Chapter 262: If You Don't Believe It, Just Leave

Zerg Breeding Ground.

In just two short days, Leiside had already gained control over half the area of the Breeding Ground, making the human survivors here stop doing things that lacked humanity, and promising them that food would be distributed reasonably, not like before, where uneven distribution led to people starving to death.

"Baofa, do you think what those guys are saying is all true?"

A young man with a tattoo on his face looked at a man named Fengjing not far away who was talking to the survivors, and said to Baofa beside him.

"Which ones are you talking about?"

Baofa, who was observing every move of that Fengjing, asked back after hearing the young man's question.

"Of course, that we will be rescued by the troops sent by the Human Alliance. Didn't you see those survivors? Their eyes changed the moment they heard there was still a possibility of being saved."

"Heh, Haifeng, we haven't been imprisoned here by the Zerg for a short time. If the Human Alliance were going to save us, would they have waited until now?"

After hearing Baofa's words, Haifeng nodded thoughtfully and said.

"What you say makes sense. Then what is this for? What are they planning to do by gathering these survivors in the Zerg Breeding Ground?"

Baofa sneered, patted Haifeng on the shoulder with his right hand, and said.

"Who knows? They are bound to be discovered by the Zerg by gathering survivors, but those Zerg simply don't care about our actions. They might even think this is more interesting."

"Ah, the Zerg really have a twisted sense of humor. But it doesn't matter anyway. As long as we are in the Breeding Ground, the Zerg have no other behavior that harms us besides coming to grab a portion of humans at fixed intervals. If I'm lucky enough, I might be able to live to old age. By the way, what are you going to do? Are you going to approach that group of newcomers?"

Haifeng put his hands on his neck, tilted his head slightly, and stretched his neck as he spoke.

"Of course, I like to join in the fun. Whatever those guys want to do, they are destined to fail, but it wouldn't be bad to be able to suck some blood from it."

Saying this, Baofa squeezed into the crowd and followed them as they left the area.

"This guy, what is he up to? He's not usually like this."

Haifeng shook his head and turned to walk into a small alley.

Baofa followed the crowd to an open space in the Breeding Ground. This place should have once been a school campus, but now it had become a wasteland, and even the ruins were almost gone.

Baofa saw a middle-aged man whose left arm had been cut off halfway. His eye sockets were deep, and he didn't look strong, but after seeing Fengjing nod to this middle-aged man, Baofa guessed that this middle-aged man should be the leader of this group.

Baofa noticed that there weren't many people here, so he nudged a survivor beside him.

"Hey! What's going on here? Why did you bring us here?"

The survivor looked back and discovered it was the scoundrel Baofa. The somewhat impatient expression on his face instantly vanished, and he said to Baofa with a patient look.

"I heard these people are preparing to gather the survivors of the Breeding Ground to collect the Nutrient Paste dropped by the Zerg tomorrow and distribute it uniformly, so that no one goes hungry."

"Oh? There's such a good thing? Are they crazy? If the Nutrient Paste is distributed uniformly, there will definitely be people who don't get enough to eat and cause trouble."

Seeing Baofa say this, the survivor said indifferently, "Who cares? As long as there's something to eat, it's not bad. Who would be so foolish as to cause trouble with them? They said the Human Alliance is currently searching for Zerg Breeding Grounds, and we are quite far away, so it will take some time. I never thought that one day I would hear news about returning to the Human Alliance again."

Speaking of this, a trace of longing appeared in the survivor's eyes.

Baofa felt disdain for the survivor's stupidity in his heart, but on the surface, he put on an empathetic expression, nodded, and said.

"Hahaha, is this true? We can return to the Human Alliance? Is that what they said?"

"Yeah, that's what they said! They also said that life in the Human Alliance must be better than in the Breeding Ground, at least we won't have to eat that disgusting Nutrient Paste anymore."

Just as the two were talking, more and more survivors gathered in the open space. However, in Baofa's view, most of the people here were representatives sent over, and among them were several familiar faces.

Just as everyone was gathered together, discussing in hushed tones, the middle-aged man with the severed left arm coughed lightly, and then said in a loud, resonant voice.

"Quiet, everyone! I have two things to say, and then everyone can discuss freely!"

This voice had been amplified by Leiside using Spiritual Power, directly stunning the noisy survivors into silence.

Seeing that these survivors were no longer talking, Leiside then softened his tone and said to these survivors.

"First of all, to the survivors who came here today, our group was caught here by the Zerg, and seeing everyone suffering so much from the Zerg's torture, we want to change some things in the Zerg Breeding Ground.

After all, the Human Alliance's army will come to find us in this period of time, and the things you did before will definitely be punished when you return to the Human Alliance!"

Just then, Baofa, hidden in the crowd, shouted loudly at Leiside, "What makes you think the Human Alliance will come to save us? It's been so long, if the Human Alliance wanted to save us, shouldn't we have been taken back to the Human Alliance long ago? Are the things you're saying not just lies to trick us?"

As soon as Baofa's words came out, some survivors who were already skeptical about this matter began to discuss it again.

"Yeah, if they were going to save us, wouldn't they have done it already?"

"Are they trying to trick us?"

"Hey! Show us some proof! Otherwise, who knows if we'll ever be taken back to the Human Alliance?"

Seeing this group of survivors being led by the nose, completely unaware that they were being used as pawns by others, Leiside couldn't help but feel a bit troubled.

But he said to these survivors with a calm expression.

"If you don't believe us, then please leave. I won't force you to believe my words. It's just as well, if you aren't willing to believe me, then leave. I don't need so many people, it saves me from wasting the Nutrient Paste I brought back."

Leiside was not going to explain clearly to these survivors who were being used as pawns, because it couldn't be explained clearly anyway, so Leiside changed his approach.

Letting those who didn't believe him leave directly, the survivors who were originally waiting for an explanation saw that the other party didn't explain the question of whether the Human Alliance would come to save them, but instead told them to leave directly, giving people the feeling that he didn't need so many survivors.

Sure enough, under this maneuver by Leiside, these survivors no longer demanded an explanation.

Anyway, there was no harm in believing it for a moment. By believing them, at least the physically weak survivors could have Nutrient Paste to eat, and wouldn't starve to death or become someone else's food.
