The disturbances in the mine were quickly quelled when rkel showed up with her crew. Upon seeing the fallen mineworker slaves, the Hexagon trembling in the shadow ore, and the two Red Devils just getting up from the ground, rkel was sowhat unclear about the current situation.
At that mont, Moron hurried over, bowing and nodding to rkel, saying, "I'm truly sorry, Lord rkel! I hope I didn't frighten you?!
"How many tis have I told you not to call 'Lord'?" rkel sighed and turned to Moron, asking, "What exactly happened? How did the Shadow Vine suddenly erupt?"
Moron rolled his eyes, then assud a furious expression and said, "There was a Shadow Monster that refused to follow orders and intended to disrupt production. After I discovered it, it kept making excuses. I tried to take it back to prevent it from hindering the work of other groups, but it ran away as soon as it had a chance..."
"I chased it near the Shadow Ore, it bolted straight in, deliberately provoking the Shadow Vine, with intentions of killing us all. Lord rkel, you must stand up for us!"
Moron assud a sorrowful expression, saying, "You had just finished assigning work today. I was going to follow your arrangent of production tasks. Then this troublemaker created this ss. There's a chance he is dissatisfied with your grouping arrangent, and thereby intends to hold us back!"
"I understand that you are very busy with many tasks waiting for your arrangent. We'll get it out of here imdiately, the third team always knows the importance of unity. We will surely take it back and educate it thoroughly..."
Moron deliberately used many terms that rkel had used before, such as production, unity, work arrangent, etc. These terminologies are quite unusual in 'Hell'. Moron believed it was a better approach to gain trust from rkel by showing that he took her teachings seriously.
However, even though rkel was an action agent, she had undergone formal ideological education. She could tell instantly that Moron hadn't changed his mindset at all, so she knew that she couldn't completely trust Moron's words.
"Alright, I understand. You go back first, and I'll take this Shadow Monster back to the headquarters. If it's dissatisfied with the work arrangent, I'll transfer it to another group. If it wants to disrupt production, I'll educate it."
After rkel finished speaking, she was about to approach the Shadow Ore. Moron panicked. He knew that the Shadow Monster had heard his plan, and as far as he was concerned, the plan was absolutely confidential because it needed to be unexpected in order to be successful.
"Wait, Lord rkel! The Shadow Vine is unstable right now. There might be danger if you approach. Let us handle it!" Struck with a smart thought, Moron stepped forward to block rkel's path. Then he turned around with his daggers and approached the Shadow Ore.
Batman, who was witnessing all this from a perspective of God, furrowed his brows even deeper because he knew that the bodies of Shadow Monsters were very delicate. Furthermore, they had fatal weaknesses such as the eyeball located in the center of their tentacles. This critical organ was their core. One attack would be enough to kill the pitiful Shadow Monster.
rkel glanced at the still twitching Shadow Vine and seed to think it's not a good idea to approach abruptly. She was oblivious to what exactly the Red Devils were planning. However, she felt that it would be good to let them take out the frightened Shadow Monster first. After all, if the Shadow Vine went wild again, all worker slaves here could be in danger.
Batman, bound to a stone pillar, was struggling constantly. Upon seeing no results, he turned to Shiller and said, "Lower down."
"Are you trying to save him?" asked Shiller, looking up, "Want to save your pitiful friend?"
"But, Batman, have you ever considered," Shiller turned to Batman and asked, "that these two Red Devils might be the just ones?"
"Sure, their intentions are not pure, and they want to kill you because they want to be the boss, but in a way, their plan is exactly what we want to see. Do you know why?"
Shiller raised his head, looking around the interior of the mine. His gaze seed to pierce the mountainside, reaching the dense fog in the Hell Sky. He began, "The ones oppressed are not only burdened by the mine, but also by you."
"You, Batman, the new mine owner, the new general, the hero who rescues them from distress, but at the sa ti, the enemy of all proletariats, the exploiter, the mountain weighing on the people's shoulders."
Shiller looked into Batman's eyes and said, "The cunning and foolish Red Devils are the true heroes, while you are the Evil Dragon."
"Whatever resistance the proletariat wields against the bourgeoisie who exploits and oppresses them is reasonable and necessary. Regardless of the purpose of launching such resistance, it doesn't matter what they plan to do to you."
Shiller said clearly and slowly, "Any capitalist that possesses excessive productive resources, any vampire that extracts the labor value of workers, any Devil that exploits a worker's labor force will be brought to justice."
"So, you should understand why we never discuss these issues with you. There is no room for negotiation between the proletariat and the capitalists."
"If we were willing to accept negotiations, to play by the rules of the card table like those weaklings, then there would have been no need to raise the banner that year in October. But now that we have raised the flag, it's a fight to the death."
