Chapter 50: The Ransacked Shop
The hunting teams of the various communities that were just formed yesterday seem to be mostly extinct today.
Of course, this is indeed the case.
Yesterday, the hunting teams formed by the neighborhood committees and property management in various communities were very unsuccessful because there were too many people.
Too many people means it's hard to manage.
It is difficult to manage hundreds of people without a clear class organization, especially since just a few days ago these people were just a group of strangers.
In this fast-paced city of the modern age, neighbor has become a relatively distant relational word.
Many people may live for a few years without knowing what their neighbors are like, which is a normal thing.
In this case, it can be said that a hunting team composed of a group of strangers can have any tacit understanding.
So many people have their own ideas, especially when faced with the monsters in the suburbs and all kinds of novelties, people's curiosity and desire make many people sneak away from the big army.
And there are so many people that even if there were really small-scale monsters, they would have been scared away long ago when they saw so many people.
Monsters are not stupid, they will stand there stupidly and wait for these people to kill.
Hundreds or thousands of people can't encounter monsters at all, unless they dare to go deep into the forest.
But they did not dare to go deep into the forest.
The forest is a hundred times more dangerous than the outskirts of the city!
In this case, on the premise that some people went to the suburbs yesterday, it is normal for many people to choose to leave the hunting team and go to the suburbs by themselves with relatives and friends.
And because of the shortage of food, many families have an imminent need for food, and I am afraid that even many people themselves do not believe that they can get much from following the community hunting team.
Therefore, it is normal to break away from the hunting party and form a more reliable team on your own.
The large forest outside the suburbs that envelops the entire city has temporarily attracted a lot of attention.
This leads them to believe that food can be obtained through the forest.
Forests are considered by many to represent abundant food.
Forests do nurtures abundant resources, but they are also a symbol of danger.
Wait until this group of people hit a wall in the forest and enough people have died...... It will become more and more polarized.
Some people will retreat, they will be afraid of the dangers in the forest, so they will hide in the city and rely on the resources of the city to survive.
Others, if they survive, will become new adaptors.
Chen Yiming retracted his gaze.
There are still six million people in the city, and that number could drop dramatically in two months...... If there are no surprises.
After arriving in the suburbs, Chen Yiming saw that many people were returning from the suburbs one after another.
These people are not in a very good mental state and look a little sluggish.
Others were covered in dust and blood.
These are the people who stayed in the suburbs last night.
The suburbs seem to be a bit lively at night.
Blood clots could be seen everywhere on the ground, most of which had dried up.
Black-red patches like ringworm grow on the road.
Many of the shops on the roadside were damaged, and some of the doors that were originally closed were rudely pried open, and the valuables inside were looted.
There is a sense of chaos everywhere in the suburbs now.
Order here is being provoked and disrupted.
Chen Yiming was suddenly stunned, he saw a shop not far away being pried open, and there were oil drums lying horizontally in front of the store, and the door of the store was full of oil stains, and there were traces of flames.
He had only been here a few days ago.
It's the boss who sells walkie-talkies, and he owns a shop that sells generators.
"Just stop here. Chen Yiming said.
Chi Zhouhu stepped on the brakes, and Chen Yiming thanked the landlord and got out of the car with his younger brother.
Chi Xiaomo was inexplicably a little disappointed when she saw Chen Yiming get out of the car.
At first, she thought that everyone could team up together today.
After getting out of the car, Chen Jing also remembered his memories of this shop.
When I walked over, I found that the store had been swept away.
Both the gasoline and the generator inside were looted, and some generators that could not be snatched were directly destroyed.
The ground was full of chaotic footprints.
I didn't see the shadow of the shopkeeper, and I didn't know if it was an accident or if I left in despair.
"Let's go. Chen Yiming sighed, his tone a little disappointed.
He didn't know what to say.
Maybe it's the death of a rabbit and a fox sadness?
Indescribable emotions rose from the bottom of Chen Yiming's heart.
There are still many people on this street, some of whom simply sit on the road in the open air or lie on the edge of the flower beds.
Another group of people who were sitting not far away to rest said, "Brother, you are late, this store was robbed last night haha." ”
There were four men in the group, three men and one woman, and around them stood twelve summoned beasts.
There are three summoned beasts per person, which is considered a top match at this stage.
"What's going on in this store. ”
"There's a lot of gas in this store, the generator was found during the robbery after someone smashed the roller shutter open last night, and then the whole street went crazy, you know the generator, now there is a power outage everywhere, there is actually a generator in this store haha, there are too many people looting, and in the end everything inside is almost emptied. ”
"That's pathetic. Chen Yiming said.
"It's pathetic, these people are like robbers. The man who spoke said with regret, but listening to his tone, it seemed that he was sorry that he had not been able to get a piece of the pie.
"Then where did the owner of this shop go?" Chen Yiming finally asked.
"Do you know the owner?" asked the man who spoke.
"I don't know. Chen Yiming said.
"Oh, the owner of this shop got the news this morning that his shop had been robbed and hurried over, and he scolded the door of the store for a long time before leaving. ”
Chen Yiming didn't continue to ask the shopkeeper about it, he inquired about what happened here last night, and then he learned that there were a lot of monsters in the forest that rushed into the suburbs last night.
Then there were many battles on the outskirts.
Many people have subdued powerful monsters in battle, and some people have been killed by powerful monsters in battle.
A lot happened last night.
Chen Yiming was a little moved after hearing this.
There will be monsters in the suburbs at night, and if you stay in the suburbs, you will have a better harvest.
If that's the case, consider staying overnight in the suburbs.
After Chen Yi thanked this person, he and Chen Jing walked towards the forest.
The bushes and grass at the forest border were all picked.
Sure enough, just like Chen Yiming said yesterday, there are marks everywhere on the trunks of trees in the forest.
X symbol, Z symbol, I symbol.
Various symbols are drawn on the trees.
There are too many symbols, full of imagination, and even Chen Yiming saw a ♂ symbol.
With so many symbols, I don't know if I can tell which one is my own.
