After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1476

Chapter 1476: Old Shrao Village (Part 1)

Soon, a few small platforms made of earth popped up among a few clear spaces.

Someone rather big jumped from one to another, passing over the heads of the large crowd. Soon, the person stopped in the middle of the mob of people.

"Goodness..." Mao said, whistling. "How many is this?"

Sammy jumped to one of the platforms, using it as his vantage point as he shot. "You’re late. And about two thousand..." he said, belatedly answering the question."

"We encountered a few mobs from that side, fortunately, it’s all village-level," he shrugged. "Also, that’s a lot more than we thought."

Because the mission had so many variables, they naturally managed their expectations. They had already convinced themselves that no matter how many or how few they ended up rescuing, they had already done their best.

Sammy smiled. He was also impressed. By this time, though, he was already made aware of what exactly had happened. "Well, our people made an impressive plan and also an even better execution. Also, quite a bit of luck."

Mao wanted to gossip, but the monster mob was soon cleared out and people cheered. Interestingly, there were also yells of recognition as soon as it happened.

"Brother!?" one person from the rescue team—it was someone from Bright—gasped as he saw one of the ’ill’ Terrans.

The aforementioned sick Terran didn’t seem very sick at all, especially when he ran to his brother and hugged him like a koala.

"BROTHER!"

The one exclamation woke everybody up, and they started looking for their own friends and family. With the density of the people, it was bound to be chaotic. Luckily, the soldiers were prepared for it.

Mao took out a solar-powered sound amplifier from his space and, from the earth platform he was standing on, yelled for everyone to get in line.

"OKAY CALM DOWN! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO RELAX IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOREST WITH BLOOD OF MONSTERS POOLING ON THE GROUND?"

He smiled when there was silence. "Don’t worry! There’s somewhere we can look for friends and family.

"We have a nice rest stop not too far from here, you see." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

...

A few hours later, after a bit of trekking, the massive group arrived at the site of the Old Shrao Village. ¹

As they saw the walls, some people wondered if this was their new home, though most remembered that the rescuers referred to it as a ’rest stop’.

No one could really think too much at this juncture though. They were all exhausted, tired, and uncomfortable. They were expecting a cave as a rest stop, and they wouldn’t mind it. They just want to sit down somewhere!

It was just that they felt a strong aura and shivered unconsciously.

They soon saw the source amongst the few people there to greet them at the entrance. It was Obi, and on his side was Leez, who was serving as his assistant.

They weren’t doing anything in particular, but they had just been clearing some monsters around, so the bloodlust was still fresh. For a village, using them as mob clearers was a bit of an overkill, though.

Although the expectations were not too high in terms of the number of people they’d rescue, the Elders still opted to prepare as if they’d get thousands.

Fortunately, this wasn’t a problem because many rescuers—particularly those from affiliated villages eager to recruit—were very happy to lend them some copper in exchange for goodwill (and maybe become the priority choice).
