An incredibly huge tiger appeared. It was almost three times the size of an ordinary tiger, and its eyes glowed blood red in the dark.

"That's... the Tiger King!" the local hunters exclaimed, "It never leaves the mountains!"

As soon as the tiger king appeared, the other beasts retreated a few steps and formed a circle.

It slowly walked towards the crowd, each step causing the ground to shake slightly.

"Everyone enter the dungeon!" Sophie ordered harshly, summoning several of her most powerful zombies.

"Roar!" The tiger king suddenly accelerated and pounced on the crowd like a black shadow. Its sharp claws easily tore several zombies apart and rushed towards the entrance of the dungeon.

"Bang!" Luna's hidden weapon hit the tiger king's eyes, but the giant monster seemed to feel no pain and continued to charge forward.

"Boom!" Cracks began to appear at the entrance of the dungeon under the huge impact force.

"Damn it!" Sophie gritted her teeth, "All psychics, concentrate your fire!"

More than a dozen superpowers launched attacks at the same time, and their various abilities intertwined to form a temporary line of defense. However, the power of the Tiger King was too strong, and the line of defense was gradually collapsing.

"Master Sophie!" Jack suddenly shouted, "We can use the gunpowder in the storage room! Detonate the entrance and cause the rock to collapse!"

It was a dilemma. Detonating the entrance meant abandoning everyone outside, but if they didn't, everyone would die.

Sophie's eyes became sharp: "Do it!"

Amid a violent explosion, the main entrance to the dungeon collapsed, and the roar of the Tiger King was buried under the rubble.

"Hu...Hu..." The survivors collapsed on the ground, but they knew that this was just the beginning.

"We are trapped here now," Jack wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Oxygen, food and water are all problems."

"Let the engineering team continue to dig new channels,"

Sophie's voice remained calm. "The medical team is counting the wounded, and the logistics team is counting the supplies."

She looked at the survivors shivering in the darkness and said, "The chance to survive is always reserved for those who are well prepared."

With a loud bang, the ground shook violently.

Chapter 610 Sophie is angry

Everyone thought it was a wild beast attacking, but then a brilliant golden light tore through the darkness of the eternal night.

A golden dragon fell from the sky, its scales shining brightly in the darkness.

What was even more shocking was that a man in white was standing steadily on the dragon head, his long hair fluttering in the wind and his whole body shrouded in a faint golden light.

"Yes...it's a god!"

"Oh my god! There really is something magical going on!"

"We are saved!"

Those who had been working hard just now immediately dropped their tools and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"What did I say? Prayer helps!"

"Yes, yes, it is our sincerity that moved the gods!"

Zhang Chen waved his hand casually, roared towards the sky, and spewed out a stream of hot dragon breath.

The flames were like a golden waterfall, turning all the mad beasts around into ashes.

Even the terrifying tiger king was nothing but a piece of fragile flesh and blood in front of the dragon's breath.

"God bless you!"

"Please save us!"

"I am willing to build a temple for you!"

Seeing these people who were working just now start to kowtow and pray again, Sophie was almost furious.

She watched the scene coldly, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.

(These people...are so forgetful. If they hadn't reinforced it just now, the dungeon would have collapsed long ago, and they wouldn't even have a place to kneel.)

"Ms. Sophie," Jack was also speechless, "Look at them... they have already forgotten how they survived just now."

"Ah,"

Sophie sneered, "That's human nature."

"Someone holds up an umbrella of protection for them, so they think they are born to be protected."

"Someone solves the crisis and they take it for granted."

At this moment, a woman who had just been helping to treat the wounded was now kneeling on the ground and shouting, "God!"

"You see, our prayers have touched you, haven't you?"

"You finally came to save us!"

Sophie couldn't help it: "Oh?"

"is it?"

"Then may I ask your Lord God, why didn't you come earlier?"

"Do you have to wait until so many people die before showing up?"

"This...this is a test of our faith!" someone argued.

"test?"

Sophie sneered, "So those who died deserved to die because they didn't have enough faith?"

“Those children who were torn to pieces by wild beasts, did they deserve it because they were not pious enough?”

"Sophie!" someone scolded, "How can you say that about God!"

"I would like to ask,"

Sophie looked around. "If you were just kneeling and praying, and didn't reinforce the walls, treat the wounded, or maintain ventilation, would anyone still be standing here and talking now?"

Some people lowered their heads, but more people were still immersed in the frenzy of God saving the world.

"Miracle! This is a miracle!"

“I want to convert!”

"God bless you!"

Looking at the crazy looks of these people, Sophie shook her head and turned away.

In her opinion, what is truly terrifying is not the eternal night or the wild beasts, but the ignorance of people who may give up thinking at any time.

The construction of the underground city has advanced by leaps and bounds.

Zhang Chen only needs to make a gesture to dig out a wide passage;

A single spell can reinforce a thousand-meter-long rock wall.

These tasks, which once required hundreds of people working day and night to complete, were now easy under his hands.

But Sophie's mood was getting worse and worse.

"Look, God is so powerful!"

“It’s done with a wave of the hand!”

"God is still reliable. All the work we did before was in vain!"

These words pierced Sophie's heart like a knife.

She stood alone on the newly excavated heights, watching the crowd below cheering and kneeling around Zhang Chen.

All the fatigue, grievance and anger I had felt in these days suddenly came to my mind.

"You...you ungrateful things!" Her voice choked.

"When the wild beasts come, who is desperately protecting you?"

“When the eternal night fell, who worked tirelessly to organize the evacuation?”

"When the underground city was about to collapse, who risked their lives to reinforce it?"

Tears flowed uncontrollably: "I...I tried so hard to save you..."

"You just don't listen, you just don't understand!"

"Now that you see someone stronger, have you forgotten everything that happened before?"

She squatted down, unable to control her emotions any longer.

The pressure these days was so great that she hardly slept. In order to keep more people alive, she had to make one cruel decision after another.

Every life that was forced to be abandoned, every difficult decision, was like a heavy hammer hitting her heart.

"Silly girl," a gentle voice sounded behind her. Zhang Chen had come to her side without her knowing when. "You have done very well."

"Don't comfort me!"

Sophie turned her face away, "I hate you!"

"If you want to come, please come earlier. You are hurting me... hurting me..."

Zhang Chen gently held her in his arms: "I'm late, it's my fault."

"But if it weren't for you, all these people would have died long ago."

"Do you know why I came here?"

Sophie sobbed and shook her head.

“Because I feel hope here,”

Zhang Chen said softly, "In this land shrouded in eternal night, only here is there a beam of light. That is the light that you ignited with your will and determination."

"But they... they don't understand at all..."

"They will understand," Zhang Chen wiped the tears from her face, "When they calm down, they will understand who really saved them. And..."

He paused and said, "Look, there are still many people working."

Sophie then noticed that although most people were kneeling and cheering, those who had been saved by her and those who had witnessed her dedication were still working silently at their respective posts.

"Lady Sophie's order is to complete the work." An old man said while carrying supplies.

"Yes," Jack nodded, "Without Lady Sophie's decision, we would have died long ago. How could we have waited for the gods to save us?"

Seeing this, Sophie burst into laughter: "Are you trying to comfort me?"

"No," Zhang Chen said seriously, "I'm telling you that a truly strong person doesn't depend on how strong his abilities are, but on being able to give people hope in desperate situations."

"you did it."

Zhang Chen looked at the crowd below who were still kowtowing and praying, thinking: "Do you know?"

"Why do they worship gods so blindly?"

Sophie wiped away her tears: "Because of ignorance."

"That's right," Zhang Chen nodded. "Most of them have never been to school and don't understand scientific principles, so when they see anything beyond their understanding, they attribute it to divine intervention."

At this time, a little girl came over timidly: "Ms. Sophie, I...I want to ask you a question."

"What's the problem?" Sophie squatted down and asked gently.

“Why is it dark?”

"Is the god angry?" The little girl's eyes were full of confusion. "Mom said that we were not pious enough and angered the god..."

Chapter 611 Alien Attack

Sophie and Zhang Chen looked at each other and saw heartache in each other's eyes.

These people don’t want to make progress, but they don’t have the opportunity to access knowledge.

"Come," Sophie took the little girl's hand, "I will tell you why there are day and night. It's because the planet we live on is rotating..."

She used simple language and gestures to explain basic astronomy knowledge to the little girl.

The little girl's eyes gradually brightened up: "So that's how it is! It's not the gods punishing us!"
