city ​​of the end

Chapter 151
Under the leadership of several survivors, the crowd still came to what they called "homeland".This is one of the worst frontier level 1 gathering places.In fact, there are many such gathering places in the "border" area.Most of them are places where human beings hid and gathered in a panic to avoid the disaster at the beginning of the cataclysm.But after the cataclysm passed and the world gradually returned to stability, these people found that they were almost trapped in this small area, as if fleeing to an isolated island in the sea to avoid a storm.

Generally, most of these gathering places have inconvenient transportation, are rarely populated, and are not very suitable for growing crops and raising livestock.After the initial disaster, people will either choose to venture to other gathering places to find opportunities, or they can only stay here helpless and hopeless, waiting for the last person to die, or be killed by bandits, mutants and various wastelands. The monsters were wiped out, and finally turned into a pile of wasteland.

In Fei Lun's view, the gathering place in front of him was like a dying old man, with few breaths left.On the periphery of the entire gathering place, only sharp wooden sticks were inserted into a circle of walls, and the whole gathering place looked about the same size as an open-air camp for Boy Scouts.Except for a circle of wooden houses in the middle, even the poor can barely build a few houses with old canvas.

And what effect such a house can play on the "darkness", where there is no sun 24 hours a day, is naturally self-evident.

It is conceivable what kind of sensation will be caused when Fei Lun and others come to this gathering place.

"This is………"

Seeing the simple buildings in front of her, almost like the primitive society, the elf girl was completely stunned there.Although she already knew that most of those gathering places might look no different from slums, but now this one can't even reach the level of slums. Only one sentence can describe how desolate this place is—this is people Where do you live? !

"who!"

But at this moment, with a loud shout, everyone saw a man in linoleum poking his head out from the sentry post behind the wall. He was holding a machine gun that seemed to be quite old, and watched vigilantly. Phelan et al.After seeing that man, only a few survivors shouted at him happily.Seeing the few survivors, the man couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then he smiled excitedly and joyfully, then he reached out and slapped the button beside him hard.Soon, the thick door panel that was originally used as the gate fell down like this, opening the way into the gathering place.

The elf girl watched those wasteland residents happily rushing into the gathering place, hugged tightly with those who had heard the sound and walked out of the room, and both of them said something.The eyes of those people looking at Faerun, the elf girl and others relaxed a little.Soon, a man who looked like the leader walked up to them.He first glanced at the girls standing not far away, then looked at Faerun, and lowered his gun.

"I have already heard from my people about the specific situation. Outsiders, thank you very much for your rescue in times of crisis. I never thought that they would be attacked by mutant monsters... Thank God, my wife Everything is safe..."

"No need to thank me, this is what I should do, serve the people, do good deeds without leaving a name. If you insist on knowing my name, then I will tell you, my name is **."

"Good morning sir."

Hearing Fei Lun's answer, the man was obviously a little dazed. He frowned slightly, and then took a few steps back vigilantly.Among other things, as the ruler of a gathering place, he is not as good as Faerun in appearance, and coupled with that clean and tidy windbreaker, the overall aura he displays is even more irresistible to him.

"Excuse me...are you all traveling merchants?"

The man gritted his teeth, then turned his eyes away from Faerun's face that could make all men curse, and turned his eyes to the Harmony behind him.Hearing the man's question, Fei Lun shrugged his shoulders.

"Almost, what's the matter?"

"So, do you have any food that you can exchange?"

Hearing Fei Lun's answer, the man's eyes suddenly brightened. He widened his eyes and looked at Fei Lun in front of him with shortness of breath.As for Fei Lun, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a smile of unknown meaning emerged, and then he replied slowly.

"If there are enough items of equivalent value, of course we will also trade. But... I think you are also very clear that in this land, food is always the most expensive commodity. And here... I'm sorry , I don’t think you have enough supplies to exchange.”

"I can trade them!"

As he spoke, the man stretched out his hand excitedly, pointing at the woman who had finally returned to the gathering place not far away, and her two children.

"Mr.**! I'd like to trade them for food!"

"Are you crazy?"

Looking at the scene in front of her, the elf girl has completely entered the stunned mode.It never occurred to her that the man who was reunited with her wife and children just now would sell them again after changing hands?What is rhythm?What is this unfolding?Why did things become like this?

"How can you do that?"

"That's all I can do, miss."

Hearing the elf girl's question, the man sighed deeply.

"I think you can see that this is only a first-level gathering place. There are less than [-] people left here, including me. We have nowhere to go, and we have no way to go to other places. The weather has been getting worse every day recently. It was a cold day, and almost all the crops we planted before have been harvested. It can be said that for us, there is simply not enough food to meet our needs... Therefore..."

Having said this, the man seemed to have made up his mind, and raised his head to stare at Faerun.

"I hope to be able to use them as bargaining chips in exchange for some food. This is our last resort. Whether you want to make them slaves or something else, there is no problem. They are very obedient, well-behaved, and docile. As long as You'll make a good slave with training. Please, sir!"

"This……………"

Hearing this, the elf girl didn't know what to say at all.She stared blankly at the woman and her child in the gathering place not far away who were excited because they could come back alive, and then looked at the man in front of her, who had a long mouth, but couldn't speak a word.

On the contrary, Feilun seemed quite leisurely and calm. Facing the scene in front of him, he first reached out and took out a cigarette from his arms and put it in his mouth, then lit it and took a slight puff. He opened his mouth and answered.

"Sorry, we don't do slave trading business, because it's too troublesome and there are too many things."

"how come……………"

Hearing Fei Lun's answer, the man showed a desperate expression, he gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly raised his head again.

"Then, then, at least, please take those two children away, even if you throw them to another gathering place, it doesn't matter..."

"Wait, isn't that your child?"

At this time, the elf girl finally couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted the man's request involuntarily.

"Why would you give your child to someone else!"

Hearing this, the man smiled wryly and looked at the elf girl beside him.

"It's very simple, this lady... because our gathering place is about to be destroyed."
