After hearing what Li Mu said, the crowd below suddenly quieted down. From what the new commander said, did he approve of the current status of the fourth and sixth districts?
Some people were extremely dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to say much in this situation. If they really wanted to rebel, they would have to start from scratch. Who could enter the first zone without a good mind? They still understood the principle that a little impatience can ruin a big plan. The venue became quiet for a while.
"Well~ Actually, there is nothing wrong with what Districts 4 and 6 did. What is the mission of our Spark Base? It is to revitalize human civilization! And revitalizing human civilization cannot be done by just shouting slogans. It requires a lot of material and energy support. Although those people have suffered torture and even died and become food nutrients, this has also contributed to the revival of human civilization. They are heroes and will go down in history!" said a man wearing glasses.
"Right! They would starve to death or freeze to death outside. Although it's a bit tiring at the base, at least they can guarantee food and clothing, right? And they are contributing to the revival of human civilization. It's their honor!"
"You're talking nonsense! You're talking without any pain in your waist. Why don't you make this contribution?"
"How come I didn't make any contribution? Everyone just has a different division of labor!"
…………
The quarrel became more and more intense for a while.
"Haha, actually, none of us is wrong. We are all working for the revival of human civilization! But I personally still agree with the current approach. Without the energy provided by District 4, how can we do scientific research? Without the food supply from District 6, how can we feed so many people? Actually, the food we eat in District 1 is not rationed by District 6. What we eat is normal, and there is no need for you to feel bad about it." Liu Shuyun also expressed his position and persuaded everyone.
Hearing Liu Shuyun say that he did not eat those disgusting foods, some people in the venue breathed a sigh of relief. They only learned about the Sixth District today. If the food they ate every day was made of those things, it would be hard for them to accept it.
"Since they are all contributing to the revival of human civilization, why should they be treated differently?" someone questioned.
"That's right, didn't our family eat it too?"
…………
"Okay, since everyone has different opinions, let's vote! Close it or keep it. After closing, the worst that can happen is that the base will have no electricity or heating, and we will go back to the ground. Although there will be less food, it will be enough for everyone to eat for a few years." Li Mu said lightly.
There was a sudden silence in the field, and everyone looked at each other.
Li Mu ordered that paper and pen be distributed to everyone, and everyone should write down their stance on it. Moreover, it was a registered ticket, and one had to leave one's name on it.
Soon, everyone handed in their notes.
Li Mu looked through them one by one
Everyone was shouting loudly just now, but when it came to the issue of interests, few people supported the closure. Li Mu took a look and saw that there were only about 30 people.
However, there are more than 200 people who support maintaining the status quo. You should know that there are only more than 500 people in the entire First District.
The remaining nearly 180 people handed in blank papers, which were counted as abstentions.
Mr. Li Mu read out the names of the two people who held different positions and asked them to stand in two rows. Then he said to the remaining people who abstained from voting, "In my opinion, there are no abstentions. You either support the closure or maintain the status quo! If you want to be a fence-sitter, haha~ I'll give you two minutes to find a place to stand!"
Some of those who abstained were truly conflicted, while others were hoping for luck, fearing that they had chosen the wrong side. Therefore, under the threat of Li Mu, they quickly made their choice.
More than 10 people supported closure, and more than 130 people supported maintaining the status quo, but there were still nearly 30 people standing still and not choosing either side.
"Haha, I understand." Li Mu smiled faintly.
Then he took out the long sword that wiped out the breath and rushed towards the nearly 30 people who gave up. In just a breath, all those people fell to the ground.
The rest of the people were shocked. This new commander was too cruel. He killed nearly 30 people without any hesitation? Just because they didn't make a choice?
"The fact that they can remain neutral shows that they still have some conscience, although not much." Li Mu said calmly.
Everyone was thinking, "Then you killed them too. Wait, Mr. Qi, who was always by his side, was also among them? What a lunatic!"
At this moment, Li Mu took out a long sword from somewhere again, and everyone became nervous immediately, thinking that he was going to kill more people!
Li Mu pointed his sword at the more than 300 people who supported maintaining the status quo and said coldly: "For those who remain neutral, I can still give them hope of rebirth, but you, you don't have the qualifications!"
As he said this, he quickly rushed into the crowd. Those people wanted to resist, but they were completely defenseless against Li Mu. In less than a minute, they were all slaughtered.
The remaining 40 or so people who chose to remain closed were trembling in fear. The man in front of them was simply a devil!
Li Mu put away his sword and said to them: "I originally planned to destroy the entire base, but after thinking about it, I realized that ants still have the qualifications to fight for survival. It is really unfair for you to let me decide your fate. Since you still have a conscience, then, just let yourselves die!"
After saying this, Li Mu didn't even turn around and went straight to the sixth area. He pointed his sword at the staff and killed them all with the sword that was tainted with his breath. Then he looked at those people who were still pedaling the generator with numb faces. Li Mu sighed and freed them all. After all, these people had already become numb and would not be able to survive if they continued to stay. It would be better for them to win this doomsday by lying down and wait for the day when Li Mu would restart the earth.
