CHAPTER 859: CHAPTER 206 YOU REALLY MISSED THE OPPORTUNITY_3
"Hmm, the more I think about it, the scarier it gets. I suspect he’s deliberately bringing people to the Sunshine Shelter."
"That’s possible. Doesn’t he want others to threaten him?"
Some people felt that Lin Fan’s actions were filled with conspiracy.
Someone asked.
"What’s the benefit of going with you to the Sunshine Shelter?"
The survivor asking the question seemed to be thinking that there must be some advantage to convincing people to go over. If there were no benefit, who would want to go?
"Benefits?"
This was indeed the first time Lin Fan had heard someone ask such a question. He thought for a moment and then smiled, saying, "The benefit is that you don’t have to face zombies, and you can live the life you want."
The one who asked the question said, "What kind of benefit is that? Even if we encounter zombies here, we can handle them. Besides, we can live the life we want. Why should we go to your place, is it..."
"Yeah."
"That’s right, no way, no way, just not going."
The current post-apocalyptic world might really be a paradise for some Awakeners.
Living recklessly.
Doing whatever they want.
So far, Lin Fan hadn’t encountered any survivors who hadn’t become Awakeners, and they all wanted to reach the Sunshine Shelter. To them, all they wanted was stable order.
Nothing else mattered.
Lin Fan looked at them, smiling, "The choice to go is yours alone. I won’t force anyone, whether you’re an Awakener or an ordinary person. I sincerely hope you all live well. Survivors coming to the Sunshine Shelter, if you’re an Awakener, I’ll give you crystals to enhance your abilities and together we’ll protect the shelter."
When crystals were mentioned, everyone got excited.
Pang Yuan and the others were very anxious, not because they didn’t want people to go to the shelter, but because Lin Fan mentioned crystals. There would be some Awakeners with ulterior motives, pretending to go to the shelter, deceiving them for their crystals, and then leaving.
With such power, wouldn’t they become lawless outside?
Ji Qiuyue remained calm, her expression unchanged. Lin Fan was friendly, but that didn’t mean he was foolish. More importantly... his ability to see through a person’s heart made it not so simple to pretend in front of him.
"Then I’ll go, if there are crystals, I’ll go." A smiling Awakener raised his hand.
Lin Fan looked at him, "Your situation might not be suitable for directly going to the Sunshine Shelter. You’ll need a slight mind adjustment at Huangshi Prison first. Are you willing?"
"Prison?"
"Yes."
"Damn! Then never mind, I’m not going, it’s all a trick, full of tricks."
Many Awakeners watched the situation unfold as if they were watching a show.
Was there any excitement from Lin Fan’s arrival?
No, not a single excited thought.
Most of the Awakeners dismissed the idea.
They didn’t have much interest in the Sunshine Shelter.
Lin Fan didn’t want to explain.
Everyone was an adult, the choice was theirs. No matter the outcome, they could already take responsibility, while he was willing to invite merely out of a human kindness.
At this moment.
A very soft voice came, a bit unsure, and somewhat timid.
"Can I go?"
Swish!
Swish!
Everyone’s gaze fell on the person speaking.
They immediately burst into laughter.
With the mocking laughter echoing, the speaking survivor lowered his head, his hands and feet restless, a bit at a loss.
"Oh him, the guy in the gathering place assigned to clean toilets."
"I remember this guy’s name is Wu Da, right?"
"Yes, it’s him, the gathering place wouldn’t take him in, he begged to stay, cried and wailed, eventually being assigned to clean toilets, practically the permanent resident."
Wu Da listened to the others talk, his head hung lower.
He was just an ordinary survivor.
In the apocalypse, you couldn’t live easily. Encountering zombies meant a dead end, so to stay alive, he was willing to give up his dignity, be ridiculed relentlessly, become a laughing stock just to stay in the gathering place.
Even if it meant dealing with filth every day.
But to him, being alive was enough.
He learned of Lin Fan’s arrival, inviting people to the Sunshine Shelter, but he also heard it might be like captivity. Only Awakeners would be taken, someone like him might not even be considered.
But he still mustered up the courage to ask.
Lin Fan felt helpless inside. Why would people humiliate others like this just because they were Awakeners and others were ordinary survivors?
Perhaps when Awakeners appeared, the hierarchy between people opened up completely, even drawn clearly, a serious contempt chain already formed.
"Raise your head and talk to me, do you want to go with me?" Lin Fan asked.
Wu Da raised his head, looking haggard, with a confused look in his eyes, but within the confusion, there was a strong desire for life, and he stated firmly, "Yes, I want to go, can I?"
He hoped so much for the other to answer him, you can...
But he felt the possibility seemed low.
Except...
"Yes, of course you can." Lin Fan said.
In an instant, Wu Da widened his eyes, looking at Lin Fan in disbelief, "I really can?"
"Yes."
Hearing Lin Fan’s assured answer.
His eyes reddened, tears uncontrollably flowed. This was the most uplifting news he heard since the apocalypse erupted.
Lin Fan looked at everyone on the scene.
