Abyss Summoner-Chapter 309 - 304: Methodical Progress

The days quickly passed.

[Gray Wolf] obeyed, and the slaves soon began their work. In name, Gray Wolf was their leader, but in reality, he was doing work akin to a foreman.

Roads.

Houses.

Fortresses.

The natives were involved in all these constructions. Periodically, Chen Feng would conduct audits, and if satisfied with the work, he would reward a few well-performing natives.

[Gray Wolf] was a native, and inevitably would make some mistakes, so in such cases, Chen Feng had to send a supervisor for daily oversight.

This time, all the professionals were engaged in the work. After some selection, the Inferior Demon, who often hid in her room, was given this task.

Natives are difficult to tame. Perhaps the wild blood within them makes it hard for some to recognize reality even now.

On the third day of work, seven natives complained to Gray Wolf because there was no meat in their meal (natives lived in the jungle, where food primarily consisted of meat).

The life of slavery had long since planted resentment in the natives’ hearts, and the complaints of a few resonated with the majority, causing hundreds to protest simultaneously, leaving Gray Wolf somewhat troubled.

However, the riot did not continue.

Inferior Demon, dispatched to guard them, stepped in. She didn’t look very old, always liked to curl up and lie in the sun. The little girl used the simplest method to make them shut their mouths.

Death.

In just a few minutes, more than thirty-six people were smashed to death, foreshadowing a deadly zone five meters around the little girl.

Most of the natives were merely responding to the call, participating in this protest. But in Inferior Demon’s eyes, this was a grave disrespect to the master.

"Help me keep an eye on these people. If necessary, you can kill them."

Inferior Demon kept the master’s instructions in mind.

In Inferior Demon’s eyes, the natives before her were just a group of larger ants, and she felt no burden in smashing them.

"Move recklessly...die..."

The little girl coldly gazed at the frightened crowd, and her barely articulate mouth spat out those three words, which landed like a boulder on the crowd, rendering them immobile.

The death was too gruesome.

Like a stone pillar, her fist touched the natives’ bodies, causing the flesh to explode completely, and the mist of blood wafted through the air, drenching the others and their food.

"Ugh!"

The few leaders who first shouted instantly vomited on the ground then, trembling like small dogs standing in a thunderstorm, their minds blank.

That same day, the incident reached Chen Feng’s ears. Without any blame, after directly executing the leaders and halving the natives’ food as a punishment, the matter quietly ended.

Afternoon.

Inferior Demon rested in the sunlight, quietly falling asleep.

It was the tenth day of the little girl’s work; maybe she dreamed of something beautiful, her long eyelashes began to tremble, and her throat let out some "giggling..." laughter.

Under the sunlight, it all appeared warm as a painting.

But in the eyes of the nearby natives, it transformed into another image, their pupils deeply entrenched with fear.

Perhaps...

She wasn’t a good supervisor.

But she was a good kid.

.........

Church buildings were under construction.

Not just one, but two.

These two churches were being built respectively for Li Siyu and Miss Fortune.

However, compared to Li Siyu’s church near the city center, entirely white with an angel statue on top, Miss Fortune’s church appeared somewhat gloomy.

Chen Feng had promised her a place for preaching and even let her choose the location herself.

Perhaps used to living in remote corners, Miss Fortune selected a spot near the corner of the city walls, where previously a shopping mall stood. After the apocalypse struck, the mall burned down, taking hundreds of lives. Due to the high death toll, there were rumors of crying sounds near the area at night, so it was converted into a warehouse, storing useless items.

Yet, for Miss Fortune, none of this mattered because the space was spacious enough, and she specifically wanted that place to establish her base.

Professionals, natives, and goblins were mobilized together.

Due to the framework, it only took a week to completely build Miss Fortune’s church.

However, compared to Li Siyu’s radiant and sacred church, Miss Fortune’s church seemed dark. Due to its geographical position, it never saw the sunlight during the day, and walking to the door had an eerie and terrifying feeling, let alone residing there at night.

Compared to a missionary church.

It looked more like an abnormal human research center.

Miss Fortune perhaps could never escape the darkness of her heart throughout her life. That was why she trapped herself in such a corner.

Recruiting Believers was difficult.

Originally full of confidence, Miss Fortune came here with the conviction of spreading her ideas, but the result was disappointing.

If one could live peacefully, who would want to wander aimlessly?

Among the survivors of the Economic Development Zone, this statement seemed particularly significant.

The apocalypse was filled with struggles, with death and danger everywhere, but here, everything changed, though the range of activities wasn’t vast, yet everyone rekindled hope for the future.

No longer worrying about being attacked by monsters at night, they thought about what work would get them a piece of worm meat or a place to live tomorrow.

Even survivors who lost their love or family started seeking new partners, with two cold hearts gathering for warmth, no longer burdened by houses and cars, just cherishing how to live better in the new era. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Miss Fortune was rebuffed.

Over ten days, despite her active recruitment, responses were very few, not even five people.

To this, Chen Feng remained observant.

In the face of the larger trend in the Economic Development Zone, Miss Fortune’s approach was outdated. He couldn’t deny some people might never escape the shadows due to various reasons. But the majority, facing hope, were already yearning and cherishing life.

Chen Feng understood from the beginning.

So, this was why he could agree so easily with Miss Fortune, tethering such a strong individual to his camp with just a rundown church and some useless permissions. The reality proved this was not a loss-making deal.
