Chapter: 5086
Before that, they didn't have any seniors who had done something similar. Whether it was resisting or fleeing, each person's maximum lifespan after escaping was only seven days.
So, this kind of completely hopeless situation had gone on for so long that no one wanted to do anything about it.
But if such a situation were to occur as Mr. Ye said, where the toxic substances inside their bodies are suddenly cleared up, they would also stand up like those dead men and fight back to the very end.
After seeing the attitude of some people, Ye Cheng nodded in satisfaction and asked: "Does the Marshal need to take medication regularly?"
The commander of the cavalry guard spoke up first, saying, "I've never heard of that." "The Marshal is a mysterious person with low-key actions," he continued. "Will he also have to use the antidote like we do? We don't know how to find out."
Ye Cheng asked again: "What happens each time the antidote is delivered to you and all the dead men?"
The man explained, saying, "Each time the antidote is delivered, it's handled personally by the Marshal himself or his designated courier. The antidote is packaged in waterproof wax paper and sealed with special fire lacquer and a stamp. Each time the antidote is delivered, the Marshal inspects each package personally to ensure there are no problems before handing it over to his personal bodyguard. Then, his personal bodyguard will distribute it to us."
As he spoke, he continued, "When we receive the antidote, we line up in order and receive it according to procedure. After receiving the antidote, we must immediately take it and not secretly keep any of it for ourselves."
"After we've finished taking the antidote under the Marshal's personal bodyguard's supervision," he said, "we will also distribute the antidote to the dead men and their families together. The entire process is basically consistent, and the dead men and their families must complete the medication regimen under our supervision. That's how each time we take the medication is a completed process."
Li Yalin on the side couldn't help but ask: "I have a question - if you're unable to get the antidote and can only live for seven days, why do they need to supervise us to make sure we take the antidote? Is it possible that someone will intentionally not take the antidote they're given?"
The man forced a bitter smile and said, "Regardless of whether it's us or the dead men, we've always thought about resisting. Although we know we can't defeat the entire organization, there is still some psychological comfort. In the past, many dead men have deliberately refused to take their antidote and kept multiple doses for themselves, hoping to find a way to help one person escape and reveal the truth to the outside world. But every time it ended in failure, and that's why the organization requires us to take our medication under supervision."
Ye Cheng listened until then and opened his mouth to say: "So, the antidote given to you is special, but only the Marshal knows how it prevents counterfeits. Therefore, after the antidote arrives, he will handle it personally and verify its authenticity before distributing it to us. Only then will he distribute it to the dead men and their families."
"That's correct," the man nodded, saying, "The entire process is actually very strict."
Ye Cheng asked again: "What features do you think the antidote has in terms of preventing counterfeits?"
"That's..." the man hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and said: "I also can't be certain about what features prevent counterfeits, although each package is opened in front of us and distributed to us. But the wax used to seal the packages is reheated every time, and you know that once it's heated up, the original patterns are gone. So I don't know what kind of mark was on the original packaging."
Ye Cheng nodded slightly and said: "So, if we want to sneakily switch the medicine, then wait for the Marshal to take it and deceive him, it's not possible. If I were to find a way to switch the medicine in the middle, it would definitely destroy the original anti-counterfeiting marks, and when the Marshal gets the medicine, he'll immediately realize something is wrong."
"That's right," the man agreed, saying: "We don't know how many anti-counterfeiting marks are on the packaging, and they could be more than just the wax seal. As long as we're careless for a moment, it would be like putting the cart before the horse."
Li Yalin listened until then and couldn't help but say with a wistful expression: "If you can really remove the poison from over 1,000 dead soldiers and several hundred cavalrymen, even if they don't use them for anything, once they escape, it would be enough to make this organization go crazy. Thousands of people fleeing would be too much for them to handle."
Ye Cheng laughed without realizing it and said: "Actually, to the organization, even if all 1,000 people ran away, it wouldn't have any impact. After all, this is just one of their many bases. Even if someone were to take out the entire base, it would be like pulling a tooth for them – it wouldn't hurt their overall strength at all. As long as they still have other bases, it's not a big deal."
Ye Cheng continued: "It's just like the United States having so many military bases around the world. If someone were to take out one of them, it would be a hassle for the White House and Pentagon, but it wouldn't really hurt their overall national power at all."
Li Yalin blinked slightly and then nodded and said: "Ye Cheng is right – this organization's influence is too great to be underestimated. Even if someone takes out just one base, it's not a big deal to them."
Ye Cheng smiled playfully and said offhandedly: "Since we can't fool the Marshal anyway, why not just turn him into our own person? That way, we could really achieve what we want – to deceive the heavens without being detected!"
The leader of the cavalry looked puzzled and asked: "Mr. Ye, how do you plan to carry out this idea? The Marshal is the organization's most powerful figure, with absolute authority over everyone in the base. How can he become our own person?"
Ye Cheng smiled and said calmly: "Don't worry about that part. As long as I see him, I'll be able to make him do whatever I want."
It's Ye Cheng's trick to use spiritual energy to brainwash someone, and he's tried it many times without any satisfaction. JrNovels.com
