My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 636

Chapter 636: Great King Mountain, the Abandoned Bloody Territory! Part 2

After making simple arrangements, the team of a hundred people instantly got to work. Some went to wash up, some prepared the meal, and the rest inspected their equipment.

Meanwhile, Su Mo, who was free, went toward the small division of the cave where the laborers lived to look for the tall woman, Liu Jiao, who was deep in her thoughts, sitting in the corner.

“I’m going to set out toward the Great Mountains’ center, where Origin Territory is located. The best-case scenario is that I’ll be back to bring you all to my territory in ten days. In the worst-case... You might have to stay here for about a month before I return.

“The resources seized from the cave are limited, but I won’t be taking them with me. It should be enough for you and the rest until I’m back.

“I’m assigning the resources management, the twenty-five people who supported you, and the twenty-three prisoners to you. You’ll be responsible for the daily affairs and resource delegation while I’m gone.

“Also, since you’re a woman and it would be hard for you alone if you encounter trouble or run into difficult situations while staying in this cave, I’m leaving three soldiers to help you maintain the order. They are armed with guns and are highly trained in martial arts. You can take this as a chance to train your management skills so that when you return to our territory, you could quickly adapt and take on a leadership position...”

Su Mo went straight to the point.

He did not hide his destination and directly shared the information that he had to leave.

Liu Jiao seemed to have already predicted that he had to leave, and she merely nodded obediently, not showing much emotional fluctuation.

Su Mo was delighted with her response and subconsciously gave a few more pieces of advice.

...

“You don’t need to waste time persuading those who are determined not to follow me after I leave. Some people are destined not to follow the same path. Let them go if they want to leave.”

“Those who are still wavering and are hesitant, you can go ahead trying to make them join you if you have the ability and time. After all, it’s not that they do not believe me but are just afraid of being deceived again.”

In the end, Su Mo even showed some compassion.

It was not because he had become soft-hearted toward these people, but he recognized that those still hesitant were just ordinary people with poor fates.

This could be observed from their reaction the night before.

The fragrance of the meal spread throughout the cave when the soldiers had a feast in the cave and rewarded everyone.

Almost instantly, those who were initially determined to leave shamelessly approached and tried to humbly beg for some food.

However, none of those wavering came forward and just watched from a distance. There was evident envy and regret in their eyes as they watched the food being served.

Between the two groups of people, there was a clear difference that could be seen.

Although Su Mo did not have time to persuade them to join him, he could pass the opportunity to Liu Jiao to convince them.

He wanted her to exercise her leadership and communicating abilities and temporarily maintain order within the cave after the team left.

“Uhm...ahh!”

Liu Jiao’s emotionless face flashed with a hint of joy, and her eyes shone brightly as Su Mo brought up her heart’s concerns.

Compared to the scars on her face and the bloodstains on her body, her outer appearance could not hide the beauty that radiated from within her heart.

Su Mo glanced at the worn face that would make even a child have nightmares, and his smile widened.

He could see hints of his sister, Su Chan, through Liu Jiao.

Besides the fact that Liu Jiao was obviously more mature than Su Chan, they shared the same kindness and resilience.

This kind of personality would inevitably suffer in modern society and the doomsday wasteland, making it hard for them to survive if not protected by another.

However, as long as a towering tree was above them, protecting them under its wings...

This kind of character would easily influence the atmosphere of a whole community, making up for the people’s worries and uneasiness about the future.

“Do you want to regain your original appearance?”

Su Mo reached out his hand and gently stroked a deep scar on Liu Jiao’s face.

Her injuries were not that serious.

Although she had a terrifying appearance, her physical strength was much stronger than most people in the initial stages of the basin.

Moreover, it would be somewhat difficult for modern medicine to treat her current injuries.
