I'm so tired of traveling all the time
Chapter 24 Mysterious Spread
Americans are really relaxed in the bar. It seems like this place is really far away from disaster. People are more concerned about which team can win the softball championship this season!
Even Jason and Hader kept looking at the live broadcast on the TV hanging above the bar. Wen Liang didn't understand what was so good about it.
"People here don't seem to care about the monsters that appeared in New York?" Wen Liang asked curiously, drawing everyone's attention away from the TV.
Jason reluctantly withdrew his thoughts, raised his beer and took a sip, saying, "Maybe they don't even know there are monsters. I haven't even heard anyone here mention the word monster."
"It's very likely that our DV was confiscated!" Harder leaned forward and whispered, "Maybe the government issued a gag order!"
Wen Liang thought about it carefully. On the way out, people were busy running away, and it seemed that no one mentioned the word "monster". Even those who were evacuated from the New York city area only heard people talking about the explosion.
"It must be under control, otherwise it wouldn't be so quiet." Everyone believed this was the reason.
"So what should we do next?" Lily asked. "We are like refugees now. All my belongings are in my house in Manhattan. I didn't bring anything with me!"
Karen subconsciously touched her pockets after hearing this. Because of Wen Liang's reminder, she took the things that were particularly important to her, such as her bank card. She had to discard other larger items, after all, she had little time to prepare.
Compared to others who were penniless, Karen was already very content.
"Don't worry too much about the money. I still have a lot here, about five thousand dollars, enough for us to use for a while." Wen Liang said as he patted his pocket.
"I..." Karen was about to speak when Wen Liang interrupted her by patting her shoulder.
Wen Liang said, "No one can guarantee that this town is safe now. After all, we are just outside New York. We can't say whether we should continue to go inland or stay in the town. We can't say whether we will have a chance to return to New York."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent and began to think carefully.
"There is one more thing," Wen Liang continued, "Should we continue to act together, or should we separate... Lily, don't get excited yet, let me finish. I know that everyone's parents are not in New York, which is a blessing. Everyone can actually go back to their parents' place and stay for a while!"
"Then what are you going to do? Are you going back to the Asian giant?" Karen asked quickly.
"Don't worry, we don't have any plans in this regard for the time being." Wen Liang replied.
"Yeah!" Karen said satisfied. "Then I'll stay with you. If you want, we can go to my brother's place together, or we can find another place. Anyway, I won't leave!"
Wen Liang was really touched after hearing this. He kissed Karen on the forehead and said to everyone, "Don't worry about anything. We are friends. We have escaped from Manhattan alive, so we are friends for life and death. No matter what choice we make, we are still the best of partners. Even after everyone settles down, the others can go find each other, as well as Robert and Beth."
Jason thought for a long time, then said, "Although I don't want to admit it, I agree with Will's suggestion. Maybe we should really separate first. This is not to escape, but for better survival.
No one knows if this kind of monster will only appear in New York or somewhere else. We can go back to our hometown, settle down, and build a small safe house. No matter who is in danger later, we will not be left with nowhere to go! "
"Yes, I can come to your place!" Had felt comfortable and smiled happily.
After a vote, everyone agreed to this arrangement.
"That's it. Come back to the hotel tonight and ask me for travel expenses. I need to go shopping tomorrow. Do you want to join us this time?" Wen Liang said with a smile.
"Of course, this is our last unified action before we part!" Jason clinked glasses with Wen Liang.
"I like shopping. Let's go together tomorrow!" said Lily.
"I want potato chips, Coke, and a hot dog... Why are you looking at me like that? It will be boring on the road without food!" Had shrugged and said innocently.
....................................
It was almost dawn when we got back to the hotel. I went back to the room and did some adult activities that were beneficial to our physical and mental health with Karen who had been clinging to me. After that, I took a shower and looked at the watch. It was already past one in the morning.
If Karen hadn’t been unable to bear it any longer, it might have taken even longer!
"Open the blind box!"
[Jason's Primary Fighting (Additional: Strength attribute +1)]
"Ok?"
Wen Liang was shocked when he saw what he had drawn. There were skills that could add attribute points?
Use it immediately, and the property panel will change accordingly.

"Maybe I should look for people with special skills or special talents, and get in touch with them more. Who knows, maybe I can get more good stuff?!"
Then Wen Liang shook his head. When you come to a different world, you must follow the familiar plot. This will not only save your life, but also relatively ensure the quality of the blind box.
After all, people who can become the protagonists in the movie world basically have special talents in certain areas!
After a good night's sleep, Wen Liang got up early. At six o'clock in the small town, the sky was already bright and there were already pedestrians on the road.
The air in the small town is better than that in the city, or maybe it's just a psychological effect. Wen Liang ran around Xiong Anzhen, while exercising his hands and feet, and he felt a lot more flexible.
After running a lap, Jason and Lily got up and walked out of the hotel to take a walk outside.
At this time, Wen Liang also stopped, walked over to the two of them and greeted them, "Good morning!"
"morning!"
"Morning~"
Wen Liang wiped his sweat with a towel. The weather in May had gradually become hotter. Especially after the activities, he was sweating a lot. He chatted casually, "What are you talking about?"
Jason started, "We're talking about things left in New York, including rental houses and everything. We guess the government will compensate for it?"
"It's not about whether it will happen or not. I think the government should give some compensation. After all, we pay taxes in our daily lives, part of which is to ensure that we have a certain amount of funds to tide us over difficult times when we encounter force majeure!" Lily spoke clearly and even thought about how to apply for relief funds from the government.
"Force majeure, I like this word." Jason laughed, "But I don't like things that are force majeure."
"This is indeed force majeure. It's not just us, the government is probably the same." Wen Liang said, "I never expect the capitalist government to be kind. I just hope it can provide me with a safer living environment... That's right, survival!"
"Wow, it sounds like it's not easy to survive," Jason said. "I don't like the current old man either, but this town should be relatively safe. I looked at the map last night. There is a US military base on the other side of the mountain and lake not far from the town. If anything happens here, they will definitely provide quick support."
"Military base?" Wen Liang really didn't expect that there was a military base nearby.
At this time, Karen also walked out of the hotel to greet everyone, "Good morning, everyone. You woke up so early. I am so tired!"
Soon, Had also got up, and everyone got together and had a simple breakfast in the hotel.
They sat together, drank tea and chatted, saying goodbye to the upcoming separation. During this time, Wen Liang also gave each of them 500 US dollars for travel expenses, and agreed to contact each other after things settled down.
Around 8 am, Jason, Lily and Hader took the car of the townsman Serena to the nearest city in the west. Serena didn't go to the hospital for a prenatal checkup yesterday, so she came back to pick up some friends and strange children who were passing by, so she had to go to a different city to get to the hospital this time.
And in view of the recent insecurity, several young and middle-aged people also followed.
When the three of them were leaving by car, fog had begun to rise in the town. Wen Liang couldn't help but loudly remind them to be careful on the road.
After the pickup truck disappeared in the light mist, Wen Liang and Karen returned to the hotel.
"This weather is so strange," Karen muttered, "It's foggy at this time of year."
Wen Liang was suddenly startled when he heard this!
