Chapter 221 Saving What Can Be Saved
When manpower is exhausted...

Yang Yun closed his eyes lightly. What No. 10032 said was such a simple truth. The fourth-order powerhouses are powerful, and the natural weapons of civilization are wonderful, but if the scope is expanded to the multiverse level, it will It's nothing more.No one can save everyone, not No. 10032, not Xin Bi'an, not even Daoist Sanqing, or even Ren Huang himself...

"Being able to save everyone is the most perfect ideal state, a scene that only appears in fairy tales and novels, but the reality is cruel."

No. 10032 recounted this truth plainly, as if talking about what to eat tonight: "Most of the time, we have to make a choice. Do we choose to abandon the lives of five people to save the lives of ten people? Or Choose to save the life of a scientist over the life of a hooligan?"

"Should I choose to spend an hour to rescue one person, or choose to spend two hours to rescue ten people?"

Xin Bi'an didn't speak, but her right hand had unknowingly clenched into a fist, and five bloodstains were pinched on her beautiful palm by nails, while No. 10032 glanced at it and continued: "Xin Bi'an, this is not the same as ours. Any mission that has been carried out before is different. In the previous mission, we may only need to obliterate the weirdness and eliminate the ghosts. It's just killing those 'inhuman beings'."

"With mental preparation, you can take the lives of ten people without changing your face, you can take the lives of 100 people, you can take the lives of 1000 people. But if you increase this number to hundreds of millions, Ascending to planets and planes as the unit, unless you are a person like me who is born lacking in emotion, then you will feel hesitant and difficult to make a decision, which is actually a very normal thing."

"Kindness is not a mistake."

"Number 10032, you..."

Xin Bi'an thought that the words of No. 10032 had turned a corner, but before the joy appeared on her face, No. 10032 ruthlessly shattered her hope: "...but it's the weak."

——I understand that you are very strong. You have the strength of a junior demon king and a Jindan-level cultivator, and you still practice the Shangqing Zhuxian Jue, which is famous for actual combat.Otherwise, he would not be sent to serve as the head of the fourth regiment.

——It’s just that you are not strong enough, because the demon king is not invincible at the junior level, at least you are still powerless against Ashiya Doman, and it is impossible to save everyone in this plane, if you can really do it like this If there is any matter, then at least one of the two deputy army commanders must come in person.

These are the words that No. 10032 has not yet said, but she understands that Xin Bi'an should also understand these principles: "Xin Bi'an, since you are in this position, you must take corresponding responsibilities and make corresponding decisions, just like trams There are only two roads you can choose for the person holding the orbital joystick in the puzzle."

"You can't stop the train, you can't destroy the track, you can't let the tram do a cool drift and stop at a critical moment; you can't save the victim who is tied to the track in advance at the critical moment. There are only two things you can do. Choose one, let the tram run over five people, or run over one person's body."

"choose……"

Sim Bi'an repeated these two words, she had never felt that these two simple words were so heavy: "But even so, we are here to save them, not to be a destroyer and executioner of the plane... ..."

"Naively, every time we save the world is a brand new chess game, and sacrifice is inevitable. If we want to win the chess game to the end, we must be ruthless, treat everything equally, and use all the power we have , Whether it’s people, things, or even you and me, all are placed on the chessboard.”

"But all of this is not a chess game!" Xin Bi'an retorted fiercely: "And life is definitely not a chess piece to be manipulated by others!"

"It's a chess piece."

No. 10032 refuted Xin Bi'an's words, she said: "Life is never equal... the life of a scientist is more valuable than the life of a hooligan, the lives of ten people are more valuable than the lives of five, our fourth group The lives of our soldiers are more valuable than the lives of the people of this plane, and the lives of the two of us are more valuable than the lives of anyone in the fourth regiment."

"As the chief and deputy head of the fourth regiment, almost everyone's life is in our hands, and since we are in this position, we should become even more ruthless."

"Compassion does not command soldiers, that's how it is."

Xin Bi'an looked at No. 10032 in disbelief, this woman who has been coordinating most of the affairs of the Fourth Regiment as the deputy head and staff for a long time, but the side she revealed at this moment made her so strange.Although I also felt that the layout of No. 10032 was a bit unreasonable, but...

Suddenly, a red light flashed on the virtual screen in front of No. 10032, and then the data representing the concentration of crimes began to rise crazily, and the black mist that originally permeated the Japanese island country also began to spread rapidly to the surroundings.

"We don't have much time left."

Seeing the data fluctuate wildly, No. 10032 directly said: "Michimitsu Ashiya has accelerated his speed and started to spread his sins to other areas. The pollution of the River of Life is gradually expanding."

"According to calculations, the sins will pervade the entire planet in three hours, and we cannot stop it with our current manpower... Make your decision, your choice."

No. 10032 looked at Xin Bi'an who stood there silently, but Yang Yun, who was also standing behind him, had a premonition. At the same time, his gaze was looking at more than [-] years later, accepting this memory of myself.

——Yeah, although I know the ending of Xin Bi'an and the decision she will make from 10032-2 and Liuli, but how did she think at that time?
——The leader of the fourth regiment of the Human Emperor's Tenth Legion, a demon king-level soul cultivator, a golden core-level comprehension practitioner, a successor to the sky, Xin Bi'an... If it was her, what kind of words would she say?
Yang Yun closed his eyes gently, Xin Bi'an's memory flashed before his eyes, his emotions resonated, and the fire in his heart was burning, because of this difficult choice and his powerlessness over the status quo.

The turbulent emotions broke the dam, and the obstacles once thought were no longer obstacles.

Breakthrough from the future so simple.

Is it a matter of course, or is it accumulated over time?Yang Yun didn't know, and he didn't need to know. The only thing he knew was his third-order gene lock, which was quietly unlocked at this moment.
——If I am Sim Bian, if I am Sim Bian, if I am Sim Bian!
Thinking is accelerating, simulating, and generating.And Yang Yun, at this moment, seemed to coincide with Xin Bi'an's figure, and opened his mouth to pick up the words of No. 10032: "Those ordinary people who obviously did nothing but are going to be destroyed, what did they do wrong?"

"They did nothing wrong."

After asking and answering, Yang Yun continued: "Obviously it was because of Ashiya Doman that they became innocent victims, but why should we regard them as evil and destroy everything together?"

"There is no such thing in the world..."

Yang Yun lowered his head and said word by word: "I don't understand those principles, but I also know that if I choose to abandon them and these innocent people at this time, then there will really be no one Come to save them. In the face of danger, there is only responsibility. Before that, someone must stand up and fight, and then die."

"So, I'm going to save them!"

"That's your answer? Even if the choice might cost you, and all of us?"

After crossing the curtain of time, No. 10032 calmly looked at Yang Yun - this is not surprising, since Xin Bi'an can survive in the form of spiritual light, as Chu Xuan's half-sibling, No. 10032, who has arranged the next thing in advance, naturally has corresponding means.

"No, this is Simbian's answer."

But to No. 10032's surprise, Yang Yun shook his head: "I'm not a general commanding thousands of people, and I only had a brief moment with Sim Bi'an just now, so I can only activate the third-order genetic lock to simulate part of her thoughts." , and then deduce the process from the conclusion.”

"It's just that, even if the experience is different, people can still understand each other through emotions and hearts. Because human feelings, those beautiful things, are always connected."

"So, what's your answer?" No. 10032 couldn't hear the emotion in his tone, but asked calmly.

"I won't say more if it's superfluous, because if it were you, you would definitely leave a corresponding backhand in the core control room of Rungomigniad. When Liuli arrives in this space, you will know the corresponding Just like you stand in front of me now and choose to show kindness to me.”

"Then, what I want to answer you is... I may not be able to save everyone, but I can save what I can, and I will do what I can."

Yang Yun raised his eyes, met No. 10032's eyes calmly, and said the last sentence.

"That's why I came here."
