Looking at Xu Xiafeng's scoundrel appearance, the corners of Wang Jue's eyes twitched slightly, and after a while, a disdainful sound came out of his mouth.

"Cut ......"

No longer interested in talking to the other party, the gray-haired woman waved at Xu Xiafeng as if driving away flies.

"Fuck off, don't affect my good mood......"

Such offensive words did not arouse Xu Xiafeng's anger, only to see this faceless fierce man scratch his head and withdraw from the laboratory.

It wasn't until Wang Jue completely disappeared from sight that the smile on Xu Xiafeng's face converged and changed to a serious expression.

It seemed that Wang Jue's previous inquiry was very interesting, and at this time, Xu Xiafeng muttered and whispered in a voice that only he could hear.

"What is my heart...... Even I don't know ...... myself."

After saying that, a wry smile appeared on the fierce man's face, and he strode outside......

……

It was noon.

Although the Simingshan Refuge is located in the belly of the mountain, it is still inevitable that the sun will shine directly at noon.

In addition, the current season is summer, and the temperature has gradually climbed to an uncomfortable level.

At this time in the past, most of the survivors would choose to go back to their dormitories to rest or find a shady spot to talk.

But today it's a little different.

The empty training session was packed with survivors, all gathered around a newly erected sign, and there was a lively discussion about something.

Some of them were emotional, and they questioned the soldiers around them with red faces.

And some were worried, sighing and pleading with those soldiers.

But no matter how the survivors asked, the soldiers who maintained order around them all had a straight face, and there was no explanation at all.

The survivors shouted for a while, but seeing that the soldiers did not react, and fearing the strength of the other party, they had to silence and focus on the discussion.

"Is there not enough food in the shelter? Why do you have to cut the food supply all of a sudden......"

"Probably not, the rules on exchanging labor for food were just issued a few days ago, and if there is really an emergency for food in the shelter, then it should have been done in one step......

"Actually, it's not a complete cut, you see, it says, 'Fighters and their families, the food supply remains the same.'"

"What the hell is the manager of the Siming Mountain Shelter trying to do? Do you want to starve us ordinary people? ”

"That's right, the original food supply was insufficient, and now that it's cut in half, I won't be able to eat enough......"

"Protest, protest, protest!"

The crowd didn't know who started it, and the wave of protests gradually became louder, and finally there was a shout, which attracted the soldiers patrolling around to look sideways.

"What a noise! Aren't you afraid of attracting zombies? ”

The first captain-like soldier finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at the shouting crowd.

This person is a strengthener, roaring angrily, although the voice is not loud, but the momentum is full.

The crowd shouting in protest suddenly fell silent, and a few spoke, but most of them were faintly moaning.

After whispering for a while, a bold young man finally came out of the survivors, plucked up the courage to ask.

"Sir, it's not us who are making trouble, the food supply is not much, but now it is suddenly cut in half, isn't this a disguised way to starve us to death......

"That's right...... This is to starve us to death in disguise......"

The survivors behind the young man whispered in agreement.

"All I can tell you is that there isn't much food in the shelter, and this new rule is also issued to allow more people to live!"

"But we don't eat and drink for nothing, we work every day to participate in the construction of the fortifications of the shelter, and that part of the food is the ...... we deserve."

The young man continued to protest, only in a much softer tone.

"It's much safer to work in a shelter than to go out to search for supplies, and if you pin your head to your belt and walk on the edge of life and death every day, and get the same pay as those who work safely in the shelter, will you be happy for a long time?"

The leading soldier asked rhetorically in a deep voice, with a hint of mockery between his words.

Then, he stretched out his finger and tapped the notice posted on the sign.

"If you don't feel enough to eat, you can join the team of material searchers, in that case, you don't need to be a military force, you don't need to participate in the battle, you only need to take a little risk, you can get more food supplies than before!"

"Out searching for supplies? But we are all ordinary people, and we don't have guns yet, what's the difference between this and sending us to death? ”

Hearing this, all the survivors nodded in agreement.

Going out to search for supplies is not a trip to play, there are all kinds of dangers lurking on unknown roads, and if you don't pay attention, you may die on the spot.

The vast majority of survivors are just ordinary people with no professional training.

Even if the military would issue them guns, it would not achieve the desired self-defense effect.

"You can rest assured that all survivors who go out to search for supplies will be assigned to the designated ability team, and you only need to carry some necessary self-defense weapons."

The lead soldier explained.

In fact, he had already written all of this in detail on the notice, but the survivors didn't have the patience to read it all.

Hearing that the military would equip each team searching for supplies with capable people, most of the people's faces showed a hint of relaxation.

But there are still a few who are not reassured and complain.

"But even if those who have the ability to accompany us, our life safety cannot be completely guaranteed, when Captain Tu Wu brought us back, many people died halfway, and it was too dangerous outside......

Hearing this, the face of the leading soldier turned cold.

He didn't say anything more, just kept scanning the crowd, as if trying to find out the survivor who said it.

Everyone also noticed the change in the expression of the leading soldier, and subconsciously closed their mouths one by one, silent.

The deathly silence lasted for a long time, ending with the light cough of the leading soldier.

"Who doesn't know the dangers out there? Who wouldn't want to stay in a shelter? ”

The opening was two rhetorical questions, and the people who asked became more and more silent.

"The Simingshan Shelter has long been restructured, we are not obliged to provide you with food and water, if you want to survive, you have to contribute!"

"It's still the same sentence, if you want to leave, you can come to me at any time to sign up! Receive three days' share of food and water, then roll out of the Siming Mountain Shelter! ”

Ranwen

The soldier's last sentence was very heavy, like a sledgehammer, and smashed into everyone's hearts.

The way of the world has long changed, but some people recognize the reality and actively seek survival;

And some people are still living in their own fantasies and desperately trying to escape!

Hearing the soldier's words, everyone was silent, and no one asked again.

One after another, people from the crowd came out and registered with the soldiers to join the material search team.

But many more are standing still, not moving at all.

After all, the military only reduced the food supply, and did not cut it off completely.

In the face of starvation and death threats, most people choose the former.

Accepting the new survivors who had come to register, the lead soldier glanced at the rest of the group and couldn't help but scorn.

"It's really said by the White Commission for Discipline Inspection, a bunch of greedy people who are afraid of death......"

"Wang Zidan, say what you should say, don't talk too much if you shouldn't say it!"

Before the leading soldier could say another word, the soldier next to him reminded.

Look at the momentum of this person is on par with the leading soldier, and he should be on an equal footing with the other party.

Being reminded like this, the leading soldier named Wang Zidan no longer spoke, but silently helped his companions register the number of people.

During the registration process, another group of soldiers emerged from Vault 5, impartially targeting the survivors in the middle of the training ground.

The leader is a first-order ability who has just left Xu Xiafeng not long ago-Huang Bingtian.

And beside him is a tall and capable girl with long legs, Xu Xiaoxiao.

The group of soldiers behind him, seven or eight of them, were all flesh strengthened.

This in-depth search mission was assigned by Xu Xiafeng to his niece.

It's not that Xu Xiafeng, who is an uncle, doesn't feel sorry for his relatives, mainly because Xu Xiaoxiao's ability is strong and suitable for various special environments.

After the exogenous gene of [Fangmu Rhino] awakened in Xu Xiaoxiao's body, it gave the girl an active trigger ability.

Just like Ma Long's high-speed movement at the beginning, Xu Xiaoxiao's ability is a collision!

With great power, smash and kill everything in front of you!

Not only power, but also incredible speed!

Moreover, in the process of triggering the ability, a layer of hard keratin will grow on the skin of Xu Xiaoxiao's body, like a heavy armor, protecting the originally soft position.

To put it simply, Xu Xiaoxiao is like a runaway locomotive when he activates his ability!

If you dare to stand in front of her, you will only be knocked into the air or shattered!

It is precisely because of this that Xu Xiafeng dared to assign the task of collecting materials in depth to the girl.

Even if she encounters danger, the girl can get out of trouble with her ability and bump into a way out!

Xu Xiaoxiao, who was dressed in a capable and energetic suit, quickly walked in front of the crowd, and the experience of the past month made the girl grow up rapidly, and the youthful aura on her face had not yet receded, but it added a sense of boldness.

Facing Wang Zidan, who was checking the list on the side, the girl spoke.

"How? How many people are willing to follow along with a deep search? ”

"There are only five...... It's all ordinary people......"

Wang Zidan raised his eyes and said truthfully.

"Why is there only such a little ......?"

The girl was a little unexpected, and without waiting for Wang Zidan to say anything, she took the list in the other party's hand.

After a cursory glance, he looked at the five survivors who were waiting.

"Didn't you tell them about the reward?"

"No, but the notice given by the White Commission for Discipline Inspection is written, and I think they have all seen it, and there are few people at the moment, so I guess the main concern is about safety."

"Security ......"

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he had a headache.

It's not her style to be strong, but at the moment, when you want to go deep into an unknown area to search for supplies, only five people are far from enough.

Thinking of this, she strode forward and shouted to the remaining survivors.

"Listen to me, my name is Xu Xiaoxiao, and I was a survivor like you before."

"I know you're worried about the danger of going out to search for supplies, but we really don't have enough people and need your help!"

"As long as the survivors who go out with me this time will be given priority to receive intensive surgery and become an enhancer like me......"
