1198: Looking back to the north, sheltering survivors

"Northern Side..."

"The Northern Side is terrible!"

The young man, gripping his hands that still had traces of dried blood, spoke. Images of what he had seen and heard not long ago flashed in his mind again.

This made his body tremble slightly uncontrollably, a clear sign of fear reaching its peak!

"Actually, the disaster happened last night," he swallowed, suppressing the emotions in his heart, and recounted in as calm a tone as possible, "Last night, I was watching TV alone at home. The TV was saying something about terrorist organizations attacking the World."

"At that time, I didn't think much of it, just treated it as normal news, and before I even finished watching, I lost interest and turned off the TV."

"Because my telephone had no internet, I went to bed very early yesterday."

"Around midnight, I was woken up."

"I live on the street, and outside on the street, there were many cars crashing, and monsters I had never seen before!"

"I found out later what those things were called, they're called Zombies!"

"Besides Zombies, there were also monsters!"

"Of course, besides these monsters, I also saw living people die clearly before my eyes!"

"I was at the small shop in my house, I hid upstairs, watching a bloody massacre and disaster unfold without daring to breathe!"

"I stayed up until this morning."

"As you know, the sky is still black today."

"However, in my Town, many people, after a night of mental torment, banded together and fled outside the Town."

Hearing the young man say this, Hong Lei understood somewhat, "But they didn't escape?"

After all, this morning, there wasn't a single car from the Northern Side on the road outside!

"Yes!" The young man nodded, "Those who ran, without exception, all died at the hands of the monsters waiting in ambush!"

"After that, I didn't dare to expose myself even more."

"Around noon, the entire Town was still completely black. At that time, I could hear a sound on the streets of the Town, the sound of monsters talking!"

"No, rather than talking, it was more like chanting spells!"

"What I saw at that time were several terrifying monsters kneeling on the ground reciting spells. A black and red light emerged from among them, gathered in the air, and then seemed to merge into the void."

"Are they setting up something in advance?" Hong Lei was surprised that this young man knew quite a bit of information.

"I don't know, maybe, those monsters held this kind of ritual in many places."

Speaking of this, the young man thought of what happened next, and his emotions fluctuated violently visibly, "Also this afternoon."

"Our Town waited for the Army!"

"You don't know how happy I was when I heard the sound of the Army coming!"

"I even almost couldn't resist risking being discovered by the monsters and running directly out to meet the Army!"

"I listened to the Army entering the Town, listened to them crushing the monsters, the sound of them advancing all the way, and I waited quietly."

"The first person who came to me and found me directly was my brother!"

"After he saw me, he told me to follow the troops escorting the survivors and leave the Town, while he himself was going to install bombs."

"Originally, I thought everything would be fine. The Army that came to save us had crushed those monsters all the way. There shouldn't have been any changes later."

"But just when the Army had almost finished installing all the bombs, monsters hidden in the dark just appeared like that!"

"The Army escorting me and the other survivors encountered a Centipede over twenty meters long, like a section of a train!"

"The Army was directly scattered, with countless casualties! Some people escaped in the chaos, and I hid in the chaos."

"Later, I thought of my brother, thought of my brother still in the Town. When I went back to find him, I saw the ground was full of corpses! Perhaps it was the favor of our Dad and Mom in Heaven, who blessed me and allowed me to bring my brother out safely." The young man's words stopped here, and what happened next was what Hong Lei already knew.

"Those monsters didn't destroy the explosives?" Hong Lei heard this and thought of a point that needed logical consistency.

"No, the explosives I saw in the Town were not destroyed anywhere. Those monsters seemed to be deliberately avoiding them," the young man said somewhat uncertainly.

Regarding this, Hong Lei frowned slightly and looked up at the sky to the Northern Side, which still retained a dark red color, like a lava purgatory: "Monsters also have their own organizational capabilities. This World... is becoming more and more incomprehensible."

"Hong Ge!" Da Hu ran over quickly, "Hong Ge, another large group of people have arrived outside and want to come in for shelter!"

"More people have arrived." Getting up from the long bench, Hong Lei stretched, then told the young man to make himself comfortable and followed Da Hu to the area of the wire mesh wall.

Upon arriving at this area, it was very clear and noticeable to see that there were two dead Zombies by the wall, with several Peas embedded in their heads.

The batch of Zombies that had run over earlier had died at the hands of the Pea Shooter.

"Why should we let you in! We are already full in here. If you want to avoid Zombies, go directly to the County!"

"And there are so many of you, who knows if anyone among you has been bitten by a Zombie!" Inside the wire mesh wall, many of the people who had just been let in by Hong Lei were arguing with the people outside the wall, their faces red.

"There are Zombies behind us! We just want to take shelter here temporarily, otherwise, just by running, we can't outrun those Zombies at all!"

The people outside the wall were clearly anxious and chaotic in their tone.

More people even couldn't help but start climbing the wall!

And the people inside the wall were constantly blocking the people outside from coming in.

Until a sentence made the people inside the wall stop moving.

"Come in, everyone." After Hong Lei walked out, he attracted the attention of many people, and after his words came out, he became the focus of everyone's attention!

"Hey, brother, if you just let these people in, what if some of them are infected? Won't we be in danger?!" After Hong Lei's decision was made, many of the first batch of people who came in next to him didn't agree.

"Otherwise? Do you want to wait for the Zombies to come, the people outside get desperate, destroy the wall, and everyone's finished together?" Hong Lei questioned from another perspective.

In fact, he was taking in these people for the System's lottery.

Ten people, one ordinary draw.

The key is that there is no upper limit!

Directly taking in two hundred people is equivalent to the value of that kid Wang Yang's car!

Such a lucrative job, of course, he had to do it, and not only do it, but do it big!

As for the danger and the hidden dangers of human nature, these were nothing to Hong Lei.

People are like this.

As long as there are no problems like food shortages or safety hazards, there won't be many changes.

Taking in these people is also a short-term measure. After the second wave of Zombie tide ends, they will also go to the County, so there is no need to worry about any long-term planning.

To Hong Lei, these nearly hundred people outside were not people, but extremely friendly ten ordinary draws!

Adding the first batch of thirty-odd people, a total of thirteen ordinary draws!

Continuing to take in more people later and accumulating the number of draws, this can also be considered another fundamental source of confidence under the crisis!
