Jean Of Bright City 13

Into May

The dim sky is becoming more and more obvious. In many cases, the sun is not visible at all in the morning, the sky is gray, and the sun will be slightly stronger in the afternoon.

Gerry quietly looked at the people of the Winter Guard who were still busy in front of him. They were trying to clean up the cars that had been dismantled to the frame on the road. It was more than 70 kilometers away from Bitter Winter City, which was the most they arrived. Materials from far away come to the recycling place.

Gerry came out with 200 people this time and dispatched 8 trucks with a reaction battery capable of traveling at least 2,000 kilometers. Their main purpose this time was to go to the city to find some supplies.

There are more than 40 technicians among the 200 people. Fred is also among them. Many young people are very excited because they have been living in the winter city for a whole year. Before, they were forced by life to survive. I had to stay honestly, but now it is different. Many people are joyful. Even though this world has been destroyed, many people want to take another look at the once civilized and glorious world.

Some of these are newcomers. They are responsible for leading the way. They have to go to a big city more than 200 kilometers away from Bitter Winter. There are many factories in that place. You should get a lot of things from a search. Especially It is a metal wire, which is currently lacking in Bitter Winter City. As long as the place is determined, they will go back and forth several times in a row, trying to obtain more supplies.

At this time, just after 12 o’clock in the afternoon, the convoy stopped and everyone started to cook and eat. All they brought was air-dried food. Just add water and some seasonings to the pot to make a delicious pot. food.

Fred is still discussing with the people in the technical department, what exactly is needed, the long list is still adding some needed items, including computer equipment is necessary, but the carrying capacity of 8 trucks is limited. , Can only send back some needed materials first.

"King Fred, I'm eating."

Fred smiled awkwardly.

"Just call me Fred."

Although Fred said so, most people still use honorifics. Most people have adapted to this kind of life, especially Fred. Many people like him very much. He is not like his sister Vera. So serious, many people have felt Fred's kindness in the past few months of managing citizens' lives.

Now many people can take a day off in a week. Fred has carefully planned all aspects of the city's work. Although it is difficult, he still arranged a timetable that will not stop the city, and Vera agreed.

There is only one thing. If there is a special situation, everyone will not cancel the rest and must do their part of the work every day.

Bitter Winter City is about to exceed 50,000 people. Those who have survived are constantly leaning towards Bitter Winter City. There will be people every day. They have met several groups of people on the way. Fred will explain to each other every time, Bitter Winter City. In the past, they can get care, food and a place to rest.

Fred also gave them some food, and many people rushed towards Bitter Winter City ecstatically.

This seems to be a good sign to many people. A steady stream of people pass by, and the city is still being developed. According to the plan drawn up by my sister, Bitter Winter City will receive at least 300,000 people. This will slowly develop and eventually become A big city with a population of 1 million.

There is no need to worry about the current production capacity, but technological matters need to be carried out as soon as possible, especially the construction of crop field greenhouses, which is the first priority. Although many places can rely on manpower to carry out, the efficiency is always low. A lot of materials must be found to realize mechanized labor.

"King Fred, come down here."

Fred said, carrying a bowl of hot broth, walked to the side of the truck, then climbed up, Gerry was eating.

"According to the route, we will arrive tonight as soon as possible. There should be a small town in the past. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Gerry asked, and Fred said with a smile.

"You think it's all right Mr. Gerry."

Gerry smiled helplessly.

"You are a little conscious of being a king anyway."

Fred shook his head helplessly.

Looking at the map, Fred had been to this town 100 kilometers away from Bitter Winter City. It was a very ordinary town with a larger population than the previous Bitter Winter Town, with about five or six thousand people.

"Have you not seen it when you came?"

Gerry shook his head and said.

"When we came before, something went wrong. Someone had entered the town early and launched an attack. We didn't want to conflict with them, so we had to keep going."

"Forget it, let's go straight to the city."

Gerry nodded. After eating, everyone rested for half an hour. The convoy continued to move. Nowadays, the cars parked on the side of the road are seldom seen. The road has become wider. Gerry stared quietly. Everything around them, in a short time, they came to the entrance of a town. The street sign was crooked aside, and there were some dark red blood stains on it. At the entrance of the town, there were a few shriveled corpses.

"Let's go in and take a look."

As Fred said, Gerry also nodded, and then he took 30 people, armed with weapons, and planned to go in. Fred followed.

"King Fred, you still..."

"It's okay, I want to go in and take a look."

This entry road was about 2 kilometers long. A group of people walked in along the road and soon saw more corpses, with shocking traces in many places.

When he came to the town, Fred swallowed. Everyone looked at everything in shock. A large number of bones were hung at the entrance of the town. Gerry walked over to confirm it, at least half a year or even It was a long time ago.

In the sound of the wind, the human bones that had been hung up made a burst of clicks. Gerry yelled a few times, but no one answered. They walked around randomly, and there were signs of firefighting everywhere.

The farmland next to the town had already withered, and the whole town was transferred. They found some useful weapons beside some corpses, but did not see half alive.

"If we continue to fight, it will become like this."

Gerry murmured, and many people nodded. The reason Gerry didn’t enter the town before was because when they came, there had been fierce firefights in the town. Although Gerry didn’t know what it was, it was just Only the third day after the disaster occurred.

It can only be said that there are people who are more crisis-conscious than Gerry, knowing disasters, at the beginning, what will happen if an effective shelter cannot be found.

The water and electricity in this town were gone, let alone food. Then a group of people left, and some weapons and ammunition were still found in the town, although the quantity was small.

The convoy continues on the road, there are nearly 100 kilometers, they are not fast, they will arrive at about 4 pm.

Along the way, they met some people who knew the location of Bitter Winter City by radio, but Gerry did not allow Fred to give them some food, only gave them a little water, and told them that they just need to keep walking. Arrived in Bitter Winter City.

"By the way, Gerry, congratulations."

At this time Fred was talking, Gerry became a little embarrassed, and several people in the car also snickered, because everyone knew that Gerry’s wife Siri was pregnant and would give birth this winter at the latest. I said thank you shyly.

Everyone was happy along the way, but when they were about to approach the city, the joy began to dissipate. Along the way, many corpses and many scorched humanoid grounds were seen. This is the person who died of the annihilation virus. What is left, a huge city can already be seen in front of you, but under the gray sky, the city does not seem to have any vitality, and some buildings are already broken.

Along the way, many traces can be seen, and these traces are the last traces of human existence in this world.

"Already close to the city, start to guard!"

As Gerry said, the trucks slowed down one after another. Some guards got out of the truck and started to stand on both sides of the truck with their weapons. Eight trucks had people with sniper rifles watching around. According to the people who arrived in Bitter Winter City in the past few months, there are still people in this city, especially an organization called the Blood Alliance, with hundreds of people.

The people in this organization are doing all things evil in the city, doing things that exterminate humanity. Many people who have escaped have mentioned it. There are also small organizations that are small but wandering around.

The disease and the fight against each other have left this metropolis with a population of close to 2 million people basically empty in just a few months.

Gerry looked at an old city map on a laptop and directed the convoy to move to the right. They need to go to a manufacturing factory first. This is also their primary purpose here. They need to bring back some pharmaceutical tools and medicines. Raw materials.

At this time, in an eight-story building at the entrance of the city, several men and women with unkempt faces, dark spots on their cheeks, and some raised lumps on their skins stared at the moving convoy with cold eyes, and their foreheads. There is a trace of being cut.

"Then those from Bitter Winter City, they seem to have a good time. Order to go down and prepare to start hunting."

A burly man said, everyone behind him laughed coldly.

At this time Gerry is still explaining some things that everyone needs to pay attention to. Although they have not encountered any problems now, Gerry is thinking that they may have been discovered, but if the other party attacks, he is definitely here. You won’t be polite.

The convoy drove slowly into the compound of the pharmaceutical factory that had been attacked, and many corpses could still be seen. Gerry immediately asked the guards to start checking around, and then arranged some snipers near the convoy. Reid and the people from the technical department walked into the factory. It was in a mess. There were a lot of pills scattered on the ground. It seemed that the place had been looted. Several doctors began to pick up some of the pills on the ground and passed them through the pill box. And the letters on the pill can tell which medicine is.

"Bring everything you can use."

This used to be a large pharmaceutical factory, and soon the technical staff found some usable machinery.

"Fred! You took someone to find a place to hide, and someone came."

Gerry’s voice came from the radio talker. At this time, trucks drove into the internal plant of the pharmaceutical factory. Gerry was directly on the second floor of the plant. He broke some glass and looked at it with a gun. .

"Yo! You are the guys who call themselves Winter City, why don't you come to our site to say hello to us?"

A jeep drove in, and the man in the car shouted with a megaphone. Gerry felt that the situation was not good. More and more people appeared. Within a few minutes, the pharmaceutical factory was surrounded. .

It's just that Gerry didn't panic at all, because although the opponents were large in number, they were not vegetarians. Gerry was arranging training for the Winter Guard every day.

Recoverable air-pressure steel bullets were used to replace bullet accuracy training, and certain results have been received. More than 30 snipers were arranged nearby, all of them holding high-precision hunting rifles with a range of 500 meters.

"What do you want to do?"

Gerry yelled and looked at the weapons in their hands. There were still RPGs. This was something Gerry didn't expect. He had to fight quickly, otherwise they would suffer heavy losses if they were bombarded like this.

"Little pigs, you should come out quickly, otherwise it will be miserable later."

The man headed by the jeep yelled, and Gerry did not hesitate, then suddenly turned around, raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger.

Bang bang

The gun rang, and the man who was still yelling at the head was shot and fell to the ground. In an instant, following Gerry's firing signal, people from the Winter Guard who had been in ambush all around shot one after another.

The battle basically turned into a one-sided battle. In less than five minutes, these gang members who were planning to encircle Gerry had suffered heavy casualties. Many people began to flee. Gerry did not order a chase, but looked at the ground. Hundreds of corpses, although they fought back, from Gerry's point of view, their counter-attack was nothing but chaos.

Sure enough, there was a huge difference between the well-trained Winter Guard and ordinary people who only depended on the weapons in their hands, and Fred came up at this time.

"I found a lot of useful things. There is a warehouse below that has a lot of medicines. I can only move them away and come back again."

Fred said and glanced at the people lying on the ground outside, and no one had died.

"Don't worry about these people Fred, they are long gone."

.........

"You bastards, what do you want to do?"

The boss who had just been shot screamed, one of his hands was stepped on by a man, and the other man stepped his foot directly on the wound of his mid laner, and the blood was still overflowing.

"Oh, boss, you are very unlucky. Why did you get shot? It's the same as you always say, remember? What did you say?"

The boss looked at a bunch of smiling men and women in horror.

"In this world, if you get hurt, you will die."

A bunch of people laughed, and finally they let go of the boss, and did not kill him. The boss pressed his wound in pain and fled from those people staggeringly. Although he was angry, he had no way to do it now.

The boss underestimated the people in Bitter Winter City too much, and now the boss probably knows that those people are more like regular troops than a mob like them.

But now the boss has lost too much blood, he has to find medicine, otherwise he will die.

Once the leader stepped into the pharmaceutical factory, he raised his hands and shouted.

"Save me, as long as you save me, I can tell you all the information you need."

Gerry looked at the dying boss quietly, his attitude was completely opposite to just before.

"Let him come over."

Fred opened his mouth and Gerry nodded. After a while, the man who was about to faint was taken to a temporary operating table. Several doctors helped him treat the wound with some medical instruments he found. , Took out the bullet, replaced it with medicine, and sutured it.

The materials in the factory building are still being transported, but some warehouses are inaccessible, so they can only be blasted and blasted open the warehouse door to know what is inside.

"I think it's better to forget Fred, that guy's words are not credible."

As Gerry spoke, Fred shook his head.

"Listen to what he said when he wakes up."

It wasn't until 3 o'clock in the morning that the leader named Tony came to his senses. He also bluntly said that he was almost killed by the people under his hands because of his injuries, because he treated those injured in the same way.

Tony began to talk about things. After the chaos lasted for three months after the disaster, people from the army suppressed the riot and began to build some temporary bases. It was just that the order was in just one month. Then it collapsed, and because of the outbreak of the epidemic, the place fell into extreme chaos again.

They also gather together to survive.

"What did you do Tony before?"

Tony laughed.

"I used to be the owner of a motorcycle shop."

"After we have moved some things tonight, will you come back to Bitter Winter City with us?"

Gerry naturally knew Fred's thoughts. At this time, it would be good to have someone familiar with machinery.

"I do!"

Tony said busy immediately.

Gerry’s face was heavy at this time. What Tony said was basically the same as what the people who entered the Winter City said. Although many people still have the last glimmer of fantasy, human society can be restored to the original civilized order. , But the last hope of coming over this trip was also dashed.

In just over a year, human society has come to an end.

Later, Tony also said something about the mechanical parts that Fred and they wanted, because during this year, Tony took people to sweep most of the city. They only absorbed those who were useful, but they were not useful. All are killed.

At 6 in the morning, everything that can be stuffed into the truck was already stuffed in. It will be slower when we go back, but this trip is quite rewarding. Many people can only sit on the top of the truck with welded guardrails on both sides. As the truck shook, the convoy drove out of the city.

Gerry Xuan's heart finally relaxed all night. He felt unusually tired. This trip for less than two days to explore has completely cut off some of the thoughts in Gerry's mind, perhaps most people are like this.

At this time, the sky began to brighten, and the convoy had already drove out of the city. In the dim light, Kuris stood quietly on top of a building, watching the leaving convoy, dozens of people stood behind no longer needed The parasite who relies on inherent food to maintain physical functions, he followed the convoy all the way to the city.

Just now, Curis had killed all those who attacked Gerry and them, leaving only those who were temporarily not dead after this parasite invaded the body, there were fewer than 50 people.

Kuris intends to help them well. At this time, there is no need for anyone to interrupt or hinder the footsteps of Bitter Winter City. Bitter Winter City must be established.

Kuris had already made a plan, and only when the time was right would he seize everything in Winter City.

"You have been hunting in the city to your heart's content these days, killing all those gang members, and bringing them back to the lair if you can use them."

Soon there were traces of peristalsis on the skin of the parasites behind them. They dispersed in all directions very quickly, rustling, and a large number of parasitic tentacles were released from the surface of Kuris' body. He pierced the floor a little bit, and soon Kuris returned to the place on the third floor. The people in the room with their heads covered with plants looked very painful. Some of them were conscious and still Weeping faintly.

"You have to work hard. If your will is eroded by these things, you will definitely die. Think about the reasons for living. This is a way to strengthen everyone's willpower."

Kuris talked and laughed. He recently discovered something strange. If this parasite is guiding him and wanting to let himself go to the coast, this feeling cannot be described in words, but it is certain. What is on the coast? This feeling similar to the special signal sent from a distance makes Kuris feel weird. He intends to go to the coast to check it out. After the adapted parasites appear among these people, Kuris Just plan to go.

Kuris is more and more fond of things parasitic in his body. Kuris knows that they are conscious, but will not take the initiative to talk to him. Kuris often asks what they are and where they come from. Questions about what I intend to do, but these things have never been answered directly.

But Kuris knew that there was a huge consciousness behind these things. This kind of consciousness was unimaginable. It could be called a cosmic consciousness, capable of all-encompassing.

When Kuris swallowed something, it was always easy to swallow it. This is different from the difficulty at the beginning. It is certain that these things can analyze the material structure in an instant, and then directly use some special means to decompose it.

"It's getting better and better!"

Kuris raised his hands in excitement and looked at a woman who had fully awakened. She was only panicked at this time. Kuris walked over and loosened her tentacles.

"Congratulations, miss you, you have gained a new life!"
