Xu Mo's words also moved the other people in the camp. A trace of longing flashed in their eyes. After all, no one doesn't want to live a safe and stable life.
Everyone lowered their heads slightly and began to weigh the pros and cons of what Xu Mo said in their minds, imagining what the prison shelter would look like.
On the other side, Sean listened to Xu Mo's words, looked at the atmosphere in the camp, and his brows gradually frowned. Suddenly, he understood Xu Mo's intention and thought to himself: Xu Mo wants to fight for the command of this team!
A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, his face became gloomier, and he felt a little indignant.
Although there is no actual leader in this camp, most people usually obey his orders. By doing this, Xu Mo is undoubtedly reducing his voice in the camp.
Thinking of this, Sean couldn't help but stand up and said in a raised voice: "Xu Mo, our camp is so far away from the city, and it's in the mountains. How could there be so many zombies? Are you exaggerating?"
He crossed his arms over his chest, staring straight at Xu Mo with a provocative look in his eyes, trying to intimidate him with his aura.
Xu Mo glanced at Sean, his eyes calm and composed, not affected by Sean's aura at all. He replied calmly, "Then how do you explain the zombie that appeared in the woods?"
His eyes were firm, as if the zombie was the most powerful evidence and Sean would not be allowed to refute it.
Sean paused, a flicker of panic in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "Maybe it was a ranger who originally lived in the forest and happened to wander near the camp after becoming a zombie."
As he spoke, he gestured in the air with his hands, trying to make his explanation seem more reasonable, but he was a little unsure.
After saying that, Sean added, "One more thing. You said the prison there is very safe. How can you guarantee its safety? Besides, it's at least sixty or seventy miles from here to the place you mentioned. Can you afford the dangers along the way?"
There was doubt in his eyes and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, as if he felt that he had found a loophole in Xu Mo's plan and wanted to use it to get everyone to stand on his side.
Sean's words were also recognized by most people in the camp.
They all nodded with expressions of agreement on their faces, thinking that what Sean said made sense, and the slight interest they had in Xu Mo's plan gradually faded away.
"Sean is right. How could there be zombies in such a remote place? Xu Mo, you are taking it too seriously."
Someone echoed this, with a look of dissatisfaction towards Xu Mo, thinking that he was creating panic for no reason.
"That's right, we've been here for over a month. If there really were zombies, wouldn't we have been finished long ago?"
Another person followed suit, patting the person next to him on the shoulder as if seeking approval, with a look of certainty on his face.
"Besides, this place is really too far away, about sixty or seventy miles. Besides, capturing the prison is not that easy."
Someone else added with a frown, his eyes full of worry about the long journey and the difficulty of capturing the city. He shook his head, thinking that Xu Mo's plan was too risky.
"But what Xu Mo said makes sense. We should arrange for people to patrol during the day and guard at night. As for the wall, we can use the wood from the forest near the camp to build a wall."
There were also relatively rational people who proposed a compromise idea. Their eyes showed thinking, and they felt that this could solve the current safety problem without having to take the risk of going so far.
Other people in the camp started talking one after another, and the atmosphere became a little noisy.
Although Xu Mo's words seemed to them to be fine, the place Xu Mo mentioned was too far away. They had already lived a stable life here and were really unwilling to continue traveling.
They are all attached to this temporary stability in their hearts, are full of fear of the unknown distance, and do not want to disrupt their existing peaceful life to take risks.
Instead of looking for a safe place to set up shelter, it is better to stay here and transform the camp into a safe haven.
Everyone silently agreed with this idea and felt that this was safer.
Listening to what others said, Xu Mo lowered his head and thought for a while.
He frowned slightly, thinking: Build a wooden wall here? Create a structure similar to the mountaintop village?
There was a thoughtful look in his eyes, and his mind was quickly analyzing the feasibility of this approach.
Xu Mo looked around and quickly shook his head, having already made a judgment in his mind.
He knew very well that the terrain here was completely different from that of the mountaintop village. There was a cliff behind him, and there was only one way up and down the mountain. Once the road was blocked by zombies or humans from other forces, it would be over.
A hint of worry flashed in his eyes as he realized the huge hidden dangers in this camp, but judging by the expressions of everyone, it seemed that no one realized this.
Moreover, the soil near the abandoned quarry camp is relatively thin and not suitable for growing crops, making it impossible to achieve self-sufficiency.
He sighed helplessly, thinking that everyone was thinking too simply, only seeing the immediate stability but ignoring these fatal problems.
The most important point is that this place is only two miles away from Atlanta, which is too close. Tides of zombies will definitely pass through here frequently. In Xu Mo's opinion, all the people will be dead before the wall is built.
He was a little anxious, but he also knew that no one would listen to him, so he could only worry in secret.
