Falling into the Cretaceous

At the camp.

Under Zhang Qiming's arrangement, everyone worked in an orderly manner. Blacksmith Li did not take a break. He pried open the kitchen of the machine head and found a flattened steel basin inside. He then began to hammer it back to its original shape.

Then, he threw in the fat from the Deinonychus to melt it.

Zhang Qiming decided to wait for Shen Ye to return before making soap. The lack of showers at the camp would exacerbate hygiene problems, and if an infectious disease broke out, their small group would be far from achieving herd immunity, and they might all perish.

These fats, if made into soap, would have great potential in the future.

Wang Hao spoke ill of Ning Yan in the crowd.

He described what he had done with Ning Yan, how proactive Ning Yan was, and so on, in such a realistic manner that some men believed him.

In the future, there will definitely be some men who can't stand being lonely who will take the initiative to find Ning Yan. Even if Ning Yan rejects them, it doesn't matter. Over time, the lie will naturally become the truth.

This is inexplicable.

Women would also reject her and isolate her.

A woman whose reputation has been ruined is not fit to be the leader's woman. Shen Ye agrees, but no one else will. This is exactly what Chen Yue wants to achieve.

Wang Hao came to Chen Yue's side.

"Things are already brewing, just wait and see, it won't be long before you achieve the effect you want!"

Wang Hao whispered in Chen Yue's ear.

"Then I'll keep my promise once the results are in."

Chen Yue smiled and said.

Liu Sishi had no idea what Chen Yue and Wang Hao were discussing. Under Zhang Qiming's arrangement, she and the others dug up fern roots in the surrounding area.

Lin Ruochu is helping He Yun treat the injured.

One of the wounded soldiers had fallen into a coma due to a persistent high fever. They called Zhang Qiming over and asked him what to do.

Zhang Qiming pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Let's isolate it separately, otherwise it will be troublesome if it infects others. Although we are not sure if it is an infectious disease or a wound infection, all we can do is isolate it," Zhang Qiming said.

"But we have no more cabins left."

He Yun said.

Zhang Qiming knew very well that he couldn't just throw the person out and ask questions; this wasn't about dealing with someone who was about to die.

Rather, it's a core ethical issue for the entire team.

A team that cannot treat a dying person with kindness lacks cohesion, because that dying person could become themselves at any time in the future.

If handled carelessly, this sends a signal to the entire team that people who are not valuable can be discarded at any time.

At that time, everyone will feel insecure.

They don't report injuries, infections, illnesses, or poisonings.

Then, once the disease has spread to everyone, it will be too late to cure it.

"I'll go and mobilize everyone to build an isolation shed."

Zhang Qiming knew this would be difficult, given the lack of tools, but without doing so, people wouldn't feel any humanitarian care.

In disasters, humanitarianism is the core of survivor society. It is the foundation that prevents people from being overtaken by bestiality and the basis for them to believe that order and warmth still exist in this small society.

Others may not know, but Zhang Qiming also understands psychology. He knows that the survivor society is like a beautiful bubble, extremely fragile, and all the appearances of harmony rely on the "moral inertia" of the previous society.

This "moral inertia" is something that is temporarily retained when falling into a barbaric and primitive world; as time goes by, if a new order and culture cannot be established quickly, this beautiful bubble will burst instantly.

Transform into a bestial hell!

What he is doing now is a small step in establishing a new order and a new culture.

Zhang Qiming went outside and looked for some men.

He held an emotionally charged meeting with them to demonstrate his grief for the victims as a leader, while also letting everyone feel the positive and uplifting spirit of the team.

"Mr. Zhang, if we can find my and Ye Ge's suitcases, we can easily build an isolation room," said blacksmith Li.

Zhang Qiming knew that without tools, it would be difficult to create a relatively safe isolation room no matter how many people there were, but going to find suitcases could be very dangerous and could result in deaths.

Although he wields power, he is not the leader that everyone admires. If something goes wrong, he could easily be resented.

Some people below also complained about the lack of tools.

He was silent for a moment.

Zhang Qiming raised his hands and pressed them down.

"Everyone, please be quiet. I can't represent Brother Ye in arranging the missions, but we really need the isolation rooms, so I'd like to start a vote. The minority should submit to the majority. Are you willing to vote?"

Zhang Qiming asked.

At that moment, someone raised their hand.

"Brother Ye has risked his life for us and done so much for us, so why can't we do something in return? Don't you all agree?"

Someone below said.

Immediately, many people agreed.

"We agree to vote, and we can recover more suitcases, which will also solve our immediate problem."

"Yes, I agree to vote too!"

Zhang Qiming saw that everyone below agreed.

Zhang Qiming nodded.

"Okay, if you agree to send someone out to find the suitcase, then raise your hand to vote!" Zhang Qiming said.

More than 6% of the people below raised their hands.

"Alright, we can only send out 10 people. The rest of us will stay behind to guard the camp and ensure its defense. All the supplies we bring back must be stored in a centralized location."

Zhang Qiming said.

……

The situation on Shen Ye's side is not optimistic.

Just as Shen Ye had predicted, the surrounding bushes swayed constantly, and a large number of small dinosaurs were lurking nearby, waiting for the three Tyrannosaurus Rex to leave.

Shen Ye observed the tree carefully for a while.

They had already experienced the terror of the Deinonychus and the Utahraptor. But they had not yet witnessed the terror of the Utahraptor.

Only Shen Ye knew how terrifying the Utahraptor was; its combat power was probably second only to the Medusa.

Utahraptor is one of the largest known dromaeosaurids, several sizes larger than Deinonychus, measuring 5-7 meters in length and weighing 500-700 kilograms, equivalent to an adult polar bear.

Quick-witted and strong-limbed.

Its signature weapon is the sickle-shaped claw on the second toe of its hind limb.

Its length is between 22 and 40 centimeters!

The Deinonychus was a mere junior compared to it, and its diet consisted of ankylosaurs, iguanodonts, and small sauropod dinosaurs!

Their combat strength is evident.

The agent could hear rustling sounds around him; he could sense something approaching. The people in the tree could see it clearly!

Two Utahraptors, nearly two meters tall at the hips, were slowly approaching him. The sound he heard was the rough skin of these two monsters rubbing against the surrounding bushes.

The agent looked up and saw the two Utah raptors looking down at him, with clear saliva dripping from their massive, serrated mouths.

At that moment, he felt fear, regret, and hatred.
