Transmigrated into Another Apocalyptic World (BL) - Chapter 191

Chapter 191: Chapter 190: Talking to Astrid and the others

If Mr. Acacia’s plant energy weren’t so concentrated, it wouldn’t be so obvious.

As time passes, the plant energy that Mr. Acacia emits will be diluted and combined with other plant energy in their environment.

Mr. Acacia was emitting a lot of plant energy; that’s why it was very noticeable.

“Oh, I see,” Nathan said.

Treyton and Nathan didn’t ask any more questions about Mr. Acacia and began talking about other things while Luciel also began playing games.

Treyton and the others only stopped what they were doing and started paying attention outside when they were near the bottom of the mountain.

According to the villagers, the nearby settlement that won’t let them go was just below the mountain on the other side.

Treyton ordered all the cars to stop at the curve before the straight road going downhill.

He ordered the others to go and observe the settlement below.

When Wes and the others came back, they reported that there were actually a lot of people hidden near the entrance of the settlement.

1 of the ten people from the village, who was one of the injured people who had the lightest injury, said that the settlement wasn’t that guarded, so they managed to escape.

However, according to Wes, there were actually people hiding nearby.

“Oh, it looks like they actually have good brains,” Luciel commented.

“They managed to trick people to their settlement, so it’s inevitable that someone was good at luring people in,” Treyton said.

“What are you guys talking about?” Nathan asked.

“They just released some people as bait and were waiting for people who wanted to rescue the others.

It’s a good way to add people if they are really making other people their slaves,” Treyton explained.

As Treyton said, the settlement probably released the villagers knowing that they would be back with more people to rescue the remaining villagers inside.

They probably already knew that the villagers didn’t have a lot of strong people with them, so they released a few people so that they could get more people who could be their slaves as soon as other villagers came to rescue their companions.

They really have good calculations because a lot of villagers wanted to come and rescue their companions if Treyton hadn’t said that they would handle it.

“Then, they’re really an unpleasant group,” Nathan said with distaste.

In the end, Treyton left him and the kids and took all the others to go and deal with the people in the settlement.

Treyton and the others had no qualms in taking Astrid and the others when they were dealing with zombies, but when they were dealing with people, they wouldn’t take them.

It was obvious that they still don’t want Astrid and other kids to deal with human beings.

Well, with the abilities and numbers of people they have, kids like Astrid and others weren’t really needed to come forward in such situations.

As for Luciel, of course he was left behind because he doesn’t want to do anything at all.

Luciel brought out his tablet to continue watching movies and also brought out growing strawberries to eat.

“What are you guys fidgeting about? There’s a lot of food in the fridge. Just eat something if you like,” Luciel said while looking at the five people who were sitting on the sofa in front of him.

When Treyton and the others left, Astrid and the others transferred to the RV where he was for the time being.

Astrid, Violet, Bella, Austin, and Owen were indeed sitting in front of them, but it was obvious that their minds were occupied with something else.

“Austin, get the chocolate syrup in the fridge,” Luciel said to Austin, who was closest to the fridge.

Austin obediently went to get the chocolate syrup for him but didn’t get anything for themselves.

“Big brother, have you ever killed a person?” Astrid asked while he was picking strawberries for himself.

“Of course, I have. Why?” Luciel nonchalantly said.

He had killed a lot of people in the past that he couldn’t even bother counting how many people he had killed so far.

After hearing his answer, Astrid obviously paused but still asked, “What is it like?”

Luciel stopped picking strawberries and looked at the kids properly.

“Are you asking that because you don’t want to be left behind like today?”

Astrid and the others obviously knew that they were left behind because Treyton and the others would probably end up killing some people in the settlement.

They would probably kill more if the culprits did something more terrible.

Astrid and others were obviously left behind because Treyton and the others don’t want them to be involved in killing people.

“Yes,” Astrid replied honestly.

Luciel also looked at the others, and all of them nodded.

“You guys are still young. Even though the world became more terrible than before, it doesn’t mean that you guys have to kill people.

It might indeed be unavoidable at times like this, but as long as you can avoid it, then it’s better not to kill anyone at all.

Killing people would have a different effect on people.

Some will be depressed and won’t recover from their first kill as it continues to haunt them.

Some will recover, but their recovery time would also be different.

Some will also be consumed and go crazy.

Even if you kill someone in order to protect yourselves or for other people, or even if you killed bad people, no matter what your reason is, as long as you killed someone, it would certainly have an effect on you.

Even if you guys say that you are strong enough to withstand the effect of killing a person, you guys won’t really know until you have done it.

And once you kill someone, if you didn’t go crazy from the get-go or suffer too much trauma, it would certainly be easier to kill others in the future, which is both good and bad depending on the situation.”
