Chapter 1037 Divide and Conquer



Seeing the S-shaped ghoul that was still moving swiftly even after being shot, Lu Yuan's eyes showed a hint of solemnity.

"It seems we need to come up with a better way to deal with this Z-type ghoul. If we take the initiative to attack, we simply can't catch up with it. In that case, we should think of a better way. We can't attack it proactively now!"

However, now that the Z-type ghouls have been shot, they seem to have become less courageous.

Lu Yuan and the others stood there waiting for more than ten minutes, but the Z-type ghoul did not appear.

Lu Yuan immediately ordered his team to launch a pincer attack on the cannibals that had appeared in the river.

However, just as Lu Yuan and his men began to attack the ghouls from both sides, the ghouls seemed to have received an order and immediately abandoned the team members in front of them, rushing madly towards the river.

In less than two minutes, all the cannibals had entered the river.

Apart from the cannibals who were beaten to death on the riverbank.

Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and waved to Wang Mingming and the others on the other side of the river.

Then the people on the other side cautiously approached the riverbank, but no one dared to get close, for who knew if the cannibals in the river were lurking.

"Are you all alright?"

Wang Mingming asked Lu Yuan a question, her voice tinged with a mixture of emotion and lingering fear.

Lu Yuan simply waved his hand slightly: "We're fine, let's go back first. It seems that if we want to open Mountain No. 3, we have to deal with these ghouls first, otherwise we won't be able to enter Mountain No. 3 at all!"

After checking the area around the riverbank to ensure there was no danger, Lu Yuan immediately ordered people to begin crossing the river.

However, this was to prevent the cannibals in the deep water from attacking them.

Lu Yuan ordered his men to build up stones on both sides of the riverbank to reduce the water flow in the middle and prevent the lurking cannibals from suddenly appearing.

Everyone cautiously made their way to Mountain Number Three, watching their surroundings warily. Lu Yuan knew that the Z-type ghoul was unlikely to attack them again.

At least for now, it seems that the Z-type ghoul has lost the will to oppose me.

"This place looks like it's going to become very dangerous in the future. We must solve this problem as soon as possible. However, the Z-type ghouls are not easy to deal with because their brains think like normal people. We have to use some tricks to deal with them!"

Wang Mingming squatted to the side, quietly looking at the map that Lu Yuan had thrown to the ground.

"Brother Lu, what do you think we should do about this type of ghoul? How about we bring all our teams here and launch a cleanup operation to wipe out all the ghouls here?"

Lu Yuan shook his head.

"No, our numbers are simply not enough to clear these ghouls out of here. Their greatest ability is to hide underwater and not come out."

Are we going to check even underwater locations? They're too smart; we simply can't eliminate them all!

Wang Mingming sighed helplessly, unable to come up with any good ideas for the moment.

The other team members all had the same expression. Lu Yuan scratched his head and pondered for a while.

However, what he was thinking about at the moment was not how to deal with this ghoul, but how to gain gratitude points faster through these types of ghouls.

After pondering for a long time, Lu Yuan suddenly had an idea.

"Perhaps I was going in the wrong direction from the beginning, always thinking that wanting to acquire a large amount of gratitude points was a very quick method."

But actually, doing this might actually make me gain gratitude points at a slower rate than before! Helping others with things they can't do seems to give me more perception!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but turn his head to look at the rushing river behind him, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

"By the way, why did we kill all these ghouls if we wanted to get here? Maybe he just wanted to live peacefully with us!"

"Then we just need to demarcate a portion of this area! This will reduce our casualties while isolating us from these cannibals!"

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

"And as long as I help these people or provide them with food, won't they start to feel grateful to me?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but shout out excitedly, but he remained calm. After checking the nearby locations with everyone, he silently drew another circle on the map.

However, this circle did not completely enclose the entire No. 3 mountain.

He divided the entire No. 3 area into two parts: one part was used to grow mushrooms, and the other part was left for the cannibals to carry out their activities.

After all, if their entire living space is compressed to nothing, the cannibals will definitely attack them. If their living space is defined, the cannibals will avoid it when they encounter a wall.

However, it seems a bit difficult to completely stop all these ghouls.

They didn't have large machinery, and building a wall with just the tools they had on hand was not only difficult, but also not sturdy enough.

Without cement, concrete, or any of these materials, a pile of stones is just a pile; it could easily be toppled over with a gentle push.

But Lu Yuan couldn't care less about that now. Delineating the area was the first thing he needed to do. After finding the location on the map where he had just discovered the ghoul, he drew a circle around that location, dividing the entire island into two parts.

Lu Yuan used part of it to grow mushrooms, and the rest was used to provide activities for these cannibals.

However, Lu Yuan knew that these cannibals couldn't be left like this forever. The current priority was to gradually reduce their space and eliminate their numbers bit by bit.

Then, Lu Yuan's mind continued to develop, and he connected these things with the gratitude he received, constantly thinking about how to maximize the benefits for his infected people and how to acquire more and more hostages faster.

"I can't tell anyone about growing mushrooms for now. After all, I can't tell them that I can easily grow mushrooms. If everyone knew that I could grow mushrooms, they might not feel as grateful to me as they do. They might take it for granted!"

I'm going to divide these people into several groups, then secretly tell them this secret, and they'll go in to pick mushrooms in batches. That way, everyone will be grateful to me!
