2076年7月19日，清晨9点03分

Gerry worriedly recorded this intermittent radio transmission. This was what Gerry would do every day before he was completely controlled by the monsters. He would always receive some incomplete radio communications, but many of them were It was already a month or two ago.

Through these scattered news, we can get a general idea of ​​the situation in the outside world. Although Gerry still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, one day he will suddenly be notified by the government to let everyone go back to the city, but obviously This is no longer possible.

The world is over!

Gerry scribbled this line on the last page of his notes and closed the notebook when several people walked in.

"Those bastards are too much. It's just a few kilograms more. They want us to give an extra kilogram of food."

Gerry looked very angry at the few people who came in. The food in the field was carefully cultivated and cultivated by them every day.

"As long as you can survive, you will always get water."

Gerry said, this is the current top priority in their town. Now the engineers are trying to find a way to use some crude equipment to make some tools and go to the nearby exploration. As long as they can find some water sources, they don’t have to be restricted by the water factory. side.

Now the road leading to the water plant is interrupted here. Those guys made a checkpoint with some iron plates dismantled from the car. They need to send some food there every week. Water is currently a scarce thing in the town. They can get a maximum of 500 grams of water, plus the water for irrigation. The daily water consumption is nearly 10 tons, and they need to take out 1 ton of food.

There are still more than 7000 people in the town, and the current food production is enough to supply everyone. They are still stepping up efforts in reclamation, and they still owe nearly 1 ton of food to the people at the water plant.

These foods have already been said, and they will be supplemented together when they are harvested next time, and the other party also agreed. After this week, Gerry went to talk to Vera again, but they still broke up on bad terms.

Today's food distribution is a problem. We can only let those who rest eat less and those who work eat more. Everyone agrees. Now there are more than 300 townspeople in the original town. Leides has planned to Gather them together, go directly to the water plant and talk to them, if this continues, their food will not be enough for everyone.

After finally driving the monsters out of the town, but now in such a predicament of water shortage, Gerry knows that it is not easy to live, at the moment when the world has been destroyed.

The few people who came in to negotiate looked depressed. Now people in the whole town are accusing those guys from the water plant of robbery. At such a time, everyone can only survive if they are united, but their actions are no different from robbers. .

"It's not going to work like this, Gerry, if we take down the water plant, it will be good or bad."

"No, we have to avoid casualties and conflicts now. If the conflicts continue, neither of us will get good results."

Gerry's current goal is very clear. After trying every means to find the water source, at least the town will not be so passive.

The current residential area of ​​the town is only two-thirds, and most people still live near the farmland, because the daily electricity is limited.

"Lukin, you take people there, bring strong light equipment and weapons, bring at least 100 people there, 50 people will dismantle them, 50 people will be on guard, dismantle some things on the car, and take them to them."

The young man named Lu Jin gave a hum, he turned around and walked away. Gerry was nice to Lu Jin before, but since he came in, this young man who is only under 20 years old has treated Gerry like a big brother. He obeyed his words.

"Gerry, why don't I take someone to check it out, maybe."

"Don't have such thoughts Lukin for the time being, if there is a conflict, we will not have good fruit to eat."

Looking at the few people who left, Gerry planned to go to the factory to have a look. Now he had to find a way to increase the production capacity of electricity. Slowly train them to serve as an effective defense force for the town.

Everything can only be done step by step, war will inevitably come, and there is no possibility of peace talks, unless Verla can be killed, but according to what Redes said, Verla now has her own guards, those who The young hunters in the village acted as her guards. These hunters have been active in the mountains and forests since they were young, and they are very powerful in fighting.

Leides has seen the power of these hunters with his own eyes, and the people in the water plant basically obey Vera's orders now. Coupled with the condition that Vera now proposes for water for food, they can live well. Nobody wants to come to town.

Even the original townspeople in the town wanted to go to the water plant. When Redes talked about the water plant issue with the original townspeople, many townspeople still complained about these outsiders, disturbing them Everything, words revealed dissatisfaction.

And people from outside rarely talk to the townspeople. Many small groups have already formed, including some people in the town who also complain. It's just that the people on Gerry's side are in control of weapons and technology. They can only obey orders.

It is impossible to continue like this. Gerry recalled everything in the army in the past. No matter what kind of circle and class, there will always be different small groups. It is not easy to achieve the current balance.

At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and Redes limped in.

"Gerry, I'm going to negotiate with them tomorrow. What do you think we should do to make Vera let go."

Gerry laughed.

"I think it's better to forget it, Redus, but that guy must not be allowed to come out of the barn."

Redus hummed.

"Just give him food and water once a day, and he agrees to stay in the barn and be delivered by that woman named Suzy."

The two were talking about Phyllis, who is the carrier of the annihilation virus, and there is also a no-light zone over there. Redes has sent people to guard some places with light sources on the periphery, in order to prevent the carrier from coming over. It can move freely in the dark area, but cannot enter the light place.

"Redes, you'd better take a good rest and wait for your legs to heal before going over. After all, the people on your side have a lot of opinions now."

Redes knew what Gerry wanted to say, so he just nodded. It is true that in the past few days, during the conversations with the townspeople he knew in the past, many of them felt that it was unfair. Some houses and land belonged to them, but these outsiders But they didn't feel any guilt at all. It was obvious that they caused the town to become like this. Some townspeople even planned to take their things to the water plant.

Internal and external troubles are the current situation in the town, and Redes also knows that if this continues, the town will face collapse again in a short time, especially those monsters wandering around the town. Once they are dragged into the darkness by them, Never come back.

People have disappeared one after another in the past few days. Although the guard has been strengthened, when the night comes, monsters will wander in the mountains and forests, and it is impossible to go up the mountain to sweep them.

"It's just one step at a time."

At 10 o'clock in the morning, most people in the town began to work in the farmland in rotation. Many people would scramble to work in order to get a little more food, but the number of people working every day was limited. Just like a lively market, people gathered everywhere.

Only the south side of the town is empty, and some people are pulling the metal mesh, trying to completely isolate the southern part.

Especially the auditorium that monsters would go to every night before, it was full of human skeletons, many people looked creepy, some people suggested to burn it down, but in the end, some former townspeople in the town Finally give up amidst the noise.

Behind the auditorium is a large mountain forest with most of the plants withered. It looks a bit scary, and monsters can be seen wandering in the forest from time to time.

"It won't last long."

At this time, next to a big tree, Kuris quietly watched the situation in the town, surrounded by controlled parasites, nearly a thousand parasites escaped, Kuris was not in a hurry, he planned to Slowly study, at this time behind Kuris, on a piece of flat ground, on a few tree stumps piercing the ground, black and red tentacles are crawling all over the tree stumps, there are a few people captured a few days ago, they seem to be dying .

Curris walked over with a smile, looking at a terrified man, who kept shaking his head, as if he still had some strength.

"It's okay, soon you will become our kind."

The more Curlis researches, the more he feels the magic of this parasite. He has already surpassed the scope of human beings. This kind of alien object is not the first time Curlis has seen it, but it is in the asteroid landing plan. Before, I have seen some materials sent back by top-secret detection robots.

That's why Curris and his team rushed to the coast as soon as they discovered this kind of object. All creatures are small and humble in front of this kind of object. Curris plans to stay for a while, and then go to the city Go there, only when you get there can you find some research equipment, so that you can better deconstruct this kind of object.

It's just that these parasites can't bear it if they move long distances now. Now Kuris can only find a way to turn these parasites into parasites like Mux.

Curris intends to continue to stay here, as long as there are hundreds of parasites like Mux at his disposal, now there are nearly 1 people here plus those on the other side of the water plant, according to current statistics The probability, 100 to 1, is completely enough for Curris to leave with the second-stage parasites.

Regardless of the situation in the water plant or the situation here, Kuris is very clear that some parasites are hiding in towns and water plants, and the parasites in their bodies have not occurred, because Kuris has been able to precisely control these thing.

Like normal people, they will not be aware of the abnormalities in their bodies. They are like mobile surveillance, allowing Kuris to see every move on both sides.

From the point of view of Curris, the current deal between the town and the water plant has created the final result from the very beginning. No matter which side wins, it doesn't matter to Curris, they are all Curris' experimental subjects .

Curris closed his eyes, and immediately he laughed. Looking at the situation in the water plant, it seemed to be going very smoothly. The fields reclaimed on the foothills on the right side of the water plant had successfully planted crops and harvested. Shouldn't be a problem, and the people at the waterworks seem to be doing pretty well these days, as they've gotten more than one meal in the course of the week.

"It won't be long."

Kuris turned around with a smile. At this time, the tentacles entangled with these people pierced their bodies little by little. These people looked quite painful, and they couldn't even scream.

12 noon

It was the most intense time of the day, and Vera looked at her father sitting in the truck, some people in the village, and the food on the truck.

"Be careful, Vera."

Claure said, and Fred beside him said with a smile.

"I'll take you back and I'll be right back."

Klauer nodded. He had to go back to the village to tell everyone the situation, and he had to look at the current situation in the village. The prey would only become scarcer. Vera also planned to wait for the discussion with everyone in the village. Some vacant flat lands were used to establish some planting lands.

People in the water plant are very happy these days, because there is more food, and Vera also took advantage of the food delivered to increase the amount of food for everyone.

The most urgent task is to make some simple traps in some forests near the water plant. The hunters have been making them for the past few days. All of this is to prevent problems before they happen. Vera does not intend to be lenient to the people in the town.

Recently, the water flow of the underground river has begun to drop sharply. Vera knows that in a few years, it will fall into the most severe era. It only needs two to three thousand people. It is best to continue slowly, and if there are too many people , will definitely collapse.

It is obviously the rainy season, and the sky is cloudy all day long, but there hasn't been a single rain recently. This is what Virla is worried about.

It's just that what should be worried about now is the problems in the town, those guys will not continue to let them exploit like this.

"Okay, now those of you who are idle, continue to build the reservoir."

Vera plans to build some small reservoirs near the water plant, so as to prevent the water from being completely cut off when the groundwater dries up one day.

It won't last long here, and Vera plans to take the people back to her village after she has accumulated enough food. There are several water sources with the back of the mountain over there, so there is no problem at all.

The truck drove out of the water plant slowly, and Fred's expression sank as he drove the car.

"I think my sister should have a good talk with the people in the town."

Crower looked at his son, then laughed.

"Claure, if I were Vera, I might ask for more."

Fred hummed, and his father was very supportive of his sister's approach, because such a selfish approach could allow a small community to continue for a long time, and the purpose of her sister's doing this was ultimately for everyone in the village. Ra has made it clear.

For the people in the town and for those outsiders, Vera will not treat them like the people in the village. These people, as Vera said, are only short-term labor.

Fred felt a little cruel, but he couldn't say anything, because this is the natural law that their village has followed since ancient times, and they have slowly continued with their backs to nature for so many years.

My sister did this only to make the village continue better. In such a doomsday, relying on the past hunting mode, the village can no longer continue.

"Don't say anything about Fred when you go back, maybe some people will find it hard to accept."

Fred hummed silently.

A brief peace came, and in the next month, the transactions in the town and the waterworks continued. Although there were some quarrels between the two sides, there was never a major conflict.

April 8

"Can't Vera pay more?"

Gerry came with three human-powered generators, originally intended to cover 6 tons of water, but Verla only counted 3 tons.

"There is no way, we have no shortage of electricity here."

There was a lot of people around, and the people in the town and the water factory were discussing and trading in various aspects. Bartering is the most direct way, and the distribution of food and other things on both sides is almost the same. almost.

"4 tons!"

In the end, Vera said, Gerry hummed, and looked at the trading market in front of him with a smile. Most of the people in the town exchanged food for something, water or some fur tools. The temperature has been getting colder and colder recently. It seems to have entered winter.

"Verla, when can we sit down and have a good talk, as long as we allocate everything in detail and take care of each part, I think we will all live better."

Vera squinted at Gerry, shook her head and decisively rejected Gerry's proposal.

"That's fine now."

Gerry just smiled. Recently, he heard from the people at the water plant that Vera would always send some food back to the village. , most people can only complain, and it is heard that Vera has already reclaimed the plantation land in her village.

Although the water can still be supplied every day recently, the speed is much slower. Gerry asked some things on the sidelines, and he can be sure that the flow of water at the water plant should be reduced. After all, there has been no one since last month. rain.

"Okay, the transaction is over."

Following Gerry's order, everyone began to separate, and the people with weapons on both sides also looked at each other warily and began to separate. Gerry waved his hand.

"Next time it will be a little cheaper, Vila, we are in a state of water shortage every day."

Vera didn't say anything. Now a strict classification system has been established in the water plant. The craftsmen are the highest class, while the strong young and middle-aged are the middle class, and the old, weak, sick and disabled are the bottom class.

Each class receives different treatment. If you want to get more, you have to make a contribution. The water plant has completed a very big transformation in just one month, and there are many more mechanical tools. The crops in the fields are ready to be harvested.

Vera knows the current situation in the town, because some townspeople in the town have agreed to Vera's proposal in the past and acted as spies for the water plant. Every time Gerry came over, he seemed relaxed and happy. In fact, there were 5 adults can only eat one meal a day.

The disadvantages of overpopulation have been highlighted, and Vera is very clear that even if they don't exchange food for water, they will definitely collapse again because of the food problem.

In the absence of the sun, it is unrealistic to only rely on light to provide light for the crops, and the yield and quality of the crops grown will not be very good.

In Vera's concept, a maximum of 1500 to 2000 people is enough. Once the number exceeds this number, problems will only occur again and again under the current harsh environment.

Now Gerry and the others are already in a dilemma. There have been many conflicts in the town, but such conflicts will only intensify.

Vera has already made plans to bring the useful people back to the village once the reclamation of the fields near the village is over, while those who are useless will stay.

"You guys are watching, someone will come to change shifts at night."

This small water flow monitoring station in the middle of the highway has 50 to 100 people permanently stationed there. As Vera spoke, he walked slowly, and many people began to walk towards the water plant one after another.

At this time, Gerry had mixed feelings in his heart, and he was very tired. Now, gangs of all sizes have formed in the town, and the situation is very bad. If this continues, a new round of collapse will happen again. The drop in temperature has indeed affected the yield and quality of most crops.

Many people have already discussed about attacking the water plant. Basically, Gerry did not say that food cannot be supplied to everyone even if it is not exchanged for water. However, most people now think that the greedy guys in the water plant take Gone with most of the food.

Along the way, Gerry heard a lot of people complaining. This is not a small problem. There are more and more voices of dissatisfaction. Those who can only eat one meal a day are talking about unfairness. Those who are close to Gerry or those on Gerry's side can eat two meals a day.

Gerry also discussed this issue with Redes, and finally came to the conclusion that only some people can be allowed to leave, and the conflict is inevitable. Next week, Gerry and Redes will issue some measures that violate the People who take these measures will be driven away. This is a helpless move. The reclaimed fields cannot feed more than 7000 people.

"The brief peace is coming to an end!"
