Amidst the wind and sand, the team walked a certain distance, but unexpectedly met an acquaintance, another group of abandoned people who lived with them at the bottom of a stone pit.
They set off much earlier than Tang Zhen and others, but their speed was much slower. In addition to the wind and sand that blew up from time to time, the main reason was that their food was too poor, so they couldn't sustain it for too long.
of walking.
When normal people do not lack food, even if they skip a meal occasionally, their legs will not become weak and they will wobble constantly when they walk. However, for abandoned people who have not had enough to eat for a long time,
Traveling long distances is indeed an extremely painful thing.
They had to walk slowly to reach their destination successfully, and even if they could eat some food on the way, the amount was pitiful.
Although they carry a lot of food, they need to last for several days, because near the monster city, the possibility of the abandoned people getting food is very slim, because for some unknown reason, there are no real plants and animals around the monster city.
animal!
If you see vivid animals and plants in the monster city, you can be sure that they are all mechanical creatures, but they are just too real.
When they saw Uncle Jim and others, the neighbors looked at each other and then subconsciously kept a certain distance.
As a result of the incident during the Darkest Day, there was no longer a group of abandoned people at the bottom of the stone pit, and it was still the largest group in the world.
The relationship between these two groups of abandoned people is quite close, so they often unite to bully Uncle Jim and the others. Especially after Morris' parents and others died in Monster City, they often humiliate the old, weak, sick and disabled.
Although it did not reach the level of murder, it still made Morris and the others go through a very difficult time. Even when they were on the garbage mountain, they were often snatched away by them.
It wasn't until Uncle Jim took over the heavy responsibility and fought back against the two groups of abandoned people that the other party's behavior moderated, but he still caused them some trouble from time to time.
When that group of abandoned people was attacked by the radiation monster, the group of abandoned people who had a better relationship with them did not take any action. Instead, Uncle Jim came to help.
Although Jim and others also chose to take action under the pressure of Tang Zhen, no matter what the reason was, they were much better than these guys who stood by and watched!
Even after Uncle Jim and others took in the survivors, this group of abandoned people secretly laughed at them, thinking that there was something wrong with Jim and others for taking in a few children who were unable to search for food.
In this era of scarce resources, a larger population means greater pressure to survive. There is no group of abandoned people who will add members at will to share the limited food.
However, with the disappearance of their allies, Uncle Jim and his friends began to have the same strength as this group of abandoned people, which also made the other party start to feel wary, fearing that Uncle Jim and his friends would take revenge for what happened in the past.
At the same time, this group of abandoned people looked at Tang Zhen with hidden eyes. They had reason to believe that the delicious food Uncle Jim and the others had eaten these days was most likely brought by this man of unknown origin.
Although I really wanted to find out the origin of those fragrant foods, in order to avoid intensifying the conflict between the two parties, the peeps and investigations were naturally conducted in secret.
Therefore, although the two groups of abandoned people met, they were strangers to each other, and they quickly distanced themselves in the wind and sand.
Continuing to move towards the mountains ahead, Tang Zhen and the others encountered many teams of abandoned people one after another along the way. The largest number was dozens of people, but the smaller number was only two or three.
Teams of five or six people like Tang Zhen's are almost everywhere.
Everyone is dressed very similarly, but there are still some relatively wealthy abandoned people who hang metal weapons on their bodies and also use some accessories to indicate their identity.
Even though the whole world is on the verge of collapse and the abandoned people are almost deprived of their meals, the consciousness of class and comparison has never disappeared!
However, to the residents of the floating city who are above them, the behavior of the abandoned people is simply ridiculous. Even the citizens will observe the lives of the abandoned people for a long time and regard them as ants raised in a glass cabinet.
Tang Zhen and his team were actually inconspicuous as they walked among the crowd, especially since the weapons and equipment were covered by clothes, and outsiders could not see any clues.
If those weapons were taken out at this time, I am afraid that they would immediately attract the large number of abandoned people to covet them, or even directly snatch them!
The abandoned people in this world rarely fight because there are not many interests worth fighting for. However, if they see these weapons, the abandoned people will naturally have a reason to fight for them.
A series of footsteps came, and a large group of abandoned people appeared in the wind and sand. Compared with other abandoned people, the equipment of this group was luxurious.
I don't know what kind of bad luck they had, but they actually owned a large number of metal weapons. From the style of the weapons, it was determined that they should come from a certain scrapped robot.
Although the appearance of the weapon was strange, it did not affect its lethality at all. Looking at the extremely sharp edges, people subconsciously chose to avoid them.
This group of abandoned people obviously also knew the fear of others, so they behaved unscrupulously. They didn't dodge at all when walking, and even deliberately collided with the smaller groups of abandoned people.
Perhaps they use this method to show their strength and let other abandoned people know how powerful they are, so that when they compete for food seeds in the monster city, they will subconsciously avoid them.
In this way, they can have an area all to themselves, and their chances of harvesting will be greatly increased.
Although they haven't entered the monster city yet, the battle between the abandoned people has already begun!
As a result, Tang Zhen and others who were on their way were randomly targeted by this group of abandoned people. They quickly approached from behind and began to provoke them.
"The guy blocking the road in front of me, get out of my way!"
A sharp and somewhat arrogant voice sounded. Morris, who was walking behind the team, turned around and saw dozens of abandoned people standing behind him. The eyes behind the goggles were looking at them indifferently.
Morris had experienced this kind of thing more than once, so he immediately realized that this group of abandoned people was deliberately looking for trouble.
Seeing the opponent's number of people and equipment, Morris dodged aside without hesitation, and at the same time reminded Uncle Jim and others to get out of the way to avoid unnecessary fights.
Choosing to retreat and give in when you are weak is not a sign of cowardice, but a simple and mature wisdom for survival.
Only when you are alive can you have everything, but when you die, you will have nothing!
After hearing Morris's reminder, Uncle Jim and others turned around, glanced at the provocative group of abandoned people, and silently chose to give way. Like the young Morris, these older abandoned people,
Understand better what you should do.
However, the way Uncle Jim looked at the leader seemed very complicated, and there was obviously some special reason behind it.
Even Tang Zhen followed and stepped aside, looking at the group of arrogant abandoned people with a half-smile, waiting for their next move.
"Boy, your sword looks very familiar. It seems to be the one I threw away a few days ago!"
When he heard that the other party suddenly said these words after Morris and others gave way, the smile on Tang Zhen's face became more intense.
