Chapter 81

"Alright, everyone. According to the previous arrangements, one group will search for food, another group will search for other supplies, and another group will look for a sturdy shelter. Although it's still a few hours before nightfall, be very careful when entering buildings, and always stay together, don't split up. Don't forget the precautions."

The white man standing at the front of the armored vehicle was Major Gray, the commander of these survivors, who was quickly assigning tasks.

The group cautiously moved around the small town. They all knew how terrifying the Night Demons were and had learned their lessons from past experiences.

"Hey, guys, look what I brought back!" The black man, Moore, walked into the supermarket's transfer warehouse with several large bags.

"Tyree, although I've praised you many times already, I must praise you again. It's really great to have you. No matter where we go, we won't get lost, and you always find the places we need quickly and accurately."

"Moore, if you really appreciate me, then come and help quickly." Tyree, with black hair and blue eyes, said without turning his head.

"Alright. Here, little ones." Moore handed out candies from his pocket to two children and then went over to help.

They were planning to seal the doors and windows of the transfer station. The Night Demons cannot withstand sunlight but are very active at night, with excellent vision and hearing. For safety, they needed to seal everything at night.

"Florida is too hot. I found a lot of meat in a restaurant before, including beef, mutton, and crocodile meat. The restaurant had an automatic generator that would start when the power was cut off. Unfortunately, the fuel ran out. Otherwise, the meat in the fridge could still be edible. If we were in the north, the meat could be stored for a longer time."

Moore muttered as he worked, clearly not just the high school student Jenny, but he also missed the smell and taste of fresh meat.

"Let's see how it goes. If it's relatively safe here, we can go out hunting. The animals from the zoo are running all over the place. Also, the alligators and lizards in Florida are rampant. We might change our diet. Although it's not the public hunting season, I doubt anyone will punish us." A young white man laughed.

"Hannah, you're so smart." Moore's face was full of surprise, then he said regretfully,

"Oh, why didn't I think of this before? I missed out on a lot of fresh meat. Alligators and such are fine, but even some fish would be nice. And wild deer, hmm, I really miss the taste of venison. Ha, let's hurry up tonight, and we'll go hunting tomorrow!"

Not just Moore, but others who were inspired by the idea also began to speak, clearly very eager for fresh meat.

After the men finished their work, Linda and the others had almost prepared dinner. In the dim light, this place, which was far from comfortable, was the shelter for these dozen people.

"This pattern looks like a snake. I heard someone say it's a totem from China, but the ones I've seen before don't look like this, as if it's made of light points. Could it be left by the Chinese?"

After dinner, Jenny carefully examined the badge. This young girl still held more hope and imagination, hoping to discover a turning point in fate through this somewhat mysterious badge, as mentioned in the recording.

"Ah..." Suddenly, Jenny let out a cry, and everyone immediately became alert. Gray and Tyree raised their guns.

"God, what is this?" Moore shivered.

"Jenny, come over here." Linda stepped forward and pulled Jenny away, and the others also moved the elderly and weak to one side.

"Could that mysterious person be God or the Devil?" someone whispered.

Undoubtedly, the mysterious person these survivors were talking about was Zhang Hao.

Tired of controlling the remote-controlled aircraft to search for supplies, he decided to use the lucky people in this world.

He prepared recording devices and radio equipment, and the most important part was the beacons attached to the Star Dragon badges, which he placed in various locations using the remote-controlled aircraft. The recording devices contained the exact location determined by the surrounding landmarks and maps, as well as other words.

If someone received the radio signal and came over, when they took the Star Dragon badge, Zhang Hao would sense the movement of the beacon, knowing that he had caught a fish, encountered survivors, and could then make contact with them.

When the time came, whether through cooperation or coercion, with the help of these virus-immune survivors, he could quickly gather various supplies.

There had been no activity for a long time, and Zhang Hao was not surprised. After all, the situation in the "I Am Legend" world was too dire, and it was uncertain how many people had survived. So when he detected one of the beacons being moved last night, he was quite pleased.

However, he did not act immediately. The beacon was still moving, and the movement suggested that the person was traveling by vehicle, which was not a good time to make contact. Besides, the warmth of the bed and the two beautiful women beside him made him reluctant to get up.

So, after getting up, washing up, and having breakfast the next day, Zhang Hao prepared to make contact with the survivors.

He went directly to a specially arranged hall where the equipment he used to explore other worlds and search for supplies was located.

Thinking about who the survivors were and how many there were, and planning how to make contact, Zhang Hao finally opened the portal and inserted the connected camera, speaker, and microphone into the portal.

On the other side, the dozen survivors were at a loss when they saw the wavy light. Just as Gray was about to step forward to test it, he saw ripples in the light, followed by the appearance of the camera and other devices.

Through the image on the computer screen, Zhang Hao saw the situation on the other side. Although the light was dim, it was enough for him to identify the survivors. The number of survivors was somewhat surprising, but it was not a bad thing. "Hi, it's great to see you."

"Who, who are you?" The situation was beyond common sense. However, seeing the electronic devices like cameras, the idea of God or demons that some people had guessed before disappeared.

Gray noticed the microphone and stepped forward to ask.

"Do you think the other side might be some crazy scientist who has developed space-folding technology?" Moore whispered to Linda.

Linda's beautiful green eyes glared at Moore. Linda didn't know who was on the other side, but she was clear that this could be the biggest turning point for the group, possibly allowing them to escape the terrifying dangers. So she didn't want anyone or anything to interfere with the communication.

"Alright, alright. We'll listen. I hope the person on the other side isn't a bad guy, and isn't looking for survivors to experiment on." Moore muttered.

"You can call me KING." Zhang Hao smiled. This title wasn't just for show; after all, he was now a king and would soon become an emperor, so the title was fitting.

"My background is quite mysterious. I am not from your world; I am from another world. My world is very safe, with no monsters or viruses. In other words, the food and safety I promised in the recording are abundant food and absolute safety. This might be good news for you. See, as I said, when you wear the metal badge, your fate will change."

"Another world?" The survivors looked at each other, their expressions somewhat strange, but many faces showed hope.

"Yes, you can verify this for yourself when you come over. I won't lie to you about this, and there's no need to. I will do what I promise. But there is one condition: I am not your God, and I won't help you for nothing. I need you to help me with some things. Well, out of compassion, the elderly, women, and children can be exceptions." Zhang Hao said calmly.

"You can't do this. Do you have any compassion? We are already so miserable." The middle-aged white man waved his hands.

"Alright." Gray gestured for the middle-aged white man to be quiet. He looked at the portal and asked calmly,

"What do you want us to do? Someone with your abilities, do you really need us survivors?"

"Very good. It seems you have a calm commander, which is fortunate." Zhang Hao smiled. He hoped to deal with someone more level-headed, not those with modern ideas of freedom, equality, and so-called humanitarianism, as he had no time to waste on them.
