Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster! Chapter 251 - 104: Manipulating the Beast Tide?

"So according to their account, a large number of monsters appeared in Jurong Town, and soone also saw traces of warriors wearing heavy armor?"

Standing opposite Ji Xing, Chen Jian frowned and asked:

"What does that an? I can understand the monsters, but the armored warriors—could they be soldiers from the chanical God Sect’s Guard Brigade?"

"Did they battle with the monsters, which affected Jurong Town and caused its destruction?"

"Maybe it’s not that simple."

Ji Xing furrowed his brows tightly, recalled for a mont, and then said:

"They ntioned so details."

"The armored warriors appeared behind the monsters and seed not to engage directly with them."

"The monsters first entered Jurong Town, caused a large number of casualties, and then left by themselves."

"Afterwards, the armored warriors appeared on the outskirts, but only briefly surveyed the situation in Jurong before retreating, and they were pursuing in the direction the monsters went."

"Compared to ’combat,’ the actions of those armored warriors seed more like so form of ’hunting.’"

"They seed to be trying to drive the monsters to a specific location, but their purpose... is unclear."

"Understood."

Chen Jian nodded thoughtfully, then continued to ask:

"Have you seen this kind of battle strategy before? Drive and then hunt?"

"...To be honest, this tactic is not uncommon."

Ji Xing instinctively touched the 191 rifle hanging on his chest, then replied:

"But whether it’s the Holy Blood or the chanical God Sect, they always conduct reconnaissance and try to avoid civilians as much as possible before doing this."

"If it causes significant civilian losses, we are also held accountable."

"Such a scenario is not unheard of, but it is indeed quite rare... It’s really hard to guess what they’re actually up to."

"Indeed."

Chen Jian exhaled a long breath and then said:

"Anyway, let’s first arrange proper accommodations for the refugees."

"We are short on population, so having people co over is a good thing."

"But don’t let them enter the 011 core area—provide them one al a day, and let them use the trees chopped down by Fu Xi to build shelters on the open ground outside."

"They will need to solve their survival issues themselves later, or work to earn their keep."

"We will only provide them with the most basic safety protection, just like what the chanical God Sect and the Holy Blood Temple do."

"Understood."

Ji Xing imdiately nodded to accept the order, then conveyed Chen Jian’s commands to the refugees still waiting in place.

Eleven people knelt gratefully, and this ti, the person who said "Stand up, no kneeling is allowed" was Ji Xing.

Soon, the refugee team ate the simple food cooked by Fu Xi.

When the porridge with jerky, steaming hot, was placed in front of them, their hands trembled as they received the bowls.

"Eat."

Ji Xing said with a slightly cold tone:

"You can stay, but we won’t feed you."

"If you want to survive and eat, you have to work."

"Work! We can work!"

The leading man didn’t care about cooling the hot porridge and swallowed it in a few bites, inhaling sharply several tis before continuing:

"We have five won and two children, we can offer them all to the lords!"

"The won can all bear children and also work!"

"We just beg to stay. If we’re not welco here, after resting, we can leave as well..."

"There’s no better place than here."

Ji Xing sneered:

"You’re not still thinking about going to Jinling City to join the chanical God Sect, are you?"

"Stop dreaming, they won’t provide for you."

The leader’s face froze at these words. It was only then that he snapped back from his shock and began to carefully observe everything around him.

He couldn’t understand what he saw before him nor knew what these things ant.

He couldn’t even perceive the ’good’ in these things.

It was rely a subconscious feeling, perhaps this is what a true ’great power’ should look like.

But now, this woman with extraordinarily quick movents—obviously a Holy Blood individual—was telling him not to think about joining the chanical God Sect?

So you are... not the chanical God Sect?

"Sir..."

The man hesitantly spoke and then asked:

"Is this... the Holy Blood Temple?"

"No, this is the Huaxia Army."

Ji Xing simply replied and then turned to leave, without giving further explanation.

The man, anwhile, quickly finished the last of the at porridge, and then glared fiercely at the won in the group, snatching the remaining half-bowl of porridge from them.

The already weak won seed used to this and did not resist.

Seeing this scene, Xie Liu wanted to step forward to stop it, but Chen Jian and Ji Xing both prevented her.

"Don’t."

Chen Jian said in a low voice:

"They are not our own people yet; they need to operate by their own rules."

"We can’t always pretend to be the benevolent officials; that would only add to our burden."

"But they... it’s unfair."

Xie Liu asked with so confusion:

"Aren’t we always talking about fairness?"

"Fairness is fought for, not granted from above."

Chen Jian explained:

"Yellow Stone City can get fairness from us because they’ve gone through screening and proven themselves in battle."

"You Holy Blood individuals receive fairness because you made the right choice from the start."

"And them? What have they done?"

"If they want fairness, do they expect our ’grace’?"
