Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 1240 - 1240 510 Ocean Base_3

Chapter 1240: Chapter 510 Ocean Base_3 Chapter 1240: Chapter 510 Ocean Base_3 These people were alive, but that was about all.

Mammoth Base did not hide anything from Yao Hai, and they told him that once a survivor arrived at their base and accepted their food and living space, the survivor’s life no longer belonged to themselves, but to them, as their personal property!

Calling them personal property was putting it mildly, in plainer terms, they were essentially slaves.

They could demand these survivors to do anything, and the survivors had no right to refuse!

Seeing this, Yao Hai did not want his base to merge with this place anymore.

Although Mammoth Base stated that Yao Hai would certainly be one of the masters and that they would not harm Yao Hai and his people’s interests.

But if Yao Hai had wanted to play the role of a Local Tyrant, he would have done so already. He really had no interest in these things and even found them repellent.

However, Yao Hai was indecisive, after all, the people at their base were hardly surviving, and what if the survivors were willing?

So Yao Hai did not rush to leave but continued his visit.

Then he discovered something that he found even more unacceptable—
The Rift was not necessarily safe inside, as the area outside the base was very dangerous. Mammoth Base had these survivors mine, labor, and even venture into the depths to explore!

Mining was one thing; at worst, they would be tired. But exploring could lead to death, and looking at Mammoth Base’s data, the mortality rate was extremely high!

Yao Hai felt that joining Mammoth Base was akin to being tortured before being sent to die… It might be better to die sooner.

Added to that, Su Jie remained by his side, implying that he should refuse, so Yao Hai refused.

The people from Mammoth Base did not say much, only that they would give Yao Hai time to consider, as their base was always there and always open to Ocean Base.

Afterward, Zou Jian would visit Ocean Base from time to time.

Although Yao Hai disliked Mammoth Base, there was currently no conflict between them, so to prevent Zou Jian from freezing to death outside, he ordered that Zou Jian be let in if he came alone.

Hence, Zou Jian became a regular visitor here.

But now, Zou Jian was pressuring Yao Hai on behalf of Mammoth Base to make a decision.

Yao Hai did not want to, but after all, it was the lives of more than a thousand people…

“Maybe we should just merge with Mammoth Base?”

Finally, someone spoke up.

“You know what that means.”

Yao Hai’s expression did not look good.

Ordinary survivors might not be very clear about Mammoth Base’s situation, aware that they might end up doing hard labor, but those in their leadership knew that ordinary survivors were likely to die if they went there.

“But we have no choice… And after all, General, your status will be exceptional there…”

Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.

Zou Jian had said that if they went over with Yao Hai, they couldn’t possibly be treated as slaves and that they could even live better than they do now! After all, the rules and regulations set by Yao Hai were too restrictive for them. Over there, masters could do whatever they liked to their slaves…

If they really went, it would be tantamount to exchanging the interests of the ordinary survivors for their own benefits. Although it sounded somewhat contemptible, to be fair, they had done all they could for these survivors; perhaps it was time for these survivors to give something back?

Knock knock knock!

Just then, the door to the conference room was suddenly knocked on.

“Come in.”

As Yao Hai’s voice fell, a figure hurriedly rushed in.

“General, it’s bad! There’s an eagle of enormous size and terrifying presence circling above us! It feels like we’ve been targeted!”

…

It was over!

Hearing this, a chill went down everyone’s spine.

They had seen the terror of Mutant Flying Beasts before when they were fleeing, especially the birds of prey – they held grudges! If they were targeted by that thing, they could forget about leaving; to show themselves was to die!

They couldn’t even get out, so how could they merge with Mammoth Base… It seemed like their last hope was gone… It was all over!
