Perhaps because of the vast area and sparse population, although the town was in dilapidated condition, Jack and Ada Wang still found a few survivors.
These survivors were all local residents of small towns. They were lucky enough to survive thanks to the shelters they built themselves and the guns that are essential to every household in the United States.
Perhaps it had been too long since they had seen a living person. When they saw Ada Wang and Jack appear, they almost didn't shoot at them.
However, after learning that they were also survivors, these people quickly showed kindness.
It had been so long since I had seen a living person that I almost thought I was the last person alive in the world. These survivors showed great enthusiasm for the fact that there were other living people.
Jack and Ada Wang also showed friendliness and had a friendly conversation with them, learning a lot about the town.
After understanding the situation in the town, Jack and Ada Wang returned to the gas station and did not do anything else.
"You're back? How is the situation in the town?" Chen Mo saw the two people coming back and asked them about the situation in the town.
"There are about three or five survivors in the town, and they seem to be in good condition. They should be connected with the survivors on the nearby farm. At least they are not short of food, and they even have enough food to make wine." The two of them said.
Sitting down next to Chen Mo, Ada Wang reported to him the information she had just obtained from the town.
At this time, Chen Mo had already built a fire, and he and Dragon Emperor were sitting by the fire, warming themselves up. There was also an iron pot hanging on the fire, which contained their evening meal.
Jack put a paper bag in his hand in front of Chen Mo and said to him: "These people are very friendly and gave us some food, but they are also very wary. Although they have always been friendly, they are not very friendly towards us."
We have always been on alert.
When Ada and I were talking to them, although they almost shot us with guns at the beginning, they never put down their guns later on, they just didn't point them at us."
Hearing what Jack and Ada Wang said, Chen Mo touched his chin and stirred the pot on the fire with a spoon: "It sounds like these survivors are living a good life? How many zombies are there in the town?"
"There are no zombies. It seems that they have been specially cleaned up. All the zombies that can be seen on the street have been cleaned up. Only some zombies hiding in the buildings have not been cleaned up." When I was in the town just now, Ada
Wang had made special observations, and she commented: "It can be seen that the overall quality of those survivors is very good. They have at least received military training and have a certain degree of organization. They are not stragglers."
Ada Wang's comments made Chen Mo look at the survivors in the town with admiration, but when he thought about it carefully, it was not surprising.
Several years have passed since the outbreak of the biochemical crisis, and those who can survive such a long period of time have already exercised.
Those ordinary civilians who didn't understand anything were probably already dead at the beginning of the biochemical crisis. Those who survived had some abilities.
"Then have you asked them if they are willing to move to other places?" Chen Mo saw that the vegetable porridge in the pot was almost ready, scooped out a bowl and handed it to Ada Wang: "If someone builds a new settlement,
Are they willing to go?”
Taking the vegetable porridge handed over by Chen Mo, Ada Wang blew it twice and took a sip before continuing: "I'm afraid there is something wrong. They are not very willing to leave here. I have tested them and said that I heard the news.
It is said that some people have established new settlements, but they say that their lives are very stable now and they would not consider leaving.
But this is normal. They should be relying on nearby farms to obtain food. There may be some animals that survive, and they can also obtain meat. In addition, they have weapons and are surrounded by acquaintances, so they are unwilling to leave.
Common sense.”
Chen Mo nodded clearly. This news was certainly not good news, but it wasn't too bad either.
He wants to develop this world, and population is a very key factor.
According to Chen Mo's pre-planned plan, he will find a place to establish a settlement first, and then gradually gather the survivors to start rebuilding the world.
And Anubis and the others will also perform miracles after arriving in this world, spread their faith, restore and transform this gradually dying world, and bring it back to life.
As for what we are encountering now, the survivors are unwilling to leave the place where they currently live. This is actually what Chen Mo expected.
After all, in the final analysis, I have food and shelter, and my life is pretty good. Why should I follow a group of strangers out of my warm and comfortable home and go to a so-called new settlement?
But this is not a problem. After a new settlement is established, as long as it can build a reputation and spread the news, survivors will naturally gather towards the settlement spontaneously.
This is just like Arcadia in the fourth movie. The Umbrella Company uses news about Arcadia to attract survivors into their trap.
So as long as a settlement is really established, the rest will be easy to talk about.
"It seems that we need to arrive in Los Angeles first, and then establish a settlement so that we can carry out our plan." Chen Mo served himself a bowl of vegetable porridge. After drinking it in a slurp, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Ada Wang
He said to Jack: "If that's the case, then you all have a good rest at night. We will set off early tomorrow morning and try to arrive in Los Angeles early so that we can start our plan."
Hearing what Chen Mo said, Jack and Ada Wang both nodded seriously and ate their dinner in silence.
The Dragon Emperor on the side seemed to think that it was too troublesome for Chen Mo to do this, so he said: "Why not use a large army to search the population? Why is it so troublesome?"
"Although the army searches for people quickly, it cannot bring these people back. It will also take a lot of time to suppress their resistance and escape, which will make people more troublesome. It is better to let them surrender themselves, which can unite people's hearts more."
Chen Mo explained to the Dragon Emperor and gave up his plan to directly use the army to capture the survivors.
Although the Dragon Emperor was more like a tyrant in some aspects, he did not understand the benefits of winning the hearts of the people, so he nodded to express his understanding after thinking about it seriously.
After the four of them finished their dinner, the Dragon Emperor used his military talisman to summon a small group of soldiers to keep watch. Then they went to bed and prepared to leave for Los Angeles early tomorrow morning.
