Chapter 2456: Chapter 2447 man-eating
Translator: 54969033
After turning around and returning to the hall, Jiang Fei saw that the hall was littered with corpses. Clearly, the instigator of this incident was Conan.
“What happened?”Jiang Fei asked.
“Master, it’s like this...”Conan recounted what had happened.
It turned out that after Jiang Fei had chased after the girl, a few hungry fellows who had not eaten anything finally turned their attention to Conan. After all, the huge sandwich in Conan’s hand was too tempting.
Although this kind of simple fast food might not be good for free people, in the underground prison, this kind of food was like a delicacy from heaven, therefore, these hungry guys could not help but attack Conan.
However, the problem was that Conan was not someone to be trifled with. With more than 10 million combat power, he could not withstand a single blow from Jiang Fei. However, in the underground prison, he was a top-notch expert. In addition, he had just finished eating and drinking, meanwhile, those unlucky fellows were so hungry that their eyes were blurry. There was no way to calculate the difference in combat power between them.
Therefore, the first few people who made a move were quickly defeated by Conan. After that, Conan also showed his cruel side. He did not dare to distribute the food that Jiang Fei gave him without permission, however, he could freely control the unlucky prisoners that he killed.
Therefore, when the other people who were eager to attack him, he only said one word, and all the unlucky people who attacked him became the target of public criticism.
“Whoever helps me kill them, he will not only get his spoils of war, but also these corpses!”Conan’s words made more prisoners go crazy. A large number of corpses meant a large amount of food, moreover, it was high-quality meat. This was very tempting in the underground prison.
In this place where food was scarce, cannibalism was nothing new. The prisoners usually did not kill each other, just to maintain this delicate balance, after all, killing people at the same time meant that they could be killed back. Even if they killed their opponents, they could also injure themselves or consume a large amount of physical strength, thus being targeted by others.
Therefore, unless it was a last resort, the prisoners rarely attacked others. After all, it was too risky to do so.
But now, there were three or four corpses on the ground. In addition to the opponents that they had killed, they could obtain a large amount of food at once. They might even be able to live on a full stomach for a month, this kind of temptation was very fatal to the prisoners who were so hungry that their eyes turned blue.
Thus, a chaotic battle began. The starving prisoners fought each other while Conan watched from the side and laughed loudly.
Of course, not all the prisoners participated in the battle. Experts like Conan all watched coldly from the side. These people’s combat strength was basically above five million, they were usually the kings of the underground prison. Although food was scarce and the quality was not good, people like them had never been hungry.
Therefore, these people would not personally participate in the battle for a few corpses. After the battle was over, the victors would take the initiative to offer a portion of their spoils of war.
When Jiang Fei returned, the battle had just ended. The remaining four to five people were panting heavily. Their bodies were emitting a strong smell of blood. Other than the blood on the bodies of the dead, almost all of them were also killed.
Because of Jiang Fei’s arrival, neither the experts nor the victors were in a hurry to distribute the corpses. They all looked at Jiang Fei quietly, not knowing what he was trying to do.
“I don’t want this to happen again.”Jiang Fei’s voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.
“Yes! Master!”Conan was shocked. He had thought that his work would be praised by Jiang Fei, but he did not expect Jiang Fei to be unhappy when he saw this scene.
“Okay! Follow Me!”Jiang Fei nodded. Then, he led Conan into a mine.
Although Jiang Fei had killed countless people since he was born, he still hated the sight of people eating people. However, Jiang Fei did not intend to change anything. The people in the underground prison had long lost their humanity, they were just like the pirates. They had no value for redemption.
Even if they were wronged prisoners, as long as they adapted to the environment and survived here, the mentality of these people would be twisted. In this environment where people ate people.., kind people could only become food for others.
After Jiang Fei and Conan left the hall, the remaining prisoners swarmed up and began to distribute the corpses according to their rules. In the end, the victors all brought their own corpses.., they returned to their own quarters with satisfaction.
“Conan, let me ask you, how many prisoners are there in total?”Jiang Fei asked Conan after turning a few corners.
“Master, I’m not too sure about that. There are at least a hundred people now, right?”Conan frowned and said. Although everyone knew about every new prisoner in the hall, there were people dying in the underground prison every day, therefore, it was hard to say how many people were left.
“100 people? That should be enough...”Jiang Fei nodded to himself. Then, he said to Conan, “Now, I’ll give you a task.”
“Master, please feel free to say it,”said Conan immediately.
“I want you to promise me that from today onwards, there will be no private fights in the entire dungeon for at least 10 days!”Said Jiang Fei.
“Master, this might be a little troublesome...”Conan did not immediately agree with Jiang Fei.
“Oh?”Jiang Fei raised his eyebrows.
“Master, don’t be angry. It’s not that I don’t want to do it. It’s just that the food that the guards have dropped is very limited. It’s not enough for the people at the bottom level to survive. Therefore, in order to survive, we have to follow the law of the jungle,”said Conan helplessly, if they could not ensure sufficient food, then no matter how much they tried to suppress it, the hungry prisoners would still fight to the death.
“I see...”Jiang Fei nodded. He knew that Conan was right. When people were trying to survive, they would do anything.
“I will give you some food every day. Although I can not guarantee that everyone will be full, I can guarantee that everyone will not starve to death. If that’s the case, can you guarantee that no more people will die?”Jiang Fei asked.
“Master, if that’s the case, then if there are no accidents, I can guarantee that no one will die!”As an “Old resident”of the underground prison, Conan knew very well what food meant. As long as there was sufficient food.., then, no one would take the risk to fight with others.
