Chapter 129 Going Out

Lu Jiayi's words hit Diana's heart like a heavy hammer. She didn't want to admit it, but it was true.

However, Diana still had some other thoughts in her mind. After all, they had been living here safely for a year, and there were not a large number of zombies and survivors around. Otherwise, they would not have recruited new members for so long. .

But Diana also agreed with Lu Jiayi's point of view. She thought for a while and said: "Lu, in fact, I have already realized this problem. When you came here today, Allen was about to go out. His mission was to find the right person." Survivors. As I just said, we have stayed in the wall for too long, and the less we are exposed to other people, the stranger we feel to the outside world.”

"So we are eager to find some people who have struggled outside to teach us how to survive. I am just a politician. What I can do is bring stability to this community, but you are different!"

"Lu, I hope you can bring us some changes so that we can continue to survive in this apocalypse."

Listening to Diana's sincere words, Lu Jiayi felt a little disapproving in his heart. Alexander did need to change, but most of what this change brought about was the disgust and rejection of these people, including Diana herself, the change in her perception and herself. The goals they want to achieve are very different. Thinking of this, Lu Jiayi said pointedly.

"Diana, changing this place will mean a huge change in your lifestyle. Are you sure this is what you want?"

Diana remained silent, knowing that she had no idea what she was saying, so she might as well point it out directly.

"Now Alexandria is like an isolated village during the war. Do you think it would be a comfortable thing for this village to get used to the rhythm of war?"

This description made Diana instantly understand her current image. To be honest, it made her a little uncomfortable. She felt that Lu Jiayi described them as too fragile.

Looking at Diana's expression, Lu Jiayi knew that this matter would not be clear for a while, so he simply changed the topic.

"I have a lot of things to do next, and I will go out often. If you don't believe what I say, you can choose a few people who are willing to go out and act with us. Then you will understand what I mean."

Diana lowered her head and thought for a moment, then nodded and stood up. She reached out and shook Lu Jiayi's hand.

"I'll need to think it over, but thanks for the advice."

"Of course, you're welcome."

Watching Diana leave, Daryl and Michonne silently walked to Lu Jiayi's side. Michonne suddenly said: "Diana is a good person, but these people are really too weak!"

"Hey, these guys are simply lucky. It's good to be able to hold on for a few days outside."

In fact, Lu Jiayi has no good impressions of some people in Alexandria. In the original drama, it was only after Rick seized power that it became a normal community. There are many weird people here, including Diana's two good-for-nothing sons and a domestically violent man. Peter, timid Nicholas, spiny-headed Adrian and so on.

Of course, there are many good people, but they just lack the experience of the apocalypse. Once these people are trained, they will have full combat power, but they are still far from it.

Speaking of which, I have to mention a huge bug in the original show, which is the search operation of Alan and Eric. When they contacted Rick, the timeline in the show had passed almost two years. The dialogue between the two parties can It sounds like they have been searching for survivors for a long time. Their two ostentatious white cars wander outside every day, and they also have advanced monitoring equipment, but they haven't noticed any of the many settlements in the surrounding area? Moreover, the direction of their search was not around Alexandria, but an area hundreds of kilometers south of Washington. This was outrageous!

If I had to force an explanation, it would be that these two people only searched far away places and were indifferent to the situation around them. This obviously does not make sense. It can only be said that the official did not allow them to find them, that is, they were walking under the nose. I couldn't see each other in the past.

Lu Jiayi turned around, clapped his hands, and shouted to the people in the car: "Everyone, come here, and I will talk about the next arrangements."

Since discovering his strange ability, Lu Jiayi began to consider one thing, that is, whether it is necessary to continue to stay in Virginia. With this ability, the problem of the lack of survivors that he was worried about has been solved. The wall compound is more suitable for facing crises.

After thinking about it, Lu Jiayi still couldn't let go of the people in the original drama. These were the only ones left. All he had to do was spend some time arranging the acquaintances here, and then find a way to take them away, so that he could devote himself to into the rhythm of development.

Thinking of this and looking at the people who had already come over, Lu Jiayi began to arrange the next tasks.

…

Three days later.

Lu Jiayi gave the team members three days off to let everyone have a good rest. Everyone was very tired along the way, and they would be busy for a long time. Once the planning started, he didn't know how long it would take.

Diana convened two meetings with all members of Alexander in the past three days, but Lu Jiayi didn't care about this. The team members still trained and rested every day.

Lu Jiayi, who was leading everyone in the morning exercise, glanced aside from the corner of his eye and saw Diana walking to the side. There were several people following behind her. Lu Jiayi stopped what he was doing and walked towards her.

"Lu, I've thought about it carefully these days. I don't think people here can adapt to the problems you mentioned right away, but I still want to try, so can I ask you something?"

"You tell me."

"Next time you go out, could you please bring a few Alexander members with you? I want them to feel the difference between you and me in the wild up close."

Looking at the people behind Diana, he knew all of them. Coincidentally, they happened to be the main fighting force of Rick's team in the later period. Although Alexander's problems were multifaceted, he was confident that these people could quickly Adapt to the end of the world.

Seeing that he had no reaction, Diana explained again: "These are all good people here, but you have to understand that we are a democratic community. It is not enough to just change their minds. If you cannot change the majority of people's Thinking, it’s hard to convince them, just think of it as a start.”

As Diana told the story, he just looked at these people without showing any enthusiasm. He knew in his heart that these people were still just rookies and would have to be trained slowly in the future.

"Okay, but I'm going to say something ugly first. Once I leave the community, everything will be subject to my arrangements."

"Of course!"

With that said, Diana turned around and pointed to the people behind her and introduced: "This is Tobin, Alan, Eric, Kenneth, Heath, and Annie."

"The six of you will act together with Lu next. Please obey the command and pay attention to safety."

Several people all nodded to express their understanding. Lu Jiayi glanced over their faces, ignoring their distrustful looks, and said with a slight warning in his tone: "I will only say one thing, follow the orders after you go out, you can't do it now. You can leave now.”

After waiting for a few breaths and seeing that no one left, Lu Jiayi nodded and softened his tone slightly: "Since no one left, you are now my team members. Let's have breakfast together. We will go out soon. One trip and we’ll set off after dinner.”

…

The modified RV was driving on the road. This time Lu Jiayi's target was a nearby town. Heath and the others looked at each other speechlessly. They had already searched several nearby villages and small towns. They could Basically everything I found was taken away.

They have now begun to collect supplies from further places, but Hiss and the others did not say a word. They were not happy to let Lu Jiayi get in trouble and let these arrogant guys understand that this is not their territory.
