CHAPTER 264: CHAPTER 263: DEALING WITH THE PEOPLE IN THE CAMP

After what he said, Dan didn’t say sorry anymore and focused on their situation.

"Then why are we locked up here? Why didn’t they just kill us?" Dan asked.

"They aren’t after our belongings, so they didn’t kill us immediately. They are cannibals, so they captured us for their meals," Luciel briefly explained.

Dan, who had always been more serious than the others, even cursed. "F*ck!"

"They degenerated in such a way. There are already a lot of zombies outside eating humans, and now they’re eating their own kind too. How are they any different from the zombies?"

"Oh, of course there’s a difference. The zombies outside didn’t choose to become zombies themselves, but the people here still had the ability to think and choose. So the people here are even worse than zombies," Luciel said with a sneer.

Luciel never underestimates human nature because some people could be infinitely kind, and they could even sacrifice themselves for others, while there are also people who could harm others just because of many shallow reasons, just like the people in the camp.

"Indeed. So, how are we going to escape from here? I’m sure the people in the camp wouldn’t let us go. Do you have a plan already?" Dan said.

"Yes, I have. The plan is very simple—you guys just need to guard the kids and the others here while I kill all the cannibals in this camp," Luciel said nonchalantly.

After what he said, he could feel that all the people in the room looked at him.

They stared at him for a while before Dan said, "I know you might be strong, but there are probably a lot of people in the camp. We should think of another plan."

"No need to think of another plan. If it were just us, we could certainly leave without any problems. But I don’t think those cannibals have any value left, so it’s better to just deal with all of them—then leaving this place will be much easier."

Luciel really doesn’t think that those people who could eat their own kind have any value left in their lives.

They were already doing the same thing as zombies were doing outside, so they should just be killed just like the zombies.

Dealing with all the cannibals in the camp is very easy for him, so rather than just escaping, it’s better for him to take action so that it won’t be a hassle.

Dan wanted to say something more, but the others began waking up one by one.

Dan briefly mentioned their situation, and just as all of them woke up, Luciel could hear that the people who brought them were already coming to where they were to check on them.

"They’re already here. Stay at the sides," Luciel said.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone became tense. The kids immediately followed his instructions, while Dan and the others pulled away the people who couldn’t move and were near the door.

While the others were doing what they had to do, Luciel walked over to the door and stood to the side where it would open.

Luciel already took out one of his daggers and also prepared the vines he would be using.

As soon as the door opened, he immediately stabbed the heart of the person who opened the door and kicked him back to his companions.

After kicking the person away, he controlled four vines to struggle the four people who were farther away, and then he immediately stabbed and slashed the other 3 people who were closer to him and weren’t able to react yet because of the person thrown at them.

It took less than 2 minutes for Luciel to deal with the 8 people who came to check on them.

"Done. We should head out first. You guys should at least follow me near the entrance.

After that, you can stay there and wait for me to come back. Dan, Holden, I’ll leave the kids in your care for a while.

As for the others who can’t move yet, I don’t have any energy to take care of you guys.

Of course, after I clean up all the cannibals in the camp, you guys can be free too."

Luciel hadn’t taken action while the kids were still unconscious, even though he had already decided to wipe out all the cannibals in the camp by himself.

Because if something unexpected happened, and he had just left the kids behind, they wouldn’t have been able to run.

At the very least, if there was an earthquake or if he overlooked something, they would still have a chance to save themselves by either escaping or fighting back.

Dan and the others were also awake so they could better protect themselves.

He was confident that he could deal with all the cannibals in the camp, but he still had to leave a way out for unexpected situations.

As for the people who were still paralyzed, he really didn’t have the energy to take care of them, nor did he have any obligation to do so. For now, they could only be left in the room.

After he dealt with all the cannibals in the camp, they would also be free to go wherever they wanted.

The people who were paralyzed also understood what he said. They didn’t show any signs of resistance or express unwillingness—instead, they looked at him with bright, hopeful eyes.

When he started walking out, the others didn’t say anything and just followed after him.

After going out of the room, Luciel began opening all the rooms they passed by to check if there were people from the camp who were checking the situation in the other rooms.

They were in the farthest room, so it was very convenient for them to check the situation in each room they passed by.

In the end, Luciel only saw 2 cannibals who were trying to take advantage of two men when they were already near the entrance.
