After Zhang Bin's death, there wasn't even any chaos; everyone in Xiaoyun Street came over to join them.
Looking at the team of about 300 people, Xu Xuening felt a little strange. These people did not look like prisoners.
"What do you think prisoners should look like? Or, what do criminals look like?" Wei Zizhou heard Xu Xuening's doubts and asked her back.
Xu Xuening asked tentatively, "A ferocious monster?" There should be some murderous aura or something, right?
In fact, she didn't understand either. The people she usually came into contact with mostly committed crimes like theft. She really didn't know what a criminal should be like.
Wei Zizhou, who had dealt with many criminals, shook his head. "Actually, they're just people, just like you and me. Some people are simply impulsive and happen to have a weapon at hand, so when they lose their mind, they harm others and themselves."
"What about these people?" Xu Xue Ning looked at the 300 people downstairs worriedly. They had taken over the street again, and Xie Yan was planning to continue expanding the third ring road. She had no idea what Xie Yan was planning.
"It's just survival in the apocalypse, don't worry." Wei Zizhou said.
What Wei Zizhou said was indeed correct. Here, no one seemed to be afraid of zombies. Unlike those who were hiding in Huacheng, they seemed to be more proactive.
"Mr. Xie, tell me, what do you want us to do?" After hearing that Zhang Bin was dead, these people wanted to clap their hands.
Zhang Bin was too selfish before. In order to get crystals for his superiors, he asked them to kill zombies every day. If they didn't deliver enough, he would force them to kill their own people. At first, they killed the good ones, and later, he simply infected some people with the virus and killed them.
After that madman who drove people crazy died, they couldn't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Everyone hopes that Xie Yan is different from Zhang Bin. As long as they can live well, they are not afraid of suffering a little more.
"This is where you live. The more places you have, the more abundant the resources. If you want to eat well, work hard."
"We will do our best, Mr. Xie." The first person immediately raised his hand to show his position.
…
After a brief acquaintance, Feng Nian stayed and explained some other things to Xie Yan.
"There were indeed some prisoners here before, but the people who came later have become much more mixed. The people above don't care about this place because there is very little food, medicine, and weapons here. If we want to survive, we must kill a certain number of zombies and hand over enough crystals in exchange for those things."
"I heard it was to develop those 'pills,'" Feng Nian said, reflecting on his speculation. "At first, I didn't pay much attention to it. I thought the higher-ups were weird. The whole city wasn't even getting enough food, yet they were asking us to get zombie crystals. While there was a certain risk of infection, killing zombies was relatively easy, so no one objected. But once we got used to this method, conflicts arose. Many of the people from the Xingma Club were evolved humans, and fearing they'd be killed by Zhang Bin, they fled. Later, more and more people started arriving."
"Contact the people over there." Xie Yan looked at Feng Nian, "Just tell them that if you want to survive, make a smart choice."
Hearing Xie Yan's words, Feng Nian cautiously suggested, "Well, the people from the Xing Ma Club left because they didn't feel threatened. This..."
"Who said I threatened them?" Xie Yan looked at Feng Nian and saw that he hadn't figured it out yet, so he spoke. "If they don't want to become experimental subjects, the best option now is to unite."
"Experimental subject?" Feng Nian looked at Xie Yan with some confusion.
"Come, let me tell you." Seeing that Feng Nian still didn't understand, Mr. Chen pulled his shoulder and started talking.
"Have you heard that people in Huacheng take a certain kind of pill every ten days or so?"
"I know about this. Isn't it the blocking medicine? I heard that it can prevent zombies from getting sick. When our boss, ah, no, it was Zhang Bin who asked the higher-ups for resources with that crystal stone, he got back a small portion of those pills. However, I think the people above must be lying." Feng Nian mentioned the pills with an indifferent look on his face.
"It's not really a lie." Mr. Chen laughed.
"How? Can it really prevent the zombie virus? But, I saw some people didn't die after taking it." Feng Nian didn't quite believe in the pill, so he didn't take any.
"Some people do not see any changes after taking it, but some people will almost become evolved humans after taking that pill." After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he looked at Feng Nian.
Feng Nian's expression gradually solidified from indifferent. Soon, he opened his mouth to say something, but just kept his mouth open. The news he heard made him so surprised that he didn't know what to say.
"...Evolved humans?" He looked at Mr. Chen, wanting to confirm again whether he had heard it wrong.
"Evolved humans." Chen Sheng said affirmatively, "Just think about it, why are there so many evolved humans when the zombies come?"
"That's right!" Feng Nian slapped his thigh immediately after Chen Sheng reminded him, "Why didn't I think of that?"
"So, Zhang Bin doesn't want others to become evolved humans and threaten his position." Xu Xuening listened to the conversation between Chen Sheng and Feng Nian, and she asked Wei Zizhou.
Wei Zizhou nodded. "It's very likely. According to the pill you mentioned, if he only takes one every ten days, he definitely wouldn't dare take more than that. Maybe there are more pills hidden in the house."
