Tang Zhen looked at Morris, who was also nervous next to him, and asked in a slightly solemn tone.
When Morris heard this, he quickly explained.
"Sir, our neighbor has been attacked by a radiation mutant monster, and the current situation may be very dangerous!"
When he said this, there was obviously a hint of worry in Morris' tone.
When the Dark Day arrives, the sky and the earth become pitch black, making it impossible to see anything with the naked eye.
But in this special environment, the radiation-mutated monsters seem to be unaffected. They come and go like the wind in the darkness, trying to destroy all normal creatures, and abandoned people are the first to bear the brunt.
In order to prevent being targeted by monsters during extremely dark days, abandoned people will hide their caves very carefully and try their best to deal with the traces left by their daily activities. No matter how careful they are, they will never be too careful.
The group of abandoned people on the opposite side must have done the same thing, but something went wrong, so they were targeted by the radiation mutant monster, and the lives of the group were in danger!
Facing the crazy radiation monster, the seemingly solid stone wall cannot hold on for long. Once it is attacked into the cave, the final end will be very tragic!
"What should we do? Do you want to help them?"
Some abandoned people asked, but were immediately met with strong opposition from their companions.
"How can we help? Once we go out, it is very likely that the radiation monsters will be attracted. Not only will they not be able to survive, but we will not be able to escape either!"
"Then what should we do? Just watch them die?"
"So what if it's not like this? Are we going to put our lives on the line just to save someone who is about to die?"
"But...hey...!"
The dispute came to an end in a very short period of time. Although they couldn't bear it, no one could rescue an outsider who was not very close to him at the risk of his own life and that of his companions.
Once you really make such a choice, it is definitely not heroic, but selfish and irresponsible!
So although there were endless screams and calls for help outside, mixed with the roars of radiation monsters, Uncle Jim and others in the cave could only sigh and were unable to provide any help.
Tang Zhen turned his head and looked in the direction of the cave entrance, with a dull look mixed with a hint of indifference, because the life and death of the abandoned people outside had nothing to do with him either.
But no one expected that Tang Zhen would stand up when the matter had nothing to do with him.
"Maurice, can you bear to watch those neighbors die?"
Tang Zhen suddenly turned his head and looked at Morris, who was holding a sword beside him and trembling slightly, and asked in a light tone.
"Sir, I actually want to help them, but that may cost Uncle Jim and his friends their lives, so I know what I should do?"
Morris hesitated for a moment and whispered to Tang Zhen.
"You know what to do, but do you think that standing by and doing nothing is the right choice?"
"Then can you guarantee that these monsters will not turn against you after killing all your neighbors?"
Morris was stunned when he heard this, his brows knitted together, and he said in an uncertain tone: "Probably not, we have processed the traces very clean, and the radiation monster will not find it..."
"Don't your neighbors do this, and according to my observation, they do it more carefully than you do, but what is the result?
So now you are just taking chances and hoping that the radiation monster will not find you, which is actually equivalent to gambling with your life!"
Tang Zhen's tone was very calm, even with a hint of ruthlessness, which made Uncle Jim and others' expressions change slightly.
"Sir, what exactly are you going to say?"
As the leader of this group of abandoned people, Uncle Jim was undoubtedly the most nervous person present. After hearing what Tang Zhen said, he finally couldn't help but ask.
"What I mean is, instead of just waiting for death, it's better to rush out and kill the monster!
Not only does this help others, it also helps yourself, so why not?"
"Of course, this has nothing to do with kindness. It's just a more effective way to protect yourself under special circumstances. Sometimes it's better to take the initiative than wait for fate to be pronounced!"
When Uncle Jim heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Sir, what you said makes sense, but the problem is that we don't have the strength to do this. If we go out rashly, we will die!
We choose to watch indifferently, but it is actually out of helplessness, otherwise who would let the radiation monster wreak havoc?"
When the other abandoned people heard this, they all sighed.
Tang Zhen nodded slightly, looked at Uncle Jim and said: "I understand how you feel, so next you need to make a choice, either I will take you to save the neighbors and kill the radiation monster, or we will just sit here and gamble.
Those radiation monsters will leave you alone.
But if that time comes, I will probably not help, because the only person I can help is Maurice. As for you people, in my opinion, there is no difference between you and those neighbors!"
When Uncle Jim heard this, he couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat. He didn't have the guts to ask Tang Zhen why he forced them to make a choice. Under normal circumstances, this would be almost the same as committing suicide!
Tang Zhen was right. The possibility of them being attacked by monsters was indeed only half. If the monsters didn't target them, then everything would be easy. At most, they would lose a group of neighbors.
But if the monster turns around and deals with them, the result will be death!
But because of Tang Zhen's existence, the abandoned people now have one more choice, which is to follow him to rescue their neighbors and at the same time kill all the radiation monsters they are afraid of!
Although I don’t know why Tang Zhen forced them to make a difficult choice, after putting aside their worries and killing the radiation monster, just thinking about it makes people’s blood boil!
Uncle Jim would naturally not doubt Tang Zhen's strength. Since he dared to say such words, it meant that he was sure of escaping unscathed.
"Uncle Jim, I think since we have Mr.'s help, we should give it a try!"
Morris waved the sword in his hand and said to Uncle Jim, with a hint of expectation and fighting spirit in his eyes.
"How about it, how do you decide?"
Tang Zhen looked at Uncle Jim with a half-smile, and asked in an unhurried voice.
"Sir, why are you doing this? This really makes me feel embarrassed!"
Uncle Jim shook his head slightly, stood up from the ground, and slowly pulled out his machete polished with iron sheets.
After looking around, Uncle Jim finally looked at Tang Zhen, gritted his teeth and said: "Maurice and I have weapons in our hands and can go out with you. As for the stone weapons in the hands of others, they can't penetrate the bast of the radiation monster at all, so
Better stay in the cave!"
Upon hearing this, Morris stood up from the ground with excitement, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the cave, trying to remove the stone blocking the door.
Seeing this, other abandoned people also expressed their intention to go out and help deal with the radiation monsters, but they were sternly refused by Uncle Jim.
When he and Morris went out, even if they couldn't kill the radiation monster, they could still escape safely under Tang Zhen's protection. But if everyone went out, if there was a dangerous situation, he would not come to the rescue at all.
"Now that we've made up our mind, let's go out now. I hope there's still enough time!"
Tang Zhen stood up slowly, walked to the entrance of the cave, and removed the stones at the entrance with a wave of his hand.
A world as dark as ink immediately appeared in front of everyone's eyes, like a bottomless abyss, which seemed to be able to swallow people up at any time.
Seeing the darkness outside the cave entrance, the abandoned people subconsciously took two steps back, with nervous expressions on their faces.
The fear of the Darkest Day has been deeply rooted in their hearts since they were young, and the various horror legends related to darkness have never given them the courage to boldly walk out of their hiding place during the Darkest Day.
