Life Dungeon Game
Page 872
The 'K' on the screen seemed to have anticipated the commotion; he paused briefly before continuing,
"I'm standing here today to share something I've recently observed,"
He gently flipped his hand, and a loaf of bread was taken out of his sleeve and placed in his hand. Then he broke the bread in half, revealing the red filling inside to the camera.
Then, in a calm voice, he continued, "This bread looks like it has some kind of strawberry jam filling, but in fact, it's not strawberry jam, it's 'blood'."
He then placed the bread on a table behind him. "What I'm sharing today is an account of what I witnessed—a story about food and bloodshed—and this story is related to a small city called 'Saint Jon' in the southwest of Dawn City."
“I believe everyone is familiar with this city, and many people should have seen what happened last night about the ‘evil god sacrifice’ in St. John City.”
"But our main topic right now is not the sacrifice last night, but a 'sacrifice of the evil god' that has been buried in the veil for more than a decade and has taken place in St. John City."
He raised his hands, and a huge photograph was projected behind him, showing people locked in cages, emaciated like livestock.
The crowd below erupted in noise once more, but K continued narrating on screen.
“These are a ‘farm’ in St. John’s City. Of course, the people you see in the photos are not ‘livestock’ being raised; they are just ‘feed’.”
This statement was like a depth charge, making the already noisy crowd even more chaotic.
"And these feeds are used to feed the 'livestock',"
The figure in the image raised its hand again, and a twisted, terrifying monster appeared on the wall, "Like this."
Then, without waiting for people to react, he continued, "This monster looks like a strange beast? Could this be an incident of humans raising strange beasts? But unfortunately, that's not the case."
He flipped his palm over, and another anatomical diagram of a monster appeared on the wall, revealing...
The humanoid skeleton inside revealed that "this monster, which is called the 'Pollution Monster,' is actually also a 'human.'"
"vomit--"
This anatomical diagram obscures many details and isn't as disgusting as it seems, but someone in the crowd, for some reason, started gagging.
Soon, more and more people understood the core of what the figure on the screen had just said.
The essence of this so-called 'feeding' is actually 'humans eating human'.
The 'K' on the screen waited a moment, until many people had processed the information, before continuing, "So, why did these 'people' turn into monsters?"
He raised his hand, and the photo behind him transformed into a factory hall covered with various patterns, "because they are the 'blood' in the bread."
"The Kegete Group is a conglomerate that controls all the grain factories in St. John City and even the entire city. It claims to have the best efficient grain production technology in the entire Federation and can produce the most grain at the lowest cost."
A giant animated chart appeared behind 'K'.
"And the price of this efficiency is the lives of factory employees. Working in Kegete's food factory, in addition to the low wages and semi-mandatory high food consumption, requires paying an extra 'price'."
That is their 'life'.
"The average age of departure for employees at the Kegete Group factories is 43, but in reality, no employee can work a full 10 years at the Kegete Group."
"These employees often develop various occupational diseases and physical discomforts later in their careers, and their bodies cannot withstand the intensity of 14 hours of labor per day in the factory."
"Then they will be 'dismissed' by the Kegete Group in various ways. After leaving the factory, most of them will not live for more than six months before dying from illness."
"In fact, those who survive to leave the company are lucky, because the special 'machine' of the Kegete Group, all the factories under the group are actually a huge altar, which takes away the lives of the factory employees in exchange for high 'production efficiency'."
"During this process, the altar will naturally release the power of the evil god. Some people who have been in the factory for a long time will be corrupted by this power and transformed into twisted 'monsters,' which is the 'corruption monster' we just saw."
"Some of these corrupted monsters will be disposed of by organizations under the Kegete Group to use as a means of threatening and controlling key personnel; others will be kept and forced to kill each other to cultivate a twisted and powerful force."
"Of course, the food that feeds these monsters is 'living people'."
“These people who turn into polluted monsters will be registered as missing, and most of these missing persons cases are settled out of court by the Kegete Group.”
'K' raised his hand again, and the image behind him transformed into a data table. He paused for a moment,
"The average price per life is 1300 federal dollars."
"In St. John, a city completely controlled by the Kegete Group, most people can only choose to work as factory employees for the Kegete Group."
"But the Kegete Group and..."
We will not hire all workers, even if they are capable of doing so.
"They will make one person do the work of two, and keep a large number of workers unemployed indefinitely, so that the employees will not think about running away, and thus keep the employees only daring to ask for the minimum wage, because there are always cheaper employees available for them to choose from."
"In contrast to their low wages, they control the food prices in the entire city, making St. John, the largest grain-producing city in the eastern part of the Federation, the city with the most expensive food prices."
"The higher the consumption of citizens in St. John, the lower their wages, the poorer they become, and the more they overdraft their credit cards. The higher the cost of leaving their factories, even though employees know their lives are weakening, they dare not leave their jobs easily."
"Theoretically, they possess freedom, but in reality, they are burdened by invisible and heavy shackles, bound by chains, and ultimately can only become fuel in the Kejet Group's evil god altar, becoming raw materials for the Kejet Group to obtain excessive profits."
He lowered his hands, his eyes behind the mask drooping as he gazed at the people outside the screen.
"But is all of this right?"
"I want to ask everyone watching this: can you accept the choice between something bad and something even worse, a fate that inevitably leads to death?"
"Does this mean that if they want us to die, we can only watch helplessly as we are sent to our deaths, becoming fuel for their profits?"
"Why should conglomerates be able to decide our fate?"
“We labor, we produce, we create products, but the conglomerates take the lion’s share of the profits, and even use our lives to obtain excessive profits for them.”
"We are not slaves; we should have the right to control our own destiny and tear off our shackles."
"A person who wants to obtain oil from the lives of others should also be prepared to lose his life and everything else."
"Those enslaved by the Kejette Group, and those similarly enslaved, unite!"
"Break free from your shackles, and we can change the world."
The figure on the screen stroked the mask on their face, their voice calm and clear.
"Ladies and gentlemen, time can erase the color of masks, change the colors of mountains and rivers, and make memories hazy."
"But K never left."
The screen flickered and then returned to the original advertisement.
People lingered there, reluctant to leave.
Kavenka is pretty good, it'll be a little later.
Please vote for this super long chapter.
There should be another update later tonight.

“K······”
The girl sitting by the window looked down at the image on her bracelet, gazing at the figure under the hood.
Time flies like an arrow; two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Before she knew it, she was nineteen.
Last year, she was successfully admitted to Chenxi University and interned at Yinuo Media.
Her high school life has gradually faded from her memory.
Time seems to be the most ruthless cleaner in the world, erasing all traces of life.
But the image of the boy who wiped away her tears at the cemetery is still etched in her heart.
That encounter changed her life forever and led her to find the career she had always strived for.
Her gaze followed the movements of the people in the video.
Actually, the first time she saw 'K', she felt that the figure was very familiar.
It felt familiar, like that gentle boy who wiped away her tears.
She looked up at the bustling street outside the window.
Joey, is that you?
hum-
Just then, her bracelet vibrated, and a call came in. She answered the phone.
"Jessie, our parade has been arranged."
A young female voice came from the other end of the phone.
"You arrange for everyone to go to the usual place, I'll be right there."
Jessie smiled at the person on the other end of the phone and then hung up.
She slowly stood up, pushed open the tightly closed window, and let the morning breeze blow into the room, caressing her cheeks.
She gazed at the towering skyscrapers that seemed to reach into the clouds in the distance.
Take a deep breath.
She is no longer the little girl who would cry when she got excited.

November 25st
With the widespread dissemination of 'K's' video, Chenxi City's Yinuo Media specially arranged a live investigative report that deeply exposed the deeds of the Kaijiet Group.
The investigation received tremendous support in St. John's, and a great deal of information about the Kejette Group was brought to public attention.
Starting in Dawn City, a large-scale protest against and boycott of the Kegete Group swept across the entire Federation.
In particular, large-scale demonstrations and protests occurred in more than a dozen cities controlled by the Kejette Group.
A spokesperson for Kegett claimed: "This is fake news maliciously fabricated by Enoch Media to attack the Kegett Group. The Kegett Group is committed to providing high-quality food products to the entire Federation and provides its employees with the greatest possible protection."
The group will use legal means to protect its rights and interests.
Meanwhile, rumors circulated on federal networks that the Kegete Group was drastically blocking all news about 'K' and Enoch Media in cities where it held sway.
At the close of trading that day, Kegett's stock price fell by 3%.
