Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 213 Human Food
Xu Shen's face turned cold, and he said, "You don't have to worry about it. Let's talk about it as we want. 55 points. If they are willing, then do it. If they are not willing, then let them go."
Chen Qingyun was stunned, and immediately said comfortably: "Okay, with your words, I know what to do."
Previously, he was worried about the relationship between Xu Shen and the Haitang Brotherhood, so he acted too humble and gave in everywhere. Now that he has Xu Shen's words as a basis, he doesn't have to be so depressed.
Just as the call ended, the ringtone rang again.
When Xu Shen saw that it was Mu Wang, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"
"I heard that you transferred 6 Xu in the past two days?" Mu Wang said straight to the point. He also understood Xu Shen's personality, and was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with Xu Shen.
"Hmm?" Xu Shen asked, "Are you spying on me?"
"Don't get me wrong, this kind of thing needs to be reported to the association. If I don't know about such frequent transfers, I would be eating for free as the president of this association."
The Wood King said indifferently, "You can handle things that require a Xu beast to solve yourself, right? Unless it is inconvenient for you to show up, and there are not enough Xu beasts in the association, can you tell me what you are doing?"
"I didn't do anything." Xu Shen said indifferently: "As a commander, I shouldn't be held accountable for mobilizing 6 Ruins, right?"
King Mu said, "I won't hold you accountable. I'm just telling you that the release of the ruins is a secret matter after all. Don't make too much noise. Some things can be passed by if people turn a blind eye. But if you are too arrogant in public, someone will come and give you a warning."
"Besides, there aren't that many Xu in the guild, so you should use them sparingly. It's not easy to raise a Xu in the guild, and it's not easier than raising a Xu Slayer."
"knew."
Xu Shen hung up the call.
King Mu was probably afraid that he would make things worse. If 6 Xu were released at the same time, even if they were only at D or C level, it would be enough to cause great harm.
However, at the rate Kuroyuki eats, the Light Chasing Club really cannot afford to support him.
Speaking of which, Xu Shen had never cared about how the society raised and raised the fish.
After taking a look at Hei Xue, Xu Shen's heart moved slightly. Maybe he could learn from those "professionals" in the association?
Not long after, the transport truck arrived downstairs.
Xu Shen asked Hei Xue to wait in the room as usual, while he brought the two dogs in the transport truck up.
These two Xu are both D-level, a pair of twin boys, bound with chains forged from Xu stone, looking pitiful.
Xu Shen untied the chains, and the two boys immediately revealed ferocious faces and rushed towards Xu Shen at a rapid speed.
Xu Shen casually threw the chain aside and ignored it.
The moment the two boys pounced over, Kuroyuki had already arrived and pressed them to the ground with both hands. Then the black hair on her head coiled out like a poisonous snake, restraining one of the boys, and then she cut open the body of the other boy.
A shrill scream was heard and juice splashed.
Xu Shen sat on the chair with his legs crossed, quietly waiting for Hei Xue to finish eating.
Hearing the low , Xu Shen picked up the book on the table and started flipping through it, trying to distract himself.
Soon, Kuroyuki finished eating.
The black hair on her forehead wiped away the remaining stains at the corners of her mouth, and she returned to Xu Shen obediently.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"70% full, any more?"
"No, I'm going out now to see if I can find more delicious food." Xu Shen put the book down, stood up and said.
Hei Xue quickly grabbed the edge of Xu Shen's combat uniform and looked at him pitifully: "Brother, take me out with you."
"No, you have to be obedient at home." Xu Shen said sternly.
The two looked at each other. Xu Shen did not give in at all, but cold sweat broke out on his palms. Soon, he saw that Kuroxue's eyes did not turn fierce, but gradually became softer.
"Okay, then brother, you have to come back soon." Kuroyuki gave in.
Xu Shen nodded slightly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was Maeve's intimidation, he didn't know how long this intimidation could last. He had to slowly establish the dignity and power of a brother in Hei Xue's heart, not just the identity of a "brother".
Leaving Kuroxue in the room, Xu Shen went out.
Maeve followed him lightly with her hands behind her back, dancing among the surrounding buildings like a butterfly flying through the jungle, so that Xu Shen did not feel lonely even when walking in the dark.
…
…
In the suburbs, in a remote factory.
There is no one living within a dozen miles around the factory, and the nearest ones are some villages and towns. Some of these villages and towns are deserted due to ghosts, and the fog people inside have nowhere to go. They can only stay in the villages and towns, but their activities have decreased, and the atmosphere in the villages and towns seems more gloomy, and the sounds of chickens and dogs are particularly rare.
Only the calls of cuckoos echoed in the empty space.
In the dark night, an off-road armed vehicle came galloping over, its headlights swaying from side to side, shining on the snow-white concrete road.
There were two cars parked here. Big Lily stood beside the car. The wind was blowing coldly, so she tightened her coat and looked at her watch from time to time. When she heard the sound of tires pressing on the ground, she looked up. The glaring headlights made her raise her hand slightly.
The car stopped, Xu Shen got out and said , "Sorry for the long wait."
"Luckily, we just arrived too. " Big Lily immediately came forward and said, "Commander, the place ahead is where the Xu beasts are raised."
Xu Shen looked forward and in the darkness he could only see two very old, bright yellow light bulbs hanging in front of a factory in the distance.
"It's so late, thank you for your hard work." Xu Shen said.
"It's not hard. Commander, please summon me at any time. I'll be on standby at any time." Big Lily said quickly.
Xu Shen nodded slightly. There were only three staff members accompanying him. They turned on their flashlights and led the way for the two.
As Xu Shen walked, he asked, "Have you also reached the initial state limit?"
"Yeah." Big Lily responded with her head down.
"You have not been given an official position before. From now on, you will be the chief consul, commanding all the consuls in the council. Your status is second only to the deputy consul."
Former commanders such as Zhou Yuanyuan have now been demoted to deputy commanders.
Big Lily was startled, surprised and happy, and quickly said, "Thank you, Commander!"
The association has a lot of initial limit masters, at least eight if not ten, all of whom are senior consuls with confidential information. Her original rank was equivalent to this, but now she has been promoted again.
You know, there is no position of chief consul in the association.
But with just one word from Xu Shen, he could get this position.
Some positions exist because there are corresponding people.
Xu Shen nodded slightly, without any hesitation. He looked around and saw hidden cameras on some weed piles and telephone poles along the way. Obviously, this area had reached the surveillance area.
Not long after, several people arrived in front of the factory.
"Commander, please."
Big Lily hurried forward and opened the door for Xu Shen. At the same time, she took out her communicator and contacted the person in charge in the factory.
Soon, a middle-aged man trotted out.
Xu Shen saw that the latter was also a ruin slayer, with a light figure and a neat and decisive manner.
"Is this the commander?" The middle-aged man's eyelids jumped when he saw Xu Shen. As an old member of the guild, he was quite familiar with the previous change of the commander in the guild. It was an internal fight among the commanders, and the commander who was involved in the fight was the one who had dismissed the other commanders from their positions and became the only commander.
"Commander, my humble name is Zhu Jiazhen..." the middle-aged man hurriedly introduced himself.
Xu Shen waved his hand: "I heard that the Xu in the association are all tamed here. Are you the one in charge of taming them?"
Zhu Jiazhen nodded repeatedly: "Previously, Commander Cheng was in charge of this matter. I was just his subordinate. When we encountered some C-level ruins, Commander Cheng would personally train them."
Commander Cheng?
Xu Shen had no impression. Although he had killed six commanders, he could not recognize all of their names and did not know which one it was.
"And now?"
Zhu Jiazhen's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Commander, what do you want to know? I will tell you everything I know. Although I have followed Commander Cheng for many years, Commander Cheng has always deducted money from his subordinates and bullied and beat them. Now that he is gone, it is a good thing for us..."
"No need to say that."
Xu Shen waved his hand again, interrupting him and said, "I am not here to deal with his followers. I believe that smart people will choose to stand on the same side, and stupid people will naturally be dealt with by smart people. I came here tonight to understand the situation of the taming ruins. You said that Commander Cheng was originally in charge of the taming of C-level ruins. Now that he is not here, who will be in charge of the C-level ruins?"
Zhu Jiazhen was stunned and a little hesitant.
Big Lily saw through his thoughts and shouted in a low voice: "Just answer whatever the commander asks you. If the commander wants to deal with you, does he need to find a crime against you?!"
Zhu Jiazhen's face changed slightly and he felt a chill in his heart. Indeed, if such a big shot wanted to deal with them, he could just do it right away. Why would he need to find those excuses?
Apart from King Mu, the only person in the club who can do whatever he wants is the commander in front of him.
"Commander, please forgive me. I was just imagining things. Now that Commander Cheng is in trouble, the capture of C-level Xu has come to a halt. No one is qualified for this position, so we can only tame D- or E-level Xu." Zhu Jiazhen was terrified and said quickly.
Xu Shen frowned: "So, there is no C-level market in the club now? What if we want to put in a C-level market?"
Zhu Jiazhen said with an embarrassed look on his face: "If we want to release them, we can only mobilize the ones that were tamed by Commander Cheng, but they have been used up and there is only one left."
Xu Shen looked at Da Lili and said, "So, the things that Cheng Tonglin was in charge of before, no one is in charge now?"
It's not just Commander Cheng, no one is in charge of the other commanders' affairs either... Big Lily thought to herself, nodding slightly on the surface: "Some urgent matters will be temporarily handled by Deputy Commander Zhou and his men."
Xu Shen asked: "Why didn't anyone tell me about this? Isn't this urgent?"
Urgent, of course, but there are other more urgent matters... Big Lily smiled bitterly in her heart, but said cautiously on the surface: "This matter is also urgent, but it's later in the round. These matters have been submitted before... It's just that you may be busy and didn't notice it."
Xu Shen was stunned, then shook his head and said, "I never read the documents in the meeting, and King Mu didn't tell me either. Forget it, in the future, for such important matters, you should prioritize and report the important ones to me first."
"...Yes." Big Lily lowered her head.
"Come on, take me to see how you tame a D-level Xu." Xu Shen said.
Zhu Jiazhen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly made way for Xu Shen to come in.
The factory is extremely spacious. There are no workers, only some simple equipment and food and drinks. However, on the second floor of the factory, there are two ruins-destroying devices.
After asking Xu Shen for instructions, Zhu Jiazhen activated the ruins-destroying device.
The world of ruins expanded, covering the few people, and the factory in front of them became illusory.
In addition to Zhu Jiazhen, there are 6 other people here, one is the deputy supervisor and the other five are employees.
In the ruins world here, there are iron cages forged from black ruins stones, in which are imprisoned ruins beasts.
They are all D and E grades.
"Um?"
Xu Shen took a quick look and although he saw the ruins in these iron cages before entering the ruins world, he could see other material features of the ruins world after entering it.
Xu Shen also saw a large number of bones piled on the ground outside the iron cage.
Some of the skeletons were clearly still stained with flesh and blood, and had not been eaten clean.
Xu Shen's expression changed slightly, and he said gloomily: "You are using people to feed the village?"
"Yeah." Zhu Jiazhen smiled and said, "These people are picky eaters. Apart from a few species of animals, only humans are most in line with their appetites, and humans are the most numerous..."
He spoke with high spirits, but when he saw Xu Shen's rather gloomy eyes, he froze for a moment, and hurriedly said carefully: "Commander, the human food we selected is specially transported here. They are not ordinary good citizens, and we will not rashly kidnap some passers-by and sell them here. You can eat them with confidence."
Xu Shen asked in a deep voice: "Has it always been like this?"
Zhu Jiazhen nodded: "It's all like this."
Big Lily glanced at Xu Shen and said, "It's the same for other forces raising people. We have special human feeders. Most of these human feeders are deformed children or mentally ill people. Some are wandering fog people. Because fog people like to mate and give birth, but their conditions are limited, and they are prone to giving birth to deformed children."
"These deformed children will be abandoned by the Fog People after they are born. After all, raising a deformed child is too much of a burden for the Fog People. So we will take them in and raise them together..."
"...So, there is already a complete industrial chain?"
Big Lily nodded slightly: "Actually, this is good for them. After all, without us to raise them, they might die from birth."
Xu Shen was silent.
He didn't know how to judge whether this was right or wrong.
Eat it after raising it.
Just like humans raising flowers, plants and fruits.
To Xu, humans are fruits.
But what I didn’t expect was that the fruit farmers were humans themselves.
"Besides feeding, how do you tame them?" Xu Shen asked.
Zhu Jiazhen carefully looked at Xu Shen's face and found that he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry. He whispered, "We usually let the Xu starve first, and then tame it through food. Some Xu can understand our instructions through their food needs, but some can't. Therefore, in addition to starving it, we also have to beat it hard!"
"Beat him until he behaves himself."
"that's all?"
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows.
Zhu Jiazhen scratched his head and said, "Commander Cheng was like this before, but he was a C-level ruin, so we didn't dare to push him too hard."
Xu Shen understood and couldn't help feeling disappointed.
There is no technology at all.
