Chapter 447 Basic Rules of Survival in the Apocalypse
The alliance base is deep in the city and has attracted widespread attention from the outside world.
But unexpectedly, an accident happened right at the beginning, and it was announced that some bases were kicked out.
They are all quite large bases.
People outside have different thoughts. Is this crazy?
Is the Alliance sending people to their deaths by doing this?
However, the news broadcast on the radio afterwards was a series of good news.
Eliminate most of the zombies in City C——
Eliminate all zombies in City C——
Take all the resources of City C——
The third safe city was lit up——
The outside world cheered, and many bases that had been waiting and watching took the initiative to express their desire to join the alliance, and most of them promised to hand over all their crystal cores to ensure their safety.
All the non-participating bases thought so, not to mention the bases participating in the alliance.
They had someone taking the lead before, who had been magnifying the doubts in their hearts.
Now that they have fought side by side and witnessed the strength of the Central Base, they are more confident in the plan to eliminate the zombies.
They offered to hand over all the zombie crystal cores.
And to show his sincerity, he handed over all the crystal cores he had harvested, excluding those he had exchanged for potions...
"Captain Lu, we did have some concerns earlier, but we did so for the sake of the base's safety. Please forgive us! Now that we're being taken care of, we hope the authorities will give us a chance to contribute to ending the apocalypse!"
"That's right! Even though our team members didn't have enough crystal cores, they were still rescued. Thank you to the Central Base for trusting us!"
"We also want to end the apocalypse, and we'll go all out!"
"Our alliance will only grow stronger, and there is hope for ending the apocalypse!"
“…”
When a city was taken, everyone was excited.
Now we have a true sense of unity in our goals.
Before, most people just wanted to curry favor and get more benefits.
Now everyone also wants to curry favor with others.
Also want to gain more benefits.
But it's not personal, but the interests of the entire apocalypse...
Base Captain Lu raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet. "The potion was provided by Deputy Base Captain Sheng, and you can thank him. Hand over all the crystal cores to the Central Base and receive the potion for free. We agree, but..."
He paused, then continued with a serious expression.
"I must tell you, the situation is different now. Handing everything over doesn't mean it's completely safe. We're offering a large amount of crystal cores in exchange for potions because potions are precious and we don't have many in stock. Our reserves are dwindling with each battle."
“…”
These words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the enthusiasm of these people.
Everyone looked at each other, as if they had not expected this.
They were used to the feeling of being protected and used to the generosity and security of the Central Base, so they were willing to join it.
But unexpectedly, after they defected, they discovered that the Central Base was not as powerful as they had imagined?
"But don't worry, we will do our best to protect every member of the alliance."
Captain Lu Ji added, "You're right. Our alliance will only grow stronger. We can develop better strategies to reduce casualties. Consider this for a moment. If you're willing to change the alliance model, please state your opinion at the celebration banquet tomorrow night."
The scene was silent, everyone had different expressions, and no one spoke for a while.
…
Coming out of the temporary meeting room, Director Lu Ji was not affected by this incident at all. He just turned around and asked his assistant.
"Sheng Fei went to change the potion? Is he back?"
"not yet."
The assistant shook his head. "It takes time to exchange goods. It's a long way from City A. It might be evening."
After saying this, he glanced at the base commander beside him quietly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
After thinking about it, I couldn't help it.
"Base Commander, shouldn't we boost morale at this happy moment of great victory? Why are you pouring cold water on yourself and sabotaging yourself?" He was so scared when he heard what the base commander said just now that he dared not breathe.
The atmosphere is so good now. What would some bases think if they knew that their medicine sources are also unstable?
Will he just quit the alliance and leave?
After all, many of them have used potions!
Besides, wasn't Captain Lu Ji's original intention to have everyone hand in all their crystal cores?
Now that he has taken the initiative to hand it over, he scares people away with his words...
The base commander didn't stop walking, and asked casually in a calm tone, "Are you the base commander or am I the base commander? Do I still need to report to you?"
The assistant immediately shut up and quickly said, "You are, I won't ask anymore."
Captain Lu Ji said slowly, "Besides, this is the truth. How can telling the truth be considered a cold water?"
They gave a lot of base potions along the way, even if the other party had not accumulated enough crystal cores.
This large amount of advance expenditure did lead to a reduction in their inventory.
But the injured player later took the initiative to fill the gap, which is good.
It was within his expectations that everyone would take the initiative to propose changing the alliance model.
But the Central Base does not need this kind of "only the one who gives you milk is your mother" ally.
He knew very well that some people spoke passionately because they were too excited. If they were not of one mind, they would never be of one mind. Who knows what kind of trouble would happen at that time.
Besides, this time it went really smoothly.
They would take it for granted that this is how the Central Base should be and that everything should be handled well.
However, the fact is that the Central Base does not have that much capability.
Their key reliance now is the Space-Time Exchange.
How much the Space-Time Exchange can give depends on how big their chips are, and it is even unknown when the Space-Time Exchange will close.
This is not stable.
If any accident happens, the result will be very ugly.
Now that the alliance has just begun, it is the most critical time. The Central Base cannot make such a low-level mistake.
It depends on how many people are willing to change their ways tomorrow.
At that time, we will assess whether outsiders are willing to join the alliance, and then we can divide the alliance into two major camps.
…
Hung up Zhou Yichuan’s phone.
Chen Jinyue sat on the swing in the yard, flipping through a book bored.
Just when she was wondering if the client might not come so soon today, someone walked in from outside.
It’s Sheng Fei.
"I thought you wouldn't come so soon." Sheng Fei came again on the night after the base director's meeting and told Chen Jinyue the approximate time of the next transaction.
His initial estimate was that it would happen in the next two or three days.
Chen Jinyue was about to come in to find Jiang Qian'an, so he put all the prepared potions into the storage ring.
What if he comes here today?
really.
Sheng Fei explained, "The progress is very smooth. The strength of the alliance of bases will definitely be faster than the central base fighting alone."
Chen Jinyue nodded and asked with concern, "It looks like the alliance is going well, then?"
"Fortunately, the length of the road base is very far-sighted..."
He explained both modes of the alliance, and then talked about how just as they entered the city, a wave of bases were kicked out.
Chen Jinyue couldn't help but sigh, "He's really powerful and kind-hearted, but he's not a pushover either."
Sheng Fei said calmly, "This is the basic rule of survival in the apocalypse."
The official sees it more clearly.
