Chapter 281 I don't have that kind of power

Daxing City, Old Palace.

At this moment, the whole Daxing City is brightly lit.

This place is no exception, and a huge retreat is underway.

As a survivor base of sufficient size, there is also a retreat plan here. But it still borrows some military power.

A large number of survivors are retreating, but the order is relatively better than that of the survivor base of the Daxing Federation Military.

This is the uniqueness of this survivor base composed entirely of survivors.

This place is almost built by personal worship.

Bai Yiming's orders are very useful among the survivors here.

But at this moment, there are two scenes inside and outside the old palace.

Outside the old palace, the survivors retreated like a tide.

But in the depths of the old palace.

Many high-level and survivor fighters of the survivor base gathered here.

In front of Bai Yiming's residence.

Ye Wen stood in the shadow of the corner, lowered her head, and remained silent.

These people here are all ordinary people and very powerful survivors.

They are all high-ranking and many of them are experts. Before this, they have been assisting Bai Yiming in managing the survivor base, responsible for security and internal governance. They can be said to be the important pillars of stability in this survivor base.

At this moment, they gathered in front of the door.

"Old Bai, I still can't agree with your decision. You have such strength, why don't you take action? The military has already visited us three times. It's time for us to take action. Ordinary survivors can run, but we can't run!" The burly man spoke first.

Someone immediately responded from behind.

"Yes, what the military said makes sense. The current situation is like this. We have no choice. Even if we run away today, where can we go with so many people? I know you want to protect the survivors, but when that time comes, no matter how powerful you are, you can't be the opponent of an entire top civilization. We can't sit and watch the federal army be defeated."

"What the federation said makes sense. The survivors can run, but we can't run. We must stay and fight them to the end. Otherwise, we can only passively wait for the result. Once the federation is defeated, any of the top civilizations will achieve their goals and gain an advantage. The difference between us and the federation soldiers who are fighting to death here is the difference between who dies first and who dies later. Can't you think clearly about this truth? With your strength, you are definitely not weaker than that son of civilization Yeying. If you join the war, you will definitely bring more possibilities to our human side!"

A irritable girl gritted her teeth, stomped her feet angrily, and said: "Coward, you don't join the war, we join the war, I will ask everyone, those who want to stay and fight for their own survival, follow me!"

Heads of people surged around.

Many people followed suit.

They all wanted to fight.

They all knew the current severe situation. Multiple top civilizations would have a round of collisions in Daxing City. No matter who wins, the unlucky ones will be the humans in the entire region.

Therefore, they all wanted to stay and join the war.

These people, who can follow Bai Yiming to manage the survivor base and protect so many people here, are all brave people. It is not surprising to make this choice at this time.

"Mr. Bai, I respect you and follow you not only because you are strong, but also because you not only have strength, but also choose to use your strength to protect others. But now, your choice is too disappointing. This is a demented and cowardly act!" This is a gentle middle-aged man wearing glasses. He seems to have a high status in this group of people. As soon as he opened his mouth, the surroundings suddenly became quiet again. "Moreover, our survivor base has more than 400,000 people. It is impossible to evacuate all of them. If you leave, we will leave. Are we going to leave the last group of people here to die? Have you forgotten your decision to shelter the survivors here?"

His words fell, and the field was quiet.

People looked expectantly at the depths of the house in front, hoping that the people inside would come out and say a few words.

They all came for this legendary strongman of Daxing, to follow and believe in him, but now, Bai Yiming's decision made them feel incomprehensible and even unacceptable. As a result, they were now excited, and some even showed disappointment.

"Have you said enough..."

At this time, Ye Wen, who was standing in the corner, couldn't help it. She finally raised her head, her eyes were sharp, and swept across everyone's face: "Professor Wang, Liu Chen, without Bai Yiming, would you have lived until now? You would have been killed by the Kale people long ago. When you speak, pat your conscience. No one has the obligation to fight for anyone. You dragged others into the water. Have you ever thought about what you would do if you killed others?!"

Everyone didn't expect that she was the one who spoke, and they all looked at her blankly.

No one reacted for a while.

"Xiao Ye, you know that's not what I mean..."

The gentle middle-aged man with glasses pushed his glasses and stepped forward.

He was Professor Wang in Ye Wen's mouth.

He had little combat power, but he formed a spontaneous medical team in this survivor base, saved countless people, and was admired by many people. He was highly respected.

But at this moment, the old wooden door in front finally creaked.

The door was pushed open from the inside to the outside.

Everyone fell silent in a second.

Everyone looked over.

Because Bai Yiming came out.

He has supreme prestige here, even though he looks thin and pale, as if he can be blown away by the wind.

But when he appeared, these people suddenly became honest.

Even the strong woman who was clamoring to recruit people to fight on her own lowered her head and did not dare to say anything.

Bai Yiming's eyes swept across the audience, and he said: "I will fulfill my promise. I will protect these people until my death. I know that before the Black Sheep Civilization Army arrives, our people cannot all be saved before that time." Withdraw, so next, I will reveal the true situation to all survivor bases and evacuate in batches. Those who are willing to leave last, I will personally escort them. As for joining the war, I know you want to join the war, you can go. I won’t restrain you, as long as it doesn’t affect the evacuation of these people here.”

"I don't understand." Professor Wang said, "Are you really not ready to join the war? You are obviously so powerful..."

Bai Yiming did not answer this question. He took one last look at everyone, waved his hands, turned around and walked back into the shadows behind him.

Ye Wen lowered her head: "I understand, I'll make arrangements right away."

The remaining people looked at each other.

I felt confused about Bai Yiming's answer, but I didn't really agree with it.

But at least he's trying to keep his promise.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and finally dispersed.

They will make their own choices.

Either leave, or organize your own men to join the war.

Ye Wen was very capable, and it didn't take long to arrange the things Bai Yiming told her.

A burst of panic and confusion broke out among the survivors below.

After all, anyone who hears that not everyone can evacuate will definitely feel scared.

Judging from the current situation, the risk factor for whoever stays is extremely high.

But Bai Yiming's survivor base is special after all.

If the same situation happens at the Federation Survivor Base, the chaos will be difficult to calm down, and may even get worse.

But at this moment, with the efforts of Ye Wen and others, the chaos did not last long and soon stabilized again.

This is because Bai Yiming promised that he would leave last and protect the last group of people from evacuating.

Bai Yiming's strength is obvious to all, but his commitment is rare and meaningful in this era.

Because he keeps his promise.

He protects everyone here.

The survivors here all came because of his strength, and they came even more because they believed in his ability.

Having him escort the last group of people to leave naturally made many people feel relieved.

And Ye Wen is also selecting people who are willing to stay.

She told the survivors that whoever is willing to take the initiative to stay and become the last batch of evacuees, then his family and friends will be able to evacuate first.

People who stay actively are always more stable than those who stay passively.

As soon as this plan came out, many people were willing to stay.

Some of them wanted to give priority to their families to evacuate, and some of them wanted to stay on their own initiative.

Ye Wen saw an old man.

His hair has turned gray, and he said: "I am old. Without Bai Yiming, I might have died long ago. I feel very lucky to live here today. Living one more day is God's favor for me. I have no family." But I am also willing to be the last one to evacuate and give the opportunity to young people and children... Please help me tell Bai Yiming that it doesn't matter. Even if he can't protect us in the end, it doesn't matter. In this situation, no one can do anything. We don’t care who we really protect from death.”

Ye Wen raised her head.

Seeing the surging crowd of survivors, there are many old people like this. Some of them, like this old man, want to give opportunities to young people, and some of them just can’t run anymore and don’t want to run anymore...

But the people in this survivor base are indeed very grateful and respectful to Bai Yiming.

Based on this concept, Bai Yiming's decisions can basically be implemented and executed as long as they are not particularly outrageous.

They believed in Bai Yiming.

Looking at this scene, Ye Wen's expression was a little complicated.

Their survivor base is very special. Although there were some disagreements above, in the huge survivor base below, Bai Yiming was still the flag in the hearts of the survivors.

The day Bai Yiming took action.

She was not here either. The group of people at that time were just ordinary survivors. Later, after the survivor base expanded, they almost disappeared and were all scattered. However, she had heard about that day more than once.

But right now...

Ye Wen handed this place to the people around her and turned around and walked into the depths of the old palace.

She saw Bai Yiming in the shadow, she pursed her lips and said, "Don't blame Professor Wang and the others, they just want to do their part."

"I know. I understand." Bai Yiming's voice was very calm, as if nothing had happened just now. After saying the previous sentence, he was silent for a moment, and then asked again: "Do you also think I should take action?"

Ye Wen hesitated for a moment and did not answer.

There is no answer, this is the answer.

Bai Yiming said in the shadow: "I know that what you said is right, but what is the right choice? If I take action, people will die. If I don't take action, people will die as well. You are right, what is happening in my heart Without fear, war can only bring death. You all think that I am very powerful, and that Ye Ying from the Demon City is also under me, but I do not have that kind of power.

"My strength comes only from death.

"And...it's not the same as you think."

Footsteps sounded in the shadows.

He took steps and walked out of the darkness step by step. His slightly pale face looked at Ye Wen in front of him, and the light in his eyes was a little gray: "I know, this sounds very discouraging, isn't it very disappointing, but I don't have that kind of power, so I haven't taken action since that battle and have only maintained the status quo, because only by maintaining the status quo can I fulfill my promise and protect the safety of hundreds of thousands of people in this survivor base... Because I don't have that kind of power...

"Even if I want to fight, I can't fight, so I can only run away with my tail between my legs, so... you don't have to have such high expectations of me. Wait, when everything is over, you can leave and stay away from the big team. If they succeed, you can go to them. If they fail, with your ability, you should be able to survive alone. "

No one was around.

Only the two of them could hear Bai Yiming's words, but what he said was not what Daxing Legend should be like.

And like a helpless ordinary person.

Facing the raging torrent of doomsday, we are desperate and powerless.

But Ye Wen only looked at him, the light in her eyes never changing.

In the end, she shook her head: "Everyone in this survivor base owes you a life. Your power has attracted everyone's attention. How can you say that you don't have that ability? I don't believe it. But no matter what you want to do, I will I can follow you and support you unconditionally.”

Bai Yiming was a little stunned by her answer.

Ye Wen, who always had a cold face, smiled at him gently, then stepped back and walked away, walking on her slender legs, and left here.

But she didn't see Bai Yiming's eyes behind her.

Bai Yiming looked far away.

In fact, she guessed it right.

Bai Yiming never wanted to escape from the beginning.

He is an innocent and just person. From the first time he took action to today, he has always wanted to help and save more people. He feels that this is what a human being should do. This is a very holy idea, but perhaps it is precisely because of this idea that he can be praised by so many people.

Everyone scolds Our Lady, thinking that Our Lady is stupid, and her idea of ​​saving the world seems to be half-baked no matter how you look at it. But who wouldn’t feel deep down that such a person is great? That's something I can't do and don't dare to do. Not wanting to be something or not being it can be called rational, and it is understandable and human nature, but no one should criticize them from their own perspective, because what they do is something that most people cannot do.

Bai Yiming believes it. In the face of this global catastrophe, only if everyone contributes can we win. Only if someone stands up can mankind survive. He is willing to be that person. He wants to be that kind of person, he wants to see a peaceful and beautiful world. There is no reason, he is just like this, maybe because he has not graduated from college, has not been severely beaten by society, and does not know what kind of price he has to pay for others' selflessness and justice, and he does not even understand the meaning of the price.

But that's what he wanted to do. That's what he thinks.

Bai Yiming just wants to save everyone. But he knew more clearly that even if he devoted all his strength, he would not be able to achieve much in this battle. Moreover, his strength was based on sacrifice, not death as outsiders thought. How could someone like him do that in exchange for power?

Empty power can only make people fearful. Thoughts are what make people respectable. Together we are in awe.

Bai Yiming has made up his mind.

He won't leave.

He would watch the last group of survivors he had promised to shelter leave, fulfill his promise to help as many people as he could, and then stay here to fight.

In every way possible.

On the other side, Ye Wen hesitated for a long time after leaving, but she called someone she trusted and said: "Go find the old survivors of the stadium battle. There were many people who were close to Bai Yiming at that time... I want to ask a few people, I want to know...what exactly is his ability..."

Bai Yiming's ability and his rise are both a mystery. Externally, Bai Yiming's ability is related to blood and death. It was because too many people died at that time, so Bai Yiming, who had little fighting power, rose up in one day, and because of this, Later, Bai Yiming seldom took action. This is the generally accepted answer, but there are actually some problems in it that are inevitable if you think about it carefully. It’s just that no one has ever thought deeply about it. After all, who has the heart to investigate the current situation on such a global battlefield? After all, the strength Bai Yiming had shown was genuine.

But now...

Listening to what Bai Yiming just said, she realized that maybe it wasn't that simple.

The person she found looked at her with some confusion, wondering why he wanted to investigate Bai Yiming at this time.

Ye Wen thought about what Bai Yiming had just said, she was silent for a moment, and said with shining eyes: "Because I suddenly felt that he didn't really want to leave. Maybe, his real idea was to stay and fight alongside everyone, but For some reason none of us know why we can't...

"I……

"I want to help him."

…
