How to do it? There is nothing that can be done, after all, the deformed people are not the only ones now, but will be born continuously, and there is no way to deal with them.
Moreover, if children are forcibly handled in front of their parents, it will have a negative impact on their mental state, which is a very dangerous behavior in this god-forsaken place.
Therefore, for people like Ling Mengyu, "living on" seems to be the best adjective for these city-states today.
Since the deformed city-state has proven to be an unsuccessful attempt, most city-states have stopped this action since then.
The few city-states that continued this strategy were soon met with retribution, the wrath of the deformed people they banished.
They felt that they had no hope of survival, and they resented the motherland that had exiled them, so they finally decided to attack and risk their lives to retaliate.
When a city-state team escorted the deformed people, they decisively launched an attack. Although they were at a disadvantage in terms of strength, they had a numerical advantage in the deformed city-state.
So the escort team of the mother country was completely wiped out, and then they took the newly joined deformed people and set off in the direction of the mother country.
Before departure, in order to prevent the supplies in the city from being used by possible expedition teams, everything that could not be taken away was burned, and in the end even the city walls were destroyed.
Their level of destruction is much more thorough than that of monsters, because monsters will only attack the living and will not consciously destroy materials that can be used.
So after several days of traveling, they arrived at the city of their mother country, put on the coats of the escort team, and took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the city wall.
It was a brutal battle. Although some deformed people escaped, almost all the deformed people who were desperate for reality were slaughtered in the fight against the motherland.
Although this city-state suppressed the rebellion of the freaks, it also suffered heavy losses and had to seek alliances with other city-states.
After this news spread, it caused even greater panic about deformed people. Therefore, some city-states took decisive measures to eliminate all deformed people, or even exile them, to prevent them from becoming like these deformed people.
After a high-level collective meeting, City of Hope did not choose to deal with deformed people in such a cruel way, but decided to maintain the previous marginalization strategy.
"We are all human beings, but because of physical problems, some people can afford more work and some cannot."
This is the propaganda slogan of Hope City. In short, through such propaganda, the mentality of the abnormal people in the city can basically be considered stable.
After all, what else can be done? Is it really possible to start a civil war with normal people? That deformed city-state was driven to a dead end because of it.
The motherland did not give them any warmth. Due to their unstable mentality, they finally chose this terrible path of perishing together.
But things are different here in Hope City. The city-state's attitude towards them is quite good. Although there is a discriminatory strategy of marginalization, it really does not allow the deformed people in the city to adopt the strategy of being destroyed together.
The reason why City of Hope chose this path was naturally inspired by Ge Zhaodu, who told the audience during the live broadcast:
"Directly exterminating all deformed people will indeed allow the city-state to operate normally for a period of time, but on the contrary, it will perish faster than those city-states that are tolerant to deformed people."
"Because the proportion of deformed people will continue to rise, this strategy of eliminating all deformed people will ultimately result in a lack of sufficient population to run the city-state."
"And my strategy of tolerating deformed people can actually survive longer. After all, the normal population can be replenished by merging with those city-states that cannot sustain it first."
Ge Zhaodu had played "Land Abandoned by Gods" earlier and had accumulated quite a lot of experience, so the subsequent development of the situation was just as he expected.
Those city-states that eliminated all deformed people did indeed have no problem with deformed people. However, the population of the city-states was declining rapidly, and their size and area began to shrink. Soon they could no longer support themselves and had to choose a unified state.
This group of city-states with completely normal people helped the nearby city-states to live longer, but in the end it only delayed their decline.
Just like this, more than a hundred years later, in some city-states, deformed people have begun to occupy the mainstream, and even assumed leadership positions.
There is nothing that can be done about it, because normal people are now in the minority, and there is no way for normal people to maintain the existence of a city-state alone.
But normal people have come up with new methods. If we don’t exile deformed people, why don’t we exile ourselves? So normal people fled their city-states one after another and went to city-states where the proportion of deformed people was not too high.
For other city-states, it is naturally a matter of joy to be able to absorb refugees from normal people, and they accepted them without hesitation.
At first, the deformed people gave a default attitude towards this behavior, but after all, people's mentality will change. Soon, in some city-states, the deformed people took advantage of their numerical advantage and began to control and restrict normal people.
There are even some city-states that force normal people to intermarry with deformed people, because this combination can create offspring with a relatively low deformity rate.
This kind of behavior is a bit excessive, but what can be done if it is excessive? The golden age of post-apocalyptic city-states has ended, and every city-state is facing the problem of deformed people.
Even if Hope City hears about this kind of thing, each family can only clean up the snow in front of their own house and don't worry about the frost on other people's roofs. After all, there is no conditions for war in the apocalypse.
Of course, if a normal person escapes here, Hope City will still accommodate him, but if he is a deformed person, he will refuse to accept him.
The deformed people in the city-state don't have much objection to this. After all, only a high enough proportion of normal people can maintain a normal city-state.
Although they themselves are deformed people, they also fully recognize that that kind of deformed city-state cannot be sustained, so they should not push the city-state and run all the way in that direction. After all, they are not the unlucky ones now.
Although there will always be some individuals who are overflowing with sympathy, after all, we are in the end of the world now, and the overall attitude is still very objective and calm.
But it is exactly this that, more than seven hundred years after the end, the once-close city-states are no longer what they used to be, and suspicion and suspicion have taken over.
On the other hand, the population began to decline, making it impossible to maintain the scale of the former city-state, and had to voluntarily give up part of the city-state land to ensure effective monitoring of the remaining areas.
And those abandoned city-state lands soon turned into gloomy ghost ruins under the baptism of time, telling the story of the declining world.
Seeing that the land abandoned by the gods had become like this more than seven hundred years after her death, Ling Mengyu could only sigh.
Just like Suo Jian said when he first came back, the root of the world's suffering lies in Yongye. If Yongye does not solve it, all efforts will be in vain.
But can Yongye solve it? No, so what is happening now is just Eternal Night destroying human efforts, mocking human persistence, saying, everything you do is meaningless.
