502: I do not agree
Speaking up to this point, the woman was clearly somewhat angry, but when facing Pan Han, she was still trying hard to restrain herself.
Pan Han could feel her body trembling; it seemed he had touched her sore spot.
However, Pan Han could not find a reason to refute what the woman had said.
God says that humans have seven deadly sins, and the most potent of these is pride.
Pride clouds a person's eyes, making them unable to see things clearly, and leads them to commit all other sins.
As fellow living beings, humans can decide their life and death, sometimes not even realizing they have caused other species to go extinct.
If it is true that whoever is the strongest can do whatever they want, then the woman before him could indeed determine the future of humanity.
She could make you die if she wanted, or make you live if she chose.
"Have you figured it out?" Seeing Pan Han remained silent, the woman's tone softened slightly.
"I understand. However, since you are a living being, you should know the value of life. The world is colorful precisely because life has various ways of existing. What is the point of you destroying that by force?"
Pan Han spread his hands. The woman's attitude just now reminded him of Ellie; they were so alike!
"Lord Pan, then why are you obsessed with unifying the country and the world?"
"If you say that everyone has their own way of surviving, why is living like this not acceptable now?"
"At the end of the day, humans just aren't strong enough; they can't beat me, just like fish can't beat humans. Do fish naturally like to be eaten by humans? Since humans can't beat me and have been turned into what they are now, what is wrong with that?"
The woman said these words in one breath, then patted Pan Han on the shoulder.
"This..."
Pan Han was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to refute her.
Why did he want to unify the world? It was so everyone could have food to eat!
But ultimately, it was because he had his space and his military strength, and others couldn't defeat him.
That was the only reason he had the opportunity to unify the world.
As for his wish to let everyone be well-fed, it seemed there was no essential difference from the woman's wish to stop everyone from killing each other.
Is there any essential difference between everyone being full and everyone not eating?
It seemed there really wasn't.
"But what do you want with my hometown, Blue Star? Do you want it to become like this too?"
Since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it and simply changed the subject.
"I have to reproduce, after all." The woman laughed dumbly, emitting a naive chuckle.
At this moment, she was surprisingly gentle, looking exactly like a pregnant woman.
"You call this reproduction? Once you've ruined this planet, you're going to go ruin another one?"
"Ruining is just your definition; it means nothing to me. If you viewed me as a living being, you wouldn't ask such a stupid question. There are many ways to reproduce. Do not let pride cloud your eyes."
"Wait a second. My world is just fine. You don't need to worry about it."
Pan Han hurriedly waved his hands; he certainly didn't want to watch the people he knew turn into walking corpses.
"Is it really that good? It seems no different from here." The woman waved her hands, and a screen appeared out of thin air in front of them, playing various scenes of war.
Before coming to the apocalypse, Pan Han had only ever secretly watched a beheading video in an internet cafe in his entire life.
He had been so scared at the time that he ran away clutching his head and couldn't even eat dinner.
For several days after that, he had nightmares every day.
After coming to the apocalypse, he had gradually adapted after experiencing battles of all sizes.
Now, he could calmly examine the slaughter and strife between humans.
The images overlapped, one after another, all of the most disgusting things between humans.
A bomb dropped, and both adults and children were blown into the sky.
Rows of prisoners were shot one by one.
Women were surrounded and assaulted by soldiers, finally having steel bars inserted into their bodies, piercing through their throats.
Children were placed on fires to be roasted, and beastly soldiers tore off their thighs and took a bite.
In the past, Pan Han would have definitely vomited, but now he could watch it all calmly.
"How about it? Is there any difference?"
After the two of them watched in silence for a few minutes, the woman said calmly.
"It seems there is no difference." Pan Han had to admit.
The slap in the face came a bit too fast; he needed to adapt.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Yes, I do not agree!"
Pan Han said with a firm tone; no matter how flowery the woman's words were, he would absolutely not let her invade Blue Star.
"I am only informing you; I am not asking for your consent."
Who knew, the woman smirked and said indifferently.
"Then let's keep fighting." Pan Han took a drag of his cigarette and flicked the butt away.
Whenever he made this gesture, it meant the conversation was over, and from then on, only fists could do the talking.
"Don't you want to hear the terms?" The woman flipped her hand, turning the butterfly knife into a cigarette, and handed it to Pan Han again.
Holy shit!
He was being completely manipulated!
This woman's aura was too powerful!
Countless thoughts flashed through Pan Han's mind, but he had to take the cigarette and nodded, saying, "What are the terms?"
"I will help you unify this world. I will make all your people high-level evolvers, Godzilla will also belong to you, and I will help you hatch the three dragon eggs. I will also give you a large piece of land, and as for the other six hundred million people, you can support them however you wish."
"That sounds not bad." Pan Han nodded; this offer was unexpectedly good.
"As for Blue Star, I will give you a quota of one million; you can choose the people yourself. The rest will all be left to me." The woman held up one finger.
"By 'left to me,' you mean turning them all into zombies, right?" Pan Han said.
"That is my freedom. Maybe they'll all turn into little pigs." Speaking up to this point, a subtle light flashed in the woman's eyes, as if she had already seen the future of Blue Star.
"Your terms are equivalent to no deal." Pan Han shook his head and said.
"What, is one million people not enough for you to choose from? You don't know that many people, do you?"
Pan Han nodded. From the time he was small until now, the number of people whose names he could call might not even reach ten thousand.
If he really had to pick one million, he could even sell 990,000 of those spots.
"One million is a lot, but I still cannot agree."
"It seems the offer isn't high enough. Then what about ten million??"
"That is not the issue. I simply do not agree."
"What conditions would it take for you to agree?" The woman said, still calm.
She displayed enough patience toward Pan Han, negotiating from beginning to end.
It was as if these two had known each other for a long time; if they had transformed into men, they might have already been drinking together.
"Give me all your high technology. I will go and reform Blue Star. Maybe it will get better. There is no need for everything to be done according to your way of thinking."
"Will there be peace just because they are full? Are you still a three-year-old child?"
The woman looked puzzled; it was impossible for Pan Han not to understand this logic.
"You know, with my current abilities, I should be able to flatten Blue Star, right?" Pan Han said.
"Mm, no problem."
"You should also know that I am preparing to enjoy my twilight years in the Myanmar Northern Region, right?"
"I know."
"But do you know why I could flatten it, yet I chose to retire?"
"I do not."
The two locked eyes, and Pan Han's gaze was burning.
