Plan for Public Opinions, Show Attitudes

Only the official, the army and larger squads of each section knew that the six major families had taken the advantage to keep Xing, Mo, Ye and Shu families in captivity. Others, such as ordinary survivors, didn't know a thing. They were only misled to discuss about Yun Che's almighty space. And of course, the higher level also managed to hide the news concerning mutant human beings.

"Grandpa and the others should be fine for now, but they might do something desperate if we keep on like this. We've tried to send high-level superfunction possessors to rescue them, negotiate with the six families, and we even sent an army but none of them works. They have made up their mind to catch Che and force him to hand over the so-called almighty space."

In the spacious conference room, apart from Xing Feng and his brother and sister, Ye Xingchen, Jiang Shang, Luo Haitao and Ji Wenxi, the officers of the Xing and Mo Army were also there. Xing Xu briefed what was going on. Since they didn't know about the space, they told their own people that the circulating rumor was nonsense and that someone deliberately spread it to hurt the Xing Family. So far, the army was still relatively stable.

However, Xing Xu and Xing Le felt that the Space might exist for real, because when the kids made progress, they saw with their own eyes that they disappeared and reappeared. But since they didn't tell them, they didn't ask. On the night of the kids' birthday, they returned through the space corridor. Soon afterwards, the news that Yun Che had an almighty space traveled to every base, so even they had doubts, the only thing they could do was to defend Yun Che and deny the rumor.

"It is true that Che had an inhabitable space where we can raise livestock and plant crops."

However, as Xing Feng swept over them, he straightforwardly admitted that there was indeed a space. Xing Xu and Xing Le were fine, but those officers started discussing. Xing Le and Xing Xu had been denying it all this time, and they felt they were cheated. But they were still calm. The old men had done a good job managing the army so they didn't do anything irrational.

"The old man and my sister and brother didn't know about this. Think about it, since someone has exposed it, everyone will know the truth sooner or later, so if they knew about the truth, why risk being resented to deny it?"

Quietly watching their reactions and listening to their conversations, Xing Feng added. In order to rescue his family and solve this crisis, he must first appease his own people, otherwise there was a good chance that he would be hurt by his own people in the future.

"Feng has a point. We know Xu and Le since they were kids, we can trust them. For all these years, has the Xing Family ever treated us poorly? Wang, two years before the doomsday, your son fought with people from North China Military Region in the military exercises. If not for the old chief, the North China Army would have sent your son to the court martial. Gong, a piece of flesh in your arm was bitten off by a zombie, if Xu didn't stop us, and insisted only to kill you after you were turned into a zombie, you wouldn't be here today, right? Everyone here is the backbone of us Xing and Mo armies, can any of you claim that you've never benefited from the Xing and Mo families? In the earthquake and snow storm couple of years ago, if Feng and Mr. Mo didn't tell us about the bone-dissolving blood vine, many of us here, including your families, would have been dead, right?"

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties and had the badge of lieutenant general on his shoulder looked over everyone present, eyes blazing with anger. He was no other than Gu Mingxuan's father, Gu Haixun, a lieutenant general of the Xing Army. He was inspecting the troops with Xing Xu when the incident happened so he was now here. Otherwise, he would've been kept captivity.

"Gu, what're you talking about? We didn't say anything, did we? I, Wang Jianshan, owe the Xing Family. We are old comrades, and your words are just too hurtful."

"Yeah, General Gu. It's just that Xu told us earlier that the space was real so we were just a little confused."

"I was born a man of the Xing Army, and will die a ghost of the Xing Army. To hell with the Space. Since Captain Yun had the space, he's not going to treat us poorly, right?"

"Yeah, if it weren't for the Captain Yun, how can we feed ourselves every day in the past two years? Look at what is happening after the news about the space spread? Captain Yun made a good choice not telling us because who knows if someone will tell others about this?"

"Well, surely the Mo Army will stay behind the third young master."

"Yeah…"

After the two named by Gu Haixun made their stance clear, others all agreed. They were not greed, but they knew what they were capable of. Even they had the space, could they even guard it? Now that Yun Che had the Space, and the other major families already dared to keep their chief in captivity. If it were them, they would've already been killed. Surely the space was important, it was more important that they would be able to live to enjoy it. Moreover, Yun Che had given them so many lands so that they could plant crops. He also provided them with mutant beasts to guard the land and he never treated them poorly. They strongly believe that he was not going to treat them badly in the future.

These people were all smart and they could see things clear. One of their own had the Space so why bother fell out with Yun Che like the six major families had done? There were various kinds of person. Some were born a king, while others could only be a servant no matter how hard they tried. If everyone wanted be a king, the world would be left in chaos.

"It seems that you are all perspicacious. Then I'll be straight with you. The space is real but that space is going to disappear soon because Che is going to integrate it with the Earth. Someone told us that as long as we integrate the two, zombies will disappear and the doomsday will end. That is the real blessing of mankind. Until then, we will not hand the Space to anyone else, and I hope you can guard it with us and work for the future of mankind."

Xing Feng stood up and looked at them deeply. As a superior, once you understood the psychology of your subordinates, it was not difficult to gain their loyalty.

"Really?"

The crowd raised their heads in disbelief. If the doomsday could end, that would be the greatest news ever.

Meeting their suspicious gaze, Xing Feng nodded, "You guys probably know what kind of person I am, and a lot of you have known us since we were kids. How can I joke about things like this? Even the doomsday ends, China will not be as prosperous as it was before the doomsday, and the human civilization will be years, tens of years or even hundreds of years backward. However, as long as zombies no longer exist and there are no longer so many natural calamities, we humans must be able to have a better life and reconstruct our home and civilization."

Xing Feng's words convinced everyone. If there were no more zombies, then what else were they afraid of? After years of the Anti-Japanese war, there was a long period that they couldn't feed themselves or keep themselves warm, but they all survived, didn't they? Now though the population decreased, as long as there were no zombies or natural calamities, and crops could grow in the land, they would have a bright future.

"What about superfunction? Will we still have our superfunction?"

After a short discussion, one of them shook his head and asked.

"Yes, and at the same time, the mutant beasts and mutant plants will stay here as well."

Looking towards him, Xing Feng shook his head. And there would be more demon beasts, but Xing Feng was not going to tell them about this. Since he had achieved his purpose, there was no need to reveal to them other things.

"We'll be fine as long as there are no zombies."

Hearing that, the crowd unanimously agreed that it was not a problem. In the doomsday, zombies and zombie beasts were the most horrendous ones. They not only ate people but pollute the land, destroying their hope of survival from the root. Other things were less terrifying.

"Very well. Then we are all agreed. Please, we need you to quietly spread the news that we can end the doomsday. You are all smart so you don't need me to tell you what to do, right?

Public opinion was often a double-edged sword. If Xuan Tian could use it to cause them trouble, they could make use of it to solve the problem. Nowadays, being an anonymous saint was never a good idea. Why couldn't they advertise their contribution?

"Sure, we know what to do."

They were all senior officers, so if they couldn't even handle trivial things like this, it would be a shame.

Xing Feng nodded in satisfaction. Ye Xingchen suddenly sat upright, "Sorry, please allow me to interject."

The room instantly quieted down as everyone turned to looked at them. They all knew he was one of Peak and the Young Master of the Ye Family.

"Thank you all, I just want to say that, Captain Xing only told you the key points and left out many details. Actually, the doomsday is caused by a man named Xuan Tian. Believe it or not, he is the only god on Earth, though he's already demonized. In the meanwhile, he's been collaborating with the Northeast Base. I guess I don't have to tell you how strong he is for he could create the doomsday. And for Che to merge the Space with the Earth, we'll have to kill Xuan Tian. And you all know how difficult it is. I hope that when you spread the news, you can emphasize on these. Che has been working his head off these two years to improve his strength is to defeat him and save the human kind. But now everyone thinks we are the villain. If this keeps going on, then sorry, Che has told us that he will only take our own people into the Space to create a brand-new world. Then it is none of our business whether the people outside survive or not."

As he approached the end, the smile on Ye Xingchen's face disappeared and he looked cold. He was telling them that they were not asking for a favor, and if it were not for people outside, they could've chosen an easier way and there was no need to risk their lives. Now they all treated Che as the villain and wanted to enjoy the benefit brought by him. How was that possible? If he didn't teach them a lesson now, they would believe that they could always bully them.

"Mr. Ye, please rest assured. We promise to tell all bases that Captain Yun is doing it for the sake of all mankind!"

After a short silence, the general who previously asked if the superfunction would disappear stood up pounding his chest. Then others also stood up. They did not echo, but gave a military salute to them in unison. Ye Xingchen also stood up and bowed slightly, "Thank you, everyone!"

"Alright, everyone, now let's get to work. I'll look for you guys again if something comes up."

Seeing that he had made things clear, Xing Feng said in a timely manner. The officers did not ask further questions and left the conference room. They had known everything now, and next it depended on how they were going to act.
