Chapter 565 Necessary Sacrifice

Seeing the dense crowd of source beasts, most people panicked, and some stopped moving forward.

"Don't worry, the rules on the island are absolute, these source beasts will not attack you."

Lin Shi kept walking towards the source beast herd.

Seeing Lin Shi coming again, the Titan Python spat out snake letters at Lin Shi unkindly.

The crowd hesitated for a moment, and when they saw that the source beast really wouldn't attack Lin Shi, they followed one after another.

Everyone soon saw the Origin Beast's Origin Pillar.

Sure enough, as Lin Shi said, although the source beasts were eyeing them, they did not attack them.

However, everyone was still shocked by the endless and dense source beasts.

Especially when I saw those Origin Beasts going forward one after another and taking the initiative to light up the Pillars of Origin without fear of death.

Even from a distance, people can still see the nostalgia and reluctance for the world in the eyes of those source beasts, as well as their piety and determination.

Even if their positions were different, many people in the crowd still had tears in their eyes at this moment.

Especially when they saw that the pillar of origin had lit up 14 points of light, the hesitation in many people's eyes turned into fear and determination.

"It turns out that this is a battle of survival. As long as it is a human or a source beast, no one can retreat... As long as you lose, you will lose everything..."

Someone muttered absentmindedly.

"Even these beasts understand the truth. Why don't we understand? Is it useful for us to hide now? What will our future generations do? What will happen to our Xia Kingdom's thousands of years of civilization?"

Some people hold their heads and reflect on themselves.

"Anyway, I am a loner in this world. I am so nostalgic in such a cold apocalypse. No matter how long I am, I can't miss you for more than two years!"

Someone made up their mind.

"Hahaha, what a joke! Can I, Li Dazhuang, be worse than a beast? I died a worthy death here, and 18 years later I will be a good man again!"

The middle-aged man who called himself Li Dazhuang turned around and walked back quickly, walking quickly towards the Pillar of Origin of Humanity.

With the first, there is the second.

A strong man also turned around and ran towards the Pillar of Origin while shouting:

"I hope that human beings can still live on this continent thousands of years from now. I hope that our country, Xia, can unify the world. Human civilization continues to flourish. What's wrong with sacrificing me? Hahahaha, here I come, the Pillar of Origin!"

An old man who was over sixty years old wiped his wet eyes. Turning around, he walked firmly towards the pillar of human origin step by step:

"Old man, I'm getting old, and I don't have many years to live anyway, so I'll leave my hope to you young people."

A young man who looked to be no more than 20 years old muttered to himself as he walked towards the original sound:

"This is the first time in my life that I have the opportunity to be a hero. How could such a good thing be missing from me? Mom and Dad, have you seen it in the sky? Your son is going to become a hero of mankind..."

What Lin Shi and others didn't expect was.

With the firm and determined steps and the backs of these people without hesitation.

More and more people turned towards the Pillar of Origin.

These people may cry, laugh, or be determined.

Lin Shi just wanted to use the behavior of the source beast to tell these people that no living creature participating in the battle for survival can retreat.

I didn't expect it to have such a result.

He watched with a complicated expression as these people walked resolutely towards humanity's own Pillar of Origin, and each of them firmly placed their hands on the Pillar of Origin.

Unlike Wang Meng and others who were forced to light up the Pillar of Origin just now, these people had smiles, relief, or no regrets on their faces.

Even among these people who took the initiative to sacrifice, there was a young man who had just turned 18 years old.

Even the other survivors who were noisy at first and were unwilling to light the Pillar of Origin and wanted to escape were all silent.

"Why does it have to come to this point? In this damn world, why is there such a battle for survival!"

Qi Yun punched a dead tree on the side, and the dead wood broke.

It hit a level three wild boar not far away.

The wild boar felt that Qi Yun was provoking him, and kept snoring and glaring at Qi Yun.

"Go back first."

Lin Shi said.

Everyone returned to the pillar of human origin.

At this time, hundreds of corpses were piled around the Pillar of Origin.

On the Pillar of Origin, the second and third light spots have also been lit.

"With this number, we may be able to light up the Pillar of Origin without too many sacrifices, but the speed must be fast."

Wang Chao looked a little sad.

The Pillar of Origin next door has lit up 14 points of light.

"It's not that simple. If I guessed correctly, the more light spots on the Pillar of Origin should be lit, the more source power and vitality need to be absorbed. At the end of the day, maybe one will light up. You need to light up the sum of one in front.”

Wang Chao opened his mouth, wanting to refute Lin Shi, but felt that what Lin Shi said was right.

If hundreds of creatures can light up two, the group of beasts under the Origin Beast's Pillar of Origin are lighting up the Pillar of Origin day and night, and it should have reached dozens long ago.

The conversation between the two did not decrease, and the survivors could hear it.

Someone said in despair: "What if we all die and don't win?"

"If you don't win, you will die. The remaining first- and second-level evolvers will become the rations and food for those high-level source beasts. No human can escape."

Lin Shi sighed in his heart.

It feels like this battle for survival is hellish for humans.

If there is no cornucopia, even he himself will fall into despair.

In fact, after figuring out the rules on the island.

Lin Shi knew that knocking people unconscious or tying them up and throwing them directly to the Pillar of Origin was the fastest and most convenient way.

However, when it came to the moment, Lin Shi couldn't do it.

Lin Shi had his own principles.

Originally, he thought he could be cruel and sacrifice others to save himself.

But when it really came to the time to do such a thing, Lin Shi found that even he couldn't do it.

Among so many humans, most people are not extremely vicious.

Even if he is as cold-blooded as he is, he can't do it when he thinks about forcing tens of millions of people who are harmless to him to light up the Pillar of Origin.

Even if these people become extremely selfish in the end times, he himself is not a selfish person.

He is not a saint, but he is not a murderer.

If he did that, even if he could survive, he would be condemned by his conscience for the rest of his life.

Moreover, if at the end of this battle for survival, when he needs to sacrifice his acquaintances, his friends, and his relatives, will he also sacrifice them?

Speaking of source power and vitality, in fact, no one in the entire human race has more source power and vitality than him.

He himself is selfishly unwilling to sacrifice, so what right does he have to force others?

Lin Shi lowered his eyes and thought about the possibility of human victory.

Despair spread in the crowd.

"Forget it, I will die sooner or later, so it's better to die now."

A thin middle-aged man walked out with his head down. He came to Wang Chao and said with a pleading look:

"Commander Wang, my name is Li Xuecheng. There are my wife and a son who was born last year in the base. Can you please, after I die, don't let others bully them. They are orphans and widows, and I am worried about them."

The man's eyes were vicissitudes, with reluctance and attachment to his relatives, and despair deep in his eyes.

Wang Chao knew what the man was going to do. He wanted to stop him, but the words finally turned into a sentence:

"Okay."

The man named Li Xuecheng smiled gratefully, lowered his head and walked towards the Pillar of Origin.
