The wind blew the yellow sand, filling the dry and cracked land.

The scorching sun burned the trees without green leaves in the distance, there were no rivers on the ground, there was no rain or dew in the sky, and the animals turned into corpses to fill up the time.

A man wearing a heavy linen cloak walked forward with a cane. His face was tanned by strong ultraviolet rays, and his eyes were filled with dying light. He stopped, looked at the desolation around him, and let out a long sigh.

.

Hot steam floats between the sky and the earth, with no clouds passing by and no tall buildings covering it.

Because the city has been infected by the virus, people are dying one by one, and the city is desolate.

The remaining people finally recognized the reality, left the civilization built by humans with only food and water, and went to explore a new world.

The man looked back and saw a long queue behind him. People were dying and walking in despair. People kept falling and dying along the way.

People don't even have the energy or mood to cry.

All that remains is a long period of despair...

Suddenly, among the desperate sounds, the howls of wild beasts were heard.

The ground trembled, and the crowd following the man panicked and looked around until a large beast that did not appear in the biology book broke into everyone's sight.

The beast has a skin as hard as armor, a body like an elephant, six legs, and wings like an eagle on its back. It can run and fly, and is extremely fast. It can take away several people in two or three strokes.

It flew into the sky, raised its head and swallowed the person it took away, and the sound of bones being crushed echoed in the empty space.

"The monster is coming, run, run!" The crowd was in panic. They pulled out their weapons and gathered together to fight against the monster.

The man with the crutch looked at the panicked crowd behind him, quickly wrapped his cloak around the crutch, lit it and raised it, shouting to everyone: "Everyone, come here, light the fire, this monster is afraid of fire!"

Everyone gathered together in panic and lit the ignitable items on their bodies, forming a huge fire.

The monsters flying in the sky flapped their wings, trying to extinguish the flames on the ground. The strong wind stirred up wind and sand, and the people on the ground staggered, unable to fully open their eyes.

At this moment, a bigger vibration came from the surface.

People held torches and swayed, and saw a huge pillar quickly penetrating into the sky from the ground. The head of the pillar was a huge mouth, which was full of sharp teeth, even if it could tear apart the hard-skinned

Not to mention monsters.

People watched as the monsters in the sky were swallowed into the mouths by the giant insects underground, chewing them and returning to the ground.

Everyone showed a distraught expression, as if they had experienced returning from hell to the world. Only the man who first raised the torch quickly adjusted his state.

"That's where the monster came from. There may be an oasis over there!" The man pointed in the direction where the monster was running. Since these monsters can survive in an environment without food, it means that there must be an oasis suitable for survival not far away.

If you go in that direction, you will definitely find a place suitable for human survival!

However, compared to hope, despair consumes the will of most people.

"What will happen if we keep going? There is no place suitable for human survival anymore."

"There is no water source, no food, and there are monsters everywhere. What will happen if we find an oasis?"

"..."

…

Some people knelt down and spoke dejected words.

Only that man insisted on moving forward. He held up the flame and walked under the sun, taking those who were still willing to go with him and moving further.

They walked from day to icy night, and the icy night wind blew the extinguishing fire in their hands, tearing apart their dry and cracked skin, leaving behind a fishy smell.

The man braved the cold wind and walked through the darkness, but came to a cliff.

There is no road ahead, only the floating aurora and gravel rolling down the cliff.

Everyone stopped moving forward, letting the flames in their hands gradually extinguish.

There is no way out, there is no soil suitable for survival in this world...

The extinguished fire is hope finally extinguished by despair.

The man took out a projection device from the bag he was carrying. He sat on the edge of the icy cliff and pressed the switch.

A large three-dimensional projection appeared under the night. It was the civilized society of mankind, with high-rise buildings, busy traffic, and bustling cities... In the end, the last power of the projection was exhausted, and all the light disappeared, leaving only an endless long time.
