At this time, Hope Village.
The sky was getting dark, and the teams that went out to collect and hunt today came back one after another. Everyone's face was beaming with joy. Looking at the light coming from the territory from a distance, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up slightly.
Although this place is simple and simple, it has become their "home" unknowingly, giving them a new place to belong.
"We're back! How was the harvest?" Fenglezhi, a member of the escort team guarding the door, asked the returning team with a smile.
"Today's harvest is not bad, I got a lot of things." Zhong Yongnian, the leader of the team, responded with a smile. Of course, he did not say the specifics.
Fenglezhi didn't intend to ask for anyone's privacy, and continued: "Congratulations! But the most important thing is that you all came back safely!"
"Yes! Safety is the most important thing! But it is also thanks to the territory. The weapons sold by the territory have high damage and are very convenient for us to use." Zhong Yongnian said, with a look that could not hide his satisfaction with the territory.
"It will get better and better." Fenglezhi said firmly.
They were guarding the territory and could only wander around the territory. He and Quan Ziqiang took a brief stroll around the area and found nothing. The surrounding area was cleared by people. It was obvious that everyone was working hard to build their "new home" .
"Yes, although it is difficult outside, having a haven of refuge can give people the courage to cope. The most fearful thing is that there is no hope at all." Zhong Yongnian sighed.
The two chatted for a few words, smiled at each other, and then led the team into the territory.
As soon as they stepped in, some of them were greeted by family members, their steps brisk.
And as more and more people returned to the territory, the entire territory suddenly became lively.
The fire was burning in advance, and everyone started cooking food around the fire. The smell of various foods spread in the territory.
Sometimes cooking food is not just to fill their stomachs, but more of a ritual for them.
Just like now, many people gather together to chat and pass the time.
"This chicken soup is so flavorful! Who gets the chicken!"
"I was lucky today. I met a magic chicken and dropped 3 pieces of chicken. That magic chicken is really hard to beat. It is two or three times bigger than the chicken before the apocalypse. It hurts people when it pecks people, and the damage is high. It can also fly. Yeah! This chicken is hard to come by anyway."
"Chicken! I suddenly want fried chicken!"
"I want to eat, too!"
“It’s only the second day of Doomsday Game, but I feel like it’s been a long, long time.”
"Who doesn't want to eat fried chicken? Let's not think too good about it. We just finished the life of eating raw hair and drinking blood and want to triple jump. It's both oil and starch. Where can I find it?"
"Forget about oil and starch, let's solve the seasoning problem first! For example, salt! At least it has some flavor!"
"When you were hungry yesterday, you said it would be nice if you had something to eat."
"Haha! The pursuits are different in different periods!"
"Yes, you have to pursue something, otherwise how can you live your life, so will you give me the other two portions of chicken?"
"Come on! Is there anything you can exchange with me?"
"While there are many people now, we can just exchange with each other, and sell the ones we don't need to the territory."
"..."
As they talked, everyone began to trade with each other.
Zhou Bai and her mother Ding Qiurou were also in the crowd. They originally just watched and waited for Zhou Zhengping to come back, but as they watched, Ding Qiurou couldn't help but join them.
"You actually have fruit, what do you want to exchange for it?"
"Exchange the mushrooms for rice, that's okay, I'll replace it."
"Wild vegetables, I want them!"
"..."
All of a sudden, Ding Qiurou's voice kept ringing.
Zhou Bai looked at it and couldn't help but smile.
Things are rare and expensive. Killing Warcraft drops various kinds of meat. Everyone is not short of meat. On the contrary, some wild vegetables, mushrooms and fruits are more expensive, but compared to the materials dropped by killing Warcraft, this is The higher price is negligible, so it is relatively rare in the territory. No wonder her mother is so disregarded for her image.
But it was only the second day, and Zhou Bai had reason to believe that as more and more people came to the territory, the territory became stronger and stronger, and the types of supplies in the territory would become more and more abundant.
"Someone is back!" At the door, Fenglezhi saw a longing figure not far from the territory and said immediately, which was also a reminder to some people in the territory who were waiting for their families.
Zhou Bai's attention was suddenly attracted, and after taking a look at the lord's map, he felt confident.
"It should be my dad and the others." With that said, Zhou Bai hurried to the gate of the territory.
After hearing this, Ding Qiurou stopped changing her things and followed Zhou Bai's footsteps, followed by other people whose family members had not returned.
Not long after walking, I heard Zhou Bai shouting.
"Everyone, come and help us! There are wounded."
Someone at the scene listened and quickly followed.
Was the escort injured? The people in the escort team have good weapons and equipment, and their level is higher than most people. There are more people. If they are injured, does it mean that there are more powerful monsters outside?
Many people have divergent thinking and a little bit of panic in their hearts.
After getting closer, I realized that it wasn't just the escorts who had returned, but dozens of survivors, large and small.
This group of survivors was much more miserable than before. Most of them had wounds on their bodies, and some wounds were still bleeding. The simple bandaged animal skins were soaked through, and their faces were all pale and blue. They had obviously suffered a big disaster. disaster.
Many people sighed deeply in their hearts, and then took the initiative to speak.
"Advanced territory!"
"We just happened to cook something, so we can eat some first."
"Is anyone here a doctor? Or someone who has learned first aid knowledge? I'll help bandage it later!"
"..."
A group of people were traveling all the way, worried, frightened, and physically and mentally exhausted.
After seeing the territory, they were very happy and thought they could finally have a good rest.
As a result, I encountered such a heart-warming scene at the gate of the territory. My heart that had been pretending to be strong suddenly broke down. My eyes instantly turned red and my voice became choked. "Thank you, thank you..."
Afterwards, everyone helped one by one and led them towards the territory.
When they entered the territory, when asked by the territory, everyone paid the money and became a resident without hesitation.
Zhou Bai made some predictions among the crowd and put a lot of steamed buns in the restaurant and built a lot of residential buildings at the same time.
The newcomers couldn't help but take a few more glances at the buildings that suddenly appeared.
"It should be because the territory has detected new residents, so it has built new houses. You can buy houses for 6 gold coins per room, or rent them for 100 copper coins per day. Living in the house will give you a stronger sense of security, and it will not Will be disturbed.”
"There are also lord's mansions, restaurants, blacksmith shops, and tailor shops in the territory. You have to go to the lord's belly to get an identity token before you can officially become a resident of Hope Village. Then you can use your ID card to spend money in shops and restaurants, but currently there are only Steamed buns, you can buy weapons at the blacksmith shop, and you can buy clothes at the tailor shop. Although it is a bit shabby compared to before the doomsday, it is much better than in the wilderness. In the future, it should be able to be upgraded as there are more people... Sorry, say Okay, you guys have something to eat first, and we’ll learn more about the territory later.”
"..."
Then, the new group of people were led by the previous group of people to settle down next to the fire.
Someone went to buy steamed buns and distributed them one by one.
Eating steamed buns, drinking cooked soup, and feeling the warmth from the fire, the new survivors all felt like they were in a different world.
But...it's so good!
