Chapter 718: Chapter 649 Traditional Crafts Chapter 718: Chapter 649 Traditional Crafts “Actually, I don’t think we need to do this, when I negotiated with them earlier, they had already agreed to accept us as refugees.”
As soone who had personally gone before, Abyss had quite the authority to speak on the matter.
He had been captured by Tao Yu and taken all the way there, and had also witnessed Tao Yu instantly kill three high-level Demonic Species.
In his eyes, that master who ran off to who knows where, was the real decision-maker.
But Abyss had always been rather timid, and at this ti, he didn’t dare to say anything that might contravene the group.
He just ntioned that Aragorn had agreed to accept them as refugees.
“Just to accept us as refugees?
Aren’t we becoming refugees then?”
Another council mber seed sowhat dissatisfied.
...
“Refugees?
Us?”
Another delegate spoke up as if there was an unspoken understanding amongst them on this matter.
“Actually, if we go there first, it’s not impossible.
Later on, we can find a way to transport more people over in batches.
With the knowledge we possess, it’s not impossible to gain a say among those bow and arrow types.”
Another good-looking surviving politician proposed a rather moderate plan.
“In this area, we are indeed professionals.”
“I think it’s possible too…”
Two hundred years ago, their ancestors had used a similar sche in Arica, and recently, they had indeed used it once again in that indispensible place.
Both sches can be said to have been quite successful!
Now that the original world was suffering an invasion by the Burning Legion, choosing a new world was also normal.
“It seems that everyone has reached a consensus.”
The eting host, Steele, looked at the crowd and then turned his gaze to Holander and the other superheroes, saying in a mild tone,
“So, do you have any comnts?
After all, our main combat power now lies with you, and even if we flee to Middle-earth, we still need you to diate with the locals there.”
“I have no comnts, but we have too few personnel right now.”
Holander appeared indifferent.
After all, no matter where he went, it would not affect his position.
When ntioning the lack of personnel, Locomotive’s breathing beca a bit more rapid.
He had secretly been using Walton Company’s Compound No.
5 to temporarily enhance his superpower.
After the apocalypse, news about Compound No.
5 had actually started to circulate within a small circle.
This was precisely what Walton Company had intended.
Now with the invasion of the Burning Legion, they needed more aces up their sleeves!
So when Holander stated that they were short on personnel, Steele also appropriately spoke up,
“So, I think now we also need to bring the Super Soldier program onto the agenda.”
“So, that rumor is true?”
The politician Nia, who had previously suggested going there as refugees and then looking for opportunities to gradually gain influence, had his eyes light up.
He had heard such rumors before the invasion of the Abyss.
But knowing well the style of Walton Company, he would definitely not take the initiative to bring it up, as it was easy to get silenced.
But now that Steele had ntioned it first, the situation was completely different.
“Yes, in fact, superheroes are all made…”
Steele glanced at Holander as he spoke, knowing there were exceptions, but chose not to detail them.
“However, our manufacturing plants have now been occupied by demons, and I only have so stock left.
“Moreover, Compound No.
5 itself is most effective when injected during infancy, before the complete developnt of the bone marrow.
The mortality rate for adults is extrely high, and the superpowers obtained are random…”
Steele then proactively pointed out so drawbacks.
Currently, only Walton Company had mastered Compound No.
5.
In peaceti, their sneaky injections into infants would’ve blown up in public.
But in this extraordinary period, it beca permissible to bring up openly.
“Thus, my proposal is that all the rescued children should start injections of Compound No.
5, every one of them!
The amount of the compound we have in stock should be enough.”
“Or we could directly inject adults, though the mortality rate is higher among them.
The results appear faster and, if successful, they can beco an imdiate fighting force.”
“Once new forces have grown up, perhaps we can take back the factories, and related researchers are also on our ship…”
Now those demons directly treat all humans as consumables.
If that is the case, then why couldn’t they beco consumables for the Watt Company?
With the Burning Legion’s invasion, who knows how many have died?
If these people were injected with Compound No.
5, who knows how many psychics would be born!
If the proposal passes, then the Watt Company, with Compound No.
5 in hand, will beco the uncrowned king of the new world!
It’s just that her statent about injecting all the children, and her disregard for the lives of the adults in the injections, still made those present feel sowhat shocked.
If it really ca to that, who knows how many would die.
Yet, at this ti, no one in the eting room objected to this point, seemingly taking it as a given.
“Actually, saving so many people is a huge burden for us; many of them are useless.”
A figure dressed in a naval uniform spoke up coldly, seemingly in support.
The refugee fleet, centered around four nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, had supply issues that were a major headache for him.
Back when there was a complete logistical system, it wasn’t an issue.
But now, mainly relying on various excavations, and the transportation by superheroes, and even docking was risky, things had completely changed.
He knew that if they kept dragging on, eventually, the re necessities of life could bring down the group.
“Those who are useless might as well die so more…”
The Burning Legion treats humans as consumables, sacrifices, laborers, transford into demons.
Then we, as our own people, for the future of humanity, to once again be great, such decisions and sacrifices are also necessary!
“On that point, I fully agree, everyone must bring out their value.”
Storm, who had survived since World War II, also spoke up in agreent.
Becoming the first superhero to openly agree.
She is a powerful psychic second only to Holander, and a success story of an adult injected with Compound No.
5!
She is one of the rare World Breakers among superheroes and can also fly and summon lightning.
And she is an extre mustachioed ideologue.
Holander, although lately obsessed with rescuing people, is also quite indifferent when it cos to human life, similarly nodding nonchalantly.
The Watt Company, politicians, the upper echelons of the superheroes, all reached an agreent.
Even if others had thoughts, they dared not speak up at this ti.
Starlight, who had only recently joined the team of superheroes, is a perfect example.
She clearly joined the superhero team out of justice in her heart, but in this period, her illusions were completely shattered.
But at the mont, the team really was still continuously helping ordinary people, with intense external pressure, she gradually overlooked this.
Now, having taken part in this eting and reached the conclusion at hand, she was shocked awake again.
Indeed, these people had rotted through…
…
With the short eting concluded, the delegates didn’t go back right away because they wanted to et the representative from the neighboring world.
But Tao Yu was currently focusing on Tailed Beasts fusion issues, so most were allocated so rooms and asked to wait and rest here temporarily.
“I’m going to sleep, don’t disturb unless it’s necessary.”
The politician, Nia, who had proposed to sneak into the neighboring world under the guise of being a refugee and then plan step by step, warned the guard outside, then entered the room and shut the door.
After doing all this, and even glancing out the window, he quietly took out a green Soul Crystal.
While turning up the music on the record player for cover, he dripped a drop of blood onto it.
As the Soul Crystal absorbed his blood, it slowly emanated a mist, which condensed into a figure…
