After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1631

Chapter 1631: Terran Recovery Team

Fortunately, all three birds arrived safe and sound and quite healthy for the first round. Reddit had not only trained them in their usefulness but also in survival, after all.

For instance, they equipped each one with the beast-repelling band, which was a solidified version of the potion. Its reach was very limited, but it worked well if the enemy was a few meters away. A few moments of a predator pausing was enough for the birds to escape danger.

Reddit and Eagle also trained them in evasion techniques. They did this by creating obstacle courses wherein the bird would be forced to skillfully maneuver through it without hitting a single obstacle. This training started a long time ago, not long after they decided to use messenger birds, so there had been some effects.

Anyway, the first letter to arrive was from Gurnam and Minko’s Northwest team.

Other than the Southwest area, they were most familiar with this direction. Most of the Alterran and Bright refugees were from these places, after all.

They were first to make a report because they skipped a few territories and triangulated to find the others they did not know about yet. The few Terran territories already in contact with Alterra jumped at the chance for an alliance, and they had long sent messages to them to head to Alterra to formalize it.

As for the rest of the villages skipped, it was because they had been defeated and taken over by aborigine villages, all associated with Voumi town in some shape or form.

Before they left, the Elders had debated what to do with the territories they knew had already been taken over by aborigines.

In the end, while cruel, they decided to skip them for efficiency. The process of rescuing people in these places was a long task, not to mention it’d alert people they didn’t want to alert yet.

The most efficient way was to take them to war, ideally get the tokens, and perhaps get the allied villages to take them as satellites if they wished to (probably for a cost).

To do this, though, it was best to consolidate all forces. These ’fallen’ territories were surrounded by Terran territories; why not take advantage of that?

Besides, if they handled the ’lost’ territories first, they feared that they’d lose more in the meantime because they waited too long to be connected.

So, while painful, territories like Diana Village, Juno Village, and Calma Village were temporarily skipped.

Of course, since the topic had been raised, the Elders naturally could not just ignore these territories and a new plan of action was formulated.

For one, weren’t they already actively rescuing people who were enslaved in aborigine territories? Technically speaking, the ones left behind in villages should be no different.

Better, many of them didn’t get the slave status (yet) and were therefore easier to rescue!

To be fair, they should’ve thought of it earlier. However, they had not yet stabilized in their tier, how could they spread themselves so thin before that?
