Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 26 Secondary World Distortion
"System, what's going on here? How did Winter House turn into a biohazard? How is this different from the original plot?"

"I feel that the world distortion has reached the second level, and the influence of the ring of darkness has begun to spread in this world. More information needs to be further contacted with these distortion products to learn. Please make relevant preparations for the host."

The system's explanation is meaningless. Li Jianghao believes that if he doesn't take the initiative to ask, the system will not take the initiative to tell him until he sees those corpse-like things with his own eyes.

He doesn't bother to ask what tasks and rewards he will get after the distortion of the secondary world.The most urgent task is to organize the people and prepare them psychologically, so that when the news of the living corpse reaches New London, another wave of dissatisfaction will explode and hope will plummet.

Speaking of the Fire Sword, Li Jianghao rang the bell, and the citizens who were resting were awakened, and they got up and went outside, not knowing what was going on.

"Mr. Mayor, is there something urgent?"

"Is there news from the Winter House?"

"Or are those predators here again? Mr. Mayor, didn't you say they won't show up again?"

People looked at the mayor who was running all the way, and they couldn't tell from his actions that waking everyone up so late would be some good news to tell them.

When everyone gathered in front of the energy tower, Li Jianghao looked serious and said:
"My citizens, I have to tell you that Winter Home has encountered a crisis. After a disease killed the citizens of Winter Home, their bodies returned to action and turned into monsters that only knew how to eat living things. I know this news It’s hard for you to believe it now, but I ask you to be prepared to defend yourself.”

"I have asked a hunter team to go to the steel bridge. The outpost dispatch team that has not yet set off will carry 100 pieces of steel and then set off. We will form the first defensive front on the steel bridge. After the robots that have joined the production line are completed, they will go to the rail station to garrison .Andrew, add weapons to their robotic arms that are sharp enough to chop off limbs."

"Citizens, please don't give up hope, I will be with you no matter what."

A series of news said that people are more unable to react and are still digesting these sudden news.But what is certain is that the Winter House is gone.

The hope value of New London began to plummet in an instant, and some people even knelt down on the ground, losing the spirit in their eyes.

“You have to give people hope again.”

"Some people are starting to have horrible thoughts, they think it will be safer to go back to London, stop them!"

The system began to act as a ruthless explanation machine, but to Li Jianghao's ears, these words seemed to be mocking himself.

"My citizens, you must stand up. Now that the danger is not over, I will personally go to the steel bridge to stop the resurrected monsters there. You must build a defensive wall here. Starting today, the excess wood must be processed into Sharpened spears until every workman holds one. Tomorrow all workplaces are off except for the shearer and steel works, and after the walls are built you may rest until I return."

Li Jianghao issued an order. These people have lost their souls now, and someone in charge must come out and take them away.If you are not determined enough, then these people will fall into the arms of the London Gang. At this time, you must show absolute confidence.

The rail car started, carrying some workers and Li Jianghao to the entrance of the low-lying land. People can rely on the rail station to quickly establish a defensive front.After that, the outpost team with a population of 10 will carry the steel to the steel bridge, where they will resist the living corpses with Li Jianghao.

It is impossible for Li Jianghao to give up the reconnaissance team retreating to the coal mine, so he asked them to withdraw directly.Even if doing so will attract zombies to follow, and even find their way to New London along the way.

In the long run, this is not a rational decision.But Li Jianghao understands that if the population of Winter House turns into living corpses, when they wander out, the survivors of the entire ice field will be devoured by them.Until these monsters find New London.

Therefore, it is the best time to kill these things when the crisis is just sprouting.It's best when most people haven't seen these ghosts with their own eyes, but they can't be completely blinded by their news.

"I don't know if anyone in the reconnaissance team has been infected. Although some people have been bitten, the system hasn't indicated that anyone has died, so it's fine for the time being. I hope these things won't be contagious."

Li Jianghao muttered to himself, turned over and stepped on the sled. The outpost dispatch team would set off behind him. It would take some time to sort out the resources. Originally, these steel materials had already been sent to the factory, ready to build robots.

After confirming the map and direction, Li Jianghao picked up the holy sword and headed towards the steel bridge.If there is no accident, he will be able to meet the reconnaissance team at the steel bridge tomorrow morning.

After he left, the camp also began to get busy.No matter what, first execute the mayor's order before leaving, and build a defensive wall to be prepared.

Afterwards, few people were able to sleep, and the walls continued to rise to protect people. After that, more than half of the people did not have to work, and they chose to return to the tents to accompany their families and children.Some children ran to shelters, but no teachers came to class.

As for the arrival of Huck and Pierre, the two of them can't get involved in any work for the time being, so they can only come here.

"Fanni, it's really impossible. You should take the other children home first. The adults will be worried. You don't have to go to class today, so no one will scold you."

Huck is ready to let these children go back so that their parents won't worry.

"I can go back, but they can't. Their father was killed by bad guys, and the mayor avenged them. I have to accompany them, otherwise the adults would not care about these partners."

Fanny was the most mature of them all, like a little grown-up.She brings children who have lost their parents to a children's shelter here.This is the most familiar environment for children. Without the company of their families, these children will not panic and feel neglected here.

"I didn't expect this, Fanny, you are such a sensible child. However, I see that you are not afraid at all. You see, some adults were so frightened that they fainted yesterday."

Huck complimented him, noticing that the children were in a good mood, and wondering why they weren't scared.

He added: "The mayor said, there are monsters that can eat people there."

After the children heard it, their eyes were a little flustered, and Fanny was no exception, but she quickly said:
"We are not afraid, Mr. Mayor will save us again. Moreover, he told us that as long as we are willing to believe, when encountering danger, there will be a black bird named Shang who is full of flames to save us! "

That's just a made-up story, you won't believe it.

Huck was a little helpless, but he didn't say this, he just sighed that he didn't know how many strange stories the mayor told these children.
