"But if we don't hand over the immune individuals, does that mean we're no longer considered ants in their eyes?"
Someone countered, "If that's the case anyway, why not hand over the immune individuals so we can have some time to breathe?"
“I’ve said it before, without immune individuals, they are still under the control of the virus. With immune individuals, they can run rampant. You’re not buying them time to breathe, you’re giving them a huge gift! If you’re so eager to grovel before those aliens, why did you even come to the Empire?!”
"Alright."
Han Junche raised his hand to stop their argument. His gaze swept over everyone present, then he said calmly, "We don't have any immune individuals, and even if we did, we wouldn't hand them over. If we sacrifice an immune individual today for the sake of some so-called righteous cause, then next time, can we just sacrifice everyone else too?"
“Every human being on Earth is someone we must protect. There’s no such thing as abandoning anyone for anyone’s sake. If that were the case, why would we need to unite? We are all capable individuals. Even in the apocalypse, we can secure a safe haven with our own abilities. Why take risks?!”
Mr. Mei continued Han Junche's words, "We don't have any immune individuals. The inhibitors were developed by our researchers based on the zombie virus. If you still have objections, we can send you back to where you were."
After hearing this, no one spoke again.
Han Junche then went on to discuss the next step: sending an advance team to make contact with William. The purpose was twofold: firstly, to meet with William, and secondly, to investigate the true situation in order to determine the next course of action.
To put it bluntly, this advance team was essentially a suicide squad.
Han Junche made his point very clear: "Because of the special nature of the advance team, we have adopted a voluntary registration method. We do not require everyone to register now, but will provide everyone with centralized training, because we are, after all, a team, and configuration and coordination are crucial."
The meeting ended after a morning, but Mr. Mei and Han Junche stayed behind to discuss and analyze the issues raised at the meeting.
Mr. Mei frowned and said, "These people were quite positive about resisting aliens at the time. Although I expected some of them to have impure motives, I really didn't expect them to change so much in just one night."
"It's mainly because the Empire treats them too well."
Qin Zhao snorted coldly: "It's been several years since the apocalypse. In their country, resources have been almost completely depleted. Their food, clothing, and housing are only slightly better than those of beggars before the apocalypse. Suddenly arriving in the Empire and seeing its current state, they must be eager to hand over the immune individuals so they can start living a peaceful life as soon as possible."
“But most people are still good,” Mr. Ning said. “If all else fails, we can implement an elimination mechanism to send these people with ill intentions back.”
Han Junche pondered for a moment and said, "Let's proceed according to plan. Give them a month of special training, focusing on those who said they would hand over the immune individuals today. We'll see how they perform. Now let's discuss the advance team. In your opinion, what's a suitable ratio of personnel between the Empire and the Empire this time?"
Mr. Ning thought for a moment and said, "It needs to reach at least 30% so that our orders can be effectively executed."
"Forty percent, I suppose," Mr. Mei said, "just in case."
