Just like what Shen Hao had mentioned, to a certain extent, they were no longer humans but had become weapons.
‘We need to implement the plan to deal with Sun Bahu as soon as possible.
‘Otherwise, it is going to be challenging if he gets the answer correct to the last few questions and obtains more weapon technology!’
After thinking about it, Su Mo covered the five corpses on the stretcher with the white cloth again.
Then, he washed his hands and walked out of the tent.
!!
The sky was already dark.
He stood on top of the snowy mountain and glanced at the Origin Territory below him, which was brightly lit and full of people.
After a whole day’s effort, Du Shi had successfully taken control of the territory’s east gate and placed a few soldiers on rotation in batches.
Meanwhile, the west gate was already completely out of control because of the crowd. Thus, the plan there had to be held back for the time being.
According to the latest information brought back by the two, although Sun Bahu had arranged for people to transport supplies, the exchange happening in the territory was not halted and was still released to the public in small amounts.
Judging by his actions, it seemed that he did not intend to run away immediately and still held hopes for the territory to survive this disaster.
“Shelter leader, Guan Yuan has returned to the camp too.”
Feng Tianmin approached while Su Mo was still deep in thought.
“Oh? How is the situation from her side?”
“Doesn’t sound too good. Apart from the main peak, she had infiltrated and searched all the sub-territories prisons, but…she didn’t find anything.”
Feng Tianmin shook his head and reported more bad news, “The territory is on the verge of an outbreak. Sixty percent of the people could not exchange supplies after waiting the whole day. I’m afraid a riot might happen tonight if the exchange continues.
“Judging by the current situation, this gathering place might be turned upside down in two days if these people can’t get their needs satisfied by tomorrow.”
There were only two days left, and the exchange had not been completely halted.
Thus, order could be maintained for now.
However, those with discerning eyes could see that these refugees would not take their lives lightly if the territory lord, Sun Bahu, did not announce any further actions.
Chaos was likely going to break out on the last day before the disaster struck.
“Alright.
“I’ll make arrangements for the second phase of our plan after dinner.”
Although they were running out of time before the outbreak, Su Mo was unusually calm.
It was the first time he had encountered such helplessness ever since coming to the wasteland.
In the past, he would always be able to find a chance to overcome difficult situations with the assistance of his trump cards and survival points.
Unfortunately, human means would always be exhausted in the face of insurmountable situations.
All he could do now was his best and do everything he could in his power.
The rest was up to fate.
…
The food prepared tonight was generous because they had wounded soldiers. Each person was served a bowl of fragrant braised pork and a big bowl of noodles.
However, apart from Hou Tielong, who was squatting in the corner excitedly enjoying his meal because he had not enjoyed meat in a long time, everyone else’s minds were preoccupied, and the atmosphere was incredibly dull.
Despite that, Su Mo did not say anything to relieve the atmosphere. After finishing his meal, he went into the meeting room to wait for the others.
This was the cruelty of war.
One had to be prepared to be sacrificed since they also held onto the idea of killing the other party.
The silence of the soldiers represented their lack of confidence in their future, strength, and chances of survival.
Under such circumstances, one who could enlighten themselves and survive on the battlefield could become a so-called elite.
One who was unable to overcome the pressure would be filtered out and no longer need to torture their hearts in the future.
Su Mo flipped through the documents on the table under the bright yellow light.
After a while, Feng Long, Feng Tianmin, Du Shi, and Guan Yuan entered the meeting room and sat down.
Soon, Hou Tielong, who had provided them with significant amounts of information in the daytime, also walked through the entrance with a smile. He put down the curtains and sat at the furthest seat.
“Everyone has completed the first phase of the plan had been implemented very successfully. Although there were some minor accidents during the process, overall, we still achieved our goals.”
Su Mo started with a compliment and then continued.
“However, the tasks I’m going to be assigning to everyone during the second phase of the plan aren’t going to be so simple. I need everyone’s greatest effort to ensure that no mistakes happen!”
“Understood!” The four of them replied in unison.
“Hou Tielong, I need you to lead some people to the ruins tomorrow morning. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?” Su Mo turned toward Hou Tielong that was still unaware of the whole situation.
“That won’t be a problem! I promise to do my best!”
After speaking, Hou Tielong stood up, raised his fist, and slammed it into his chest to show his loyalty.
After being inspired by the culture in the camp in the afternoon, the plans in his heart had completely been put away.
Hou Tielong was even firmer with his decision after finding out that Su Mo had a village and territory of considerable size through inquiring around the campsite.
From his point of view, Su Mo’s task was a test for him.
