Shachigo's proposal was very tempting.
There are a full 30,000 level-two crystal cores. Even if they are divided equally, that's still quite a lot.
Even if we can't get the crystal cores, some supplies would be fine, right?
The Dawn Society is rich and powerful; surely they wouldn't be so stingy as to not even part with these supplies?
However, this does not mean that everyone agrees with this view.
"Heh, what a delusional guy."
Mu Ye said with a faint sneer, "Last time, your Brotherhood, along with the Dali Gang and the Tianxia Alliance, all nine organizations, big and small, couldn't do anything to Zhang Hao. Now that the Dawn Society is getting more and more powerful, why should they give you supplies?"
"So what if you have high uric acid? Or can you bark like a dog?"
Shachigo's face darkened: "You bastard surnamed Mu! You're fucking insulting me?!"
"What did I do to insult you? If you could wag your tail and beg like a dog, people might take pity on you and give you some supplies. If you can't... then I advise you not to try to fool people here." Mu Ye sneered.
"What am I lying about? There was a reason for that last time. Our nine organizations didn't unite, which is why the Dawn Society picked us off one by one. If we all worked together, I don't believe Zhang Hao would still dare to be so arrogant," Shaqige retorted.
"Hahaha! You're so funny."
Makino shook his head and laughed, "What do you mean by defeating them one by one? You are clearly a bunch of rabble. The Dawn Society can't even be bothered with you. If you hadn't insisted on joining in, they wouldn't have bothered with you."
"We're not from the same faction. You're all harboring your own agendas. What good is it if we unite? Are we just going to deliver ourselves as cannon fodder? A bunch of idiots."
"I'm too lazy to play with you guys. If you want to die, then go ahead and do it. I'm not playing along."
After saying that...
Without waiting for the other party to say anything, he left with his men.
Sachigo was so angry that he wanted to take action, but he ultimately held back.
Muye is the leader of the Axe Gang, which ranks among the top three in the entire North Fourth Ring Road and has an organization size of around three hundred people.
Their influence in the North Fourth Ring Road area should not be underestimated.
Otherwise, even though Makino mocked so many people, the others remained silent, also out of fear of him.
The fraternity only has a little over a hundred members now.
Having experienced a period of turmoil, they dared not easily get into conflicts with others.
"Hey, what do we do now, you surnamed Sha?"
"That guy Makino is completely ignoring us. If the Axe Gang hadn't joined us, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to pull off this job!"
“Indeed, what Muye said was harsh, but in reality, our alliance is not very useful unless we can invite either the [Skywalker Society] or the [Shadow Alliance]. Otherwise, it will be of no use at all.”
Hearing everyone's suggestions, Shachigo was torn.
He actually knew that this was the only way; the Skywalker Society and the Shadow Alliance were the two strongest organizations in the North Fourth Ring Road.
The former is an organization of young people with severe chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), who always feel that they have the responsibility to save the world, and shout incomprehensible words.
Are you expecting these people to join?
Haha, that's way too difficult.
Unless you convince them that dealing with Dawn is as good as saving the world, don't even think about it.
The organization 【Shadow Alliance】 is even more special.
They are an alliance of assassins, each member representing a different faction.
Although this group of people are not immature and are quite normal, they only value "money," or rather, resources, crystal cores, and anything else of value.
If you have enough money, you can get them to help you.
The money issue could be resolved by everyone chipping in, but the problem is that they didn't intend to fight with Leon Lai; they just wanted to team up and extort money from him.
It seems that the Film Alliance only accepts murder cases, not actor cases.
The Axe Gang, which is second only to these two organizations, just quit.
This is awkward.
At this point, Makino had not actually left.
Instead, he stood in the stairwell on the first floor of the residential building and took out a half-smoked cigarette.
Xiao Hui, who was standing next to him, was very sensible and bowed to light the lamp for his boss.
Makino took a deep breath, exhaled a smoke ring, and frowned as if he was thinking about something.
Xiao Hui asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, boss? What are you thinking about?"
“Xiao Hui, do you think… if we report this rabble to the Dawn Society, will Chairman Zhang look at me with more respect?” Mu Ye said slowly.
"I don't know, but I think it's at least a favor," Xiao Hui said.
"Yes, but are human relationships valuable in the apocalypse?"
"It should be worth quite a bit, right?"
"No, it depends on the person. For someone like Shachigo who killed his brother to seize power, personal connections are of no use at all. But for someone who values loyalty and righteousness, personal connections are very valuable."
"Oh, so is Zhang Hao's favor worth anything?"
“I think it’s valuable, but favors will eventually run out. We can’t rely on favors to survive in this end times. We need to live like human beings.”
Mu Ye sighed and said, "Don't be fooled by the fact that our Axe Gang can challenge the Shadow Alliance and the Skywalker Society in the North Fourth Ring Road. Only our own people know the true nature of our organization."
"The Skywalker Society's group of immature youths are very pure. Even if they don't know where their next meal will come from, they are still full of enthusiasm. The Shadow Alliance lives by killing and taking on jobs, which is very materialistic. But our Axe Gang has no goal. You could say we are aimless. Do you think that's good?"
"I don't think there's anything wrong with it, right? Being a lazy bum can be pretty fun too," Xiao Hui said, scratching his head.
“You can do it, but I can’t, because I’m your leader. If the leader of an organization becomes unambitious, then that organization is destined not to last long in the apocalypse.”
Makino gave a bitter smile: "But as the leader, my abilities are limited. I can't guarantee that everyone will have enough to eat and drink in the future. The apocalypse is too cruel. Every time our brothers go out to scavenge for supplies, they are either killed or eaten by zombies."
"Xiao Hui, I really can't bear to see this, and I don't want to disband the Axe Gang like this. That would be too irresponsible. What should I do?"
Xiao Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "Boss, I'm not very bright and don't really understand these complicated things. Whatever you want, we brothers will support you unconditionally!"
"Then let's have our Axe Gang join the Dawn Society, and rely on exposing Shachigo and his gang."
"Okay, let's do it that way."
"Thank you, Xiaohui."
You're welcome, boss.
Makino patted him on the shoulder.
The two exchanged a smile, and then headed towards the Dawn Society.
For him...
This is both escapism and responsibility.
On the one hand, being unwilling to assume the responsibilities of an organizational leader is an act of escapism.
On the other hand, it is our responsibility to get our brothers to join the Dawn Society and prevent them from becoming homeless.
Makino wasn't sure if this was a good choice.
But he believed that this choice was certainly no worse than the brain-dead idiots like Shachigo who were courting disaster.
Since that's the case.
Why not take a gamble?
