Time Travel: I am a Warlord in Doomsday America

Chapter 138 Betrayal

After dealing with Deacon and Sarah's problems, Zhang Qiang asked An Zhui to take the couple to get some supplies.

Sarah is a baby researcher of the Destiny Army and is now pregnant. Zhang Qiang naturally will not be stingy with precious nutritional supplements.

After the disaster, the development of the animal husbandry of the Tianming Army has been stagnant, but Zhang Qiang still asked An Zhui to coordinate with the Green family to plan to transport some livestock to Macon City to improve Sarah's food treatment.

"Rick. What's up?"

Rick had been staying in the conference room in silence. When Zhang Qiang called him, Rick immediately came back to his senses and stared at Zhang Qiang with a confused look.

"Zhang, I heard something."

Rick suddenly lowered his eyes, not daring to look directly at Zhang Qiang.

"I went to Morgan's camp and he told me that our community was evil and that you were committing genocide and even teaching kids to shoot black people."

"That's bullshit. You believe that? You're out of your mind."

After Sarah left, Zhang Qiang lit up a cigar and stacked up his health points. Zhang Qiang would not accept the accusation that Morgan was an enemy.

"Morgan told me that he saw a little girl at school trick and shoot a friendly black man who was trying to help her."

Rick raised his eyes, as if wanting to know the truth from Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang frowned. This should have happened in Macon. How did Morgan know about it? Could it be that he had been monitoring the Heavenly Destiny Army?

A bunch of plans to increase patrols around the site instantly emerged in Zhang Qiang's mind. Rick's position in his heart was far less important than the safety of the school.

"It's true, it was Alan, she shot a new guy to the Macon stronghold, just because the nigger was disrespectful to me."

Zhang Qiang told Rick the truth without any concealment, and emphasized:

“However, since Morgan told you this, it means he has been spying on us.

Alan's approach was extreme, but she believed that the man was harmful to the development of the collective and was even a spy sent from outside.

You see, isn't that what Morgan does? Otherwise why would he spy on us?"

"When I established the school, I instilled in them the idea of ​​eliminating uncontrollable factors at the lowest cost in order to ensure everyone's survival. Rick, do you have any doubts about this?"

Zhang Qiang looked at Rick coldly. He suspected that Rick did not suffer enough according to the original plot, so he now had the leisure to worry about outsiders.

“No, Zhang… I just think we shouldn’t teach children to kill people at will.

Carl is also studying at school, and Lori told me that he has changed a lot and is not close to her anymore. "

Rick avoided Zhang Qiang's gaze and tried to explain himself, but using Carl as a shield could not completely conceal his saintly nature at this moment.

"Growing up always comes at a price. I taught Carl how to survive. Do you think it's safe outside?

Morgan was hanging out with the Governor and had Sean captured, and now you're questioning the school?

What's going on? Did they team up to kill Sean? Did they make you feel better after your green hat fell off? You're speaking from their perspective now, right? "

Zhang Qiang suddenly got angry. How could Rick be qualified to comment on the school rules? So he bluntly exposed Rick and Sean's affair.

Rick's face immediately turned red. Even though he was already Zhang Qiang's follower, the loyalty of a follower was not completely reliable.

It depends on the common goals and phased interests of both parties. Obviously, Rick has had other ideas during the few days he was away.

A screen of light appeared in front of Zhang Qiang's eyes: Warning! Rick has left the group of followers!

Can you still play like this?

Zhang Qiang looked at Rick unkindly, and Rick's face turned as red as a cooked shrimp.

Zhang Qiang expected Rick to lose his temper and humiliate himself, but Rick was clearly able to recognize the difference in strength between the two of them and remained rational, refusing to explode.

"Zhang, the world shouldn't be like this!"

Rick clenched his fists as he recalled the conversation between him and Lori when they first met again.

Lori thought that Carl would have to grow up in such a world in the future, and she was filled with despair, but Rick was still comforting her at the time, saying that he would protect everything.

But now, Carl has to grow up under a "Nazi" organization, and Rick can't accept that his child has become an inhumane killer.

"You live in a world I built. If you don't like it, you can get out."

Zhang Qiang laughed. He realized that Rick wanted to be in the same boat with Morgan.

This is good. Rick had better contact Morgan more so that he can find Morgan and the Governor and kill them.

Rick's expression was very ugly. He actually had already planned to leave. Many of the school's rules were not normal and were contrary to Rick's philosophy.

Now the school is a completely violent organization ruled by Zhang Qiang alone!

(In the original show, Rick took over the prison and asked the Woodbury refugees, who were previously his enemies, to democratically run the prison together. It was outrageous.)

Under pressure and responsibility from his family, Rick is unable to leave school decisively because he suspects Zhang Qiang will target "traitors".

During the days when Rick disappeared, he went looking for Morgan and Sean, and he actually found them. The Governor and Morgan established a community in the town of Sinoa, and when they found Rick, Morgan did not let the Governor embarrass him.

After a rational communication between the two sides, Rick got the guarantee from Morgan and the Governor that as long as he joined the Senoa community, the community would guarantee the life of Rick's whole family...including Sean.

Zhang Qiang narrowed his eyes and kept looking at Rick.

The escaped Governor is not a threat to the large force of the school, but he is still a small hidden danger. Now Rick's loyalty has declined and he is no longer his follower... These two factors indicate that it is time for Zhang Qiang to take action.

Rick faced Zhang Qiang in silence, and the two were speechless for a while.

After a moment, Zhang Qiang made a decision. He wanted to let Rick's whole family leave the school!

At that time, the drone will track their route, find Morgan and the Governor, and capture them in one fell swoop.

"Take your family and leave. Since you cannot agree with my philosophy, then go out and experience how difficult the world is now."

Zhang Qiang suddenly leaned back in his seat, shocking Rick so much that he almost turned around and ran away.

When Rick realized what was happening, he immediately asked in disbelief, "What? You're going to expel us?"

Lori was still pregnant and Carl was still young. Although Rick already had a family that promised to take them in, he still had many concerns.

"You can't even fucking agree with my philosophy, what are you doing here? Go out and live your own life!"

Zhang Qiang said to Rick impatiently.

What's wrong with this white sheriff? Is there any good thing in the world that doesn't cost a price?

"I'll give you a car and three days of food. Now get out of here. I don't want to see you again."

Zhang Qiang blew a puff of smoke at Rick contemptuously.

Seeing that Zhang Qiang had no intention of making things difficult for him, Rick became troubled. He suddenly realized that he had lost his temper and should not have contradicted Zhang Qiang.

Although the school's philosophy is different from his and Carl will be mentally poisoned, his family can still live safely.

Maybe he should accept everything in school for the sake of his family.

"Zhang, that's not what I meant... I don't want to leave..."

Rick's face flushed again, his anger caused him to have bad consequences, and he was not yet determined to take responsibility for everything.

"get out."

Zhang Qiang picked up the intercom on the table and called the Tianming Army general Rick who was guarding outside the door to "please leave".

There was no point in talking to Rick any more, as Rick was only fit to be his pawn now.

Two tall soldiers carried Rick out of the office building, one on each side. Rick did not shout out loud during the process because the situation was not desperate.

As mentioned above, Morgan promised to take them in, and Sean is living well in Morgan and the Governor's community, he is just temporarily imprisoned.

Zhang Qiang gave the soldiers a task to supervise Rick's family to leave the school immediately.

Two soldiers put Rick down and stared at him in silence. They didn't know what happened in the office, but anyone who was expelled from the school was definitely a potential enemy of the Destiny Army.

"Guys, I'll be leaving in a minute, please stay calm."

Rick took a deep breath and raised his hands to signal everyone to relax. Things had come to this point and he didn't want to cause any more trouble.

The news that Rick's family was expelled soon became known to everyone, because when Rick found Lori, Lori was furious.

"Fuck! Rick! Are you crazy?! We can't leave here! It's too dangerous outside..."

Lori was shouting outside the apartment building, attracting a lot of people's attention.

Rick stepped forward and gently covered his wife's mouth, whispering in her ear:

"Calm down Lori, we have somewhere to go. My friend Morgan wants us to go to his place."

"Think about the benefits of this, Lori. Morgan's community will be normal, and Carl won't have to go out and run into zombies anymore."

Rick's comfort to Lori hit the heart of a mother, and although Lori's face was still full of concerns and worries, she calmed down.

"Where's Carl?" Rick asked softly.

"He's going to take his final exam at school."

Lori seemed to have thought of something, and her ugly expression suddenly became much better.

At this time, Carl had already returned to school with his fellow candidates.

When Wang Zhiqiang received the news and told the young man that his family was leaving school, Carl's face was full of disbelief.

Carl was taken to his parents by the instructors. Alan and others who were traveling with him also learned that Carl was leaving. The expressions of the group of students were very cold.

"Karl..."

Rick squatted down and stroked Carl's head. Seeing his son's frustrated expression, Rick could only tell Carl that this was all for his own good.

"Dad...I don't want to leave school..."

Carl was almost on the verge of tears. He had finally made friends at school and graduated with honors in all his courses, but now he was told that he was no longer a part of the school.

Alan frowned, and seeing Carl's tearful expression, he walked forward and said:

"Why are you crying, Carl? I told you a long time ago that your father is not the same as us. It's only a matter of time before he leaves."

Alan has a sharp eye. Although she has not met Rick for a long time, she has already judged Rick's path and has talked about these things with Carl.

Rick looked at Alan in surprise. Alan's words sounded a little mocking, but he would not argue with the child. He just doubted whether what Alan said was true. How could this little girl analyze the result so early?

"Alan...I..."

Carl's tears flowed uncontrollably.

It feels like being in a flower-growing village where the son finally gets admitted to university, but his parents ask him to stop studying and go out to work.

"Come on, idiot! You are a strong man now! Remember to exercise more and practice your fighting skills. This world does not allow weaklings to survive.

Also, we better not be enemies next time we meet, and don’t let me shoot you in the head.”

Under the ugly faces of Rick and Lori, Alan's cold comfort made Carl stop crying.
