Chapter 1804: Chapter 1797: Cherish the Little Time Left
As the outsider woman with injuries on her face uttered the last sentence, the video ended there, and Su Sigui shifted her gaze from the ceiling.
Eleven people simultaneously turned their eyes to her. The video Su Sigui had shown them successfully stirred deep unease in their hearts!
They were desperately eager to know where the first part of the video, featuring the outsider youth named Yaztec, was filmed, and they urgently wanted to know where Kamutos was at this moment!
They had focused too much on the Nightmare Zombie King and only now realized there were two Zombie Kings so close to them!
Unknowingly, humanity has reached its final stage; even if they are reluctant to accept it, they must let go of any illusions, to confront and face it!
Su Sigui turned off the large screen behind her and looked at the people in front of her with a complicated expression. She couldn’t describe her feelings; it was difficult for her to remain calm. She also felt tense about what she was about to face and bear, almost suffocating her. She didn’t want to admit a sense of helplessness inside her, yet she could not deny its existence.
"Sorry..."
"No need to say that. We understand you."
"Anyway, this old man has lived long enough. It makes no difference if I die early or late. Little girl, do what you want to do. I will always stand by your side."
"Exactly, death is death; what’s there to fear? I’ve done everything in this life, it’s worth it! I just don’t know what death feels like, but I have one request, that is, when I die, I hope others will remember my name and what I’ve done... achieve eternal fame."
"Haha..."
Someone forcibly squeezed out a smile, but couldn’t continue as Su Sigui at the head lowered her head. People present couldn’t see the expression on her face, and when she raised her head again, her face was exceptionally serious. No matter how much others wanted to laugh, they couldn’t.
"Thank you for the decisions you’ve made. I’ve disclosed everything I should to you; now, I won’t beat around the bush. I have many things to do; what I will say next is not a discussion with you but an order! If anyone pays lip service but disobeys, regardless of who they are, they will end up like them!"
"Alright, the first thing is, I need many hands! Hands that can absolutely obey my orders! I believe you all understand."
Su Sigui tossed a pile of purple evolution crystal cores wrapped in clothes in the middle of the conference table, clearly indicating these cores were to create new Level 8 New Humans! No matter their physical condition, as long as they have the strength of Level 8 New Humans and obey, it’s enough!
The eleven people exchanged glances, nodded in agreement, and divided the evolution crystal cores equally.
"The second thing..."
Su Sigui picked up the files on the ground, including the pie chart showing the proportion from ordinary people to Level 8 New Humans. She flicked the bloodstains off and slapped it onto the table, continuing to speak: "The entire Cloud Gorge Base has about 3.5 million ordinary people. I can’t guarantee everyone will have a chance to survive, but I will preserve all hope. Apart from all new humans, plus people over forty and excluding pregnant women, I can only arrange for three hundred thousand, and among these, agriculture, medical care, and education must be complete."
"So, I order you to build an underground shelter accommodating three hundred thousand people within three months, seventeen thousand meters below ground! And stock enough food to last three hundred thousand people for over three years!"
Su Sigui’s tone was grim, the kind of irrefutable tone that left people no room to doubt if she was joking.
Ye Changgong furrowed his brow, thinking building a shelter in three months that could accommodate three hundred thousand people seventeen thousand meters underground was an enormous task, bordering on the exaggerated!
"Three months..." Not only Ye Changgong thought so, but others also felt the same way. They wanted to ask Su Sigui if the time was too short, but remained silent. They understood Su Sigui very well, knew the pressure she carried, realizing she had abandoned her human emotions. If they questioned her now, no matter how good the relations were, they wouldn’t hesitate to think she would kill them the next second!
To say without exaggeration, she is now the god of all humanity! All the power over life and death is in her hands, and if she wants to do something, nothing is impossible!
As if guessing their thoughts, her cold words once again reached the ears of the eleven present.
"I don’t care what methods you use, there’s only three months! By then, I don’t care whether it’s Level 8 New Humans or ordinary people, get everyone to participate in the project! Use your hands to dig if you have to!"
"The third thing, regarding the fact that I am a Level 9 New Human, I will announce it to the public tomorrow. Xu Tianyu and Yan Xing, I’ll give you three days to take over and consolidate resources under these people’s influence as quickly as possible, and then notify other survivor bases and Sanctuary Cities to establish unified management across all survivor bases and Sanctuary Cities within China, centered around Cloud Gorge Base, and ensure all new humans above Level 7 arrive at Cloud Gorge Base by the fourth. If anyone doesn’t arrive, you might find more heads in your hands."
"After you two complete this task, the fourth is to move all bases and Sanctuary Cities within China to the highest level of military readiness, prioritizing all products for the military! Expel all ordinary people from army groups! Dissolve all mercenary groups and bounty hunter guilds, whether public or private!"
"New Humans from Level 1 to Level 7 must all be reeled in, with any resisters, regardless of age, being executed on the spot! By then, except for those in special roles, I want all new humans on the streets to be soldiers! And to undergo the strictest and most effective pre-war training! If I find ordinary people within the army, from their lower-level management to their superiors, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
"That’s all, the Nightmare Zombie King is just the beginning. We can’t rely on anyone else next. When you return, I expect you to start acting immediately; time is short, and we hope you cherish it. Meeting adjourned."
Su Sigui watched expressionlessly as the eleven stood up silently, walking towards the meeting room’s door one after the other. None of them spoke, with a new sense of reverence in their eyes. They were also very quiet, only the "squeak-squeak" sound from stepping on the now coagulating blood could be heard.
The meeting room was terrifyingly oppressive, and even minor noises would make the hearts of these eleven Level 8 New Humans race!
She sat motionless in her chair watching them leave; she sat and picked up the pen on the table, beginning to spin it. But after a few spins, the indescribable complex pressure squeezing her heart made her grip the pen tightly. The pen broke silently in her hand. She suddenly felt estranged by her own actions earlier, as she did not want to be like that!
More confusion arose in her heart, as the rows of corpses in front of her led her to doubt her actions for the first time, questioning whether she should really be so aloof. Desperately needing someone who could listen to her inner thoughts, she called out as Ye Changgong was about to step out the door.
"Old Ye, wait a moment."
