Lord Era: I, The Strongest Lord Of The Abyss!
#119 - Chapter 119 Ten Days and the Cruel Truth
Watching the warriors on the battlefield constantly losing their lives, Li Sinuo was silent.
The current her had long lost the naivety she had when she first entered the Lord Era, and the war stories told to her by the elders of the Li family had completely lost their romantic color.
Having just retreated from the front line, she glanced at the Heavenly Dao System.
The countdown to the plane's fall had reached ten days.
Ten days....
Only ten days left.
No, to be precise.
There are still a full ten days!
"God."
Li Sinuo closed her eyes, painfully listening to the incessant war roars around her.
She turned around and said to Su Yingxue.
"Xiaoxue, do we really have to continue like this?"
"What I mean is, do we really have to fight for this so-called first place!"
Su Yingxue, dressed in a pure white priest's robe, looked at her in surprise upon hearing this.
"Fight for first place? Of course."
"You know, our current strategy has actually succeeded, and this is thanks to you."
"It was your unintentional actions that gave me the idea of being trapped in one side."
"According to my calculations, as long as we hold on for about two more days."
"Then Wu Wei's offensive threshold will reach the point where he cannot completely besiege us!"
"Because while we are bleeding, Wu Wei's side is also bleeding, and compared to us who are well prepared, Wu Wei's side is bleeding even faster.."
"And by that time, we will have a full eight days left."
"In these eight days, we have a full opportunity to take hero units as the core, directly break through Wu Wei's encirclement, directly take the era buildings he built, and then pull the balance of war back to our favor again!"
Su Yingxue executed this crazy new plan after being inspired by Li Sinuo.
"Then what is our probability of winning?"
"Thirty percent, there is a full thirty percent!"
"And, the longer we persist, the higher our chances of winning!"
"You know, according to my previous simulations, the probability of me confronting Wu Wei head-on is only about 10%."
"So, being able to do this is actually thanks to you!"
Li Sinuo was stunned after hearing this number.
"But... is it really worth sacrificing so many lives for this 30% victory?"
"Take a good look at these warriors, they all went to the battlefield because of your promise."
"But you have never told them the truth about the war. In their minds, they don't know that they only have a 30% chance of winning."
"They don't know that the real reason why the war hasn't ended yet is just because you and Wu Wei want to fight for a first place that doesn't make much sense."
"Don't you think this is too cruel for them!"
"Xiaoxue, how about..."
"Let's give up fighting for this meaningless first place and take the second place that firmly belongs to us!"
"This 30% probability is not worth such a sacrifice at all!"
"Too many people have died because of your and Wu Wei's fight."
"Don't you think that in some ways, you are already the same monster as Wu Wei?"
Su Yingxue stopped here.
She didn't expect that her original idea of benevolent governance would have such a deep impact on Li Sinuo.
She did mention benevolent governance, but that was just for faith, in order to better control her territory.
Su Yingxue really didn't mind letting her people live better, but that was on the premise of not affecting her goals!
"No."
"I won't stop."
Su Yingxue suddenly smiled strangely.
Her smile was still so perfect.
But for some reason, Li Sinuo felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar when she saw her smile at this time.
Because she saw the coldness hidden behind Su Yingxue's smile....
"Because, I just want to win."
"Even if it's just once!"
"In the Lord Era, wars are happening every moment."
"Battles that are more cruel than our war are a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times more than you imagine!"
"Li Sinuo, do you know why I don't care about the casualties of these people?"
"Because they are our people, my children."
"I am the lord, the real subject."
"Fighting for us and dying for us is their duty!"
"The promise I gave them has always been a stable life, not anything else."
"But a stable life comes at a price."
"And this is the price they have to pay!"
"There are all kinds of cruel things in the Lord Era, why do you care about this one?"
"Don't forget one thing."
Su Yingxue looked into Li Sinuo's eyes and smiled as she spoke her last words.
"After we leave this Lord's Trial, we, who each have family forces, can obtain many times, or even dozens of times, more soldiers and territories from our respective families than we do now."
"Whether it is our Su family or your Li family, we can easily do this."
"This trial is just an assessment of strength and mentality for us, an opportunity."
"Although the rewards of the Lord's Trial are very tempting, for large families, they are often not necessities, but rewards to help new lords grow faster."
"So, Li Sinuo, why are you so concerned about..."
"Such insignificant sacrifices?"
Looking at the warriors dying like grass on the city wall, Li Sinuo only felt as if her soul had been struck hard.
Yes.
Su Yingxue was right.
The Lord Era has been running as the Heavenly Dao for thousands of years.
In these thousands of years, countless wars have made it impossible to calculate the number of dead creatures with conventional numbers.
The war between herself and Wu Wei is actually just a joke in the eyes of countless great lords.
Because the real lords are already used to this.
Their struggles with each other are often measured in terms of the gains and losses of entire continents and entire planes.
And why should she worry about these people who are even inferior to ants?
....
The cruel truth of the Lord Era was finally revealed before her eyes.
