Zombie Crisis: Survival comes first

Hearing this, the old woman was not upset at all. She took the glasses on the table and put them into the box. She said softly: "Aren't you curious why you met the helmeted army?"

"By the way, they have another name."

"What?" Chen Yu asked.

"Scavenger!"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yi was stunned, "Isn't this the name of a kind of fish? I heard that it is a harmful fish and likes to eat other fish eggs..."

When she said this, she suddenly said in surprise: "You mean, those people are just like the scavengers, gobbling up other survivors everywhere?"

"It's not devouring." The old woman took the glasses case into the drawer, then folded her hands on the table and said word by word: "They are massacres, indiscriminate killings, without any reason, whether they are women, old people, or Others will not be left alive.”

"Of course, some good-looking girls will avoid death, but what happens later is worse than death."

"Only through unity can mankind overcome all crises. If this continues, aren't we afraid of being united by other forces to annihilate them?" Chen Yu didn't understand.

"So, they didn't come out to kill everyone until this year."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"After the apocalypse broke out, the population of various cities dropped sharply, and a large number of survivors fled. No one knows how many of them there are." The old woman glanced at him and spoke with an indifferent expression.

"In less than a year, many people can plunder a week or even a month's worth of food just by walking into the city."

"But now, no resources are being produced again. So as time goes by, there is less and less food to eat, and humans have begun to group together and even reproduce. Even if they can be planted, how will they survive in the future?"

Hearing this, Chen Yu fell into deep thought. It was not just what the old woman said, but what happened yesterday was indeed not normal.

Take the books in the library, for example. Are these things important? Not necessarily, at least in many cases, people cannot survive, so even if the knowledge in the book can save lives, it is meaningless.

As Chen Yu understood a long time ago, civilization without people will eventually be meaningless, so he prepared to integrate all the forces around the villa area and form an alliance together.

However, due to the numerous things going on, this matter has not officially started yet.

But Chen Yu believed that there must be many survivors hiding in various areas, but they just didn't come out.

Now after hearing what the old woman said, he suddenly realized.

"So, in the past, it was because food was plentiful and supplies were easy to obtain that many people hid themselves well and did not come into contact with anyone?"

After he finished speaking, the old woman glanced at Chen Yu and nodded with satisfaction, "It seems you are not stupid. I thought you would say it was because too many humans died."

The next second, Chen Yu said softly: "We really felt this way before, because many times we couldn't meet any living people."

"But why did some survivors start eating people half a year ago?" Lin Yi frowned slightly, remembering something, "According to you, there used to be a lot of food, so humans hid, so why did they choose to eat people? "

At this moment, Chen Yu's eyes widened suddenly. He turned to look at Lin Yi, and then said with a solemn expression: "They eat people not only to survive, but also to reduce the number of other humans!"

"Bah bang bang!" The old woman touched her hands and started to applaud.

"My little friend, it seems that I did not misjudge the person."

Then Chen Yu put his hand on Lin Yi's knee and spoke earnestly: "This may be the dark law of doomsday. When a thousand people survive in an area, the supplies may only be enough for everyone to tighten their belts and survive."

"But if the number of people reaches 300, then everyone can eat three meals a day."

"What the scavenger has to do is to reduce the number of people to one hundred or even fifty." The old woman suddenly took over and added.

"I didn't realize this a long time ago, and many people didn't realize it. When they appeared, their numbers far exceeded many of our forces."

"How many people are there now?" Chen Yu asked subconsciously.

Hearing this, the old woman raised two fingers.

"two hundred?"

"That's right!"

Hearing this, Chen Yu was very confused, "It's still more than a month away, and it will be a year since the apocalypse broke out. How can they be so capable and gather so many people?"

"And it doesn't look like the weapons are very strong, although there are motorcycle helmets everywhere."

The reason why he couldn't figure it out was because the strongest enemy Chen Yu faced last time, Xu Dali, only had more than 200 men. They had a lot of firearms, explosives, and even grenades. They were quite oppressive at that time.

If Alei and Feng Yi hadn't rushed over with Huo Yao and others by chance, they would have been like a mantis.

In the battle in the valley that day, everyone in Chen Yu didn't get much advantage. This was with the help of zombies in the mountain.

Although the Salvation Gate is also very powerful, it is far away after all. At such a distance, it is not easy to destroy the villa area where Chen Yu is located.

And there is another point, that is, the senior officials of the Salvation Sect know very well that if they want to take revenge, they will need at least four hundred people to do it foolproof.

However, if so many people leave the camp at the same time, it will definitely give other forces an opportunity. It is very likely that their homes will be stolen as soon as they arrive at the front line.

So after thinking about it, the senior management of Salvation Sect chose to temporarily ignore the sacrifices of Luo San and Jiang Hou Team.

Because according to some people's deductions, in just one year, the Salvation Gate will be stronger and have more lethal weapons, such as armed helicopters.

......

The old woman paused, a little sadness appeared on her expression, and she whispered: "The scavengers used to hide very deep. They started with dozens of people and began to attack the smaller camps. All the men were taken away, and the others were taken away. No one moved at all."

"In this case, those people gradually forgot to resist, because although their men were taken away, they got a lot of food and water."

"Even later, if a man was captured, he could be exchanged for food. The children were still young and needed to eat. Mothers had no choice, so many of them chose to do this."

Chen Yu thought for a while and said, "Won't the person who was captured resist?"

Hearing this, the old woman was quiet for a few seconds before replying, "There is a man among the Scavengers who is called a master. His brainwashing ability is very powerful, and many people are convinced of it."

"The master said that when there are fewer and fewer survivors outside, then the people they want to protect can live better."
