Chapter 47: Powerlessness
It has been a week since the Quyang base was destroyed, and Xu Yitian and his party have just entered the province where H City is located, and at this rate, it will take a month to return to the new H City base.
"There are really a lot fewer people." Xu Yitian looked at the team and said.
Compared to the original huge team, the current team has shrunk by about a third, and it is still decreasing, but there are also many people who have joined the team, and if they don't join, they will have to wait for death, because the food has been scavenged by this team.
"Not everyone can persevere, not to mention Gan Zhiyuan, they don't care about their life or death at all." Li Ruoxi said.
"Hierarchy?" Xu Yitian said helplessly.
The Quyang base divides everyone into three classes.
The first class is the capable, with a thousand strange abilities, infinite strength, body splitting, beastification, etc., these people provide the environment for ordinary people who are incapable to live, protect the lives of ordinary people, and enjoy the fruits of ordinary people's labor.
The second class is people with excellent skills, such as doctors, architects, engineers, scientists, managerial talents, etc., these people rely on their own wisdom and experience, do not need to do tiring physical work, and enjoy a more comfortable life.
The third class is those who work physically in exchange for payment, such as farmers, construction workers, prostitutes, etc.; Or pre-apocalyptic work that is not useful now, such as various anchors, brokers, stock consultants, etc.
Determine your level based on what you can contribute to the base, just like the streamer, who was very popular before the end of the world, because at that time people were full of material life, so they pursued spiritual enjoyment.
After the end of the world, people can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes, how can they have the leisure to watch a live broadcast and brush a gift, not to mention the hardware conditions are not allowed, of course, some female anchors may live a better life, provided that she chooses to sell everything she has and becomes a plaything in the hands of others.
Although Xu Yitian didn't like such a system, he couldn't stop it, or he couldn't stop it.
Because this is the torrent of the times, even if it is a capable person, he will only be shattered if he stands in front of him.
And Xu Yitian is also a beneficiary of the hierarchy, although he doesn't want to admit it, but it's a fact.
So he can only do what he can to stop the unfair thing from happening, just like in the base of H City, stop the fat man from withholding the workers' food, and that's all he can do.
But he didn't know whether to take care of the various crimes that happened along the way, because even if he stopped a group of people from robbing other people's food, after Xu Yitian turned around and left, maybe he would be snatched away by others.
A bad guy is not terrible, what is terrible is that everyone becomes a bad person, one second may be the victim of being robbed, and the next second may become the perpetrator of robbing others.
Xu Yitian could only care about no one, and looked at everything powerlessly.
Although I feel uncomfortable, I can't do anything about it.
He's just a capable person, a relatively powerful person, but he's not a god, and he can't find food for thousands of people every day.
"How long will it take for us to get there?" Gan Zhiyuan came to Xu Yitian's side and asked.
"It's going to take another ten days." Xu Yitian didn't know, so he had to say a number casually.
"Ten days?" Apparently Gan Zhiyuan was not satisfied with this figure.
"If you don't care about these people, maybe you can get to your destination earlier, but..."Gan Zhiyuan complained in his heart, and glanced at Xu Yitian.
If Gan Zhiyuan said that he didn't care about these ordinary people, it is estimated that Xu Yitian would be the first to refuse, precisely because Xu Yitian was not a hypocritical person, so it was difficult to deal with.
"I have a good idea, why don't we find someone to go to H City and let them send someone to take over." Li Ruoxi suddenly spoke.
“......”
“......”
"Yes, but in this case there must be two of you, or one of the two of you." Gan Zhiyuan said.
"I'll stay." Before Xu Yitian could speak, Li Ruoxi took the lead in speaking.
"Are you okay?" Xu Yitian said with some worry, because Li Ruoxi's physical fitness is only a little stronger than that of ordinary people, in case the corpse tide catches up when Xu Yitian leaves, then who will guarantee her safety.
"No problem, don't worry." Li Ruoxi said with a smile.
"After I'm gone, you'll be responsible for my girlfriend's safety." Xu Yitian looked at Gan Zhiyuan directly.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect your girlfriend and return it to you completely." Gan Zhiyuan patted his chest and reassured.
"Who do you send with me?" Xu Yitian asked.
"Bei Cheran, Qin Zhanren, you guys go with Brother Xu." Gan Zhiyuan said, and the two men stepped forward.
One was thin and looked very lazy, and the other was about the same height as Xu Yitian, but his body was much stronger than Xu Yitian, and he had bulging muscles like Mr. Bodybuilder.
"Bei Cheran."
Even the man's voice was very lazy, as if he would fall asleep in the next second.
"Qin Zhanren."
A voice as strong as your size.
"Xu Yitian, without further ado, let's go on the road now." Xu Yitian couldn't wait to get on the road, because leaving early meant that the sooner the matter ended, the safer Li Ruoxi would be.
The three of them rushed out directly, and although Xu Yitian hadn't shown the fastest speed yet, both of them could follow behind him, keeping a distance of two or three positions without falling behind.
Qin Zhanren was able to keep up with Xu Yitian's expectations, but Bei Che Ran was able to catch up so easily, which made Xu Yitian a little surprised, it seems that people can't be good-looking.
Xu Yitian began to accelerate little by little, and did not stop accelerating until the two of them couldn't keep up.
Along the way, Xu Yitian did not choose to dodge when he encountered the zombie group, but rushed over directly, wanting to observe the abilities of the two people.
Qin Zhanren exerted his ability, and saw that his whole person was wrapped in red, blue, and purple energy mixed together, and there were obvious thread patterns on the energy, and spiral-shaped wounds appeared on the zombies he hit.
"Swirling energy?" Xu Yitian guessed.
As for Bei Cheran, he flexibly dodged the bite of every zombie, and no zombie could touch him.
Xu Yitian couldn't tell what the ability was, so he could only guess that it was related to speed.
As for Xu Yitian himself, he showed the ability to control the land, because this was the ability he told them before.
But this is only one of the manifestations of his ability, if this ability is used to target Xu Yitian, Xu Yitian will tell them what cruelty is.
The ability to manipulate molecules is no joke.
In this way, the three figures shuttled through the streets and headed towards H City.
At this time, the corpse tide was slowly moving south, and Li Ruoxi was told the news by the 'people'.
A race to the death is about to begin.
