Chapter 655 Four-line linkage, the darkest eve!(1/2)

It is the eleventh day of the fifth month on the end of the calendar, the 131st day since humans arrived in the wasteland, and the third to last day before the great cooling disaster strikes.

After exploring the two mountain peaks in the origin territory, we determined the basic premise for "rescue".

Somo took off his clothes, lay down on the bed again, and began to close his eyes to rest, thinking carefully about the means he still had in hand to break the situation.

Judging from the current situation, it must be unrealistic to save everyone.

First, 30,000 people need too many supplies. It would take 150,000 kilograms of food for just five days to barely get enough.

And that's not counting the subsequent costs of settling these people.

Second, not all of these 30,000 people are normal people with good intentions and want to live peacefully in the apocalypse.

Among them, those who embezzled the hot soup of ordinary refugees like the one yesterday are not worth saving at all.

If these people could be screened out, they would be excluded from the scope of rescue.

Not only can it make advance preparations for bringing people back to the territory, but it can also significantly reduce rescue difficulties and material requirements.

"Is there any way that I can not only get this list of people, but also get a batch of supplies?"

Think about it.

Eliminate them one by one.

After taking out all the methods on paper, after thinking and selecting, just when Sumo had some ideas, the noise outside the window began to get louder.

You know, the location of Sanyuan Hotel is off-center.

There can be noisy noises here, which naturally means that there are definitely many people.

"Huh? It's only seven o'clock."

Sumo stood up curiously, opened the window, and after just one look, he couldn't help but froze in front of the window.

It was early in the morning, just around seven o'clock.

The street below Sanyuan Hotel was actually full of people, and there were refugees carrying bags everywhere.

And in front of the three trading rooms in the Origin Camp, huge queues had already formed, and the sound of chattering was heard all around.

More than 99% of these people are ordinary people living here.

On weekdays, due to the exchange time of the issued Origin Coins, most people save them first and only spend a day to exchange them when needed.

But now, after they had accumulated Origin Coins for less than half a month, it was on the eve of this terrible disaster, and they were stimulated by the uneven distribution of broth yesterday.

These people also began to realize that this piece of iron was useless in their hands.

In a hungry and cold night, only the supplies you get are real!

It's not a run, it's better than a run.

More than 20,000 people gathered in a small village complex, blocking almost every main road.

Under such a prosperous scene, most shops can only temporarily close their businesses to make way for these people.

Even the place where street stalls used to be set up was filled with the feet of passers-by, and there was no place to rest or sit.

Of course, what if the previous material theft was just a dream, or all the lost materials were recovered.

So today's scene will not affect anything, but will unite people's hearts to a certain extent.

But if the supplies are no longer there, there will be so many people waiting to exchange them.

In the end, it seems that there is only one left.

Sanyuan Hotel.

It was not long after 7:30, and there were also people standing outside the door of the room located in the middle of the second floor, including the entire walkway on the second floor.

Unlike the people outside who were queuing up to exchange supplies, these people all looked solemn and unsmiling.

In addition, they were neatly dressed and seemed to respect the people in the middle.

As the momentum went down, some of the casual travelers who were still chatting and chatting on the first floor suddenly shut up. They only dared to glance at it secretly from time to time, wondering in their minds what big event had happened.

In this stagnant atmosphere, another ten minutes passed.

A middle-aged man standing in the center of the crowd walked out with a troubled expression, as if he was risking his life, and gently put his hand on the door.

Boom.

dong dong

It was obviously a knock on the wooden door, but the sound seemed to ring in the hearts of everyone who heard the sound.

Waiting for the reaction inside the door, the time outside the door seemed to become extremely long.

It only made the atmosphere that was still stagnant just now rise to a higher level again, and the air seemed to be stagnant.

But fortunately, this time obviously did not last long.

Two or three seconds later, a voice came from the room to come in, and the tense atmosphere outside suddenly relaxed!

Wow.

The door opened, and the four people standing in the front row glanced to the side, then quickly stepped inside and closed the door again.

"Hey, director, you."

For the first time, after seeing clearly the people inside, Feng Long couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

The imagined scene of Somo sitting blankly at the table, with a tangled look on his face and having difficulty making a choice, did not happen.

Just like any other day.

Standing by the window, although Somo's face was filled with emotion and contemplation, it lacked the wavering feeling of yesterday.

Obviously, after a night of deliberation, Sumo had made his decision.

"I've thought about it, there are some people in this city that we can just sit back and let them fend for themselves."

"But there are some ordinary people who work hard and are diligent, and they should not be sacrificed so fearlessly."

He pointed at the refugees downstairs who were observing the rules and taking out a water bottle from time to time to take a sip to relieve their stomach cramps.

Sumo turned his head and looked serious.

"If these people can be brought back to our territory, they will be of great help to future development."

"As long as they pay a small amount of materials, they can become the cornerstone of our basic construction, allowing the village and territory to develop five times or more than ten times faster."

"And, with the life in the origin territory as a comparison, we only need to successfully rescue these people and bring them back."

"The slight risk is completely worth it!" Sumo said solemnly.

If you want to gain benefits in the chaotic apocalyptic wasteland, some risks must be taken.

The only difference is the amount of risk.

Compared with risking life and death to fight aliens, and fighting with the false gods behind aliens.

I don't dare to bear the risks brought about by this rescue right now.

How can you have the courage to confront a life-or-death crisis in the future?

"really.."

Seeing Su Mo's serious look, Feng Tianmin, Feng Long, Guan Yu'an, and Du Shi all felt certain in their hearts, and their hearts that were in the air suddenly relaxed.

Last night, several people were still determined to leave this place of trouble, putting their own safety first and recruiting refugees secondly.

But when they returned to their room at night and thought about it carefully, they also discovered the problem with their idea.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

In the current situation, hiding outside is indeed a way to avoid the limelight for a while and avoid the most chaotic time.

But standing outside, can we really watch indifferently as a camp of 30,000 people turns into a killing field for Shuras, and then wait until the dust settles to harvest the "spoils of war"?

After asking their hearts, all four of them had answers.

"Director, to be honest, even if you don't say anything today, we will still advise you to stay and try to save these ordinary people as much as possible."

"Me too!"

"Director, the mistakes committed by those beasts really shouldn't be attributed to ordinary people."

"You give your order and we will do it immediately!"

With Soma directly setting the tone, the four of them opened their mouths and spoke directly.

However, right now, just having an attitude is not enough.

Based on their thinking last night, none of them could think of a way to break the situation.

For example: who to save, how to save, how to arrange the remaining people after rescuing, how to deal with other people, etc., we still don’t have a clue.

but.

"Okay, since we have the same opinion, there's no need to waste time thinking about it anymore."

"Feng Long, after the support from our snow mountain base camp arrives, you will immediately bring two teams over to capture the bounty hunter who was spying on us. By the way, including his men, all of them will be killed.
To be continued...
