Volume 4: The Undead Chapter 202 Glasses and Giants
Shichiemon's principle is "even if we can't become friends, we must avoid becoming enemies."
When he saw that Ogata and Atachi were unwilling to join their team just now, Shichiemon really wanted to part ways amicably. Even if he couldn't get those two people to join, at least he didn't want to have two more enemies appear for no reason.
But their team just happens to be filled with those short-sighted guys who can't even sell their legs or move their eyes when they see a beautiful woman.
These guys completely messed up Shichiemon's plan.
And Shichiemon had no way to say anything to these guys at that time.
Because Shichiemon was sure that if he had dared to rebuke those people who were so angry, these guys would have killed him without hesitation.
Shichiemon knew better than anyone how weak the cohesion of their team was.
Everyone chose to gather under Shichiemon and form such a loose organization just to survive better on this island and to be eligible for pardon.
And Shichiemon became the leader of these people only because he was good at speaking and knew how to stop and lead.
But his position as a leader is actually very empty.
He is not good at fighting and has no direct followers around him, so he does not have the final say in this team.
In fact, there are indeed many people in this team who are not on good terms with Shichiemon.
Therefore, Shichiemon did not dare to go against the opinions and ideas of the majority of people in the team.
Once he disobeys, those criminals in the team can push him down from the position of leader at any time, or even kill him directly.
This also led to the fact that when the group of guys just now were clamoring for Atachi to stay, Shichiemon did not dare to yell at them loudly, but only dared to stand silently in a far corner.
When these guys were defeated by Ogata and his companions, Shichiemon was the first one to run away.
Looking at the miserable state of the team he had built with so much effort, Shichimon felt angry and distressed.
He took a lot of deep breaths before he could calm his heart, which was beating wildly with anger and heartache.
Bang!
Shichiemon clapped his hands vigorously twice.
The survivors who were still alive and frightened were all attracted by Shichiemon's two rounds of applause and looked towards him.
"Everyone! Cheer up!"
Shichiemon yelled.
"It was just a small accident!"
"Those two people just now are powerful, but their existence will not affect our eligibility for pardon!"
"In the future, when we see them, we can just avoid them!"
"They do their thing, and we do ours!"
Shichiemon's speech finally made the faces of those who were still alive look a little better.
Looking at these people who have become slightly more energetic, Shichiemon curled his lips:
——I really want to leave this island as soon as possible, and get away from this useless mess...
Shichiemon felt that he was very unlucky - it was already the third day since they arrived on the island, and none of them had ever seen what a cannibal looked like.
Before they even saw the ogre, their team had already lost more than half its members.
After encouraging those who were still alive, Shichiemon's mind began to work rapidly, thinking about the next plan of action.
——First… we need to recruit more people… and try to recruit as many powerful people as possible…
——Then began to move deeper into the island.
——The reason why we haven’t encountered any cannibals is probably because we have been active on the outskirts of the island… If we go deeper into the island, we might be able to encounter some cannibals…
——Anyway, let’s head deeper into the island while searching for powerful companions…
Rustle...
Just as Shichiemon had made up his mind, the sound of footsteps trampling fallen leaves and flowers suddenly came from behind him.
Shichiemon and the others had just escaped death and their nerves had not yet completely relaxed when they suddenly heard the sudden Their scalps instantly went numb and they hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound with eyes filled with panic and fear.
Three figures were seen walking out of a dark forest and walking slowly towards Shichiemon and the others.
Shichiemon's heart was beating very fast due to nervousness and fear, and he looked at the three people intently.
One of these three people looks like a "savage" who makes the mountains his home.
His clothes were tattered, his clothes and body were dirty, he was skinny and his face looked extremely ugly. It was obvious that he had not had a good meal for a long time.
This "savage" was walking in front of the three people, and seemed to be leading the way for the two people behind him.
The two people behind him both have impressive appearances.
One of them was quite tall, with long hair tied in a neat bun, a delicate face, and a pair of rare glasses on his nose that were obviously made in the southern barbarians.
As for the other person...after seeing him for the first time, Shichiemon couldn't help but swallow his saliva out of shock.
If the man with glasses was just quite tall, then the other one was simply a giant, with a staggering height of over 6 feet.
The giant had an untidy beard, no shaved head, and no bun. His long hair was casually tied up with a rope and hung over his head.
A large sword was casually carried on the giant's shoulder.
While Shichiemon and his companions were looking at "Glasses" and his companions, "Glasses" and his companions were also looking at Shichiemon.
"Oh my..." Glasses raised his eyebrows. "After being on the island for so long, we finally ran into other prisoners. I didn't expect to run into so many at once."
"Excuse me, could you please give way?"
"Glasses" smiled and spoke in a very polite tone.
"We are on our way now, and you are blocking my way."
As soon as "Glasses" said this, the prisoners took a few glances at the "giant"'s tall and visually impactful figure, and then obediently moved aside.
"Thank you very much."
After casually thanking Shichiemon and the others, "Glasses" waved to the other two people beside him, signaling them to continue on their journey.
However, before the three of them could take a few steps, Shichiemon hurriedly called out to them.
"Three people! Please stay for a moment!"
As soon as Shichiemon said this, the three men with "Glasses" stopped in their tracks.
"What? We are on our way. If there is anything urgent, please tell me quickly."
"Glasses" turned around and asked Shichiemon this while giving him a cold look.
His gaze, reflected by the lenses, had an elusive quality.
