182: Voluntary waiver

“So, the main problem we need to solve is how to deal with the Dinosaur Zombies on the ground, following the method we used to block the Pterosaur Zombies.” Xia Liang pointed to the two Trains above his head and continued, “We can use the Trains of those independent Train Conductors to build a perimeter wall made of stacked Trains on the outside.

With this Train wall, we can keep the zombies out, and then we can adopt a strategy of ‘catching a turtle in a jar’—letting a portion of Dinosaur Zombies in, working together to kill them, and repeating this process.

This way, everyone can not only temporarily overcome the zombie horde crisis but also continue to acquire energy stones. What do you all think of this method?”

Everyone present pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Whether the method was feasible, their secure presence here was the best proof.

But the problem was getting others to willingly give up their Trains and their purpose, which would be very difficult.

At least none of the people present were willing.

No one was willing to use their own Train to build a wall, which meant this method couldn't be implemented.

A man dressed as a farmer shook his head and scoffed, “The method is good, but who among those independent Train Conductors would be willing to give up their Trains? Do you intend to force them? I don’t think that’s possible.

This isn't as simple as you conscripting people for war.”

Xia Liang had anticipated the man’s question.

He nodded and said, “Exactly! This is why I gathered you all here.

I need you all to make a promise to accommodate these Train Conductors who give up their Trains and provide them with appropriate treatment.

At the same time, you must also form an alliance and collectively pressure them.

If they refuse, we will all act together.

Only with both kindness and coercion will they hand over their Trains.”

As if worried someone might be too soft-hearted, Xia Liang added, “For our survival, please consider this carefully.”

After speaking, Xia Liang rested his chin on his hands, closed his eyes, and said no more, leaving the time for the spokespersons of the other factions.

Immediately, the people present began to discuss, their voices noisy, like a swarm of wasps passing by.

“What do you all think? Can we agree?” Luo Chen asked Qin Mengyue and Jiang Zhi, who were beside him.

“I'll listen to you!” Jiang Zhi replied simply.

As a farmer, he disliked these acts of oppressing the powerless, but to survive, he had no choice but to accept such a method, which left him conflicted.

“I think it’s acceptable!

A promise is just an empty check, meaningless, and can be said casually.

Our only consideration is the issue of increasing the Train’s population.”

Qin Mengyue nodded.

As a former boss, she was accustomed to these methods of exploiting the weak.

At this moment, she was only focused on maximizing profits.

When the noise in the venue subsided, Xia Liang raised his eyelids, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and asked in a deep voice, “How have you all considered it? Those who agree can raise their hands; those who disagree can leave.”

“I agree!”

“I agree too!”

Everyone present raised their hands; no one left.

Few who could become the leader of a major faction were fools.

They were all very clear about the consequences of disagreeing.

“Very good!” Xia Liang laughed heartily and said, “Since there are no objections, the plan will be launched immediately.

Now, I need everyone to send out their strongest subordinates to knock on the doors of the other independent Trains, forcing them to give up their Trains.

Each person only needs to send 10 people.

If anyone lacks weapons, they can purchase them at the Wanderer Commerce Guild behind me; their nuclear rifles are quite good.”

“Uncle Jiang, send your people out!” Luo Chen instructed Jiang Zhi.

Half of the weapons were currently with Jiang Zhi, so sending his people was more appropriate, and since they were all men, they would execute orders more thoroughly.

Jiang Zhi nodded and quickly made arrangements on his wearable device.

Before long, a group of people gathered in front of Luo Chen and the others, a door-knocking team assembled from various major factions.
