Chapter 112: New Function
“Do we really have to hand over everything?” a survivor inside the vehicle whispered.
Joining Colin’s side could also be done through an alliance, and it felt like pooling resources to get a war chariot gave them some leverage, right? Handing over all their assets, including the three-cores set and the war chariot, seemed too restrictive.
“It’s up to you. I’m planning to fully commit and hand over everything I have. As for the money put into the war vehicle, I’ll just consider it my travel expense for coming here,” a female member among the five said gloomily.
She had had enough of this life of constant anxiety; she just wanted a safe environment to live simply. She no longer wanted to experience scenes where survivors fought like stray dogs over dried, brittle bones for a bit of resources. That day, she felt like a domesticated pet dog, seeing the world’s rawest barbarism and rudeness from a different perspective for the first time. Moreover, this world had the gray fog, mutants, and countless desperate dangers.
The woman didn’t think merely forming an “alliance” would make their lives much better. When one force becomes too powerful, an alliance can be a joke, ready to be torn apart at any moment. In that case, it’s better to join proactively, becoming “one of them” sooner, gaining higher status and seniority. Sometimes, choices matter more than effort.
So, when the war vehicle door opened, the woman didn’t hesitate to choose complete submission, aligning herself with the unstoppable rising survivor, Colin.
However, just as the woman handed over the scroll in her hand, a line of system text suddenly appeared in Colin’s mind underground.
