After the earth wind, and especially after the earth fire half a month later, it would be almost impossible to find seeds on the original city ruins!
Once the earth fire erupts, all the ruins will turn to ashes!
By then, seeds and the like will almost cease to exist.
But in this life, Wang Luo brought mutated crops to the world years in advance. Not to mention anything else, it was an unimaginable blessing for the survivors of the base!
Several people tasted the mutated cabbage of the doomsday, and a plate of cabbage made them feel full.
"As expected of exclusive food for Awakened ones!"
Yang Shu finished the last piece of cabbage and patted her smooth stomach.
A plate of cabbage was enough to match many dishes.
"Since mutated cabbage can be cultivated, other crops should be fine too!"
"By next year, when we plant staple foods like rice, wheat, and corn, we will have achieved sustainable development!"
"However, you two need to plan the new urban area properly. Where to plant, where to raise livestock, all need to be discussed!"
Hearing this, Zhao Qingxuan frowned, "This means we have to expand the urban area. If so, our manpower will inevitably be dispersed, which will not be good for resisting zombies in the future!"
She was worried about this.
Judging by today's situation, it took nearly a day for so many people to kill zombies in the surrounding area.
If the defense line is expanded, the defense power of each part will inevitably become weaker, and it will be even more dangerous then!
"If there aren't enough people, we can snatch them from other forces. Anyway, there should still be many survivors."
Wang Dao gave them advice.
Anluo City is a metropolis with a population of tens of millions.
After the zombie virus outbreak, two to three million people could still survive. Considering the population that died from zombies, earth winds, and starvation during this period, it is conservatively estimated that there are still about a million people left.
These people might have been difficult to find before, but now they are much easier to find.
As long as there is a building standing somewhere, there will definitely be survivors gathered there.
Because under the earth wind, in Anluo City, only the life aura of a large number of humans can resist the ravages of the earth wind.
Zhao Qingxuan nodded,
This is the only way now!
Moreover, this is saving their lives...
At night, Zhao Qingxuan and Yang Shu arranged for people to patrol near the earthen wall. This is mainly because zombies don't have much intelligence yet. As long as they don't detect the breath of living people, they won't attack actively.
Zhao Qingxuan was diligently practicing her shooting, and occasional groans of "En ah" could be heard from the room.
Early the next morning, Yang Shu and the two started busy with the base's affairs again.
The number of people is growing, and they need more detailed arrangements.
Guarding supplies, tending livestock, guarding the earthen wall, hunting zombies for energy source crystals, and even cleaning the villa area...
There are many things that need to be arranged.
However, Wang Luo no longer needs to worry about these things. At this stage, he has entered a state of self-preservation.
Those zombies are only Black Iron level, while the Awakened ones in the base have all reached Silver level.
Dealing with those zombies is almost no problem.
Even if they encountered a boss among the zombies, they could be killed by Awakened ones whose levels were higher than theirs, even if they were not double S-class.
Except for encountering a large-scale zombie horde, he had nothing else to worry about.
So now Wang Luo occasionally goes to the planting area to check on the mutated vegetables, and then to the breeding area to see the pigs, horses, cattle, and sheep. The thousands of livestock in the breeding area were almost all found by him. Although they are just ordinary livestock, it is enough.
After all, raising mutated beasts is not realistic at the moment.
The breeding area has always been managed by Jiang Lai, who leads dozens of people to guard these livestock.
This is not because of worry about zombies outside, but to prevent people in the villa area from committing petty theft.
This is the doomsday. If there is no one to supervise, someone will definitely do it.
After wandering for a few hours, he sat down with Sun Jianyye and others to play mahjong again.
Life in the doomsday is so boring and dull!
This kind of life continued for several days, until one day, several emaciated, dust-covered Awakened ones arrived in Anluo City.
"Alas, I thought only our Ningcheng County had become a doomsday. I didn't expect Anluo City to be in such a state. It seems that other places, even the whole country and the whole world, may have become a doomsday world!"
The leader sighed.
"We originally came to seek help from Anluo City, but we didn't expect it to be in such a mess!"
"It's over. The tens of thousands of remaining people in our Ningcheng County are probably doomed!"
Their base was besieged by zombies. They broke through with the cover of others, just to seek help from Anluo City, but now that Anluo City is in such a state, seeking help is probably not very realistic.
"What should we do? Go back or...?"
Someone asked regretfully.
A lot of time was wasted on this round trip.
Because the road from Ningcheng County to Anluo City was completely destroyed by the earth wind, they ran all the way.
But the speed was naturally much slower than driving.
"I took a look on the way here just now. There aren't many zombies wandering in the mountains and forests. Let's hurry back and transfer all the survivors and supplies in the city to the mountainous areas!"
"Or move the base to the countryside!"
The leader Zhou Quan said in a low voice.
He was the only S-class Awakened in Ningcheng County and the strongest there. Everyone revolved around him.
Originally, they wanted to seek help from Anluo City, but in this situation, it was obviously not feasible.
Since Anluo City has become like this, other cities must have become like this too. They no longer place their hopes on other cities.
And there are fewer zombies in the mountains and rural areas, and they are relatively safer.
"But transferring to the mountains is not a solution. Even if we use them sparingly, our supplies can only last for half a year at most!"
Someone worried.
The strong wind that swept across the ground a few days ago destroyed all the supplies in Ningcheng County that had not been collected, completely disrupting their plans.
"Yes, and the crops planted in the rural areas all died in the previous black rain. Without a source of supplies, we will starve to death sooner or later!"
"There's no other way. We can only take it one step at a time now!"
After speaking, the few people turned to leave.
They dared not enter Anluo City, as there were too many zombies here, and it would be a one-way trip for them alone!
"Wait, look over there, is that someone riding a horse?"
Someone suddenly shouted, looking into the distance.
There, a person was riding a large black horse, leisurely wandering around, as if searching for something.
