So, is this what happens when out of a million people, only 300,000 survive?

Mingmei walked along the corridor inside the starship with the remaining 300-odd people who had undergone genetic modification out of more than 20,000. As they walked, people who had similar experiences to them gathered from other places.

They all seemed quite frightened.

Among the group, some had lifeless eyes, some were filled with resentment and sorrow, and some were even terrified.

At the corner, Mingmei encountered Lu Xiaoyao and the others, with whom she had parted ways earlier. At this moment, Lu Xiaoyao and Zhen Po were still covered in someone's blood, and the bottoms of the bags they were carrying and carrying on their backs were also stained with blood.

Even when Mingmei raised her hand to greet them, the two of them only blinked slightly, completely blank.

What happened?

Although Mingmei roughly knew that they were shocked by the scene just now, seeing the two of them staring blankly, Mingmei felt that she still had to say something to bring them back to their senses.

"Just now... Wang Dian... exploded."

Lu Xiaoyao opened her eyes wide and looked at Mingmei, her eyes filled with terror. She described to Mingmei how Wang Dian started to split open in front of her and Zhen Po, starting from the scar on his head.

Just thinking about that scene made Lu Xiaoyao tremble.

The key thing is that she can't stop thinking about this scene; it keeps repeating itself in her mind!

She grabbed Mingmei's wrist, trying to draw some strength from her, but Mingmei gripped her hand back and asked, "So what do you plan to do now?"

As she asked the question, a fierce glint flashed in Lu Xiaoyao's eyes as she looked at the robot leading the way. Just as she was about to say something, a commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd once again.

Someone turned around and ran back!

"I want to go home! I can't stay here anymore, people are dying here, people are dying here!" qqxδnew

The man ran while muttering to himself, weaving through the crowd as if he thought that the robot at the front wouldn't notice him.

Some people stood there, bewildered; some turned back to watch the departing figure; and some were eager to become the second or third to escape.

Unexpectedly, several bright "thin lines" suddenly appeared in the long corridor they were walking along.

"Isn't this the particle beam that's installed at the bottom entrance of a starship to block invading enemies? This starship's configuration is too good!"

Zhen Po recognized what it was at a glance.

"The starship in our last game didn't have this configuration."

No sooner had they finished speaking than the person who had fled passed through the beam of particles and, to everyone's horror, his body tore apart, turning into a pile of flesh with a thud.

Seeing this outcome, no one present had any other thoughts left; there was no turning back now.

After turning around, the group continued walking, and Mingmei could faintly hear sobbing coming from the crowd.

They cried out that these aliens had ill intentions, while simultaneously cursing the government for concealing and deceiving them.

Upon hearing this, some people in the crowd couldn't help but frown.

"Anyone with a brain knows this isn't a good place, right?"

Lu Xiaoyao finally couldn't help but speak up, "If you had used your brain back then, you would have known the country's attitude just by looking at the expressions of the news anchors. It's just that these guys are too powerful. If they had just said it directly, who knows if any of us would have survived the next second?"

While Lu Xiaoyao was queuing up, she saw many older people around her signing up, saying things like they were going to broaden their horizons. When they saw young people signing up, they couldn't help but persuade them to leave. The care in their eyes showed that everyone knew this was a one-way street.

"So you got here too?!"

The guy who was just complaining was about to unleash his pent-up resentment when someone challenged him. He wouldn't dare to curse aliens or robots to their faces, but how could he dare to curse this seemingly weak little girl?

Thinking about it, the man started cursing at Lu Xiaoyao, but this time no one stood idly by; people from both sides quickly "pulled" them back.

Xiao Yao gently pulled Lu, but when faced with another person, she roughly pulled away, and someone else even kicked the other person, causing them to fall to the ground.

It's obvious at a glance which of these two is more hateful.

The man tripped and fell to the ground, about to curse, when he looked up and met the murderous gazes of several burly men who had surrounded him without his noticing.

0.0 Quiet as a chicken

After many ups and downs along the way, everyone finally arrived at their destination – Nushe.

The so-called slave quarters were places mentioned by some of them in the materials about space pirates, where they were imprisoned after capturing slaves.

Even a normal starship doesn't have this place.

They were all formed through their own modifications.

It was still a large, empty space. On one wall were markings indicating where to get water and food, but according to the learning materials they had read before, those things were basically just water.

There is food, but not much; just enough to keep you from starving.

“You were captured and enslaved, so don’t even talk about human rights. You weren’t even human then. In their eyes, you were just livestock.”

The teacher mentioned this point when discussing the chaos on the edge of the planets in class, and also when talking about space pirates and the human trafficking in the underground black market.

Regarding the slaves captured by space pirates.

"They just huddled them together, giving each person a small space. You didn't even have a place to sit or lie down; they just made you stand there and suffer."
