Chapter 566 There is still time

After Li Xuecheng, more than a dozen people walked out of the crowd one after another. They also told Wang Chao some things before walking towards the Pillar of Origin.

Seeing these people die in front of him with nostalgia for the world, and listening to these people's dying instructions to him, Wang Chao clenched his fists tightly.

There was gratitude and admiration on his face.

A soldier finally couldn't bear it anymore and came to Wang Chao with tears streaming down his face and said:

"Since you have to sacrifice, let me sacrifice first. I'm sorry, sir, I've let you down. I'll go first!"

The soldier saluted Wang Chao and walked resolutely towards the Pillar of Origin.

"I'm sorry, sir! I have nothing to worry about. Let me go with my brothers!"

"Sorry, sir! I..."

Soldiers came out one after another, saluted Wang Chao, Qin Shuang and others, and then walked towards the Pillar of Origin.

Those heading towards the Pillar of Origin are all comrades who were with Wang Chao before the end of the world.

At that time, serving the people was still their mantra.

Sacrifice and dedication for the people is their motto.

Now seeing so many survivors sacrifice themselves before them, this is a lot of suffering and self-blame for those soldiers.

Wang Chao wanted to stop but couldn't speak.

He couldn't let the survivors see his side of favoring his own people.

Otherwise, it would become a joke to let others light the Pillar of Origin.

He could only watch as his men walked towards the Pillar of Origin one after another, and then lost their young lives.

Following this, more and more survivors joined the ranks of lighting up the Pillar of Origin.

At some point, Wang Chao, Qin Shuang and others, including many survivors, burst into tears.

This man who would never shed tears even if his life was hanging by a thread, shed tears at this moment.

Seeing that Wang Chao looked very painful, Qin Shuang patted Wang Chao's shoulder gently.

Seeing that the troop of soldiers was about to lose control, Lin Shi stopped him and said:

"That's enough. There are still more than 500 days left. Let's get here today and bury the bodies of these people on the spot."

If this continues, there will still be nearly 10,000 survivors, and the team of soldiers will disappear first.

Then there will be no one to guard these survivors.

Even Lin Shi's expression was shaken just now.

Lin Shi lowered his eyes, suppressed the emotion in his eyes, continued to regain his indifferent expression, and said to the tens of thousands of survivors still standing behind:

"From today on, if you don't want to die, you can get food by yourself. The requirement is that you cannot leave the island more than ten kilometers away."

"Let me remind you first, all the Origin Beasts from all over the world are running to this island, and I will kill all the Origin Beasts outside the island.

Next, you can only go to the sea to salvage fish. As for how to salvage, you can only think of it yourself.

If someone escapes, I will knock him out directly and throw him under the Pillar of Origin. Those who gather to make trouble, incite people's hearts, and those who violate disciplines and cause chaos will also suffer the same fate. "

"As you can see, I have an easier way to deal with you, so you'd better not challenge my bottom line. Do as I say and don't think about escaping."

"Yes yes! We know."

These survivors hurriedly agreed.

"If anyone volunteers to light up the Pillar of Origin, you can come to me to receive supplies, or if you have any other wishes, you can tell Captain Wang or me, and we will try our best to help you complete it."

Lin Shi added another sentence.

These people nodded and hurriedly left and ran back to the camp.

The crowd dispersed, and soon only Lin Shi, Wang Chao, Qin Shuang, Lin Rongxuan, Lin Siyuan, Qi Yun and others were left under the Pillar of Origin.

Only now did Wang Chao dare to show his tiredness and wavering. He excitedly grabbed Lin Shi's arm and asked:

"Brother Lin, can we humans really win? What if we pay such a heavy price and humans end up losing to the Origin Beast?!"

Lin Shi looked directly at Wang Chao:

"In this battle for survival, after lighting up the Pillar of Origin, there is no turning back."

"Captain Wang, the leader will send people from other countries next."

Qin Shuang said.

In fact, even if he is using people from other countries, Wang Chao will not be able to do it as long as he thinks of attacking his incompetent or extremely evil people.

He is a true soldier who has embraced the spirit of the army for many years.

You cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Wang Chao clenched his fists.

If victory could be gained by sacrificing one of his own, he would definitely not hesitate.

But this victory requires the sacrifice of most humans. He still has a lot to do, and he can't die yet!

Perhaps, there are other ways.

Lin Shi secretly thought.

In his previous life, he had lived in the apocalypse for eight years and had never heard of the existence of the Pillar of Origin.

Less than four years after the end of this life, the Pillar of Origin appeared.

What is the origin of this Pillar of Origin and why did it appear?

Lin Shi had to find out more about it next.

He would also spend time investigating how the Pillar of Origin wiped out humans, why it could wipe out humans, and whether it could be avoided by finding a way.

The first step is to kill all the source beasts outside.

The herd of source beasts on the island cannot be allowed to continue to grow.

Lin Shi still had a lot to do.

He patted Wang Chao on the shoulder and said:

"Captain Wang, Qin Shuang, I will leave this island to kill all the source beasts outside. I will leave the rest of the island to you."

Seeing that Wang Chao was still distracted, Qin Shuang answered for him:

"Leave it to us here."

"When you are young, we will go kill the Origin Beast with you."

Lin Rongxuan, Lin Siyuan, and Qi Yun all walked to Lin Shi.

"Okay, let's go together."

Lin Shi left Wang Chao and others to manage the survivors on the island and left supplies here.

According to what Lin Shi told Wang Chao, those who are willing to light the Pillar of Origin can receive the supplies and enjoy it for a few days, or make a modest request or last wish.

If someone takes the supplies and realizes their wish but fails to light the Pillar of Origin, then I'm sorry and can only forcibly throw the person to the Pillar of Origin.

After handing these to Wang Chao, Lin Shi left the island with Lin Rongxuan, Lin Siyuan, and Qi Yun.
