Doomsday Revenge: Payback Time (Josie) novel Chapter 593

Chapter 593.

The Ox Envoy understood Josie Quinn’s meaning. It gave her a respectful nod, performed a brief bow, and turned to trot away.

Once the messenger was gone, Cyrus Finch burst into laughter.”How fascinating! It seems they actually read the books you gave them. They even know about nukes now.”

“Yeah,” Josie said. “I originally wanted them to understand how terrifying modern weaponry are so they’d learn their place and stop messing with us. I didn’t expect them to focus on nuclear radiation. They probably saw you and Lirio successfully level up and decided they wanted a shortcut, too.”

Josie sneered. “I could give you a nuke because we share the same origin. Besides, our goals and beliefs are aligned. But a bunch of mutand a< Chapter 593 nimals think they can negotiate with me? They aren’t worthy.”

“Their ambition is certainly impressive, Cyrus noted. If they won’t listen, we’ll just beat them into submission. A pack of animals thinking they can stand above humanity? What a joke.”

‘No rush. Let’s wait and see,” Josie replied. “We’ll ignore them for now and focus on building our Underground Sanctuary. When they eventually want to join, we’ll talk then. If they still refuse to cooperate with the human camp by then, they can fight their own battles. It’s ny if they want to face the alien invasion alone. If they’re smart, they’ll get a seat at the table. If not, they’ll end up on the menu,” Josie said coldy

Cyrus smiled and nodded. ‘Fine. We’ll do it your way.”

Cyrus was finding himself admiring Josie more and more. It was the admiration of a comrade-in-arms. Setting aside their differing faction they were actually very similar: they were both pragmatically self-interested. Everything they did was predicated on whether it benefited them. They didn’t have much “universal altruism” for the world; any altruism they showed was ultimately for their own survival.

To him, that was infinitely better than those hypocritical ‘gentlemen.” How could anyone be truly selfless? Well, there was one person-Josie’s mother. But people like her were far too rare. Most people were like Josie: they had their own interests, but they also had bottom lines and principles,

As long as it didn’t violate her principles, she didn’t mind giving humanity a hand, provided they were worthy of her effort. If the human cam ever betrayed her, Josie wouldn’t lift a finger to save them. They could all rot for all she cared. But for now, the humans were being very well-behaved, following Josie’s every word. It seemed no one dared to betray her. Cyrus found that a little disappointing.
