Chapter 292
Translator: 549690339
The commoners looked at the leaving martial artist Army, their faces ashen.
Without the protection of Warriors, tonight would be the day of their death.
The despairing crowd suddenly reacted.
“Food, there must be food left in the warehouse.”
After a night of exhaustion, the eyes of the exhausted commoners suddenly lit up. Like hungry Tigers pouncing on their prey, they held their breath and quickly rushed to the warehouse of the stronghold.
“That’s right, even if I’m going to die, I’ll be a ghost that dies full.”
the food is mine. I must eat my fill today.
second uncle, I can’t run anymore. Please help me get some food.
......
Li xiaonian helplessly followed the crowd who had lost control. The construction of a base required the efforts of ordinary people. In despair, one could see a person’s nature the best. He needed to observe, make records, and select some outstanding people to serve as management.
A moment later, the civilians swarmed into the Granary at the back of the base.
The door of the Granary was not closed, but it was empty. There were only a few sweet potatoes and corn scattered on the ground.
This amount was not the ‘several days’ ration that general Hu had said. It was evenly distributed, at most one day, and it was the kind that would not be full.
Food was scarce, and everyone was fighting for it.
“Mine, these are all mine.” A man who could be considered strong rushed out of the warehouse with a dozen catties of sweet potatoes in his arms, trying to hide.
Seeing this, the people who didn’t get the food immediately became angry. damn it, can you eat so much by yourself? since you’re going to die tonight, share some with me.
“Impossible.”
Bada!
A few men waved their fists at the man who was snatching a large amount of food.
Some people started to fight for it, but the rest of the people were also unwilling to give up and joined in the fight. The only fortunate thing was that the civilians could not endure their hunger and did not have much strength in their fists. Otherwise, a few people would have died in such a scene.
Looking at the chaotic scene, li xiaonian furrowed his brows. However, he still endured it and didn’t interfere, allowing the situation to develop.
“Stop! All of you, stop!”
A yellow-faced emaciated man, holding a long blade made of wooden sticks, stared at the crowd. “I’ll kill whoever dares to continue fighting.”
“It’s you, goudan,” The burly man reached out with a face full of disdain. goudan, you’re only a class one warrior. Mind your own business. If we really fight, you might not be my match.
“What if we’re included?”
A man and a woman appeared. They were very young, probably only fifteen or sixteen years old. Their bodies were so weak that they could be blown away by the wind.
The three remaining martial artists were all present.
The brawny man’s brows furrowed, and his gaze became serious.
He wasn’t afraid to fight against goudan alone, but he would definitely die if he fought against three class one martial artists at the same time.
He could lose but not his face.
since you’re martial artists, why didn’t you leave with the team? ” the burly man said ruthlessly. instead, you stayed to fight with us. Do you think that you’re invincible when the three of you join forces? ”
Goudan looked at the crowd and said calmly, ” “Everyone, our territory is still here. As long as everyone is United, we might still be able to survive. Right now, we should repair the damaged city walls as soon as possible, not fight for food here.”
At this moment ...
The other young man beside goudan said firmly, ” “You’re right, brother goudan. We must work together. From now on, we’ll distribute the food. I’m sure everyone knows about brother goudan’s character. He’s absolutely fair and just. He won’t starve anyone to death, and he won’t let anyone die on purpose.”
With that, the young man brandished his weapon and threatened, ” “Whoever doesn’t listen will become the enemy of the three of us. Don’t blame us for being ruthless.”
“That’s right.” The level one female warrior said.
Unfortunately, the female martial artist’s voice was crisp and childish. The serious atmosphere was instantly destroyed.
“Hahaha ...”
Everyone couldn’t help but laugh.
The burly man laughed. goudan, iron boy, and ER Niu, you’ve all seen it. It’s not that we don’t believe you, but in the current situation, the skinny ghost leader still can’t resist. Although you three little kids have talent, it’s a pity that you were born in the wrong era. If you want to play, play by yourself. This Lord won’t accompany you.”
After a pause, the burly man flashed a knife and said coldly, ” if you want to snatch the food in my hands, you’ll have to ask my knife first. Either way, you’ll die. If you don’t let me eat my fill, I’ll just drag one of you down with me.
“You can try!”
Goudan’s friendly face was replaced by a murderous aura.
The two sides refused to give in to each other. The atmosphere was cold and they were ready to fight at any time.
“The farce ends here.”
Li xiaonian slowly stood up.
“And who are you?”
Everyone was curious. Even if they didn’t know the names of the people in this stronghold, they were familiar with their faces. None of them had seen li xiaonian’s face before.
it doesn’t matter who I am. What’s important is that from today onwards, I’m the stronghold leader.
As he spoke, li xiaonian slowly walked toward the burly man.
Double the gravity.
The gravitational field was released, and within a radius of dozens of meters, everyone’s body sank, and the civilians who couldn’t withstand it directly knelt on the ground.
The burly man’s physical fitness was not bad, and he was still standing firmly in the same place, but his face was pale.
To everyone’s shock, li xiaonian casually removed half a sack of food from the burly man’s shoulder and handed it to goudan. He said calmly, ” “I’ll leave the matter of gathering the food to you. Immediately prepare a big pot and cook enough food for everyone to eat. After eating, take a rest and immediately arrange for people to repair the city walls. Whoever dares to resist or disobey will be dealt with in military uniform, death!”
He retracted the gravitational field.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and looked at li xiaonian in confusion.
A middle-aged man couldn’t help but say, ” “May I ask who you are? Why don’t you leave?”
The strong were respected. This unfamiliar man had strange strength and was so young, but he didn’t leave with the group. Instead, he stayed to die. This was abnormal.
Li xiaonian said indifferently, ” you guys cook something to eat first. Gather at the Plaza. I’ll explain everything to you later.
“Yes, leader.”
Goudan was the first to react, and gave the highest bow.
To him, no matter who the leader was, as long as it was for the sake of the stronghold, he would be the first to agree and obey.
“Go on.”
Li xiaonian waved his hand.
Whoosh!
Li xiaonian teleported and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
His action left everyone dumbfounded.
so powerful. With such a powerful warrior here, maybe we still have a chance to survive.
uh ... He’s strong, but he’s definitely not as strong as the skinny ghost leader. The skinny ghost leader left with his tail between his legs, so he won’t be of much use even if he stays.
“Forget it, forget it. Since he wants to be the leader, we’ll just obey.”
Immediately.
Under goudan, iron boy, and ER Niu’s instructions, everyone methodically got a large pot and started cooking sweet potato porridge.
Food was limited, and it was already good enough to have enough sweet potato porridge to eat.
......
On the other hand, li xiaonian didn’t really leave. Instead, he entered the military factory in the stronghold.
Although it was called a factory, it was actually just a small workshop.
Inside the workshop, there was a furnace and a hydraulic press. The hydraulic press was simple and crude. It was just a waterwheel with a rolling axis to drive the iron hammer up and down.
“It’s alright.”
Li xiaonian nodded and took out a powerful robot from his Purple Star Ring.
Di ~~
The robot’s eyes opened and it said,””Gray Bear greets master.”
The robot grizzly bear was a combat robot that Xiaoya had created for him. Its body was made of the fragments of the spaceship’s hull, and its strength had reached the level of a Sage-to-be, which was not much different from li xiaonian’s own strength.
Without the Thunder rod, li xiaonian’s strength was greatly reduced.
Li xiaonian pointed at the factory beside him. grizzly bear, can you build a bullet production line with these materials? ”
Ordinary bullets were enough to cause damage to low-level biochemical beasts. As long as there was an endless supply of bullets, civilians could also exert their due combat power.
The Grizzly Bear’s eyes shot out infrared rays and scanned the surrounding materials.”Master, we don’t have enough materials,”
“I see.”
Li xiaonian pondered for a moment and took out all the equipment and materials from the crape myrtle Star Ring.”What if I add these?”
master, with these materials, we can create a bullet production line, but the amount of gunpowder is limited, and the number of bullets produced will not be too much.
“En, you do it first. I’ll think of another way to get the rest of the materials.”
Whoosh ~
The robot grizzly bear quickly cleaned up the surrounding area. Then, it spewed flames from its palms to melt the existing iron blocks and entered work mode.
Throughout the entire process, the gray Grizzly Bear’s movements were Swift, without any extra movements.
“How long will it take to complete it?” li xiaonian asked.
“Master, it will take three hours,” the grizzly bear machine replied.
alright, you go ahead. The bullet production line is complete. If there are any extra materials, you can make a pistol.
“Yes, master,”
by the way, think of a way to build a water power station. As for the materials, you can look for them nearby. If you really can’t find them, let me know.
......
Li xiaonian explained everything he needed to know and continued to patrol the entire stronghold.
After a round of patrol, li xiaonian finally understood the situation in Leo town.
To put it simply, there was nothing but trash in the entire stronghold. The only valuable things were the piles of ores at the side and the rice fields at the back of the stronghold.
The seedlings in the fields were only 20 centimeters tall. There were still a few months before they would mature.
Standing at the highest point of the stronghold, li xiaonian looked down at the entire stronghold and fell into deep thought.”There’s a serious food shortage. The food in the crape myrtle Star Ring can only last a month at most. However, this food can be used to exchange for better things. It’s a bit of a waste to just spend it on civilians.”
forget it. In the afternoon, the gray Bear will go out to search for food and clean up the surrounding biochemical beasts. It’s a powerful robot with its own scanning function, so its efficiency should be very high.
“The only problem now is that rank 5 biochemical beast. It’s so powerful. If it continues to attack the stronghold tonight, even if the gray Bear and I join forces, we won’t be able to resist it. ”
Li xiaonian couldn’t help but have a headache when he thought about the terror of a level-five biochemical beast.
Since there were five levels, there were naturally six, seven, or even higher levels.
“How exactly do we deal with the powerful biochemical beast?” Li xiaonian had a pained expression on his face.
If the shadow was still around, there would be no need to worry with its powerful firepower.
......
At the square.
Under the command of goudan and the other two, more than two thousand people lined up to receive the sweet potato congee.
Gulp ~
Gulp ~
One by one, they gobbled up the food.
After finishing a bowl of sweet potato porridge, the dirty wooden bowl was licked clean.
phew ... This feels so good. I haven’t had such a good meal in a long time. Even If I Die Tonight, I’ll accept my fate.
“It’s delicious. How good would it be if I could have this much sweet potato congee every day?”
hey, how strong do you think the stranger leader is? for him to stay here for no reason, is he confident that he can defend the stronghold? ”
“I don’t know ... I’m going to sleep for a while. Don’t disturb me.”
After a tiring night, they had eaten and drunk their fill. They laid on the ground and fell asleep. More than two thousand people were lying on the ground, snoring in all sorts of strange and peculiar ways.
Goudan looked at the exhausted people and clenched his fists. Then, he looked at the broken city wall and turned to tiedan and ER Niu.”Let’s go and repair the city walls. We’ll do as much as we can,”
Er Niu’s face was bitter,”brother goudan, we didn’t get any rest last night. I want to rest for a while.” It’s broad daylight right now, so the biochemical beast won’t appear. We still have time.”
“Brother goudan, let’s take a rest,” tie dan nodded.
alright. Gou dan looked at the two of them and nodded. you guys must be tired. Take a rest.
With that, goudan walked alone to the hole in the city wall and silently cleared the bricks on the ground.
......
Li xiaonian appeared.
Almost all the people in the square were dead asleep.
Li xiaonian frowned. After thinking for a while, he took out ten bottles of energy drinks and poured them into the big iron pot.
“All of you, get up!”
Li xiaonian operated his tyrant body technique and shouted.
His voice was like muffled Thunder, rumbling and shaking.
Many people shuddered.
In a daze, a man said in fear, ” “Biochemical beast, biochemical beast is attacking.”
Upon hearing the word ‘biochemical beast’, everyone’s sleepiness was gone. They jumped up on the spot and realized that there was no biochemical beast, but an unfamiliar young man.
At this moment ...
Goudan put down his work and rushed over. He said respectfully, ” “Greetings, leader.”
Everyone came to a realization.
He?
He trusted the leader? “He’s so young. In my opinion, he’s probably only 20 years old. There’s no hope for such a little brat to lead us.
what are you still standing there for? hurry up and greet the leader. Goudan shouted angrily at the crowd.
Under goudan’s threat, the crowd bowed and said.
“Greetings, leader.”
“Greetings, leader.”
......
Li xiaonian nodded. goudan, distribute the water in the sweet potato congee to everyone. Just take a big mouthful.
With energy drinks added to the congee, one mouthful was enough to restore the vitality of these primitive Aboriginals.
Goudan didn’t know li xiaonian’s intention, but he still did as he was told.
The new congee was distributed.
Gulp ~
The commoner with dark eye circles took a sip of the porridge and his eyes widened.
how ... How is this possible? I only took a sip and I felt full of energy. I’m not sleepy anymore. The man with the black scar was shocked.
Upon hearing this exclamation, everyone was curious.
it can’t be that exaggerated. Could it be an immortal pill?”
