The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.

Watching those people silently cleaning up the battlefield, Ye Xiao felt a chill run down his spine.

Sometimes ignorance can be truly terrifying.

But strangely, Ye Xiao could sense that Zhu Hongchang was not as foolish and crazy as those people; he clearly still retained a clear mind.

Ye Xiao crossed his arms, looked at Zhu Hongchang, and spoke with an unfriendly gaze:

"Tell me, how do you want to die?"

Surprisingly, Zhu Hongchang was not frightened by Ye Xiao's words. On the contrary, he calmly and composedly spoke:

"Is the messenger of the gods dead?"

Ye Xiao snorted lightly, "Looks like you know that killing me won't be so easy."

Zhu Hongchang nodded. "I see. If you want to kill me, I have nothing to say. But could you wait until you've safely delivered them to the base before killing me?"

"At least let me confirm that they have safely arrived at the base!"

Zhu Hongchang's expression was calm, as if they were talking about something other than his life or death, and what they planned to eat that night.

His attitude puzzled Lan Ling and Chen Ge, and even Ye Xiao couldn't quite understand it.

"Why? You don't seem like the type to be foolishly devoted to a cult. Why are you aiding and abetting evil?"

Zhu Hongchang looked at Ye Xiao and let out a long breath. He then looked at the men and women, young and old, gathered in the corner.

"There are only about twenty people left here. Our base used to have more than a hundred people."

“Our village has a good environment, with natural barriers, fields, and livestock. After the apocalypse, everyone lived a difficult but peaceful life for quite a long time.”

"But the accident happened too suddenly. During the rainy season before last, we were attacked by a monster, and more than half of our people died."

"Children have lost their parents, the elderly have lost their children, their brothers, their lovers, and their relatives..."

He took a deep breath, his tone filled with an indescribable melancholy.

"Since the end times, everyone has been struggling to survive, and the little hope that has been preserved has been easily shattered."

"Have you ever experienced that kind of despair? Everyone was on the verge of collapse!"

"Just then, the messenger of the gods arrived. He controlled a huge monster that obeyed him. The monster said he was the messenger of the gods and could suppress demons."

At this point, Zhu Hongchang scoffed, "How could I, someone who has received an education, possibly believe such nonsense?"

"However, ever since that guy brought the monster to the village, we haven't been attacked again, and we've even gotten through the rainy season safely."

"It seems that everyone has suddenly found hope and something to rely on, and they have begun to believe in that divine messenger. It's always good to have something to rely on, as long as everyone can survive."

At this point, Zhu Hongchang let out a long sigh of relief.

“The divine messenger needs to have his blood replaced every so often, and some of the villagers who survived are willing to come out of the village for the sake of their own relatives.”

"I didn't stop it, because at least more people survived, and everyone did it voluntarily. What could I do?"

"Isn't it better than everyone being in despair and unable to survive? Isn't it better than having no one to protect you and being eaten by monsters?"

"Moreover, the divine messenger was able to suppress the abnormalities in everyone's bodies, and everyone believed that he could protect them in the end times."

Chen Ge suddenly let out a heavy sigh, and for a moment he actually began to understand these people.

He asked curiously, "Then why are you relocating to the base this time?"

Zhu Hongchang sighed, "Our village suffered great losses this rainy season. There were landslides and we were also attacked by monsters."

"Although the divine messenger controlled the monster to kill the attacking monster, he had reached his limit and said that he needed blood from an asymptomatic person to replace his blood."

"Where are asymptomatic carriers so easy to find? Later, he gave us a clue, saying that there were many asymptomatic carriers at the Gaotang base, and told everyone that it was very safe there, so that everyone would willingly migrate there and seek offerings for him."

Ah!

Ye Xiao suddenly sneered; he had already guessed it.

He glanced at Zhu Hongchang and felt that these people were pitiful and pathetic, sacrificing a small number of people to allow more people to survive.

He is not them, so he cannot judge their actions.

He couldn't laugh at these people's ignorance, after all, he hadn't experienced their despair. Who knew what choices he would make if he were in their shoes?

Perhaps it is precisely because of despair and having nowhere else to go that one chooses to grasp at the only straw that can save them.

However, Ye Xiao still disagreed in his heart; it was better to rely on oneself than to place one's hopes on others.

However, considering that he had a live streaming system, firepower, and weapons, while these elderly people, children, and ordinary villagers had nothing, Ye Xiao felt that his idea was a bit too naive.

But the damn thing is, these people just happened to target him, so sorry about that.

However, Ye Xiao was somewhat frustrated at the moment. These people now regarded him as a new divine messenger, and the system had even given him an achievement, which was a bit outrageous.

Ye Xiao looked at the live streaming system panel that had popped up in front of him with a sense of frustration.

[Congratulations on successfully defeating the cult branch "Divine Messenger" and gaining followers, earning you the achievement title "Guide".]

[Rewards for achieving "Guide": 4 cubic meters of warehouse space, 1 brain extractor]

The "Redeemer" achievement is now available, currently at 10% progress...

Ye Xiao frowned, almost gasping for breath. His eyes twitched involuntarily, and he nearly cursed out loud.

No, is this system even working? Isn't it just a live streamer system?

What the hell is this "Redeemer"? Why don't you let me be the savior?

He's just a small-time streamer, why is he treating me like a superhero?

This cult is an organization, and it's also involved with a human laboratory behind the scenes. Based on Ye Xiao's deduction, it might even be closely related to the cause of this apocalypse.

Wait, is there something wrong with this system? Can you give me some reliable tasks?

Wait, this is an achievement task, which means it's not mandatory to complete. Let's see what the reward is first. If the reward is attractive enough, he might even take the risk.

If it's just about money, then forget it. These kinds of things can't be solved with money alone!

Ye Xiao thought to himself, then looked at the gray text after the achievement, which indicated the reward for the "Redeemer" achievement.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xiao's eyes widened involuntarily, and he gasped sharply!
