Apocalypse Regression's
Realizing Position
The four people could only swallow their words because they subconsciously did not have the right to speak.
Following Ark's orders, they invited six people to come. The six people were men in their early thirties. Those people had gangster-like appearances. It was just that, not only was it skinny, but it also looked pale from the lack of food.
The six of them faced Ark with confident expressions on their faces.
“I heard you guys are the feared ones around this region. Is that true? If true, do you guys know this region well?”
“Of course we know this area well, man. No one knows him better than us.”
“Then work for me. That way, you will not be short of food.”
“Hah?”
Ark's words so suddenly made the six of them unable to respond properly. They did not expect to receive such a sudden invitation. Just then, the figure who stood in the middle and was the leader of the small team said.
“Uhuk! This can all be discussed, man. This invitation was too sudden. Besides, I know that your group must be strong. Of course, if you can give us enough sincerity, we will definitely be a good guide. Not just in this area, but the whole city.”
“Take a variety of strange mutated plants in places you know, then bring them here. I will pay you according to the price specified.”
“Eh? Taking plants? Aren't you wrong, man? We are the strongest group in this area. If want to recruit-“
A BANG!
The person's head suddenly exploded, making everyone instantly panic. Ark himself was still leaning against the tree while playing with some pebbles in his hand.
“YOU!”
A BANG!
Another head exploded. Another headless body fell to the ground, twitching a few times before stopping moving completely.
“I don't care if you guys are the strongest in this area or even this city. To me, you're all the same. It's not even worth being my pet dung shovel.
I don't need another soldier now. In my eyes, you are all the same. If you want to work, you will be herbal pickers number 05, 06, and so on.
I only offered you jobs so you could eat, not to bargain with you. Anyway ..”
Ark's cold gaze swept over, instantly making the remaining four people frightened.
“What are you guys?”
Sensing the threat of death, the four men immediately knelt before Ark without saying anything. They only wanted to survive, so did not dare to speak carelessly and made the young man angry.
“I'll ask you once more. Do you want to work or not? If you want, stay. If not, leave immediately without the need to say anything.”
Hearing Ark's words, one person instantly got up and fled as fast as he could. At the moment when everyone thought that person was going to die, Ark just kept quiet and did nothing. He then glanced towards the remaining three people.
“Because you guys are staying, it means you guys agreed to work under me. So I'm going to ask, do you guys know this area well?”
“Ya, Sir!” answer the three of them in unison.
“So you guys also know where some people are hiding, right?”
“Ya!”
“Then I will give you a simple task to test you guys.” Ark propped up the chin. “Invite everyone to come here. If there are some people who want to come, it means you graduated. Not only do you get food as a gift, you can also start working as an herbal picker. Do you want to do it?”
“Ya, Sir!” answer them in unison.
“Go.”
After hearing Ark's orders, they immediately got up and left. It really surprised Russell and his family.
Just then, Ark's voice came back.
“The four of you are in charge of cleaning this place.”
***
Three days just passed.
It had been two weeks since Ark and his comrades left the headquarters. They don't know the other team's progress. However, team 4 is really developing very well.
Not just getting to town quickly. Now they had gathered around 50 people who were members of the herb collecting group. Although still beginners, they are very easy to teach because they have obtained some examples if there is a rebellion.
The plants they now picked up were just a few simple plants that had a long shelf life. In addition, there are also several types of plants that can be dried. In essence, what they are looking for are plants that have special effects and can last quite a long time.
There are also some tananya that can be directly processed into drugs so that they last longer.
The bottom line ... harvesting team 4 is definitely not small.
Just then, a shouting voice rang out on the lower floor of the building where Ark had made it as a temporary headquarters.
“Please! Help u! My friend has poisoning.”
Hearing that request for help, many members of the herbal pickers chose to be quiet and not to interfere. Even after they joined the group, they did not become more familiar with each other. The reason they stayed was only to get food, and to look for an opportunity to be recruited by the Sword of Sufferings.
Yes ... they still get together with their family or friends. Having a selfish side that can't be changed. Not even covered up.
Some of the warriors from the Sword of Sufferings descended. They immediately approached the team containing the poisoned person. Just then, the words from the soldier made the expression of the team darken.
“Please do not make a fuss in this place if you do not want to get in touch.”
“But ... but my colleague poisoned!” said a young man holding his friend.
“No words but.”
Hearing that, many people looked towards them. Instead of sympathizing, some people had sneering expressions. After all, the more herbal pickers, the fewer plants they could get. That means their income is reduced.
The group members felt quite happy if there were some people who were eliminated. After all, thus what they get will increase.
Just then, Ark's voice sounded.
“I have a poison cure. However, do you guys really want to buy it?”
“Eh?”
Hearing Ark's words, the team members were stunned. They clearly did not expect that such a remark would come from the mouth of the chairman.
“The person was poisoned by eating a poisonous fruit.
Supposedly. The man deliberately ate the fruit. After all, yesterday someone got one and was paid a pretty expensive price. So he thought consuming it made him have superpowers or something.
Yeah .. It has nothing to do with me. The herbs you take are your right, but the risk of poisoning, being attacked by wild animals, or zombies is also a negative side of this work. The Sword of Sufferings had nothing to do with it.
You sell and we buy. That'sallthatis. So ...
Does your team want to pay to buy the antidote?”
Hearing that, the expressions of the team members turned pale. Meanwhile, many people were staring at them like they were making a joke. There have been cases like that several times.
After gaining comfort, thinking can rise to the sky due to luck. But in the end it fell into a deep abyss and became a joke.
For people in the group of herbal pickers, such people were considered as people who were unaware of the position. For those who think clearly. They know where they are.
Those people knew that the Sword of Sufferings was willing to buy all useful things. But they also know whether they can eat, whether they can thrive ...
It depends on their own efforts!
