The Female Partner of the Last Days Does Not Want To Be Popular

Chapter 331-335

Chapter 331: Between Life and Death

"I've said all these things, but the camp leader disagrees!" the young guy expressed his frustration and sadness. He, too, desired more reinforcements. It was unbearable for him to witness so many compatriots dying before his eyes.

"General Xu, let it go. It's not Xiaoguang's fault," Shen Hongye approached to console him. She, too, felt a burning anger within her. As a measure of protection, they all wore long-sleeved trousers during the scorching summer. Combined with the distressing news brought back by Xiaoguang, she could fully understand Xu Jianan's anger at this moment.

But... what could be done?

"Notify everyone to gather in formation! I won't lead them to their deaths. We'll wait until Wu's reinforcements arrive before venturing out. Zhang Peng and the others can follow us into the camp!" Xu Jianan's sudden decision stirred the players around him. If there was a chance to survive, who would be willing to die?

When everyone retreated to the city gate, preparing to enter, they discovered that the gate was tightly locked. No matter how much the people outside shouted or banged on it, the scarlet gate remained unyielding.

"The camp commander stated that the battle must appear as a battle, and there's no backing down!" a voice came from within the city gate, leaving the people outside stunned.

"Are they really expecting us to fight to the death with the zombies?!"

"500 people against tens of thousands of zombies, how can we fight?!"

However, there was no response from inside the gate to the arguments outside.

The soldiers' faces turned pale, and the sandbag defensive wall surrounding the city gate was on the verge of collapse. Xu Jianan realized a harsh reality: Wu Kang didn't intend to let them return alive!

[Is it because the camp is overcrowded and resources are insufficient, so they're using this opportunity to sacrifice some people?]

[This is outrageous! How can someone like that be a camp leader?]

[We're being led to our deaths.]

"General, what should we do?" someone asked.

"General Xu, let's fight. There might still be a chance. If one can survive, then one will live!" Zhang Peng thought of the wives and daughters in the city. Even though he felt helpless, he planned to hold on until the last moment.

"I don't want to fight anymore. Stop fighting," a soldier murmured as he gazed at the multitude of zombies about to breach the sandbag wall.

What was the point of fighting?

Why fight?

Why bother to stay alive?

When they died and became one of them, there would be no more pain, hunger, or fear...

"Chen Liang, what are you doing, Chen Liang?!" one of his teammates called out loudly, seeing his friend walking forward with a vacant look in his eyes.

Chen Liang didn't turn back or hesitate. He stared at the densely packed zombies in front of him and slowly advanced...

Roar!

A roar erupted from the mouth of the zombie, echoing from the depths of the abyss. At that moment, a sentence suddenly flashed through Chen Liang's mind: "One step forward, and it's hell."

As if awakening from a dream, Chen Liang took a few steps back. When he saw the decaying mouth of the zombie, regret flooded his heart. He didn't want to die like this; he wanted to live!
