Chapter 240: Ungrateful Bastards
【Mystic Fangs】
【Three-Star Relic】
[Effect: Piercing the skin will cause bleeding non-stop, and can cause a minimum of damage to any tough defense]
[Heroic Spirit's Title Unknown' has rejected your summons]
【Returned to History】
Bai Yu: "? ”
Yo he!
It's pretty stubborn!
This is the first time that I have touched a holy relic but cannot obtain information about the other party.
It seems that the other party's willingness to resist is particularly strong.
Not even being able to read the information means that there is no way to make an easy contract at the moment.
"I don't know how many times I have to eat the guarantee before I can make a contract."
Bai Yu said to himself: "But for the sake of a three-star heroic spirit, it's worth ...... Even the three-star Heroic Soul in the afterimage state is earned by blood. ”
Naturally, he does not lack these patiences, because of the existence of the law of guarantees, he has enough tolerance for many things, and others will get tired of doing it a few times, and he will do it at least for the tenth time.
At this point, all points have been depleted.
【Shop closed】
【Limited time event has ended】
I took a trip to the limited-time event and gained a lot.
Bai Yu thought about it, otherwise he would just find a time to give away the fashion at hand.
Dragon Vein Realm...... I'm afraid it's not good, it's the spiritual world over there.
It's better to log in to the dungeon and take a look.,Recently, I've only been focusing on brushing the dragon vein realm.。
Just thinking about it, Bai Yu clicked on the dungeon, and immediately noticed that the dungeon had been updated again.
【Intermediate Training Camp】
[Recommended level: 20~35]
With Bai Yu breaking through to level 20 and a new weekly dungeon, the higher the level of the weekly book, the more the output will naturally be, and the rewards will be more generous.
However, the corresponding difficulty has also been increased, and there is an additional line of notes.
【Recommended number:3~4】
But the only intact heroic spirit that Bai Yu can drive is an ignorant ghost.
emmm…… It seems that the contract snakehead witch is also imperative.
I clicked on the Intermediate Bootcamp.
[The current number of people is lower than the recommended number, do you confirm entry?] 】
"No."
【Katori Dokan (Level 3 Difficulty)】
[Recommended level: 25~35]
【Enter】
"Yes."
……
The outskirts of Nanling City.
The crowd helped each other out of the dark shadows.
The people who walked out of the passage of the shadow world had expressions on their faces that they would have survived the catastrophe.
Zhou Liu had just used up the last bottle of potion and fed it to a weak night watchman, who suddenly felt much better and should be able to hold on to the operating table.
"Report to Team Zhou!"
"How's it going?" She hesitated and put the bottle back in her pocket.
"It has been confirmed that the boundary of the Shadow World has shrunk to a diameter of five meters, and at the current rate, it will disappear completely in a maximum of twelve hours." The young watchman read out the inferences he had observed.
"Have you informed the logistics?"
"I've been contacted."
"Well, arrange for them to enter the movie world to transport the bodies of all the war dead, and in order to ensure safety, we must also arrange for the troops in charge of security to follow." Zhou Liu gave orders in an orderly manner, but at this time, her thinking became clearer and clearer, and she became more and more annoyed...... Why are you quite good at 'washing the floor'?
The watchman responded: "Yes!" ”
He was about to turn around when he heard Zhou Liu ask, "Wait...... Haven't you lost a little bit? ”
"What are you talking about?"
"Casualty figures!" Zhou Liu said calmly: "I want the casualty ratio!" ”
“…… At present, the death toll may be around 70 and the number of injured is more than 90. ”
"The total number of people is ......"
"There should be about three hundred people involved in it."
"I see." After listening to the numbers, Zhou Liu's expression did not change by half a minute, waved his hand, and asked the young watchman to go and inform the logistics staff.
She turned around and planned to walk towards the next casualty, but when she turned around, she realized that there were no more casualty, all of them had been transported.
Her busyness stopped.
After the end of the Shadow World invasion, the logistics were in place and efficient faster than expected, with makeshift medical cabins, prepared operating rooms, hospital beds, and ambulances for transport...... Most of the city's medical resources were forcibly used, and soon she had nothing to do.
I can only stand alone in the corner, looking at the crowd around me, neither standing nor sitting.
"You look like your conscience is tormented by guilt."
Zhou Liu raised her eyes and looked at Mu Yaoxi, who had changed into a clean sportswear, and she tried to squeeze out a smile.
The next moment, Mu Yaoxi threw a hot towel and smashed it on her face: "Wipe your face, don't smile so reluctantly, it's heart-wrenching to watch...... Now that they have all come out alive, laughing and crying for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe is better than holding back and doing nothing. ”
Zhou Liu held the warm hot towel, this heat made her feel relaxed for a long time, she wiped her cheeks, and lifted her tired and stiff face: "I can't laugh or cry." ”
"Is it because of the close to 50 percent casualty rate?" Mu Yaoxi raised her eyebrows slightly: "You are really greedy." ”
"Greedy?"
"Usually this kind of shadow world invasion occurs, and it is not uncommon for all the people involved in it to die, and this time it is also a siege battle that reappears in history...... It's not just half of it, it's half of it. Mu Yaoxi said in an old-fashioned manner: "This is already quite incredible. ”
"So, is it greed to desire more people?" Zhou Liu asked bitterly.
"If there is no unknown editor of fate...... You and I may not make it out alive. ”
Mu Yaoxi stared at the dark entrance of the shadow world: "Your idea is not wrong. ”
"I also imagined that if he had appeared early in the morning, maybe the outcome would have been different, maybe no one would have to die."
"However, if you think so, don't you decide in your heart that you and I are nothing?"
"It's also disrespectful to the dead – so there's no if, just accept the reality."
"Accept the cruel humiliation from reality, and then you can be ashamed and courageous."
Zhou Liu said in a trance: "It is worthy of the innate heroic spirit bloodline, you are stronger than me, so your achievements in the future will far surpass me...... But I'm just hoping to make it a little better. ”
She closed her eyes tiredly, and her whole heart sank: "Maybe I'm wrong, I'm trying in the wrong direction." ”
Mu Yaoxi's heart was shocked, but don't collapse the other party's mentality, and hurriedly want to speak.
saw Zhou Liu reopen his eyes, and his eyes became joyless and sad: "Fortunately, it's not too late to change now." ”
If all these years have taken a fork in the road, then it is time for the things to be done to change.
Thinking so, she smiled faintly, "I think I'll have to go back and get some sleep...... Thank you for the hot towel, Miss Muta. ”
"It's too raw." Mu Yaoxi raised her eyebrows and said.
"The editor has been kind to me...... And more than once, the great favor has not been repaid, so I can't tell you about him. Zhou Liu deliberately shouted a little.
"He's too mysterious, and he's just as dangerous, if that power were to point a butcher's knife at himself......"
"You know it's impossible."
"Nothing is impossible."
"I'm sure he won't do that."
"I thought you were a very rational person who only believed in the power of the rule of law."
"I was indeed this kind of person in the past, but I have met people who cannot be punished by the legal system." Zhou Liu looked up at the sky and let out a sneer: "The one who is willing to lend a hand to me is the other party." ”
She turned her back to Mu Yaoxi and left, stopped after walking five steps away, and continued: "It's the same this time. ”
"If it weren't for those invisible hands, why would support come so late?"
"Why are so many people dying, Miss Muta, do you really think...... Don't they have to take even the slightest responsibility? ”
"But the system is reasonable, so how can I seek justice for the war dead, and can the legal system give me the answer?"
Mu Yaoxi couldn't answer this question, her fingertips were clenched, but she was silent when she spoke.
"You actually know very well, but you don't care, because those hands can't interfere with your position, you know that as long as you go back to the capital, you are still the true legend of the Martial Saint...... Not only do they not dare to do anything to you, but they also have to redouble their efforts to curry favor with you, so as not to get your revenge for this. Zhou Liu simply said: "This is the difference between you and me - although we have been side by side, you and I are not all the way after all." ”
Mu Yaoxi also became a little angry when she heard this: "On the battlefield, I have never spared my life!" What is called not a person all the way! ”
"I know, so I respect you for that." Zhou Liu refused to look back, but said silently: "I agree that you are a kind and noble person, but unfortunately in this world, you stand too high, so we can't empathize...... Like, you think it's good to have so many people alive, but I know I can't be satisfied with that. ”
"The longer a person lives, the more he sees, the more pure and simple he is in the past."
"While I stayed up all night waiting for help, no one responded to me."
"But he came to the world of shadows, saved me, saved you, and saved so many people."
"Did he ask for anything in return, did he seek any benefit?"
"My heart is full of gratitude, and if I can do something for him in return, I will not hesitate to do it!"
"But what you're thinking is that his power is too dangerous to control, and his origins are too mysterious and need to be guarded."
"But to me, it doesn't matter at all!"
"No matter who he is or where he comes from, I only focus on what he does!"
"—He saved all of our lives!"
"We have received the same blessings and experienced the same thing, but we have come to very different conclusions."
"So, I can only assume that you and I can't empathize."
"From a rational point of view, of course, I know your identity, family background, and education, which led you to this conclusion, and it is not entirely your problem, or even ...... Originally, as the real power leader of the Nanling Mayor Night Division, I should also be on the same front as you. ”
"But I can't, and I don't want to."
"I don't want to be ungrateful."
"So you don't have to try to get any valid information from me about all the information about him."
"That's it."
"Miss Mu, we have split up, let's get together and disperse!"
Zhou Liu left.
Mu Yaoxi stood in the moonlight, unable to calm down for a long time.
Her teeth bit hard at her lower lip.
“…… It turned out that I was the ungrateful bastard. ”
"Is it because I'm standing too high?"
"But why hasn't anyone told me in the past......"
