Chapter 51 Forced
The color gradually turned black, and lights were turned on in many parts of the camp.
Apart from the searchlights, ordinary lights can only provide barely any illumination, since the power reserves are insufficient and they have to be used sparingly.
As Lin Yao and Alice gazed at Raccoon City, thick smoke billowing and faint roars and explosions echoing from time to time.
Dozens of figures emerged from the corner, flanking them from both sides and surrounding them.
"Lin Dong, they seem to know you."
Alice glanced at the reincarnator who was staring intently at Lin Yao, her eyes flickering slightly, a hint of doubt in her mind.
Lin Yao was somewhat surprised when he saw these people.
I didn't expect these reincarnators to unite so quickly.
Apart from the four guys who were in the same second mission world as him, and the girl named Xiaoyuan, everyone else had come here.
This also includes newcomers who have the status of prospective members of the Umbrella Guard.
"Brother Lin Dong, we meet again."
The boy named Zhanlang looked at Lin Yao, then glanced at Alice beside him, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
This guy named Lin Dong, no wonder he dares to act alone. I originally thought he was a fool, but I didn't expect him to have his own strength.
Through deeper intelligence and excellent communication skills, they managed to hook up with the indigenous people who were clearly not just ordinary people so quickly.
"What's the matter with you?"
Lin Yao was quite impressed with their ability to act; they noticed his unusual behavior and quickly made contact, thus blocking his and Alice's plans.
"I must have something to ask you, but I didn't expect you to bring a guy along for a stroll."
"It doesn't matter. I think this indigenous woman in front of me is just an ordinary woman, not as mysterious as I imagined."
During this cycle of missions, the strongest and most ferocious man among the new recruits, who was subtly taking the lead, spoke up.
This person is named Xiang Dongyan.
With his strong physique and the double buff from being a reincarnator, he was far ahead of the other newcomers, so he spoke much louder.
“Brother Dongyan, there are no simple people in the mission world. Please don’t bring your real-world habits here and scare our Brother Lin Dong. If we have the chance to become friends, I don’t want to resort to knives and guns.”
Zhan Lang offered a perfunctory attempt to salvage the situation, seemingly to save face for Lin Yao.
But that strange look in his eyes and that confident smile made it seem as if he had Lin Yao completely under his control, and could manipulate him at will.
Having previously refused his own team invitation, the tables have turned. Now, surrounded by the team he himself formed, he can forget about escaping unscathed without suffering heavy losses.
"Yes, what Brother Wolf said is true. We came here with good intentions to make friends, but I have a short temper and I need to find a way to vent if I'm not careful."
Xiang Dongyan, who had a fierce look on his face, agreed with Zhan Lang's words and looked like he was following Zhan Lang's lead.
However, the fierce glint that flashed deep in his eyes, unnoticed by anyone else, revealed that he did not truly mean what he said.
However, the young warrior was merely a new reincarnator who had experienced two worlds, so how could he notice the subtle emotions that flashed in Xiang Dongyan's eyes?
Even if he knew, he wouldn't care much. In the cycle of reincarnation, strength is paramount, and no amount of thought can compare to that punch.
So, the young wolf warrior smiled with satisfaction at this superficial flattery, nodded, and spoke softly to the person who spoke.
"I believe Brother Lin Dong is a smart man and wouldn't make an irrational choice that would prevent us from even being friends."
"Brother Lin Dong, as the saying goes, sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. I believe you have inadvertently gathered information about this world."
We'll sign a contract together, and then you can share it. With that bond, we'll be brothers who can take care of each other.
The reason they were able to unite was because Lin Yao was able to easily access the relationships of the mid-level personnel of the Umbrella Corporation at the Raccoon City temporary base.
With these protective umbrellas and guards around, they felt this mission was a piece of cake.
Therefore, they are very curious about the secrets behind Lin Yao's ability to achieve this and want to take them away.
Driven by self-interest, these guys banded together, wanting to gain more benefits in the early stages of the mission.
"I think the Wolf Warriors are right. We should unite to survive in the face of those terrifying monsters."
“That’s right. We are all living, breathing human beings with the right to live. Since you have already received the corresponding benefits, it won’t do you any harm to help us out.”
"Indeed, you help me and I help you, and together we can build a healthy environment for reincarnation."
"Spoiling everything in the cycle of reincarnation won't last long; sharing is the only way. I hope you can make a rational choice and not let our relationship descend into chaos."
After the young warrior made his veiled accusations, the other reincarnators also spoke up, directly wielding the weapon of moral blackmail.
Moreover, they didn't feel like they were morally blackmailing anyone; they all acted with righteous indignation, as if they were fighting for the interests of the weak.
People have a herd mentality, and driven by self-interest, they have no doubts about sacrificing Lin Yao's interests to satisfy their own ideas.
Even if some people feel it's inappropriate, the thought of it helping them survive in the cycle of reincarnation is irresponsible.
They might even receive more rewards, gain greater strength, and change their own destiny. So they shut up.
As for those egoists, seeing that Lin Yao seemed to be weakly accepting their words without any intention of refuting them, they spoke even more enthusiastically, their expressions ferocious, and the threat in their words growing stronger.
"Don't think that the black captain can protect you. Do you think you can leave here safely if you don't agree?"
"Since we've taken action, it means we've considered all sorts of contingencies and made ample preparations, so there's no way there could be any oversights."
"We hope you will be a wise and sensible person."
"In these chaotic times, human life is as cheap as grass. Countless people die silently, and some even turn into those ugly zombies. I hope you can listen to me."
"..."
They wouldn't normally do something like sacrificing others' interests to satisfy themselves, given the constraints they face.
But the cycle of reincarnation is different; moral blackmail is just the simplest step.
Of course, if Lin Yao disagrees, killing him would be far too harmful.
However, sometimes you don't necessarily need to physically kill someone. With so many zombies, you can indirectly use their power to achieve your goal.
Since the mission in the non-reincarnation space emphasizes that no one can kill each other, and there are corresponding punishments, no one is willing to try it themselves.
However, it is very easy to ruin a person.
