Order, discipline, and dignity became worthless in this place. Ammunition and food ran out. The company commander, who had been dealing with the normal zombies, made a wrong decision. He led all the men to rush into the car park to grab more ammunition and supplies. There were 177 people, 177 strong men, but only 35 survived. Among them, there were only 5 paratroopers who had undergone strict training.
"We were powerless to stop them …"
Zhang Xiaoqiang did not look at the agitated woman anymore. He turned around and pushed the wheelchair towards the camp. "Leave these people to Zhang Huai An!"
"What did you think when you saw those people killing people?
Was it comfortable? "
"Tell me … what do you want us to do?
Do you want us to do hard labor, or do you want me to sleep with you? "
When the pressure was within a bearable range, people would try their best to work together to deal with the disaster. But when the pressure was too great, hope, confidence, and humanity would disappear. The gathering place would become hell, a cannibalistic hell. Outsiders like them would naturally become food in the mouths of others.
Shen Xue was also hesitant to go to the gathering place. At that time, they had just received news of the gathering place. A person had appeared. It was their former comrade, one of the group that had left. He was the only one who had survived and was also the only one who had escaped from the gathering place.
Day after day, month after month, there were people who were eaten by zombies. There were people who drank unclean water and mutated. There were people who were executed for keeping food for themselves. There were also people who were executed for rape. There were also people who left on their own accord.
WH City's gathering place had been confirmed. It was not on the side that Huang Tingwei had guessed, but it was on the other side of the lake. The reason was simple. The gathering place was initially built as a temporary refugee camp. The main purpose of the camp was to rescue the city's survivors. At first, it was very effective. Many people were rescued, and many people came to the camp.
"Excuses … You guys are the same as them. It's just that they are pretending, and you guys are pretending. In fact, you are all the same …"
The survivors were divided into two groups. One group was made up of murderers, and the other group was made up of people who didn't want to stop them. Their ideals were different, and their paths were also different. The murderers left, and the hypocrites stayed, until the convoy arrived.
They stubbornly stayed near the highway and waited for rescue, trying their best to gather the survivors. The 17 paratroopers were their core strength. Under the leadership of the 17 paratroopers, they gathered food and waited for hope … After hope came despair. The strong were angry that they were treated worse than the old and the weak, and their dissatisfaction was brewing.
Shen Xue had become the leader of this small team due to an accident. She did not have any special ability, nor did she have any high level of fighting skills. It was only because she was able to find food and water. The experts in wilderness survival were the paratroopers. The paratroopers would only use the methods they learned to find food, but Shen Xue would always be able to find the blind spots of others' thinking.
"Why don't you go to the colony … Why are you staying here …"
"Ke 'er … you go in with Meow, I'll be fine here."
At this moment, Shen Xue, who had a different way of thinking compared to others, stood in front of Zhang Xiaoqiang, looking at him fearlessly.
Zhang Xiaoqiang was not angry. He smiled as he said those words, but there was a hint of coldness in his voice.
"No … It's not like that. I'm powerless to stop it. It's true, I don't want to either. I said I can find food, I said it, but no one believed me. The food is there … it's there, but …"
The composition of this group of survivors was very complicated. They had all escaped from the scene of the car accident. At first, there was a captain of the paratroopers, and there were more than 300 of them. At that time, they had not lost hope, hope in the government, and hope in the army.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's words caused Yang Ke-er to stop in her tracks. She glared at the woman with hatred, and brought Meow into the camp. In front of outsiders, Yang Ke-er still gave Zhang Xiaoqiang face.
As he was thinking, he suddenly stopped moving and turned around.
Shen Xue always led them out of misfortune. In the end, they used Shen Xue's idea to kill an S2 that had slaughtered countless people. This made Shen Xue's position in the group unshakable. They recognized Shen Xue as their leader, and not a single man dared to offend her. She also protected the other women from being offended. Their group became a harmonious group that was hard to come by in the post-apocalyptic world.
Out of the 200 people, only 80 were left. Among them, the old and the weak took up 20% of the group. The ugly thing happened. All those above 30 years old, as well as the young, were slaughtered in one night, just to save food.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's face hardened. He found out that this woman was either stupid or scheming. Her words contained all sorts of questions and traps. If he was not careful, she would take the initiative. Zhang Xiaoqiang was not afraid of it, but he found it troublesome. He did not want to hurt his brain cells.
The last wisp of smoke was exhaled from his mouth. The burnt cigarette butt was a little hot to the hand. Zhang Xiao Qiang casually threw the cigarette butt to the ground and looked at the night sky through the tarpaulin. In the dark night sky, countless sparkling stars were like pearls decorating the sky, but the shining stars could not drive away the troubles in his heart.
"My name is Shen Xue, 25 years old. I used to be the chief software designer of XX company …."
At that time, the camp was full of energy. Everyone was united to deal with the disaster. The broadcast was also calling for survivors to come to WH City. All of this changed after the appearance of the evolved zombies. The experience of the past was no longer useful. The zombies became more dangerous, and food became scarce.
"What's your name?
I don't want to ask for the third time. Tell me your identity. How to arrange for you is up to me. You have no right to question me. "
"Cough, cough, cough …." The woman's words were very direct. This kind of directness made Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was used to all kinds of survivors begging and crying, unprepared. Zhang Xiaoqiang pretended to cough. The members covered their mouths and laughed. Yang Ke-er was very angry. She stomped her feet and was about to beat this shameless woman up.
At this point, he regretted not listening to the people in the base. If he had brought 200 members, he would not be a piece of meat, but a strong dragon. Now, it was a little dangerous.
Zhang Xiao Qiang did not know the actual situation in WH City, and it wasn't true that they had started to eat human flesh. Shen Xue's words were just a metaphor, as long as it was an outsider, they would either be swallowed up by the various powers, or be exterminated. Zhang Xiao Qiang's strength was like a piece of juicy meat in the eyes of others.
Seeing the strength of the camp, the woman slightly frowned. She finally looked at Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was a little annoyed. The pair of big eyes hidden behind the glasses were no longer hazy, but a hint of wisdom. In an instant, the strong contrast made Zhang Xiaoqiang serious.
