Chapter 308: The Price of Survival

Chapter 308: The Price of Survival

At this moment, she suddenly heard someone calling her name from the cage beside her.

“Nicole... Her Highness Nicole?”

Nicole suddenly turned her head and looked at one of the cages. Her eyes instantly widened.

In the darkness of the cage, a few young people timidly took a few steps forward. Their faces were all dirty, their hair was disheveled, and their bodies were full of wounds.

“Xing Quan! Xing Shan!” Nicole grabbed the cage and looked at them in disbelief. Her lips trembled as she said, “Is it really you? You... I thought you were dead!”

Two of the young people walked up and looked at the girl in front of them. They immediately cried out at the top of their lungs.

Su Han turned his head to look at them and waved his hand. The cage was instantly broken.

The few young men in the cage immediately crawled out and cried around Nicole.

Nicole’s eyes were also moist. She turned her head and said to Su Han, “Lord Su Han, they... They are my companions who grew up with me. A few months ago, they suddenly disappeared. I always thought that they were dead!”

Su Han nodded and did not say anything.

The few young men looked at Su Han in front of them with some fear. When he killed the three black-robed men, they had all seen that he possessed such terrifying power at such a young age, making it difficult for them to approach him.

Nicole quickly went forward and came in front of Su Han. She looked at them and said solemnly, “You have been away for too long. You don’t know what has happened to our ten thousand races. He is a person from our homeland, from the Second Continent, and also the king of the human race on the Second Continent! My ancestor, Darcy, has already given the Ring of Hope to Lord Su Han. He is now the new king of our Second Human race!”

Everyone had shocked expressions on their faces.

It was not just the young people. In the cages around them, one by one, people stood up, grabbed the railings, and looked at Su Han standing there in shock.

The new king of the Second Human race!

So young!

A person from their homeland!

The amount of information contained in this series of messages was so huge that many people didn’t have time to react.

Su Han looked at the rows of cages and the Second Human race in them, and his gaze became increasingly gloomy and terrifying.

He had never imagined that in this desolate outer region, there would actually be such a base that would destroy humanity and conduct research that didn’t treat humans as humans.

This kind of behavior was not much better than what the First Human race did to the Second Human race.

He suddenly waved his hand, and all the cages instantly exploded.

Su Han expressionlessly turned his head and walked to the other side, saying, “We’ll talk about it after we leave. Since I’ve found you here, I’ll take responsibility for you. Let’s go. After I destroy this base, I’ll bring you back!”

Everyone looked at the back of the young man in shock. They were overwhelmed by the words he said.

He said that he would destroy this base! Bring them back to their hometown!

Many people had been locked up here for god knows how long. They suffered inhuman abuse every day and had long lost all hope.

“Is he really... Our new king?” Everyone turned their heads and looked at Nicole in shock.

Nicole stared at his back firmly and said, “He is the link between us and our homeland. He is the only king of our Second Human race! Other than him, no one else is qualified to take on the heavy responsibility of being the king!”

...

In another passage, Su Han looked at the cages on both sides expressionlessly.

In the cages, one by one, people with disheveled hair looked at him with hope, eager to be saved.

However, the people imprisoned here were all First Humans. They were people Nuss had kidnapped from the First Humans’ territory.

Nicole had brought all the Second Humans here. The Second Humans looked at the cages on both sides with complicated expressions.

“They are not our people, but they have also been persecuted. How should we deal with them?” one person asked with a complicated expression.

Another person gritted his teeth and said, “The First Human race is nothing good. Even if we don’t kill them, we definitely can’t save them. The hatred between us and them is irreconcilable!”

The other woman frowned slightly and said, “They have also been betrayed. If we save them, perhaps... They won’t be like the other First Human races and harbor prejudice against us.”

Everyone turned their heads and looked at the expressionless Su Han, waiting for his decision.

The people here had already regarded him as their backbone.

Su Han expressionlessly looked at the first humans who had been imprisoned and said, “I won’t treat you like the other First Humans. I can give you a choice. Either you will be marked by my soul and be loyal to me forever, or you can stay here and continue your fate.”

He slowly walked forward and said, “Now, make your choice. Accept it or reject it. It’s all up to your own will.”

Immediately, all the First Humans had complicated expressions on their faces.

Being branded with a soul was equivalent to becoming this person’s slave. However, if they stayed here, who knew what kind of fate awaited them!

“I! I am willing!” A First Human said with a trembling voice. “I don’t want to endure this torture anymore. As long as you can save me, I am willing to give up my loyalty!”

Instantly, shouts rang out from the surroundings. They were like livestock in a pen, begging for a chance to live.

“You weak people!” a series of angry curses suddenly came from the cage.

“The supreme First Human race will not submit to anyone! You have violated the dignity of the First Human race!”

The opponents grabbed those who submitted and continued to struggle.

Su Han expressionlessly reached out his hand. One of the opponents was suddenly nailed to the ground, and everyone immediately fell silent.

“This is their choice. You have no right to interfere,” Su Han said indifferently.

He opened the cage, and one by one, the First Humans who had chosen to submit crawled out.

The remaining one-third of them gritted their teeth and sat in the cage, unwilling to become slaves.

Su Han said expressionlessly, “Very good. I admire you people who are unwilling to become slaves. If you were the Second Humans, you might have become my friends. But now, you can stay here and accept your fate. This is your choice.”

He turned his head again and looked at those who accepted to be slaves, he said indifferently, “To be honest, I hate you people who are willing to be other people’s lackeys but are not willing to die. But I keep my promise. You will become my slaves, but at the same time, you will also accept my protection.”

He turned his head and slowly walked towards the third level.
