The world seemed to be in chaos overnight.

The sudden war swept through hundreds of countries, and international conventions were completely torn up. Powerful countries wantonly crossed national borders, invaded small neighboring countries without warning, and launched a blitzkrieg without leaving their hands.

There are many theories about the root cause of the outbreak of the war. The most talked about is the advent of an interstellar civilization, bringing knowledge that subverts the world, but other than that, the public does not know any details.

The attitude of more than a dozen powerful countries to start wars is so resolute, as if they want to smash an old era, do not break or stand, and shuffle the cards.

Within a few months, sixteen small countries were destroyed, and countless people on Seablue Star became war refugees.

As a small country, bordering Ruilan, a strong neighbor, Gelan doesn't have much chance to choose his destiny. In the face of Ruilan's all-out military confrontation, Gelan was completely defeated within a few months, losing all the established armed forces, and allowing Ruilan to be brutally ravaged.

The city was devastated, with charred ruins of buildings everywhere, deep pits were blasted out of the ground, black smoke was still bubbling straight to the sky in some places, and sporadic gunshots sounded from time to time.

The unkempt, ragged Golan refugees wandered among the ruins, hugging in twos and threes.

Sean followed a group of refugees to find supplies in the ruins. He struggled to move his body. His body was covered in dust and mud. He hadn't washed for many days.

Ruilan's invasion came without warning, and only after the ground was wiped out with firepower did he send ground troops to annihilate Golan's armed forces step by step.

During this period, the importance of relocating Golan refugees was not at the forefront. The refugee camp had a capacity limit. Most of the Ruilan troops were used to clean up the resistance forces, but they only blocked the city and did not have much energy to accommodate all the refugees. , at most occasionally drop some supplies by air, so that a large number of Golan refugees can survive in the blocked city.

The city was bombed in the early rounds, and Sean was lucky to survive, but he was separated from Mag and others in the chaos. During these days, he could only team up with another group of refugees to find supplies in the ruins, or It was when Ruilan airdropped aid and competed with other refugees, like a walking corpse, only thinking that it would last a day.

But after these days, countless refugees have searched the city again and again, and there is almost no material in the ruins. Survival has become more and more difficult, approaching the limit, Sean and others are walking in the ruins, everywhere It can be seen that most of the corpses of the Golan refugees who died of starvation, thirst and disease died in recent days.

After going through several ruins, there was still nothing to be gained. Sean was so hungry that he sat down against the wall, gasping for breath, only to feel that his body was extremely heavy, as if he was about to sink into the mud.

"Are you okay? Can you continue to look for supplies?"

Bol, who was beside him, saw him sitting down, so he leaned over and asked out of breath.

He was Sean's new friend in the homeless gang, and they looked after each other and got to know each other well these days.

"I'm so hungry... I don't have the energy..." Sean made a hoarse voice from his throat that was almost on fire with thirst.

"Get up quickly, or others will find something, and you won't have it."

Bol went to grab Sean's arm, but he was also exhausted. When he pulled it, he stumbled, fell to the ground, panting, and the breath he exhaled blew away a small piece of dust.

"Let me slow down, I'm too hungry..."

Bol lost the strength to get up, he simply arched a few times, leaned against the wall, and leaned sideways on Sean.

Sean slumped and almost fell over, but he didn't have the strength to push him away, so he could only close his eyes and hypnotize himself to relieve hunger.

At this time, Bohr suddenly spoke, his tone was low and lost:

"Sean, do you think our army can still come to rescue us?"

"Definitely." Sean opened his eyes with difficulty, his voice weak but firm.

"It's been so long, do you really believe it?" Boll gasped and said hoarsely, "Ruilan is coming, and Gelan is already too busy to take care of himself, how can there be time to save us? It's better to expect Gelan to send troops to rescue us. Count on Ruilan to take refugees on a large scale, so we can at least survive..."

Sean gritted his teeth: "How can you expect the enemy... When they met other refugees before, didn't they say that Rui Lan was cleaning the refugees, and occasionally sent ground troops to capture a group of refugees in the city, and some people said that they had seen Rui Lan once. The Lan refugee camp transported the bodies out for cremation, who knows what happened."

Bol was weak: "As long as you can give me a bite of food, I can do anything..."

At this moment, there was a faint noise not far away, and the people around him, along with Sean and others, and fellow refugees who were searching for the ruins, gathered together, as if something had happened.

Several fellow refugees who were in better condition walked up to the two of them, pulled Sean and Bol up, and asked.

"How about it, can you still go?"

"It's alright..." Sean swayed, leaned against the wall, and wondered, "What's going on over there?"

"We encountered another group of refugees, and everyone went over, lest others get thinking and want to snatch our supplies."

Several people answered and rushed over with Sean and Bol.

There are too many refugee groups lingering in the city. Most of the refugees hold groups to help each other and prevent others from being robbed. Even if everyone is the same refugee, some people can’t live anymore, and they can’t take care of others. People who are on the verge of death They will not let go of any life-saving straw, and it is not uncommon for them to snatch each other and kill each other.

Sean and the others quickly came to the back of the crowd, only to see another small and medium-sized refugee group on the opposite side. They were also thin and gaunt. The two sides were confronting each other, watching each other vigilantly, and in the middle of the two groups of people were their own gangs. Several representatives of the more prestigious here are getting together to negotiate.

Sean glanced at the opposite side, suddenly stunned, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

In another wave of refugee gangs, he saw the figures of Mag and other buddies. Although they were ragged, he recognized them at a glance.

In these days when he was hiding in Tibet, Sean did not miss a few buddies who were separated. Because the ruins of the city were too large, and various communication signals were blocked by Rui Lan, the search was always fruitless. He was always worried about horses. Ge and others encountered unexpected things. I didn't expect to meet by chance today, and they didn't suffer.

"Mag...Mag!"

Sean was so surprised that he didn't care about anything else. He raised his arms and called Mag's name in a hoarse voice.

Due to physical weakness, I couldn't shout too loudly, but it still attracted the attention of some people.

Mag's ears moved not far away, and he cast his eyes in confusion, looking for who was calling his name.

But at this moment, the harsh roar of the engine suddenly sounded, from far to near.

"Thumbs up—"

I saw an armed convoy of Ruilan rampage on the city's severely damaged streets, heading straight towards this side, seemingly locked in position.

"Rui Lan!"

"Run!"

The two refugee gangs were so frightened that they fled in panic and dispersed.

Sean's voice was immediately covered up by the commotion, and Mag turned his head and ran away when his best friend didn't see him. Although Sean wanted to chase after him, he panicked when he saw the Ruilan motorcade approaching fast, so he could only flee with the refugee gang on his side.

At this moment, the Ruilan convoy came to kill in a mighty manner, and groups of fully-armed Ruilan soldiers got out of the car and chased the refugees separately.

At the same time, the armed convoy turned on the loudspeaker and shouted in a deep voice towards the fleeing refugees:

"Stop running away, stop resisting, we will take you to the refugee camp, as long as you are obedient, Ruilan will provide supplies to ensure your survival!"

Some refugees have had enough of this kind of life, and have already supported it to the limit. Hearing the words, they are relieved, and they simply fall to the ground sluggishly.

There were also some refugees who didn't believe Ruilan and continued to run wildly. However, their bodies were exhausted and they couldn't outrun Ruilan's soldiers. They fell to the ground one by one, unable to struggle.

With the help of the refugees behind to delay the steps of Rui Lan's soldiers, Sean almost exerted his strength to feed and ran into the ruins, but his body had reached the limit. Suddenly, I saw the gap between the building fragments, and I simply chose one to go in and prayed to avoid it.

Boll, who was following behind, saw Sean's movements, and he followed suit in panic, and quickly hid in the cracks of the ruins of the building.

Sean only showed half of his face, and looked at the outside world in shock, watching the refugees outside being pushed down one by one. Some of them struggled too fiercely and were directly knocked unconscious by Ruilan soldiers.

As his eyes turned, Sean suddenly saw the figures of Mag and other buddies.

I saw that Mag and others were caught up in the end, and several Ruilan soldiers caught up, smashed the butts of their guns on the cheeks of Mag and others, knocked them to the ground, and quickly completed the subjugation.

Sean was afraid and anxious, and wanted to find a way to save people, but his brain was in chaos and he had no clue. He looked at the fully armed Ruilan soldiers, his heart was seized by fear, his legs were trembling, and he never stepped out. Instead, he shrank into the depths of the crevice, not daring to let out the air.

In the end, he could only watch the blood-stained buddies dragged into the car like dogs were dragged to death by Ruilan soldiers, leaving a few meandering bloodstains on the ground.

Sean's lips were white and shivering.

Never for a moment had he hated his weak self so much that he couldn't do anything.

It didn't take long for the refugees outside who couldn't hide in time to be caught by Ruilan soldiers, and soon a group of soldiers raised their weapons and searched here.

Sean didn't care about worrying about others, he subconsciously covered his mouth and didn't dare to take a deep breath.

At this moment, Bohr, who was also hiding in the gap not far away, came out actively with his hands high, trembling all over, and thumping on the ground, his expression on his face was mixed with fear, anxiety, and hope.

"I...I don't resist!"

Without saying a word, the Ruilan soldier went up to control Bol, acting rudely.

Boll was in pain, and subconsciously turned his head to look at where Sean was hiding.

Sean's brain was stunned, and before he could react, the sound of footsteps approaching outside quickly, a big hand slammed into the crack, grabbed his clothes, and pulled hard.

He couldn't resist the strength of Rui Lan's soldiers at all, and he fell out with a plop. His clothes were still held by his solid arms.

But at this moment, another Ruilan soldier stepped forward quickly, and the butt of the gun quickly enlarged in Sean's eyes.

Boom!

Sean's vision went black and he instantly lost consciousness.

...

After an unknown time, the downed brain gradually restarted, and Sean only felt a splitting headache and a burning pain in his forehead.

Sean opened his eyes with difficulty, only to feel that everything in his sight seemed to have a double image, like a blurry screen.

There was a turbulence around him, he looked around despite the dizziness, and found himself in a moving carriage, surrounded by some captured refugees, with sad faces, familiar faces from the same group, and Mag's group. Unfamiliar refugees, it's just that Mag and other besties are not in this car.

"you're awake?"

Bol was also in the car and rushed over.

Hearing the familiar voice, Sean turned to look at him, his eyes becoming quite complicated.

"You... forget it."

He originally wanted to ask why Bohr took the initiative to expose and hurt himself, but before the words were spoken, he had the answer in his heart, so he didn't ask, just sighed.

But Bol lowered his head, snorted, and said in a low voice: "You understand our situation, it is impossible to escape, and if we continue to wander outside, we will definitely starve to death and be taken away by Rui Lan, it is better than... "

"Needless to say... My head hurts so much, how's it going?" Sean was so flustered that he didn't want to talk about this anymore, so he moved away from the topic.

"There's a lump here, but it's okay, it's not a big injury."

"That's good."

Sean sat up, took a deep breath, slammed into the car window and looked out.

I saw that the convoy had already driven out of the ruined area of ​​the city and came to the original suburbs.

A continuous temporary camp appeared in the distance. It was one of the refugee camps set up by Rui Lan, but in Sean's eyes, it was like the bloody mouth of a beast, waiting for its prey to come.

"Can we survive, right?" Sean said uneasy.

Perhaps because there is no other way to go, Bol seems to have seized the only life-saving straw, leaving only blind trust in his own choice, nodding forcefully:

"As long as you are obedient, you will definitely be able to."
