Confused...?

Xi'er looked at the words on the light screen and couldn't help but sigh.

It's okay to be confused.

In fact, she also encountered this incident in the last simulation.

Due to insufficient resources in the lower area, after she tried every means to unite the mechanical settlement in the last simulation, the wanderers also poured into Panyan Town, causing certain conflicts.

But at that time, because she had controlled the Earth Fire Organization for about half a year, she had trained a group of guards with strong combat effectiveness, and successfully suppressed the conflict without causing too many casualties.

But that time she still collapsed due to excessive pressure and got the entry "confused".

However, before she was completely confused, Ron came to the lower area and opened the passage between the upper and lower areas so that the people in the lower area could return to the ground.

The conflict was eliminated, her stress was relieved, and the confusion entries disappeared.

But this time... there was no way to imitate the last simulation.

This matter...is a bit troublesome.

Xi'er frowned slightly and watched a new note pop up on the light screen:

[The confusion and confusion in your heart makes you powerless, and you subconsciously look for the person you feel most capable to answer your questions. 】

[Under Ron’s guidance, you told him your confusion. 】

The text on the light screen faded away, and a new picture began to emerge:

In the hotel room, the dim light made the room a little decadent.

Xier and Ron sat across from each other at the table and said to Ron in confusion:

"What should I do in this situation?"

Ron looked at Xie'er's melancholy expression, stood up suddenly, and gently picked off a "butterfly" that was fluttering next to Xie'er.

He suddenly raised the corner of his mouth as he watched the wonderful phantom condensed from imaginary numbers fluttering in his hands and flying into the sky with illusory trails.

He looked at Xi'er and smiled, then suddenly asked her without any clue:

"Xier, why can butterflies fly?"

Xi'er was startled and didn't understand why Ron didn't answer him directly, but suddenly changed the subject.

But she thought for a moment and answered seriously:

"Why do they fly...because they want to fly into the sky?"

"But it's impossible."

Ron just smiled and shook his head, watching the butterfly fly to the darkness of the room, turning into illusory bubbles and disappearing.

"This is just the wishful thinking of romantics. We all long to leave the cramped underground, see the clear blue sky again, and walk in the Eden flowing with sugar and honey... But this is not a wish. You can do it if you want.”

Xi'er was a little confused after hearing this, and said confusedly: "Then...what do you think?"

The smile on Ron's face faded, and seriousness and coldness climbed onto his cheeks:

"Because they [must] fly into the sky."

"When the antimatter army burns Yalilo-VI, and the final star core descends into a cold wave, only free butterflies can escape from the destined demise."

"We are not the birds that save the world. No descendants can surpass us and fly to a higher place than us."

"Before the wave of destruction, we are just the last remaining weak insects."

"Birds live like birds, and butterflies naturally live like butterflies -"

"We must break the [cocoon] that traps us and vibrate our gorgeous [wings]... As the last fireworks of civilization, even if they fly into the sky and explode, they should still be brilliant!"

As Ron said, he suddenly took the table knife in his hand and stabbed it hard on the table, hitting the wood three times.

"Xie'er, we can't be so indecisive."

His words were as cold as the cold wind on the distant ice field, which made Xi'er tremble:

"They are like [cocoons] that trap us, they are heavy objects hanging on our wings..."

"Only by getting rid of these burdens can we fly higher and further and escape the end of the planet being completely destroyed!"

But Xi'er hesitated for a moment: "But... is this really good?"

"I don't want to treat everyone in the lower class so harshly... In fact, I was also a homeless person when I was a child. I understand why those homeless people do what they do."

"Actually, everyone is just like this because they can't live anymore. Everyone is not wrong. There should be a softer way to deal with it..."

But Ron just shook his head and interrupted Xier's words:

"What they did was not wrong, but what is good means it is right?"

"Saving the world is not about treating guests to a meal, it is about shedding blood!"

"I know you understand them, and you care about all the people in the lower district... You are very kind, Xi'er."

"But just like [wanting] cannot fly into the sky, [kindness] cannot save Beloberg."

"Leaders also have their own way of living."

"Pick up your scythe, Seele."

Ron picked up the table knife from the table, as if to demonstrate to Seele:

"This is the last stand for our entire civilization."

"It's time for blood on our knives..."

Chapter 29—Bronya is on the phone (4k)

[Ron's speech had a great impact on you. 】

[Just like a butterfly will always break out of its cocoon, a child will always grow up. Under Ron's guidance, you have successfully completed a "transformation". 】

[Out of your respect and trust for Ron, you fully accepted his words. 】

["A weak civilization cannot survive the night. In order to usher in the dawn, everything can become a bargaining chip... everything." There is a faint voice echoing in your heart. 】

【You have a new understanding of "salvation". 】

[You have obtained the entry: Cold-blooded Revolutionary (Gold)]

[Cold-blooded Revolutionary: The weight of salvation is a burden that the entire civilization cannot bear. Any unpeaceful noise may lead to destruction.You completely put aside the weakness in your heart and take steps on the path of a cold-blooded ruler. 】

[Next, your pressure value will not increase, your government affairs processing speed will be accelerated by 50%, your decree execution will be increased by 100%, and the stability of the regions within your governance will be increased by 50%.When your people are dissatisfied with you, their dissatisfaction value increases by an additional 50%. 】

[Because the entry "Cold-Blooded Revolutionary" fits your destiny path, under the guidance of Cold-blooded Will, you followed the trajectory of [Patrol] Lan and took a solid step on your destiny path. 】

The entry on the light screen flashes with golden light, and its intensity can be seen just by looking at the literal meaning.

Just such an entry almost doubled Xi'er's ability and greatly changed her future.

But when Xi'er looked at this entry, she always felt as if a cold wind was blowing around her, making her feel slightly chilly.

Now she still can't accept the memory of this simulation. In fact, she can't actually feel Ron's speech in the simulation...

But just by looking at the words and pictures, she could already vaguely feel that the responsibility on her shoulders had become heavier——

This is the weight of [salvation].

Xi'er has already experienced the conflict between the miners and the homeless in Panyan Town twice in the simulation, and each time her choice was only to temporarily prevent the conflict.

She always believed that there would be a solution that had the best of both worlds. She believed that there was always a way to eliminate the barriers between miners and homeless people and find the best way to deal with it...

But now it seems that she was totally wrong.

Perhaps, there really is a way to deal with this, but it is definitely not something she can find.

Time is the biggest cost. The threat of the star core and the anti-matter army is imminent. If you don't use all your strength, you will only die in disaster.

If thousands of years of civilization were energized, how much would it weigh?

Xi'er doesn't know clearly, but in front of [Destruction], she must be as light as a feather.

As a leader, any ideas she had before were naive.

Although Ron's idea was very cold, Xi'er had to admit that it was mature enough.

Just like Ron said, leaders have their own way of living... Kindness cannot save the lower class.

Can kindness bring new clothes to cover the homeless, food to the miners... and a sky that the children have never seen before?

unable.

It is precisely because pure kindness cannot do that that she has to give up her innocence.

This is not just for herself, but for the whole world.

Grandma... No, Nata once said - "What is more important than the miracle itself is to protect people's expectations for it."

She cannot let the expectations of people who are looking forward to a miracle of salvation turn into an illusion. She must protect this hope——

Even if it means getting blood on her hands, she will become a cold-blooded ruler who is despised by people.

Xi'er thought so and clicked on the light screen in front of her.

The entry reward on the light screen faded away, and new text appeared:

[After your successful transformation, you started drastic reforms in the lower district. 】

[You stipulated the lifestyle of the wanderers and miners, strictly controlled the supplies obtained from the upper areas, and started to use a rationing system. 】

[Relying on monopoly materials, you control the market in the lower class areas. 】

[After you made such reforms, the lower-class areas suddenly became filled with complaints and public resentment, and many people had great ill will towards you. 】

[But you have known for a long time that these people are the biggest cancer in the lower-class areas. They are the wealthy businessmen who still maintain the living standards of the upper-class gentlemen in the lower-class areas where life is so difficult now. 】

[They control the lifeblood of many miners in the lower area, and have weapons that are no weaker than Earth Fire. 】

[Because Shivaro needs to lead the automatic robot defense front to resist the Rift on the front line and prevent the Rift monsters from rushing into the city. You cannot rely on the force of the automatic robots to kill all these wealthy businessmen. 】

[In order to remove these cancers, under the guidance of Ron, you made a detailed plan...]

[Next, all you have to do is wait. 】

The text on the light screen faded, and new text appeared:

[Your reforms have had a great impact on the wealthy businessmen. They conspired to overthrow the leadership of Dihuo and kill you, a stupid young man who dared to touch their interests. 】

[Three months later, you suffered the first assassination. 】

[The assassin was a black boxer who suffered extremely severe erosion from the world rift, but became as ferocious as a world rift monster. 】

[It’s a pity that ordinary world-splitting monsters are no threat to you. You successfully solved this assassin. 】

[But the assassination came like a violent storm. 】

[After being assassinated for the first time, you will be assassinated every day.Sometimes it is a black boxer who has been eroded by the rift, sometimes it is a miner who is seriously ill, sometimes it is a ragged wanderer... These desperate people become the first main force to assassinate you. 】

[Each assassination will bring a significant increase in your pressure value, but because of the entry "Cold-Blooded Revolutionary", your pressure value is fixed. 】

The text on the light screen faded away, and a new picture emerged on it:

Xi'er was standing at the entrance of the large mining area, in front of a group of miners and homeless people who participated in this rally and listened to Xi'er's speech.

She calmly analyzed to everyone what should be done in the future of the lower district:

"For the future of the Lower District, we should..."

But Xier's words were interrupted by a vicious curse.

"The underground doesn't need a leader like you, go to hell!"

The ragged homeless man rushed out crazily with a sharpened wooden stick and stabbed Xi'er who was giving a speech on "poverty alleviation and rationing".

But as if Xier was used to it, she took out the sickle without hesitation and chopped off the wanderer's head with one blow.

Blood splashed out, and although Xi'er had already dodged it very quickly, warm blood still splashed onto Xi'er's cheek, flowing along a soft arc to her chin and dripping.

"Kill, kill someone! Kill someone!"

The residents of Panyan Town who came to listen to Xi'er's speech immediately dispersed, but after a while, many people left and returned——

But when they came back, they had picked up weapons in their hands and had ruthlessness on their faces.

Seeing these assassins who were aggressive towards her, Xier calmly wiped the blood from her face.
