Time Travel: I am a Warlord in Doomsday America
Chapter 263: Hilltop Village
On a lonely hill, a group of people who had gathered after the disaster were working on a few small fields.
Shandingzhai is a community built with wooden walls. It was a tourist attraction before the disaster. The central building is a mansion left over from the American Civil War.
The current leader of Hilltop is named Gregory, an old white man. In the original series, he has been paying tribute to the Savior Church. He is greedy for power but has a cowardly character. In the end, he died from backstabbing Maggie, and was tried and hanged after being defeated by Maggie.
During the period when Negan ruled the area around Washington, D.C., all the guns and ammunition in the nearby communities were taken away by the Savior. Although the Hilltop has learned that the Savior has lost power, the weapons people openly hold are still the cold weapons and bows and arrows.
Gregory had already thought about the gun, but Paul told him that the Savior Church was defeated by a more powerful community, and the new community might have to maintain the previous order.
Due to safety considerations, Gregory had to let Paul collect guns and weapons privately and bury them outside the mountaintop village.
Gregory watched the residents working on a few small fields and nodded with satisfaction to himself.
As a man, even though his body is old, he still has ambitions in his heart. Maybe he is just unlucky and happened to meet a ruthless man like Negan.
Negan's situation is now hopeless, and Gregory believes that if he seizes the opportunity, he may be able to expand Hilltop into one of the largest communities in the surrounding area with his current small piece of land.
This is pure dreaming. The basic base of the mountaintop village is so small. Unless Gregory has the courage and ability to organize the residents to expand the area of the mountaintop village, this is such a small place that it can only accommodate dozens of people at most.
Gregory was wearing a suit. Yes, in the post-disaster world, this old man was still wearing a suit and acting like a leader.
He walked up to the guard at the gate of the stockade, put his hands behind his back and asked, "Is Paul not back yet?"
"No, you know, he's always gone for days. But he always comes back safely," the guard replied.
Paul, whose full name is Paul Rowe, was nicknamed Jesus by the residents because of his long hair and long beard on his chin.
Of course, the nickname Jesus is not just a joke. Paul himself is very capable. He can always bring back supplies from the outside world and give people hope.
Paul has a great reputation in Hilltop. It can be said that if he wants and the time is right, Paul can replace Gregory at any time.
Therefore, Gregory did not like Paul very much in his heart. He knew that Paul was a potential threat to his power.
After pretending to ask about Paul, Gregory returned to the mansion and sat in the office, not knowing what to do.
Because he doesn't know what to do, he does nothing and wastes the day. This is Gregory's daily routine.
What if he just dreamed up a plan and then gathered everyone's wisdom to try to implement it?
The disaster happened more than a year ago. After Gregory built the wall of the mountaintop village, he actually lost his enterprising spirit. However, he kept hypnotizing himself that he was still a man who could do great things.
Lying in his office chair, Gregory prepared to drink a small glass of whiskey, smoke a cigarette, and then take a nice nap.
But reality often does not go as he wishes. Just when Gregory was about to indulge himself a little, the sound of guards ringing alarm bells suddenly rang out from the hilltop village.
Ding ding ding ding!!!
Gregory suddenly jumped up from his chair and rushed out of the mansion to check the situation.
When he walked to the gate of the mansion, he found that the guards were shooting arrows at the wall, and people were shouting "enemy attack" and organizing defense.
On the downhill drive dozens of meters away from the mountaintop village, a group of skinny monsters nearly three meters tall were running towards them. The sentries at the mountaintop village had never seen zombies, but their strange bodies could only classify them as monsters.
A guard shot an arrow at the zombies' feet and shouted a warning to them, but what came in return was a collective charge by the zombies.
Communication? What's there to communicate with food? A group of zombies spread their huge paws and ran wildly on the gravel-covered land, facing several flying feather arrows, and rushed straight to the top of the mountain from the mountainside!
"Take them back!! Mary will give you the most delicious barbecue!!"
Gray did not go to the mountaintop village in person, but instead sent his zombie subordinates with highly retained intelligence to organize the hunt.
The situation of the mountaintop village had long been discovered by the zombies in charge of reconnaissance. This is a community without hot weapons, and the terminal has kept it as a retention target for a long time.
Gregory didn't know what was going on. While angrily questioning the guard, he climbed over the wall to check the situation outside.
In his opinion, there was no gunfire outside the wall, and there was no need for the guards to ring the alarm four times in a row, causing the community to become as chaotic as it is now.
"What are you doing! Is anyone coming? Or are they zombies?! How can you be so unstable!!" Gregory climbed up the sentry post and shouted at the guards.
"Gray! Outside! There are a group of monsters outside!" The guard looked outside the wall in horror and said in shock.
Gregory didn't believe it. What monster could be scarier than a zombie? He looked outside the wall and was immediately trembling with fear.
A group of creatures that are much taller than ordinary people are rushing towards the mountaintop village. They are wearing tattered clothes, and their exposed skin is covered with ugly psoriasis that is bluish-gray in color.
"Shoot, shoot! Men, come and fight!" Gray turned around and immediately shouted towards the village.
Although the fighters in the mountaintop village had already started moving as quickly as possible, the people who usually lacked training were unable to find their positions at this time, and could not even climb up the limited number of sentry posts to shoot at the "enemies" outside.
Om-! !
There was a roar coming from the sky, but neither side paid attention to the movement in the sky. Only the little leader of the zombies who led the zombies to fight looked up at the sky.
A black bird-shaped shadow was hovering in the air, which slightly diverted the attention of the zombie leader.
It looks like an airplane.
The zombie leader didn't care too much. Hunting the humans in front of him was obviously more important. Such a small and backward wooden village, and they were still using bows and arrows. Could this group of people call for military fighters to help?
When this thought came to its mind, it couldn't help but smile, and the corners of its ugly, skinny face widened.
The next second, the body of the zombie leader was torn apart by a large amount of high-temperature metal, and a strange sound suddenly came from the distant sky!
Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing! ! ! !
Countless thick metal light rains plowed towards the ground from the distant sky. Machine gun shells that exceeded the speed of sound instantly swept the charging group of zombies out of an uninhabited area!
