1778 Unwavering Conviction

Whether you believe it or not, Ive been ready from beginning to end to fulfill the promise I made decades ago. For the Blood Alliance, for the continuation of Dragon City civilization, I will sacrifice everything, including my life, my reputation, and the companies under my name, the gray-haired office worker said casually.

I have never regarded you as a chess piece. You are a like-minded partner and also my successor.

After all, Im old, and Ive suffered such a heavy blow. The Blood Alliance is destined to lurk in the darkness for another ten years or even longer. Even if it makes a comeback one day, I wont be able to see it.

No matter what, I have to find a qualified successor for the cause that Ive fought for over the decades, and that successor is you. It can only be you, Yun Feidian.

!!

The gray-haired office worker sounded indescribably tired, like an old man who was about to die.

Nevertheless, his sincere att.i.tude did not dispel Yun Feidians wariness.

I really want to believe you.

However, I dont understand. Things are chaotic out there, and we need you to take charge of the situation. Why did you follow me here alone instead of partic.i.p.ating in the feast of dividing Thundercloud Technology? Yun Feidian said coldly.

The gray-haired office worker looked over Yun Feidians shoulder and at the military backpack behind him.

Yun Feidian laughed as expected and tightened the straps of the military backpack in front of his chest.

If youre truly not treating me as a chess piece but a partner or even a successor as you said, you dont have to worry about this at all.

Im not an idiot, Yun Feidian said. I wont threaten you with the sc.r.a.ps of the super crystal bomb unless I have no other choice.

As long as you keep in mind the covenant between us and the Blood Alliances mission, is it necessary for me to drag you down with this evidence?

Ultimately, a high and mighty Deity Realm warrior, the helmsman of a super company, and a highly respected senior is much more useful to our cause and my safety than a disgraced old dog thats hated by everyone, isnt it?

Ive fought for my oath and mission all my life. I wont betray my lifes work when Im about to die, the gray-haired office worker said.

Its meaningless to leave such evidence behind. It will only lead to the most thorough failure and destruction if someone catches us.

Thats not necessarily true. If theres any lesson that Ive learned from the battles and games in the past decades, its that I shouldnt trust any human being easily, including myself.

Yun Feidian said, Compared to monsters, human beings are ever-changing intelligent creatures who are too mysterious. Most of the time, we dont even know ourselves 100%, especially when were faced with a life-and-death decision. We can change into a completely different person at any moment.

Perhaps, in the past decades, you were indeed loyal to your oath and your mission, and you sacrificed everything for the Blood Alliance.

But who can guarantee that you wont completely lose confidence in the Blood Alliance because of this failure? You might even believe what Meng Chao said.

After all, fate seems to favor Meng Chao, the divine warrior who descended from the sky and turned the tide. Theres hope that he can lead humanity to the final victory and create a new tomorrow for Dragon Citys civilization.

When you saw the sunrise and Meng Chaos limitless potential, you felt like youve been walking down the wrong path for most of your life. You were determined to come to a sudden realization and change for the better. In fact, you even had a strong desire to atone for your sins. Whats so strange about that?

At the end of the day, you and the interest groups behind you didnt suffer many losses in the blow. It isnt too late to turn back now!

The three pieces of super crystal bomb sc.r.a.ps that I took at such a great risk are nothing more than insurance to help you strengthen your will and carry out your beliefs. Thats all!

The gray-haired office worker sighed softly.

You dont understand. No matter how many times I fail, no matter how awe-inspiring Meng Chao is when he descends before us, I wont believe in his tricks.

His tone was calm, but it contained a faint hint of sorrow. Meng Chao and those people who believe that superhumans are the blades of human civilization, and the blood of the strong should flow for the weak can neither bring victory to Dragon City, nor create a tomorrow for Dragon City. Only the Blood Alliance has hope, even if its a one in a billion chance.

I will fight to the end for this one-in-a-billion chance of hope.

Thats exactly why I cant allow you to leave with the sc.r.a.ps of the super crystal bomb, which will be a threat in the future!

Before he even finished his words, an invisible hand seemed to lift the military backpack on Yun Feidians back up high.

Pa pa!

The extremely tough back strap made of Armored Rhinoceros skin was instantly torn apart, but Yun Feidian did not even blink.

What looked like several dozen cold rays of light shot out of his fingertips and tightly wrapped around the backpack, which was floating in the air.

They were strands of extremely strong, hair-thin nano-metal wire.

Each strand was less than 0.5 mm in diameter, but it could bear a few tons or maybe even several dozen tons of weight.

One end of the nano metal wires was wrapped around Yun Feidians arm. His arm guard was made of special monster leather and inlaid with metal materials to protect his arm from being cut.

Meanwhile, the other end had already pierced through the military backpack and wrapped the super crystal bombs three shards repeatedly, making sure that the key evidence would not leave his side.

Shua shua shua shua!

As the nanometal wires were stretched taut, the military backpack was immediately cut into pieces. The pieces were blown away by the spirit energy ripples that were surging like tides and scattered around them.

The sc.r.a.ps of the super crystal bombs were now floating between the two individuals. When they got slightly closer to Yun Feidian, they began to spin like tops under the extreme pulling force from both sides.

The gray-haired office worker did not expect Yun Feidian to be so cautious.

He narrowed his eyes, and his face darkened.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! With his foot as the center, enormous cracks appeared and spread in all directions.

As the cracks traveled into the darkness around the cave, the stalact.i.tes, rocks, and walls that were dormant in the shadows all rumbled. It was as if countless monsters had awakened from the rock stratum that were as hard as iron, and they were breathing and roaring with soul-stirring voices.

When the roars gathered, it sounded more like the entire natural cave had come to life and turned into the b.l.o.o.d.y mouth of an enormous prehistoric beast!
