Shattered Ideals: The Blood Feast Organization Becomes Bandits

"The insignia on these marks indicates they belong to that infamous organization— the Blood Feast Armed Forces."

"This is an organization composed of vicious and ruthless individuals, wanted criminals in all settlements."

Walti revealed all the information he knew.

The Blood Feast Organization was originally a resistance group formed by a group of oppressed people who couldn't survive. At that time, they didn't have this name; they were called Radiance.

Because certain groups in those central hubs acted unethically, they seized most of the resources and refused to share them with those at the bottom, causing many people to struggle to survive.

In one of those small settlements, someone started a protest, demanding that those in the upper class share the resources they deserve with those in the lower class.

"We've worked hard, and we shouldn't receive so little in return. Your constant exploitation and oppression will only drag the whole world down with you!"

How many newborns have we had?

"Without us, let's see if you lords can still enjoy your high and mighty lives."

Using the pretext of righteousness, he gathered a group of like-minded partners and launched an attack on those large settlements.

They looted a large amount of supplies and distributed them to other people who were starving.

Initially, their actions garnered many followers, and as more and more people joined them, they became a massive force that no one dared to provoke.

If they establish a community and then implement their ideals equally, perhaps they will eventually become the largest power in the world.

Unfortunately, just as they were about to establish a settlement, the initiator was killed in a counterattack by the central settlement, and most of his followers were also killed or wounded.

They barely escaped the encirclement and suppression by the major settlements, only to become wandering Wandering Soul in the wasteland.

They constantly plundered other people's supplies, initially targeting only the upper class. However, their actions attracted the attention and led to them being hunted down by those same people.

This time, all the women and children who followed them died, and only a portion of the strong men escaped.

Forced to lose their last vestiges of humanity, they became consumed by intense malice, attacking others indiscriminately. They began to commit all sorts of atrocities, killing anyone they encountered.

If they encounter a caravan or hunting party in the wild, they will rob them of their belongings and kill everyone, leaving no one alive.

Although they were constantly wanted by the people in the area, they didn't stay in one place for long; they would fight and run away.

Gradually, they absorbed some people who had fled into the wild and established the Blood Feast Organization.

To become a notorious criminal whom everyone hates.

After hearing this, Du Jiashi and the others were filled with sighs.

The ideas and principles of the Blood Feast Organization's predecessor felt very familiar to Du Jiashi and others who were born and raised in the Xia Kingdom.

"It's a pity. If the leader who built this Radiance organization hadn't died, it wouldn't have ended up like this."

"His death represents the shattering of ideals, but there are still people who hold onto these ideals. Unfortunately, the death of his loved ones has completely destroyed these ideals."

Du Jiashi sighed, "If they hadn't later degenerated to the point of wantonly slaughtering others, perhaps..."

Yang Yu: "Their beliefs have been completely distorted. Seeing no future, they have probably become a group of blood-red ghosts. Their hearts are long dead, leaving only inhuman shells."

Xu Rou: "No matter how tragic and miserable their past may be, when they drag innocent people down to hell with their own hands, they also become damned demons."

Yin Nu: "In other words, we don't need to hold back anymore."

Walti: "Are you searching for them because they attacked you?"

Walti vaguely guessed their intentions. Did these madmen even realize what kind of monster they had provoked?

"Their whereabouts are unpredictable, and finding them is no easy task. Many caravans and expeditions in various settlements have been attacked by them. Everyone hates them to the core, but no one can do anything about it."

Unlike the Radiance Organization, which had a base, the Blood Feast Organization abandoned the concept of a gathering place and was simply a group of itinerant bandits.

They may have places to rest, but they never stay in one place for too long.

Meanwhile, the settlements with fixed addresses are the ones that suffer the most from the attacks, being used as fixed resource spawn points, with the Blood Feast Organization frequently coming to these settlements to plunder resources.

They used the looted supplies to nourish themselves.

Walti gave a wry smile, "Those people in the central settlements must be having a real headache right now, being targeted by such a pack of reckless mad dogs, they're hesitant and timid in everything they do."

"What should we do now?" Du Jiashi asked.

Xu Rou: "We don't know the situation nearby, but since they've been there, it means their main force is still nearby."

Yang Yu analyzed, "They must have split into many small teams, searching for resources to plunder. Ordinary caravans and hunting parties from settlements are no match for them."

"If they encounter a large hunting party in a gathering place, they will notify the others to assemble and attack the target together."

Du Jiashi: "This is a bit difficult. Their attacks are completely random, making it hard for us to pinpoint their location."

Yin Nu: "Could we use bait to lure them into making a move?"

Du Jiashi: "What if they've already left here and gone to other areas?"

Mi Lan: "In fact, they might come looking for us."

"What?" x4.

"Hehe, you guys don't know yet? Oh right, you really don't know. Don't forget, the mission Senior Bai Zuo gave you was never to find the Blood Feast Organization!" Mi Lan wagged her finger and said mischievously.

"I just want you to confirm whether this White Sand Settlement has any connection with the Blood Feast Organization. After all, this is the closest settlement to that place."

"At first, they were highly suspicious, but after hearing what this person said, the suspicion against the White Sand Settlement was dispelled."

"If the Blood Feast Organization were truly that famous, one could easily find out about them by asking around elsewhere. The people of the White Sand Settlement wouldn't lie about this."

The four newlyweds gaped open and exclaimed in disbelief, "Huh?"

"Wait, so we had the wrong goal from the start?"

"Lord Bai Zuo has made himself so clear, yet we misunderstood him."

"No, no, no, ultimately we just want to find this group of people."
