After understanding each other's situation with Akashi, Gu Zhuo went around their small shed again.
Their small shed only contained the most basic daily necessities, some materials left by Gu Zhuo for them, a few firearms and ammunition, and many cold weapons, short knives and sticks.
Food is not very scarce. After all, the food shared by so many survivors has suddenly been reduced to a dozen people. The food can last at least another month.
The main reason is that there are too few weapons and defensive measures.
When he thought that Akashi and the others had relied on these things to fight against monsters for so many days, Gu Zhuo couldn't help but admire them.
According to the conversation, we learned that there are still many monsters around Akashi’s survivor base.
Although they also know that monsters are afraid of the daytime, during the day, the monsters will look for dark buildings to hide, and they do not dare to enter the buildings rashly. At night, the monsters will come out in full force again, looking for prey.
Akashi's team of survivors is getting smaller and smaller as the monsters attack day by day, and now only a dozen or so people are left who are about to collapse.
After listening to Akashi's entire story, Gu Zhuo raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already five o'clock.
Over the past few days, Akashi has probably mastered the pattern of monsters appearing.
They will appear around 7:30 in the evening, and will hide in dark buildings at 6:30 in the morning.
The small shed where Akashi and the others live now has a high fence behind it. Behind the high fence is a flat land. No monsters will attack from there yet. They only need to guard the front of the small shed. This area is relatively easy to defend and difficult to attack.
place.
They simply set up some defensive measures in front of the small shed to ensure that it would not be breached by a monster attack.
The monster's hunting method is still unknown, but Akashi and the others have chosen to hide in a small shed at night, trying not to make any noise or movement, and trying to make the small shed look like it is abandoned and uninhabited.
.
Relying on this method, they can still survive until now.
But I'm afraid that as time goes by, they won't be able to survive for long.
Seeing that evening was coming in an hour and a half, Akashi suddenly cast a pleading look at Gu Zhuo and said:
"It's almost night, and those monsters are coming. Gu Zhuo, I beg you, can you stay and help us?"
Akashi said, his pleading tone even a little sad.
The remaining dozen or so people all turned their attention to Gu Zhuo, as if Gu Zhuo's every move would affect their life and death.
Gu Zhuo has always disliked the feeling of others entrusting their fate to his own hands. This sense of responsibility will bring a lot of unnecessary trouble. He must learn to refuse moral kidnapping.
He was about to refuse, but suddenly he thought that maybe staying to help Akashi this time would be a good opportunity.
His Doomsday Fortress has just been upgraded. As long as he stays on the Doomsday Fortress when the monsters come, he will be safe.
Taking this opportunity, he can also test whether the Doomsday Fortress's attacks are effective against monsters, and he can also study the monster's attack behavior and hunting methods in a safer situation.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhuo did not refuse in a hurry. He wanted to discuss it with Chao Ying first.
"Just wait for me. I'll discuss it with the others and give you the answer."
After saying that, Gu Zhuo left the small shed and came to where Sam was standing.
Akashi and others were still waiting for him in the small shed.
"Chaoying, did you hear the content of our conversation just now?"
Gu Zhuo asked Chaoying through the intercom.
Chaoying's voice soon came from the intercom:
"I heard it, what do you think?"
"I want to stay and help them, but not because I want to save them. I want to take this opportunity to study those monsters, which will also help us deal with them in the future. What do you think?"
Chaoying reacted quickly:
"Yes, but if you don't want to become their protective umbrella in the future and add unnecessary complications, remember to speak clearly when agreeing to their request."
Hearing Chaoying's reminder, Gu Zhuo said "Yeah", he had the same idea.
After discussing with Chaoying, he returned to the small shed.
At this time, Akashi was already prepared to be rejected. After all, staying here to help the old, weak, sick and disabled would do no good to Gu Zhuo and others.
Even if Gu Zhuo refused, Akashi had no choice.
But what he didn't expect was that after Gu Zhuo returned to the shed, his first words were:
"We'll stay here tonight to help you."
Hearing these words, Akashi felt happy, and the gloom on his face was swept away. Just as he was about to say thank you, Gu Zhuo continued:
"I'm helping you this time, not entirely for you, but more for ourselves. After tonight, you may have to rely on yourself for everything. Don't think of relying entirely on us."
Gu Zhuo's words still drew a clear line between him and Akashi, but Akashi didn't care. As long as they could survive one more day, even one day, it would be their victory.
He has already thought about it. If he falls into the hands of those monsters, he will not wait for those monsters to eat him. He will choose to commit suicide. At least this way of death is his own choice and the most beneficial.
A dignified death.
Since Gu Zhuo had decided to stay and help them tonight, they simply made a plan for the evening.
At night, Gu Zhuo would drive the Doomsday Fortress to attract the attention of the monsters and fight them fiercely, while Akashi and the others would hide in a small shed and try to avoid participating in the battle.
In the process of Gu Zhuo fighting monsters, once he finds a way to kill them, Gu Zhuo will leave some weapons for Akashi for them to use for self-defense in the future.
This is the last mercy for Akashi and the others.
After the plan was made, Gu Zhuo looked at his watch again. It was already six o'clock, and there was still an hour and a half before seven-thirty.
Seeing that the time was approaching and the night was getting darker, Gu Zhuo no longer delayed.
He made the final handover with Akashi, then seized the time and took Sam back to the Fortress of Doom.
Seeing Gu Zhuo return to the Doomsday Fortress, Akashi's eyes were filled with envy, but soon he returned to his original state and directed the remaining people to arm themselves. As usual, don't make a sound and wait.
Gu Zhuo's actions.
Gu Zhuo, who had returned to the Doomsday Fortress, was silently waiting with Chao Ying for the night to fall.
Although Gu Zhuo was not completely sure whether the Fortress of Doom could defeat the monsters, at least he could not sit back and wait for death like this forever.
If we just give up the control of the night to another creature forever, then sooner or later, humans will lose the control of the day forever.
