Special Circumstance

“Alas, I really don’t want to go to deal with the beast tide,” Sloth said gloomily.

“How about this? If you cooperate with everyone and survive this time, I’ll introduce you to some cute guys when we go back?” Red Fox elbowed Sloth’s chest and said.

“Hmph, I don’t believe you. You’ve already made this promise at least five times.” Sloth turned her face away, not wanting to talk to Red Fox.

“Life and death are one thread. Either they do, or we do,” Zhou Mingrui uttered a famous line from a certain character in an online game from his previous life.

!!

The entire cabin fell into silence, and even Yan Wuyue looked at him with a strange look.

A moment later, Polar Bear looked at Yan Wuyue and asked, “Snow Leopard, has your summoned spirit been somewhere before?”

Yan Wuyue shook her head to show that she had no answer, but then she said, “I think he’s right. It’s either we die, or they do. What’s the point of having all these fears and doubts? ”

Polar Bear nodded. “That’s right. The beast tide is here, so there’s no way back. Either they die, or we do. We just have to fight with all our might to the last moment.

Sloth knew that she should stop complaining. After all, as a member of the Special Forces, it would be embarrassing for everyone if she kept acting like a coward.

Following that, the transport aircraft continued flying. Meanwhile, Zhou Mingrui’s mind was focused on the battle between Lieutenant General Yu and the figure of light.

[ You’re worried about Lieutenant General Yu fighting against the figure of light? ] Yan Wuyue’s voice suddenly came.

[ Are you not worried? ] Zhou Mingrui asked back.

[ I’m worried, but there’s no point. ] Yan Wuyue said calmly, [ If even Lieutenant General Yu can’t deal with him, then there’s no we can do it for sure. That’s not something we should be worried about, so let’s just think about how to deal with the next beast tide. ]

[ We will kick their asses, or what else can we do? ] Zhou Mingrui said indifferently, [Like what? Are we going to be their friends? ]

Upon hearing this, Yan Wuyue stopped talking because she knew that Zhou Mingrui had already recovered.

After half an hour of flight, the aircraft quickly landed at its destination, the resupplying base three kilometers away from the last line of defense.

Next, with the officers as the leaders, they hopped on the vehicles from the supply base to the destination.

However, when they arrived at the line of defense, they realized that the beast tide had not begun to attack. On the contrary, the monsters had stopped.

“I heard from a team leader that half an hour ago, the beast tide was about to gather and attack, but then all the monsters stopped moving as if they were under a spell.”

Polar Bear, who had gone to ask for information, returned and looked at everyone with a strange expression.

“Could it be that Lieutenant General Yu and the generals are stopping the figure of light from controlling these monsters? Maybe this is the reason?” Sloth asked.

“It can be, yea,” Red Fox nodded.

Giraffe, who rarely spoke, suddenly said, “Could it be because that guy is planning something? He wants to trick us into letting down our guard and then suddenly launch a surprise attack to take down our defense line in one fell swoop? ”

Everyone fell silent again, but Polar Bear laughed. “Don’t take her words seriously. She is always suspicious about everything. It was just a joke.”

“Captain, what I said could be true, right?” Giraffe said with an upset tone.

“Alright, alright, alright. I understand. I’ll be careful of the situation you’re talking about.” Polar Bear quickly tried to calm her down.

After Polar Bear finished speaking, Red Fox then said, “Captain, what should we do now?”

Polar Bear looked at her. “The army staff asks us to stay on the defensive line and wait. We can help the front line strengthen the defense and check for any gaps.

“Do you mean they want us to be free labors here?” Red Fox shrugged.

“What are you talking about? How can you say that we’re their free labor? We’re all comrades from the same military district. We have to try our best to support each other,” Polar Bear immediately scolded Red Fox.

“Yes, yes, yes, you are right, captain.” Red Fox had no choice but to agree and not argue.

“Why don’t we take this opportunity to get rid of monsters with all our strength?” Yan Wuyue suddenly said. “Killing them all is like a piece of cake now, right?”

Polar Bear shook her head and sighed. “I agree with you, and even my captain has the same idea. However, the general staff does not think so.”

“What did they say?” Yan Wuyue asked with a frown.

“Those guys from the general staff said that we should focus on Lieutenant General Yu’s battle but not act rashly here,” Polar Bear said gloomily.

“They said that if we accidentally wake up the monsters and they suddenly attack, the entire defensive line will be severely damaged.

“If we can’t handle the situation, Lieutenant General Yu’s attention will be diverted after the defense line is destroyed. It will be a disaster.”

After listening to Polar Bear’s words, everyone on the field, including those from other special forces, frowned.

“This is just an excuse to avoid being blamed. What a bunch of cowards!” Red-tailed Monkeysnorted.

“Yes, these cowards seriously piss me off now,” Sloth also said.

The people around them all agreed and scolded those from the general staff for being weak.

Ignoring the conversation, Zhou Mingrui stood at a high vantage point and looked into the distance at the densely-packed black shadows several kilometers away.

[ What are you worried about? ] Yan Wuyue asked again when she saw Zhou Mingrui’s expression.

[ I’m not worried. I’m just thinking about what’s going on in this world. How come there are so many monsters not being dealt with before all everything turns messy? ] Zhou Mingrui asked.

[ You don’t have monsters in your world? ] Yan Wuyue asked curiously.

[ No, there are only animals in my world, and there are no threats from other dimensions. Humans are the only highly intelligent creatures, ] Zhou Mingrui answered.

[ They are blessed. There is no need to worry about any danger at all. ] Yan Wuyue couldn’t help but sigh.

[ We are just pure humans who don’t have the abilities of summoners or the qualifications to summon spirits, so we are very fragile and weak,] Zhou Mingrui continued.

After a moment of silence, Yan Wuyue said, [ You can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs. ]

Zhou Mingrui looked into the distance and said after some time, [ I think I’m afraid. After all, I’ve never experienced such a scene before. We might not be able to survive in the battle. ]

Yan Wuyue said, [ I believe that no matter what, those monsters can’t scare you. ]
