As expected, his speed was much faster at full speed.
During this time, the Red Alert soldiers also ran into the territory of a monster group. Both sides started a battle. Although the monsters fought bravely, they could not stop the Red Alert soldiers.
Although they didn't attack the Red Alert soldiers, they blocked their way. In order to leave the jungle as fast as possible, Natasha still gave the order to attack quickly.
It could only be said that they were unlucky.
"Tsk tsk." Yi Luo looked at the corpses on the ground and shook his head.
The world was unpredictable. Even if one lived in their own territory, it was possible that they would be destroyed at some point, whether it was for monsters or humans.
Yi Luo, who was already used to such a scene, did not continue watching. The Red Alert soldiers were very familiar with the process of dealing with the corpses, digging out the cores, and clearing the road.
Next was the boring and long march.
Yi Luo, who had nothing to do, fell asleep in the chair after a while. Natasha saw this and took a blanket from the lounge to cover him.
……
In the Red Alert base.
"Commander Natasha, the people who were released by the commander are back.”In the Red Alert base, a soldier said to Natasha with a communication device.
Natasha thought for a moment. She had too many things to deal with every day and could not remember who the soldier was talking about.
The person who was released…
That should be Owl and the others. She still had some impression of that adventurer team.
Natasha rubbed her eyes and looked at Yi Luo, who was sleeping soundly." The commander is resting. Tell them to find a place to rest first. We'll talk about the specific arrangements after the commander wakes up.”
The commander had his own arrangements for those people. He would decide how to deal with them after Yi Luo woke up.
The city lacked everything except for buildings. Before the apocalypse, the housing prices were worthless. No one wanted to live there for free.
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers replied. The base was still in order.
A moment later, the soldiers walked out of the stadium.
On the streets, the scythe mecha patrolled back and forth.
Although the monsters in the city had been cleared, due to the existence of the spatial rift, the possibility of monsters emerging could not be ruled out. It was necessary to patrol and keep watch every day.
"You guys find a place to rest first." The soldier's words were concise and his tone was cold. As soldiers created by the system, they had always had this attitude.
Owl didn't say anything, but nodded. The guards of the Evian Army had decreased by quite a bit, so he could guess that the commander had probably left with his men. He didn't ask any more questions, since he was still an outsider to the Evian Army. He shouldn't ask questions that shouldn't be asked, so he handed the box in his hand to the soldier.
Two soldiers immediately pointed their rifles at his head. If he made the slightest mistake, the bullets would immediately blow his head off. One of the soldiers took the box and opened it. There was a pile of cores inside. After confirming that there was no problem, the two soldiers put down their guns.
"Then we'll leave first." After Owl finished speaking, he left.
The mobilizer nodded and did not say anything. He turned around and left. The mission was completed.
"Tsk, what kind of attitude is that?" Aiya stuck out her tongue and said indignantly. Boss had given them all the cores he had accumulated over the years to show his sincerity, but he still had this cold expression and tone.
"We have a favor to ask of them now. What else do you want to do?”Chen Zheng said helplessly.
There were too many loopholes in the story that they used to fool the fatty. He would realize it sooner or later. Because of the war between the apostles and humans, they could not go to the other settlements for the time being, let alone those that they had not explored yet.
They had come here to seek the protection of the Evey Army. A deal was a deal, but what kind of face could they give you?
What Chen Zheng did not know was that the mobilized soldiers had this attitude towards everyone except Natasha and Yi Luo. Only the commander and the officers created by the Red Alert System would receive their respect.
"I think they are more like soldiers than the soldiers in the colony.”The old man smiled and said.
To put it nicely, the soldiers in the colony were soldiers, but to put it bluntly, they were not much different from bandits in terms of quality. Every time they patrolled, they liked to touch women. No one dared to resist under pressure. Anyway, they would not lose a piece of flesh.
The mobilized soldiers were completely different from them. They were swift and decisive. Their actions were not sloppy at all, and their expressions were solemn.
He didn't even spare a glance at the ponytailed girl and Aiya.
"Ah! Boring." Aiya shouted. Her life was so interesting before.
"This is reality." The ponytailed girl sighed. No one knew who would die in the next ambush.
He did not know when the next accident would happen.
"Speaking of which, with this weather, it's almost winter.”As they walked, Chen Zheng stretched out a hand and felt the temperature in the air.
"It's about time.”The old man muttered something and then said.
Winter.
In this world, other than those monsters that ate people without spitting out bones, it was the existence that people did not want to face the most. Some crazy people even called it a white demon.
Compared to the winter after the apocalypse, the winter before the apocalypse could only be said to have small snowflakes. There was no comparison between the two.
When winter arrived, the entire world would be covered in snow. The sun would not be seen, and the temperature would drop sharply. Even the powerful monsters would choose to find a place to hibernate and rest. This situation would last for a full three months. The snow would cover the sky and the sun would not be seen. It would be difficult to distinguish between day and night. White and darkness, these two completely out of place terms, would perfectly fuse together.
If they left the colony, no one could survive two hours alone outside. Just walking out for a few minutes was enough to freeze their faces. Two hours was enough for a living person to be turned into a popsicle by the ice and snow.
The cold wind howled, just like every year.
At this time of the year, a large number of people would die of cold and hunger. The colony was still fine. In order to maintain order, they would regularly distribute some things that were not too much but lacked the basic needs to maintain life.
A large number of poor people would desperately fight for the opportunity to clear the snow in exchange for more chances of survival. After all, if no one cared about the slowly accumulating snow, it would only take three to four days for more than half of the houses in the colony to be covered in snow. It was a terrifying disaster!
The adventurer teams would prepare food and cores in advance. At least half of the harvest in a year would be used to survive this winter. Scarce food, heat provided by electricity, and time spent in the gathering place were all necessary to maintain life.
The higher-ups would also deliberately increase the price of the supplies at this time, maintaining it at a level that was much more expensive than usual, but at a level that the residents could barely afford without causing a riot. Although this kind of behavior made people gnash their teeth, what could they do?
The gathering place was still okay. Countless people starved to death in the slums of the base every year. Only a portion of the factory workers were placed separately by the base. After all, energy was scarce in the post-apocalyptic world. No matter how high-tech things were, they were not as cheap as manpower.
However, this year's situation would definitely change. The war between the base and the settlement of Mount Qingyang had changed a lot because of the apostles. The most obvious change was that no one would freeze to death in the slums.
"This is probably the first time the colony hopes for winter to come quickly.”Owl said as he walked.
Winter had arrived. Even the apostles could not suppress the monsters. If this stalemate continued, the monsters would retreat sooner or later.
Otherwise, they would have frozen to death before they could break through the fortress. The colony was eager to see this good thing as soon as possible. When winter passed, they would directly dig out the cores from their corpses.
"I wonder how the Evey Army will deal with this winter.”Chen Zheng turned his head to look at the huge scythe mecha. His legs made a loud sound as they touched the ground.
Even though they were at war, when they left, the gathering place was already preparing for the arrival of winter. The Evey Army seemed to not care about this at all.
The cold was only one of the scariest things about winter.
It was as if every different environment would give birth to different creatures. Those in the water could swim, and those in the wilderness could run fast. Every creature was constantly evolving to adapt to the environment, not to mention that it would affect the season of life.
It was the same in winter.
The light snowflakes piled up and were even more shadowy than the soil. However, there was such a creature, the Snow Snake. The hard snow layer was no different from cotton to them. Their numbers were huge, and every time they moved, there were hundreds and thousands of them. No one dared to provoke them.
Just this creature alone was enough to give humans a headache, not to mention the other snow creatures.
"Let's take care of ourselves first." the old man said.
The few of them passed by a corner and entered the building.
"Yahu!" Aiya rushed into the room and picked up the little girl. She took out a piece of jerky from her clothes and handed it to the girl.
The girl took the jerky and ate it in big mouthfuls. The jerky was not big to begin with, and for this little girl who was still in her puberty stage, there was not much. She finished it in two or three drinks.
Aiya hugged the little girl and rubbed against her, not caring about the little girl's dirty and greasy hair. Every time, she would only obediently let Aiya hug her after feeding her.
Owl patted the little girl's head. They didn't know when they would be able to return, so they naturally couldn't leave the little girl alone in the colony.
"Rest first." Owl casually found a corner to sit down and said.
The others nodded. Outside the window, there was not a single speck of dirt in the white sky. Something was accumulating in the sky.
