Doomsday Online: Supreme Blessing-Chapter 117: The Path of Heaven Propers! the Human Race Shall Be Eternal!

This place seemed to have turned into a bloody meat grinder.

In a gap between the Undead creatures and the aberrated spider monsters, a team of 100 or so people was still resisting the monsters stubbornly.

These [Doomsday Online] players’ auras weren’t weak. The vast majority of them were Stage Three powerhouses, and the few people in the lead had even reached Stage Four.

Of course, the weak wouldn’t be able to stay standing until now in this situation.

But at this moment, this team was clearly on the verge of collapse. Most of the people were injured, and monsters surrounded them.

The Spiderhumans’ neighs and the Undead creatures’ roars resounded in everyone’s ears.

Under such circumstances, faint despair appeared on almost everyone’s faces.

Some cried in pain, and some angrily cursed.

“There are monsters all around. We are surrounded by them!”

“Damn the Black Dragon Gang!”

...

“Chief Zhao, Brother Rong is about to pass away!” a young man anxiously shouted with a faint cry in his words.

Zhao Yongkang—the No Retreat Army’s leader, who was fighting with the monsters—suddenly gritted his teeth and cut apart the body of a Stage Three Undead with a single swing of the blade.

He ignored the sweat dripping from his forehead and hurriedly came forward to check Zhou Rong’s injuries.

Zhao Yongkang and Zhou Rong were comrades-in-arms, and both were retired soldiers of the old world.

When the apocalypse descended, they fought through life and death together several times against the Undead monsters.

They also made a promise to wipe out all of the Undead monsters and rebuild the human homeland together.

Zhao Yongkang naturally didn’t wish for this brother of his to die.

Zhou Rong was currently lying in a young man’s arms and receiving treatment. He had a square and firm-looking face, but his face was green at this moment, and his breath was weak.

There was a terrible wound on his chest that cut apart his ribs, revealing his internal organs.

The flesh and blood around the wound had also turned black. The blood flowing out had a tinge of green in it—very obvious that he had also suffered some unknown infection!

The young man’s hands were shining with bright white light filled with vitality, but it wasn’t able to stop Zhou Rong’s life from flowing away.

Zhao Yongkang grabbed Zhou Rong’s large palm and said solemnly, “You must persevere! Little Wang will save you!”

Zhou Rong pursed his pale lips and spoke with difficulty. “Don’t waste your energy. I know I’m going to die soon. Those spider monsters inflicted this wound, and it will cause an aberrated change in my body... When I can’t hold on anymore, you must kill me immediately. I don’t want to become one of those monsters that are neither human nor ghost!”

“Stop talking.” Zhao Yongkang’s eyes were red as he said, “Save your energy; you will definitely survive. Didn’t we agree that we will wipe out these monsters together?”

Sorrow flashed in Zhou Rong’s eyes. “I’m afraid I won’t see that day... but the path of heaven will prosper, and the human race shall be eternal. These monsters... They won’t overpower us for too long.”

“Yongkang, it doesn’t matter if I die. The most important thing is the safety of the elderly, children, and the majority of the common people. Have they all evacuated?”

Even when he was on the verge of death, Zhou Rong was still most concerned about the safety of the weak. This man had engraved the need to protect the weak in his soul.

Zhao Yongkang said solemnly, “Don’t worry. I have sent Luo Haoyue and some old brothers to evacuate the people. For every extra second that we hold these monsters here, they will have more hope of leaving this place and surviving in this apocalypse!”

“Okay... that’s good.” Zhou Rong exhaled. His expression completely relaxed as if he had no regrets left.

But as his spirit slackened, the tiredness from the battle and the pain and weakness caused by his serious injuries surged up.

As his spiritual defense was defeated, pollution and degeneration in his body broke out in an instant!

“Huff huff!” Wild and heavy beast-like pants sounded, and a lot of squirming lumps appeared all over Zhou Rong’s body!

With a pained expression on his face, Zhou Rong broke free from the No Retreat Army’s Priest and yelled with difficulty, “Quick... kill me!”

Zhao Yongkang, the No Retreat Army’s leader, gritted his teeth so hard that he almost broke them. However, he still raised the sword in his hand. “Old Zhou, go well!”

The words fell, and the light of the blade flashed past.

Most of Zhou Rong’s body—which was undergoing an aberrated change—was cut into minced meat. He then landed on the ground heavily, completely dead.

The surrounding soldiers all went silent at this moment.

Zhao Yongkang resolutely turned around with red eyes. He faced the rushing Undead and the aberrated Spiderhumans with a sad expression, and his eyes were filled with endless anger.

Scenes of his memories with Zhou Rong flashed in his mind.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, the two hugged each other for warmth, struggling to survive.

After awakening their profession and leveling up, they gathered the people, established an army, and vowed to protect their homeland.

Zhou Rong’s rough man words seemed to linger in his ears: “The moment we wear the military uniform, it’s a lifetime thing. Retired soldiers are also soldiers!”

“Protect our homeland; kill all those undead sons of b*tches! Prioritize the evacuation of low-leveled people and children, who have no ability to protect themselves. They are the seed of fire for humankind!”

...

“Is this what the apocalyptic world is like?” Zhao Yongkang angrily roared in his heart as he glared at the monsters that were ocean-like in numbers.

He raised the blade in his hand high and shouted with all of his might, “Those who still have strength, charge with me! The longer we persevere, the more hope for those evacuating!”

“We shall fight to the death in exchange for the eternality of humanity!”

All of the No Retreat Army’s soldiers were moved, and all of them clenched the weapons in their hands tightly, shouting non-stop.

“Fight to the death!”

“Fight to the death!”

“No Retreat Army—rather die than retreat!”

...

Amidst the shouting, Zhao Yongkang led the 100-plus No Retreat Army soldiers and charged into the monsters.

At this moment, Link’s group—which had just arrived—happened to hear those heroic and sonorous shouts as well!

Link’s heart trembled. How similar this scene was to the one in his previous life.

In the previous life, it was also Zhao Yongkang—the leader of No Retreat Army—who led a group of elite soldiers to fight to the death instead of retreating. This gave the opportunity for most of the people to escape to the wilderness.

After living a second life, Link naturally wouldn’t let this tragedy repeat itself.

He communicated with Yuna via his thoughts and asked her to use her air superiority to support the No Retreat Army’s remnants as soon as possible.

At the same time, Link activated [Holy Charge] without hesitation!

The golden light flowed out from the [King’s Sword], making Link shine like a god!

Like a golden sword, Link fiercely charged at the sea of monsters in front of him.

Along the way, the Undead creatures and the aberrated Spiderhumans were all crushed by the wildly dancing sword energy!

Qiao Ruowei and Luo Xingyao followed Link closely, killing the monsters with their arrows and cold dagger!

In the monsters’ encirclement, Zhao Yongkang panted heavily. He had almost exhausted his stamina, but the monsters in front of him were still like a vast ocean—there was no end in sight.

Unwillingness surged in his heart.

At this moment, a golden energy ball of holy light crashed down like a meteor falling from the sky!

A large group of monsters was incinerated by the holy light!

This scene caused everyone in the No Retreat Army to be dazed for a while, their faces full of surprise!

They looked up at the Seraphim in the sky.

The holy halo emitting from Yuna’s body and her perfect beauty caused many people’s eyes to become slightly dazed. Thoughts of worship even appeared in their minds.

“Is this an angel?”

“Have angels come to protect us?”

But someone soon recognized Yuna and said, “This should be the summoned creature of Unfallen City’s City Master Link. They have probably come to help!”

“We have reinforcements?!” The No Retreat Army soldiers’ spirits instantly shook!
