blood plague

Chapter 166 New Planning
Everyone was stunned by this sudden change.

This morning, Ryan and Ella left Rapid Creek Town in a small van. The fertilizer on the van was unloaded yesterday, and the newly formed internal scavengers were going to go to Todo Town to grab some supplies back.

Since the small van only has single-row seats, Ryan, who is familiar with the road conditions, took Ira with him, and the two set off like this.

Unexpectedly, a few hours later, Ella brought back Ryan's body.

Afterwards, Ella described what happened during this period.

When today passed, Ella fell asleep while sitting in the co-pilot due to some fatigue in the past few days. After Ryan drove the minivan to Todo Town, Ella was very sleepy.In a daze, Ella asked Ryan to go to the store first, and then he would come over after a while.

Just minutes after Ryan got out of the car, Ella heard three gunshots.

As soon as she heard the gunshot, Ayla was so scared that she shrank under the co-pilot and hid.Because Ella knew that Ryan was unarmed.The only weapon of the scavengers is the shotgun, which is in the hands of security guard Ella.

After Ella hid in fear for a while, she heard the sound of a car starting. After the sound of the car went away, Ella poked her head out and looked around, but she didn't see anyone around.

Afterwards, Ella carefully opened the car door and took out the shotgun.When she sneaked into the store, she saw Ryan lying in a pool of blood.

At this time, Ryan had fallen into a coma, and Ella tried her best to pull Ryan into the car, and then rushed towards Rapid Creek Town.In the end, it was still too late, and Ryan had already died of excessive blood loss.

Ella didn't know how the whole incident happened, she didn't know who the other party was, and she didn't know how many people there were. From the time it happened until now, everything was a mystery to her.

From a fair point of view, Ella's approach was really the best choice at the time. Whether she showed her face rashly or went to check blindly, she might be taken in together.

According to Ella's story, the murderer walked away after killing Ryan, without even thinking of scraping the vehicle he drove, indicating that it was a sudden passionate murder.

No one knows what the reason is, maybe Ryan had a dispute with the murderer, maybe Ryan blocked the murderer's way, or maybe even just Ryan took an extra look at the murderer.

Such emergencies were totally unpredictable.

While Iger was shocked by Ryan being shot, the rest of the team reacted less violently.

Perhaps because of the blood plague, everyone hasn't heard about this for a long time, and they have gradually forgotten it.But in America, there is no reason to shoot and be shot.

It doesn't matter what Ryan may or may not have done.After the blood plague broke out, the good guys survived, and the bad guys also survived.

When Egg arrived in Todo town that day, what he saw was a friendly smile.Maybe Iger met a friendly stranger, maybe the friendliness of the stranger is just for the four armed men in front of him.

Ryan was still too careless. He walked out of the store with his bare hands. The store is definitely the place with the most acute contradictions at the moment.

Your strength is everything that determines other people's attitude towards you.

The smiling face you met yesterday may not be the same smiling face today.

In the current environment, it is normal for everyone to feel insecure, but an open and inclusive attitude like that of the gospel team is an alternative.

Gospel team emergency meeting.

At the meeting, for Ryan's accidental death, everyone just discussed and added some new systems for going out to the field.

For example, apart from Fran's third team, no matter whether it is the field brigade or the internal scavenger team, a minimum of four people must be guaranteed each time they are on duty. In terms of firepower, they must be equipped with at least three long guns.

However, regarding the Ryan incident, no one proposed to punish the murderer at the meeting, because they didn't even know who the murderer was, let alone revenge.

The reality is so helpless, Ryan's death is more aggrieved than Penny.

In a suffocated silence, Iger opened his mouth to remind Lily not to broadcast this incident.

Firstly, gossip about the dead on the radio is very disrespectful, and secondly, it is not only meaningless to the moment, but also easily deepens the hostility and tension among the scavengers.

Lily nodded in agreement after hearing Iger's words.

For Ryan, Iger felt a little heartache. He still remembered Ryan squatting at the door in the middle of the night and crying bitterly.

Ryan's sudden death dealt a great blow to Iger's plan to resume agricultural production. Not to mention how to use a lot of agricultural machinery, I don't know where to find seeds now.

In this way, the accidental death of one person had a major impact on the future development of the team.

However, Iger cannot specifically propose that certain people must be given priority protection.

No one's life is more precious than others, including Iger himself.

Except for some people who are not suitable for field work, such as Lily, and some people who are not suitable to leave Rapid Creek Town due to their own functions, such as Dr. Heidemi, others, including Father Locke and Sister Maria, can only arrange field work. A matter of priority, but there is no overriding reason for refusing to go to the field.

The three mission objectives of the Eiger Field Service Brigade, two of which were completed in one go today, the delivery vehicles and the oil drums are all there, and the wheels of the broken car are found if you can find them, and forget if you can’t find them. On the road, find a car to transfer if necessary.

Iger submitted an important task application at the meeting, the description of fuel collection.

"During many field missions, I found that the difficulty of picking up materials is very different. Therefore, our scavengers should give priority to picking up important and high-value materials.

Currently, the most valuable commodity is fuel.On the one hand, it is because fuel has a high use value, and on the other hand, it is very difficult to obtain fuel.

The next highest value are firearms, ammunition and food, and perhaps some special medicines.

The slightly higher value is all kinds of daily necessities and means of production.

At a slightly lower value are all kinds of durable goods, including but not limited to clothes, cars, and so on.

There are also a large number of items with certain practicality but low value, for example, the board game chess that everyone plays at night.

So, I have an idea, let me say it first for your reference.

I don't think we need to pick up all the supplies, we can try to trade with other survivor teams to get the supplies that we are relatively expensive to pick up.

Judging from the field work these few times, there are many survivors picking up waste outside, but everyone did not gather together. On the contrary, the survivor team seemed to avoid contact with each other, so I gave you a sense that we live in the 'no one' zone' feel.

I have also talked with several survivors, they all have no fixed camps, and they walk and pick up waste all the way.

When they do this, two problems are prone to occur. One is that they may not find what they want, and the other is that they may be able to find some things that are not easy for us to find.

With comparative advantage, trade can take place.

We can use fuel as a calibration object and exchange it for goods. On the one hand, it can expand our waste picking efficiency, and on the other hand, it can expand the influence of our team.

However, there are two prerequisites for this.

First of all, we need a lot of high-value goods, such as fuel oil.

Second, we need to have the ability to protect ourselves and our goods, such as fortresses.

In this way, we can avoid being maliciously attacked by some survivor teams while doing transactions.

Uncle Vance, how long will it take us to complete the renovation? "

After hearing Iger's words, Vance thought for a while, and then said, "Two months at the earliest."

"It took more than a week to build, and the final completion period has become longer!" Iger couldn't help asking when he heard it.

Upon hearing this, Vance said with some dissatisfaction, "It's not because you have expanded the planning area."

When Iger heard this, he felt guilty.
