Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 1055 - 1057: Coldness

But...

"The decision has to be made and there's not much time left. Do you want to continue sacrificing countless soldiers on the frontline just because you don't want to use the nuclear weapon?"

"The three returnees can't move away from their location... If nuclear weapon is to be used, they might end up dead."

"Isn't it good?"

"What?"

"These returnees are fixed around a certain radius from the passage, which meant that from the very beginning, their existence is solely for the sake of the grand magic beasts' tide. Since that's the case, there's no qualms for us to use them too," the official said with a smirk.

The military representative was frowning when he heard such words.

Even though they all knew that these officials were a bunch of b*stards who only cared for their own lives, seeing the scene in person like this still made him sick.

There were many people who sacrificed themselves for the sake of the Green Planet in overall, but these officials only cared about making their lives better and all.

It seemed as if they would never stop unless they could get the greatest advantage.

How disgusting.

Unfortunately, it was not possible for them to refute so blatantly.

Because they were all the beneficiary of these people's sacrifices.

Whether they wanted to or not, it was obvious that they were the one who took advantage in the end.

"The returnees are all still human being. I don't think it's right to do this without informing them beforehand. Perhaps there's a way to make sure that they would not be affected by the nuclear weapon that much."

"Warn them? Would those people even listen?" The man had a disgusted expression when he thought about the way these returnees looked down on them.

The relationship between the officials on Continent Y with the returnees were simply the worst with neither side were willing to back down and accepted the other side.

It seemed that if they were to appear on the same location was more than enough to cause a fight.

Neither side was wiling to back down.

"Even if they didn't listen, at least the gesture would make us looks good." Another official thought from another angle.

"No one is watching and you're still thinking about your reputation. Do you think that those people will care about what we're actually doing when we're here?"

"The three returnees are so arrogant. They deserved to be confined around the passage and fight for all of us," another official said with a shrug. "It would be better if they could deal with the magic beasts and then perished together."

The military representative closed his eyes.

Sometimes, he really couldn't understand why it had to be these rotten people who survived in the end.

The earthquake that happened on the Green Planet three years ago had eliminated many people. Coupled with the short period of chaos that followed afterwards, there were many people who had lost their lives.

Among them, there were many good people who could have made the Green Planet even better.

Unfortunately...

That period of time simply eliminated many people who were kind and truly willing to help other people, leaving the selfish people who cared for their own benefits more than anything.

It was frustrating.

To be one of the few people who were willing to speak up the truth and fight for them, yet no one was wiling to listen.

The Green Planet had changed.

And Continent Y was among the few continents that were declining step by step.

He was absolutely sure that even without these returnee's rebellions that caused the other three continents to be unwilling to cooperate much with them, Continent Y will slowly but surely fell.

At least, that was what he thought.

Because these people were simply people who cared for nothing but their own benefits.

Why are they the one who have to survive in the end?

He couldn't understand.

"Nevertheless, even if we have to use the nuclear weapon, we still have to inform the returnee about this matter and perhaps, they might be able to avoid getting implicated. There would be more and more magic beasts pouring out of the passage and without these returnees, it's impossible for Continent Y to survive."

"What are you tailing about? You're speaking as if the soldiers are not enough to deal with the magic beasts..."

Bam!

"Isn't it the truth? If the soldiers can be more powerful and if we could exchange for more things from other continents, the situation wouldn't have been this bad." The other representative from the military was also at his wits end.

Weapon, potion, and magic scrolls.

These three things were the auxiliary tools that ordinary people or people with lower ranks would be able to use.

The other three continents have exchanged the resources with each other for an entire year.

They were more prepared.

It was not like Continent Y couldn't get their hands on these things, but their amount was limited.

What they could provide for other continents were not valued that much.

It was also because of this that they were struggling.

The resources that they have accumulated with difficulties in the past year were used very quickly in just two months.

Even if they were still busy producing more bullets, bombs, and so on, it was uncertain how long they would be able to hold on.

Letting these powerful magic beasts loose on Continent Y would only destroy this continent further.

The previous cracks' incident had already cost them a lot.

They couldn't afford to cause more bases to be destroyed by these magic beasts.

"We can't exchange it anymore. The other continents are also struggling to deal with the magic beasts coming out of the passage. Rather than thinking about getting more resources, it's better to think about how you're going to preserve our combat strength."

"Those selfish returnees don't deserve it!"

"But we still need them and..."
