Chapter 48: Desolate Scene

  Zhou Yue did not join the action to stop the riot. Although it has been less than two days since the disaster occurred, he feels like it has been two years. Many things that used to excite him have become dull and tasteless without him realizing it. It's not that he doesn't want to pay attention, but the fear in his heart makes him uninterested in understanding these things. In comparison, the life and death of ordinary people seem even more distant.

  Put Liang Xiaoxue to rest in the driver's seat of a truck, and Zhou Yue turned around and walked towards the explosion-proof command vehicle that Tang Kun was riding in, because the news about the desert wolf eagle that Tang Kun had just obtained came from the command vehicle.

  As for the Desert Wolf Eagle, although Zhou Yue had never seen it with his own eyes, he could guess from the chaos in Ning County that this thing would be even more terrifying than the Yellow Turbans!

  And where did this desert wolf eagle come from? Is it possible that in the midst of a bustling city, there will be a dark city, and in remote areas, there will be eerie and terrifying things like the desert wolf eagle? If so, it seems that the vast countryside is also not at peace.

  At this time, apart from Zhou Yue, Qin Lang and his girlfriend also stayed behind, all walking to the front of the explosion-proof command vehicle. Apparently, Qin Lang also keenly realized that the appearance of the desert wolf eagle was very crucial.

  "Tang Lianchang, did the desert wolf eagle leave any images behind?"

  As he walked up to the armored command vehicle, Zhou Yue asked, he felt it was necessary to deeply understand the situation of the Desert Wolf Eagle. Although he thought he was very powerful now, the Desert Wolf Eagle with a wingspan of 50 meters was really too frightening! Especially since its attributes couldn't be seen, didn't that mean that the Desert Wolf Eagle's level was very high?

  Perhaps it was because of Zhou Yue's current strength, plus the transaction of that standard wooden shield, Tang Kun finally had a slightly better attitude towards Zhou Yue. He didn't ask him why he stayed behind, but shook his head heavily and said: "There were no images left behind, because those dozen desert wolf eagles appeared too quickly. With just one flap of their wings, it was a storm of flying sand and rocks, and people on the ground were directly swept away. Who would have had the mind to leave behind images? Currently, the only thing that can be confirmed is that these desert wolf eagles came from the west and have no connection with the Red Scarf Army of Chishan City! Moreover, according to expert analysis, these desert wolf eagles with huge killing power seemed to be just foraging, rather than actively attacking!"

  "Foraging?" Zhou Yue was taken aback. Such a huge commotion, and it's just foraging? If they were to launch an attack, how terrifying would that be?

  At this time, Tang Kun hesitated for a moment and continued: "According to the feedback from all over the country, this disaster not only has those 19 major ancient military forces, but also in many remote areas, especially in famous mountains and rivers, some extremely terrifying flying birds and beasts have appeared. However, these flying birds and beasts seem to have their own territories, except for foraging or being provoked, they will not attack easily. At present, it can be basically confirmed that these powerful flying birds and beasts can no longer be killed with the current stage of weapons. For example, those desert wolf eagles, roughly estimated, their flight speed has already exceeded the speed of sound, plus their agility, defensive power and attacking power, even the most advanced fighter jets may not be able to lock onto them!"

  At this point, Tang Kun sighed: "Nowadays, the world is no longer what it used to be. In order for humans to survive, I think we can only constantly upgrade and grow, become stronger and stronger, in order to have a foothold. Those Yellow Turbans should just be a transition, but the Great Qin army, the Great Han army, and those suddenly appearing flying birds and beasts are truly the terrifying peak existence!"

  Tang Kun's words were deeply acknowledged by Zhou Yue, because all along, the sense of urgency in his heart had been like a shadow following him closely. Even after advancing to level 6, he still didn't have any sense of stability. Now it seemed that compared to those who caused these disasters, he was simply too weak!

  About an hour later, the chaos in Ning County finally subsided. The flames and thick smoke drifted through the streets, with wails and cries rising and falling. No one bothered to count the number of deaths caused by the riot, because no one knew if normal order would return tomorrow morning.

  Is the future life or death? Is it torment or fear? All of this is like a thick night color shrouding everyone's heart, and the oppressive nightmare will inevitably be tonight's feast!

  Zhou Yue and others returned to the Ningcheng Hotel, but compared to the scene at noon, the hotel's grand entrance had been smashed into a pile of rubble. The pale-faced hotel staff were cowering in the corner, their faces once beautiful now looked like withered leaves trembling in the cold wind. In this disaster, women are always the biggest victims!

  The kitchen staff of this Ningcheng Hotel has run off to who-knows-where. In the chaos that lasted for over an hour just now, countless survivors who had escaped from Chishan City ran out of Ning County Town, they were really frightened.

  It's okay, in that back kitchen, although they were also robbed, the remaining food was enough for Zhou Yue and his group to eat for several days.

  At the moment, Zhao Dashan, Li Dan, and Wang Qiang took the initiative to cook in the back kitchen, clanging pots and pans. Zhou Yue also brought Liang Xiaoxue to watch the commotion on the side. However, his main concern was that someone might tamper with the food, so he was hesitant to eat the fallen flatbread, which was too unpalatable anyway. He thought that as the Yellow Turban Army's power expanded, it would be difficult to enjoy such comfortable meals again, so it was best to keep the coarse flatbreads that could alleviate hunger for future needs.

  Liang Xiaoxue was very excited, Zhou Yue had reached level 6, giving her a sense of security she had never felt before. So at this moment, although she had only recovered 1 point of energy value, she still rushed forward to help. Then Zhang Ying, who was originally standing by and watching the excitement, also couldn't bear to just watch and followed to help with tasks like picking vegetables.

  "You go and help too, how can a few people handle the meals for over sixty people?" At this time, Qin Lang also led his cold and noble girlfriend to come over, directly instructing her. His girlfriend first frowned, unwilling at first, but under Qin Lang's glare, she had no choice but to step forward and help.

  After sending away his girlfriend, Qin Lang walked over to Zhou Yue's side and handed him a cigarette. When Zhou Yue shook his head indicating he didn't smoke, he put the cigarette away and said: "Zhou Yue, I think those Yellow Turbans will be ready in two or three days, or even less time, before they attack Ning County. I don't think we can hold out. Where do you plan to go when that happens? The countryside or somewhere else?"

  "We'll talk about it later, we don't even know what tomorrow will bring!" Zhou Yue smiled, he knew Qin Lang was trying to rope him in. Previously, Qin Lang had always used surpassing him as motivation, but after he rose to 6th level in an extremely short period of time, Qin Lang must have been super depressed.

  However, Zhou Yueke was not interested in getting along with Qin Lang. At present, except for Liang Xiaoxue, he did not trust anyone else. Although his thoughts were a bit too dark, in the current disaster where lives were like grass, it was still not enough to be careful.

  Zhou Yue and Qin Lang were talking when Tang Kun also brought his soldiers back, just now they were arranging the bodies of the ten dead soldiers, so at this moment they all looked very solemn.

  Zhou Yue also felt a sense of melancholy, and in fact, he had to admit that at this stage, the role played by the military in such a huge disaster was absolutely crucial, like a backbone. And that was an extremely united and reliable team. Unfortunately, he couldn't squeeze into such a team, nor did he want to. He, Zhao Dashan, Li Dan, and others were all influenced by petty bourgeois thoughts. Qin Lang, for example, had the face of a merchant who only cared about profits. As for Tang Kun, he probably valued the overall situation more.

  That's the different nature of the three forces in their current team, fortunately, they can still cooperate with each other for a short time.
