Chapter 517 A Dilemma



However, although all of them have various choices, they are actually lucky because they are all still alive and their families are together. Considering the current situation, the whole world is so messed up, and they are already among the luckiest people.

"I heard that those on the islands are basically wiped out. Their buildings are very thin to begin with, and they're basically designed for ventilation. Once the temperature drops, they can't stand it. Some resourceful people may have taken some measures to keep warm at first, but there's limited vegetation on the islands, so even if you could use some to keep warm, it would be difficult. What's more, they're ventilated on all sides, and none of the buildings have good insulation. Sooner or later, they'll freeze to death. If the temperature drops by 10 degrees overnight, they might be frozen when they wake up. At room temperature, they'll die quickly. There's nothing that can be done about it."

"That's too tragic. We're doing relatively well here. At least most people have survived. The south is having a harder time, so we'll have to rely on support from the north for now. But no matter what, it's good enough to survive. Once the dungeon is unlocked, it will be even better. But there are some people we can't go to. No matter how much you hate them or like them, everything at this moment concerns the future of mankind, so we have to help if we can. Everyone should help each other and don't always refuse to help others. At least surviving is no problem. It's just the difference between eating better and eating worse."

"They say we're helping each other, and we're in a dungeon, but who knows how long it'll last? We're not short of supplies right now. We're not starving, but we can't eat well either. We've been eating dehydrated vegetables for days straight, and there's not much fruit to eat. I don't know what to do, either. But it's definitely not a good idea, is it? Think about it carefully, isn't it?"

Life has indeed become increasingly difficult these days. Although everyone knows that helping each other is of utmost importance at times like this, what can they do? They can't do it, and they don't have the ability to do so now.

"To be honest, if it were any other time, I'd definitely be willing to help others, especially if it's just an extra pair of chopsticks. It's no big deal, right? But now it's the apocalypse, and we all know that food is necessary for survival. How can we give these things to others at this time? It's simply impossible. The gap is too big. To be honest, I used to think these were not a big deal. After all, for us, since we can survive stably, we shouldn't be so demanding on other things, right?"

"When we think about the end of the world, we all feel this way, and we don't think there's anything wrong with it. But when it comes to this, is it really like this? I don't think things are that simple."

"Once you're sure you can survive, you'll want more, like eating better even in the apocalypse. When you're full, you'll naturally want to eat well. But when you're eating well, you'll naturally think about other aspects of your life and want to improve their quality. This is a normal human thought, and there's nothing right or wrong about it. For me, that's how it's done."

"I'm not willing to share either. I even hope that when we go to the underground city in the future, there will be a spacious place so we can go home and sort out our things. The things we brought here are very limited, and we don't know what is enough and what is not."

"Everyone should bring plenty of blankets, both thick and thin, so you won't be too rushed when you go to the dungeon. These things are absolutely useful, whether it's hot or cold. I think you should bring plenty of each blanket. It's better to bring more than too few, and thick and thin blankets can be stacked together. They can all be used anyway."

"Yes, no matter what it is, take as much as you can. The level of industrialization in the future will be completely different from now. What you can find now will be hard to find in the future, let alone brand new things. Even if you use it to exchange for supplies with others, it will be very cost-effective."

"That means it's not just quilts. I think we should bring more of everything. Because there won't be such opportunities in the future. Things will definitely become less and less, especially good things. No matter whether they are useful or not now, there will definitely be people who need them in the future."

"The problem is we can't take that much, so I said start with the basics. In such cold weather, keeping warm is definitely the most important thing. Let's talk about living together first. That definitely won't let you starve to death, but as elaborate as you might think, that's definitely impossible. So, in order to ensure that you have enough daily necessities or that they can be replaced or exchanged in the future, then bring these basic things. They will definitely be easy to sell. Just like instant noodles and some portable food, you can definitely exchange them with others. If you take some expensive luxury goods, who would be a fool to exchange them with you?"

"But if it's an underground city, the things we can bring are definitely limited. Not to mention the number of places, the space for each person is definitely limited. More importantly, the weather is so cold, and we can't go very far. If we collect supplies near home, we can still take some. Those who are still at home can pack up. I heard that it will be opened as soon as possible, but some people may live on the ground, such as in places where the heating is still well maintained. It's impossible for everyone to live in the underground city at once. It takes too much effort."
