became more and more stiff!
Sweat seeped through the officer's palms, and his tactical gloves were no longer as firm as before.
The last part of the trigger was slowly pulled by the index finger.
His trembling seemed to be fighting against the kindness in his heart.
The sound in his headset was getting noisier.
"Shoot, quickly shoot! Shoot!"
"Don't shoot! The other regional alliances are all watching!"
"Stop hesitating! We will be infected by them!"
"Do you want to die? You can't disobey the order!"
"The hole has been open for too long! The zombies would be drawn here! It has been three years! Who can guarantee that the zombies will still be affected by the sonic weapons?"
"Fire!"
"Don't shoot!"
"Fire!"
"Don't shoot!"
Even the officer's expression became irritable and ferocious.
The discussion did not come to a conclusion.
The officers on the scene had already developed differences in opinion.
Every soldier was in a state of panic!
Their movements were too stiff!
And they had already pulled their triggers to the safest limit, as if they had been facing a great enemy for a long time!
The situation inside the high wall...
It had been three years since anyone knew.
The gap created by the explosion this time...
It was like a human's psychological defense that was hidden deeply had been blown apart.
What kind of terrifying scene was inside?
To what extent had the virus evolved?
Would they turn into zombies?
All the reporters subconsciously took a step back.
Even the slightest movement could lead to some undesirable consequences!
At this moment.
Everyone held their breath, not daring to make a single sound!
His heart was no longer beating regularly.
Bang! Bang!
Bang Bang Bang!
"Bang!"
Heavy breathing!
His eyes were fixed ahead, and he was sweating so much that his eyes were almost blinded.
Click-
Time seemed to have stopped.
One person...
As his muscles trembled...
The wind moved.
The clouds moved.
The ground was also shaking.
He... subconsciously, he pulled the trigger past the last safety.
Bang!
The muzzle of the gun lit up!
At this moment, the sound of the assault Helicopter disappeared!
The smell of gunpowder made the soldiers look ferocious!
The bullet missed.
Immediately after!
Countless soldiers' fingers trembled!
They used the gunshot as a signal!
Their bullets poured out crazily!
After the first person's hesitation was shattered, all the walls seemed to have become invisible!
The barrier in their hearts no longer had any effect.
The entire unit began to fire at the front!
"Don't shoot!"
The officer was stunned!
In the next second, his voice became a furious roar!
He was like a lion, roared crazily!
"Who fired the gun!"
"Who is it?!"
"They are not zombies! They are humans! Why did you shoot?!"
"Stop! Don't shoot!"
However, in the chaotic situation, no one could hear his orders.
The rest of the people also showed a relaxed expression.
The people let out a breath of relief.
They were dead.
It was good that they were dead.
The people outside would not be infected.
The soldiers looked at their comrades with a relaxed expression.
As if they had not just taken the lives of two people.
Instead, they had done a great thing.
Vaguely, the media at the back also cheered.
They had killed humans.
Or did they kill the zombies?
It could actually make these people so happy?
A gunshot rang out.
No one could stop the ferocity of the bullets.
The moment the gunshot was heard, Jiang Feng tried to use his body to shield his sister.
But.
When he moved stiffly, he only saw Jiang Tang's body being pierced by bullets and falling into a pool of blood.
The moment Jiang Tang fell, she was also looking at him.
Her eyes were a little blank, but there was a smile at the corner of her mouth.
As if to say, 'I still believe in Big Brother!'
The bullets rained down.
By the time the commander's order was passed down and the soldiers stopped firing, Jiang Feng's body was already in tatters.
There were a few bullet holes in his body. Fortunately, the bullets didn't hit his brain. They only brushed past his cheeks and didn't hit his heart.
He managed to catch his breath and fell to the ground.
But when they saw this scene, everyone fell silent.
The army fell silent.
The reporters fell silent.
However, someone at the scene cursed.
"Motherf*cker!"
"Shoot! Don't you know how to follow up?"
"If he runs over here and his blood splatters on us, we'll be infected with the virus!!"
