Shi Deyuan seemed completely unconcerned. Lin Xian, who was beside him, could also see that most of those on Dragon Mountain No.1 were ordinary people. Aside from the original residents of Dragon Mountain, the rest were survivors rescued along the way.
These people were sheltered by Dragon Mountain No.1 as they fled, while Shi Deyuan and Ning Jing mobilized these ordinary people, training and arming themselves. Although the individual combat power of these over a thousand people on Dragon Mountain No.1 couldn’t compare to those elite convoys, the fact that such a large track fortress had survived until now naturally meant it had its extraordinary qualities.
"Since it’s safe here, it’s just right. During the day, we can let those young rascals go out for a walk and gather resources. Ah Bai and these superpower users and enhancers can also arrange inspections and monitoring. Bringing back some supplies would be nice," Shi Deyuan said to Ning Jing at this moment.
Ning Jing nodded: "Hmm, I already agreed with them while on the train. We are now partners with the Phoenix Society. Letting them test can also help us improve our strength and morale. Supplies are not the most important thing."
Hearing this, Lin Xian secretly thought to himself, it seems the Nightwalker Organization not only contacted his Infinity but also Dragon Mountain No.1. From this, Shi Deyuan must have also received a Red Phoenix Order, though it’s uncertain if he got the Cold Dark Reagent.
Monica, hearing this, looked at Shi Deyuan curiously: "I thought Brother Shi was planning to recruit more elite soldiers with such a large Doomsday Fortress. Why does it sound like that’s not the case?"
"Yes, we don’t recruit actively."
Ning Jing straightforwardly said: "We help those we can; we don’t keep those who want to leave. The crew on this train are like family, all fighting desperately to survive, and there’s no mention of benefits."
Ning Jing’s words also resonated with other convoys, who were also groups of survivors gradually forming alliances along the way, sharing food and drink internally, without discussing benefits.
"And what about this handsome guy?" Monica now looked at Lin Xian, asking with interest: "Earlier, I heard Old Qian and Brother Shi talk about your achievements. Someone like you, even the Phoenix Society would extend an olive branch. Have you thought of recruiting more people to expand your influence for more survival opportunities?"
Lin Xian, seeing the topic suddenly shifting to him, calmly replied: "I don’t need to increase manpower now, so I don’t have such thoughts. Exchanging some other things or buying some supplies and weapons is possible."
His words were actually meant to decline some trouble from those seeking shelter because of his mechanical superpower. Lin Xian knew he couldn’t protect so many people, but if there were suitable partners, he would consider them.
Upon hearing this, Monica lightly sighed in a slightly disappointed tone, teasing: "I see, that’s a pity. Earlier, hearing about your feats, I was completely stunned, admiring you endlessly. I was even considering bringing my mechanized train to join you."
With that, she complained to Qian Deli: "Old Qian, look, he doesn’t even take notice of me."
"Oh, bringing a train to join? That would be great!" Shi Deyuan’s eyes lit up upon hearing it and said to Lin Xian: "Brother Lin, I’d advise you to consider it carefully. This girl with the last name Mo has an intercontinental train, which takes the elite route. The carriage contains automated weaponry, an all-terrain system, and the weapons on board are all automated management, really impressive. Don’t underestimate those twenty or so people on the train, they’re equivalent to the firepower of two hundred!"
"She’s joking, Lao Shi."
Qian Deli crossed his arms and glanced at Monica with impatience: "Tsk tsk tsk~ Didn’t I tell you to drink less? Have you drunk too much again? You still need to ask for their help, so if you talk too much, people might think you’re a crazy woman, and I won’t be able to speak on your behalf."
Lin Xian hearing this was somewhat speechless. This woman drank one glass after another, and in just a short conversation, the bottle in front of her was already empty, having drunk at least half a liter.
Yet, she seemed to become more and more sober, and her speech became much more open.
