How successful was Mu Chen's brainwashing?

The group of people at the scene were filled with sorrow as they listened.

"Waaaaah, what do we do? We're not good enough, we can't save more people!"

"It's all because we're too bad, there's nothing we can do!"

Lu Xiaoyao took the lead in wailing, and Zhen Po, as Lu Xiaoyao's number one brother, followed closely behind. The two of them cried and wailed so loudly that the NPCs who had been questioning them were rendered speechless.

You've cried so much, what else do you think they want to do?

"Did the leaders know about this beforehand?" After a long pause, the NPCs finally asked another question. "They agreed to let us fight the space pirates, but what about the Zerg?"

"I didn't talk about the Zerg, but I did talk about the space pirates."

With each word Mu Chen uttered, Hu Yue's eyes widened involuntarily.

Until her eyes could no longer bulge out.

Is this person toxic?!

No wonder Hu Yue noticed that Mu Chen's identity was very strange when they were on the ground, and the attitude of those above towards him was also unpredictable.

So that's where it was all!

How could this person be such a scoundrel?!

Seeing the incredulous look in Hu Yue's eyes as she stared at Mu Chen, Mingmei knew that Mu Chen hadn't told anyone about what he had done.

Noticing Mingmei's gaze, Mu Chen gave her an innocent smile, which made Mingmei both laugh and cry.

Mingmei thought to herself: No wonder people call me a dog.

Not everyone has a heart like yours; this sudden series of public announcements is quite frightening!

"Then now..."

Sure enough, the NPCs were also somewhat bewildered by Mu Chen's actions. Their gazes turned to Lu Xiaoyao, who had started crying earlier, and their eyes clearly asked, "So, what happens next is just as she said earlier?"

"Need not."

However, Mu Chen shook his head again and said, "We have selected the most suitable ratios for the people we screened earlier, considering their various professions, ages, number of men and women, and physical conditions. Let those who have already registered participate in the next stage of gene modification first."

Even though many older people applied during the registration period, Mu Chen and his team still screened them out through the established mechanisms. They even selected many young and strong soldiers and police officers who were skilled in various fortifications from the military, as well as some researchers required by higher authorities, to participate.

Mu Chen's idea was to continue opening the entrance and prioritize those queuing below to come up for gene modification.

Check the remaining quantity of medicine and communicate with the staff below to arrange for the corresponding number of people to be served.

"So... after screening 1.2 million people, how many will actually make it onto the list?"

"I've calculated it, and there should still be enough material suitable for 200,000 people to undergo genetic modification."

Guderian knew this even better; he had just been here and had a clear understanding of all the data.

Just as they were chatting, Mingmei suddenly saw Hu Yue turn around and leave with a sullen face. Mingmei could tell from her expression that she was not doing well when she left.

She glanced at the others and then quietly followed them out. Mu Chen was aware of Mingmei's departure, and with a slight pang of anxiety, he didn't follow. Instead, he spoke with the others present about what the genetically modified people on the starship would say to them later...

"What's wrong?"

Mingmei went outside and watched as Hu Yue walked to a corner and stopped, instead punching the wall until her fist was covered in blood.

"Stop right now!"

Mingmei was startled by Hu Yue's sudden outburst that hurt her. When she stepped forward to stop her, she received a cold look from Hu Yue, and Mingmei immediately stopped her outstretched hand.

Noticing Hu Yue's bad mood, she cautiously asked, "What happened?"

"Mu Chen didn't even tell you these things, aren't you angry?" Hu Yue suddenly asked, catching Mingmei off guard.

Why are you angry?

Mingmei's mission in this game wasn't the same as theirs at all. She was selling boxed lunches, while Mu Chen and the others were trying their best to save as many people as possible. Even if she wanted to know, she would only be surrounded by players like Lu Xiaoyao, Zhen Po, and Wang Dian, who were playing ordinary people. Even if she wanted to know, she wouldn't know much.

Mu Chen has not shown up since he was taken away halfway through, so even if he wanted to tell me, there was nothing he could do.

However, Mingmei also understood why Hu Yue was angry.

"Are you angry because he kept these plans from you?"

"Otherwise what?" Hu Yue put away her blood-soaked hand and looked at Mingmei. "From the very beginning, he was determined to select these people and abandon the vast majority of people."

He even tried to fool me, saying that as long as we killed these space pirates, such a large starship could take away more people. If that was really his initial thought, he wouldn't have deliberately selected talents from all walks of life from among the million people.

He never intended to save more people from the beginning!

"Then tell me, how many more people do you think there are?" Hearing Hu Yue's words, Mingmei also became a little angry: "Three hundred and ten thousand is more people, four hundred thousand is more people. This starship can indeed be squeezed in, you can fit a hundred million or even ten million people in it without any problem. So, how many more people do you think there are? One million, two million?"

"I……"

“Even if there’s enough gene serum,” Mingmei said, not giving Hu Yue any more time to speak, “how much food is on the entire starship? No one in history knows exactly how long it took for the Imperial and Federation armies to find us, or where they found us. Without food and water, how many people will survive in the end?”
