Washington, Alexandria Community.
After discovering that Hilltop and the Kingdom had been suppressed by a group of unknown forces, George and his group rushed back to Alexandria. And only when they saw that everyone in the community was safe, did they feel relieved.
Those who hadn't gone out didn't know what had happened. Bob and the others got off the trucks with worried faces, just in ti to be seen by Deanna, who had just arrived to et them.
"What happened? Why do your faces look so grim?"
Aaron, who had accompanied George's group, leaned forward and briefly explained what had happened today, and as the seconds passed, Deanna's expression grew more and more serious. She imdiately suggested: "I think there should be a eting. Everyone needs to know about this."
Nodding, Deanna was about to respond when she heard the sound of an engine from another convoy approaching the gate.
"Quick, everyone prepare! Alert level three!"
Today, in Alexandria, every watchtower was equipped with a heavy machine gun, and the Humvees at the base had been placed at strategic points, while weapons were distributed to everyone. Although most people who weren't soldiers or hadn't gone through combat training weren't used to carrying weapons, they had accepted that this had to be done to increase everyone's safety.
The voice that ca from the gate made everyone's tense nerves relax, and the owner of that voice was Jason, who had returned to Alexandria.
The hundreds of people who were nervous from not knowing what had happened seed to find security in the person they had chosen to follow, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In their opinion, no matter how complicated things might be, as long as Jason was in the group, they would definitely win no matter what challenges lay ahead.
And indeed, when the main gate opened, a modified RV and several trucks with Humvees mounted with machine guns entered the settlent, and through the glass everyone could see the face that made them feel at ease.
...
After fully understanding the current situation and consoling the helpless Jesus, who was already losing his composure, he showed everyone a familiar smile.
"Listen, I already know the general situation, and I'll start assigning plans from here."
"For now, we'll divide into several groups, and each group will be responsible for different things. But for now, I'll explain the original plan."
Soon, everyone received their own missions, including the natives of Alexandria and those from Noah's forr community, most of whom had beco soldiers.
Based on optimal strategies and the will to leave this place, a group of people was selected—not only with skills but also with determination—while the rest stayed in the community. Jason needed those people to make so preparations that weren't too dangerous for now.
As ti grew shorter, Alex sent a hundred soldiers back to Atlanta along with Elias, who at this mont should be leading the growth base as its commander. This was because there were already people who had learned enough that the soldiers' presence was unnecessary for now.
That night, in the conference room.
Deanna's family and Alicia were gathered in front of Jason, along with rle, Jon, Liam, and several other high-ranking leaders. After gaining mutual understanding over the past few months, even though people like Spencer or Aiden didn't enjoy seeing Jason, they recognized his abilities, and thus were present at the eting.
"Alright, that's all for now, Deanna. You'll leave today, and rle, along with your personal escort, will send you sothing. When you et those people, you must rember every word in the file you were given. Maybe they'll question you for a long ti, but don't worry—they won't hurt you."
Alicia looked at Jason with a certain sadness. Although over the last three months their relationship had been rather rigid, personally, these had been the best days she'd had in a long ti. She was a little sad to leave this place, but at least she was comforted knowing her family would be in good hands. She also had so expectations; she believed the Commonwealth was where she could achieve better developnt.
At the sa ti, after so deliberations, Jason finally decided to send two more people to the Commonwealth. It wasn't impossible to have only Deanna's family and Alicia, but considering her two useless sons—although they had been trained for so ti—their foolishness could cause many problems if he decided to send them.
And in these cases, one could say rle was the best person to protect this operation, especially if Daryl was by his side, of course. Although rle had perford well so far, his wild nature was hard to change. It was impossible to determine whether he might have other ideas in the future, but with his younger brother at his side, Jason believed rle would show the required behavior.
In addition to rle, he needed soone professional like Jon Seda. This brother who had followed him from the beginning was perfect for the role. Besides being a good soldier, he had experience and knew things better than anyone else.
For this reason, Jason deliberately sought out Jon, and after a conversation, Jon agreed very happily, which surprised him. When asked why, Jon simply said one sentence: "You're the most visionary person I've ever known."
...
With this, Jason believed these two people would be enough to make the journey to the Commonwealth much smoother.
As he watched a military truck drive away with seven people, Jason's mind quickly returned to Alexandria.
With Deanna's departure, the fools in Alexandria split into two groups. In the original community before Jason and his people had arrived, there were no more than fifty people, and more than thirty chose to join Airo's group and his training, while the nearly twenty remaining returned to their daily tasks in Alexandria without participating in what Jason was doing.
For these people, Jason had a good plan: if they wouldn't cooperate, they wouldn't get a single ounce of weapons, food, or voice of power. They were only workers with necessary tasks to sustain the shelter, and if they didn't do them, they would die in a deserved way.
With this, soone Jason trusted stayed in charge of these people to ensure they carried out their tasks—or else they would die.
Thus, Alexandria's security was left in the hands of eighty ard people, and more than a hundred and twenty who would leave were now gathered at the base. The rest were sent back to Atlanta since their original jobs were required to continue advancing the organization.
All the people were summoned to the square, orders began being issued one after another, and everyone beca busy in an instant, all starting their own preparations. Jason was not idle either—he led more than thirty people and left the base in two trucks.
The group didn't go very far but arrived at the forest not far from the base. Several team mbers unloaded so steel wire coils from the truck and then chose a place in the forest to fence off a four-story building with a radius of ten square ters, while T-dog held the lid of a tal trash can and pounded on it again and again.
The enormous sound echoed through the forest, attracting all the wandering walkers. Several of the undead approached the wire, but they were firmly blocked. Their bodies kept rubbing against the steel wire, the dead flesh splitting open as streams of thick, black, foul-slling blood oozed out.
Whistle!
Michonne raised her sword and struck, cutting off the heads of several walkers lined up in a row. A little blood spurted from the neck wounds, and then all the bodies fell to the ground with a thud.
"Cut off their heads, divide into groups of five—you'll be responsible for the open sides next to your teammates! Be careful with your strikes, don't hurt your comrades."
"Yes, sir!"
With the loud banging sounds from T-dog, more and more walkers slowly approached, but they were blocked by the steel wires. Seeing this result, many were encouraged and began to attack at greater speed.
