Doomsday Calendar Month 4 Day 29. It was the second day after the snow disaster and the 118th day since humans descended on the wasteland.

It was a time when humans would become lively in an age of civilization.

Countless workers would begin to prepare to travel during the upcoming holidays, whereas students looked forward to a good rest and having fun gaming during the long vacation.

Meanwhile, merchants would excitedly wait to sell the inventory they had prepared and earn themselves a fortune.

However, everything was different in the doomsday wasteland!

Most people had long forgotten commemorative holidays in the past four months of surviving in the wasteland.

People gradually left behind the festivals and lifestyles they had on Earth due to the pressure of survival.

Even when they fell asleep and dreamt about their past lives, the past all felt like it was a made-up dream.

…

Heaven’s Origin.

The snow from the basin’s center had slowly been cleared, and the snow-free circle had gradually expanded. The villagers had diligently cleaned and transported the snow in an orderly manner to the alchemy furnace near the village for incineration over several consecutive days.

The small circle started from three kilometers to five kilometers when Su Mo left the territory and gradually expanded to the current eleven kilometers.

The cleanup progress was fairly quick.

According to the current progress, the surrounding area of Hope Village would be cleared to at least 30 to 40 kilometers, and further production could be implemented without being disrupted by the snow when Su Mo returned from Great Mountain.

However, the atmosphere in the territory was evidently a little abnormal on this particular day.

It was already seven in the morning.

However, from a view above the village, there was not a single snow truck that would usually be busy around this time and not even a single villager, who would usually be scattered around the village, in sight.

The motionless scene made it seem like the territory had encountered a supernatural event that caused everyone to disappear overnight.

However, you would easily see almost everyone was gathered in the village square upon careful observation.

Chatter…

Chatter…

The gathering of thousands of people was not a small event. It would be enough to cause a massive commotion in the age of civilization.

The crowd that stood together, from front to back, whether the armed forces responsible for protecting the village or ordinary villagers who worked diligently within the village on weekdays, were all dressed in simple armor and equipped with various weapons as they looked forward with a serious expression.

The place they gathered was where tables and their small runways were built for celebrations.

Now, it was used as a temporary prison.

About twenty people were locked up inside large wooden cages lined up and received cold glares from the villagers.

“Have we been able to contact the shelter leader yet?”

Li Hu, the current head of the Armed Forces, stood beside the crowd and glanced at Zhang Biao, who ran toward him in a hurry.

They faced the same situation when trying to contact Marshal Wang’s party that disappeared in the mountains.

The electromagnetic interference in Great Mountain maintained the same range and intensity, strictly preventing any forms of electromagnetic waves from transmitting into the mountain.

Despite the expedition carrying a much stronger radio communication device than Marshal Wang’s team, it was still ineffective communication after they entered the mountain.

There had been no news from them since last night.

“No, I’ve already made an emergency call but still haven’t received any message from them yet!”

Zhang Biao’s nervous report had broken whatever hope they had left.

Not only did Li Hu’s expression change evidently, but even Chen Shen and Su Deben, who stood beside him, had very solemn expressions.

The three of them glanced at Su Chan and Moore, standing not far from them, and quickly adjusted their emotions.

The three of them strode toward where the captives were imprisoned with a murderous aura.

Clomp…

Clomp…

Their heavy footsteps were like drums that echoed in everyone’s ears.

The villagers immediately stropped their discussion amongst themselves after seeing the three of them take the stage and the entire area became silent except for the imprisoned people.

“Let us go, you bloody savages!”

“This is a crime punishable by death that you’re committing! How dare you hold us captive in broad daylight on land that does not belong to you!”

“Let us go right now, and we will consider forgiving your crimes! Otherwise, I will sue you until you’re bankrupt if you delay this further!”

“Please, I’m begging you! All you want is money, right? Let me make a phone call, and I’ll send you however much you want! Please don’t kill me!”

“…”

The loud shouts from the captives sounded one after another.

Their voices were so overwhelming that even the villagers standing in the team’s center could hear them word for word in the quiet village square.
