Varaway's quick reaction and adaptability made Zhu Hong look at him. He was a little more wary of this guy who claimed to be a bartender. Barus seemed to understand the truth and didn't expose Varaway's lie. Therefore, everyone expressed their regret for Fildes 'death and returned to the prison for an impromptu meeting.
First, everyone spread out in search of food and water, as well as power supply facilities, torches, and so on. As these things were prepared and everyone searched around, they naturally found Chris, who was locked in the cage.
"You said that you were a soldier who came to support us. When the battle was about to end, you were knocked unconscious by someone who thought you were a prison guard and thrown here? This really wasn't a good story! Do you know what I see in your eyes? You're a murderer! I won't let you out!" Luther stared at Chris and said firmly.
"Are you that confident in your eyes? Then look at me, who am I?”Woodward, who was the oldest among the Evolvers, grabbed Luther's arm and asked with a sneer. It could be said that Woodward was the most tragic of all posthumans. As someone who lived for 80 years, he was very resistant to American blockbusters, so he had never watched a single episode of the Resident Evil series. He also didn't know what the so-called plot was…Therefore, this old fellow was directly marked with the death penalty symbol by Zhu Hong. He believed that the other veterans hidden among the crowd must have the same intention. After all, a movie was like a building that had been piled up. If one played along the structure of the building, it would naturally be fine. However, if someone wanted to pull out a building block from the pile of building blocks or replace a building block at the last minute, the result would definitely be the collapse of the building and everything would become chaotic!
In other words, the butterfly effect was even more obvious in the Void Mission World! If you don't take the initiative to change the mission, the plot will continue unchanging until the end. However, if you wanted to change some of the more important parts of the plot, it would easily cause a huge change in the plot, causing everything to be in chaos and losing the original context…That outcome might result in everyone surviving or everyone dying! After all, as an Evolver, after entering the mission world, the only advantage was to understand the plot! Thus, he could predict the future and avoid many unnecessary dangers.
Once the plot was messed up, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, the old man in front of him clearly did not realize this. As for the young people, they read a lot of novels, so they had some ideas. Therefore, he didn't support Woodward's decision. Instead, he frowned. Of course, there were exceptions…
"That's right, Luther. You're just a basketball player, not a psychologist. You can't sentence someone just because he looks like a murderer.”Vivienne chimed in.
"Human rights? Look at this place, the streets are full of zombies, and human lives are like grass! There are no police officers or security guards. If you let him out and he kills someone, will you bear the consequences?”Luther ignored Vivian and stared at Woodward.
Woodward was stunned. Indeed, when he saw Luther's actions, he naturally thought of the unchanging ethics and morals in real life. However, they had neglected the current situation. This was not a peaceful and prosperous America, but a chaotic world where mankind could be extinct at any time! In this place, if a person died, no one would look at you twice, and no one would uphold justice for you!
"You're not talking? That means you agree with my suggestion. Does anyone have a different opinion?" Luther looked at everyone.
"So we keep him locked up?" The one who spoke was Ruth, who was older than Vivian. As a girl, she always had more sympathy.
"That's the only way for now, unless there's something that can prove that he's really harmless.”After saying that, Luther slowly walked out.
"Wait, I think we need a guard. This was the basement, and there was a sewer below. Who knew if zombies would crawl out from there?”Varavy suddenly said.
Hearing this, everyone felt that it was reasonable, especially those who had seen the plot. They knew the importance of this move and immediately raised their hands in agreement. Therefore, the old pervert Wendell was arranged below, and the rest dispersed.
After separating from Luther and the others, the Evolvers quietly gathered together again and had another small meeting.
"I really don't understand why you guys are so cold-hearted. We've already reached this stage. Yet, we put a strong young man in the cage and didn't use him!”Woodward complained.
"If you want to die, don't drag us along! Old man, I'm warning you again. Don't try to let him out, or I'll be the first to kill you!”Dahm, who had been silent all this while, grabbed Woodward's collar and warned him.
"Hey! You slob, let go of your hand! What kind of attitude is this!" Woodward pushed Dahm's hand away and shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Old man, Dahm is right. If you continue to act recklessly, no one will save you! And you, Vivienne and Ruth! You should have seen this movie and understand the importance of Chris!”Varavy said solemnly.
"Of course we know his importance! He was the male lead, and he was very strong. Moreover, he knew the way out! Obviously, as long as we let him out, we can escape from this place ahead of time! He didn't have to wait for Alice to attract the people from the Parasol Company and cause trouble!”Ruth argued angrily.
"Idiot woman! Have you ever thought about what escape route Chris knows? It's the armored personnel carrier we were discussing earlier! The engine of the car had been removed. It would take at least a month to repair it! Even if you have enough time to fix it, do you know what you will encounter if you really drive it out? It could be the bombardment of the Parasol Company's fighter jets, or it could be the early appearance of the biochemical zombie BOSS. No matter which one, it could send you to death dozens of times! It's fine to change the plot of the movie slightly, but if we change the plot on a large scale, we will lose our only advantage, our ability to predict the future. At that time, the consequences will be unimaginable!”Varavi rolled his eyes at Ruth.
"What a ridiculous theory. If the Parasol Company really discovered us, why didn't they attack now? The truth is, they don't even know about our existence! If we wait for Alice to arrive, I'm afraid we'll immediately be swept into the wave of zombie attacks. At that time, how many of us can survive with our skills?”Ruth retorted.
"Because they are waiting for Alice! Everything here was a trap set up for Alice to take the bait! If Alice did not appear, the prison would be impregnable. On the contrary, once Alice appeared, it would be the time for the real battle to begin.”Bruce suddenly said.
"That's right, the Parasol Company is waiting for Alice. If we move now, the Parasol Company will definitely not let us ruin their plan. They would kill whoever dared to mess things up!”Varavi said with a hint of blood in his voice, scaring Ruth into shrinking her neck slightly.
"Then what should we do? Was he really going to sit here and wait for death?”the Japanese girl asked timidly.
"We might be able to get a batch of weapons to defend ourselves.”At this moment, Chun Ji-young from Han suddenly spoke. He was also a little afraid. As the youngest, he had always hidden himself behind others. He would often be ignored by everyone…
"Weapons? Are there any weapons here?" Woodward's eyes lit up.
"Don't even think about it. No one knows what's going on underwater. According to the movie, Alice, Chris, and Crystal were hunted down by hundreds of zombies, and Crystal was dismembered…Who knew if those zombies had laid an ambush or just happened to enter at that time. If it was an ambush, whoever went in would die! "Of course, if you want to take the risk, I won't stop you..."
Hearing this, everyone lost interest. After all, no one was willing to risk their lives, so the proposal was immediately shelved.
After discussing for a long time, there was no result. After another busy afternoon, everyone was tired and dispersed. No one noticed that a strange look flashed across Ruth and Vivian's eyes when the party ended.
Everyone consciously went to a cell, which could be considered their temporary room, and moved in. Zhu Hong lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling. He kept thinking about everything that had happened today and everyone's reactions. He wanted to find the murderer of Fildes from some clues.
Who was the murderer? Barus and Varaway were definitely not. The two of them were right in front of him. If the two of them were up to something, it would be impossible for them to escape his eyes. And when Fields died, his terrified eyes weren't looking in the direction of Barus and Varaway. That direction was a corner of the prison house! The gunshots came from that direction. Judging from the sound, the sniper rifle was definitely of a very large caliber. With that kind of power, even if it hit Zhu Hong, it would still take half a life! This was also one of the reasons why Zhu Hong was so concerned. After all, it was a power that could threaten his life! Besides, no one wanted to let a Ghost Sniper hang around them!
From the conversation, Zhu Hong knew that other than Barus, Varaway, and himself, who went to the back door to help Fields, the other six people had run away. In other words, no one saw what each other was doing, so it was impossible to guess who did it.
In a daze, Zhu Hong fell asleep. The rest of the day was still relatively peaceful. Everyone got along peacefully, but there were small groups in the crowd. Although he had expected this to happen, Zhu Hong was unable to stop it. He walked together with Barus, Vallaway, and the Japanese girl, Yamagawa Hara. The rest of the posthumans walked together. Luther and the others walked together. Although walking together didn't mean that they liked each other, humans were such strange animals. They always liked to stick together…
