My Doomsday Territory

Chapter 34 Objection



Chapter 34 Objection

Translator: SumTLMan

Before taking down the names, Chen Haiping stepped forward and said: “Every second and every minute is precious during the doomsday. I will make a long story short. No matter what each survivor chooses, the shelter will always be the barrier which protects humans from the demonized beasts. In the time which follows, I hope everyone will line up in an orderly fashion. No matter whether people decide to become permanent resident staff members or foreign workers. They will have to first register some of their basic personal information over here.”

“When registering basic information, of those who wish to be the shelter’s permanent resident staff member. They can apply for the various positions according to their personal wishes and professional ability… In the near future, the shelter will conduct simple assessments of the applicants…”

After Chen Haiping had said this, the scene was quiet for a moment before some of the survivors were ready to line up and begin.

All of a sudden…

There was a voice full of resentment amongst the crowd as if this person had been grievously wronged by the shelter.

“The notice says that after becoming a permanent resident staff member, one must obey the job assignment of the shelter. So how do we know if the shelter will arrange for us to die?!”

The survivors who were preparing to line up had suddenly come to a standstill.

Not everyone trusts the shelter and some of the survivors who were saved because of the shelter’s timely rescue may not even have been grateful.

This is human nature.

Moreover, this statement happens to express their inner worries.

Chen Haiping’s face became a little dark as his eyes swept through the crowd. But he saw no signs of the speaker.

Obviously…

They had prepared in advance and had already long been hidden in the crowd, just waiting for an opportunity to make a move.

Although Chen Haiping had thought today’s event wouldn’t go off without a hitch. But he didn’t expect that some of the survivors were in such a hurry. They had gone out of their way to come and cause trouble before the registration had even began.

What the hell could these survivors want?!

Chen Haiping’s expression became serious as he said: “The shelter will never arrange for anyone to die or assign an impossible task. If this is in doubt, or one simply doesn’t wish to believe, or one simply can’t stand the constraints of the new system. Then one can just identity as a foreign worker so they can still stay in the shelter.”

“Well, if we don’t become a permanent resident staff member or disobey your orders, the shelter will cut down our food and kick us out of the shelter! Is this the choice we’ve been given?!”

The shrill voice sounded again.

This voice caused a commotion among the crowd, with some of the survivors whispering to each other as the scene was gradually deteriorating into an uncontrollable situation.

Chen Haiping looked calm as he sternly stared in one direction.

This time, he found the owner of the voice. contemporary romance

It was an awakened one and one of the few people he kept tabs on.

As he was about to say something.

A faint voice drifted in…

“This is our shelter.”

“In here, you must abide by our rules. If you cannot do so, then you are free to leave.”

“Now is the time for registration. The notice clearly states that you have the right to choose. But in here, I would like to add one more thing…

“You have no right to question our arrangements.”

This voice felt like a breeze blowing across the cheek.

Bringing along a cold meaning which chills even to the bones.

The other survivors gasped, and all of them paused to breathe.

Following the sound of the voice, they saw three figures coming out of the villa area.

Led by a young man in a tracksuit, he was followed by a strong man and a girl wearing a cloak.

“It’s Steel Faced Captain Roger!”

“And the Ice Goddess!”

Roger was a common sight among the survivors and came to be known as Steel Faced Roger because of his often stoic expression.

Elaine on the other hand… It wasn’t as though the survivors had ever seen Elaine in action. But given Elaine’s cold demeanour which was faintly visible through her hood. This made the survivors feel it was simply impossible to reach her.

This is the name used in private discussions. Naturally, they dare not shout this name out loud in front of her face.

As the demonized beasts around the shelter become increasingly scarce, most of the latecomers had no chance to see the two people in action.

Only those who had first arrived at the shelter have seen their terrifying power which brought them sincere awe and heartfelt admiration for Elaine and Roger.

Ahead of them was Tang Yu, whom many of the survivors hadn’t met but whose identity could be guessed as the leader of the shelter.

Ding Qiang’s eyes were slightly dignified.

This is the first time he has closely observed the mysterious leader of the shelter.

He has never underestimated the shelter… And has made several plans in order to succeed in his goals today.

Suddenly, he was stupefied.

“Why is there no aura of an awakened one? Is Leader Tang just an ordinary person?!”

He couldn’t believe an ordinary person became the shelter leader.

Then Ding Qiang smiled.

If Leader Tang, one of the “top three” in the shelter, is just an ordinary person. Then the probability of success has risen from 90 to 100%.

Begin!

On the other side, several survivors are watching the events unfold.

“Third, when that guy Ding Qiang came to see us yesterday, how could you just say no?”

The young man with glasses, called Third, lifted his glass frame and said: “What else could I say? Should I have followed these idiots to try and negotiate terms and conditions with the shelter?”

The large, burly man next to him spoke in a regretful tone and said: “Don’t refuse so decisively. If they succeed, then we will be losing a lot.”

The young glasses man shook his head and said: “If we waver, we will be treated the same as Ding Qiang and his gang by the shelter, by that point…”

After saying this, he spoke no more.

Forced to become prisoners, this left several of his men unwilling to stay as such. However, the young man with glasses is more rational. The power of the shelter is certainly not as simple as it appears. The towering city wall and the puppets only reveal the essence of the shelter.

Even though these are all master strokes of a “person with special abilities.” This only show this “person with special abilities” is dreadfully strong.

…………

At this time, the order was restored again.

The survivors began registering, and a long line soon formed in front of the desk.

Secretly, Ding Qiang frowned.

Originally, he thought that with this incident just now, it would’ve been enough to arouse some of the repressed desires within the survivors. However, he didn’t expect that so many of the survivors still chose to believe in the shelter.

As an awakened one, he doesn’t understand the difficulties faced by these ordinary survivors. He was fortunate enough to only arrive at decent shelters. Regardless of his doubts, these people will not hesitate to join with a shelter which treats them so well.

If for nothing else, they can join the shelter for food which can fill their bellies.

Although somewhat unexpected, he wasn’t discouraged.

Making the survivors lose trust in the shelter was just a preparatory plan.

It will naturally save a lot of trouble if they can succeed. But even if it doesn’t, he believes it can at least plant the seeds of doubt in many of the hearts of the survivors.

Next, he has three follow up plans, A B and C!

This is his years of planning experience in action and involved more than a few hands to prepare. It was absolutely foolproof!

Ding Qiang gave a cryptic smile.

He shouted loudly and said: “Wait, I have an objection!”

“I don’t care what system your shelter wants to follow. But if you want us awakened ones to work for you with just a few simple words, then that would be too insincere.”

“Our requirements aren’t high. According to the other shelters, as awakened ones, we should at least be afforded the same position as guests of honour and given the due courtesy… On normal days, our activities shouldn’t be restricted, we should also be provided with an abundance of food and accommodations. Of course, we will also contribute. We can do tasks such as managing the survivors or helping fend off the demonized beast attacks.”

Managing the survivors? For them, this wasn’t a contribution at all, but a chance to squeeze the oil and water out from the survivors.

As for fending off the demonized beast attacks? Ding Qiang also had his own plans. Anyway, just his meaning should be fine. If the shelter cannot hold up, he definitely wouldn’t hesitate to be first to slip away.

He is already familiar with this sort of activity.

He had once stayed in a small-sized shelter. When the shelter’s survivors were being slaughtered by the demonized beasts, he had already made off with the shelter’s food reserves.

After Ding Qiang had spoken. Several other awakened ones, who were apart of his plan, echoed his sentiments in succession.

“That’s right! The welfare benefit should be higher than the amount of food we are normally provided, about two or three times as much as before.”

“We should also each receive a residence. One awakened one per villa shouldn’t be too much to ask. Without the protection of the awakened ones, where can the shelter be safe?”

Ding Qiang had an expression of certain victory and waited for the shelter’s response.

The survivors who lined up were also attracted by the commotion.

Many of the survivors noticed that this Ding Qiang must be inseparable from the voice of objection at the beginning.

They also saw that even if this looks like an opportunity for the shelter given the offer of terms and conditions. It wouldn’t be too much to say this was a veiled threat. However, most of the survivors still hope Leader Tang will come down and agree.

Although what Ding Qiang requests is a bit excessive, what he said wasn’t without merit or precedent.

If Leader Tang refuses and there aren’t enough awakened ones, what will the shelter do to resist the demonized beasts?

The most important foundation for a shelter is to have a safe environment. This foundation of safety comes from the presence of awakened ones.
