Chapter 50: The Heavy but Dispensable Burden

Inside a secret base in the western mountain area of the Western Continent.

Xia Zhou was pacing around his desk, deeply troubled.

Having listened to Bictris's analysis, he too was convinced that a great disaster was imminent for the Western Continent.

But now... Xia Zhou was filled with the absurd feeling as if the emperor himself was leading a rebellion.

The Holy Place was actually willing to allow Demons to slaughter ordinary people because the resource output efficiency of the Western Continent was low, in order to justifiably relocate the residents from the Eastern Continent.

This self-defeating behavior was difficult for Xia Zhou, who was born into a society of informational civilization, to understand.
