The person who spoke was a skinny man. As he was too skinny, his huge head looked a little shaky on his neck. It was very strange. When he spoke, his eyes flashed with a strange light. In this pitch-black darkness, a pair of glowing eyes always made people feel goosebumps and shudder. The few people behind him who had not retreated subconsciously swallowed their saliva when they heard his instigation. “Nothing ventured, nothing gained! We can’t starve ourselves to death like this!”
“That’s right! If we don’t break in, we won’t have the strength to walk back to the base! We’ve all been abandoned. Who cares about our lives?”
“That’s right. We were forced to do this. We just want to live. What mistake are we making? We only want food and mean no harm. We’re just poor people, so the people inside will definitely understand us!”
Du Yue stood in the courtyard and listened to their conversation quietly. She felt that it was extremely ridiculous. Why should they have to empathize with thieves? In order to survive, they could casually barge into other people’s houses and rob them? Du Yue’s eyes darkened as she said to He Xing, “Double the current.”
“No problem!”
He Xing turned around and left. Du Yue looked in the direction of the group of people again. They already knew about the existence of the power grid and the electric fence. If they rushed up and touched the electric fence, they definitely had it coming. Sure enough, just as He Xing increased the current, the man who had spoken just now touched the fence. The electric current was twice as strong as before. This time, he did not have any chance to react at all. The moment his hand touched the electric fence, his eyes rolled back from the electric current. His body began to twitch uncontrollably, and the scream from his mouth was ear-piercing and unpleasant.
Seeing him like this, the person beside him was so scared that he did not dare to act rashly. “Are you okay?”
As he spoke, he reached out to support the person. The human body was a conductor. As soon as he touched the other party’s arm, his entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
When the others saw the two of them like this, they all began to retreat in panic. They no longer dared to reach out their hands to touch them or the electric fence. It was not until the first thin man was knocked out and fell to the ground that his hand fell off the electric fence. “Did they get electrocuted to death?”
“They’re definitely dead!
“I can’t even hear their breathing!”
“They’re really dead? That’s good. They’re our comrades and our loved ones. Our loved ones were electrocuted to death by this electric fence. We definitely can’t let this go. No matter what, we have to get an explanation from the people inside! Don’t you think so?”
“Yes! The owner of this electric fence has to compensate! We can’t just let go of two lives!”
When everyone heard this, they came to a realization and began to echo, “Yes, these are two living people! They have to compensate! At the very least, they have to compensate us with the cattle and sheep that they’re raising here!” “Yes, let’s do that! We can’t let our comrades die in vain!”
“The people inside, come out immediately! My friends were electrocuted to death by your electric fence. You have to compensate us today!” Everyone shouted in unison, their voices so loud that they almost broke through the sky.
Du Yue, who was in the courtyard, heard all of their plans. She could not help but laugh coldly. What comrades?
Whose first reaction would be to exchange the lives of their dead comrades for food? She had really underestimated how shameless these people were! Xia Ju could not help but click her tongue. “Shameless people are truly scum. How can they have the nerve to say such things?”
He Xing walked back and whispered, “So, should we just let them be or?”
Du Yue sneered. “Turn on the lights. Let me see who’s so shameless!”
With a click, all the lights in the courtyard lit up.
There were many lights in the courtyard, and the light they emitted was strong enough. When all of them were turned on, the entire courtyard was as bright as day, allowing people to see everything in the courtyard clearly. Even the surroundings of the courtyard were illuminated by the strong light, and the field of vision was much better. The people outside the courtyard had already adapted to the darkness. Suddenly, they were shaken by the strong light and subconsciously closed their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, they saw three young people with noble figures standing in the courtyard. Seeing the attire of Du Yue and the other two, the people outside the courtyard were obviously stunned.
Some even pinched their own hands to make sure that they were not dreaming. Whether it was their clean clothes, their smooth skin, or their indifferent expressions, all of it stimulated their nerves.. They were all living in the apocalypse, so why did they have good food and clothes? Why could they grow grass and raise farm animals in such a beautiful place?
