章 454: What's in Florida
"For God's sake, why should we cooperate with your people? Don't you trust us? You'll just give us another stupid questionnaire. Do you think we should trust you?" Emilia showed a look of disdain, as if she was dissatisfied with Airon's group's actions so far.
But after she finished speaking, she was surprised to find that the people in Airon's group did not seem to respond to her provocation, as if she was just talking nonsense.
"Emilia, shut up, I'll speak." Adam looked at Airon's face in silence. He knew Emilia's character and knew that if this continued, nothing good would come out of her mouth, but he certainly wanted to see what behavior Airon's group would take next.
Seeing that none of the men in front of her responded to Emilia's provocations, she felt that she was dealing with serious people, so she took the initiative to speak.
"I only..." Seeing that the other party ignored her, Emilia felt a little angry, but after being interrupted by Adam, she also understood the meaning of his words, but part of her wanted to make things clear to Airon.
Adam, on the other hand, whispered to her to shut up, looked at her sternly, and then looked back at Airon, who was sitting in front of them very relaxed.
Throughout the afternoon, he had basically been silently observing these strangers who had suddenly appeared to help them, and some details that ordinary people could not notice assured him that the other party must be from a very strong and large shelter, after all, it was difficult to find people with such clean and advanced equipment.
This gave Adam an idea to join this group of men, after all, he felt a little insufficient to lead the team himself, and it would be a good way to join a great force at the same time.
But long before making this important decision, he decided to evaluate the behavior of these people while he still had time. And finally, after an afternoon of observations and tests, he made a decision.
"Mr. Airon, we are just ordinary people trying to survive, we have no special skills, and except for Daniela who is my daughter, we are all healthy and strong. At least, we can do something out there."
"Leo is the only one who has spent less time in our group, but I can say that he is a great man who never abandoned us even in difficult situations. As for the others, I can guarantee with my life, there is absolutely no one with bad intentions among them."
Airon was playing with a cartridge and interrupted Adam's words, adding an awkward silence, giving others the impression that he was thinking of something important. He knew that since the afternoon the man named Adam had been evaluating them, but this was normal considering life outside.
Like a clever fox, Airon didn't talk much with these people and waited silently until Adam or someone from his group decided to speak. As soon as the topic was opened, the following would become a matter of routine.
Under repeated questioning from Airon and Glenn, Adam also slowly explained information about his group, including their occupations before the end of the world, how long they had known each other, what they had experienced after the end of the world, and how they had survived until now.
What interests Airon is Adam's experience, and one of the men who is an electrician. Both had experience with weapons, so they were the ones Airon's group should pay attention to.
"So, you were attacked by an organization half a month ago, and now these people have escaped?"
Adam nodded, with a little resentment on his face. He was so angry when he thought about that damn Templar group.
"That group has a branch that specializes in fishing off the coast of Florida, but their main activity is to steal supplies from other people. They were the ones who attacked us that night, and by the time I realized it, half of my group had died. I tried to organize my people to resist, but the enemy had heavy weaponry, so we only had the opportunity to flee to Alabama..."
Talking about this, not only Adam but even the rest of his group clenched their fists, and it seemed like everyone remembered the situation at that time.
Adam quickly realized that something was wrong with him and adjusted himself a little before continuing. "I escaped with the remaining seven people, but since it was night, I lost three more people on the way. Not long ago, a huge tide of walkers blocked our way, so we had to take really dangerous paths. Fortunately, Leo was there with climbing equipment and saved us."
"We had exhausted our supplies two days ago, and we had to wait for death if we continued to hide, but we were surrounded by thousands of walkers, so we had to force our way out of there. Alex was the one who helped us the most and was injured due to the misuse of two grenades."
Upon hearing this group's story, Airon's thoughts fell on that organization in Florida. Many in the room knew they were lucky to have joined the S.C.T. and that the leader of that organization was someone reasonable.
At that moment, the door of a bedroom opened, and Bob came out: "Airon, I finished the job."
"Well done, Bob..."
Adam immediately stood up after hearing that and looked at Bob: "Sir, how is Max?"
"Some shrapnel went through his body but didn't hit any organs. He lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss, but that has been resolved."
"Thank you very much!" Adam was extremely grateful.
"You can visit him now!"
Emilia looked at Airon and sincerely apologized and then entered the room where Alex was.
"By the way, Adam..." Airon stopped the man and asked him directly: "How many people are in that community in Florida?"
"About twenty thousand, many joined that group as they escaped to the sea when all this started..."
"I understand..."
...
"What do you think?"
"I think it's credible..."
"What Adam said is basically consistent with his previous actions. At least the other party should not have lied..."
"Very well, then I will invite him to join our organization, and we will also plan what to do with that Florida community..."
