Old Ancestor: Thrown Out By The Nanny From The Start

Chapter 217: Inhabitable Planet

Seeing how agitated Oraman was, Maruse tried to calm him down.

“Mr. Oraman, we can’t kill Dr. Leo! We can’t lose him!”

However, Oraman pushed Maruse away and aimed the gun at him.

Maruse immediately raised his hands. “Mr. Oraman, what are you doing?”

Oraman said grimly, “I’m going to kill half of your people. What do you think?”

“I… I…”

“Will you do it? Answer me! Do you want to die, too?”

Seeing Oraman’s finger on the trigger, Maruse immediately said, “Yes! I’ll do it! Mr. Oraman, please calm down! I would never disobey you!”

Oraman extended his free hand. “In that case, give me the remote control!”

“What remote control?”

“What do you think? The remote detonator of Cabin-8!”

The passengers in Cabin-8 were the soldiers’ family members. The remote control was connected to the infrared transmitter beneath Cabin-8. Once he pressed the button, Cabin-8 would be blown away.

The chain of command was meaningless now. If the people wanted to revolt, they could depose Oraman at any moment.

Oraman had made preparations beforehand. He let all the family members of the soldiers go to Cabin-8 for free. Moreover, the cabin wasn’t connected to other cabins. It was an independent space.

The soldiers and their families were elated because they could board the best ark for free. However, they didn’t know it was only part of Oraman’s plan. If things went out of control, the family members would become Oraman’s bargaining chips.

“Mr. Oraman, you—”

“Give it to me!”

“Mr. Oraman, please be reasonable!”

“Give it to me, or I’ll shoot you and take it from you!”

Maruse was scared and immediately gave him the remote control.

Oraman aimed his gun at someone else. “Get rid of a million people for me now!”

“Mr. Oraman, that’s too many…”

“Stop nagging! Just do as you’re told! Do you want to die?”

“Yes! I’m on it!”

...

The passengers were still enjoying their lives on Eternity. They had wine, steaks, and fruit in every meal. Life was good.

Their living standards hadn’t reduced much. They watched the bleak scene outside while chatting happily. Nothing seemed to worry them.

It had been a month and a half since they arrived at Mars, and the excitement hadn’t faded yet. Maybe they would soon get tired of the view. But not yet.

Oraman had been brainwashing them, filling them with fantasies.

“I heard the president is going to change that section into a lake!”

“That’s a great idea! I saw a mountain over there yesterday. If we can build a villa up there, I think it’ll be really comfortable!”

“According to Mr. Oraman, they’ll finish reconstructing the first area next month. It’ll be like living on Earth again, and we won’t need to stay here anymore!”

“Mr. Oraman is amazing! The housing price on Mars will be so low in the future, and I’ll buy the entire city! I’ll marry a hundred women!”

“In that case, I’ll marry a hundred men!”

“That’s not going to happen, sweetheart. We men are much more important here. Can you work on the construction site outside? Can you carry large rocks? We men are the chief contributors.”

“Mars is full of potential. Based on Mr. Oraman’s plan, Mars will have the same environment as Earth in a year and exceed Earth in three years. Those idiots on Earth will beg us to bring them to Mars.”

“If they want to come, they’ll have to become my slaves!”

...

They were still chatting excitedly when a group of soldiers entered their cabin. The passengers belonged to a social class that had seen enough major events, and the sight of the soldiers didn’t affect them.

Moreover, they had seen the soldiers many times in the past two months and had known them well by now.

“Jerry, what brings you here today? Don’t have work outside?” A businessman raised his glass and smiled at Jerry. “Would you like to join us?”

Jerry was the soldier in charge of Cabin-10. However, his usual smile had vanished from his face. He looked rather grave as if he had just lost his father.

“Jerry, why the serious look? A problem at work? That’s alright. We can wait. A few more months won’t be a problem. Eternity is such a comfortable place to live in. Moreover, there are so many beautiful women, and I don’t mind staying here for a bit longer.”

“You’re such a dog!” Another man teased him.

Jerry pointed at the men in the room and told the soldiers behind him, “Take them down! Then take them outside to be executed later!”

“Yes, sir!” The soldiers stepped out and pinned the wealthy men on the floor.

The crowd was shocked and backed away.

“Jerry, what are you doing?”

“What did we do? Why are you doing this? We’re paying customers!”

“Jerry, what did they do? Why are you arresting them?”

“We paid a billion to get aboard, and this is how you treat us! Jerry, get Maruse! I’ll file a complaint!”

Jerry showed no sympathy. “I’m sorry, Mr. Putoc, but it’s Mr. Maruse’s decision!”

A passenger stepped out and asked, “What? Mr. Maruse’s decision? Why?”

Jerry looked at the man. “It’s not just them. You’re going to be executed, too!”

The man was terrified. He didn’t expect such an answer!

“Are you nuts? Why me? Jerry, take me to Maruse!”

“You’ll see him soon. Arrest all the men in Cabin-10, as well as all the women over 45 years old! Mr. Maruse says they’re useless because they can’t bear children anymore!”
