At the fishing port, Elro lost a mech. Such a big incident, coupled with a city-wide search, could not be concealed any longer.
Everyone already knows that Elro lost his mech, and that it was stolen by a clone girl.
Like 096, that assassin girl was specially produced and possessed extremely strong special abilities.
Due to their special nature, these individuals all had names other than numbers when they were manufactured. 096 was called the Immortal War God. However, 096 disliked trouble and didn't like to say his nickname, preferring to call himself by his original code name, 096.
While the Assassin Girl may not be as strong as 096, she is stronger than 096 in some aspects. However, her special ability seems to have some limitations, and those who knew about her special ability all died. Her nickname, "Angel of Slaughter," is not an exaggeration.
As clones produced by the same cloning factory, they were no strangers to the clone girl, Angel of Death.
When Roberts mentioned that the person piloting the mech might be a clone, their first thought was that it must be the Angel of Death.
All the clones present were filled with excitement.
The previous information was only hearsay and there was no 100% certainty that the mech was taken by the Angel of Death.
It is now confirmed that their clone faction has indeed gained an extra mech.
The lead clone said, "They brought us good news, so let's not kill them yet, let's lock them in the dungeon first."
The clones of today and tomorrow will take Roberts and Yuan Guoping to the dungeon.
The dungeon was pitch black and very dim.
It also had a strong musty smell.
Roberts and Yuan Guoping were being held in the same cell when they soon heard a noise nearby.
A weak voice said, "Is there anything to eat? Poisonous plants will do too."
Roberts said, "No."
Upon closer inspection, there were several withered corpses around me, and among them, a withered young boy was sitting against the wall.
Yuan Guoping immediately approached, examined the boy, and said, "He's starving and looks emaciated. If he doesn't eat soon, he might really starve to death."
Roberts said helplessly, "Don't look at me, I've been stripped down to my underwear, there's no food for me."
Yuan Guoping blushed; wasn't he the same way?
Glancing at the several corpses around him, Yuan Guoping knew that this boy would soon become a cold, lifeless thing, just like those corpses.
Yuan Guoping looked at Roberts seriously and said, "Think of a way. I know you have a way."
Roberts: "What can I do? We're all in a bind."
Yuan Guoping, however, did not let Roberts off the hook, saying, "Hand over the nutrient solution!"
"W-what nutrients? I don't know what you're talking about," Roberts said, feigning innocence.
Yuan Guoping said seriously, "I saw more than a dozen tubes of nutrient solution in your plane cabin. How come you're telling me that there aren't any left after only a few days? That doesn't add up."
Roberts said, "You don't trust me?"
“Although I’ve been in the shelter for 50 years, I’m not an idiot. In dire situations, I always keep something in reserve. Because I knew I would have to rely on you later, I didn’t expose you.”
Roberts was still pretending: "No, they're all really gone."
Yuan Guoping pointed to Roberts's crotch: "What's that there? I don't believe your penis is that big?"
Roberts' face darkened: "That's how big it is, I'm a gifted individual."
Yuan Guoping frowned, annoyed: "Do you want me to take action?"
“Fine, fine, you’re kind, you’re so good-hearted. You’re giving the nutrient solution to others, but what will you do when we go hungry?” Roberts said, taking out a nutrient solution and handing it to Yuan Guoping. “You know, in the apocalypse, everyone has to keep something in reserve. It’s normal.”
Yuan Guoping took the nutrient solution. "It's not dirty to hide it there," Yuan Guoping said, patting Roberts on the shoulder.
As a result, a clanging sound came from there.
Yuan Guoping's expression changed slightly: "There are still so many left. Aren't you afraid they'll break the eggs hanging there?"
Roberts' face turned a deep shade of liver, whether from pain or embarrassment was unclear.
Yuan Guoping immediately fed the boy the nutritional supplement in his hand.
The boy didn't seem to mind and swallowed the nutrient solution whole.
After a short while, he seemed to have recovered and regained his strength.
"Thank you, thank you all."
Yuan Guoping said, "Thank him, it's his nutrient."
The boy looked at Roberts and said, "Thank you."
Roberts: "You're welcome."
Yuan Guoping asked, "Tell me what happened here?"
“It was a peaceful morning, but suddenly we were attacked. Run…” The boy fell into painful memories. “These clones are inhuman. They like to torture and humiliate us. They make us crawl like dogs. If they are not satisfied with the slightest thing, they will torture and kill us by slow slicing in so many of them. My family and friends were all killed by them like this.”
Roberts remained silent. In a post-apocalyptic world, such situations are not uncommon. The lack of institutional management breeds all sorts of terrible atrocities.
After a brief silence, Yuan Guoping thought about how to comfort the boy. He said, "Fortunately, you are still alive. As long as you are alive, there is hope."
The boy smiled bitterly: "There is no hope here."
"Why are you so downcast?" Yuan Guoping said, displeased.
The boy said, "The reason those clones didn't kill me is that they kept us, the last survivors, locked up and didn't feed us, trying to make us lose our humanity and eat our own kind."
Yuan Guoping was shocked: "Cannibalism?"
The boy nodded.
Yuan Guoping and Roberts looked around at the withered corpses, all of which were intact, indicating that the boy had not done so.
