While Bai Meiyue and Lei Qian had come up with the decision to kill Yu Miaomiao, the rest of the survivors were also furious. They got these little supplies to begin with after killing hundreds and thousands of zombies. If they had to share even those little supplies, then how would they survive?
This was no different than killing them!
"How are we going to live like this?"
"This is too much! Are we going to live in the world of tyrants now?"
"Why don’t they go ahead and rob? I only got a few sacks of rice last time, and they took five bags out of the fifteen bags that I brought back. And that alone caused my family to starve for two times a day, as we could only eat once. If they start taking half, what will happen to my family? I have more than three branches to take care of!" A burly man exclaimed with an angry expression.
"Please calm down," Nurse Lin said, looking at the survivors who were discussing the new rules that Yu Miaomiao had passed down. "You all have received stitches today. If you pull them, it will be twice as problematic."
These people calmed down, but their anger towards the new laws didn’t ease. How were they going to survive like this? This was no different from forcing them to live outside. At least with their abilities, they would be able to kill the zombies, but how were they going to survive by handing over more than half of their supplies?
The reason they all came to this base was that they didn’t want to stay outside. Humans were social creatures, and they couldn’t stay outside among the walking dead. Thus, they came to the base where a lot of humans were staying together. As they awakened as ability users, they thought that this was their time to shine.
Who would have thought that all of a sudden, the dynamics of the base would change, and they would be forced to hand over more than half of their supplies? Entering the base looked like a really good option back then, but now it seemed like they had made a mistake.
Those who had a family were even more worried. The ability for users who didn’t have a family – they could stay outside, but what about them? How would they survive outside if they were to take their entire family with them? They most certainly could not!
Worry started to shroud the entire base. But there were a few people who were still filled with a sense of triumph at that moment.
"Here, take it and send it to Chief Yu," said Fox. earlier, when he went to the penthouse, he had used his telekinetic ability to steal some of the soil from the greenhouse when no one was paying attention to him.
Wang Ba had relayed the information about the rapid growth of the vegetables in the greenhouse of the Bai family. He told them that even though the Bai family used common seeds, the vegetables would grow really fast.
