Lord of End of World Chapter 81

After Lin Wenbo took Gong Lixin away, Song Haoran stood at his doorway for a long time before he gradually returned to Earth. Recalling his violent behaviour from before, his fists banged against the wall as he began hating himself to the point of wanting to kill himself.
For more than a year, he had infiltrated the boy's heart's defense bit by bit, wanting to occupy the most special place in his heart, and then the two would naturally be together. Today, in a moment of impulse, he ruined it.
Lixin must've been frightened? How would he treat him? Would he hate him and alienate him? Song Haoran didn't dare to think about it any more. He tossed and turned all night, having a sleepless night.
For the next few days, he avoided meeting with Gong Lixin for fear of seeing his face full of disgust and horror, which would cause him to break.
Lin Wenbo's attitude towards Gong Lixin was as good as ever, but he was more cautious and restrained as he didn't dare be too intimate with him. He was afraid that if he was too close to the boy, then the unrealistic hope in his heart would increase. In the end, it would be difficult to control himself and not hurt the other. Anyone had the opportunity to win Gong Lixin's heart, but he was the only one who couldn't. Because of his relationship with Gong Xiangyi, he had already lost his qualifications.
Gong Lixin didn't notice the duo's intentionally alienating him. For him, the experience of that night was very wonderful and was simply a part of human nature. There was nothing to worry about, and he was even willing to be more intimate with Big Brother Song and Big Brother Lin. Both his body and mind enjoyed it and, at the same time, his cultivation could be improved. So, why not?
However, Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran didn't think that the soul residing in the young man's body had long changed and that this soul was raised by a big evil devil. His way of thinking was completely different from that of modern people Therefore, the two continued to evade meeting with the teenagers intentionally and unintentionally. And, like that, they hadn't been in contact for several days.
The members of the second team had obviously felt that the mood of their team leader was very unstable and he was angry more often. This unstableness didn't only include anger, but also fire. After burning several team members in succession, everyone who saw him walked further away from him as if fearing to step on the king's robe.
One day, it was the second team's turn to be responsible for patrolling at night. Song Haoran ate dinner and ran to the defense line at the other end of Lancang Bridge. He didn't want to go there. He hadn't seen Lixin for five or six days and the thoughts in his heart were spreading wildly and was about to break through his chest. However, Lixin didn't even take the initiative to look for him. It was obvious that he still cared about that night and didn't dare show up. So he continued to endure the suffering in his heart.
In the middle of the night, all was calm. Then, suddenly, an earthquake occurred, trembling the plain for a few minutes as if it was the aftermath of a bigger earthquake. However, the area of A Province was not on a junction of tectonic plates and an earthquake was not possible. The base gradually brightened with lights and everyone went out to check the situation. After seeing that the vibrations had subsided and that there was no abnormalities for more than an hour, they went to sleep.
Two hours later, the control center at the other end of Lancang River Bridge called the base. A large number of evolved zombies were rushing towards the base. They lacked the strength to deal with them and requested support.
The alarm had not even rung yet and Gong Lixin had already got up from bed before dressing quickly. He heard footsteps of a large number of zombies approaching the base and Big Brother Song was patrolling the bridge at this time. For the safety of the base, Big Brother Song would surely be there to defend the first line of defense. He must rush to Big Brother Song's side as soon as possible.
"Get out of bed. There are a large number of zombies attacking! Follow me to the bridge to fight!" One by one, Gong Lixin knocked on the door of his team members and hurriedly ordered them.
His team members didn't question him and dressed at the fastest speed, took their weapons and followed Gong Lixin to the bridge.
After they left, the base's alarm also rang. In order to avoid attracting more zombies, the alarm rang very shortly, but it was enough to wake up the five-senses sensitive ability users. This was the first time the base had sounded the alarm. It showed that the situation was serious. The ability users yelling as they got busy with the rescue.
When Gong Lixin and his party arrived, Song Haoran had already put his team members to battle. At the beginning of their establishment, the base was equipped with iron gates to block zombies at both ends of the bridge. There were forts beside the iron gates. If one encountered a zombie siege, they could also use artillery fire from there. Of course, if there were not too many zombies, they could also set up a machine gun to shoot them down.
There were many zombies coming, but not that many. According to a visual inspection, there were three to four hundred zombies with most of them being first-level zombies and more than 30 second-level zombies. They hadn't reached the range of the artillery yet. One must know that during the apocalypse, the military had very little power. The shells were not renewable resources. With one less shell, there was one less resource that could be used.
Several soldiers hid on both sides of the fort and swept the zombies with machine guns. Although the first-level zombies were agile, they still fell down under the attack of a gun. The second-level zombies were not so easy to deal with. They used their abilities to block the shells aimed at their head and rushed towards the guns with no fear, rushing towards the iron gates in an attempt to break into the door.
The bullets hit the energy film around their heads as if they were hitting steel plate and they fell to the ground without even hurting them. As for the bombs, they were not painful and it didn't seem to hinder their footsteps.
The door made a loud, deafening noise and the over than 30 second-level zombies were stimulated by the sound. Excited, they released their abilities and bombarded the door panels made of several layers of steel, adamant to break through this line of defense. They had been able to smell the fresh scent of human flesh in the air and the saliva in their mouths had started to flow out.
There were a few wind zombies that, using the wind, flew over the gate. The soldiers hidden behind the fort were shocked at the sight and quickly pointed their guns at them. But apart from the bullets painlessly bouncing off, they couldn't hinder their approach.
The zombies at the iron gate were inspired by this and, with their sharp nails, smashed into the concrete and climbed up, rushing towards the soldiers who were in the fort. Song Haoran and his team members quickly released their abilities to bombard these zombies.
When Gong Lixin arrived, he saw a red-eyed Song Haoran in the middle of a group of zombies. His expression was cold and his red-eyes released an awe-inspiring aura. The flames in his palm were nearly turned into ash any zombies in front of him with no mercy. Around him, there were dozens of bodies of zombies lying around making for an extremely spectacular scene.
The circle around him was a warzone and none of his team membered fared approach for fear of getting hit by his violent flames. The smell of a high-grade ability user was irresistible to zombies. A dozen or so high-level zombies in the field saw Song Haoran as a delicious prey and swarmed towards him.
Only two hands were hardly enough to support Song Haoran and he was getting tired. In such a circumstance, Gong Lixin waved his blade and rushed up, instantly killing three zombies who had sneaked behind the other and cut down an ice cone released by a zombie.
"Lixin?" The boy's face full of worries greeted him and Song Haoran recalled what he had in a moment of impulse. He stared at him and couldn't believe he was here.
"Big Brother Song, It's me." Gong Lixin smiled and quickly moved up to him, placing himself back to back and fighting with the other side by side. The two of them had the same mind and tacit understanding. They harvested the life of numerous zombies as if they were harvesting wheat. The flames fluttered and blood stained the ground. The second-level high-grade zombies who had coveted Song Haoran were discouraged and hesitated in their actions.
Seeing their group leader now out of danger, the second team's members were relieved and concentrated on their own situations.
Members of another group also joined the battle. Sun Tiantian made a large depression in front of the iron gate, trapping the zombies on the ground; Luo Dahai grew a diamond vine and entangled the zombies who stepped its body and strangled them; Wang Tao and Li Dongsheng killed with a knife. One by one, the zombies that came from the front were kicked into the diamond vines. Ling Yin and Da Liu wielded both a machete and chopped feet and heads with their tacit understanding; Gu Nan, Ma Jun and Sun Jie stood at the edge of the fort and each released their abilities to violently bombard the zombies below, smashing them into paste.
The group of combat forces were really strong. In less than ten minutes, only one or two zombies remained outside the iron gate, waiting to be killed. The second-level zombies who broke passed the iron gate were also killed by Song Haoran and Gong Lixin.
When the other groups arrived, the bridge of Minjiang River had become the remains of a devastating battlefield with bodies of several soldiers laying side by side. Members of group one and two were solemn as they cleaned up the battlefield.
A second later, people quickly went up to help, but Lin Wenbo didn't move. Standing in the shadow of the bridge, he stared at Song Haoran and Gong Lixin, who looked at each other. After standing there for a long time, he could only put away his emotions and walked towards the two.
"It's been hard on you. Go back and rest first, I'll take care of the rest here." He patted Gong Lixin's head as he spoke to Song Haoran.
"Alright." Song Haoran nodded and took two steps before he stopped.
He turned back and whispered, "Thank you. Thank you for stopping me in time." Lin Wenbo smiled and waved, but when he turned his back, his eyes were cold and held deep bitterness and a heavy sense of guilt. If his friend knew the ugly thoughts in his heart, he's afraid that it would not be a 'thank you' but a strong fist that he'd receive.
Song Haoran and Gong Lixin had no words between them as they walked back to the dormitory. Seeing that the boy wished him 'good night' and was about to close the door to sleep, Song Haoran gritted his teeth and grabbed the young man's thin arms.
"Lixin, I'm sorry. Please don't be angry with me. We can still be like before, I am still your Big Brother Song, right?" He leaned over and looked into the clear eyes of the young man as he spoke with a slightly hoarse voice brought upon his fear and his exhaustion. He was afraid of losing the teenager after today. He was afraid to death!
"Huh?" Gong Lixin looked up and asked inexplicably, "Did Big Brother Song do something that he should be sorry for? Why are you asking for my forgiveness?" He twisted his delicate eyebrows and tried to recall.
Song Haoran's heartstring was loose as he cautiously reminded, "I shouldn't have kissed you that day or tried to…" He said up until there but couldn't bring himself to say more. Now that he was here, he was still afraid for a while. If he really was out of control and forced himself on the other, what would have happened? Not to mention Lixin's feelings, he just wanted to kill himself.
Gong Lixin remembered the crazy and sweet kiss and the strong feelings and movements that made his body burn. His cheeks reddened as he revealed a surprised expression. He stepped forward and circled Song Haoran's neck with both hands as he leaned onto his toes and thinned his lips to control his breathing. In his last life, he and his human furnaces had never entangled their lips. This kind of gesture was very warm and sweet. He liked it very much.
Imitating the movement of the other day, his little tongue pushed into Song Haoran's mouth and stirred inside and finally sucking Song Haoran's lower lips before letting go.
"Big Brother Song, I like it when you kiss me like this. Good night." Getting straight to the heart of the matter, he once again placed a soft kiss on Song Haoran's lips before he smiled sweetly and closed the door.
Song Haoran stood against the door panel for a long time. It took him five or six minutes to snap out of his daze. The tingling sensation that he could still feel on his lips and lower lip was initiated by the youth made him ecstatic. Was it truly true? Lixin said that he liked his kiss?
If he weren't afraid of waking Lixin, Song Haoran almost wanted to scream a few times as unparalleled happiness wanted to burst out of his chest. The fear and panic of the past few days all disappeared and, in this moment, he felt like he was in heaven.
Although Lixin's eyes still didn't have the heat he expected, but as long as Lixin didn't reject his closeness, he would be able to turn his childish possessiveness into love sooner or later. Even if he needed to spend a lifetime to accomplish this goal, he would never give up.
