The next morning, Chen Wan and the others had breakfast and started to help Wei Siyu. It had been raining intermittently in the past few days, and there had been no sun for several days. Fortunately, it didn't rain in the morning. Chen Wan and the others prepared things that would be needed for the meeting later.
Wei Siyu had also been preparing early in the morning and asked someone to bring Mike over here. Today she was going to announce the rules and regulations of the base again.
Chen Wan looked at the gloomy sky and said to Wei Siyu beside him, "Once the base is somewhat stable, I think you can start transporting a few large ships from the dock to the base. They should be large enough to be used for a short rest. This rainy weather is not accidental. Who knows what natural disasters may occur in the future."
"Are you talking about natural disasters like flash floods?" Wei Siyu followed Chen Wan and looked into the distance.
"Perhaps it is more frightening than a mountain torrent. In short, anything can happen in the apocalypse, so it's better to be prepared." Chen Wan sighed. Even humans with superpowers are still insignificant in front of nature. This is a fact that no one can change.
While Chen Wan and Wei Siyu were talking, people in front of the building gathered little by little, and from time to time there were voices of people discussing this matter in the crowd.
"Hey, I heard that the base will be set up to distribute wages according to work. Damn, then we can forget about having a good life in the future."
"I've heard about that, too. And they're not going to allow nightclubs anymore. All our privileges are gone, and we still have to work every day. It's so annoying."
"But these guys are pretty ruthless. The Ming brothers' abilities are recognized as the most powerful in our base, but they were wiped out by these women. We can't afford to offend them."
"Then I won't stay here. There are plenty of bases with beautiful Omegas. I don't need to stay here and suffer."
Of course, there were more joyful voices in the crowd. After all, the poor were still the majority here. They were all oppressed by the Ming brothers before. Now that there is a new base commander, these people are looking forward to the future development of the base.
"Maybe we can have a good life now. The Ming brothers bully men and women. I have always disliked them."
"I hope the new base commander can be a little fairer, at least making sure those of us working here have enough to eat."
"Who says it's not true? As long as I have enough to eat, I'm not afraid of doing any amount of work."
As the crowd gathered little by little, Chen Wan rode his bicycle around the base with a loudspeaker, reminding everyone to attend the meeting, and then returned to Wei Siyu and the others.
A little after eight o'clock, the front of the building was already full of people, about 900 people in total, while the total number of people in the entire base did not exceed 1,000.
Seeing that almost everyone was present, Wei Siyu asked everyone to be quiet. She took the microphone and began to read out the new order here. "In the future, the base will be managed under a new order. Everyone is equal. Everyone who wants to eat must work to get it. As for the previous bars, nightclubs and other places, they will all be abolished. We have too many things to prepare, and the base is not absolutely safe. Everyone must contribute to the construction of the base, otherwise they will not be allocated supplies. Also, the guards will be divided into teams to patrol the base in the future. If there is any bullying of others, the bully will be directly expelled from the base. Finally, I want to say that I will not force anyone to stay. Those who want to leave now can register at the side and remove the name you registered in the base, and you can leave. You can also take your personal belongings with you, but forget about the things in the base warehouse, they will not be distributed to those who leave."
After Wei Siyu finished speaking, there was a commotion among the people below. The most delighted ones were those who had come here before and had nothing. However, those who often went to nightclubs to live a life of luxury did not want to stay. The reason they stayed before was because they could enjoy privileges here. Now the privileges are gone and they have to work with those poor people. This is something they cannot accept. However, they did not dare to be the first to speak out, for fear that Wei Siyu just wanted to blow out all these unstable factors.
In fact, Wei Siyu really wanted to blow up these unstable factors. It was not that he wanted to get rid of all these people, but that he wanted to clear these restless people out of the base. In this way, the atmosphere in the base would be much better.
Seeing some people discussing, she added fuel to the fire: "Today is your only chance to leave voluntarily. From now on, if you accept supplies from the base, you will have to work for the base. We won't let you leave so easily again."
A burly man stood on the ground, gritted his teeth and shouted, "I'm leaving."
When the people below saw that someone was willing to be the first to take action, they all planned to run away.
"I'm leaving too. I'm going to the base in Jing City."
"Take me one."
The people below were talking in unison.
Wei Siyu frowned and looked at the people below coldly, "Everyone, be quiet. Those who want to leave, please go to the left and register your names. After the verification is completed, you can leave."
Those who didn't want to stay swarmed over. Chen Wan sat there to register them and took a quick look.
We roughly know that the number of people leaving is around 200.
Seeing that many people wanted to leave, Wei Siyu did not try to keep them. She just comforted those who wanted to stay and stipulated that all those who wanted to leave must leave the base before 5 pm today, and no one would be allowed to leave starting tomorrow.
There were too many people registering, so Jiang Yanxin opened another line on Chen Wan's side. It took them an hour to sort out all the people.
Those who were eager to escape hurried home to pack their things, fearing that they would be too late to leave.
At the same time, Chen Wan copied the list of those who were leaving and gave a copy to the captain of the guard team guarding the gate of the base, asking him to check the names of those leaving the base one by one so as to determine later who actually stayed in the base.
So the "tomorrow" base was in chaos all day long. Those who wanted to leave were eager to leave before noon. After all, if they left in the afternoon, it would be dark before they could drive far. Therefore, the situation at the gate was crowded. In the end, Wei Siyu had to bring people there to review it personally.
In the afternoon, Chen Wan and the others went to where Qiao Shirui and the others lived to check on the children. The class monitor and Li Yue looked worried, but Qiao Shirui's condition had improved a little, and her fever had basically subsided. When she saw Chen Wan and the others, her eyes lit up.
"Sister, you are here, please sit down." Qiao Shirui looked at Chen Wan with bright eyes. This was the second time her sister had saved their lives, and she was very grateful to Chen Wan.
Chen Wan smiled and said, "I'm not going to sit down anymore. I just came over to see you guys."
She looked at Li Yue and the squad leader, smiled and comforted them: "Don't be so sad, the base will be under the unified management of Wei Siyu and the others from now on, and those bad things before will not happen again. You are still children, and it is not easy to get to where you are now in the apocalypse. Don't put so much pressure on yourself."
"Well, thank you, sister." Li Yue responded obediently, with a sad look between her eyebrows that was not suitable for a girl of her age.
"You must also take good care of your health. It's already great that we can survive in this world." Chen Wan continued to encourage Qiao Shirui.
Qiao Shirui nodded with a red face. She knew that Sister Chen Wan had a wife and a baby, but she still had an inexplicable admiration for Chen Wan. It might be because this sister saved them selflessly twice when they were in danger.
Chen Wan looked at Li Yue and asked, "How is Zhao Jingjing?"
Li Yue looked at the ground and replied in a low voice: "The
The wounds have been treated with medicine, but he is still not in the right mind and often thinks we are bad people."
Chen Wan patted Li Yue's shoulder and said, "Take your time. Once the base is truly operational and the atmosphere is improved, it will be beneficial for Zhao Jingjing's condition. Besides, our registration list also includes everyone's pre-apocalyptic occupations. I remember there are several doctors on it. Asking them to come and see Zhao Jingjing might be able to help."
"Thank you, sister." Several children expressed their gratitude.
Yiyi, who came with them, was bored, so she simply went back to Wei Siyu and told her about calling a doctor. Wei Siyu quickly asked the guards to take Yiyi to find a few doctors and go to the children's residence.
After examining the patient, the doctors basically all gave the same opinion: the patient had been greatly traumatized, and it would be difficult for him to recover to his previous level in the apocalypse. However, as long as he did not face greater trauma in the future, his condition might improve.
Several children looked gloomy, and the monitor's eyes turned red with self-blame. "It's all my fault. I should have rushed into the nightclub and fought them."
"What happened after the fight? Were you and Zhao Jingjing killed by those beasts? And you also went to ask for people. This is not your fault, it's the fault of those beasts. The people who betrayed you and the Ming brothers are all dead. It can be regarded as helping you clean up these garbage. You and Li Yue must be well. Qiao Shirui's body is not well yet, and Zhao Jingjing needs your care. You must take good care of yourselves so that you can have the energy and physical strength to protect those around you."
"I understand, sister." The monitor sniffed.
Chen Wan took out a box and handed it to the squad leader. "Here are 500 level 1 zombie crystal cores. Each of you should take 10 per day. This stuff is good for your body and improves your various functions. Remember to eat them all. Don't skimp. Take 10 per person every day. You might even gain superpowers. In the future, if you kill a zombie, remember to take the crystal core from the zombie's head. This is energy that can help you gain superpowers."
When the squad leader heard what Chen Wan said, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Sister, this thing is too precious. You've saved us twice, and we don't know how to repay you. How can we accept such a valuable gift if you give us something like this again?"
"Yes, sisters, you should keep this thing and eat it." Li Yue also felt that she couldn't accept it. She felt embarrassed that her sisters had saved them twice, so how could she take such a precious thing from her sisters?
After all, in their opinion, zombies have to be killed one by one. If there are 500 zombies, my sister might lose all her belongings.
Gave it to them.
But for Chen Wan, these level 1 zombie crystal cores can be obtained by driving an RV, honking the horn, and then driving the RV back and forth a few times. It is really not that troublesome. Moreover, the character of these children is really impeccable. After experiencing such things, they still think about their friends in everything and don't want to take advantage of others. These are rare in the end times. Chen Wan really hopes that these children can get superpowers one day, so that they can at least protect the people they want to protect.
"Why can't you take it? You call me sister, so what's there to be embarrassed about? If you really treat me as your sister, you will definitely accept this. Even if the base is safe now, no one can tell what will happen in the future. What's wrong with having super powers? You are all good kids. With super powers, you can protect those who need protection. Even if you don't have super powers after eating it, it can enhance the various functions of your body. Listen to me, take it." Chen Wan said and stuffed the small box into the squad leader's hands.
Jiang Yanxin also advised: "Just take what your sister gives you. We are leaving. We may see each other again someday. By then, you may be more powerful than us adults, and your sisters may need your protection."
The squad leader, who was over 1.8 meters tall, couldn't help shedding tears. Li Yue also stood aside and secretly wiped away tears. Their parents and relatives were gone, and they really regarded Chen Wan and the others as their sisters. Now they couldn't hold back their tears.
Chen Wan patted his back and comforted him: "Cry if you want to. These things are not something you kids should bear, but there is no other way. In the end times, everyone must take on their own responsibilities. Only in this way can we live better. I believe that when we meet next time, you will be living a good life, okay?"
"I will work hard, sister. We will protect you next time we meet." The squad leader wiped the tears from her face and gave Chen Wan a tearful smile.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to grow up. Let's stop talking. We have to go back and prepare. We'll leave tomorrow morning." Chen Wan said with a smile.
"Sisters, where are you going?" Qiao Shirui knew that Chen Wan and the others were leaving, but she was still reluctant to let them go. She felt at ease with her sisters around.
"We need to find the cores of Level 3 mutant animals. In the apocalypse, improving our strength is paramount. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep the precious people around us. We have to do something." If possible, Chen Wan and the others would also like to find a place to settle down, but that's clearly a luxury in the apocalypse.
