Chapter 158: Selling Meat
If there is no new food output, even if food can be obtained from the ruins of the city and the remaining strategic reserve warehouses, what should humans eat when these foods are eaten up?
Perhaps, the only food left is the bodies of our own kind...
When the humans have finished killing each other, the human species will be extinct. Even without the insects, beasts, and zombies, the civilization on Earth will be completely wiped out.
Moreover, in this era, there are almost no new lives. People can't even feed themselves, let alone their children. Most of the children have died. Without babies, there is no next generation, and there is no future.
Although he had received news from "No. 3" about the "Angels" creating humans, and understood that today's humans were just creations of other civilizations, Richemont still felt uncomfortable.
Although human civilization has suffered a heavy blow and there are other alien races eyeing us, we still have the technology we have accumulated before. As long as we unite and work together, especially the cooperation between the originals and mutants, we will definitely be able to generate strong combat power. Humans are still the most powerful species on this planet. However, what everyone cherishes most is only their own lives. At this critical moment of life and death, they are still fighting among themselves...
In this desperate situation, the selfish gene becomes like a magnified beast and becomes even more ferocious.
Walking on the streets he once knew well, thinking of the tragic death of Long Ran, Li Feng could not help but feel a solemn and sacred feeling in his heart. Although Long Ran was dead, the spirit he left behind ignited the fire in the hearts of all mutants. Given time, this spark will eventually set the prairie on fire.
If it is possible, let me put an end to it all. If there is a God, let me kill Him!
Suddenly, a strange thought flashed through Lifeng's mind. Among previous generations of human beings, were there some people like him who knew they were in danger but still insisted on swimming upstream?
After a while, everyone arrived at the market in Chuyi City. This place had been built by Long Ran into a place no less than a large supermarket, but after being occupied by the original people, it was completely reduced to a market-like store.
Crowded stalls, people hawking and trading, food, scrap metal, daily necessities, rags, paper, etc., and of course, slaves and meat. What happened here was not much different from what happened in those small bases, except that it was on a larger scale.
There were many hunting teams coming here to trade, so the arrival of Lifeng and others did not attract much attention.
It was only when several mutants under Richemont opened the carriage and dragged out the corpses that the people nearby exclaimed in surprise.
You know, it is not an easy task to find seven or eight edible corpses at one time, even if they are the corpses of the original humans.
Many of the leaders of the surrounding hunting teams knew Li Tian. When they saw the scars on the corpses and the original size of the corpses, they immediately thought of the thieves eating each other. As a result, they had a new assessment of the fighting ability of Li Tian and his men, and became very wary.
As Li Tian helped to move the bodies, he felt a little proud when he saw the looks in everyone's eyes. He was originally just a captain of a hunting corps, and although he was known for his prowess outside, it was the first time that he was so noticed by his peers, so how could he not be proud? However, when he thought that all this was controlled by Richemont, he immediately felt depressed.
As soon as these bodies were moved out, a team of soldiers in standard military uniforms drove a truck from the military camp at one end of the market, took away half of the bodies without saying a word, and drove away.
When Li Tian saw these people, he couldn't help but smile. After they left, he came to Li Feng and whispered, "Sir... these are the garrison troops stationed at the fortress. They will take half of all our goods."
Li Feng nodded, looking at the military camp not far away, and fell into deep thought. This so-called military camp was actually just three three-story buildings built together. It looked like there were about 300 people at most. This number was nothing in peacetime, but it was already a strong force in this doomsday city. What's more, these garrisons were equipped with more advanced weapons.
"How many military camps like this are there, apart from those in other cities?" he asked Li Tian.
Li Tian immediately replied, "It was only a few days after Chuyi City was renamed that Chuancheng Fortress defeated the Salvation Alliance and seized the city. Some of the people who were originally loyal to Long Ran died or fled. It took a lot of effort just to clean them out, so the army of Chuancheng Fortress did not station too many people. There are six military camps in total, with nearly two thousand people."
Two thousand people... Li Feng narrowed his eyes and nodded. This number was still within the controllable range.
"Aren't the air force and armored forces of the Chuancheng Fortress deployed here?" Li Feng asked.
Li Tian curled his lips and said , "You don't know, sir, those things are the treasures of the Chuancheng Fortress. After using them once, they were immediately withdrawn, saying that they were afraid of encountering beasts. Those precious planes can only fly a dozen kilometers at most, otherwise they will be out of the communication range of the ground signal. Especially if they touch the black clouds in the sky, they will be corroded into iron slag immediately. In the last siege, dozens of planes were lost, and the army was basically wiped out. Those guys in the Chuancheng Fortress don't dare to let the planes take off again."
Li Feng smiled. He had heard about this from several mutants who had escaped. The reason why Chuancheng Fortress was able to use air power last time was because they built a temporary airport not far from the Savior City and dragged the plane over. Unexpectedly, the price was so huge.
"I understand. We can start the deal. Remember, I want you to collect all the mutant detention locations in the entire 'Elimination City'. If you miss one, you will have a finger cut off." Li Feng said coldly in Li Tian's ear, but there was still a warm smile on his face, as if he was a new recruit asking for instructions from the captain.
Li Tian felt a chill running down his body, and immediately agreed: "No problem, no problem, I will definitely satisfy you!"
Then he wiped the sweat off his forehead, and together with several mutants, carried the bodies in the truck to the door and used it as a counter.
Li Tian took a deep breath, knocked on the iron door skillfully, raised the axe in his hand, chopped off a thigh with one axe, and kept waving it in his hand and shouted: "Fresh beef, come quickly, come quickly! Only in exchange for weapons and ammunition!"
As soon as he finished speaking, some people who had been waiting for half a day immediately gathered around and shouted out their bids.
Immediately, the area around these corpses became as lively as a top-notch market...
