Chapter 24 God in the Eyes of Survivors

"Dang, Dang, Dang..." Hearing the bell ringing outside the window, Babu got up from the bed, opened his eyes and rubbed his face.

Although he was still awake, he knew it was time to get up, wash up, and get ready to start the day's work.

Others sleeping in the same room as him were also getting up one after another. Because of the limited space in the camp, single men like Babu had to sleep on the same bunk with others.

But Babu is not used to this. Although it is true that eight people living in a room is a bit crowded, everyone has a bed, a small desk, and can use curtains to separate themselves from other people. Overall,

It's pretty good.

Carrying a washbasin, a toothbrush, and a towel on his shoulders, Babu walked out of the house and walked toward the water area with others.

The water resources in the camp are limited, so the water pipes are not connected to every house. If you want to wash up in the morning, you have to queue up at the water area to use the limited number of faucets.

Babu still complains about this, because queuing to use the faucet obviously makes it impossible for you to wash up slowly and carefully, which obviously makes it difficult to have a good washing experience.

But Babu also knew that there was nothing he could do about it, so he, like most people, took a basin of water and walked aside to brush his teeth and wash his face. After washing, he came back and poured the dirty water into the sink.

Not that no one dumped dirty water in the beginning, but it was obvious that such behavior was soon punished.

There is a lack of cement in the camp, the pools are made of wood, and the ground is made of rammed earth. If it is dumped anywhere, it can easily cause problems.

Babu understood this very well. After all, there were more than 2,000 people washing up in the whole camp early in the morning. If all the sewage was dumped, the camp would definitely be a mess.

After washing, Babu returned to the house with his washbasin and toothbrush, put away the washbasin towel, and prepared to go to the canteen for dinner.

Due to limited supplies, the camp now adopts a rationing system. Everyone can only receive a certain amount of food every day, so they must go to the canteen to get food by themselves, otherwise they will run out of food.

Of course, if you really don’t want to go to the canteen, or when it’s inconvenient, you can also give your voucher to others and ask others to help you prepare meals.

But in order to avoid trouble, usually everyone will not do this unless it is really inconvenient.

After going to the canteen and getting today's breakfast, which consisted of two rations of bread and a bowl of oatmeal porridge, Babu and his companions came to the entrance of the camp.

Because they have to go outside the camp wall, even though the surrounding area has been cleared many times by patrols and watch towers have been built, there is still a certain danger, so the farming team that goes out to do farm work every day

You have to wait until everyone has arrived and collected the working tools before going out together.

Babu and the others came quite early today, and only about one-third of their group arrived.

So Babu and his companions stood together and chatted.

During the chat, someone naturally mentioned the new leader of the farming team, Demeter.

Although the incarnation of the god of agriculture can use a pseudonym, after considering the need to spread the faith, she and the incarnations of the other three gods use their own names.

Regarding this point, no one among the survivors has gone into detail. After all, in this environment, living alone is hard enough. Who has the extra energy to inquire about other people's affairs?

But even so, the people in the farming team still have a lot to talk about the new person in charge.

"Captain Demeter must have been an agriculturist before, right? She really knows the soil and crops very well. Those are things that cannot be learned by farming." A survivor who looked a little older tried to stir up the topic.

Regarding this issue, another survivor directly agreed: "Yes, she is too familiar with seeds and soil! You can tell the status of the seeds just by holding them in your hands, and you can tell the soil just by smelling it."

The condition of the soil is worse than that of a veteran farmer who has been farming for decades! She must be the most experienced agriculturist, otherwise she would not have such an ability."

"No, it could be a botanist. She knows all the plants too well. The crops we planted before have never grown very well, but after her adjustments this week, every plant has grown very well.

Good!" Others obviously had different opinions, but it was obvious that they all expressed their affirmation of Demeter's ability.

Barb did not participate in the discussion about Demeter. He and his friends were talking about Freya.

"To be honest, I'm more surprised by Miss Freya than Captain Demeter. She can really fight!" Barbu and his friends boasted about what they had seen yesterday: "I saw this when I passed by the patrol training ground yesterday.

When Miss Freya competed with Miss Gil and Miss Alice, neither of them could beat Miss Freya together. They were completely suppressed by Miss Freya alone! She was like a Valkyrie!

"

"I also heard that Miss Freya was appointed as the captain of the patrol, but many people refused to accept it. As a result, she beat down half of the patrol on her own on the first day!" Apparently this is the fastest spreading word in the world.

Apart from scandals, there was only gossip. Babu thought he was telling exclusive news, and his companion next to him told even more explosive news.

However, this was obviously somewhat untrue, because Barb knew that although many people from the patrol were present, only Jill and Alice were competing, and the others were just spectators.

But Babu did not refute his friend, he just argued with him about whether Freya could defeat the entire patrol.

It's just that although everyone was chatting enthusiastically, it could be heard that they almost didn't mention Tut and Anubis, and all the topics revolved around Demeter and Freya.

"Although I am very happy that you recognize me, I think you are not here to chat today." Just as they were chatting more and more enthusiastically, Demeter seemed to be late and interrupted their chat:

"Get your tools, let's go to work."

After Demeter said this, everyone quickly stopped talking, went to get the tools that were delivered, adjusted their mood, and got ready to go out to work.

As the suspension bridge at the entrance of the camp was gradually lowered, everyone couldn't help but cheer up, and many people seemed a little nervous.

Although they are working around the camp and their safety is relatively guaranteed, some people are still afraid of the outside of the camp, fearing that a zombie will pop up out of nowhere.

With such a mood, they and the patrol team on the side stepped on the suspension bridge made of logs and walked out of the camp.
