Chapter 2576 Coercion
"What should we do?"

A man looked at the withered crops, and a group of people behind him looked desperate. There were only a little bit of the surviving crops. They looked at the situation in the shed in despair. This is the best shed. , but the crop still died.

No one here knows what happened to the previous land nutrient solution technology, and some advanced planting and breeding technologies, these things have been missing in this town.

This town is currently still under the control of the Hillman family, but the previous civil war destroyed a lot of things, and some technicians ran away with their families.

There are only a few people who are dying, and many people can't stand it anymore, because if this continues, many people will starve to death.

The current Patriarch Pollock of the Hillman family is extremely cruel. He requires every town to pay something every week. Obviously, everyone's life is already difficult, but if they don't pay, those who disobey will be executed.

Only the town where the Hillman family was located and the three nearby towns had enough food and clothing, while some other towns had become difficult to survive.

Many people are already intolerable to Pollock, but they have no choice but to resist. Anyone who resists Pollock will be brutally executed.

Cannibalism has already occurred on the grassland, and such things are appalling.

The situation has gone from bad to worse, and no one can clean it up.

The people in the town were completely desperate this time. People from the Hillman family just came here, and they will come again next Monday. Many people gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

But soon some people chose to leave, because if they turned in their things again, they would really starve to death, either starved to death or executed by the Hillman family.

But there is such a big grassland, where they can escape, they can't go anywhere.

At this moment, a truck came over not far away. The truck looked a bit old. Many people looked at it vigilantly. After a while, the people on the truck got off. It was a group of exiles. After they entered the town, they He began to look around with the weapon in his hand.

Soon they directly threatened some people to hand over their items. Many people cried and shouted, but they were still robbed of their items. The army of the Hillman family would not come to this kind of fringe area, because it was easy to encounter attacks. , the army is the favorite of many exiled gangs, because killing them can get a lot of supplies, whether it is food or weapons and ammunition.

Soon the group left, and some were shot dead because they refused to hand over their food.

Many people were helpless, and the family members of the deceased were crying and blaming others for not coming forward.

Many people have gone home helplessly, while some have given up on themselves, bluntly saying that they just need to wait for death.

The world is hopeless, and many people think this way.

2pm

In the main town of the Hillman family, a singing competition was being held. Many people on the street were well-dressed and full of energy. The street was also clean, tidy and beautiful.

Many people live very well here, and most people don't pay attention to the misery outside, because they just need to continue to enjoy themselves and survive.

Everything now does not matter to most people, because it is very difficult to live in the present.

Behind the stage is the mansion of the Hillman family, and this event was hosted by the Hillman family.

Because it is still during the Chinese New Year, such activities are very common, and the streets and alleys are in a festive atmosphere.

At this time, in a large office on the third floor of the Hillman family mansion, there was a man who looked young, only in his 20s, with a handsome face and a gentle smile.

Pollock Hillman, he is the 17th son of Alan Hillman, the youngest son, but Pollock killed his 16 older brothers and married several of his younger sisters and elder sisters wife.

Pollock was not talkative since he was very young, but he was extremely intelligent. Even his father Alan didn't know that his youngest son would be so intelligent and extremely cruel, spying on the family throne.

Moreover, Pollock himself is also an extremely powerful mutant. In the family civil war a year ago, Pollock first helped several brothers who were vying for the throne to solve their competitors.

Jumping repeatedly among the five elder brothers, as a multi-faceted spy, he finally planned everything, ate everything step by step, and finally succeeded in killing all of Allen's sons.

"That's the way the world is, isn't it, Father."

In the corner, Allen was sitting in a wheelchair, and he nodded. He had fully approved of the actions of his youngest son Pollock, because he really did not expect to see such a monster born.

Allen was extremely shocked by Pollock's actions. He seemed to be the evil fruit of the Hillman family and controlled everything.

He even violated the bottom line of morality and trampled everything under his feet, crazy and frightening, and now the entire Hillman family is firmly in the hands of Pollock.

No one dared to oppose Pollock, and Pollock adopted extremely cruel management, allowing other towns to support them. Such an approach would only make towns disappear one by one, and the Hillman family's territory would become less and less.

"Father, there is no need to worry about the territory. I think it's almost done. The gods will definitely come out to clean up everything in person, and we will become the supreme beings of the city built by the gods."

Allen nodded, he had almost no strength to speak, but his eyes were excited. At this moment, the door of the room opened, and several wives came in. Allen went to hug them kindly.

"Take Dad back to rest."

Alan looked at the eyes of his daughters with horror, and they did not dare to resist this brother, because once Pollock was angered, he would definitely die a miserable death.

Pollock watched his father go out, and sat quietly on the edge of the office. Looking at the current situation, only the strong deserve to survive. Now it is a huge survival knockout match. It is luck to survive, and to live as before. All the way down are strong.

Pollock was thinking about one thing recently, how would the gods come out of that base and pack everything in advance, and finally Pollock thought of it and let people gather near the base.

In order to survive, people will definitely attack, because as long as they attack the base, there will be food and drink, and hunger will make human beings fall into the final madness.

Pollock has already let people spread rumors that the gods have a very rich food reserve in their bases, and there will be food in the past.

People who are starved and dizzy will only slowly approach the base of the gods. Facing such a threat, what will the gods do? Pollock wants to take a good look at this.

"I'll see how long you guys are going to hide."

Pollock laughed. He knew very well what the problem was now. Everyone was about to fail, and if the gods didn't come out, people would gather in front of the god's base to launch a final attack.

As for what the gods will do, Pollock wants to see very much. Pollock has arranged for people to walk on the grassland day and night. The bases are closer.

Many towns in those mountains have also been completely destroyed due to years of war.

Pollock stood up, he looked at the lively crowd outside, and then laughed.

"Enjoy the last feast."

At this time, many people knocked on the door. They were all members of the Hillman family, and one of them stood up and said.

"Pollock, if this continues, there will be problems. The surrounding towns have already begun to resist."

Pollock laughed.

"Then suppress it immediately and execute the person who launched the rebellion. If it doesn't work, I will take people there myself."

Among them was Kramer, the teacher who taught Pollock all the fighting skills of mutants. At this moment, Kramer couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and said.

"What you do is tantamount to slow death of the entire Hillman family."

Pollock stood up frantically, opened his hands and laughed.

"To be or not to be depends not on us, but on God."

Pollock's words shocked the people present, he told his plan, and Kramer looked at Pollock in astonishment.

"If the gods really want to crush us to death, it will be the same as crushing ants to death."

asked Pollock.

"Then why do the gods spare no effort in researching artificial sun technology?"

This made Kramer unable to refute, and then Pollock laughed maniacally.

"Because the gods want to allow human beings to continue to survive, and this time it is not like the past, but will allow human beings to continue in a long-term and stable manner."

After Pollock finished speaking, everyone present fell silent, and he looked at Kramer and said.

"Teacher, you should be more aware of the affairs of the gods than I am, so just watch quietly. When the sun rises, everything on this grassland will change."

Time passed by, the cold began to fall, and at 5 pm, the temperature was already very low.

People in many places have returned to the house, and the cold wave swept again.

Many people are looking forward to the appearance of the light, as long as the light appears, the cold will be dispelled, but usually when the temperature drops too much at night, the light will appear, but now it still does not appear.

In the territory of the Angus family, Tuke stood on the city wall, just like his father often did back then, and Avano beside him was already 10 years old.

Tu Ke felt uneasy in his heart, because recently he heard the news that there were rumors that there was a large amount of food stored in the base of the gods, and as long as they went there, they could be saved.

Although I don't know who spread such rumors, Tuke knows that things are definitely not simple. Now there are only 7 towns left in the Angus family, and the food consumption has long been greater than the output, and a lot of food in stock has been almost eaten up.

In the past few years, due to the war, the food production has been unstable.

The worst time is coming on this grassland, and many people now know that survival is everything.

The Angus family can no longer stand the war, but in the face of the alliance of some small and medium-sized families, the Angus family must restrain them, otherwise they will definitely show their fangs.

Naturally, there are other big families instigated behind this, everyone is holding on, and whoever can't hold on first will be out early.

"Father, what should we do now?"

Avano asked, Tuke smiled and shook his head.

"It's okay, Avano, you can study at ease. You don't like creating inventions very much, so you have to focus on studying. Our family will hold on. As long as you continue to hold on, the gods will definitely come out."

Avano was still a little worried, but under the current situation, he couldn't calm down and study at all.

Avano's grades are very good, Tuke is very proud, his son always has some whimsical ideas, and is extremely interested in inventions and creations.

Seeing that his son was still a little uncomfortable, Tooke encouraged him.

"You can change everything only if you study hard. What this prairie lacks most is scientists. Avano studies hard. No matter what happens, I will try my best to keep the Angus family going."

Avano looked at his thin father. Recently, he often saw his father in a daze, and often got up at night. His health was not good, and he had been ill a while ago.

At this moment, a member of the army ran up, and he said with a solemn face.

"A grain field on our eastern edge has been attacked, our past grain land has been destroyed."

In an instant Tuke coughed violently, and he asked angrily.

"How many people did you send to guard?"

The army man lowered his head and said.

"Only about 200 people were sent. The other party planned it premeditatedly. The number was several times larger than ours. They robbed all the food and destroyed the fields."

Tuke slapped the handrail on the edge of the city wall. He was completely angry now. They just robbed the food and destroyed the farmland. Don't they know how important a mature farmland is for survival?
"Track it down for me right away. If you find them, you must deal with them."

The people in the army seemed a little embarrassed. After a while, Tuke calmed down. He also knew that it would be too difficult to track down, because there were exile gangs all around the territory, and he didn't know who did it.

But Tuke knew that there must be some family members behind him. Immediately Tuke asked his son to go back, and then went directly to the military headquarters. Tuke called some commanders and said directly.

"In the future, we will open fire directly when encountering people approaching our territory, no matter who they are, there is no need for warning."

Many people nodded in acquiescence. The current situation is like this. Some mutants disguised as hungry people came over and suddenly launched an attack. The Angus family's army has already been damaged by such a sudden attack. Too much.

Most people have broken through the bottom line of being human. They no longer believe in anything. The only thing they believe in is the weapons in their hands and the food they can see.

At this moment, Tu Ke felt extremely sad in his heart. The situation had deteriorated to such an extent in just one year after his father's death. The last moment of this grassland was coming far sooner than Tu Ke thought.
