Amidst the bewildered gazes of the younger generation in their teens and twenties, several older elders slowly stepped forward. Their voices choked with sobs as they asked, "Is Huaguo still around? What is the East District...?"
They almost couldn't hold back when they suddenly heard the familiar language. They all asked a bunch of questions eagerly. Even so, there were still many questions that they didn't ask, but the one they were most concerned about was the first one.
Although this young man looks strange, the three behind him look like fellow villagers, so this young man with white hair and blue eyes must be of mixed race.
Bai Chimian didn't make up any of this, and he explained directly, "In. The Eastern Region is a safe zone in the east, jointly established by China and the other seven surviving Asian countries. There are four such safe zones in total."
This answer is different from what I originally told Chen Qian.
What Chen Qian needed at that time was to understand what the end of the world would be like. Facts tell, China had indeed joined forces with the other seven countries to establish the Eastern Safe Zone because of the alien invasion, and had carefully put aside the word "country". From then on, the priority would be on human survival.
At least, at the beginning, they were all fighting for the survival of mankind.
Facing these people who have been wandering for many years, what they want to know is whether their hometown is still there after they have been wandering for so long.
These people are obviously Chinese, unlike the dozen or so cities from B30 to B42, who all learned the Chinese language later.
When alien species invade, kill those who are destined to be killed first.
Their destined person is China's former neighbor, which is also a country with a large population.
If we say that most of the current East Region is a continuation of China, a big reason is that the sacrifices of people at that time made the pressure of invasion on China less severe in the beginning.
Although subsequent wars intensified, fortunately, as time went by, the power humans gained allowed them to gradually fight back.
The war with the alien species was extremely brutal.
The road paved with flesh and blood, although it only preserved a little of their bloodline, did not directly cut off their inheritance like in most other countries.
They were of the same race and country, and they hadn't seen their kind for a long time, so these people were quickly fooled by Bai Chimian.
"You said the aliens can't discover us?" One of the elders looked at Bai Chimian and the others again with his weathered eyes, and finally stopped at Huo Xiao, who was squatting on the ground and happily playing with the black vines that had appeared inexplicably a few months ago.
In such a world, ordinary families would never be able to raise such an energetic young man.
Just like the children around him, each of them grew up early and took on the responsibility of supporting the family. They seemed to be able to hunt monsters at will, but in fact, only they themselves knew how heavy the price behind it was.
As if he had made up his mind, he whispered to a boy next to him, "Aqi, go ask your brother Siwen to come to my house."
The boy immediately ran back obediently.
"You guys go in and sit down first. Young man, although those strange vines won't hurt anyone, it's better to avoid them." While inviting Bai Chimian and the others to go in, he reminded Huo Xiao who was still squatting.
Huo Xiao immediately turned around and retorted when he heard this, "What's weird about it? It's so beautiful!"
Then she murmured softly, "Qianqian, he's old and his eyesight is not good. Your vines are the most beautiful..."
Elder: “…”
Although he didn't know much about the situation outside, he had evolved after all, so how could he not hear what the young man said?
The few people in front of him claimed to be from the East District Search and Rescue Team. One of them hid in the corner with no sense of existence and looked like a quiet person. One was lively and just wanted to play from beginning to end. There was also another one... He almost wanted to set up a bed for the other one and let him sleep first.
Only the young man who spoke first was able to communicate, but he looked really strange and had white hair at such a young age.
Bai Chimian kicked Huo Xiao's butt very rudely. He could just fall into the shallow pit that others had just dug. "Don't mind it, he's just not very smart."
Huo Xiao pouted but didn't dare to refute. He brushed the dust off his butt and dejectedly ran to Wei Jingzhe's side.
He could have dodged it, but he wasn't stupid, because the one who kicked him was Brother Bai!
Thieves hold grudges!
After dodging, Brother Bai will definitely think of other ways to torment him, so it’s better to take a kick, which doesn’t hurt anyway.
"That's okay, but what's with this vine? It looks very familiar to the young man." The elder didn't say the word "weird" this time.
It was obvious that this thing was related to them, but since it had never hurt anyone, even though they were suspicious, they did not dare to provoke it.
It can actually cut alien species like vegetables!
With this level of combat power, even if they want to eat vegetables, they won't be stupid enough to attract hatred.
Bai Chimian had already walked into the cave with them. His eyes were filled with warmth, and he no longer had the arrogant look he had before.
Chen Qian couldn't help but complain about Bai Chimian, who started acting as soon as he came in.
Are you really worthy of being a businessman?
"Before I explain this, I'd like to ask what the beast patterns on your foreheads mean. Do you all have no bonded...partners?"
Bai Chimian's words turned around at the tip of his tongue.
The term "covenant" was coined by the Mutant Association, and these people didn't know it.
Chen Qian had explained the situation to him, but she herself only had a vague understanding of it, so she could only tell him what was obvious.
"Is this called animal pattern?"
“Why is it called Beast Pattern?”
"Yes, my wife is still pregnant~" A young man answered amidst the discussion.
Bai Chimian immediately looked at him. The beast pattern on his opponent was the original one, and it had not changed at all because of having a partner. "You..."
He was interrupted.
Ma Siwen, who came over, shouted anxiously, "Wait, let me answer your question. Uncle Cheng, let Aqi and the others go back first."
He had a strikingly handsome appearance, and his brows were slightly furrowed in anxiety, which gave him an indescribable aura.
The elder sighed and said, "You go and explain it to them. Everyone else, get back to work. Remember to process and distribute the food you hunted today."
The dozens of onlookers quickly dispersed after hearing this and each went about their business.
However, the windows of the nearby houses that were originally closed were secretly opened at some point. Occasionally, a few little heads popped out, but were quickly stuffed back in by the adults.
"Come in with me and sit inside. There are some things that cannot be known to others for the time being." For some reason, Ma Siwen's expression became a little strange after he saw the few people clearly.
After several changes and seeing that everyone else had left, he hesitantly took Bai Chimian and the others into the house.
Chen Qian's vines approached quietly, she also wanted to listen.
Then she was pinched.
A sinister voice came from above, "Do you really want to see him?"
