Chapter 349: Nibbling Away
Xiao Mu looked deeply at Qin Yi after explaining. The youth in front of him looked very strong, and if that was true, their base might be saved.
How could there be sympathy in the apocalypse? Through the years, the number of bases had grown but the amount of resources remained limited. Conflicts between bases became more common, especially since the larger bases naturally looked down on the smaller ones, to the extent that they started snatching their supplies and killing others.
The so-called ranking and swapping pointers with friendly bouts were in fact just a front for the largest few bases to nibble away at the small bases. If not for their base location being too far away, it would have long been devoured.
Qin Yi was naturally aware of this. The scuffles between bases in her previous life were much more ferocious where the destruction of cities and bases were not because of zombies but due to humans. More specifically, the greed and ferocity of the human heart.
Qin Yi did not raise her head, continuing to stir gently for a few rounds before speaking up.
"Let's eat."
Xiao Lu was overwhelmed by her favor and rubbed his hands in anticipation to take a bite while Qin Yi ate gracefully.
"I'll go."
Xiao Mu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart but did not eat her food, continuing to eat his bread.
