After Ark made the decision to announce the discovery of Sword of Sufferings extensively, the originally quiet town instantly became chaotic.
Some people even make excessive rumors where the Sword of Sufferings deliberately create fake news so that people are afraid. Not only that, rumors about Hades trying to overthrow the new government also spread.
Arguably, various chaotic and mixed news spread among the survivors.
Three days later, the Dark Triangle alliance and the group leaders from all over the city gathered in the meeting room of the Silver Cross headquarters.
In the main place, there were three seats where the leaders of the Dark Triangle sat. In the middle, Julian as the leader of the new government sat down. In the right seat, Joseph put on a stern face. In the left seat, Ark who wore full-length covered clothes leaned lazily on his chair.
"All right, let's start the meeting!"
After saying a long opening, Julian finally began his meeting. He immediately glanced towards the Ark then said.
"First of all, I will ask to cast off people's doubts. So, is the news of the horrifying and dangerous creatures from outside the city true, Hades?"
"There's no reason why I should fool you." Ark said flat.
At that moment, there was someone who raised his hand to ask.
"Then, how can you be so sure that the creature is so dangerous?"
"They're ants, and they're crazy."
"I'm sorry?" That guy looks confused.
"In one nest, there is a population of 4000 to 6000 ants. If left unchecked, they can grow into more troublesome ant colonies to deal with.
In addition, these creatures are very ferocious because they eat everything. Even eating the carcass of his own partner!"
The expressions of everyone in the room instantly changed. Joseph became serious, even more serious than usual. He imagined a moment where the city would be attacked by hundreds of thousands of mutated ants. The man could not help but breathe in the cold air.
At a time when everyone was quite anxious, one of the people raised his hand.
"Isn't that the job of government? Shouldn't you protect us, the people of the city."
Hearing that, everyone immediately looked towards Julian. The man's pale face looked surprised. He then pensively. After a while, he tried to answer.
"Itu—"
"You're not even the people of the government under Julian. You should be ashamed to say such a stupid thing."
Ark immediately said in an indifferent tone.
"What do you mean, Mr Hades?"
The man raised his eyebrows. He also had an unhappy expression on his face.
"What's? I told you, you guys don't count. You didn't even sign up, so you're not entitled to take responsibility from Julian and Joseph.
Of course, the same case happened to me. The Sword of Sufferings themselves had independent territories, not part of the government. I have my own decisions, so I have no right to protest either."
"We are all citizens of this city, Mr. Hades!"
"Can you be nervous about that stinky mouth of yours?
You said both citizens? No kidding. While Silver Cross and Black Panther are busy to build, where are you guys? You guys didn't even sign up and contribute, still dare to ask?
I say it again. Even if it's a new government, there's still nothing free here!"
"Why are you here too?! Don't you have to take care of your own territory?"
"Because I don't want to lose my house.
Sword of Sufferings might be powerful, even in your eyes are invincible. But we are not perfect either.
I don't want to run away and I want to protect my house!
That simple!"
"Of course you don't want to go because you have built a strong fortress and developed many things!
What about us? Do you want to force us to fight? Can't we escape? Get out of this town for example?"
"Of course I can." Ark nodded. "But there are some things you can't do."
Swooshes!
Ark's hand moved quickly, then there was the cry of the middle-aged man earlier.
The man stared at the dagger that stuck into his chest with an expression of disbelief. As everyone was confused, Ark had approached the man, strangled his neck with one hand and lifted him up.
"Since there is a new government and you live in its territory, there is a law. However, your group actually dared to play by the law.
Human trafficking? Your little group actually dared to do that?
Don't joke with me, because I don't like to mess around. So if it violates ..."
CRACK IT!
The man's neck was immediately broken. Everyone stared at Ark with a horrified expression.
Ark himself immediately threw the man's corpse into a corner. At that moment, Julian's voice was heard.
"What are you doing, Hades?!"
"Don't yell at me, Julian. I did it because you were long and too gentle. If you don't follow the law, even if you don't get killed, you're supposed to sanction them."
Ark instantly returned to his seat as if nothing had happened. After that, he then said again.
"I'll get straight to the point.
You all have two choices. Sign up to become a citizen, then move and perform obligations. That way you can live better, but also face considerable risk.
Or option two, you do not need to register. But at that time, you were not considered citizens. You can move to another city or live outside the new central government area.
Of course, you don't have to fight or do things like that. But there are two problems. That is, when the development of the territory becomes better, you can be expelled from your place because you are not citizens and do not have the right to stay. Moreover, even if monsters attack and annihilate groups outside, you have no right to protest and call for help.
Each choice has its own risks and I do not force you to choose which part. Sure, today is also ...
You must choose one of these options!"
Hearing Ark's words, everyone in the room was dumbfounded. Just then, a voice full of approval sounded.
"I agree with Hades' proposal. Although it seems quite rough and direct, but in this way certainty can clearly be determined.
Freedom, or right with obligation. That's your choice."
Joseph said in a serious tone. A stern expression appeared on his face. He glanced towards Ark with a surprised look. The man was amazed at Ark who took advantage of this crisis to quickly unite the government. Make a more solid foundation and progress to the next stage.
Meanwhile, Julian had a complicated expression on his face. In the end, he could only sigh deeply before saying.
"I also agree with Hades' proposal."
The approval of the other two large groups instantly made the faces of those people once again change. I really didn't expect everything to go in this direction.
