Kingdom of Corrosion

In the Maya era, there were abundant resources; when problems arose, they were directly pointed out, demanding correction or cessation. Due to Maya’s nature, no one had objections, and there were no situations where people were left unable to back down. Shana, however, tended to use emotion to judge issues. She tried her utmost to keep things level, but her varying attitudes toward each individual meant that her decisions and orders were prone to misunderstandings.

For example, Shana had a normal relationship with Peanut, while Maya had a normal relationship with everyone. Maya issued an order: "Peanut, go move bricks." Peanut thought moving bricks was tiring, but since the task was assigned to him, he could only do it. He did not feel that Maya targeted him with the order. Shana had those with whom she was on good terms, bad terms, and normal terms. Either Shana would assign the tedious tasks to those she was close with, or others would have complaints.

For instance, Shana was very close with Dashuang. When Shana asked Peanut or someone else to move bricks, Peanut or the others would wonder, why not Dashuang? The tough tasks were handed to them instead. Last time it was like this, this time as well. It’s not certain that you’re targeting me, but I’m inclined to believe that you are.

Starlight knew that restructuring would come at a significant cost, but she believed it would be beneficial for the long-term healthy operation of the base.

Finally, Starlight clarified: If Shadow did not accept the restructuring, she could not see a future for a Shadow lacking in execution power, and she would consider relocating to Angel’s Alliance. If Shadow were willing, she hoped to be escorted part of the way in an armored vehicle.

Angel’s Alliance was only a 12-kilometer straight-line distance from Doomsday Fortress but 25 kilometers by road. Due to the many zombies at the tunnel entrance’s Sentry Card, the two sides had only made contact via radio.

Angel’s Alliance was a survival alliance that came together through base exchange activities. Initially, there were 24 bases, but due to train activities, now only 11 remained, leaving 13 empty bases idle. They welcomed anyone to settle in Angel’s Alliance.

As an administrative officer, Su Shi was the first to voice his support for Starlight’s view. Previously, even Lin Wu had to get approval from the Deputy Commander to take items. Now everyone took and used things as they wished, lacking rigorous collective management. Emotionally, he was dissatisfied with Snow Egg’s unauthorized use of high-level materials and even more with the light punishment she received. Those were core components for upgrading to a Level 3 command centre.

Stone asked everyone slowly: Are we unable to get along, and preparing to disband?

His imposing questions were met with silence at the scene. Stone knew that the contradictions had reached a critical point, and the fact that no brawl had erupted was already quite civilized.
