FrostNova leads Big Bear and other members of the Yeti squadron through the vast snow and reaches their destination. The house was embedded under the dark mountain. The heavy snow covered the thick door, but the door had been opened by someone, and several messy footprints were covered by the white snow.
She was a little uncertain. Although Mr. Generator said that these people knew they were coming, a city of infected people, the other party would most likely think it was a cover.
FrostNova held onto the edge and jumped off the sled. "Big Bear, go look around and find the owner of these footprints. Remember not to follow too far. If something happens to you, it will be very difficult for us to find you."
"Understood, sister,"
Big Bear got off the sled and said, "Big sister, you should be careful too. If there are a few black bugs in there..."
Frost Star approached the shelter and knocked on the thick iron door. She gripped the dagger in her other hand and activated the Originium Arts. The coldness on her body slowly dissipated outwards.
"Sister Anto?"
FrostNova heard a still somewhat childish female voice coming from the shelter, "Anto... It seems that the set of footprints just now belongs to that person."
"Wounded! Yes, there are!"
The voice inside was a little excited. The other party seemed to remember FrostNova's question and added hurriedly, "We have 15 people here, seven doctors and eight patients. Everyone has mild frostbite. Because the fuel has been exhausted, the temperature in the shelter can only prevent the condition from worsening..."
What followed were some medical terms that she couldn't understand. It seemed that he was indeed a doctor from another country. It was amazing that Mister could find such a genius from the tundra.
The other person's eyes were full of joy, but Yelena was a little unhappy. "I shouldn't have asked you to open the door, right?"
"You stated your identity and told me your purpose... but I really shouldn't have opened the door of the shelter before verifying your identity."
The other person's eyes were quirky, which reminded Yelena of Alina. "Heh - it's good that you know. The situation under the generator is urgent. Please sort it out quickly. Our people may be in danger of their lives."
Lilia immediately turned around and shouted, her smile showing no sign of hiding her pride. It seemed that they were ready to head to the generator.
This saves a lot of trouble.
FrostNova turned around and recruited the other three members of the Yeti squadron to help Lilia and the others carry the wounded and resources.
She stood beside FrostNova. She felt that the weather seemed to be much colder, and this coldness could even penetrate her bones through her clothes... When did the winter in Ursus become so terrible?
"Do you feel that the weather has become much colder? And the coldness is strange and indescribable."
Yelena revised at Lilia. It was normal for her to feel particularly cold since she was too close to him. She moved a few steps away without leaving a trace. "You have another person. Where is he?"
From the mountain came the voice of Big Bear, "Sister! Sister! I brought that man back!"
Behind the big bear was a white Feline, who looked very tired. She greeted FrostNova but looked at Lilia. Anto's eyes were complicated, but more of pity.
FrostNova guessed that the two had a close relationship, or at least were good friends, but why was the other party so worried about the brown feline beside her?
The arrival of the scout team is a good thing.
"Hello, I'm Dr. Anto from Rhodes Island. The one next to you is my accompanying physician, Lilia."
"Captain of the Steel and Fire City Scouting Team, FrostNova."
She doesn't need sympathy.
"They must have had their precarious days."
"Go to the mountain to contact the Rhodes Island ship... that's our old host, but unfortunately, we haven't been able to contact them."
Anto smiled bitterly, "Yes, Lilia, let's go save them."
The two of them were serious about "saving people," and FrostNova was more impressed. Big Bear's voice came from the sled, "All people and resources have been settled! Big sister!"
"We can talk about other things on the way, both of you."
She got back into the sled and asked the two to get into the bucket car at the back,
"It's time for us to set off."
Under the generator, the sawmill has been built. The Yeti squadron surrounds the two completed sawmills. The huge turntable was connected to a wooden pole, which was in turn connected to a sharp blade. It seemed to be used to process wood.
Next to the structure used to process the wood is a house with a high base, which is equipped with axes and saws for logging. The members of the Yeti squadron thought about it and concluded that they would send people to cut down the wood first and then use this machine to process it.
This can indeed save a lot of effort.
Alina added, "This was a joint decision by Mr. Generator, Talulah, and Mr. Patriot."
The Yeti Squadron had been planning to persuade Alina again, but when they heard that these three had made the decision together, they knew that the matter was set in stone, and no matter how eloquent they were, they could not change the candidates for the sawmill positions.
Petrova raised her eyebrows and looked at the member of the Yeti team who asked the question, "Don't be stupid, that's a 24-hour job, even camels don't work like that.
Do you want to be exhausted to death?"
Build two more?
The Yeti squadron rushed into the storage warehouse and soon arrived at the planned location. Alina took out the blueprint again and began to direct everyone to build a sawmill.
Talulah brought the twenty-one newly infected people to the sawmill. According to Mister's instructions, ten workers were arranged in one sawmill. After the arrangements were completed, there was just one more person.
Leaving this extra person aside for the moment, Talulah asked these infected people to gather in front of the sawmill. A burst of cursing and laughter came from the woods under the rock wall not far away. The members of the Yeti squadron were building a new sawmill.
The infected people were talking about work. When talking about work, some of them recall the days in the mine and couldn't help asking, "Will this job pay us?"
The surprise on their faces was within her expectations. "But here, we will let you have enough food, warm clothes, and a warm enough room. Because the storm just ended, we can only let you have hot food for now."
"We will work hard!"
Talulah looked at the smiling faces, and her expression became more serious. "This is a punishment. You must remember it. Don't make the same mistake again!"
Everyone expressed their regret and their willingness to accept punishment, saying they would starve to the point of living in a cave.
"What you have done will be recorded. Of course, the corresponding punishment will also be recorded. This can be considered as an explanation to you."
When the city of infected people rises, this incident may provide some reference and some ideas for establishing order.
Unfortunately, there are constant emergencies at the moment, and Mr. Generator has turned his attention to improving the lives of the infected people under the him. This is a good thing for them, but the establishment of order must also begin gradually.
Talulah asked the infected people to return to their posts. She went to the sawmill and found that there were no corresponding instructions in the sawmill house because the operation was simple and easy to understand - cut down the wood and then process it with the machinery next to the house.
The hut also has a certain degree of warmth-keeping function, so people won't get sick from the cold.
Following Talulah's instructions, the infected people took axes and saws and calmly began to chop down birch trees. Amid the sound of falling, they recalled everything they had experienced.
The guilt for the dead began to eat away at their minds like poison. They silently prayed in their hearts that Mr. Generator had already brought down their punishment and that their mistakes would be redeemed.
They are not wild beasts, but real human beings.
Seeing that everyone had gotten into the mood, Talulah left the sawmill and brought the remaining person to the Yeti squadron. The frames of the two sawmills were almost completed, and Petrova was waiting for the next order.
"This is one more person."
Talulah pushed him to the Yeti Squad and then said, "Put him in the sawmill too and let him work tonight."
The Yeti squadron gathered around him, and Petrova said, "Don't worry, Talulah. Since this brother is here, we will not make things difficult for him."
Hoping not to be tricked by these people, Talulah added in her mind, "When you get off work, leave him at the sawmill. Alina should have told you about the punishment."
Petrova responded affirmatively, "Talulah, the medical post needs your help."
medical post?
It seems that the guerrilla fighters' illness has been delayed for too long and is almost at the limit.
The medical post is set up to treat the seriously wounded. Talulah cheered up again, "I understand. Tell me the exact location and I will rush over immediately."
"The newly built one, west of the northern entrance, is short of people."
Wang Zhan stared at the numbers at the bottom of the screen. The number of people close to death had reached twenty-eight. He could only stop the workshop and call Talulah to maintain the operation of the rescue station to rescue the dying patients.
The scout team still has an hour to reach them, and the four sawmills are put into operation at the same time. If the number of people on the verge of death continues to increase, the other two sawmills will need to operate overnight to build a medical post.
But if the number of dying people exceeds the current capacity of the generator, then Wang Zhan will have to face the fact - the first death will happened, and prepare to issue a law on the disposal of corpses.
