LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 266 Post-War Report
"In the final analysis...it's all because those bastards betrayed their trust and left midway..." the adjutant on the side gritted his teeth.
"If... if they hadn't left, then... our losses wouldn't have been so tragic! Then the North Gate... wouldn't have been lost!" He continued to add, and knocked on the table hard.
Obviously, the adjutant was gnashing his teeth and accusing Su Mingxu and the others.
The fall of the North Gate is indeed inseparable from them.
but……
"Adjutant Lin, that's not what you said." Li He looked away from the outside of the window and said every word.
"General Li! I know that man named Su is kind to you! But...but you really can't favor him!" The adjutant's tone suddenly became urgent.
"Tell it for yourself! So hundreds of fresh human lives were lost like that! Among them... there were even children under ten years old! This... this..."
As he spoke, the adjutant began to choke, as if he was too sad to continue talking.
Hearing this, Li He did not express his position directly, but instead began to approach the topic from other places.
"If you keep providing food to a wild dog, it may always be grateful to you and wag its tail at you. But if you suddenly stop giving him food one day, he may even attack you..."
After saying that, Li He sighed and continued.
"Animals don't think too much, and they can't fully understand the relationship between favors. But...but we are humans and we can't think in the same way as they do."
"Brother Su is indeed kind to me, and I want to repay him. But... public is public, private is private. I still distinguish clearly. He has no obligation to help us in the first place, and we have no right to criticize him. "
General Li sees things very clearly.
"It's a matter of friendship to help, but it's a duty not to help." This kind of thing is still very clear.
"But... but the people are originally obliged to assist the army in its affairs! And this has nothing to do with him... Who does he think we are fighting for!" The adjutant still held a deeply disgusted attitude towards Su Mingxu.
"Ha... do you believe this?" Li He asked with a wry smile.
"Now is the end of the world. Do you think those strong people are really willing to be bound by the previous social morals? Do you think there are still people who abide by these righteousnesses?"
When he said these words, Li He had a completely self-deprecating attitude, and his face looked much older.
"The situation now is different from before... The weak could previously arm themselves with hot firepower and become strong. But now... the strong will always be strong, and the weak will always be weak. The chasm between them is basically It cannot be compensated for by any external means.”
Li He himself is considered a superpower, and he is also a relatively rare "weapon attribute" superpower.
But when he compared with Su Mingxu, Li He completely pales in comparison.
From that moment on, Li He finally understood the fundamental difference between the weak and the strong.
This is why Li He agreed to the plan.
Without a strong person as the backbone, a force cannot take action at all.
This time "Tiger"'s performance did not disappoint Li He.
The fierce battle with four fourth-level monsters for several hours still didn't leave him with much pain. What was left was his inexhaustible strength and the desire to protect the people.
"General..." Looking at Li He's weathered face, the adjutant was moved and could not say anything at all.
"Okay, let's end this topic here. I believe Brother Su must have his own reasons for leaving. Now tell me about the situation of 'Tiger'."
Hearing this, the adjutant's expression became serious, and then he took out one of the many documents in his arms.
"'Tiger's' first battle was perfect, even beyond our expectations... Tiger's first battle destroyed a total of seventy-eight third-level monsters, two fourth-level monsters, and several second-level monsters..."
Hearing this, Li He's frown finally relaxed.
"That's great...all of our investment has not been in vain."
"Then I will continue to report." The adjutant said, and then continued to add.
"As for the "Book of Powers" obtained from the collaborators, it was used by Tiger as decided in the previous meeting. "
Hearing this, Li He's expression became serious again, and then he slowly asked.
"How is it? Over there at Tiger..."
"Please don't worry, General. Tiger has adapted perfectly to this item. In addition to the original "Beast Attribute" ability and "Fire Attribute" ability, Tiger has awakened the "Fire Attribute" ability. This is the first time we have confirmed a three-attribute superpower, and it is also...our final result. "
Speaking of this, the adjutant couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth because of pride.
As the topic progressed to this point, Li He asked what he cared about most.
"If the sixth wave of corpses strikes within twenty-four hours... can Tiger immediately join the battle again?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on the adjutant's face immediately disappeared, and his expression began to become embarrassed.
"Reporting to the general... is probably not possible."
Hearing this, the smile on Li He's face disappeared.
"You...what do you mean?"
The conversation started to get more serious from here.
"General Li... you should know that ultra-rapid growth is often accompanied by some risks. Since the plan was started not long ago, the time is very tight... so we took some risks."
To be honest, the crystal core must not be used in large quantities in a short period of time.
After all, that thing was picked from the monster, and some magical active substances still remain after leaving the body.
A trace amount of this substance is harmless to living organisms, and it will be quickly decomposed over time.
But... if a large amount is taken in a short period of time, some of the substance will be difficult to decompose.
Therefore, some of the substance is retained in the body of "Tiger".
Hearing this, Li He probably had a bad premonition, but he still confirmed it again.
"In other words... Tiger's current situation is not optimistic?"
"No... Rather than saying that Tiger is not optimistic, it is better to say that he is not optimistic for others."
The adjutant's expression became more serious, as if he wanted to hide something.
Hearing this, Li He immediately scolded.
"Report to me immediately if there is any situation! Don't regret it when a disaster occurs!"
"Actually... Tiger is infected with the characteristics of some monsters."
"Infected with the characteristics of some monsters? Could it be... bloodthirsty?" Li He was unable to understand.
Hu was originally a subordinate he valued very much, and he was willing to participate in this plan only after Li He's persuasion.
If anything went wrong, Li He would feel guilty...
