Minecraft: I'm Really Not a Monster

Dong, dong…

Beneath the county hospital.

Yang Bo, wielding an [Iron Pickaxe], was constantly expanding the scope of his underground farm. Now that he had become the leader of two thousand people, how could he not make use of them?

Every so often, Yang Bo would stick a [Torch] into the wall, so that the entire underground space wouldn't feel so dim and oppressive.

“Brother Yang, the information on the survivors has been compiled.”

Xu Ling walked over with a stack of A4 papers. Hearing this, Yang Bo stopped what he was doing and reached out to take the form containing the survivors' information.

“Xiao Ling, how are the people I asked them to find?”

“Wang Jun has already arranged for a hundred people, ready to come over at any time, but…”

Xu Ling frowned slightly and said, “It's just that those people's mental state isn't very good. It's like…”

Yang Bo interrupted Xu Ling, threw the documents into his backpack, and said with a smile, “Living corpses, right?”

“Many of their relatives died in this sudden change, and they are trapped in this city without enough to eat or wear.”

“It would be strange if they were still in high spirits.”

Not everyone has unwavering faith. People without hope or goals are just walking chunks of pork belly.

Glancing at the large [Farmland] that had been cultivated, Yang Bo solemnly said to Xu Ling, “Let's first win over the people, give them hope, and then go all out!”

Winning over these survivors is actually very simple.

Food, water, shelter, and safety.

And Yang Bo could provide them with all of these.

Passing through a narrow corridor, they returned to the second basement level of the hospital.

Seeing Wang Jun waiting outside, along with the survivors standing in rows, these people were basically around 1.8 to 1.9 meters tall, obviously some kind of physical evolutionaries.

However, compared to the body mutants Yang Bo had seen in Wang Hongbin's army before, they were simply malnourished.

A sour smell permeated the small space of the basement. Yang Bo didn't show any unusual expression, but simply pointed to a room to the side.

“Arrange for them to take a bath first and change into clean clothes.”

He had anticipated the current situation when he visited earlier, so he had dug a large bathhouse in advance.

In their current situation, with water and electricity cut off, taking a bath was very troublesome, mainly because the temperature was too low.

Unless they found a fire-type ability user to keep heating the water.

Otherwise, they might easily catch a cold and cause a series of complications, which would be troublesome.

But the water in [Minecraft] didn't have to worry about this, and after laying some [Magma Blocks] at the bottom of the water, it would make the water extremely suitable for bathing, like a hot spring.

It could be said that it was a complete enjoyment.

Moreover, the water blocks in [Minecraft] had a self-refreshing function, so there was no need to worry about the water getting dirty at all.

Seeing those people lining up to take a bath, Yang Bo beckoned to Wang Jun:

“After they finish bathing, arrange for them to go to the warehouse. Let's improve everyone's meals today.”

The [Cow Essence], [Pig Essence], and [Chicken Essence] that Yang Bo had planted before had accumulated a lot, and this was a good opportunity for these people to have a full meal.

The warehouse on the second basement level was originally the hospital's storage room, but everything here had been cleaned out, and the surrounding shelves were filled with rice, flour, and other storable foods.

Taking out a torch and sticking it on a clean shelf in the warehouse, the orange-yellow light illuminated the surrounding environment. This dim environment had no effect on him, but Xu Ling and Wang Jun, who were behind him, didn't have the ability of [Night Vision].

Yang Bo frowned as he looked at the full warehouse and couldn't help but ask, “Is there only this much stuff?”

If this was for one person to eat, it could even last a lifetime, but for more than 2,000 people, it wouldn't last long at all.

Hearing Yang Bo's words, Wang Jun could only show a helpless expression and said, “The supplies in the urban area are limited after all.”

“If it weren't for being able to catalyze various crops, we would have starved to death long ago.”

Yang Bo sighed and didn't say much. This mess was even worse than he thought. He felt that if he hadn't appeared, these people would have lasted for three to five months at most.

Either there would be a food shortage, or there would be an internal collapse.

Walking to the wall, he cleared a space, placed the [Workbench] against the wall, and then took out various essences and began to synthesize [Raw Beef], [Raw Pork], [Chicken], and a series of other foods.

Xu Ling, who was following behind Yang Bo, had long been accustomed to this, so she didn't pay too much attention. Instead, she curiously looked around at the various supplies.

But Wang Jun almost popped his eyes out. He couldn't help but take two steps forward, and when he saw the beef that appeared out of thin air, he felt like he was dreaming.

He reached out and rubbed his eyes, but the scene was still shockingly subversive.

“This… how is this possible!”

“Where did this meat come from?”

Hearing Wang Jun's words, Yang Bo smiled jokingly and said, “Where did it come from? Of course, it grew out of the ground.”

“Don't worry, you'll know soon enough.”

“Go prepare some plates first.”

Feeling that the amount of meat was almost enough, Yang Bo stopped synthesizing and instructed Wang Jun. Yang Bo then left the warehouse with Xu Ling, preparing to find a place on the first basement level to use as a future cafeteria.

As for the above-ground cafeteria, he wasn't considering it for the time being, mainly because it was too cold. He would renovate it in a couple of days before reopening it.

… …

Half an hour later.

Those who had been arranged by Yang Bo to take a bath gradually arrived in the temporary restaurant.

Yang Bo was very satisfied when he looked at the survivors in front of him, who were much more energetic. Under Wang Jun's command, they once again stood in a square formation.

Clearing his throat, he walked to the front of the crowd and said in a very relaxed voice:

“I think you should all know my identity, your new leader!”

“But, to be honest, I really regretted it when I saw you. You are really too bad.”

“Hardship has bent your backs, sorrow has eroded your minds, and the light in your eyes has disappeared.”

“Like walking corpses.”

“I dare not say that I can save all of you, but I can make you eat your fill, dress warmly, and even become stronger, and what you have to do is obey my orders.”

Listening to the gradually rising discussions below, Yang Bo reached out and pressed down, and the discussion gradually became smaller until the room became silent.

“I won't ask you to express your feelings now.”

“Not to mention that I wouldn't believe it, even you yourselves wouldn't believe it.”

“Time will prove everything I say, and what we have to do now is…”

“Eat!”

“Only by eating your fill will you have the strength to work hard for tomorrow!”

With a gentle wave of his hand, many [Steaks], [Pork Chops], [Roasted Lamb], and various vegetables appeared on the trays to the side.

Those people were not interested in Yang Bo's words, but they had no resistance to these tempting roasted meats.
