Chapter 675 Survivors
Rainjaken and Digahalu followed Su Bai's gaze and were also stunned when they saw this scene.
Daniduo hurriedly went up, picked up the child, and scolded him with a red face.
"Who asked you to come in?"
The dirty child had his hands behind his back, a little at a loss.
At this time, the middle-aged woman ran over in a panic, picked up the child, and said apologetically.
"I'm sorry"
Su Bai looked at the food on the table and felt that it was not fragrant. He had been struggling to survive at the bottom since he was a child. Of course, he knew what was going on. The survival of the rebels and these people struggling at the bottom was a problem. In fact, every country has this problem, but I didn't expect that it seemed to be more serious in the Astor Empire.
"It's okay, he must be hungry, let him eat more."
Su Bai directly picked up the whole plate of stew on the table and handed it to the child.
The child shook his head in fear.
The middle-aged woman said in fear: "No, sir."
"Okay, take it."
Digahalu took the plate and put it in the child's arms, letting him hold it.
"Boss, you can't do that."
Daniduo was also a little anxious.
"I know what's going on at home. After this meal, we'll eat whatever you eat. It's better than what we eat in prison."
Digahalu said.
Dannido couldn't help but lower his head.
Digahalu reached out and patted Danido on the shoulder, saying hoarsely.
"No need to say anything more. We are brothers in life."
Dannido wiped his wet eyes.
"Yes, boss."
Ryanjaken said with a smile: "Okay, it's not a big deal. We are full. Eat small meals frequently. We just got out of prison. Eating too much at once is not good for the stomach."
"That's right."
Su Bai also echoed.
"Brother Su Bai, are you interested in going out together?"
Ryanjaken invited Su Bai.
"Is it okay?"
Su Bai was also a little surprised. In fact, he was very careful to open the window in the morning. After all, his appearance was very special, and it would be bad if he was discovered.
"Don't worry, didn't you hear what Digahalu said before? It's relatively safe here. And we are all family members living in this area now, and everyone is trustworthy."
Rainjaken replied.
"Yes, everyone in this area has been through it, I guarantee it."
Danni nodded heavily.
Su Bai didn't say anything more, and followed Rainjaken away.
A few minutes later, Su Bai and Rainjaken walked on a messy and crowded path, surrounded by garbage and stinking ditch water, and a special smell filled the air.
From time to time, some hunched figures can be seen, either curled up in a corner or lying on the ground.
In addition, Su Bai keenly noticed that something was wrong. The refugees living here seemed to have some defects in their bodies. Although most of them were not reflected in the limbs, many of them were reflected in the skin, ears, etc.
"Why are there so many deformed people here?"
Su Bai couldn't help but say.
"There are always victims on the road of evolution. Even safe and harmless drugs will have negative effects due to different physical conditions of people. Not to mention the imperfectly developed genetic drugs. To put it bluntly, those who live here are the lowest level of victims and abandoned."
Rainjaken shook his head and explained.
"The Astor Empire completely left it alone?"
Su Bai asked with some emotion.
"It can't be said that it doesn't care at all, but the measures they take are beyond your imagination."
"What measures?"
"This place is called the Abandoned Land, but it also has another name, that is, the Abandoned Mine. To put it bluntly, the entire area under our feet is a mining area. Here is the largest and most difficult abandoned mining area on the planet of God. This mining area produces very special high-value radioactive minerals. Conventional operating machines cannot operate at all, but mines always need people to dig. So the people who are entrenched here are actually disguised miners. If they want to survive, they have to go to the central area to mine. Because of the existence of this mining area, the people who are entrenched here can barely survive, And the Astor Empire not only does not need to pay any price to solve this problem, but can even get a large amount of income every year. "
"I see."
"It's not just that simple. Although the people here are a burden, no matter how useless they are, they are also a valuable resource. The upper class of the Astor Empire has used the people here as experimental subjects. Can you think of a cheaper experimental area than this? So even if the Astor Empire knows that this is a hotbed of rebels, they will not massacre here on a large scale. Otherwise, according to their usual style, it is not a big deal to massacre here. "
Hearing this, Su Bai was slightly silent, and said after a few minutes.
"Although the bottom of our Star Alliance is not much better, at least it will not be so nakedly exploited, and there is still a way to go. "
"There is no such thing as absolute fairness in this world, but at least it should be relatively fair so that the people at the bottom can survive. Okay, let's not talk about these heavy things. "
Ryan Garken said with a smile.
Su Bai nodded slightly, adjusted his mentality slightly, and changed the subject.
"Actually, I don't quite understand. Since you know that there is a suitable planet, why don't you cooperate and find it together? You can all unite to build the ark and leave the earth to enter the interstellar era. Is the situation now worse than before?"
"This has to do with human nature. Generally speaking, everyone is selfish. The reason why they cooperated was to survive. After the situation is not so bad, they naturally have their own calculations, plus suspicion, there is nothing strange about it."
Ryanjaken said.
"That's right, then Mr. Ryanjaken, have you ever thought about finding the planet yourself?"
Su Bai nodded.
Ryanjaken stopped and sighed when he heard this. He said to Su Bai, "What if I tell you that I tried it before, but failed?"
"Although it's a bit rash, I wonder if Mr. Ryanjaken can tell me the specific situation? In fact, I won't hide it from you. The biggest purpose of my trip is to find a suitable planet."
Su Bai didn't mean to hide it from Ryanjaken. Of course, it was useless to hide it. The other party could see it more or less.
"Actually, no matter who finds the suitable planet, it's a good thing in my eyes. At least humans can have a place to live. But ideals are good, but reality is cruel. In fact, even the survivors of that year couldn't tell where the suitable planet was. Why do I dare to say this? Because I am one of the survivors."
Rainjaken's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.
