Chapter 272: Endless Debate
Han Hong insisted, "Exactly! Do you all forget how Jing and the others died? Now, rushing out, there are zombies everywhere. They go crazy biting anyone they see, and the more we gather, the more of them there will be! There's no way out for us if we go out. I think we should consider other options.
The villain already has Fan Bingbing, Liu Yan, and Zhao Liying with him. We should be safe for now. Let's take the long view and discuss our plans."
Gulnazar also believed that rushing out was not a good choice.
Dilraba did not speak, she just sat on the sofa, devouring several cans of beef. She was sated.
It had been a long time since she had eaten something so delicious!
Compared to the junk food she had earlier, this canned beef was simply heavenly!
She scoffed at the unrealistic ideas of Han Hong and the others. In her eyes, these people were indecisive, timid, afraid of life and death, and overly self-righteous. She thought that following these people would definitely lead to nothing.
These people were like scattered sand.
Even if they really had to go out, she would never rush out with this group of fools. She would rather escape quietly one by one!
Dilraba let out a playful burp, pursed her lips, and watched these people as if she were watching a drama.
"No, we can't wait any longer! I feel like that villain is deliberately playing with us! If we wait until he gets tired of it and finds new targets, we'll all be in trouble! Besides, from what he said, it seems like he doesn't want to share food with us men! He wants to starve us!" Luo Jin looked at his beautiful wife in his arms, expressing his concerns.
For his beautiful and delicate wife, Luo Jin was enamored. Although Alex had spared them just now, he couldn't be sure if Alex would target his wife in the future.
If there was no food supply when they were desperate from hunger, even if he could resist making a deal with Alex, he feared his wife might not resist the temptation of food!
At that time, he might not be able to prevent his wife Tang Yan from putting on that shiny green hat!
However, he never expected that Tang Yan, nestled in his arms, would be the first to speak out against him.
"I... I think it's indeed very dangerous to rush out... How about we select a few capable people first... Let the first batch of capable individuals take control of the yacht, and the rest of us can break out later. That way, we'll have support," Tang Yan, hiding in Luo Jin's arms, timidly suggested.
Despite being very moved by her husband's brave performance just now, Tang Yan also saw his incompetence. Their lives were literally in someone else's hands, so what talk was there of self-protection? Stay tuned for updates on novelbuddy
Based on her and her husband's abilities, Tang Yan was crystal clear that rushing out would be tantamount to being cannon fodder. Staying here would actually be safer, especially since the villain was only interested in her beauty and had no intention of taking her life.
If she could live well with her husband, enduring a brief possession by that villain for the sake of food might be a compromise she was willing to make.
Moreover, since that villain has already spared them, why should they risk their lives to break out? Tang Yan's words suddenly left Luo Jin bewildered, inexplicably looking at his wife, feeling somewhat at a loss.
Soon, what started as a partial argument turned into a debate among the entire group. The majority of people stood up against Han Hong's proposal. Many female celebrities were even prepared to contribute themselves, willing to exchange their bodies for food and safety rather than venture into the dangerous breakout.
The chances of survival were too slim if they were to fight their way out!
They had become accustomed to using their advantages to rely on others for survival and gain more resources. As for dignity, it wasn't particularly important for these female stars, especially in such a post-apocalyptic world.
Most male celebrities, on the other hand, still felt lingering fear after witnessing Alex's dominance and ruthlessness. People like Cai Xukun were beaten to death right in front of them!
The fate of Cai Xukun and others could very well be their own in the future. Therefore, the majority of male celebrities here supported Han Hong's proposal, wanting to break out and seek another path for survival, even if it meant fighting to the death.
Two people who had not participated in the argument were Dilraba and another person. Dilraba sat alone in a corner, quietly listening to the debate, while inside the lounge, the sounds of intense fighting and shouting echoed.
At this moment, she suddenly felt curious. Judging by the sounds, the female celebrities inside seemed to be enjoying this kind of training. Should she also choose to go down this path?
Dilraba was startled by her sudden thoughts and instinctively shook her head, suppressing the embarrassing idea. No, she, Dilraba, was not that kind of person! She would rely on her own abilities to survive!
Just like how she climbed the ladder in the entertainment industry, step by step, relying on her efforts and perseverance to achieve her current status. Although much credit was due to her parents, more importantly, it was her own hard work!
She attained her current position and fame in the entertainment industry not because of any man! Dilraba, she didn't need to depend on any man to live well!
Apart from Dilraba, there was also Wang Baoqiang. Wang Baoqiang still wore a foolish smile, coldly observing the argument among these people, showing no intention of getting involved. In his view, these people were simply an arrogant joke. Thinking they could survive in the apocalypse with just their abilities was nothing short of a dream!
Wang Baoqiang had a clear understanding now. With his own strength, it was impossible to live with dignity. Being an accessory to the strong, becoming a dog to the strong, perhaps there might be a chance to survive. Otherwise, whether it was the zombies or the villain in the lounge, they could easily take their lives.
Wang Baoqiang knew that the reason the villain hadn't forced them or harmed them wasn't because he lacked the ability or feared them. Instead, it was because he enjoyed playing with the people here, relishing in manipulating these big celebrities.
To survive, the only hope was to please this villain, make him satisfied, make him feel that a former big star like you, now a dog, had some utility, so he would keep you around. Those who had no ability and didn't want to submit to the strong would eventually meet a miserable end.
"In fact, I've observed the surrounding environment. It's not impossible to break out from here!" Han Hong nodded to Zhang Yuxi, her face solemn as she spoke, "The number of zombies on the second floor and above is not significant. Right now, the monsters and most of the zombies are just guarding the main entrance!"
And the rear door of the grand theater directly leads to the riverside park. As long as we can rush to the riverside park and break through the blockade of zombies on that side, we can take control of the yacht. With the yacht, we can safely escape from here! Moreover, so far, I haven't seen any zombies or monsters in the river! I believe that once we reach the river, we'll be safe!
At that time, we just need to go downstream, find a new shelter, or set sail and reach nearby islands to establish our own refuge!"
Upon hearing Han Hong's plan, everyone present was invigorated. They stopped arguing and looked at each other in agreement. In their eyes, they saw a great deal of hope. Even Dilraba couldn't help but feel a bit tempted.
"It sounds good, but you've also seen it. While there aren't many zombies on the second floor, there are many zombies on the side of the riverside park. Do you know how many people might die trying to break through the zombie blockade there?"
"And, if we attract the attention of that monster, it might kill us all in a fit of anger!" Guan Riyao Dan sneered.
Being reminded by Guan Riyao Dan, Dilraba and a few others instantly understood. Han Hong wasn't trying to help everyone survive out of goodwill; she wanted to use those foolish people as cannon fodder. The plan was to attract the attention of zombies with those who had no abilities but wanted to break out with the help of others.
Meanwhile, Han Hong and the others with actual strength, being mutants, could take advantage of the distraction to break through the zombie blockade, ensuring their escape.
Escape to safety!
Although several of them guessed it, no one spoke out. The monster sent less and less food every day, not enough for so many people. For them, the death of a few fools would actually be a good thing!
