Chapter 214 The Poor Kid in the Apocalypse 44
With electricity, many things can be done. Shen Ci's goal is not to rule this place or to become the leader of a group of people. She just wants to be a guide.
As things stand now, people have become disillusioned with the world and society, with no hope of recovery. Civilization seems to have died out, as if it has been interrupted.
But in reality, humanity does not give up so easily. Now, even if they see a glimmer of hope, they will actively try to grasp it. With a glimmer of hope, there may be more possibilities. Just like during the six months when everyone thought the light would never appear again, they were plunged into darkness.
But now the lights are back on, and the whole city is pitch black. The natural and man-made disasters of the past six months have almost destroyed all the forests on this land, but if you look up at the starry sky, the stars are still so bright.
Before, when you looked up, you couldn't see the stars at all.
There are lights, stars, and light, as if saying that this land will be revitalized.
Everyone was exhausted from their busy day, building a shelter and a base with their own hands. When they saw the lights come on at night, everyone felt that what they had done must have been useful.
This is a very good motivation, instantly making those who are uneasy, uneasy, and have not made up their minds firm!
This leader is too awesome. He was able to generate electricity from zombies on the very first day. Looking at the entire Dongfang City, is there anyone else who could come up with such a dirty trick, or rather, such a brilliant trick?
Who would have thought that such an energy source could be discovered without any other energy source available?! This guy is simply a genius!
After the power was turned on, Shen Ci had someone bring a list of names, which was organized by family unit.
She had a gun tucked into her waistband, brazenly unafraid of anyone seeing it; she believed that no one here could draw their gun faster than her.
Shen Ci stood with his hands behind his back, followed by several people, including Wang Jianguo, who was the first family to seek refuge with him. Wang Jianguo seemed to be an honest and kind man, and his family members did not seem to be unreasonable people either.
"Welcome to Dawn Base, a place we've built together."
Although it is the end times now, the end times will eventually pass and society will return to a civilized state, so there is still order in our base.
No one may engage in fights without cause, harm members of the base, or arbitrarily plunder other people's supplies.
At our Dawn Base, order remains the same as before the apocalypse. I will distribute the first batch of seeds to everyone, and you will need to collect the seeds yourselves afterward.
By tomorrow, the area of land owned by each household will be determined and allocated according to the number of people. Each household will grow only what they need to eat, with those who grow well receiving more and those who grow poorly receiving less.
Of course, I will also give you some food rations first so that you can get through the early stages when there is no harvest. It will still be distributed per person.
We have electricity now, so we don't need to worry about power for a while. If you see any young, strong zombies that are not too decomposed, remember to capture them and bring them back to generate electricity.
After completing the tasks assigned by the base each day, you can spend the rest of your time exploring the city for useful resources.
Everything is just beginning. Shen Ci has only mentioned some basic requirements. We'll write down and post the rest of the notices as we come up with new ones.
"Chief, do we need to hand over the collected supplies?"
"In other places, everything we collect each day needs to be handed over and then distributed in a unified manner."
At this point, some people raised a question. After all, resources are limited and will be gone once they are eaten. But this place not only provides seeds and food, but also allows everyone to explore freely, and everyone can live in a house with electricity.
It's so good it's almost unreal.
"Good question."
Our base is different from others. Our goal is to restore civilized society. We bring everyone here so that everyone's power can be utilized to rebuild this society.
Therefore, any supplies, food, water, and tools that you freely explore belong to you. Within the base, acts such as murder and robbery are prohibited.
Outside the base, we must not turn our own people's swords against our own.
Everyone can rest today. Registration and food distribution will begin tomorrow. You will arrange your accommodations in a little while, with each family assigned a unit. Although this is the countryside and the houses are not as nice as those in the city, they are still habitable and provide shelter from the wind and rain.
After the assignments are made, everyone can rest.
After making the arrangements, Shen Ci took Da Bao back. Today was their first day at the Dawn Base. Facing this base with nothing, everyone must be very excited. Let them rest well and calm down.
Although it is a suburb, the suburbs are not just shacks; there are also apartment buildings, but they are all self-built and close to farmland.
There aren't many people in the base right now, only about twenty in total. Of course, we need to prioritize assigning them to more sturdy concrete buildings. Even if the zombies are mutated and become stronger, they can't possibly smash a building with one punch.
Cement houses are safer. After carefully handling, studying, and understanding zombies, I realized that they are not actually that difficult to deal with. After all, they are just mortals, and there are too many things they are powerless to do.
Although it was a busy day, Da Bao was in a good mood and even hummed a song on the way home.
He wanted to go back to before the apocalypse and be with his mother. He wasn't bloodthirsty, and the sight of devastation, collapsed houses, and man-eating monsters everywhere didn't excite him.
No normal person would feel excited.
How many years has peace been in the world? Nobody has had enough of the good life and wants to come to the apocalypse to survive. One by one, relatives and friends die in front of them. They have to endure hunger every day, worry about being betrayed by their own kind, and be attacked by zombies. They have to be careful even when they breathe.
None of the survivors wanted to experience such a disaster and the pain of separation and death again.
Perhaps in the past, the apocalypse never ended, and everyone was struggling to make ends meet, barely surviving. Where would they find the energy to think about restoring the world?
Perhaps, no one will make it through.
But this time, everyone will end the apocalypse with their own hands.
Dawn Base.
Wang Jianguo's family of five was also allocated a house, a three-bedroom, one-living room apartment. Most importantly, it was safe. In the apocalypse, there are plenty of houses, but safe ones are few and far between.
The base was surrounded by an electric fence and guards patrolling at night. Although everything was a bit rushed on the first day and many things were not yet ready, at least everyone could get a good night's sleep.
How much food do we have left at home?
Wang Jianguo asked.
