Chapter 073
The Invisible Circle
After Zhao Nan left, only Wang Cheng and four other men and one woman were left in the room, and the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward.
Wang Cheng suddenly didn’t know how to break the ice. At that time, the beautiful young woman introduced herself cheerfully: “My name is Yuan Rui. I have no combat ability. I rely on you to have a place to live. I will not compete with you.” I eat very little supplies. I am also willing to give you the share of supplies that the military allocates to me. If there is really any danger, just let me follow you. If something happens, you don’t need to Just come here to save me and let me follow you.”
She was a little nervous.
She was a smart and brave woman who could see that the “treatment” she was receiving now meant that for other survivors, she tried hard to stay in the team, and immediately started to attack the room that was a mess after those people left.
“I can also help you wash clothes, pack things, and deal with injuries. I have some medical knowledge.”
Yuan Rui also knew that Wang Qi, who was following her, did not have much say.
Wang Qi didn’t say anything at this time. He was grateful to Wang Cheng. Although he wanted to keep Yuan Rui, he would not cross the line and knew where to measure.
Wangcheng didn’t matter. His current battleship was big enough. Even if he was assigned a room, he would still have to stay in the car most of the time, so he looked at Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao.
He introduced Wang Qi and talked about the relationship between Wang Qi and Yuan Rui in a vague way.
Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao were also a little confused.
After a moment of silence, Xu Xinghai sighed and said: “It’s okay, then… the three of us are sleeping in the room, and you are outside. It’s not easy, let’s help each other.”
Wang Qi and Yuan Rui both looked grateful.
Wang Chengze briefly exchanged information with Xu Xinghai and others.
Just as Wang Cheng had judged before, they retreated to the grain store that day. They originally wanted to wait for Wang Cheng. However, they were attacked by hordes of mutated creatures and had to move their location. Since then, they have lost contact with Wang Cheng. There were no dangers along the way. Xu Xinghai and Zhang Chao were able to protect themselves and followed the military to retreat here before reuniting with the royal city.
Xu Xinghai said: “When we came here, we discovered that this gathering point was barely functioning. If we didn’t join the Survivors Self-Defense Force, food and housing would be a problem. We only chose to join later. It can be considered that we are somewhat capable, otherwise there will be many Even if you want to join, you don’t have the chance.”
Wang Cheng also nodded.
Although there is no life or death within the survivor gathering point, life here is also not easy.
Xu Xinghai and the others came here for a day first, but they didn’t sit idle. They basically got a rough idea of the situation here. Zhao Nan gave each of them an identity card, which was like a work card. When they participated in the operation and received the supplies issued by the military, they followed the numbers on the identity cards.
At this time, it was time to receive supplies. Xu Xinghai took everyone’s ID badges, walked out of the room with Wang Cheng, and introduced the situation here to Wang Cheng.
“There are three buildings in this community, all of which are for the self-defense survivors. The living conditions are similar to ours. There are just a few more people living in the big house and a few fewer people living in the small house. About half of the people live there every day. To be mobilized, ordinary survivors are mainly responsible for assisting in defense. The awakened ones may be responsible for some tasks of following the military to fight. However, the military is very measured. Although they have recruited people like us, they do not have strict requirements. Even if we participate Fighting is also based on ensuring our safety. As for the people here…”
Xu Xinghai’s eyes moved and looked around.
There were actually quite a few people on both sides pointing at them, probably saying that they were the awakened ones sent by so and so, and that they had a very strong relationship.
Seeing their eyes glancing over, those people naturally kept silent and shrank into corners, or simply returned to their rooms.
Wang Cheng touched his nose, his expression was a little strange.
You can obviously rely on your strength to make a living, so why did you become a connected person inexplicably?

But it doesn’t matter. Becoming a related household means that there will be a lot less trouble, which is also a good situation.
When Wang Cheng came here, he didn’t plan to have any trouble with the survivors. Instead, he planned to take the military’s express train and earn a lot of energy points.
The place to receive supplies was at the entrance of the community building. The military set up several tables to distribute supplies, including a bag of instant noodles and a piece of ham per person. When they came down, there was already a long queue outside the community. , and some other survivors were watching helplessly.
They were surrounded inside and out, and the military even set up a cordon to separate ordinary people from those who were receiving supplies from the survivors’ Self-Defense Force.
Xu Xinghai explained: “The food we distribute is relatively good. Ordinary survivors outside can only get a little rice soup and noodle soup a day…” The
military is in a tight war situation and is in short supply. It is difficult to ensure that the hundreds of thousands of people in the gathering point are fed. Wearing warm clothes is enough if you don’t starve to death or freeze to death. At this time, the key supplies still need to be taken care of for the combatants. This is not a favoritism. Once the combatants are not fed or clothed, then who can protect the survivors? Base security?
But with the military’s warning, even if those people were greedy, no one dared to touch it. After all, they still had something to eat and were not starving to death. Otherwise, everyone might not care.
Of course, the military has gathered so many survivors together not to starve everyone here.
The queue was quite long. When Wang Cheng and the others came, there were hundreds of people in front of them, so they had to queue up honestly.
But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion among the ordinary survivors gathered outside the community. The crowd parted with cheers. Several cars drove in from the front. Two seven-seater business cars, which seemed to be members of the Self-Defense Forces, were at the door. They stopped at the point where supplies were distributed. They didn’t see anyone queuing up. They drove straight away. Two people got off. They greeted the military people and moved away two boxes of supplies. The quantity was obviously far more than two commercial vehicles. of people, and I didn’t see any identity badges they used.
Following the opened car door, Wang Cheng was slightly startled when he saw the person sitting in the car. He actually recognized him. It was Qin Hai who had passed with them before.
Did he just arrive?
Xu Xinghai saw Wang Cheng staring at the two cars, thinking that Wang Cheng was surprised that these people didn’t have to queue up, so he whispered: “That’s Qin Hai… a celebrity from the research institute, and all the awakened people gathered around him The master is a recognized super team here. He is covered by the research institute, has no shortage of supplies, and also enjoys priority rights to various bonuses… It is said that he accepted the first phase of the awakened person’s ability improvement experiment from the research institute. Now he is the person closest to the second level awakened person. Whether he can get the universal password for the awakened person to break through the second level depends on him. Therefore, this guy is a first-class big shot here.” Special things, there
are Strength, useful people, enjoy more resources, and the strong themselves can receive more respect during this period.
It’s just…
Wang Cheng recalled that Qin Hai’s ability was not something he had never seen before. It was indeed more powerful than the average awakened person’s ability, but it was about the same as his own line of fire.
If we really count the overall strength, Wang Cheng has the bonus of strength and speed, and is confident that he can crush this Qin Hai.
Not to mention…
among the battleships in the royal city at this moment, there is also a special serum with level 2 power and two level 1 serums that can give fire abilities.
As long as he wants to, he can create two awakened beings with similar strength to Qin Hai in minutes…
Xu Xinghai is still introducing, saying: “Actually, I only gradually figured out the way today. Wherever there are people, there are Circles are no exception at all times. Our Self-Defense Force of Survivors also has invisible circles. This Qin Hai and several other powerful awakeners, such as Wu Haicheng and Dong Zhiguo, are similar to this Qin Hai. They Assisting the scientific research institute to study them, so they are favored by the scientific research institute. There are also a group of non-awakened survivors who are said to be related to so and so above. The ones who live with us today are the non-awakened ones. The people around us, but they know that behind us is Battalion Commander Zhang, so they shouldn’t dare to do anything. Anyway, we didn’t do anything to them.” After
Xu Xinghai’s reminder, Wang Cheng realized belatedly that it seemed that indeed In this way, even this long team is obviously divided into several groups.
In the apocalypse, terrible disasters are the root cause of things going from bad to worse, as are the conflicts between people that can never stop.
A mere survivor self-defense force is so complicated, and this temporary gathering point for survivors in Haicheng should be even more undercurrent.
Wang Cheng knew that Xu Xinghai was reminding him to be careful. He nodded, but it was closely related to another term Xu Xinghai mentioned: “Scientific Research Institute, what kind of institution is that? Does it study awakened people?”
