The destruction of the Wei Empire by the plague is now followed by the death of Emperor Shi. No one thought that the destruction was getting closer to the most advanced Empire that ever existed.
'Destroyed by his own brain' as the other Empire's people called it. Huge shocks occurred on both sides as well, the Qing Empire and the Shang Empire. However, the Wei Empire maintained their stability until the day seven days after the leader's death.
Under the light of the sun at the headquarters of the Central Military Faction, precisely at a fairly spacious enclosed space with one of the roofs open ten people gathered including Xin Chen and Lang, watching the burning of medicine, were, important data as well as the destruction of the key of Laboratory B-1. The key that can access a lot of things is important to the crazy researchers out there.
Xin Chen made sure absolutely, there was nothing left there but ashes. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. Wen on the side of the commander of the Central Military Faction clapped.
"We stopped one of the apocalypse, it's thanks to you, man!" he shouted with joy.
The commander of the Central Military Faction approached Xin Chen with pride in the face.
"Well, right. Without it I don't know what else these rotten people would do to humans. I thank you, Chen. By the way, my name is Xe Chang. Sorry to introduce myself, "is friendly. I was embarrassed to think that Xin Chen was unbelievable.
"I also thank you guys, I found what I was looking for in Central Central. Now it's time to continue"
The loud bang immediately shocked the people in the entire room. It should have been a secret room that was heavily guarded by some people outside. There was a fight going on, Xin Chen smelled the scent of blood and the sound of violence out there.
Without a second thought, he immediately got out of there.
Seeing Yu, Three, Yian, Shuo and dozens of men from the Southeast Campground staring at him full of anger.
"I hope you don't betray us, Chen." The heavy voice of the Three decided the gripping silence between the two parties.
Xe Chang and his men had prepared for the return of bloodshed. It was unexpected that the Night Protector people got to the deepest place in the headquarters and found them.
And from his guts, it seemed that Yu was indeed deliberately looking for Xin Chen. The young man was silent for a long time, Yu's voice was very disappointed to see that one of his colleagues had sided with their nemesis.
"I thought you were helping us because you thought we were your brothers. But is it only because we can't help you to the Central that you're stepping on us?"
"Three, I just wanted to tell you. You must know the pain of losing the family you love."
But Three no longer showed his concern to Xin Chen. He was disappointed with Yian as well.
"Save your apologies later, at least we know which side you're on. Once you get out there and meet us, don't expect your life to be safe."
Xe Chang lowered his weapon.
"The anti-military attitude that bet lives to protect you always makes me sick. I feel like I want to resign from this position. Why would I protect people who don't even expect to be protected?"
He advanced, facing Yu who had been his greatest enemy all along.
"As he said. Everyone here is fighting for his life and the people around him. The only option is, want you to join someone else who is also fighting for the same thing. Or break up and hurt each other. Then we'll all die not from the plague, but from killing each other!"
"Slow your voice, damn it!"
Three suddenly attacked Xe Chang, he pulled the collar of the man's shirt and brought his wrathful face closer in anger.
"Don't talk like you know best! United say? I worked for someone like you! For the sake of my wife's child, who you say will be guaranteed to take to Central! But what-?!" His voice was very loud and also vibrated, occasionally sounding the man like he was crying.
"You threw them in the street! While I serve my duty, and as I search for them ... All I got was a lump of lifeless meat and it was still going pitifully. Where to ... Where is your sweet promise ...?"
Xe Chang lowered his face, not trying to take off the grip on his shirt.
"It's not just you, everyone loses. If you think we threw your family away, then you're wrong. People who take them to the Central may experience the same things as them. Not everyone can get through the sea of the undead. Even you yourself ..."
Three let go of his grip.
Yu turned to look at Xin Chen. "What can I hear from you, say. Are you really working with them? Even if you knew Tiga had sworn an oath and was going to kill this man?"
"The Central Military Faction is on your side. To protect the people of the Southeastern Campground from getting infected out there. Along the way in the Pine forest are clean as they always guard it, outside of posts and other major roads. Every infected that entered has been wiped out. I'm on the side of the Central Military Faction, which means I'm on your side as well."
He explained as he looked at the others, "I recently got word of a new virus being created by my greatest enemy. He cooperated with researchers in this Empire and planned a large-scale extermination. Not only the Wei Empire, the Shang Empire and the others would be affected. And not necessarily they provide medicine for everyone. They intend to eliminate. And create a new world under their own rule."
Yu could hardly believe what he had just heard.
"I pursued them, from the laboratory of B-1 all the way to Central Central. And ..."
"Involved in the conflict in the Empire?" Yu gave a gesture, Three docked next to Yu.
Xe Chang started to know where this conversation was headed. Of all them, none of them did not know the news of Emperor Shi's death. And the murderous features written in the massively held competition seemed to refer to Xin Chen.
"My friend ..." Wen held his breath hearing it, this is a serious matter that cannot be played around. Xin Chen must have known very well his actions.
"You're willing to get involved in a complicated matter, just to save this empire and the people out there?" Shuo was thinking realistically, where there were people who were willing to take such dangerous actions. The body won't be forgiven, that's obvious. Even he will be rewarded with severe punishment.
"Then? Do I have to sit idly by and wait for the plague to destroy us all?"
"I'm not just doing this for one side."
Yu and Xe Chang fell silent to each other. The word directly hit them.
"You should know, the Central Military Faction, the Night Protector or the defectors out there are nothing more than ordinary humans fighting for their lives. What is wrong with being at peace and side by side. If you can't work together at least don't argue with each other. Until all this is over and things go back to normal ... I'm sure, when everything's okay, you're not gonna be like this."
"Sometimes that kill us are not just the plague, but the people themselves."
Xe Chang took a heavy breath. The words he wanted to convey had been voiced by Xin Chen directly to the chief at the Southeast Campground. At least even if it only entered the left ear out the right ear, the woman caught Xin Chen's intentions.
They shouldn't be at odds just because of the plague that shook this empire.
"I understand." Yu finally made a sound.
"You fought for your mother, didn't you?"
"You know that."
Yu stared at the people of the Central Military Faction sharply. "Peace is important, but you can't replace the lives of my comrades who have been lost to your actions."
Xe Chang accepted that. Understanding him, on his part as well he lost a lot of people.
Xin Chen had not expected Three to suddenly pat her on the shoulder.
"Once again you move beyond my knowledge, don't expect you to return to the Southeast Camp."
"You forgive me?" Xin Chen asked.
"You've looked like your own child, don't be afraid. Anyway ... I know a little bit about what happened to my wife's son. Although it is unclear. It's possible that the person sent to pick them up was also killed, I've been looking for them in the attack a few days ago. And in fact they are gone too. It's obvious."
"I'm so sorry for your family."
"It's okay. Thank you." Thank you."
Yian advanced in front of Yu and mediated with Xe Chang. "Right they say, we must put an end to this dispute. What's wrong with making a peace treaty?"
Xe Chang folded both his hands. "We may be able to share a small supply of food and medicine for you. Since the lack of members the needs in this place also decreased. I think you need more."
Yu silently thought of a few things, smiling faintly. "In our place there are many forges and sellers of materials that you may need."
Both sides ended peacefully. They discussed a little longer, discussing a few things while negotiating.
Xin Chen was quite calm now. Reconciling two parties fighting each other is difficult, but by being open and communicating they can overcome this problem peacefully.
Wen invited others to celebrate the peace with a small event on the roof. Including Xin Chen in it. Lang himself took the whole piece of venison that was burned specifically for him. Xin Chen sat next to the wolf.
"You're more silent. What's up?"
Everyone around them was partying. But not with Lang. His face was hard to guess, and even more so Lang seemed anxious about something.
"The sound of the feet is so crowded ... And the smell of bloodshed."
Lang stared far ahead.
"We have to move before everything turns chaotic."
"You feel it?" Xin Chen could not guess where the unease crept within him from. But he also felt what Lang felt.
Terrified. Like when he was first in the Death Labyrinth and saw hundreds of thousands of corpses about to chase after him.
"They are growing ... If they arrive at this place, everything will perish."
