After some discussion.
Chen Feng already had a rough understanding of the gratitude and grudges of this city. When the city was at its most dangerous moment, a group of people had chosen to leave. As for some people, they had chosen to stay and protect their final home together.
It seemed that this dull guy in front of him was not a total failure. At the very least, he had some courage.
Chen Feng did not exhort too much. He only said a simple sentence. From now on, this city belonged to him.
Surprisingly, there were no opposing voices in the surroundings.
For Zhou Hongwei, the only reason he had stayed behind was for the survivors of this city, as well as to avenge his brother. Now that the city had not been breached and his enemy had been beheaded, these two wishes had already been fulfilled. As for becoming the true ruler of this city, he had never thought of doing so from the very beginning.
It was even more so for the others. Although this city was not breached, their food had already run out. It could be said that if it weren't for some unbearable feelings, they wouldn't even think of staying here.
At this time, people couldn't wait for someone to take charge of T City and clean up the mess in front of them.
With zero votes, Chen Feng gained control of the city just like that.
…
A perfectly round dark moon was hanging on a corner of the city wall. The ground was dark and gloomy, with a layer of pale white. It looked like a sleeping sea.
Night fell.
Two agile figures appeared on both sides of the street. It was Chen Feng and the dark elf.
Seeing was believing. Although Chen Feng easily obtained this city, he needed to personally check the situation of this city.
Therefore, Chen Feng had to come out and see everything with his own eyes.
The area of this city was not small. Compared with the previous economic zone, it could be compared with a lake and a stream. In peaceful times, because it was close to the port, it was the development center of the nearby cities, mainly focusing on trade and food.
But now …
Most of the places had become black ruins, dead and desolate. It was like a beast that had been dead for a long time, on the verge of the final stage of decay. Obviously, from the degree of dilapidation of the city, less than 60% of the city's land had been developed.
With the arrival of the apocalypse, frequent earthquakes occurred here. Coupled with the havoc of the monsters, this ancient city of culture was instantly turned into ruins. It was empty, but the flesh and blood inside no longer existed.
Looking at the broken high-rise buildings and the streets with a lot of water remaining because of the heavy rain a few days ago, it was clear that this was at best a safe zone, not a rich residential area.
Looking at everything in front of her, the dark elf curled her lips. "Is this also a city? It's so weak. What are those people doing? They have territory but don't know how to use it. In my opinion, these people should all be reduced to slaves..... "
Even though she had a human form, the dark elf had never called herself a human. Obviously, although she was now beautiful, she was still a heretic with a gorgeous appearance.
"It's not that they don't want to. You should know that the power of the apocalypse is not comparable to humans. This place is close to the sea. Even if there are objective food, the energy will affect the changes in the earth's crust. The probability of earthquakes is ten times, or even a hundred times more than in peaceful times. Many cities are instantly swallowed by earthquakes. Therefore, if there are no professionals and technology that can isolate earthquakes, most cities are mostly low wooden houses and bungalows."
Chen Feng sighed. He had seen many ruins, but every time he passed by one, there was always a bad feeling in his heart. This was different from the death. Witnessing the fall of those high-rise buildings, there was a kind of degradation and loss of civilization. It even gave people a sense of frustration that human civilization was almost lost.
Nowadays, humans had the existence of professionals. Their strange talents were enough to make up for the lack of technology. So-called skyscrapers in peaceful times required hundreds or even thousands of workers to modify them bit by bit. But for professionals, perhaps only a dozen people, using the power of nuclear energy, could build a skyscraper in a few weeks.
But …
What was the value of this?
The movement of the earth's crust caused by the energy made this land appear very fragile. There would be occasional tremors. A building that had just been built could be turned into ruins in the next second.
The most chilling thing was that there were a lot of people in the building. As long as it collapsed, thousands of people would die. Even more, there would be a stampede of tens of thousands of people.
Therefore, it was not that the professionals did not want to build this place, but that the natural and environmental factors had already cut off the possibility of prosperity here.
Therefore, this scene of devastation was formed. One side of the city was an area where humans lived, while the other side was a desolate ruin. It was like an uninhabited ghost town, full of desolation.
With the moonlight behind him, Chen Feng's figure sank into this ghost town.
Perhaps it was because of the torrential rain the day before yesterday, the originally uninhabited place was even more disfigured. A lot of debris was scattered all over the ground, mixed with corpses and mud, attracting a lot of flies. It was a mess and smelly, indescribably disgusting.
What made Chen Feng speechless was the fact that there were several corpses lying in some corners. All of them had been bitten until their flesh was badly mutilated. Arms, ribs, and internal organs were all on the ground and mixed with the excrement, creating a very chaotic visual effect.
Who would have thought that there would be a day when the corners of the city were not filled with drunkards, but human flesh?
And these corpses were surrounded by people. Their eyes were dull, and their movements were slow. Most of them were women, children, and the elderly past their prime.
In the past, this city was in the period of prosperity. As long as one had a specialty, even if one had a body of strength, one could participate in the physical labor of building walls and houses to eat and wear.
But behind the seemingly fair and democratic rules, there were also countless wails. For the powerless women, children, and the elderly who had lost their ability to work, this policy that seemed to benefit the people was a naked empty check.
And now, with a large amount of food being transported away by ships, it was difficult for able-bodied adults to survive. These women and children who had lost their support lived even more difficult lives.
This city had decayed to the extreme. In order to restore its previous glory, it had to be completely overthrown and then rebuilt on the original foundation.
This would take some time, but it would not take up all of Chen Feng's attention. Compared to the problem of the people's livelihood, he now had another important thing to do, and that was to build the port.
The sea.
