After those evolved went back, their mentalities changed. Some of them didn’t go to rest like the others did and did many other things.
Those things were bad without exception.
Some went back and killed people. The reason was that those people stole their food when they were still a normal person. Those people even hurt their families. Now that they evolved, they wanted to take revenge.
Some went to steal and some even had fun with girls.
Apart from that was the fact that they didn’t want to take the risk after they evolved. They wanted to remain safe in the base. They forgot about all the promises that they made yesterday.
Out of the 13 new evolved, only 7 came. Close to half of them weren’t there.
Jia Ming went to find them but there was only one outcome. They didn’t want to come! Their attitude was really bad and they even threatened him. They told him to scram if not they would teach him a lesson.
Jia Ming didn’t deal with such things before and he was used to listening to Ye Zhongming’s instructions so he returned.
“You don’t know how to deal with it?”
Ye Zhongming was a little unhappy.
“I told you that you are in charge of this base. You bothered about how to build the base but you didn’t think about what to do if people don’t listen?”
“I…” He opened his mouth. He really didn’t know how to deal with such a thing.
“You must remember. There are only three ways to stop problems in this world.” Ye Zhongming raised his voice a little so that people around could hear it.
“Law, interests, strength.”
“To be a little more obvious, reason, money and force.” Ye Zhongming looked at Jia Ming.
“There is no law and reason in the apocalypse so the only thing people care about is money and force.”
“We used interests yesterday. We used potions to get them to work hard and we obtained their promise but now they have destroyed their promises. Thus there is only one way to solve this.”
Ye Zhongming pointed at the gun that he gave Jia Ming, “Use this.”
“You are the future owner of this place so you must let the people here know that they will die if they go against you!”
“Don’t think that it is cruel. This is the best way to solve this problem. Now, Li Qiang, Little Tiger, Xia Lei and you will go find these people. Tell them that they either come here to hunt with us or they die!”
The people around were silent. They were able to hear a thick bloody scent from the words of this young man.
“Remember, if they dare to fight back, you have to kill them right away or you will be the one that dies.”
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Ye Zhongming rested on a building and waited for the others to return. In the middle of the empty land were the thousand chosen while survivors who came to enjoy the atmosphere were all around. They were all waiting for Jia Ming and the others to return.
A gunshot spread from the north. Everyone knew that something occurred there.
A few of them were back after half an hour. Jia Ming’s hand was shivering and his face had a few drops of blood but his aura had changed.
Ye Zhongming knew what that was. That was a transformation from the apocalypse. He just brought that process forward.
Four people followed behind them. One of their faces was swollen but he didn’t show any unhappiness at all.
That was because he saw someone unhappy having his head exploded.
“Don’t think that this is over. Don’t think that you guys coming here can make up for your mistakes. If you don’t perform well today and please me then I can take back what I gave you.”
Ye Zhongming said coldly to the four of them. He waved and the group set off.
Ye Zhongming walked out of the east region exit yesterday to get to the feed factory. The evolved were the first to head out and they cleared the mutated life forms around. They cleared enough space for the thousand to get out from the pipes. Many people brought what Ye Zhongming requested.
Wood, nails, iron rods, daggers, meat, axe, shovels… Even useless household electrical appliances.
This was the first time out of the base for many and they were really nervous. The entire party was totally silent and they proceeded in one direction.
After an hour, the party came to an incomplete region. Ye Zhongming looked around and decided to place the ambush spot here.
The spot was chosen so the evolved started to clear the dangers around. Moreover, there were sentries all around. Da Ming, Little Tiger etc led people to collect things that were useful for battle like sandbags, iron rods, metal pieces, abandoned cars etc. Xia Lei, Mo Ye etc led people to take the map that Ye Zhongming made to complete layers of obstacles.
Liang Chuyin and Park Xiuying helped Le Dayuan to learn how to set out traps all around which they learned from Ye Zhongming.
The traps weren’t complicated, they were like holes and tripping ropes. The complicated ones made use of simple physics or balance theories to set up traps.
Ye Zhongming demonstrated for them and they basically understood. Le Dayuan was a technical person so these were too simple for him. His few helpers and he became the core of the team in charge.
Ye Zhongming led most of them to dig holes and moats in the area. They were dug strategically. The people who were doing it didn’t understand so Ye Zhongming didn’t explain to them.
These were skills that he learned from his last life. Many people followed the speed and habits of the zombies to develop this ratio that could slow them down. Far into the future, these moats would become extremely complicated that it was even useful for level three zombies.
Although humans evolved slower than mutated lifeforms, but in terms of intelligence, we were far ahead. Moreover, as time went on, the gap between humans and nonhumans slowed down.
It was noon when all places followed what Ye Zhongming had planned out. Ye Zhongming ordered them to rest and have a full meal before giving them their missions.
Starting from the moat to the sides of the obstacles in the district and then to the high ground, everyone was given a role. The steps that they had to take were also explained clearly.
After this, Ye Zhongming and his team left the place and went near the base to attract the hoard.
Seeing Ye Zhongming disappear, the survivors holding all sorts of simple weapons knew that the battle was about to begin.
