Chapter 211 'The End of the Hungry Ghost' Ideal Town and the Joint Defense Force
At night.
In a simple farmhouse in the Economic Development Zone of Lianhua City, little Allen, his hands wrapped in layers of cloth, wolfed down pigeon meat that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
His cheeks are rosy, his limbs are sound, and his body is in good condition. Compared with those humans who died of poisoning or were transformed, he is truly lucky among misfortunes.
Beside him, sat Jiang Qian who was wiping his weapons, and Xue Yang who was packaging food for emergencies.
"Are you full?"
Jiang Qian placed all the polished sharp tools, then came to sit cross-legged in front of little Allen.
Seeing Jiang Qian approaching, little Allen quickly nibbled off the last bit of minced meat, swallowed it in a hurry, and stared at Jiang Qian nervously.
Although Jiang Qian did bring him back from the brink of infection, this did not prevent him from still being afraid of Jiang Qian.
"Don't be nervous." Jiang Qian was completely different from when he was killing Dakai. "Continue what you just said, the story of 'Leader.'"
After the battle ended during the day, the rescued little Allen humiliatedly revealed the location of the human settlement "Ideal Town" to Jiang Qian and others in order to save his life.
So Jiang Qian agreed to take him on the road and continued to discuss the following important issues:
What is the environment of an ideal town like?
How do humans survive and interact, including: the composition of people in settlements, religious beliefs, whether there are leaders, and how they collaborate?
Knowing that the other party had the technology to extract crawler secretions, we asked about the development and possibilities of other advanced technologies.
In addition to settlements like Ideal Town, have you heard of other human settlements, etc.?
Jiang Qian wanted to learn more specifically about the living conditions of the residents in Lotus City in the context of the current world view.
And this will definitely help him cope with various crises and obstacles during the next 70-day exploration cycle.
Before leaving the city and finding his current place to stay, little Allen reluctantly answered the first two questions.
First of all, Ideal Town was established two years ago and is located within the No. 1 Middle School of Lianhua City.
It is said that one year after the disaster, the "leader" led an armed team to capture this place, built fortifications here, recruited scavengers with various skills, and put them to their best use, forming a place containing all kinds of technical talents.
settlement area.
Little Allen and his father moved here a year ago and chose to join Ideal Town.
So far, his father died on a mission, and he has become a "raised" child in Ideal Town.
The leader hopes that Ideal Town, just like its name, can leave a pure land for the remaining human beings in this world: to maintain themselves and stay away from the greedy "beasts" of the outside world, and to obtain certain survival resources through labor and cooperation.
In fact, this is also true. Most people with special skills have found a safer and more stable living environment here than in the outside world.
Little Allen's father is a doctor by profession. Initially, Ideal Town accepted his father's ability and value and accepted them to live here.
Later, after his father died, little Allen's extraordinary memory and reading ability were discovered, and he also gained the favor of the leader.
Yes, Ideal Town has a leader.
Interestingly, this leader's code name is "Leader" himself, which is not modest at all...
Although the entire Ideal Town has freedom of religious belief, what everyone subconsciously trusts the most is the leader. Because the leader controls the armed forces and technology of the entire settlement, the leader's decisions are always correct, and the leader also has a strong personal charm.
and demeanor.
In Ideal Town, everyone hopes to see the leader, because the leader has the power to inspire people and wash away the gloom!
He can always guide people's hearts towards the light.
…
When he heard little Allen talking about these, his eyes unconsciously burst out with a luster of fascination.
This shows that even children like little Allen admire the leader of Ideal Town, which shows that he has indeed achieved the ultimate in interpersonal interaction and influence.
"She is a woman who is close to perfection! Beautiful, dignified, caring, and devoted to the ideal town.
She knows everything about everything, and she knows everything."
Little Allen used countless complimentary words to describe the leader of Ideal Town.
Jiang Qian and Xue Yang looked at each other and caught the same thing in each other's eyes: Is the leader of Ideal Town a woman?
Indeed, it can be thought that the people who named the settlement after "Ideal Town" have some romantic feelings.
However, this female leader was described as too "perfect" by Little Allen. She seemed to have extremely high romantic feelings and was good at technical and management skills that required high rationality, which made Jiang Qian somewhat unable to grasp this.
The true characteristics of people.
Of course, more importantly, little Allen's description alone is not enough to form effective intelligence.
"So the situation inside Ideal Town is: everyone is assigned by the leader to engage in different types of work, each using their strengths, and through 'labor,' in exchange for the necessary survival resources."
"The so-called types of labor are roughly divided into two types, one is production experiments and the other is out-of-town tasks. The remuneration for production experiments is fixed, while the remuneration for out-of-town tasks will be evaluated according to the degree of risk each time, and then the remuneration will be distributed according to the completion status.
,is that so?"
"That's right." Little Allen nodded.
"Then why did your father choose to go on a mission?" Jiang Qian heard a slight contradiction and wanted to confirm the authenticity of what little Allen said.
Hearing this question, little Allen's eyes dimmed.
He whispered: "Because I am sick. And our savings and father's remuneration are not enough to exchange for a sufficient amount of antibiotics for me. Therefore, my father chose a higher-risk mission, but he is inexperienced..."
Little Allen didn't speak completely, but Jiang Qian and Xue Yang both understood.
It can be seen that the so-called rule of replacing survival resources through labor in Ideal Town is actually impossible to meet everyone's needs.
The current world is still in a state of extreme poverty and poverty.
Even for such a valuable "labor" as a doctor, he is unable to obtain sufficient antibiotic resources for his children. Such a settlement is enough to be called an "ideal town".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After this topic, we finally talked about what Jiang Qian and Xue Yang care about most: technology!
Especially technical achievements related to dealing with crawlers.
"In addition to the secretions that can confuse the smell of crawlers, I heard that the scientific research team has also formulated a drug to exterminate the crawlers. However, it is in the experimental stage. Except for the leader and core scientists, no one knows the specific effect..."...
.
When the female leader was mentioned, little Allen's eyes once again shone with a strange look.
This is "unexpected news" for Jiang Qian and Xue Yang.
Killing crawlers in batches, if verified to be effective, may be an important weapon for mankind to "come back". Of course, it may also be just a scam, a piece of cake that is enough to make all the residents boil and go through fire and water... Jiang Qian's heart
Make a trade-off: It is necessary to go to Ideal Town to find out.
Just as we were talking about the crux of the matter, there was a loud noise in the distance!
Jiang Qian and Xue Yang stood up and looked out the window of the farmhouse. They saw flames shooting into the sky in the direction of the center of Lotus.
There seemed to be an explosion there.
Jiang Qian immediately shifted his gaze and focused on little Allen who was standing aside: "In your opinion, is this something that Ideal Town can cause?"
Little Allen was startled and shook his head: "I heard very clearly that the thing that can kill crawlers in batches is potion... Gunpowder can't kill them! As long as the Queen is still there, they can continue to multiply and spread. Gunpowder can't kill them!"
Their numbers can only be reduced temporarily, but they cannot become extinct..."
He was stunned for a while, seemed to think of something again, and added:
"Perhaps it was a clearance operation by the Joint Defense Forces. They are the only ones possessing weapons of destruction of this scale..."
"Joint defense force, clearance operation?" Jiang Qian savored these two new terms.
Explosions happen again!
The sound of continuous explosions is endless, and the fire in the distance is grand and dense! What follows is the strange smell of burnt lake floating in the air...
When this wave of explosions passes,
Little Allen continued to explain:
"It is the current security unit! It is known as the last bastion of mankind. It is composed of survivor corps from many countries. It establishes a centrally integrated weapons transportation system, regularly kills crawlers in batches with large weapons, and plans to release the living space of mankind...
"
"Is it equivalent to the official army of this world?"
"The official troops... well, you can say that, they will often send people to Ideal Town for inspections, because they need to regularly count the number of remaining survivors to facilitate recruitment and so on."
Official agencies maintain contact with various settlements. Well, it turns out that this is the mode of operation... Jiang Qian quickly stored these newly acquired information and concepts into his brain.
Through communication, he has gradually discovered the differences in this chestnut-haired boy.
He "knows" a little too much.
What he disclosed to Jiang Qian during the contact was beyond the scope of what a young man who does not need to work should know.
This may be related to his ability and status as a "prodigy", but of course, it does not rule out the possibility of "making up stories".
The sound of explosions in the distance is still going on in waves.
Jiang Qian silently planned his next move: Currently, 20 super species players have begun activities in Lotus City and surrounding areas.
With this kind of random activity, the opportunities for interaction between the three parties will increase exponentially, and the countless possibilities that will be born will lead to many new clues and causes and effects.
This "chemical reaction" will only intensify as time goes by.
Until super-species players, human natives, and crawlers will soon form a new pattern.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qian suddenly realized the trap of game logic:….
The interaction between super-species players, human natives and crawlers is continuous. Every accidental small result will become the cause of another event, thus forming a new result... Therefore, since the start of the instance,
Every day, even every moment, information is undergoing tremendous changes!
If you don't actively "participate in the game" and participate in the deduction process, you will be completely discarded by the chain reaction of the high-speed deduction in the copy!
Want to wait somewhere and finally reap the benefits? This strategy will never work.
72 days is probably a dangerous hint!
"Old Jiang...Old Jiang?"
"Um?"
Jiang Qian gathered his thoughts and saw Xue Yang and little Allen staring at him curiously.
"What are you thinking about? You look so serious." Xue Yang said to Jiang Qian in Chinese.
Whenever this happens, little Allen will be like a wooden man, staring blankly at the two people communicating.
"I want to go to Ideal Town and have a look." Jiang Qian said simply.
"Ideal Town... I know that you must still be worried about what this guy said. I also think there is something wrong with him. This guy knows too many things." Xue Yang said, glancing at little Allen.
The latter was still staring at something on the ground with a blank expression.
"In addition to confirming the authenticity of this information, I also want to see if it has been discovered or captured by other players."
Jiang Qian confessed his considerations:
"I'm still more concerned about the medicine that can exterminate crawlers. If that medicine really exists and is put into use in the near future, then the structure of the world will quickly change."
"In addition, I am also very concerned about whether it is harmful to super-species players; because so far, we have not found anything in this copy that can pose a huge threat to super-species players."
"But the real difficulty now is not to enter Ideal Town. If there is enough food, we may even be able to destroy it. But even if we do this, we may not necessarily obtain the most valuable secrets."
Jiang Qian looked at little Allen and said to Xue Yang in Chinese:
"The difficult thing is..."
Halfway through the conversation, Jiang Qian and Xue Yang became alert at the same time.
Not far from the farmhouse where the three of them were, suddenly the hum of a car was heard from far and near, and - the sound of gunshots!
It's almost like gunfire.
At the same time, Jiang Qian suddenly fell to the side.
He raised his head from the shadows under the surprised gazes of Xue Yang and Little Allen. The left forehead was covered with snake scales, and they continued to spread from the forehead to the cheek...
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jiang Qian's hand was clenched tightly on his left forehead, and blood flowed from the clenched palm to his wrist.
He opened his palm with an expressionless expression, holding a flattened "bullet" in it - a sniper rifle bullet!
[By the way, currently the best one for reading and listening to books, change the source, .huanyuan install the latest version. 】
"Old Jiang!" Xue Yang said in shock, but Jiang Qian raised his hand to stop him from stepping forward. The opponent had a sniper.
Even little Allen was dumbfounded by this scene.
The strange incident of human skin being covered with snake scales caused him to have a strong physiological reaction!
Then, a cold voice came from outside the farmhouse:
"People inside, listen! This is the joint defense force..."
…
ps:
Typos and flaws will be corrected first and then corrected.
The character design of a sub-plot in the previous article has been slightly adjusted. The identity of the brother with Northeastern English accent has been adjusted from the dog wolf Ahei in the forum to the brainless fan of Canyon Lao Liu "Northeastern Home Cooking". The identity card is... to avoid being blunt.
Coincidences add interest.
I also want to say sorry to everyone. I haven’t been able to update well after I became pregnant, and I also had to move across provinces with my pets. The daily chores and physical exertion have really affected my writing status. These things are not completely over yet... But I
I will find a way to resume double updates.
It may be a little short at the beginning, but it will gradually lengthen later. This copy will not be as long as the previous one. I will try my best to complete the plot clearly in a concise length, and try my best to write down all aspects of expectations and excitement.
Intensive cultivation will definitely be done. It is being carried out in the past two days. Everyone has cultivated it...
I want to write something new for you in each copy, even if it increases the probability of failure. This is what I think I must do. Regardless of success or failure, I will write a summary of several copies after this copy.
, report on the results so far and the newcomers’ experience gains in the past few months.
