From morning to noon before lunch, Gong Liang passionately shared the stories of the wasteland. From the first time, humans set foot on the New World to the landing of the Deep Sea troops.

Then, he talked about how humans began to take control of the entire wasteland, as well as some touching stories that happened while fighting against disasters.

Whether they were fabricated or had exaggerated elements in his stories, even Su Mo was intrigued by his brilliant story-telling capabilities and listened attentively, not feeling the passage of time at all.

“Sigh. The more I talk about it, the more regretful I feel about it.

“It’s a real shame! Humans’ development speed was rapid, and it only took three years for us to completely turn the situation around and oppress the foreign races. Then, over the next five years, we continued to consolidate our status and promote science and technology. We eventually created a logistics system that ultimately connected the economic development of humans, uniting billions of people’s efforts to fight against disasters together.

“Despite that, one could only imagine how far Almighty Su would have taken us by now if he did not mysteriously disappear from the wasteland back then. After eightyears, it would surely be a spectacular sight to see!”

“I agree. I’m afraid the foreign races would have been wiped out by now if Almighty Su was still active in the wasteland back then. It would be impossible for them to survive. Plus, we’d have enough means to deal with the disasters with him onboard!”

Wang Zhuyu said as she slowly approached them with a tray in her hand.

“Here you go! I snatched these as lunch for you guys!”

Two plates of green stir-fried lettuce, three plates of golden yellow scrambled eggs with some green chives, and two small plates of steamed eggs.

Although the dish was slightly simple for five people, the rice in the large pot on the side was more than enough.

However, Gong Liang, who acted as the storyteller just now, frowned suddenly when he saw the dishes.

“That’s all?”

The meal was acceptable under normal circumstances.

However, this was a compensation meal. The morning meal as a benchmark, this meal did not even consist of one meat dish and did not meet standards.

“Yeah. I happened to bump into some people from Infinite Prefecture. You know how they’re always targetting us.”

After speaking, Wang Zhuyu’s face showed a hint of anger.

Sitting on a stool, Gong Liang’s brows furrowed after hearing her explanation.

“Infinite Prefecture? Are those mad dogs eyeing us again?”

Wherever there were people, there would be disputes.

With Heaven Origin’s early stage advantages and development, they had never fallen out of the top 30 on the human territories’ ranking before. Compared with smaller territories, they had an absolute advantage.

However, everyone was on the same level among the top 30 territories, including the top 10.

Everyone wanted their territories to live the best, and all the lords wanted their territories to develop faster.

Naturally, conflicts were bound to happen between territories.

“Why? Is Infinite Prefecture better than Heaven’s Origin?”

Sensing the tense atmosphere, Wang Zhuyu did not know whether she should continue standing or put the plates down. Huang Xiaojuan, who was softer, had no choice but to speak up and clear the strange atmosphere.

“More than just better! They are the fourth-largest territory in the New World, with a population of nearly four million. They are one-fold stronger than our territory in all aspects.

Gong Liang sighed.

“Since the autumn harvest last year, the black-hearted businessmen of Infinite Prefecture wanted to maliciously lower the price of food to hoard large quantities of resources. However, our territory lord saw through the plan and sabotaged them.

“Ever since, these people turned into mad dogs and kept targeting us, trying to bite every one of us.

“These people would have surely come to our territory with weapons if it weren’t for the rules that humans were not allowed to attack each other under any circumstances.”

“Why aren’t the people from Dragon Flag intervening in the situation?” Huang Xiaojuan asked curiously.

“Intervene? How? They can’t possibly monitor each part of the wasteland all the time. Besides, even if our territory lord has some sort of relationship with the Dragon Flag Territory, it would be a loss to use connections for such things.”

As a person constantly traveling outside, Gong Liang clearly understood the territory’s situation.

It was evident that he had also been bullied by these people in the past.

Now that there was an accident on the train with the guards being soldiers from Heaven’s Origin, this group of people naturally used it as an excuse to make it difficult for them.

In order to keep things calm, the steward in charge of the train could only grit his teeth and endure their malicious acts.

Even if they treated those from Heaven’s Origin badly, they would have to give service to those scumbags so as to prevent them from complaining.

“Actually, I would be able to take three of those weaklings alone if it were not because the territory lord specifically forbids us not to cause trouble outside.

“I hate that our territory has no person with great strength to take the lead in formulating military plans and rules. We can only be oppressed by these disgusting territories that unite to oppress us.”

“Sigh, what a shame.”
