After the merger, the Hanshui clan easily accepted Tianxiang, the new patriarch. Of course, it's not just because he saved the lives of an entire tribe. More because he brought new hope to the people of the Cold Water Tribe. After all, from the beginning of the spice barbecue to the later defeat of humanoids, this young patriarch who always seemed to have a kind smile on his face has always held an important place in the hearts of the Hanshui people. Therefore, when Soman solemnly announced the merger with the Dragons at the clan assembly, all the Hanshui people present burst into cheers of joy. In their eyes, Soman was a good leader. However, compared to this young man who seemed to be full of confidence, it was too gloomy and dull.

Just imagine, a man who hides under a thick bandage all day long, who would like him? Tianxiang has been very busy during this time. Zhan Feng and Xiaotian had already led some of their clansmen out of Dragon City. It is hoped that the base will also be an ammunition factory, and manpower will be needed. Therefore, after leaving behind Fang Xu, Xia Dong and other deliberately cultivated young people, the old clansmen who rushed to support and some of the newly joined Hanshui people rushed to the Hope Base on the second day of the merger. The massive humanoid assault caused the Coldwaters to lose part of their population. However, with the powerful particle weapons, as well as Soman's ingenious structure at the beginning of the camp, and the help of dragon reinforcements, the losses of the entire clan were minimized. Despite this, the population of the entire tribe suffered nearly two thousand casualties. In addition, some of the people who went to the Hope Base to receive the necessary training. All the hunters who stay in Dragon City. But it's only about 10,000.

Like the glorious base after the war, it is currently the most headache for Tianxiang. It's the mountains of humanoid corpses outside Dragon City. The peeling work is all over. This work was done in a very timely manner. Because, just as most of the furs had just been brought into the city, the weather had turned completely cold. The humanoid corpses also became extremely cold and hard. They are glued to each other, **, from a distance, it looks like a plain of gray-white pieces of meat.

Fortunately, it was winter, and the insects were sleeping in deep burrows. Otherwise, Tianxiang really didn't know what he should do to resolve this terrible rot crisis. Although God gave him a few months, he must come. The cold can freeze corpses, but when the spring warms up tomorrow, the swarm of insects that swarm with the stench of decay will certainly not only be interested in the dead.

The corpse must be taken away.

Tens of thousands of corpses, just with the current more than 10,000 hunters. And what can it do? What's more, the snow and ice have frozen all the corpses into a ball. If you want to move them from the snow, you have to invest a lot of manpower. "They must all be transported, no matter how costly." This was a unanimous decision made by Tianxiang after repeated discussions with Soman and some of the clan leaders. After all, one less corpse is one less dangerous city to attack.

In this way, Tianxiang divided all the current people into two parts, taking turns to carry out the city construction and the necessary daily transportation work. Since there are currently no containers capable of storing electricity, all but a few small particle cannons have been placed outside, and all the other energy-consuming weapons have been mothballed. Without energy, they can't even match even the lightest throwing gun at a critical time. As for the cannons that fired gunpowder warheads, Tianxiang placed them around the defensive ring in the city and combined them with them. There are also a large number of light and dark fire points constructed by machine guns. With just a few simple wooden stake walls, Tianxiang really didn't have the ability to defeat the sudden crowd. In contrast, the work of moving corpses is much harder. Every morning, a large number of hunters would carry the maggot wagons left behind by the Sea Tribesmen to the outside of the city, armed with steel drills and hammers. Pick up an extremely heavy corpse from the hard frozen ground, put it on a shelf, load it onto a truck, and then transport it to a hill about three or four kilometers away from the base and throw it away. In Tianxiang's words: if you do this, at least next spring, you can artificially create a hunting ground where carnivores gather.

This continued until the spring of the following year. During this time, Tianxiang was not idle, and he obtained two completely unexpected things - cement and the flesh of the rope.

Cement is one of the things that Tianxiang has been trying to obtain urgently. He knew very well the ingredients and manufacturing methods that if it weren't for the constraints of the surrounding environment of the Hope Base at that time, perhaps the current dragons would have begun to use this kind of necessary thing to build buildings. Completely by accident, in the process of transporting humanoid corpses, Tianxiang accidentally discovered that in the mountains around Dragon City, there was a kind of soil particles that were similar to those between sand and clay. Intrigued, he brought it to the city and grinded it carefully. Some of the easily available cement necessities were added, and a cement substitute with strong solidifying adhesion was obtained. Moreover, it seems to be more effective than the muddy water of ancient times. Tianxiang, who was overjoyed, immediately gathered some of the tribesmen and brought back a large number of this kind of soil from the mountains to make cement, although the output was not high, but in a winter, it could also accumulate an objective stock. Tianxiang believes that in spring, it won't be long before he will be able to see with his own eyes a beautiful and majestic dragon city rising from the desolate dark world.

As for Soman's flesh and blood, it is also one of the things that Tianxiang is interested in. From the first time he thought of breaking away from the genetic control of the "Pathfinder". The thought never went away. Therefore. After thinking about it repeatedly, Tianxiang finally decided. Remove a piece of flesh from Soman, who had healed from his injuries。。。。。。 Raw. Soman has no objection to this. In fact, since Tianxiang treated him, he had already recognized the other party's status as a friend. It's just that he doesn't understand his own flesh and blood. How is it possible to have such an effect?

Tianxiang didn't explain much, he understood that everything could only wait for this piece of meat, which contained too many unknowns, to be completely digested and absorbed by the body. in order to make a final conclusion. What exactly does it feel like, Tianxiang didn't say. But when Soman asked curiously, he glanced at the other man with interest, then lowered his voice and said something that almost didn't him off.

"It's delicious, it's delicious."

Whether this has any effect or not, Tianxiang himself does not know. After all, Soman's body has been altered by phagocytes. Aside from the faint remnant of genes in the brain, there is no trace of a "pathfinder". Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to use him to sense the object of the party group, and the only way is to wait until any one of the Zhan Feng 'Qin Guang' Yang Xiaotian and Ou Qin reunites with him. According to the development plan drawn up, the southern plains. It should be used as a tuber planting ground the following spring. Soman, however, thinks that there is no danger here, and that it may be dangerous if it is used as a simple food source. Therefore, his plan was to plant a large number of fast-growing plants here to completely obscure the appearance of the entire city. It's just that Tianxiang doesn't agree with such an opinion.

"I also consider what you say. However, I think this is the best place to plant trees. "Tianxiang's hand redrew a line to the south of the city map, dozens of kilometers beyond the plain." Are you crazy? Over here? So far? Soman was a little surprised.

"I'm not crazy." Tianxiang smiled: "Do you think that with our current range, how many people can be accommodated?" ”

"No more than fifteen thousand at most." Soman thought for a moment and added, "If it is more crowded, it will probably reach about 17,000." ”

"Yes, so in such a small circle, where should those large defensive weapons be placed?"

"Do you mean to ......?"

"My goal is to build a central city with a capacity of about 50,000 first. Then, expand and extend in the surrounding area. Therefore, the fast plains to the south can only serve as a source of food. "But what about the safety of the city?" Soman was worried.

"Safety is definitely not an issue." Tianxiang said confidently: "We have a large number of long-range attack weapons. It has a range sufficient to cover the entire vicinity. We only need to set up a large number of defensive traps on the outskirts of the city, and set up some obstacles outside this line, and we can eliminate a large number of attackers in a short time. Coupled with the fact that a strong wall can be erected next spring, I believe that even a double number of humanoids will not be our opponents. ”

"Fifty thousand? So much? How to solve the problem of food? "Soman is still a little worried." Hehe! You don't know the yield of this kind of thing. Tianxiang gently picked up a ball of roasted tubers at hand and said with a smile: "Next year, when it comes to the harvest season, it will surprise you." ”

“…… You have the final say, after all, you are the patriarch. Soman smiled bitterly twice, and stopped insisting. It's just that the plan that Tianxiang showed him next made him feel involuntarily excited twice. Tianxiang seems to be born to be a careerist full of greed and **. He actually thought of avenging Soman. Of course, this is just a nominal façade. The real intention is still the other half of the Hanshui tribe with a population of tens of thousands after splitting.

"I'm afraid it won't work." After listening to Tianxiang's entire plan, Soman said bluntly: "Their position is too far away from us. With ordinary foot travel, it will take at least two months. Not to mention。。。。。。 "I've been walking for more than a month from Base Hope here. Hehe! It's not like they've eaten your race." Tianxiang smiled and made an exaggerated stuck.

"It's different." Soman shook his head helplessly: "At that time, your first contact with the land has already gained the trust of many clansmen. Besides, you appear as a supporter, and you will naturally be accepted by them. However, the two-month journey is no joke. Once all supplies are lost, the entire expedition will be wiped out."" Okay, okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Seeing that the situation was not good, Tianxiang hurriedly changed the topic: "How much grain do we have in stock now?" ”

"It's not a lot, but it's enough to eat until next spring."

"That's good." Tianxiang put away the smile on his face and said, "There is still a month, and winter is coming to an end." When that time comes, I'll go back to the base and lie down. From there, lay a telegraph line to connect with the Dragon City. I thought, work here. I'm afraid it's up to you to preside over it for the time being. "Huh! Missing your wife? Soman laughed.

"Nonsense!" In an instant, Tianxiang, whose mind was full of Su Ya's appearance, suddenly remembered that Soman no longer had the ability to do so, and hurriedly changed his words: "Don't say it, don't say it......"

"Nothing, I can understand." Man said lonely: "No need to be like this, I'm not as fragile as you think......" "If there is a way to heal......" Tianxiang suddenly remembered that in the glorious base, those oval-shaped culture tanks. If there is enough energy, is it possible to repair Soman's body?

It's just that Soman doesn't seem to have much hope for this suggestion. In desperation, Tianxiang had to transfer all his energy to the construction of the city first. Winter comes quickly. I was also in a hurry. The hard earth, which had been condensed by months of ice and snow, began to become moist and fluffy in the warm spring breeze. The snow soaked in the soil meandered down the invisible underground ditches and flowed in all directions. Wake up sleeping bugs.

Hungry! Boundless hunger, intense hunger! This is the only title song in the Dark World every spring. In order to fill their hungry stomachs, the bugs that wake up from sleep don't care about the taste of food. There's not much to eat in the spring, and the bugs definitely don't pick and choose at this time. Merely. This year's spring surprised all the scavengers around Dragon City. They really couldn't have imagined that there would be such a sumptuous feast of rotten meat, quietly waiting for their arrival in the warm spring breeze. The humanoid corpses around the city have been cleared. Although Yidong's labor was only half of the scheduled task, Tianxiang was already very satisfied. At least, there were no humanoid corpses or anything like that in the area nearly a kilometer from the edge of the city. In other words, even if the bugs want to eat, they have to do it outside of this range.

However, to be on the safe side, he ordered all his clansmen to retreat into the second wall and wait quietly for the carrion-eating insects to enjoy a sumptuous feast. "It's so much better than the glorious base." In the patriarch's hut, Tianxiang listened to the sound of "chirp" from the mouths of tens of thousands of insects in the distance, stuffed a piece of barbecue meat into his mouth without any scruples, and comfortably said to Soman, who was full of nausea and discomfort: "At least, I can only hear the sound now, and I can't smell the smell for the time being. Think about the '''''' alas! That stinks''''''" "You... If you say it again, I'll cripple you... Vomit... Vomit... "Soman is obviously the first time this has been the case. For days, he couldn't eat anything at all, rotting corpses and munching bugs, which was disgusting to think about. He really couldn't figure out how Tianxiang, a seemingly unusually healthy person, would have such a good appetite at such a time.

"Think about it, delicious!" Tianxiang took a serious bite, puffed up his cheeks on both sides, and smiled evilly: "Listen, they eat so happily." ”“…… Wow......"

Soman can't remember how many times he's vomited today. In short, the contents of the stomach have almost been cleared......

Such days lasted for almost a week. It wasn't until Tianxiang approved the clansmen to open the camp gate and walk out of the city that everyone was surprised to find that the original hellish scene was no longer there. Instead, clumps of fresh green grass emerge from the ground. I don't know who started it, and all the clansmen immediately cheered in unison. After experiencing death and fatigue, they discovered for the first time that life is such a meaningful thing.

On the fertile plains to the south, patches of planted tubers are planted in the newly turned land. Although the area planted is not large, it is a place of infinite hope.

The hill to the north is surrounded by clusters of newly transplanted plants. It won't be long before it becomes a paradise for herbivores. It is also a natural pasture that supplies people with meat. The hills to the west are rich in underground resources, which will provide hunters with more self-sufficiency in the future.

The ruins of the city in the east are the legacy of ancient humans. No one knows how many secrets, how many stories, and how many relics are buried in it...... At the center of all the districts is a temporary human settlement made of wood and stone. From a distance, it appears to be little more than a defensive stronghold, or a temporary dwelling place for hunters. But no matter what, this will be the place where the earth's civilization has been destroyed for hundreds of years and re-emerge, and it will also be the place where human beings will re-rule the earth.

A city of hope, on the rise.
