Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 99
Chapter 99: Chaos
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“Kyaaa!”
“Helppp!”
Through the window glass, Sophia could see the chaos behind them and many people were killed by the magic beasts’ claws.
It was tragic.
And this scene told Sophia that humans’ life was really cheap.
There were so many people dying every single day but there was nothing that they could do.
“Hold on!”
“Yes!”
*bark* *woof!*
“Melly, don’t be naughty.” Sophia held her dog, Melly, tightly and didn’t let her go at all. She didn’t want to lose her dog and if Melly were to go out, it was estimated that there might be some people who would take advantage of the situation and killed her dog for their food.
Right now, there were still many people who have enough food because the earthquake had only happened some time ago.
But in the future?
How many people would die just to find food?
Sophia held Melly tightly and patted her dog, trying to comfort it. Melly barked once more and then snuggled close to Sophia as if doing so could give it the greatest comfort.
…
Another Place
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“These magic beasts are simply endless!”
“Get out of here!”
There were many people scolding, but they were still fighting to deal with these magic beasts in front of them as much as possible.
As for how they managed to get the guns?
There were many ways.
Not many people in their nation were able e to own guns before. But now that the situation had changed, there were more and more people who could get it through one way or another.
From having it before, scavenging, stealing, to robbing others. No matter what, there were many things that happened.
“Victoria, are you alright?” Victoria’s father looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and frowned. They planned to go out to reach City A Base quickly, but this situation seemed to tell them that this was highly impossible.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Victoria looked at the scene in front of her and then looked at her sister, Valeria. At this moment, Valeria was huddling with her mother. The two of them looked like they were going to face the end of the world.
Victoria’s eyes flashed for a moment and then she said, “Father, how about if we split up with mother and follow the second military.”
“What are you talking about?” Victoria’s mother frowned.
Valeria also glared at her sister. “Do you want to take more resources? Let me tell you, it’s not possible!”
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
When talking about resources, Valeria was highly protective and would do everything she could to protect these little food.
Their family was not prepared for this chaotic environment will last, so she wanted to keep as much food as possible.
Victoria’s eyes revealed faint mockery. In the face of food and her own interest, Valeria would always stand forward. Moreover, whatever good things she has, Valeria would definitely try to take it.
“Don’t worry. I have no interest in your little stash.”
The amount of food that Valeria could take was limited and Victoria had already seen what was there. There was no need for her to specifically steal something that belonged to Valeria.
It would be better for her to go out and search for food herself.
“Hmph! You better not.” Valeria was furious when Victoria said that it was a little stash. But at the same time, she herself also knew that the amount of food that she had was not much.
After all, none of them were prepared for a catastrophe to happen.
In this situation, how could they be prepared to face what would happen to them?
So the amount of food that they prepared was only a little bit. For anything else, they would need to try to exchange it with others or buy it from the base. Of course, the premise would be that they managed to buy them.
If they didn’t manage to protect themselves, it was estimated that they would never be able to even start a trade.
In any case, Victoria didn’t care about this sister of hers.
So greedy and lazy…
Even if she managed to survive the first stage, Victoria highly doubted that Valeria would be able to live long.
“I’m going.”
“Victoria!” Victoria’s father looked at his stubborn daughter and felt headache. He glared at his wife and said, “You should have stopped her.”
“What can I do with that stubborn daughter?” Victoria’s mother snorted. “You can go and take care of your daughter. I’ll stay here with Valeria and go with the first army.”
There were so many people here that the army would have difficulties bringing them all back to the base.
So it was decided that they would go in two waves. The first army will go first, so many people were rushing to go with the first army to the base.
They felt that it would have been safer for them to go to the official base. There would be many people, such as the military, to protect them. Rather than staying in this place where there were so many magic beasts around and the people were scattered, it would be better to stay in the base.
People like Victoria who came to the second army directly were rare.
“Victoria, don’t make trouble.” Victoria’s father jogged to his daughter and saw his daughter looking at the wall temporarily made by the soldiers to block the magic beasts’ advance.
In order to stop these magic beasts, the soldiers were working hard.
Their weapons were naturally the guns and so on.
After all, there were still not many magic warriors in the entire world. After Peter came to the Martial Arts Association, he could only help to a certain degree and then refused to come forward anymore.
His knowledge was limited.
And being a warrior was not something that could be done overnight.
So the number of warrior after a short few months was very few.
It was far from enough to deal with these magic beasts.
