Chapter 148 The Flood Is Coming
Zhang Shi took a deep breath, pushed Zhao Feng back onto his seat, and then ordered all the soldiers present to stand up, speaking categorically.
"You are not wrong, let alone guilty. The guilty ones are the outsiders who invaded our territory. I, Zhang Shi, am here to promise you that one day, I will definitely crush the Brotherhood and the Dragon and Tiger Alliance, and repay today's revenge a hundred times. !”
When the soldiers heard what Zhang Shi said, they were so excited that their eyes were red. Zhang Yiling, who was lying on the bed for treatment, suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.
"I am willing to die for the lord!"
Seeing this, the other soldiers also responded.
"I am willing to die for the lord!"
Suddenly, all the soldiers, regardless of whether they were busy or idle, had experienced combat or not, were aroused and expressed their loyalty to Zhang Shi.
Zhang Shi nodded with satisfaction, calmed down the emotions of the soldiers, and thought about how to get the coordinates of the coalition forces so that he could attack the coalition forces.
Suddenly, there was another thunder in the sky, and the already alarming rain became even heavier. There was a "pop" sound from the roofs of the stone houses. Some stone houses were even overwhelmed and collapsed. There were no casualties at all.
Zhang Shi quickly walked out of the house, only to find that the entire courtyard of the shelter had been soaked in water. The enclosed wall was like a pond, and the rainwater had accumulated to a high level, covering his calves.
"No, it's a flood!"
Ge Dalong exclaimed, and Zhang Shi was still a little confused. He was obviously a plain, where did the flood come from? When he turned around, he saw a large black flood coming from the direction of the mine, mixed with mud and broken trees. The branches, like wild horses running wild, rush down from the direction of the mine with thundering force, with a roar like landslides and earth cracking, swallowing up all living creatures and natural creations along the way.
In the black torrent, there were not only mud and broken wood, but also gravel and slag carried by the torrent. They drew deadly arcs in the air, like flying arrows on the battlefield, striking mercilessly along the way. Every inch of land, every building.
Zhang Shi's face instantly became extremely serious. He realized that the shelter's defense capabilities were simply unable to fight against such a large-scale natural disaster. It was time for him to make a decision.
As the flood approached, the soldiers in the shelter were a little panicked. They were beings generated by the system of the wilderness world, and they were more in awe of natural disasters than survivors.
Zhang Shi knew that he could not let this emotion spread, and immediately issued an order to organize the soldiers to evacuate to higher ground. However, the speed of the flood was far beyond their imagination, as if there was an invisible force pushing it, approaching every minute.
"Quick, get on top of the wall!"
Zhang Shi's voice seemed extremely weak in the wind and rain, but his resolute eyes were like a beacon, guiding everyone in the direction forward, and the soldiers took action quickly. However, the power of the flood was beyond imagination. It easily broke through the makeshift embankment and flooded the originally sturdy shelter in an instant. The stone houses were crumbling under the impact of the flood, and some were directly washed away and turned into pieces of rubble, which was ruthlessly swept away by the torrent. In the rain curtain, people could only see each other's blurred figures, struggling to move forward under the raging floods.
In the sky, there were dark clouds, lightning and thunder, as if even the heavens were mourning for this disaster. Wherever the flood passed, there was a mess. The once-vibrant fields turned into swamps, and the majestic and sturdy fortresses turned into isolated islands. All lives were devastated, and mourning was everywhere.
In this battle with the power of nature, the insignificance and powerlessness of human beings are fully exposed.
Seeing that his hard work was ruined, Zhang Shi was extremely bitter in his heart, but he had no choice but to put some movable resources and buildings into his backpack through the territory control module to minimize losses as much as possible.
The heavy rain was still raging and the floods were still hitting the shelter. Ge Dalong came to Zhang Shi and just looked at him without saying a word.
Zhang Shi knew it was too late and it was time to make his own decision again.
"Lao Ge, take out the Ark."
Seeing that Zhang Shi had made a decision, Ge Dalong smiled happily and comforted him.
"As long as we keep the green hills, we don't have to worry about running out of firewood. We have a lot of resources at our disposal. It's only a matter of time before we make a comeback."
Ge Dalong's words were like a shot in the arm, which made the haze in Zhang Shi's heart dissipate a little. He nodded, with firm eyes, turned around and shouted to the soldiers: "Don't panic, everyone, we already have a countermeasure! Lao Ge, you immediately organize everyone to board the ark, we must get out of here as soon as possible!"
Ge Dalong acted quickly. He directed the soldiers to board the huge ark that had been prepared in an orderly manner. The ark was large and strong enough to accommodate all the people and their necessary supplies. Under the command of Ge Dalong, the soldiers quickly moved the supplies and equipment they could carry onto the ark, while supporting their injured companions.
The giant sunflower was dragged by the vines and climbed onto the ark, placing its flowers and leaves on the mast. Wu Qing also abandoned some soil and plants that could not be taken away, and even the tree house was abandoned there.
Zhang Shi stood on the deck of the ark, looking at the flood-ravaged land in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew very well that this disaster was not only a major blow to the shelter, but also a severe test of the will and belief of all survivors. This time, no one knows how many survivors will lose their lives in the flood. Even if they survive, , the subsequent life will not be the same as before. It can be said that this flood is a major reshuffle of the wilderness world.
As all the soldiers boarded the Ark, Ge Dalong started the Ark's power system. The Ark slowly moved forward under the push of the flood, gradually moving away from the shelter that was once full of vitality and hope. Zhang Shi stood at the bow, looking forward with a firm gaze. He knew that they must find a safe place as soon as possible, and rebuild the shelter as soon as the flood receded.
During the voyage of the Ark, Zhang Shi constantly monitored the surrounding environment and weather changes through the territory control module. But the lightning and thunder in the sky never stopped, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, changing from a rain curtain to a water column. Zhang Shi felt as if there was an ocean above their heads, bearing the impact of rain every moment.
The flood continued to hit the Ark, but the Ark was like a huge turtle, moving steadily forward in the waves of the flood. Zhang Shi and the soldiers held their weapons and supplies tightly. They knew that although this disaster brought them huge losses, it also made them more united and strong.
Soon, night fell, and the Ark was still sailing in a vast ocean. The entire wilderness world seemed to have turned into a water world in an instant. Nothing could be seen except the endless, dark water. The zombie beasts that attacked and invaded the shelter last night also disappeared without a trace, as if they had known in advance that the flood was coming and hid somewhere to avoid it.
