Chapter 643: A Safe Stronghold
In a perilous world like the end times, ordinary humans still occupy the share of most human beings, after all, the requirements and opportunities for evolving into alienates are too small.
Although these ordinary survivors, with the excesses of the end times, also dare to kill and face those ugly zombies, they are also constantly evolving, surpassing the power of human beings before the end of the world, but they are still very weak against all kinds of monsters.
Therefore, it is very important to have a safe base and gathering place at this time.
Human beings are inseparable from eating, drinking, and sleeping, which replenish the instinctive needs of physical and mental strength.
The longest record for humans not sleeping is 264 hours, which is 11 days, of course, this is a British competition, and they don't need to worry about all kinds of monsters and ghosts like humans in the end times, so staying up late without sleeping will work.
But if you don't have a good rest to replenish your strength and spirit in the last days, you may have become a zombie's meal by the time you go out to look for food.
Of course, instead of sleeping, you also need to find a safe place to eat and drink, so that you can cook peacefully or eliminate toxins from your body.
The human body can last for 3 days due to lack of water, and the human body can last 3 weeks for starvation, but it can only live for 3 minutes if it lacks air.
Everything needs a safe place for these ordinary people to live a good life and spend their tired bodies and minds after a day of going out and fighting all kinds of battles.
Generally speaking, the high-rise buildings in some large communities are the preference of most survivors.
These high-rise apartments with a height of more than 20 to 30 floors have a unique evasion effect on zombies and anthropomorphic beasts on the ground, after all, zombies are monsters, there is no intelligence, you hide in a high-rise building dozens of meters above the ground, they still can't hear your sound and smell.
So many survivors' groups and gangs also like the high-rise of the community, in addition to this feature, there is also the apartment in the community, after all, it has the conditions to live before the end of the world, with beds, kitchens and even bathrooms, which will always make them more comfortable in the end times.
However, high-rise residential buildings are also like a double-edged sword, with very inconvenient places.
The difficulty of getting in and out, that is, the time it takes to go up and down the stairs, such a high-rise building may keep you away from the zombies and monsters downstairs, and you can survive peacefully on it.
But because of the lack of electricity in the last days, you can't use the elevator, you can only spend a lot of time and physical strength, up and down walking stairs, this is a very bad problem, maybe after a fierce battle, when you are injured and go home to recuperate, such a staircase of dozens of floors, will make your injury aggravated.
Another point is that if you live in such a high-rise, you will definitely need to clear the space above and below the floor where you live.
Because many human beings have become zombies and various monsters in the last days, they are all in these own houses, if you live upstairs or downstairs in it, you may alarm it, and you must clean up these dangerous hidden dangers to ensure the safety of your stronghold.
However, this is not the most critical issue, the most critical issue is security.
Although this high-rise apartment is relatively safe, in the face of zombies without thinking, the building has access obstructions such as doors and stairs, and you can also use some obstacles to block the corridor, and when you are about to go out, it is being cleaned up, so that zombies cannot enter.
But in the end times, there are not only zombies, but also anthropomorphic beasts and corpse people, this kind of monster that surpasses zombies, they have a certain amount of wisdom compared to zombies.
When you live upstairs and they suddenly discover your stronghold and surround it, that's when it's the most dangerous time, because your route down the stairs is blocked, you can't get out of the top floor, there's no way but to fly.
Therefore, in the transition of this high-rise building, most of the survivors also understood its pros and cons.
In addition to the high-rise buildings in the community, some high-rise office buildings, or buildings, are of the same type, but compared with some single-family or double-door double-family in the community, office buildings and some buildings have more safe passages, which are much safer than the community.
But just like the inertia of pros and cons, they don't have the comfortable environment of a residential building, the conditions will be relatively difficult, and you need to control all the safe passages, otherwise any monster coming in will kill you.
Of course, in addition to these high-rise buildings, some basements or underground garages are also popular places for various survivors of the apocalyptic world.
Concealment, large space, many escape routes, and many obstacles, these are all skills that human beings are gradually exploring in the last days, but like high-rise buildings, everything has advantages and disadvantages, and cannot be perfect.
The underground space is dim, even during the day, and the rain on a rainy day can make these spaces very humid and even flooded! Coupled with the cold of winter, many humans would rather choose some space-dense communities than endure the dark and cold of the underground space.
After all, human beings in the last days, without that condition to generate electricity, lose the light, are the loneliest and most terrible.
There are also large spaces such as shopping malls, hospitals or schools, which are also places where humans like to gather, with large spaces and complete facilities, and convenient escapes, all of which are the most considered places for survivors.
At this time, the bald head followed the young man in front of him, climbed over a wall, and then entered a dense space similar to an urban village.
Because of the rain, these uneven grounds, full of stagnant water, floating on all kinds of debris and dirt, and even some inexplicable feces and corpses, make it impossible for people to get off their feet.
The young man was familiar with the way, climbed over the low building on the upper side, and then climbed to the roof, and the bald head did not hesitate, and climbed up immediately after him.
In the urban village, there are not only various one- and two-story low-rise houses, but also some dense old-fashioned residential areas located here, which can be seen at a glance as historic buildings, densely interspersed in this space, which seems very crowded.
The young man jumped over the gaps between the houses, and then ran quickly towards the interior of the urban village, and watching his skillful movements, the fat man could feel that he often walked like this.
Soon, the old-fashioned community was close at hand, and the bald head also felt that his so-called stronghold should be in this community, and his pace accelerated.
But watching the young man jump from a two-story house to the ground, and then walk to a complex that resembles the central ancestral hall of an urban village, he felt that his idea was still wrong.
Sure enough, in my sight, a few men walked out of the private house at the edge of the ancestral hall, looking at them nervously, and when they saw the young man, the weapons they were holding in their hands gradually put down and opened their mouths to greet.
And the bald head also jumped down, pointing at him on the young man's side, as if introducing himself to his companion, and walking towards the front.
