Chapter 182
When the outer wall had been breached, many people were sucked out into space. Armstrong was still in the process of recovering those corpses. However, the cold reality was that the city barely had enough manpower to carry out this task. Still, Sungyoon pushed back on the idea that Armstrong would go under.
“The world won’t let Armstrong fail. ”
Armstrong was the only city on the Moon. Moonstones were the main ingredients needed to produce the world’s energy supply. The demand for moonstones far outstripped the supply even before all of this. This city was essential if the world wanted more moonstones. There was no way the government of each country on Earth would easily give up on this city.
“Do you think people will want to come back?”
Tim asked.
“As you probably know, Connectors can't permanently leave the Moon. That means the lack of civilian population is the problem, but I believe they’ll return in due time. Of course, some will leave. However, I’m sure there will be enough new people that would want to come here. We know what caused this incident, and this information will be spread. People will start to think everything will be fine if the Connectors show more caution within the labyrinths. Above all else, money talks. There are people willing to risk their lives for money. Of course, this means the quality of service we can enjoy up here will decline for the near future. ”
Sungyoon thought about his past when he had no hope.
At the time, he would have done anything for money including putting his life on the line. He was sure the world was full of people like him.
Of course, nothing was absolute, so he qualified his statement.
