Chapter 937 - 937 The Vicious Means
937 The Vicious Means
“Do they really dare to do this?”
Li Xiang subconsciously clenched his fists as killing intent surged in his heart.
“General of the Dawn Dynasty, listen up. Retreat immediately and leave this region. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless.”
The two-headed Ogre leader had appeared in the Stone Valley at some point. Its tall body appeared abnormally sinister and terrifying under the bonfire. The voice that came out of its mouth was like thunder, emitting thick malice.
“Do you see these humans? These are your fellow Human race beings. There are children, old people, pregnant women, and babies. There are only 10,000 here. If you take another step forward, some of them will die. On the contrary, as long as the Kingdom of Dawn gives up on expansion, these people can live. And they’ll live a good life. We will give them food, a region to live in, and even protect them from the invasion of fierce beasts. The only condition is that you all retreat. Don’t go near this region.”
“If you retreat, these people can live, and they can live very well. If you advance, they will all die. Not only them, but many more people will die because of your actions. Choose carefully. I’ll give you time to consider. However, if you still don’t retreat after 15 minutes, don’t blame us for being ruthless and starting to kill.”
The two-headed Ogre’s voice was very clear. It echoed in the night sky and spread.
“What?”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in Honeysuckle City.
Not only that, but the soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Army Group were also furious. They looked at the Human race refugees kneeling in front of them and felt indescribable emotions.
Continue to move forward?
Even if death was right in front of them, they would not waver. However, looking at the refugees in front of them, no one dared to take another step forward no matter how determined they were. It was as if there was a hell that was even more terrifying than an extremely dangerous place and it could make people completely consigned to eternal damnation.
No one could ignore these innocent civilians dying in front of them.
This kind of responsibility was too great, and no one could bear it.
“They’re so ruthless and vicious. They used pregnant women and children as hostages. This is simply forcing us into a dilemma.”
Zhou Qing sucked in a breath of cold air on the spot. He had never thought that the foreign races would use such a method. His entire body was trembling.
With his intelligence, he had already guessed that if this incident was not handled well, it would cause immeasurable losses to the Dawn. It might even cause endless trouble.
“Who is so vicious? Could it be that my bosom friend has appeared and is shouting for me to continue singing? Don’t worry, I’m here.”
At this moment, an excited shout was heard. A black-light streaked across the sky. It appeared in the area where the two sides were confronting each other. Who else could it be but the Black Emperor?
“Black dog! Black Emperor! It’s that vicious dog. Quick, chase this vicious dog away immediately! Otherwise, I’ll immediately give the order to start killing.”
The two-headed Ogre’s face darkened when it saw Dark Emperor.
“Chase it away immediately! I don’t want to see it!”
The fear of the Black Emperor was already ingrained in its bones.
Now, when it saw the Black Emperor appear, it was immediately shocked.
Even if they had to face extreme danger, they would not want to face the scourge of the Black Emperor. This vicious dog was even more terrifying than hell.
“Bast*rd! I’m so handsome yet you want me to leave now. This is simply preposterous. Looks like you haven’t been influenced by my singing. You should continue listening to my beautiful voice. You have to listen from day to night. I intend to follow you around the clock. I don’t believe that I can’t influence you!”
When Black Emperor heard this, its face turned green. This was the first time it had encountered someone who wanted to chase it away so directly.
It felt that this wasn’t even its fan, nor was it a soulmate. How could this be? It had to sing every day to this kind of person. It had to sing non-stop. It had to use all its strength to show off its singing voice and influence it.
Otherwise, how could it display its means?
Its identity as an artist and singer was not for nothing.
“Come back!”
However, just as it was about to show off its singing voice, a voice sounded in its ear. This sentence caused Black Emperor to reveal a sullen expression. It had no choice but to snort coldly, jump back into Honeysuckle City, and stand on the city wall.
Black Emperor’s leaving caused the entire atmosphere to become heavy again.
“General, what should we do? Should we advance or retreat?”
The deputy general took a deep breath and asked Zhao Yun.
“Yeah, these are all pregnant women and children. The foreign races are simply inhumane. They are too ruthless. This is more vicious than any conspiracy.” The other deputy general was furious.
This was simply forcing them into a dilemma.
“What a vicious means!”
Zhou Qing took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “They are using pregnant women, children, and elderly humans as hostages. Once we advance, we will force the foreign races to kill. Although they would be the ones who kill, we would be the ones who caused this. It’s like the foreign races are the butcher’s knife, and we are the butchers holding the knife. If they are killed by foreign races, it would be no different from us killing them. The sin of slaughtering Human civilians, pregnant women, and children will fall on us. We will be condemned and cursed by thousands of people. The Dawn will also be criticized by countless civilians, and the people’s morale will be unstable.”
“If we retreat, we will also face terrifying trouble. This time, the foreign races use Human civilians as hostages to force us to retreat. This news will spread to the surrounding areas. The other tribes will also use Human civilians as hostages to stop the Dawn from expanding in the future. If that happens, the Kingdom of Dawn will be suppressed by the foreign races and we can’t advance. This is an invisible shackle. At that time, the surroundings would become a cage. An unbreakable cage was a devastating possibility for the Dawn.”
A dynasty that could not expand its territory and empire might end up being destroyed. That would be a devastating blow to the future of the Dawn.
