Where are you from?
Jiang Wan also came over at some point and asked.
While Cheng Zhen was interrogating them, she found several pitcher plants, sundews, and a seedling of Cape sundew in the room outside where there were mutated plants.
After Jiang Xiaoxin's sensory identification, they were all plants in a normal state and had not mutated.
It's important to know that pitcher plants, sundews, and Cape sundews are all endangered species and extremely valuable, so they deserve to be rescued and collected!
It was precisely because of its rarity that after she put it into the tree hole space, she immediately received a "Golden Years" and five tree hole sap. This trip was quite fruitful!
She wanted to share the surprise with Cheng Zhen, but she didn't expect to hear such a shocking truth.
They were all refugees, and they all knew they wouldn't survive, so they didn't hold back when they spoke.
“We are from Quanya City. We fled all the way north, and not long after, we were captured and brought here.”
"Didn't you encounter zombies and mutated plants on the way and get into trouble?"
Cheng Zhen also asked.
He had previously learned about the events in Quanya City from Long Wanzhi, and at one point thought that the superhumans and those in power in Quanya City were using ordinary people as bait, feeding them zombies and mutated plants along the way to ensure their own safety.
Now it seems that the truth is not like that at all.
"Yes, we encountered it!" they replied, as if recalling some terrifying scene, each one still feeling lingering fear and unease.
"Along the way, the elderly, women and children were all used as food."
"We strong and healthy people thought we would escape with our lives, but we never expected..."
"Oh!" One of the men, not yet thirty, was extremely frustrated and dejected, weeping bitterly with remorse. "If only I had known they were lying to us! I would never have abandoned Xiaoyu, she had just given birth! Xiaobao isn't even a year old yet! Oh dear!"
"If only I had known, there's no such thing as 'if only I had known'!" A man who looked similar to him but was a generation older punched him, also looking full of regret!
"We're neither human nor ghost now! We don't even know if we'll be able to go to the underworld to see our ancestors. It's good that they're like this!"
"The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn! The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be free!"
Cheng Zhen and Jiang Wan both understood; what they had previously estimated was only a part of reality.
The truth is that the leaders and superhumans of the entire Asian City took away all the city's residents. Along the way, they used the elderly, women, and children as bait to pave the way for them, and brought the strong laborers to Vermilion City, turning them into zombies!
In this way, they can continuously work and produce labor without having to breathe!
These zombies don't need much food; if they're really hungry, they only need a little blood every two or three days!
Where does the blood come from?
Of course, they were still their companions!
Not everyone in the entire city of Asia died on the road or turned into a zombie. A large portion of them became blood people, living only to provide a constant supply of blood for the zombies!
Of course, these people also need to work!
Jiang Wan and the others were horrified when they heard this!
Is this still the human world?
No, this is a world of horror!
For these defenseless and powerless people, their world is more terrifying than any horror movie!
It was absolutely dark!
It's like living in hell!
"Please save us!" the young man suddenly knelt down. "I don't want to die!"
Jiang Wan remained expressionless and calm, but inwardly she felt extreme contempt.
First he regretted abandoning his wife and children, then he thought about how to survive. That's true, a man who can abandon his wife, children and elderly parents must be selfish. Even at this point, he will still try his best to live!
As long as I'm alive, I'll have wives and sons as many as I want.
Tsk, men.
Cheng Zhen suddenly realized, "No, we have to go back right away!"
It's one thing for those in power in the entire Asian city to be so inhumane, but with them around, even the safe zone might not be safe!
But right now, they've just captured this supply base. If they just abandon the supplies and leave, wouldn't all their efforts be for nothing?
Cheng Zhen looked at Jiang Wan and asked, "I'll give you five minutes. Can you collect all the supplies here?"
Jiang Wan: "Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it's entirely possible."
This place used to be an arms factory, so it had all kinds of guns and ammunition. After the apocalypse of oxygen deficiency, it became a food processing plant, and Cinnabar City stored most of the grains and vegetables collected from the wild here.
Jiang Wan didn't care about anything else and collected all the supplies.
In any case, based on what these mutated zombies just said, the rulers of Vermilion City are not exactly benevolent people.
Instead of keeping these supplies for themselves, it's better to move them now and use them to help refugees in the wilderness.
When Cheng Zhen and his group tried to leave, all the mutated zombies became anxious and tried to stop them.
"You can't just leave like this! You have to save us!"
"Yes, yes, we don't want to die!"
"Please save us! Please save us!"
Cheng Zhen was worried about the safe zone and was extremely anxious, but what to do with these mutated zombies was also a big problem.
"what to do?"
Yu Fen was worried for his boss, "Should we just kill him?"
"ah!"
The crowd screamed in terror, "Don't kill us! We didn't do anything! We don't want to die!"
"Let go!" Cheng Zhen unleashed a beam of light that knocked over the person blocking his way.
This, in turn, forced others to join the rebellion. Since death was inevitable anyway, they might as well take a gamble!
Cheng Zhen wasn't afraid to kill; after all, these people couldn't be considered normal people.
However, this was somewhat of a waste of time. He was in a hurry to return to the safe zone, fearing that while they were away, the people of Quanya City would have already begun to wreak havoc on the citizens of the safe zone.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoxin suddenly spoke up, saying, "There's nothing going on in the safe zone, but there are a lot of city guards coming this way!"
"Holy crap! Have we been discovered?" Yu Fen immediately took two men and went outside to check the situation.
Cheng Zhen wasn't afraid of them. Let them come. He was just looking for a chance to deal with people who dared to experiment on living people!
Both Chengzhen and Yufen, the city guards, seemed very excited and eager to make a big splash.
On the contrary, Jiang Wan remained calm and composed, and the more people looked at the mutated zombies blocking their way, the more uneasy they felt.
“They’re stalling for time,” she said with certainty.
"Something's not right here. They're stalling for time, trying to trap us!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Xiaoxin immediately added, "Those people outside have surrounded us!"
