The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 149 Survivor

———Croydon, inside a castle
Decades of vicissitudes have made this castle, which was once a tourist attraction, a little dilapidated due to disrepair.

However, in this wasteland reduced to ashes, a sturdy and durable stone castle that can withstand severe cold is one of the few 'homes' that can give survivors a sense of security.

Da~da~da~
"Dig quickly, everyone, we must dig out one before winter comes"

Located in the depths of the castle, dozens of survivors are constantly digging tunnels under the leadership of a middle-aged man.

From the numb expressions on the faces of these survivors, it is not difficult to see that they have long lost hope for their future life, but their desire to survive drives them to keep digging.

They have to dig a cave that is safe enough until they can escape the attacks of the monsters outside and survive the cold winter.

The leading middle-aged man looked at these hard-working people with satisfaction, and then picked up the iron pick to join in the digging.

He and the engineer have calculated that the surrounding stone walls and water pipes are enough to withstand the high temperature of 1200 degrees, allowing them to survive the severe winter.

As long as we can persevere, human beings will be able to defeat these monsters!

"Quinn, Quinn!"

Suddenly, a guard on guard entered the tunnel with a rifle and shouted to the middle-aged man who was busy digging:
"Eddie is crazy again, he wants to take people to pick the fruit in the orchard!"

"Damn it, he's going to ruin us all!"

Hearing that someone was going to pick off their few fruits, the man named Quinn hurriedly gave the pickaxe in his hand to the young man beside him, and then ran out of the tunnel.

Those are used to store grain for the winter, and half of them are immature. Picking them now is tantamount to killing the chicken and picking the eggs!
After arriving at the garage outside the castle, Quinn saw a bald man with several women and children preparing to get into the car, so he hurried forward and scolded:
"Hey, what are you guys doing!"

Hearing Quinn's angry roar, Eddie, who was saying goodbye to the children, turned around and responded naturally:

"I'm taking someone to the orchard, and you can't stop me, Quinn."

"No, as we have said before, more than half of the fruits are still immature, and without seeds, we will not be able to plant seeds next season!"

"I'm afraid we won't be able to survive the next season, and we'll all starve to death!"

Looking at Eddie's face full of anger, Quinn suppressed the anger in his heart, pulled out the key from the car and retorted:
"How could it be impossible? As long as we are united, we will be able to survive longer than those monsters!"

"Children can't eat hope, Quinn, I have been following your advice for eight years, but the result?

My wife and two children died on the road, I don't want to lose my only child, give me the key! "

Looking at Eddie with red eye circles in front of him, the surrounding guards and residents also fell silent. It has been 28 years, who can live to this day without losing his family?

Quinn looked at the young girl behind Eddie, he couldn't help hesitating, but when he thought of the dozens of children in the castle, he said ruthlessly:
"Even if this is the case, Eddie, I will keep the key, and you are not allowed to call the orchard again!"

After a fierce quarrel, Quinn took the car keys and left the warehouse, which was his responsibility as the leader.

Watching Quinn's figure gradually go away, the pleading in Eddie's eyes was gradually replaced by a ray of coldness. He didn't mind sacrificing others for the sake of his own child's survival!

After returning to the castle, Quinn put the key in his room, and then continued to return to the tunnel, leading the residents to continue digging the tunnel.

Winter is coming, he has too many things to be busy, not to mention the help of the lighthouse guards, he is not worried that Eddie will take people away.

However, if nothing else, accidents will always happen:

Call ~
In the middle of the night, Quinn was lying on the bed enjoying a moment of tranquility, but the constant whistling wind outside the window made him feel uneasy.

Like ah, so much alike!

For a while, Quinn couldn't help recalling the scene when he first encountered those monsters:

20 years ago, on a sunny morning, he was heading to the current construction site after receiving the notice of tuition price increase, and was discussing tuition fees with his mother who was busy digging ancient ruins.

However, a group of ancient behemoths who fell asleep for unknown reasons were awakened by the sound of construction machines and burned all the workers present to death.

That was the first time he saw those terrifying monsters:

The long claws that are as sharp as a sickle can easily tear the excavator in half, and the huge body can crush the construction vehicle, not to mention the flames that can melt steel!
The garrison in London quickly eliminated the first monster that rushed out of the pit with missiles and artillery fire, but before they were happy, they were horrified to see thousands of monsters pouring out of the mine pit!

They are like the shadows hidden in the deepest part of the world. Every time they wake up from a deep sleep, they will turn everything in the world into ashes.

They feed on ashes, and the most terrifying thing is their super reproductive ability. Even if various countries use nuclear weapons, they cannot compete with their super reproductive ability.

Every time a monster is killed, human beings have to pay the casualties of hundreds of compatriots, and there are millions of such monsters in the world!
Twenty years have passed, and all remaining human beings can only live under the shadow of monsters, shivering in the face of this despair.

But with the scarcity of food, those monsters have begun to cannibalize each other. As long as they can outlast the monsters, one day, the world will return to the embrace of human beings!
Call ~
Another gust of cold wind blew by, and Quinn woke up from his nightmare in fright. After confirming the safety of the castle, he couldn't help getting up and going to the stove, ready to make a cup of hot tea to warm his body.

Da-da-da-

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound from the dotting device at the head of the bed, followed by harsh sirens from the entire castle!
Quinn, who was pouring tea, shrank his pupils, hurriedly dropped the teapot and rushed out the door, shouting to those adults who also rushed out of the room:

"Take the kids to the basement, remember to keep order and don't mess up, move fast!"

"Quinn, in the orchard!"

Just when Quinn was about to pick up the child and go to the basement, a woman suddenly stopped him, and said with tears in her eyes:

"I'm sorry, Eddie took someone sneaking to the vegetable garden last night, he warned me not to tell you, but..."

"Prepare the fire engine! Everyone, go to the garage and assemble!"

As soon as the words fell, Quinn hurriedly led people to run towards the garage, preparing to go to the orchard to save people.

It's not because of how important Eddie is, but because if the monsters notice Eddie, their food for the winter will be gone!
