Chapter 447: Simply Cruel
Stimulated by these chicken blood, there are really countless young people living in tents or hive cities, relying on earthworm meat and monster offal to make ends meet, without jobs, and with no way out.
However, going out to hunt and colonize the city requires approval.
Ordinary people who have not yet awakened supernatural powers have extremely high death rates in the wilderness.
It's easy to be directly bitten to death by a monster, but if you are bitten by a monster and you are bruised all over your body or even paralyzed, who will pay for the medical expenses?
Also, you need to pay taxes to hunt monsters, and you need to pay attention to planning when opening up the wilderness, and you must cooperate with the main attack direction of the relevant departments. You can't open up wasteland indiscriminately. valuable resources.
Most of the frontier teams composed of ordinary people are not up to standard in combat effectiveness and equipment, so it is naturally impossible to pass the approval of the relevant departments.
But a piece of paper can't stop young people's ambition to make contributions and reach the pinnacle of life.
Although the Survival Committee repeatedly emphasized the dangers of wilderness colonization, in the past year, countless undocumented pioneers sneaked out of Dragon City, went deep into the wilderness, and established strongholds one after another.
One of the pioneers was very lucky. They found a random place to set up camp in a mountain col. They didn't encounter high-level super beasts for three whole months. They gritted their teeth and repelled several attacks by ordinary monsters with hot weapons and basic martial arts. .
However, the expansion of Dragon City is faster than everyone imagined. Several super companies have set their sights on this strategically important mountain depression one after another. The prospecting team of Huanyu Group also discovered a spar vein near the mountain depression. Now, The col, which no one cared about before, suddenly became very popular and worth thousands of dollars.
It stands to reason that these pioneers have not been approved, nor can they produce any professional licenses, and their ownership of the land cannot be recognized.
But considering realistic factors—these pioneers did survive for three months in the wilderness surrounded by monsters, repelling wave after wave of monster attacks, and paid a heavy price themselves. One third died, one third was seriously injured, and everyone in the entire stronghold was covered with blood-stained medals.
Moreover, there are a large number of unemployed people in Dragon City, and there are no suitable jobs in the city. People do not wait or rely on them, and take the initiative to go out of the city to find a way out. This kind of spirit of striving for improvement is worthy of encouragement, at least it should not be criticized.
If the fruits of their struggle are not recognized, millions of unemployed youths will become ticking time bombs every minute.
Considering many factors, in the end, Huanyu Group reached an agreement with these pioneers and spent a sum of "humanitarian aid", which is actually a "land collection fee", to buy all the land near the stronghold from the pioneers.
And, arrange for all the pioneers to join the Huanyu Group and get their jobs.
And through the relationship of Huanyu Group, I helped them reissue various licenses and permits, which was a detour and solved the problem of legality.
As the news spread, the unemployed youths in Dragon City became even more excited. Countless people screamed and rushed out of Dragon City, preparing to copy the "successful case".
Of course, the lucky ones who can successfully establish a stronghold in the depths of the wilderness and survive until the arrival of the Red Dragon Army or super companies are very few.
Most of the strongholds will be slaughtered by monsters within a few months after they are established.
Or they gave up voluntarily because of poor logistical supplies and the mental and physical tension of the pioneers.
Thousands of unemployed youths are driven by ambition, turned into mutilated skeletons in the wilderness, and the excrement of monsters.
Such a tragedy cannot stop the latecomers from seeing death as home.
In a world infested with zombies and monsters, compared with living in a dark and damp basement for a lifetime, eating canned earthworm meat while watching the supernatural beings dominate the situation, death is not something to be feared.
Worse than death is being poor and worthless all your life.
The issue of undocumented pioneers is a legal gray area.
Survival committees cannot provide enough jobs and can only turn a blind eye and let young people find their own way.
Naturally, it is illegal in theory.
But as long as they can successfully establish a stronghold, persist for a long enough time, and make visible changes to the surrounding environment, the Survival Committee will acquiesce in the pioneers' ownership of this land, and when the pace of expansion arrives, they will be given enough. compensate.
Basically, no matter whether it is charging fees or arranging for pioneers to join super corporations, they can ensure that they live a stable and dignified life without worrying about food and clothing for a lifetime.
But the other side of "self-responsibility for profits and losses" is "self-destruction".
Citizens of Longcheng City fight defensive battles in the city, which belongs to "defending their homeland". Every time they kill a monster, they will record a battle merit, which can be exchanged for various resources as they continue to accumulate.
If injured or sacrificed, there is still a chance to get a medal and enjoy the treatment of heroes and martyrs.
And if you go out of the city without permission, the hunted monsters cannot be exchanged for military exploits. If you want to bring back the monster materials to sell in the city, you have to pay taxes according to the highest standard. If you are killed by a monster in the wild, you will not get any compensation and compensation. compensated.
This is also impossible.
If every unemployed youth who ventured into the wilderness and was eaten by monsters could get a pension from the Survival Committee.
Dragon City's economy and finances have already collapsed hundreds of times.
In short, the advance base built by Tenglong can be regarded as a "regular army".
Strongholds established by undocumented pioneers are considered "guerrillas".
When the regular army mentioned guerrillas, they still refused to follow their own command. The guerrillas who often made their own claims naturally dismissed them and even complained.
Complaints are nothing but complaints, they are not far from each other, and there is such a dangerous thing as a beast horde, so we still need to pay attention to their situation.
Even if the stronghold of the undocumented pioneers is really breached by monsters, at least they have to collect their corpses, and they can't be allowed to leave their corpses in the wilderness or even turn into monsters to defecate.
This concerns the dignity of all human beings.
"Does the other party have a Transcendent, and how is the equipment?" Meng Chao asked.
"There are three superhumans, and the most powerful one seems to be the two-star spirit transformation. The rest of the ordinary people have received military training. And some unmanned attack aircraft—these second-hand weapons and equipment are getting cheaper and cheaper recently.
Director Jiang said, "Many undocumented pioneers think that they can walk sideways in the wilderness with full armor. Huh, their broken copper and rotten iron can deal with swords, halberds, devil pigs, armored rhinos and so on. It's really a nightmare. King or hell beast, there is only one way to die!"
Ignoring Director Jiang's complaints, Meng Chao felt that as long as this stronghold did not encounter a large-scale animal horde, it might not be unsustainable.
He decided to rush over to have a look.
Director Jiang thought for a while, called a strong man at the top of the land, led a Dragon Tooth commando armed to the teeth, and followed Meng Chao to check.
This stronghold of undocumented pioneers does not have the ability to develop on a large scale by itself.
In fact, their idea was to hold out in the wilderness for a period of time, and when Tenglong Construction's advance base continued to expand, they would sell the stronghold and the surrounding land to Tenglong Construction, changing from a "guerrilla" to a "regular army".
Therefore, the two sides have had some contacts, and Director Jiang also knows the specific coordinates of the other party's stronghold.
The armored convoy full of more than 20 Dragon Tooth commandos drove south for more than 20 minutes, and the ground gradually became muddy and rough.
Ahead is a lush jungle.
There are also patches of deadly swamps hidden, but also extremely fertile humus, which is very suitable for transformation into a genetic farm for planting spiritual plants.
Fences were erected around the jungle, and barbed wire was wrapped around it.
There are also criss-cross tire tracks left on the ground.
There is also a large wooden sign with a yellow smiley face painted on it, and below the smiley face are four words:
"happy farm".
This is presumably the name given to the stronghold by undocumented pioneers.
but……
Meng Chao operated the power of the magnetic levitation and floated to a height of more than ten meters. He saw black smoke wafting from the edge of the forest.
There is also a faint smell of blood.
Meng Chao sighed and returned to the ground.
"There are many bad luck and bad luck."
He said, "Everyone be vigilant, there may be monsters inside."
A group of people stepped into the jungle cautiously.
Soon, they saw a sealed building half hidden underground like a silver eggshell.
And the remains of monsters scattered all over the building.
There was indeed a fierce battle here.
The battle situation is not what everyone imagined.
They did not see human corpses.
On the contrary, it seems that humans have massacred monsters one-sidedly, and there are scattered limbs and arms of monsters everywhere.
Meng Chao knelt down on one knee in front of a fairly complete corpse of a monster, dipped a little of the monster's blood, and pinched it with his fingers.
From the analysis of the blood viscosity, it was only a moment ago that they died here.
"……strangeness."
Meng Chao frowned and murmured, "There are at least dozens of blood moon demon wolves, ghost leopards, and other ligers and tigers here, many of which have reached the level of 'Nightmare beasts'.
"It looks like their original site was seized by the tyrant mammoth, and they were forced to go to the human stronghold to find a new lair.
"But he was killed cleanly and neatly by humans... with a fierce and heavy method."
Meng Chao has flaw detection skills beyond the "master level".
It can be seen naturally that these monsters were all killed by one or two humans in just a few minutes.
He was even able to roughly simulate the scene at that time from the distribution of the monster corpses—first, the vicious monsters confidently launched a surprise attack on the human stronghold, dexterously dodging the hail of human bullets, thinking that a bloody feast would start in the next second .
Unexpectedly, they soon encountered a humanoid beast that was ten times more ferocious than themselves, and they instantly became prey from hunters. The killing instinct was completely defeated by fear, and they fled one after another, but still failed to escape the shadow of death.
Disemboweling, exploding the spine, ripping off limbs, gouging out eyes, and even having his upper and lower jaws ripped apart alive—this can be called a brutal method of killing, and Meng Chao, an old driver of the doomsday, can be seen They were all jumping with fear and dripping with cold sweat.
