Chapter 473 Fairness! Fairness! It's all about fairness! (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking further subscriptions!)
"Is everyone here?"

Upon seeing Honglu arrive with the city defense troops and the prisoners of the hunters, Wu Xian finally spoke.

At the same time, his gaze swept over Drake, Victor, Mayway, Elon lying immobile on a stretcher, and Dr. Flynn, who was in charge of researching the Croto system, before finally settling on Morgan, who was kneeling, with a slight smile playing on his lips.

“Very good. Apart from Dr. Carrie and Seng, who have already died at my hands, all the senior officials of the Lighthouse are here. So, next, we should have a proper discussion about the Three Laws and the future development of the Lighthouse.”

After he finished speaking, the hall fell silent. Whether it was the senior management of the Lighthouse or the city defense soldiers and hunters, they couldn't help but look at each other, not understanding what Wu Xian was planning to do.

Discussing the Three Laws?

What does this mean? Does he intend to revise the content of the Three Laws and reissue them in another form?

Wu Xian didn't give everyone much time to speculate before speaking again:
"I believe everyone here understands that the so-called Three Laws are actually designed to solve the resource crisis on the Lighthouse."

Because the lighthouse is currently facing a shortage of supplies, unable to provide enough food for everyone, and even lacking the energy to maintain its buoyancy, a genetic hierarchy system is needed to redistribute resources, namely the so-called Upper Class and Lower Class.

"In addition, in order to manage the residents of the lighthouse more efficiently, the first of the three laws is to eliminate all kinship ties."

"This is the foundation of the three laws, and also a last resort, because not all family members are upper class or lower class. If everyone continues to live according to their original family relationships, then the so-called resource allocation becomes a mere formality."

After all, how could a mother or father of a commoner remain indifferent to seeing their children, who are of lower status, eating insects? And how could someone who deeply loves their wife or husband be willing to see their beloved procreate with someone else?

"That's why Lord Morgan proposed the rule to abolish kinship, with the aim of suppressing human emotions and making people live like robots."

At this point, Wu Xian looked at the stunned crowd and then said something that surprised everyone.

"To be honest, I don't think there's anything wrong with the Three Laws. In fact, they can be said to be the best option for resolving the Beacon Crisis, because they are the survival rules of the apocalypse."

"Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest. For humanity in the apocalypse, only by living can there be hope, and only in this way can human civilization continue to exist..."

Incidentally, my genetic testing also indicates I'm from an upper-class family, and I'm orphaned and childless. Furthermore, because I work in the research department and don't lack contribution points, under the Three Laws system, I could be considered a beneficiary, and originally the last person who should oppose it.

Upon hearing this, Morgan, who had been in a state of numbness, suddenly reacted. He looked up at Wu Xian with deep doubt in his eyes.

Since you agree with the principles of the Three Laws and their immense benefits, why did you oppose yourself and wipe out the hunters who were suppressing the rebellion? What are you after?

Could it be that after obtaining the power of the Abyss, he also developed a desire for power, and that being an upper-class citizen was not enough for him, and he wanted to go further and become the city lord of the Lighthouse?

"Don't worry, I have no interest in the position of city lord, nor do I deign to be one."

Seemingly noticing Morgan's confusion, Wu Xian spoke calmly, then raised his hand and gently waved it. Charles, who was being held in May's arms, was pulled out by an invisible mental force and thrown next to Morgan.

"Charles!"

Morgan's expression suddenly tensed, and even Red Heron's face changed drastically upon seeing this. Ignoring Drake's attempts to stop her, she exclaimed, "Wait! This has nothing to do with Charles, he's still a..."

"Of course I know he's a child, and he's our city lord's only child."

Wu Xian interrupted Hong Lu, simultaneously raising his hand and pressing down, immobilizing her with invisible mental force. He then looked at Morgan and said in a mocking tone:

“As I just said, the foundation of the Three Laws is the abolition of all kinship ties, but Lord Morgan, can you do that yourself?” “As far as I know, our young master Charles will become the head of the Light and Shadow Society tomorrow, listening to the voice of the Lord of Light and Shadow, conveying divine messages to him, and becoming the spiritual sustenance of the residents of the Lighthouse…”

Such a lofty and important position, second only to the emperor in the lighthouse, but wouldn't you say it? And wouldn't you guess it, this person happens to be your son, a little kid not even ten years old.

"And your wife, Lady Mayweather, according to the three laws of genetic breeding, she should be able to breed with other superior people who possess advanced genes in the future, and give birth to even better children."

Interestingly, the organization responsible for managing and allocating breeding duties happens to be the Light and Shadow Society. Do you think that once young Master Charles finds out about this, he might arrange for other men to enter his mother's body, so he can have a few more younger siblings next year?

"Oh! By the way, you also have an adopted daughter who looks very much like Madam Meiwei. What are your plans for her future? The Hunters, the City Defense Force, or the Research Department? Or perhaps she'll become the commander-in-chief of the central control room that controls the lifeline of the Lighthouse?"

Wu Xian's voice became increasingly sarcastic, and the expressions of those around him who heard these words changed drastically, their gazes toward Morgan gradually turning contemptuous.

Good heavens, you enacted three laws, abolished all kinship ties, and forced breeding and mating, and yet here you are, your son became the leader, your wife still sleeps with you, and you've even made arrangements for your adopted daughter, who is very likely to hold an important position in the Lighthouse...

So all the so-called sacrifices are other people's business, and you and the people around you can't suffer any hardship, and you have to step on other people's corpses to get to the top.

Bah! I've never seen such a shameless person.

"No, that's not it, I just..."

Upon hearing this, Morgan broke out in a cold sweat. He wanted to retort, but he felt as if something was blocking his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.

"You're just a sophisticated egoist, using the slogan of ensuring the future survival of the beacon to enact cold, hard systems, yet you're unwilling to lead by example. When someone objects, you use violence to suppress them until those dissenting voices completely disappear and no one questions your decisions anymore."

Wu Xian sneered, then stood up and slowly walked towards Morgan.

Although Charles was frightened, he mustered his courage and stood in front of Morgan, shouting, "You are not allowed to hurt my father!"

Wu Xian ignored the future villain, and with a thought, tossed him aside again, then whispered a devilish murmur to Morgan.

"Do you understand now? The reason I oppose the Three Laws is actually for three things—fairness! Fairness! And fucking fairness!"

"But unfortunately, you, as the city lord, cannot do this. Since that's the case, I can only solve it in my own way."

As he said this, Wu Xian seemed to have thought of something, glanced at Mayway who had run over and was holding Charles in her arms, and said in a playful tone:

"Of course, considering how much you've devoted to the Lighthouse over the years, if you can agree to a few reasonable requests, there's still room for negotiation. I can even help you implement the Three Laws; that's not out of the question."

"whats the matter."

Morgan's heart tightened slightly. He knew this might be a trap set by Wu Xian, but he still asked.

"First, have your wife go to the Dawn Hall and perform breeding tasks with other men starting today, for a month, until she tests positive for pregnancy."

"Secondly, classify your son Charles as a Dustman, and from now on, he will live with the other Dustmen in the lower levels of the Lighthouse. I've already thought of a number for him: 9527. This will be his lifelong code name..."
