Chapter 764: Chapter 764 Missing It Means a Lifetime

They had a glimmer of hope more than those worlds that were destroyed in silence.

Even though this hope was faint, he would never give up until the very last moment, and he believed that everyone standing here today felt the same unwillingness to give up.

"Give me one."

A familiar voice suddenly sounded beside him.

Tang Zelin turned his head to the side and saw Shen Han. Without saying much, he reached into his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it over.

Shen Han didn’t stand on ceremony, taking the pack, sliding out one for himself, then handing the rest back to Tang Zelin, and lit his cigarette with the flame in Tang Zelin’s hand.

He took a deep drag and then exhaled.

Standing shoulder to shoulder with Tang Zelin, he watched everyone.

It was only after half the cigarette had burned down that Shen Han spoke up, "I always thought I was not much different from you, but now it seems I was wrong."

Tang Zelin glanced at him and turned back around.

He flicked the ash off his cigarette, a slight smile on his lips, "Sometimes, a miss can indeed last a lifetime."

Sadness flickered in Shen Han’s eyes as he brought the cigarette back to his lips.

After a long time, using the hand that held his cigarette, he pointed ahead, "What are our chances of success with just the people we have here?"

"The difference between zero and one hundred, it’s either life or death," Tang Zelin said.

Silence fell between the two once again.

Former rivals, now "comrades-in-arms."

It seemed there was always some sort of connection between the two of them.

After a long period of calm, Shen Han finally accepted the fact that he had been summoned to face the reality of Su Shu and Tang Zelin.

Seeing Su Shu here, his heart leapt violently, but the surroundings soon cooled his overheated brain.

It was as if he was meeting another Su Shu.

Or rather, it was the first time he was seeing another side of Su Shu, a side that Tang Zelin seemed to have grown accustomed to. What did that imply?

He couldn’t help but mock himself. In Su Shu’s heart, he and Tang Zelin were truly different.

Why had he ever let go of her hand?

But now, all the questions in his heart, the unwillingness, no longer mattered.

Yet there was one thing he believed he had in common with Tang Zelin.

They both wished to successfully save a world on the brink of destruction and ensure the safety of the women they loved.

Shen Han’s change was subtle, but Tang Zelin was keenly aware of it.

"Let’s give it our all," Tang Zelin extended his hand first, generously suggesting.

Shen Han looked down at the extended hand, then reached out, lifted his head, his gaze resolute, "Together."

"How are you feeling?"

After spending some time outside, Su Shu asked Ji Dong about his physical condition.

Ji Dong, wearing a special mask, responded with his deep voice, "Not bad, I don’t feel uncomfortable anywhere for now."

As the first "guinea pig" to be tested, Ji Dong only understood the other side of this world’s cruelty when he came out from the space.

In City C, from above ground to underground, no matter how dire the circumstances, none compared to the shock he felt at what he now saw.

Only at this moment did Ji Dong soberly realize what the true arrival of the apocalypse meant.

Everywhere he looked, there was a boundless, lifeless despair.

Fear was omnipresent. When even the air we breathe becomes a luxury.

Su Shu said, "Originally, nothing could survive here. Seeing you’re doing well, it seems that the system can summon people who can endure for a while."

Ji Dong wanted to try removing his mask, but Su Shu was a bit concerned.

"I’ll give it a try."

"All right."

This outing was, after all, to test what works and what doesn’t for everyone else’s actions, so Su Shu did not stop him.

Ji Dong reached up and removed his mask.
