Chapter 22 (1/2)
”Polar eater? Where is it?” Jeff exclaimed.
”It should be in the ship. I've seen it in the distance before.”
”Are you the man just now?”
Chu Feng nodded, briefly introduced himself, and then said, ”I came here yesterday. I wanted to go in and find some supplies, but...”
”Captain, what should we do? We can't get in yet?” Jeff asked anxiously.
”Of course, go in, or what about the materials.” Mark said firmly. ”I'll take the first team in, and you and the second team will stay here. Don't build a temporary camp. Prepare the vehicles and who is ready to evacuate.”
”Captain, I...”
”Stop talking. It's an order.”
Jeff was about to speak when Mark interrupted him and had to agree to follow the order.
Chu Feng stood by and didn't speak. After all, he was just an outsider and couldn't get involved in other people's internal affairs. As for Mark's decision, it is understandable. After all, this is the mission of the wilderness hunters. They exchange their lives for materials to support the lighthouse. But it is impossible for him to agree. Generations of famine hunters and dust people have paid countless lives in exchange for nothing. Fair? Nonexistent; Dignity? Nonexistent; Seriously injured, give up; Old and useless, abandon it. That's why the spirit cage is said. The spirit cage is the cage of the soul, the lighthouse is the cage, and the flesh is also the cage, the body for storing the soul.
Although these people are alive, they are no different from the dead. Perhaps this is the helplessness under despair.
”Hey, who, what's your name?” a young female voice sounded behind him, interrupting his meditation.
”Chu Feng, what about you?”
”My name is Erica. Nice to meet you, Mr. chufeng.” the beautiful girl Erica took the initiative to say that she seemed very interested in chufeng, and then asked, ”chufeng, how do you live on land and are not afraid of polar beasts?”
Chu Feng saw the dust people around him working and quietly pricking their ears with the remaining light from the corner of his eyes. He smiled and said: ”Of course, I'm not afraid. My strength is still very strong. Even if I can't beat the polar beast, I can easily run away. And don't you know, the world has changed. If you walk 200 kilometers west from here, you will reach a new continent. There is a vast area, there are a lot of human life on it, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and there is no harm from the polar beast.”
”What, new world, don't worry about food and clothing. Is this man joking?”
”How could there be such a good place? “
”Yes, the lighthouse is the last base of mankind. Who doesn't know?”
”But that man is not a lighthouse man. Where does he live?”
“……”
I don't know who suddenly mentioned a problem, which immediately made the people around silent, and all the dust people were stunned.
Erica's beautiful eyebrows frowned and suddenly asked, ”what you said is true? Is there any evidence?”
