The cafeteria upstairs is very quiet, everyone is staying quietly, some people have fallen asleep. There is no water to wash, everyone's face is not so white, the messy hair only has a greasy sheen, and there is still a smell in the air.
A sour smell.
Chen Qing was not sleepy, so she went outside the building alone. There were several people on guard. When they saw her approaching, they were very respectful and said, "Captain, you haven't rested yet."
Looking at the faces of these young people, Chen Qing nodded and smiled and said: "I can't sleep. You go and have a rest. I'll keep an eye on them for a while."
"How about that? This is our mission."
"It doesn't matter. Your captain won't blame you. I said, go ahead!"
Watching a few students leave, Chen Qing sat on the railing, looking at the dark and dull sky, convinced that it was different from before.
Tomorrow, I will lead people to search the school and lead people to find some food. Then I will prepare to leave the city and go to the base of Xihe Industrial Zone.
This place is at least sixty or seventy kilometers away from the base. There are countless beasts along the way. The most powerful beasts I have encountered now are vicious beasts that can use energy.
I summarized it by myself. Ordinary beasts have some scales and limited power defense. If they are more powerful, their backs and limbs are all covered with scales. Their power defense has been greatly improved, and they are a great threat to ordinary team members. The more powerful ones can initially use Qi.
Apart from himself, perhaps only a few people such as Lin Hao can deal with such ferocious beasts.
When encountering beasts that attack completely with energy, only you can deal with them. Even if there are two or three of them, you don't dare to attack them forcefully. The risk is extremely high.
After all, the strength is still not enough. Today's flying beasts also gave themselves a warning. Fortunately, there are no flying beasts that can use Qi.
There are still a lot of obstacles in the city. If you encounter such a group of flying beasts in an open space, and if there are still some that can use energy, it will be a complete disaster, and it may be a hunt that you cannot resist.
Maybe I can only run away for my life.
There were too many uncertainties. Chen Qing shook her head, shook off some pessimism, and strengthened her beliefs. She could think carefully in advance, but she couldn't be afraid to move forward.
The key is that so many days have passed without feeling any sign of rescue or hearing any sound of artillery fire.
There was no movement at all, as if it had been abandoned.
It's not that I haven't thought about leaving the city later, but the more beasts are gathering in the city, the greater the uncertainty. It's better to go out of the city all the way to improve your strength. This is a compromise plan, a two-pronged approach.
After sitting there until midnight, another team member came to change the guard, so Chen Qing found a room to rest for a while.
Outside the room in the early morning, there seemed to be mist in the sky, but there was still a ray of sunlight shining on the ground. Taking a deep breath, Chen Qing felt that there seemed to be a different smell in the air, which made her body feel clear, as if it was adding...
something.
I didn't pay much attention to it. When I arrived at the cafeteria building, most of the team members were up.
When Chen Qing saw this, she directly called all the team leaders and asked them to gather all the team members, eat and organize their equipment.
"Brother Hao, wait a minute." Chen Qing stopped Lin Hao and took out yesterday's trophy, a long horn cut from the body of the angry leader beast. It can be said to be an excellent weapon.
"Captain, just give it to me. What's wrong with this? What if someone else..."
"Okay, it's suitable for your strength. Anyone who has any opinions about what I've given you can come to me."
"Take it."
Lin Hao looked at Chen Qing gratefully, slowly took the horn, held it in his hand and stroked it, as if he couldn't put it down.
After a while, all the people from each team gathered together and lined up in long queues, which looked a bit like them.
Chen Qing gave the order directly: "Let's set off and aim to clear out all the beasts in the school."
Yunyang University is a university of all ages, but this university is relatively small, the university has a bit of history, and the number of people is not large. The school has been renovated recently, but it actually occupies an average area.
More than a hundred people, led by Chen Qing, quickly killed some beasts in and around the school. Fortunately, there were no angry beasts.
There are actually many teachers and students in other places in the school. There were originally a few thousand people in the school. Some of them were not in the school when the disaster happened. Some people ran away after the disaster. Many were killed by animals, and some ran out afterward.
Nowadays, only six to seven hundred people have been found, and including those in the cafeteria, there are only a thousand people. It can be said that it is very depleted.
We also found people starved to death in the girls' dormitory, which was very shocking. Maybe because of their timidity, many people were so frightened that they went insane and did not dare to go out at all.
There was no other way, Chen Qing could only lead people to quickly find some food outside, and distribute it to the teachers and students one by one, as well as a small number of employees. He could be regarded as a great philanthropist and a saintly man.
"Boss, everyone has been accommodated in higher buildings, and a lot of food has been left for them. How can we be so kind to these people?"
Glasses, the logistics captain, worked hard for a long time and came to Chen Qing to complain.
"Thank you for your hard work, glasses."
"How many of these people are willing to go out of the city with us?"
Chen Qing didn't care about what the glasses thought. She wanted to know how many of these people had courage. She would only help them this time, and she wouldn't stay here to guard them. There was no point in worrying too much.
"Hey, boss, many of them were frightened to death. Especially when we gave them food and arranged a relatively safe place. When they heard that they wanted to rush out of the city by themselves, dozens of them were willing to follow."
Glasses said in a somewhat disdainful tone, as if he looked down on others. You must know that he himself is very timid, and now he finds that many people are not as courageous as him.
Then he said angrily: "This group of people also said that they want us to stay here and wait for rescue. They also said that we will find food for them and protect them when the time comes."
"Boss, do you think it's ridiculous?"
Chen Qing smiled and didn't care about her unhappy mood. These thoughts were not strange to her. The weak expected to be cared for and protected by the strong, but unfortunately the decision-making power was not in their hands.
"Okay, glasses. How many beast cores were harvested this time? Are there any casualties?"
"Boss, with you shaking the place, no one had any accidents. They were all minor injuries. This time, more than a hundred and close to two hundred beast cores were harvested both inside and outside the school."
The glasses gave Chen Qing a little flattery.
"Okay, let everyone take a good rest and tidy up. The new ones will be given their first beast core, and the others will be distributed according to their merits."
The glasses were arranged as ordered. Chen Qing was thinking about starting to leave the city today?
We are still walking tomorrow, maybe there is still half a day to clean up the beasts around the school. Then he smiled to himself and murmured: "Even if I clean up the school, it is useless, the beasts from other places will still come here soon."
....."
Without thinking about it, Chen Qing returned to the cafeteria and saw that everyone was already resting and summoned the team captains.
"Everyone, be prepared mentally. I have decided to leave tomorrow. What do you think?"
Chen Qing still decided to leave tomorrow, now let’s see what everyone thinks.
Everyone was silent. After a while, someone spoke.
"When we start from here, we can take Tongtai Avenue. This road has many buildings, but it leads directly to Lengyun Avenue in the suburbs. We can find some vehicles in the suburbs and drive quickly from Lengyun Avenue to Xihe Base."
Wu Xinyang calmly and simply stated his planned route.
"Is it possible to drive in the countryside?
"Indeed, there are sparse houses all the way around Lengyun Avenue, where people can hide and avoid the terrifying flying beasts in the sky."
Lei Meng added, while also raising his own objections.
Chen Qing knew that driving would be fast, but the rumble of the car was too loud, and there must be a large number of scattered vehicles and obstacles on the road, making it difficult to quickly avoid animals.
Maybe we can see the actual situation then.
Someone spoke, and then the captains each expressed their thoughts.
Chen Qing summarized it and chose the most reasonable and compromise approach. After all, the journey would definitely not go smoothly. We needed to adapt to changes, and the plan could not keep up with the changes.
"While it's still early, gather the team and go outside to collect some supplies. At the same time, kill the beasts and get cores to get the team together."
Chen Qing is unwilling to relax and must lead the team to improve its strength.
Seeing the team leaders gathering their teams, Chen Qing sorted things out and went downstairs first.
After a while, all the staff gathered downstairs. Chen Qing saw that there were 1,560 people. Unknowingly, the team had expanded. These people were his help, but also pressure and responsibility.
I am not a heartless person, in fact, on the contrary, sometimes I am very soft-hearted inside, especially towards my friends and people I care about.
Disasters are ruthless. Many times there is no way. Some things must be done, and these beasts must be killed. There is no compromise between the two parties. Either they hide like mice, and in the end they will be found and eaten, or they will kill and kill.
Use their beast cores to increase their strength, and see who wins in the end and who has the last laugh.
"Go out and kill the beasts!"
Chen Qing almost shouted, this is a life-and-death war, a life-and-death battle between man and beast.
