Chapter 44: The King of the Race (Ask for Collection~~)
There was silence in the Black Earth City.
Everywhere you look, you can see the people who have fallen to the ground.
They had fever and convulsions, their faces were sallow, and their skin membranes were abrupt, like evil spirits in the world.
There were several corpses lying on the street.
Some of them had their hands stretched out to the sky, stiffening there.
It seems to be an indictment of this generation without a day, sad and bleak.
The smell of death pervaded everywhere.
It's been four days.
The blood plague is growing even more rapidly than the phenomenon suggests.
After the laborers fell ill en masse, the consumption of medicinal herbs and food also reached an alarming level.
Black Earth City tried its best, but it couldn't stop the collapse of the situation.
There have already been cases of fighters falling ill.
This made Black Earth City even worse.
All production in Black Earth City has come to a standstill.
All the people of the city were at home.
Uninfected labourers go door-to-door to distribute food.
The fighters were responsible for pulling the bodies of the sick and dead outside the city to be incinerated for disposal.
Rows of carts passed by on the street.
It was littered with horrific corpses.
The blood plague is like a demon that eats at life, and every dead person seems to be sucked dry.
When he neared the end of his life, he was almost a dead corpse, and he couldn't see a human appearance at all.
The second floor of the headquarters.
The female chief officer in military uniform stood by the window, tall and tall, looking down from the floor-to-ceiling window.
Soldiers in the street looked at the fallen people on the side of the road.
If they find that they are dead, they will throw them in the car and carry them away.
"If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for Medical Officer Dyson to come back. Xia Nu stood next to him and said slowly.
"How much medicine and food are there?" Xia Jiayue's face was calm, and he couldn't see what was in his heart.
Xia Nu's eyes were anxious, and his usual plain and kind eyebrows were twisted into a strand: "The symptomatic medicine has bottomed out, and now it is supported by nutrients, and the food can last for two days at most." ”
After speaking, Xia sighed angrily: "We still underestimate the power of this blood plague." ”
Xia Jiayue didn't speak, the cold gaze in her eyes flickered, suddenly smart, suddenly decisive.
It seems that he is making some decision.
"We can't sit back like this, even if the medicine search team brings back enough herbs, the lack of food will trap us to death. Xia Jiayue said suddenly.
When the herbs are brought back, they can be decocted and refined immediately.
However, the restoration of production materials cannot be done in a day or two.
The autumn harvest is approaching, and someone will harvest the grain in the field.
The meat that is brought back is washed, processed, salted, and dried.
The warehouse should be cooled, dewormed, and dried.
Someone has to do all this work, or even if you harvest food, you won't be able to store it.
None of these things can be done in a short period of time.
There are not enough men, and even if all the soldiers are removed to work, it will be too late.
Hearing Xia Zhanyue's profound words, Xia Nu's eyelids raised slightly: "You mean?"
"I won't sit here and wait to die, prepare five hundred elites for me, and tonight, go out to loot!"
"If I don't have resources, I'll grab it, grab food, medicine, and people!"
"They can come and fight us, why can't we fight back!"
"Find the woman Annan said, ask her where the alien creature settlement is, and let's kill a batch of meat first!"
Xia Nu was concerned about his daughter, and he hadn't considered going out to grab resources before.
It stands to reason that this kind of snatching is now commonplace outside, and it is the most common way to obtain resources.
But Xia Nu always felt that her daughter was more than sharp and brave, and her resourcefulness was insufficient.
I'm worried that something will happen to my daughter, so I instinctively don't want my daughter to go out on adventures.
This is probably a common problem for every parent.
They all hope to take care of their children under their wings, and there is no room for the slightest risk.
This kind of mentality, even the resourceful Xia Fu is not exempt from vulgarity.
Xia Huntyue's cultivation talent is stronger than that of Black Earth City, and he is so young, only twenty-four or five years old, it is the time when the sky is not afraid of the earth.
Black Earth City's always conservative strategy is also a lot of disadvantages in her opinion.
This blood epidemic, she had already made plans.
Cut the Gordian knot.
If you hesitate, you can only drag yourself to death.
While you still have the strength, go out and plunder.
It's better to offend a few safe zones than to fall and wait for those safe zones to come and plunder you.
Xia Nu knew that he couldn't stop it.
And in this case, the only way to grab some medicine and meat is to help yourself get through the difficult time.
Xia Nu thought about what kind of raid plan to make.
..................
The light rain made the soft black soil muddy and difficult to walk.
Coupled with the presence of wounded, the journey of the procession was extremely slow.
During the march, the trainees were approaching Lu Yan, intentionally or unintentionally.
Many students looked at Lu Yan with timid eyes.
This kind of atmosphere is a bit like the weak in the group, begging for the protection of the strong.
"Why do you think everyone looks at us strangely......" Chen Hao was alert, and quickly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
In the past, he was a middle-class in strength, and he was a little transparent in the academy.
He was bullied and ridiculed by a student with a strong cultivation like Xu Hai, and he was used to it.
Suddenly, it became the center of attention.
Those eyes were still cowardly and humble that I had never seen before.
made Chen Hao get goosebumps all over his body.
"I found out too,"
The fat man Wang slept on his back, and the six monkeys who were still weak were still weak, with a big bag hanging on his chest, and a thoughtful look appeared on his honest face.
"It was like everyone was around us. ”
"Is there something wrong with us?"
Chen Hao looked at himself and glanced at the other three again.
Suddenly, a nameless fire broke out, and he shouted angrily to the surrounding students:
"Hey, what are you doing!
was scolded by Chen Hao, and those students who were usually proud didn't even fight back.
Silently turned his face and continued to bury his head in the road.
"One by one, the gods are babbling, strange. Chen Hao muttered.
Lu Yan was also confused.
Could it be that his hidden relics have been discovered?
Or was it seen when the holy relic absorbed the life element beads?
Even if you know about these things, you don't need to look at them with that kind of fear.
We are all young people of the same generation.
If you're curious, ask at most, why be afraid of being like that.
"It's beast behavior,"
The six monkeys opened their mouths and explained,
"I've been observing just now, and it seems that everyone regards Lu Yan as the leader of the group. ”
"Leader of the beast race?"
Chen Hao looked surprised, as if he had heard something terrible,
"Do you think Ah Yan is the king of the mountain and want Ah Yan to protect them?"
"Not exactly,"
The six monkeys said,
"Humans are also beasts by nature, and many of their behaviors are actually interpreted in the same way as beasts. ”
"The king of the beast herd often brings not violent faith, but the belief of destiny. ”
"To put it simply, as long as the king of the clan is alive, everyone will have confidence and motivation."
"In this way, even if there is any dangerous enemy, as long as the leader does not fall, everyone dares to rush and kill. ”
This is evidenced in many ancient conquest examples. ”
"Animal nature is rooted in the nature of all things, although everyone is a highly intelligent and gifted initiator, but when encountering a harsh environment that can endanger life, under strong pressure, it will return to its nature. ”
"Yesterday, Lu Yan sheltered us, and everyone saw it, so they naturally listed Lu Yan as the king of the team. ”
"Coupled with the fact that the death rate was as high as one-third yesterday, everyone has a sense of crisis that their lives are on the line. ”
Now it seems that everyone has faintly regarded Lu Yan as a person who can lead them to survive, so they want to get closer to Lu Yan intentionally or unintentionally, so that they feel more secure. ”
And because of the asylum, when facing Lu Yan, he will unconsciously reveal a humble, obedient, and following attitude. ”
