Chapter 96: Slavery

What did Lu Chuan venture from the city to the survivor stronghold for?

Person.

Lu Chuanwei is actually a human being.

A survivor with skills and knowledge.

They may be a lack of survival skills, and they are a burden in the last days, but in Lu Chuan's eyes, it is not true. They are like a huge fortune that can create countless fortunes for themselves.

If it weren't for them, Lu Chuanda could develop little by little in the center of the city, and then advance little by little.

Venturing here, Lu Chuan also raised his heart.

Now that I have entered the stronghold, the first step is to find enough scientific and technological talents; The second step is how to get them to follow them out of the stronghold; The third step is the issue of relocating them.

The placement in the third step, Lu Chuan has already thought of it, and there will be no problem.

The minus four and minus five floors of the biochemical plant, with tens of thousands of square meters of space, are not a problem to house them.

With the structure of the biochemical factory, as well as their own control of the biochemical factory, it is impossible for them to leave without their own permission.

This is only temporary, in the fourth step, Lu Chuan will also pick out a place and use zombies to create an insurmountable area.

For example, a community in the city is transformed, and there are zombies made by biochemical factories on all sides, completely surrounding the community and becoming a huge cage.

It seems very inhumane, but compared to this stronghold, it is heaven.

At least they don't lack food and don't run the risk of starvation.

The more they contribute, the stronger they will become, and the larger the area they cover. When the time comes, their space for activity will also be larger.

It's like a virtuous circle, but it's actually mutually beneficial.

In the early stage, it seemed that Lu Chuan was imprisoning them, but in the long run, they would gain freedom that they did not have in the last days.

Who can say for sure what the future is beyond?

…………

In this world, many things cannot be seen through on the surface.

For example, this stronghold where Lu Chuan is now.

To the outside world, it protects the safety of human survivors and provides a place to live.

There is nothing wrong with describing it this way, and it is certainly true.

But what about the facts?

When Lu Chuan walked here, he realized the cruelty of the last days, because this stronghold adopted semi-slavery. The only thing anyone who wants to live, who is incapable, is to become a slave to the powerful.

The colony was initially made up of surviving humans, scattered and unorganized, and temporary.

But as time goes by, more and more survivors are gathered here, and under the interests and human nature, the thrill of the battle is so dangerous that I don't know how many people did not die in the hands of zombies, but were killed by their own kind.

The several forces that have been generated have finally supported this one stronghold.

More than half of the hundreds of thousands of people are slaves belonging to several forces.

And there are fewer and fewer free human beings.

It is certain that in another three or so years, the stronghold will enter a complete slave society.

In the stronghold, Lu Chuan saw some temporary regulations.

For example, if any theft is discovered, the person who is a slave will be put to death; And those who are free will be forcibly turned into slaves, into the lowest level.

Don't look at the good life of free human beings, most of them live a life far worse than that of slaves.

Slaves still have a bite to eat, but if free human beings can't find a little work to earn food, what awaits them is hunger, and no one will pity half a point of death and hunger.

Either leave the stronghold and go outside in search of food, or become a slave.

The third option is to starve to death.

Once you leave the stronghold, the stronghold will charge a certain tax rate, so that many people who can't afford it can only wander outside, and eventually be found by zombies and become food for zombies.

In this way, the intention of the stronghold is already obvious, that is, to let the survivors of a civilized society struggle in this kind of torture and tribulation, until the last breath of backbone is worn out and the survivors are branded as slaves.

When you become a slave, you will be driven by people regardless of life or death.

Some of those with strong physiques were selected and trained to be armed men.

These armed personnel will be responsible for the security of the stronghold, suppressing slaves, and will also hunt zombies, plunder resources to replenish the stronghold, and so on.

Some slaves would be put into the manufacturing factory, making guns and weapons, and making everything that was needed.

Approaching the stronghold, Lu Chuan knew that there was still a lot of farmland that had been reclaimed and planted crops. A large number of slaves were assigned to work in this farmland.

The presence of zombies, especially some with strong flight power, has become the most dangerous source. Survivors working in the fields have a very high mortality rate because they are not protected.

The crops in the fields are completely irrigated by the lives and blood of the survivors.

And this food is generally only available to the upper echelons of power.

The people at the bottom live a life that is inferior to pigs and dogs, but the people in power at the top live a luxurious life far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In this stronghold, it will not be heaven, but the edge of hell.

As for the coming of the end times.

In fact, few people here know, only know that there are zombies in silence, and then, there is chaos that is completely out of control.

In just one day, people who do not have immunity have all turned into zombies.

Zombies chase the survivors, and the survivors flee in droves.

It's the same as in the movie novel.

The strong survive, and the weak become food for the zombies.

Since the world has collapsed, and things have already happened, who is going to investigate how the end times came about, how did the virus come about? With this energy, it is better to think about how to live.

The wanton zombies make the survivors only trapped on one side, and they don't know much about the outside world.

In this case, who can tell where the virus came from, or what the outside world looks like?

…………

"Listen, everyone, this person is stealing and cheating, hiding and bullying his superiors and subordinates."

"According to the decree, the death penalty is now given."

"This man is an example to those who do not obey the law."

When Lu Chuan walked to a street in the stronghold, more than a dozen armed men, carrying guns and crossbows, were holding a man with a disheveled hair, shouting loudly.

The man was scrawny, and at first glance he knew that he was suffering from chronic malnutrition, and hunger had tormented him to the point of being inhuman.

On this man's body, the clothes he wore were in tatters, and none of them were good.

It's full of dirt, and I don't know how long it's been since I've taken a shower.

The man didn't even move his eyes at the word execution, as if it had nothing to do with him.

There were quite a few survivors on the streets, some of them watching with interest, some of them being so numb that they had no feelings. More people are watching all this indifferently.

Executions, in this stronghold, are staged every day, and there is nothing strange about it.

In a pyramid-like society, they are at the lowest level, and in the eyes of those in power, they are just objects that can be slaughtered at will.

No one had pity on the man who was about to be put to death, because they still lacked people to take pity on him.

After the verdict was pronounced, a strong man with a strong Confucius, carrying a large mountain knife, stood in front of the man.

An armed man pressed the man's head, exposing his neck.

"Do you know his identity? The former deputy director of the Finance Bureau is now a slave. ”

"No matter how noble your status was, here, there is only one identity, and that is slavery. In the stronghold, you don't need your knowledge, all you need is your strength and security. ”

The armed man at the head was still talking loudly.

All this is a means of deterrence by the upper echelons.

Use this way to warn those who are restless.

After the leader finished speaking, his hand gently made a downward cutting motion.

"Ha ......"

The strong man lifted the mountain knife and slashed it fiercely.

The head was cut off and rolled to the ground. Bright red blood gushed out, and the rupture was even more dark red, and some arteries could be seen moving in violent contractions, looking hideous.

From beginning to end, it seems that this is just a play, not the end of a life.

Everything is so ordinary that in the eyes of many people, even think that this man is relieved.

After the head was chopped off, the body was packed in a sack and quickly taken away.

No one cares about the blood on the streets, but allows it to dry up on the streets.

All this happened to Lu Chuan in shock, he didn't expect that the beheading that only existed in ancient times would be staged here. When the knife rises and falls, it means that the head falls to the ground.

Lu Chuan had seen countless disgusting zombies, but the impact they brought was far less than the beheading scene in front of him.

The two Chu Bin, who followed Lu Chuan, looked as usual.

Like this scene, when the stronghold was officially divided two or three years ago, it was even more common when power was just established. In the last year or two, people have accepted this identity, and there has been less resistance.
