707 It Doesn’t Matter. I Am Here.
“Whoever dares to say the word escape, I will punish him with military law right now!” Old Liu shouted angrily.
They were soldiers, not members of an idle organization.
Ever since they were sent to Ocean City, their mission had been to protect the safety of the citizens.
Now that the demons were invading, they were needed.
If their last line of defense crumbled, the hundreds of millions of people in the city would all be annihilated.
As a soldier, this was something that could not be tolerated. It was also a shame and crime that would accompany them for life.
Everyone fell silent.
If they were to escape now, perhaps the higher-ups would not punish them too severely.
After all, it wasn’t that they wanted to be deserters. The battle they were about to face is a battle with no hope and meaning.
Not to mention that there were only thirty Immortal Realm members present. Even if they sent a few hundred Celestial Realm experts over, they would still be in a situation where they would definitely lose. ????n????????e????????. Co????
Therefore, retreating now would not cause any unnecessary losses. Instead, it would preserve the military’s combat strength.
If they were forced to stay, it would be a meaningless death. Besides being awarded some merit points after death, nothing would be left behind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaptain Zhou looked at the crowd and finally sighed helplessly. “If you want to leave, then go. I won’t stop you.”
“Old Zhou!”
“There’s no need to say anymore, Old Liu. We have indeed failed in our duties this time.”
Captain Zhou waved his hand and interrupted Old Liu.
When the others saw this, they quickly expressed their gratitude and turned around to flee.
Only a few people remained where they were with solemn expressions, showing no intention of retreating.
They were all high-ranking military personnel.
“Old Zhou is right. We have failed in our duty. If we had asked for help from the higher-ups earlier, we wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.”
The rest of the people had bitter expressions.
When they received the news of the demon invasion, they were prepared to ask for help from their superiors.
However, due to City Lord Wang’s greed for credit, he obstructed them from within. They also did not realize that these invasions would be so serious.
Therefore, they did him a favor and temporarily put down the matter of requesting reinforcements.
Although they had sent out a request later, it was already too late.
In terms of responsibility, other than Captain Zhou, who was not present, none of them could escape it.
Staying here was a way to atone for their sins and the last dignity and honor they had as soldiers.
“I’m sorry, Old Zhou. We’ve implicated you this time.”
The seven or eight people who stayed turned to look at Captain Zhou.
Captain Zhou wasn’t present during the demon invasion. By the time he returned, the situation had already reached a point where it was irreversible.
Speaking of which, Captain Zhou was also implicated by them.
Captain Zhou looked at the people who stayed behind. He had no intention of criticizing them.
They were once comrades who had gone through life and death together.
Even after such a thing had happened, he still had no intention of abandoning them and escaping alone.
“Alright, don’t act like a sissy. Get ready. It’s been a long time since we brothers fought side by side,” Captain Zhou joked, pretending to be relaxed.
He sighed in his heart and pitied the innocent people of this city.
They were inexplicably implicated in such a crisis.
Not only there were threats of demons outside the city, but many rioters ran amuck inside.
For the people who were content with their lot, it was a great pain and disaster.
[Warning: Abnormal energy fluctuations beyond critical values have been detected! Threat level: Apocalypse!]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe group with heavy hearts suddenly received an alert from the low-orbit satellite at the same time.
Everyone looked at the display screen on their wrists in fear.
In the center of the blood-red screen, a huge yellow dot appeared.
Above the yellow dot, there was a big exclamation mark in black.
That was the symbol of the disaster level.
An apocalypse-class disaster was enough to destroy a large city!
Ocean City was only considered a top-tier medium city. It was still a long way from being a megacity.
But now, an apocalypse-level threat had appeared.
“Those demons think too highly of us.”
Among the few people left behind, one of them laughed bitterly.
The two demons at the medium stage of the Celestial Realm were already enough to make them despair. Now, there were stronger existences.
Were they really here to attack Ocean City?
The group sat on the ground, paralyzed. All of them lost their fighting spirit.
Only Captain Zhou stared into the distance as if he had discovered something unbelievable.
...
“That is… It’s the aura of Mr. Lin!”
