Chapter 111: The Gathering Point
Next...... Our mission is presumably to prevent the British government from awakening the monster directly.
Of course, according to common sense, this kind of thing should not happen, but what kind of ultra-ancient civilization comes out, and what kind of "resonator" there is, then the situation is difficult to determine.
Li Lang likes to do rigorous logical thinking and think about the next way to attack.
………………
The underground tunnels of the City of London are eerie, especially the abandoned site in front of them, because of the seepage factor, the rainwater of the surface world flows down the cracks in the dome, washing the walls all year round, and the dampness produces a large amount of mossy vegetation.
Ditches are formed on the potholed ground, and sewage collects streams, and everyone walks through the water carefully, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
It's twenty-eight days, and this is already the third act of the world of the script.
The city of London almost fell, and the British government, although it took emergency measures, only delayed the collapse of the capital area.
At first, the army was able to resist the invasion of the monsters, but in the later stages they could only retreat to the second line, and in the end, they chose to use extreme methods. Tall walls have been erected in the outer areas of the metropolitan area to block the monsters that are active inside.
This is the "siege of the city", where the army imprisons the people who are supposed to be protected with the monsters to prevent the "destruction beasts" from continuing to invade and destroy.
However, this qiē is a war intention that does not care about the situation in the "siege", and they completely treat the people in the siege as sacrifices and living sacrifices.
Chen Lu and the other refugees were carrying a batch of supplies, stepping on sewage and traveling all the way. The supplies collected from other subways were transported back to the gathering point.
It was a makeshift gathering point where some of the survivors were concentrated, most of them because they were in the subway at the time of the disaster.
Because of a previous earthquake, the subway lines of communication were paralyzed a lot, and many of them collapsed, which also blocked some routes, and some monsters could not invade them, providing temporary shelter for people who were lucky enough to survive.
Now, the makeshift shelter is in the hands of a gang of gangsters in the City of London, and in order to avoid trouble, the raiders hide their identities and lurk in this spotlight.
The main focus in the subway is a group of ruffians active in the city of London**, most of them are not white, but immigrants, and there is a large immigrant population in London, mainly focusing on the east and north.
The majority of the British, or the wealthy of the upper class, are concentrated in the city centre and in the southwest of London. For example, the Queen of England lived most of her time at Windsor Castle in the town of Eton, a suburb of London.
In the east and north, there are slum-like settlements, mainly East Asian, Latino and, of course, black.
The focal point is dominated by a gang of immigrants, led by a black man named Walter, who was able to keep the people alive when the disaster struck.
At first, the gangsters were mild-mannered, as they didn't know much about the disaster, and most of the survivors were ordinary people, so they couldn't go too far. Walter led the gang members to manage the safety and order here, distributing food and supplies on time and in full, and often reassuring everyone...... But it didn't work out for long, when Walter found that the number of survivors was not increasing, and that police and military assistance was slow to arrive. He was well aware of the fact that this had become his and his men's "private kingdom".
Soon, he began to tear open the mask of his hypocrisy and began to show his despicable side. First of all, he used the lack of food reserves as an excuse to give only two meals of food to the people here, and the portions were pitiful. Second, with the idea that "if you don't work, you can't eat," he demanded that everyone obey their orders to work.
Among the survivors, the men were responsible for some of the physical work, while the women were responsible for the daily cooking, sewing, and sorting of supplies.
This may sound reasonable, but it was actually a small ploy by Walter and his henchmen, who reduced the food supply and left the men to do heavy labor, while the women were also responsible for the work, in order to cut their energy, squeeze their will, and make the majority subordinate to their rule. As time went on, their demands and orders increased, and it was difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to oppose them.
About two days ago, several young men tried to go to Walter and ask for some food, but were wounded by his men at gunpoint, and three of them did not receive timely treatment and soon died of infection.
Most of the survivors were silent, the gangsters had guns in their hands, and they were used to following Walter's orders, and for a while, no one resisted.

Chen Lu finished moving the last batch of supplies, and after receiving the food, he walked to the corner alone. She is a person with a strong sense of justice, but in the weakness and powerlessness shown by human nature, she can only do nothing.
"Don't try to help these survivors, we don't have the time and we don't have the ability!" Li Yuanfeng strongly rejected her idea of wanting to rescue this group of survivors.
"Think about it, how many people are there in Walter's henchmen, eleven, or twenty people, how many people are in this gathering point, there are three or four hundred people, so many people can't resist a ruffian gang with only about twenty people, Walter is just a despicable villain, not the villain of Gotham City, as long as someone fights bravely, hundreds of people can't defeat such twenty people......"
"This group of people has guns in their hands, but there are only five or six at most, not to mention how many bullets they have, let alone three or four hundred, as long as there are twice as many as Walter and his henchmen, this scoundrel will immediately kneel and beg for mercy. What he is relying on now is nothing more than the weakness of the crowd. ”
"The survivors didn't even think about resisting, otherwise there wouldn't have been only three young people who had gone to meet Walter, and as long as there was the support of others, the three of them would not have died, because that despicable villain wouldn't have had the courage to fight all the survivors......"
Ultimately...... The situation of the survivors lies with them, and their group of raiders have no need to worry about them, on the contrary, the raiders themselves are in a worse situation than they are.
A group of raiders in the capital area who stayed at the police station lost contact with them, and on the other hand, Feng Han went to apartment No. 3 and has not returned so far, although he has been contacted several times, his whereabouts have not been determined......
They found John. Sullivan found a problem as well.
Radio G2QYV has been damaged since that contact, and it is still under repair, but unfortunately there is a lack of resources at the moment, and John will not be able to fix the radio for a while.
