“Envigor? Rescuer?”
After muttering softly, Lexie's expression became even brighter. He stepped forward and began to ask in an excited tone.
“Are you special forces sent from the central government to save us? Are we finally safe? Uh! I've really been waiting for a moment like this.”
Looking at the hysterical looking Lexie, Ark was still calm. Meanwhile, Lisa shook her head. The girl was convinced that the man called Hades would destroy the young woman's hopes and dreams. Sure enough, Ark's voice instantly sounded in everyone's ears.
“There is nothing like it.
The old government or things like that have long since disappeared. What you expect will never come true even until you die. If you want to continue to survive, stop dreaming of useless things like being saved or something like that
“Eh?”
Lexie stunned. He looked towards Ark with a dazed expression. After a while, he immediately advanced while shouting with an angry expression.
“Liar! You must be lying! It is impossible for the central government to easily collapse! You guys must be-“
THE PLAQUE!
Lisa slapped Lexie to the ground. Although it was only a light slap, but the young lady's mouth was instantly filled with blood. Don't think Lisa's cruel, instead, she's doing it for Lexie's good. If he doesn't move, the girl is sure Ark will kill him.
“I don't care if you believe it or not. I'm just telling you the truth I believe in. Even if the military side in the central government still survives, they are already troubled to take care of themselves. There was no point in going to a remote city like this.
Saving you? Who are you guys? In their eyes, you are nobody and nothing.”
“You-“
“Silence, Tyler. What this master said is indeed true. We are nobody and there is no reason why they should save us.”
Russell interrupted Tyler. The young man finally shut up, only able to grit his teeth in silence. Hannah looks nervous, she's helping Lexie. Lexie herself did not dare to say a word. The slap given by Lisa had awakened him.
“Are the four of you not from a certain group? Which group is the most powerful in the city?” ask Ark.
“Group? Sorry, Mister. There is nothing like that in this town.
From the cross section, I suspect you are from another city. After all, now it is rare for a group to have more than ten members.”
“It seems an interesting incident happened last year.” Ark said in a flat tone.
“As you think. A big event happened last year.
In the beginning, there were indeed several groups formed in this small town. But everything changed when half a month passed since apocalypse. Many group leaders began to become greedy and increasingly greedy. Keeping things to themselves while hiring a subordinate to the sanpai die without being given anything.
Not accepting with such a thing, the people below ended up choosing to rebel. One by one the group appeared and disappeared. They kill each other to get something to eat. They want to master, and constantly fight for the top position.
It's just, everything changes at the end of the year. The arrival of a wave of extremely terrifying ferocious beasts almost annihilated everything.
From then on, everyone stopped thinking about groups or anything like that. No one wants to be submissive because everyone can no longer trust each other. In the end, most people are scattered throughout the city and form small groups with their families or their own companions.
This has been happening until now, where it is getting harder and harder to get food. I think, sooner or later humanity will be annihilated.”
Seeing Russell's pessimistic face, Ark immediately said in a flat tone.
“All that happened because your leader was weak and greedy. Have no motivation to find a substitute source, but instead scramble for food reserves that will sooner or later run out. Besides, those people are greedy but stupid. Indeed, there is no chance of survival if relying on those fools.”
“Wow! You really curse all the leaders in this city, Brother!”
“That's because they're weak and greedy.
Yes .. although the end is also the same.”
Ark said in an indifferent tone. Lisa rolled her eyes, feeling that the chairman was too shameless to say such a thing. After all, it was the young man himself who ended up wiping them out. Not because of a natural disaster, a mutated beast attack, or anything like that.
Realizing something, Ark suddenly said.
“Rather than waiting to die in this fallen city, what if you guys work for us?”
“Hah?! Who wants to join your group!” tyler shouted with a vexed expression on his face.
“You? Join our group?” Ark tilted his head. “It seems that you guys are wrong to accept my words.”
“...”
Sensing Ark's gaze, everyone immediately felt fear and did not dare to speak.
“I didn't invite you into the group at all. People like you, are not worthy of our group.
I forgot to introduce myself. Remember well. People call me Hades, the head of the Sword of Sufferings.
What I mean by work is actually doing a simple exchange. In this city, there are many materials that we can use and are useless to you. All you need to do is look for those ingredients, then give them to us. Instead, we will give you what you need.
Meals. That's what you need, isn't it?
The Sword of Sufferings can give it to you if you work well. Not only food, we can also give you something useful, such as weapons.
You could say, we were planning to gather the people in this city so that they would look for what we needed. Instead, you can eat and survive longer. If you are diligent and lucky enough to find something valuable, it is not impossible to get weapons and training from us.
Thus, the likelihood of you surviving in the future is greater.”
Hearing Ark's words, the four people looked at each other anxiously. Russell finally raised his hand. After some hesitation, he finally asked.
“Sorry if I doubt you, Sir. You guys are obviously very strong, so why not do it yourself and save costs?”
“Good question. The answer is simple, we are not short of food but short of time.
Do you think the Sword of Sufferings is only 27 people you see right now? No. gabe. There were 25 people in the building. A total of 52 people? Still wrong.
We, the Sword of Sufferings are the most powerful force in our hometown. The total number of members is over 1000, and at least they are as strong as the elite soldiers you know. We made some teams to check other cities around to find out if we could get the materials we wanted or not.
His reason? Of course because we have conquered our hometown. So ... do you guys think we'll just focus on this small town?”
Hearing Ark's words, the brains of the four people felt slow. Over 1000 elite warriors, conquered the city by defeating other groups as well as mutated beasts. That's really hard to believe.
Ignoring their worries, Ark again said in a flat tone.
“We make you all work to make things easier. That simple.
I think this is also a chance for you to survive. Stop relying on others and continue to live with your own two hands. So ...”
Ark tilted his head.
“Are you interested in trying it?”
