Chapter 49: The Kind Shanliang

In the western part of Nanjin City, on the bumpy road, a group of people were rushing on the road in fear. From time to time, the roars and roars of starry beasts came from the distance, and occasionally mixed with a few human screams.

Meteors fell from time to time in the dark night sky, and exploded at one end of the horizon. At this time, people in this crowd of people who fled began to tremble, fearing that a meteor would fall on the land they were in the next second.

There were about twenty people in this trek. Except for the three people walking in front of them, wearing normal clothes, the remaining people who were shoulder to shoulder and rushing forward were all wearing criminals' prison uniforms.

"Brother Shan, you are so kind. These guys are death row prisoners. The prison police who say they are just for justice have given up on them. Why should we waste time saving them? It's better to find a few F-level star beasts to earn hero points."

The yellow-haired young man on the left of the three people in front complained dissatisfiedly. He did not deliberately lower his voice, so that this ruthless words fell clearly into the ears of the prisoners who were in the front. The prisoners' faces suddenly became a little ugly, but there was no anger, only fear and worry.

"Death-inmates are also human beings. Before the death penalty is executed, their lives should be respected. We are heroes, and it is our duty to save the victims. Ding Yi, don't mention this matter again." The burly man walking in the middle said with a righteous face.

"Hehe, Shan Liang is right. The three of us are heroes, so how can we compare with those prison guards who abuse prisoners all year round." A woman wearing heavy makeup on the right was close to Shan Liang, and her well-developed chest and abdomen rubbed against Shan Liang's arms from time to time.

Ding Yi curled his lips, looking dissatisfied, but he did not speak again.

Since extremely high temperatures will occur around the surroundings and within a few hundred meters of distance, no planes dare to sway in the air at this time, and most citizens of Nanjin have been evacuated safely during the three-hour escape time, so there are actually not many search and rescue personnel. But there will always be some people who fail to evacuate in time, such as these dozen death row prisoners who were directly abandoned by prison guards. These unfortunate people are generally rescued by heroes.

Shan Liang and the other two originally formed a team to kill some weaker Star Disaster beasts to earn hero points. Meteor showers are an excellent way to improve hero rankings. As long as your luck is not too bad, a high-level meteor falls around them, it will not be too dangerous, because although Star Disaster beasts are violent, they will not chase long-distance targets, and generally speaking, they will only destroy things around them.

The C-class hero who was burned to ashes by Chimera was unfortunately located at the place where Chimera fell and didn't have time to escape.

Ding Yi originally thought that this trip to Nanjin to "support" could kill some F-level star beasts to earn hero points, but he didn't expect that this kind Shan Liang would even save a group of death row prisoners.

Every time the hero ranking increases, the national salary you can get will increase every month. Ding Yi really cannot tolerate wasting time to save the death row prisoner who should have died.

The hero ranking is like sailing against the current, if you don’t advance, you will retreat. Perhaps the heroes who were originally ranked below him have killed several giant star steel beetles, thus surpassing him.

When Ding Yi thought of this possibility, he became anxious and angry, but reason told him that he could not tear his face and leave alone, because the burly man walking in the middle was a strange spirit. If he wanted to kill a star beast of e-level or even above, he needed to use the power of Shan Liang.

......

Due to the damage to the road and the blocking of collapsed buildings, the group did not move forward quickly. In order to avoid the raging starry sky beasts, they often had to take a long way.

The dozen prisoners stayed in prison for a long time, most of them were malnourished. At this time, they were so busy that some people soon became out of breath, but in order to survive, they could only grit their teeth and follow the people in front of them.

At this moment, another meteor fell, crossing the night sky to form a beautiful arc, but such beauty means that another ugly star beast has come to this land.

The criminals looked up at the sky at the same time and confirmed that the meteor had landed in the distance. They breathed a sigh of relief and became even more nervous. They were worried that the three heroes in front of them would leave them alone, and they were afraid that the next meteor would destroy their fantasy of survival.

The more I want to live, the more I fear death.

"Don't worry, we won't leave you."

Shan Liang suddenly turned around, smiled slightly, and shouted at the prisoners: "Because, we are heroes."

Under the night, his smile was as bright as a star, and his voice was like a warm wind, which made people feel at ease.

The criminals lowered their heads, not because of their touch, but because of their disdain in their eyes - heroes? They won't give up? Haha, they are all high-sounding lies!

In the face of death and fear, any justice and kindness will be shattered and distorted, the evil of human nature will occupy consciousness, reason and conscience can be abandoned wantonly in order to survive, and even the lives of other people are cheap things that can be easily discarded.

These criminals have long been involved in crimes. Because they have killed people, they know that people are about to die and will definitely be crazy. They have no expectations for Shan Liang's promise, but they are under the roof, and even if they are disdainful, they will not refute them.

The best choice is to bow your head and not speak at this time.

Shan Liang sighed and stopped talking.

When he reached a fork in the road, Shan Liang waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, then jumped to the high building that had not yet collapsed. He looked at the battle situation in all directions from afar, searched for a moment and found the safest direction to move forward before continuing to lead everyone forward.

"Shan Liang, these death row prisoners are not upright. They not only did not be grateful for the words you said just now, but instead showed a disdainful expression. What is the purpose of our hard work to save them? Is it worth it?"

The woman with heavy makeup beside Shan Liang just observed the expressions of the criminals. She felt quite unhappy and questioned Shan Liang's behavior. However, she was not as direct as Ding Yi. She deliberately lowered her voice, so only the three of them heard this sentence.

Ding Yi immediately echoed: "Brother Shan is so kind, but sometimes kindness is not necessarily correct or just. These death row prisoners have killed people and are not worth our hard work to save them."

When Shan Liang heard this, he was silent for a moment before speaking, "We are heroes."

Isn’t this the most basic thing for heroes to save people from danger?

Shan Liang's face was slightly dark, but his eyes were extremely bright.

"Meteor!" Suddenly a criminal shouted: "Meteor seems to be falling here!"

The three people walking in front changed their faces. They quickly looked up and saw a meteor coming from the distant sky. The burning light was dazzling and it looked extremely hot.

It is falling in the direction they are!
