Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 124 Ye Gaofei's Scheme
Ye Gaofei took out a crystal.
Chen Luo narrowed his eyes instantly, sitting in the front row, he could clearly see the crystal.
It was a light purple lightning-type crystal, and judging by its size, it was a Level 6 crystal.
Chen Luo couldn't help but feel disappointed; the level was too low.
Ye Gaofei said, "Now I will share the secrets I know about crystals with everyone."
"Level 3 crystals already exist, and those who have used them understand their effects. They are much better than Level 1 and Level 2 crystals. The one in my hand is an even more advanced crystal, but I can't determine its exact level yet."
"The reason Long Yu and Han Ya were able to advance to Level 4 so quickly is because we used this advanced crystal together."
The people below, including Zhao Hai, widened their eyes.
Zhao Hai looked at Chen Luo and suddenly understood. Chen Luo must have used a very high-level crystal to improve so much.
Before the apocalypse, you weren't Superman. How could you be so far ahead of everyone else?
The others were extremely tempted and couldn't wait to possess such a crystal to reach a higher level themselves.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Level 2 crystals are obtained from Level 2 zombies, and Level 3 crystals from Level 3 zombies. How is this advanced crystal obtained? Are there even higher-level zombies now?"
Everyone perked up their ears and listened carefully, while also wondering if Ye Gaofei had the strength to kill such a high-level zombie.
Ye Gaofei said, "I accidentally obtained this from a high-level zombie. It was rampaging in my base, but for some unknown reason, it suddenly died, and that's how I got it."
Ye Gaofei then analyzed and explained why the amount of crystals absorbed and the growth rate differed from person to person each day, and his explanations were mostly accurate.
Ye Gaofei shared everything without reservation, revealing all the information he had discovered about the apocalypse.
Chen Luo curled his lips. Ye Gaofei was being so kind, he must have an ulterior motive.
Sure enough, the hidden dagger was revealed.
Ye Gaofei said with a heavy expression, "There are really not many humans left. Seeing survivors still killing each other, I feel very sad. We should be united."
"It's also difficult for individuals to survive in the apocalypse. I called everyone together today because I want everyone to unite and form a collective."
"Of course, I won't force anyone. It's all voluntary. This collective will be jointly governed by everyone. We'll form an elders' council, and leaders with decent strength can become elders. All decisions will be made by a vote of the elders' council."
As soon as Ye Gaofei finished speaking, whether it was arranged by him or not, a man stood up and shouted loudly.
"Just because Mr. Ye shared this information with everyone without reservation, I know he's a good person. I'm willing to join."
Several other people stood up.
"Indeed, this information is incredibly valuable, but Mr. Ye shared it for free."
"Mr. Ye has three Level 4s, and their strength is amazing. I feel safe gathering with him."
"My strength is weak. I only have a few dozen people. I don't know if Mr. Ye will look down on me."
Ye Gaofei shared a lot of information, which indeed won the favor and trust of many people.
Not everyone wants to be a king or overlord. Some people are self-aware and don't have the strength to become one. Moreover, they feel that uniting can indeed help them survive better.
Chen Luo sneered inwardly. After all this show, wasn't he just trying to recruit lackeys?
It sounded good, the elders' council making decisions together, but in reality, you would still be in charge.
Chen Luo thought for a moment and knew what Ye Gaofei would do.
He would win over those obedient and unambitious elders. As for those who were disobedient and couldn't be controlled, he would find an opportunity to assassinate them.
If a team loses its key figure, it will fall apart.
Just like Shu Yun's group, as long as Mu Tiange was eliminated, Chen Luo could easily take them over by showing off his strength.
If it was really as Ye Gaofei said, with everyone jointly making decisions, Chen Luo would cut off his head and let him kick it like a ball.
Even if Ye Gaofei got his wish, his base would eventually fall apart.
Ye Gaofei really didn't discriminate; he accepted anyone. There were still many Level 1 survivors in his base.
What could they do besides waste food? It had been more than two months since the apocalypse, and they were still at Level 1. It was ridiculous.
Did he have the resources to support tens of thousands of people?
Once the resources were exhausted, the base would collapse.
Who would be willing to let those who dared to kill zombies provide food for those who didn't dare to kill zombies?
Ye Gaofei's top henchman, Han Ya, a Level 4 female ice-type ability user, came out and said coldly, "If you don't want to join, don't blame us for bullying the few when we meet to acquire supplies."
This was a threat. If you don't join, you'll have to give me your bread because there are more of us.
It was ridiculous. He had just said he didn't want survivors to kill each other.
Han Ya was deliberately playing the villain.
The methods weren't very clever, at least Zhao Hai and Qi Lin, such shrewd people, quickly saw through it.
Zhao Hai cursed inwardly. If I wanted to be someone's lackey, wouldn't it be better to be Chen Luo's lackey?
Zhao Hai felt that even Chen Luo's dog could take care of Ye Gaofei's three Level 4s.
That dog knew tactics and was extremely agile.
Qi Lin didn't speak, narrowed his eyes, revealing disdain in his eyes. He took out a pack of cigarettes, distributed them to Chen Luo and Zhao Hai, and began to smoke.
Chen Luo didn't smoke, he just took one and played with it in his hand.
Not to mention that he didn't smoke, he would never put anything given by unfamiliar people into his mouth.
Better safe than sorry.
Some people saw through Ye Gaofei's plan but were annoyed because Ye Gaofei was powerful. They didn't know how to deal with it once Ye Gaofei gradually infiltrated.
Just then, several people rushed into the conference hall with some panic, holding a paper similar to a leaflet, and found their boss.
Everyone who saw it changed their expression.
Chen Luo glanced at it and exclaimed, "Good lord!"
The leaflet described how good Ye Gaofei's base was, how powerful it was, and that everyone who joined would be treated equally and have food to eat.
These leaders were able to recruit people because they could provide their subordinates with security.
Now, there was a more powerful and numerous gathering place than you. What would you choose?
Just because your boss didn't want to join didn't mean your subordinates didn't want to join.
How many bosses dared to say their members were very loyal?
Ye Gaofei was seizing on this point.
But it was also equivalent to provoking public anger.
It was dangerous to do so, but Ye Gaofei relied on his three Level 4s and many subordinates. He was confident that no one would be willing to fight to the death and that many people would join him after the meeting. He wasn't afraid at all.
He was completely forcing some people to their death.
……
The logic got stuck, it stuck me for a few hours, the next chapter will definitely be there.
