According to statistics, the food brought by the group was enough for everyone in the air-raid shelter to live for more than seven days. However, the food was relatively simple, consisting of only a small amount of vegetables and a few scarce fruits, as well as rice, flour, cooking oil, water, and dried meat.
However, as everyone knows, the current situation is special. It is already difficult to have enough to eat and wear, so we don't need to demand a balanced diet with a mix of meat and vegetables.
Yu Wei strode down the corridor, encountering several people carrying weapons who greeted him along the way. He smiled and nodded back at them as a gesture of greeting.
"Where have you been these past few days? How's it going?"
Mondo handed him a bottle of water and looked up at him.
"I'm checking the situation in the occupied area. We've already made contact with the Alliance headquarters." Yu Wei finished half a bottle of water in one gulp and wiped the water off his hands. "I'll be working with headquarters to deploy the battle plan these next few days. I'll leave things to you and Scarface here."
People usually refer to the areas swept by the rebels as occupied areas, and Yuwei is no exception.
However, based on the current situation, Qinghe is entirely occupied, except for the air-raid shelters.
"I understand." Mondo nodded, then lowered his head to continue calculating resource consumption. "Any news from outside?"
“Yes, the Qinghe municipal government officials surrendered along with the police.” Yu Wei gripped the bottle tightly in his hand, the veins on the back of his hand bulging. “It’s also possible that it wasn’t a surrender at all, but a long-planned internal and external alliance.”
"How so?"
Mondo raised his head, his blue eyes shimmering.
"I initially thought the city gates were having trouble operating because of the rebels' heavy firepower, but after inspection, I found that it wasn't a system problem at all. Someone had deliberately cut off the system's energy supply, affecting its operation."
The energy supply terminal for the "city gate" is located in the office building of a special security department established by the municipal government. Only designated and authorized maintenance personnel and department heads are allowed to enter the control room.
"That's really surprising."
Montau lowered his eyes and continued to write and draw in his notebook.
Yu Wei didn't bother him anymore. He walked over to the scarred man who was concentrating on learning to shoot and patted him on the shoulder.
"General, what is it?"
Scarface reluctantly put down his homemade rifle and followed Yu Wei to the corner.
"I've told you so many times, don't call me General, just call me Yu Wei." Yu Wei put his hand on his shoulder and pressed him down to squat down. "The rebels are killing ordinary people indiscriminately in the occupied areas. It seems they haven't discovered this place yet. You organize the self-defense forces and keep watch 24 hours a day."
“Okay.” The scarred man nodded, then quickly realized, “General, aren’t you going to organize it yourself?”
“I have other things to take care of, so I’ll be leaving soon and will be back by the morning after tomorrow at the latest. I’ll be counting on you here.” Yu Wei thought for a moment and added, “You’ll mainly be in charge of organizing the defense. As for the distribution of supplies, leave that to Meng Duo.”
"I see..." The scarred man raised his chin thoughtfully, then nodded emphatically. "I'll take care of things here. You can go do your work without worry."
"I knew you were reliable."
Yu Wei clenched his fist and punched the scarred man on the shoulder, then bumped fists with him.
"By the way, should we tell them about this?"
"No need. This is an underground air-raid shelter. The rebels probably won't be able to find it anytime soon. Telling them might cause panic, so there's no need."
"I see... Hmm... Okay, I'll listen to you." The scarred man stood up and raised his fist: "Be careful."
"Yes, thank you."
Yu Wei bumped fists with him, then went to Meng Duo's place, took a few bottles of water and some portable dry food, and left.
A few days ago, he successfully entered the occupied area by disguising himself and even contacted headquarters, but unfortunately he has not been able to find the hiding place of the rebel leader in this riot.
Defeating the rebel leader would be entirely beneficial to both the supporting troops and the survivors of Qinghe City.
Yu Wei caught a glimpse of the approaching orc patrol in the distance, then slipped into an alley and reappeared with a completely different appearance.
His entire body was wrapped in golden vines, leaving only a pair of bright eyes. It was a pity that his second differentiation did not activate the second form, otherwise he could have directly used the second form of the half-orc, instead of this silly plant-like form.
After all, who could resist a big, fluffy cat?
Due to genetic inheritance, theoretically most people have a first and second form. Some people are human in the first form, but after developing the second form, they can switch freely between human and orc forms. Similarly, orcs can switch freely between the two forms after developing the second form.
For example, Zhou Siyu's wings were born because he encountered danger during his second differentiation, which triggered his latent genes and caused him to grow wings.
However, with current technology, it is not yet known how to activate the second form, since only a few can successfully activate the second form.
"Hey, where did my little brother go?"
A shirtless, bearded man slapped Yu Wei on the shoulder, nearly turning him from a three-dimensional being into a two-dimensional being stuck to the ground.
"I went to the restroom, and I'm a little short on food."
Yu Wei opened a bulge-like object on his body, and food and water spilled all over the ground.
"Huh? You, a person in a vegetative state, eat meat?"
The burly man picked up a piece of jerky, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed. The rich aroma of meat and spices filled his mouth, and he squinted his eyes contentedly, every hair on his beard radiating pleasure.
“What’s wrong with eating meat? Carnivorous plants eat meat too, and they fight fiercely. How dare you look down on a person in a vegetative state! I’m going to tell Essen to beat you up.”
Essen is a rare man-eating flower semi-vegetarian, half a head taller than Yu Wei, tall and strong, with super combat power. His second form is a very terrifying man-eating flower.
