25. Dead line (twenty-nine)

No one likes to be betrayed, and no one likes to be betrayed.

The kind of heart-chilling and despair that seems to be crushed and deprived by the whole world is difficult for people who have not really experienced it to understand. Only after being truly completely betrayed and hurt will one understand how vulnerable human relations – family, friendship, love, belief, worship – these things constructed by the ethereal human heart are in the face of absolute power.

Maybe it's not unreal, and people can always find a bond that can stand the test, and everyone in the world is not necessarily all traitors. But no matter how insignificant the betrayal, it will eventually leave traces in the depths of the heart. If you believe in everyone and the whole world, you are betrayed by everything you believe in, and even face each other with a sword. So even if this person is completely broken, it is not surprising that he will die in despair and madness while cursing the world and humanity.

From this point of view, Roland, who has not gone crazy and even maintained enough sanity, is particularly special, and to put it mildly, it is abnormal.

Betrayed by those who risked their lives to save and protect, by swords fought side by side from behind, and even those who value it are attacked and hunted down because of their value as hostages—normal people have long been desperate for everything, and only the thought of revenge against the world is left in their heads filled with anger and disappointment. No matter how rational and caring a person is, it is impossible to have even the slightest positive emotion in his mind at this time. After all, that's not something that can be accepted by reason, as long as there is still a breath, it will continue to curse the world, no matter how much you curse and resent, it is not enough.

Roland, who was able to maintain his rationality, did not project hatred and anger onto those who betrayed, which did seem a little ...... Particularly.

Only Roland himself knew that the reason why he was still rational and calm was neither because of his overflowing compassion nor because of his unbelievable strength. The reason why he was in such a desperate situation and still maintained his mentality was just that he had expected this kind of thing to happen.

The church doesn't trust him, and he doesn't trust the church either. To put it bluntly, the relationship between them is not an ally at all, but an adversary who comes together because there is a common enemy. As soon as the battle with Li Lin comes to an end—win or lose—that's when the two sides begin to talk to each other.

This is not a dispute of ideas, it is a life-and-death struggle, which will inevitably erupt without the diversion of individual will or feelings, and will not stop until one side falls, both end to the end, and neither side can bear the cost of continuing the war.

Betrayed by the church and unusually devout soldiers, stabbed in the back. It was already in his imagination.

If there is anything that I didn't expect, only Li Lin would single-handedly promote the defection of the church and the army.

After stirring up strife, hide behind the scenes and control everything. This is indeed very much in line with Li Lin's usual style, but now that he is in the second form, it is a perfect opportunity to show his strength, why did he suddenly think of playing some witch hunting game? How could that guy who is always right suddenly drop his chain at such a critical juncture? What the hell does he want to do?!

"Is that okay?"

The encrypted brain quantum wave communication came, and the subtle breath was like a bitter smile.

"It's terrible to be distracted in the middle of a fight. ”

- How dare you say it!

Without the slightest falter, Roland's anger returned the favor.

- Actually using this method!!

The anger that had been barely suppressed erupted, and hatred, resentment, and resentment, which burned hotter than the flames, poured into the encrypted communication circuit.

- Despicable villain!

"You're not mistaken about anything. ”

Lack of emotional fluctuations in sound feedback.

"It's a life-and-death struggle, not a turn-based game, not a knight's joust, not a kid pretending to be a family drink. 'Completely defeating the opponent' is the only and absolute goal, and as for the means – who do you think really cares?"

War has never been a noble thing, and how can it be noble to do whatever it takes to win. Especially after entering the era of total warfare, in order to completely destroy the opponent's ability to continue the war, the belligerents have no scruples. To sum up in the words of a famous American Civil War general: We must remove and destroy all obstacles, kill every man, take every inch of land, and confiscate every property as long as we deem it necessary. In a word - ruthlessly destroy everything we see...... Then the general lived up to his maxim, and his legions were scorched everywhere they went.

Those who will be entangled in whether the belligerents are acting in accordance with the moral code, whether they violate the rules of war, and whether they are "humane" are basically bystanders who have nothing to do with themselves. It is precisely because they are in a safe place, knowing that they will not be affected by danger, that onlookers can speak out about the bloody hell and judge the blood-stained belligerents. Once they themselves are caught up in the whirlpool of struggle, they have no ease of commenting and discerning.

No one will question it, and no one will dare to question it.

Even if one or two dared to question it, in order not to be affected by the calamity hanging overhead, the people around these brave prophets would stop them at the first time, or draw a line.

- It's all because of you!!

"That's right, I forced them to betray, I made them stab them in the back. And then what?"

- You ......!!

"They can choose to fight alongside you until the last moment, even if they die a tragic death, they are still heroic warriors. But they didn't. In order to survive, they do not hesitate to shoot at the heroes who stand up for them, and even think about what to sell you for a good price. ”

There were more and more cross-fires from the ground, and whether they could reach it or not, soldiers, priests, and civilians poured into the air with all the weapons they could get their hands on.

Looking at that image from the air, one can't help but feel ironic, as if this is not this world, but a hell for sinners. Everyone fights for the spider silk hanging from the sky.

"Let's admit it. Heroes don't save the world, and those people don't deserve or expect salvation. In order for these beasts not to injure themselves and others, it is necessary to regulate and restrain them. Your obsession with possibilities and diversity is not the right answer. ”
