Revenge After Death

Chapter 783

Jimmy took in a sharp breath. "Now that Steven is already dead for some time..."

Stephanie coldly glanced over at him. He stopped talking and went to hide in the corner.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Carol remained silent, only sparing her a glance once.

Stephanie sat on the ground unmoving, quietly closing her eyes.

"We're done for good. None of us can escape now," Jimmy said after a while, figuring that he must have lost his mind to have believed in her words.

"She wouldn't have come without having absolute certainty. She has been gambling the moment she stepped onto this cargo ship," Carol said, her voice low as she indicated for him to keep quiet. "You'd better keep your mouth shut for now. We'll definitely be done for good if you make her angry."

She knew all too well what Stephanie was like. Back in the orphanage, she would stab someone with a knife if she got unhappy.

Jimmy felt chills running down his back and decided to leave it to fate. He closed his eyes and stopped talking. Stephanie sat in her corner quietly, wanting to recharge as she felt too lethargic. "Are you still there?"

She had a dream that night. She dreamt of falling into darkness and constantly calling for Steven to get his response.

Yet he never gave her one.

"Steven!"

Sunlight streamed in through the door crack by the time she woke up.

The sounds of waves were loud as they were all locked inside a container on the dock.

Stephanie got up and walked to the entrance of the container, looking out. She found the sun shining brightly on the sea today.

It was already daytime. Jimmy was still asleep, while Carol seemed to have not slept a wink.

"The Othard region's Genome Society will disappear instantly if we destroy this ship," she said hoarsely.

"If we destroy this ship, there'll always be others. There's too much trash in this world, piling up one after another. "Stephanie turned and looked at Carol.

"Someone has to deal with the trash regardless of the quantity. Although the trash on the streets never stops, the sanitary workers still come and go. Some jobs just have to be done, even when people think of the workers as the lowest of the low," Carol said, laughing sardonically.

"It's just like how many of the wealthy today think they're noble, standing high above and looking down on everyone else. But society is built by different layers. Without the lower classes, how could they sustain their so- called elite lives?"

Carol got up and looked at the light that was streaming in. "It's foolish to think that you can build a skyscraper without laying its foundations."

"So, what's your purpose behind taking up the Rebels, then? Is it to wipe out these elites and eliminate class divisions so that you can create a so-called equal world?" Stephanie found Carol's ideas a little too naive.

She continued, "Conflicts exist when people are around. The unpredictability of human nature is what creates this vibrant and complex society. Changing it is much harder than you think."

Carol said, "Money makes the world go round. These wealthy people have already built a large network to control the entire world. Genome Society holds the key to the global economy, and the Othard region is just a part of it!

"If we could just make use of it and utilize the Reincarnation Project... Even if we can't achieve it in ten, 20, or 30 years, surely, we'd be able to reach the pinnacle if we were to live up to a hundred or 200 years old!"

Carol was trying to convince Stephanie to join the Rebels. They could let a selected few reincarnate using the technology, repeating it up until they managed to turn into opportunists behind the large network.

"We're both geniuses, Stephanie. We have the ability to dominate the world. God created us to rise above others and be His right-hand men!" she said, pointing at her brain.
