Some armless walkers were tied to a rope. At that moment, Abraham was playing dentist, pulling out the teeth of all these walkers.
This was Airon's plan, to cut off their arms and pull out all their teeth, with this the walkers would completely lose the risk they pose in general and then they would become part of his plan to generate electricity.
...
Early the next morning.
Some people gathered in the open space outside. Everyone was told that today there was an experiment related to the future development of the base. Everyone wanted to see for themselves what it was all about, but not everyone had the time so some didn't make it this place.
There are now four large sites being worked on with giant machines and a lot of manpower, so there was a good amount of space in the middle area of the base where people were about to see the electricity generator.
Jim, Earl and other blacksmiths arrived at the meeting point with a lot of parts, for Luca and Artur to prepare other equipment.
Soon, some people began to install it. A large generator was placed at the bottom, and on top was a frame to fix the gearbox. Airon ordered some people to install everything quietly and without pressure. Finally, all the equipment was attached to the machine.
Six walkers that had undergone special treatment were brought in, causing a brief panic among the crowd.
"Don't worry, everyone, these walkers have been processed and there is no danger they can generate."
Fortunately, the daily training at the base has created good results, and although some people have not gone out to perform tasks, they have basically participated in the daily cleaning operations, so ordinary walkers can not generate some kind of fear for them, only some women who have never been outside the base look a little scared.
The six undead had their arms cut off, their teeth pulled and even their eyes gouged out.
The walkers were fixed in their respective places, plus that team that repeated the walker was also prepared so that nothing would tear their bodies apart due to rotting, and a chain was wrapped around their feet. On their bodies, there is a small bell that will make them walk and spin the chain, stimulating the walkers to keep walking until their death.
After the calculation, the strength of the six walkers was enough to turn the gearbox. After several people arranged them, the walkers began to walk slowly following the sound of the bell.
The gears engaged and emitted some crisp metal collision sounds, and then began to turn slowly, and the pace of the walker slowly returned to normal. The gearbox played its due role and the generator below emitted the high-speed running sound.
Jim nervously watched the machine's operation, and was relieved when he saw that everything was normal.
"Look at the readings and check the status!"
Luca was watching the generator power with an instrument, he smiled and put the instrument down after a while.
"Pretty good, about five kilowatts."
Airon quickly calculated in his mind, 5 kilowatts, that is, you only need to build this kind of device around the walls where people normally don't gather and with this the air conditioning problem will be solved.
Now that no wind power generation equipment has been found, it is certainly very good news.
All eyes were on him, as if they were waiting for good news from him, and everyone knew in their hearts that if it were not for great news that would benefit everyone, the base commander would not do anything that would not bring benefits.
Indeed, people were not disappointed, Airon found a slightly higher place to stand and then loudly stated the purpose of gathering everyone here for the people present.
"My dear brothers of the S.C.T., I am very happy to announce that we are about to build our own power grid, with this we ensure two very important things, zero sabotage from the outside world and in the future when residential buildings are built they will be able to use many appliances to cool our lifestyle, including air conditioners, miniature refrigerators,
etc."
"And when Birmingham is completely cleared and sealed, a safe city will soon be restored so that many of you can live just as you do in Atlanta. You know our goal is to rebuild that humanity, and now Alabama is being recaptured by all our soldiers."
Immediately, the crowd erupted in enthusiastic applause! Who doesn't want to live a more comfortable life? Before the end of the world, how many people could stand this kind of thing where hundreds of people are crammed into a small space, but no one complains now, because everyone knew it would all be better tomorrow?
The central base is a place where a lot of soldiers want to be, but if you ask civilians who work on internal stuff, they'd want to be in a building in the city of Atlanta more. But in terms of security, everyone relies on home base as a fallback point should something untenable happen. This is what you want to see, and it's also the main reason they support it.
But one group of people didn't think so. Several people in the crowd looked at each other silently and all realized that their time was getting smaller and smaller and that action had to start immediately.
At this point, Airon once again uttered a piece of news that surprised everyone.
"I decided that in the next month, with the exception of a few necessary posts, all others will be dedicated to the construction of the base. We need to build the power grid and the base dormitories as soon as possible, so that we can start the next development plan."
While everyone was still immersed in the beautiful life ahead, Airon had already taken the opportunity to tell of his next decision.
"At this time I want to announce something very important, as you know the central base has lagged far behind other locations in Georgia or Atlanta, at that location a unique mandate was established where survivors earn points."
"However, our central base management system has been seriously behind schedule. It is difficult to manage the base thoroughly with only a few people at the helm who are sometimes not there. Therefore, the first big meeting of all workers will be held in a week. At that time, they will be taught a new management format. The rank and file will form a government that will collectively extend to all our people and this will lay the foundation for our future."
As soon as the words fell, the crowd erupted in applause, followed by bursts of shouts of support, clenching hands to steady the excited crowd.
"Everyone, listen to me. The reason for setting up this interim government is first of all what I just said. The current administration is a bit shaky. The second and most important point is that the establishment of a government means that the central base has to formulate laws."
"Management methods at the grassroots will be more formalized, which will be of great benefit to future development, and I believe we can establish a new order of peace, beauty and equality for all!"
"Woooo!"
The audience applauded!
People get excited when they hear about equal government, the main reason why Rick is still respected after the great union between communities in the original story and equally why the Commonwealth is so strong.
This concept can be said to be an ideal state of society, a state that everyone desires and cannot achieve. So far it has only existed in small, disinterested groups.
Several people in the crowd also pretended to be smiling and clapping. As the crowd gradually dispersed, they also walked to their posts talking and laughing in the crowd. Only eye contact before they left revealed that several people's hearts are not at peace.
After turning his head, Airon showed an expression full of coldness. It seems that many have forgotten how terrifying it can be in this world, many need to remember once again.
The flies in the dark are moving, but the red Force always remains around Airon waiting for orders to murder all those who believe in a different future.
