Chapter 197 I’m here to surrender!
In the small auditorium, many of the Blood Ship personnel participating in the rally frowned.
They have lost count of how many times they have participated in such emergency rallies. They only know that they have become more frequent recently because the external situation has become increasingly severe.
Under the joint suppression of several wizard apprentice organizations headed by Golden Lionheart, the current situation of the blood ship is in danger, and no one knows how long it can last.
People were panicking, and almost all the people attending the rally had arrived. The "Big Three" of the Blood Ship organization - Jimmy, Aya Emily, and Lilith also showed up. Then Jimmy announced that the rally had officially begun.
Clearing his throat, Jimmy spoke with a serious expression: "We are gathering again today. Everyone should know what happened. Of course, it is because of those hateful guys in the Golden Lion Heart. Everyone knows that we are in a battle with them. , the loss is huge, but I want to tell you, that is just the beginning, from now on they will really attack us!" The
gathered crowd couldn't help but talk.
"Just started?"
"We have suffered so much loss, and the opponent hasn't used all his strength yet?"
"Can we still hold on?"
"Let's just surrender..."
Jimmy stretched out his hand and pressed down, then pressed down, three times. .
Seeing that he couldn't stop the discussion at all, he slammed his fist on the table in front of him, making a dull sound, which shocked everyone, and then stopped the discussion.
"Everyone, calm down!" Jimmy clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "The situation is indeed very, very bad! Not long ago, many peripheral members of our Blood Ship were attacked by a curse, and they all suffered serious injuries. There were even Several people died. And I also received news that the Golden Lion Heart's 'execution squad', which has been causing trouble for us, suddenly disappeared and is probably planning a very big attack!" Everyone started talking again
.
"Really?"
"It's so bad..."
"Then just surrender..."
Jimmy raised his tone, shouted, and suppressed the discussion: "But the worse it gets, the more calm we have to be! I I believe that the Blood Ship organization is undergoing the greatest test, and we must all try our best to endure it!"
In the end, Jimmy was almost shouting.
Everyone fell silent and looked at each other. No one spoke for a while.
Jimmy breathed out and was about to strike while the iron was hot to encourage everyone, when an untimely and cold voice sounded.
"I said, Senior Jimmy, our situation is so bad now, why do we still have to resist? Even if we can survive this time, what will we do in the future? Why don't we be more sensible and simply surrender to those people with Golden Lion Heart and spend our blood Once the ship is disbanded, there will naturally be no such troubles."
"Disband the blood ship?" Jimmy was stunned and looked at the speaker. The rest of the people in the field also looked at the speaker.
They saw that the other party was a somewhat pale student named Robin. Facing the attention of everyone, he showed little fear. Instead, he looked directly at Jimmy and said word by word: "Surrender is the right choice!" "Bang!
" !"
Jimmy clenched his fist and punched the table hard, glaring at the other party: "You want to surrender? Do you want the Blood Ship to disband? Do you know how difficult it is for our Blood Ship to go all the way? We have experienced so many dangers on the sea, and it is so difficult. Dark Heart Academy failed, but we could only be bullied. We were forced to join forces, unite together, help each other, and be consistent with the outside world. Only in this way can we finally gain a firm foothold in this academy and give everyone hope to be promoted. Maybe It is possible that a wizard will appear among us one day!
But you want to disband, but you want everyone to turn into a ball of loose sand again, and then surrender to those hateful golden lion-hearted guys? Let me ask you, if you really disband If we take the blood ship and surrender to the Golden Lion Heart, can they let us go? On the contrary, we have lost all the power to resist and are manipulated by them at will! To be honest, I really doubt which side you are on! You , So cowardly!"
After hearing Jimmy's words, many people cast suspicious glances at Robin and couldn't help but whisper.
"This guy is indeed a bit too much. Even if we disband and surrender, the other party may not let us go." "Why do I think
he surrendered first?"
"You mean, he betrayed us?"
" We can't say for sure, but we don't have evidence. Let's take a look first and then say..."
"If he is really a traitor, I will never spare him!"
After hearing Jimmy's refutation and everyone's discussion, Robin's eyes narrowed. But there was no panic, and a soft snort came out of the nose.
He raised his chin slightly, glanced at everyone present, and finally looked at Jimmy, saying in a deep voice: "Senior Jimmy! Call me cowardly, call my position a little suspicious, but I want to ask, you are not suspicious. What?
If surrender is cowardice and betrayal, then tell me, if we are resisting like this, what is the way out? Yes, it is indeed easier for us to be united than when we are scattered, but there is no fundamental change. And When we used the Blood Ship group to compete for more benefits, we encountered resistance from many apprentice organizations such as Golden Lion Heart! From the beginning of the boycott until now, have we gained anything? Not only has there been no gain, but Are you still losing money? Loss of energy, magic stones, and even lives!
At the beginning, all of us had a bad life, but at least no one would die. What about now? How many have died? Have you counted them? You don’t Do you know? Well, let me tell you, so far, eleven people in our blood ship have died, and there are twenty-four others with different injuries! Yes,
resisting and resisting to the end does sound good, and it does sound just. , but it doesn’t mean that everyone has to die! If we continue to resist, can we really win? Rather than being wiped out by the Golden Lion Heart, it is better to surrender and leave a way to survive. This is an academy after all, and I don’t believe in their Golden Lions The heart can really slaughter those of us who don't resist without restraint!"
"I..." Jimmy tried to retort.
Robin didn't give him a chance at all, and said in a deep voice: "Resistance makes people passionate, but it can only lead to meaningless sacrifice. Surrendering sounds cowardly, but it is useful! I know that you must have a heart to help everyone, but Both you and each of us are too weak. Without the strength, we cannot compete for interests that do not belong to us. Even unity is useless. In this case, it is better to
disband and surrender. If you insist on letting everyone fight to the end, I will I wonder which side you are on. Do you have to let everyone die before you give up? Could it be that you have been in charge of the blood ship for so long and have been confused by this insignificant false power? You would rather everyone die than Maintain this false right to the end?"
"You..." Jimmy stared at Robin with his eyes wide open, and when he opened his mouth, he found that nothing could come out.
He really didn't expect that Robin, who usually had no sense of presence, would be so sharp in his verbal offensive that he couldn't refute him at all.
Robin's words also made the rest of the Blood Ship think about it and found that there was indeed some truth in it. If they continued to carry on like this, there might not necessarily be a good end.
"Speaking of which, we have indeed lost a lot of people. Even if we win the Golden Lion Heart, there is really no hope for the rest of the apprentice organization." Everyone started to talk.
"Our blood ship was indeed useful at first, I admit it, but then it seemed like it just held meetings and didn't accomplish anything at all."
"This is the wizarding world after all. You still have to rely on your strength. Spending energy on staying together can only keep warm. The only way out is to find ways to gain strong strength." "How about disbanding?"
Listen
. As everyone spoke, Jimmy's expression became more and more ugly, and his hands clenched loudly.
At this time Lilith, one of the "Big Three", stood up. This thin black-haired girl with very sharp eyes walked up to Jimmy, lightly patted Jimmy on the shoulder, and then looked at everyone: "I don't I don't know what the truth is, so I'll keep it short. I don't deny that what Robin just said is somewhat true. If we persist, it does seem like there is no hope, so we might as well disband. But I want to make it clear that the ones who are developing the best at the moment are me and Jimmy and Aya have really disbanded and become the scattered sand they were before. We are all confident that we can live a good life in the academy, but will you do the same? The establishment of Blood Ship was something everyone agreed on at the beginning. The three of
us Individuals do have a little more weight in their words, but we have stated from the beginning that we will help each other and treat everyone equally, regardless of status. Therefore, the three of us did not enjoy any privileges in the blood ship. Instead, we spent a lot of effort to fight for everyone's interests. , to help everyone improve their strength.
We are relieved if we are really disbanded, but what will happen to you? You know best what Blood Ship has brought to you, so it is up to you to decide whether to disband or not. It doesn't matter. Just one thing! I personally like the atmosphere of Blood Ship, so I would rather not have anything in return. I also want to help everyone in this organization and stay at the end. So, whoever of you is willing to surrender and disband, just leave
. I will never stop you. But if you want to stay and don’t want to run away, then I, Lilith, promise to stay with you until the end and never be a deserter!" After saying this,
Lilith looked at Aya Emily aside, Asked: "Aya, what do you think?"
"I..." Aya Emily pondered for a second, took a deep breath and said, "I will stay with you in the Blood Ship organization until the end. ."
"Jimmy?!" Lilith turned her head and looked to the other side and asked.
Jimmy was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening, and said in a deep voice: "Me too!"
"That's good." Lilith looked at everyone, "So if you want to leave, just leave. If you want to stay, just be friends with us." Stay at the end."
His eyes swept over everyone, and finally fell on Robin, and said sharply: "Robin, do you really want to leave? Well, you can go directly!"
Robin stood up, his expression It was a little ugly, but he did not leave the next moment, muttering in a low voice: "I will leave, but not now, but when the people with Golden Lion Heart attack in full force, everyone suffers heavy losses, and you admit your mistakes, I will leave again. Just wait, it's not far!"
"Yeah, well, just wait. And if you don't want to leave now, just sit down for me so as not to block the view of the people behind you!" "
I..." Robin was here Under Lilith's sharp gaze, she finally sat back down in her seat reluctantly, "Huh, just sit down."
As Robin sat down, the psychology of everyone in the venue quietly changed.
In the end, no one took the initiative to get up and leave.
After Lilith, Jimmy, and Aya Emily looked at it, they quickly exchanged glances. Jimmy was determined and immediately seized the opportunity to boost morale.
At this moment, an alert Blood Ship member hurried in outside the door.
"What's the matter, Fudi?" Jimmy swallowed what he was about to say, looked at the person running in, and asked.
The male student named Fudi looked extremely panicked at this time. He gasped for breath for several seconds and struggled to speak out: "Gold...Golden Lion Heart..." "Isn't it the Golden Lion Heart that is attacking with all its
strength?" Seeing Fudi, In this way, the atmosphere that had finally been stabilized in the venue changed again, and discussions started to sound.
"Could they know that we are gathering here and want to attack everyone?"
"Then let's fight with the other party!"
"No matter how hard we fight, the other party must be ready. Can we have a chance?" "
What's going on?" Jimmy frowned deeply, looked at Fodi and asked, "Speak slowly and clearly."
Fodi finally breathed evenly, exhaled a long breath, and said to Jimmy: "The man with the golden heart of the lion is here!"
" Are you really here?" Everyone was in an uproar.
"How many people are here?" Jimmy asked in a deep voice.
"One." Fudi stretched out a finger and said seriously.
"Huh?" Everyone and Jimmy were a little stunned. Is there something wrong with this?
"Are you sure about this person?" Jimmy confirmed.
"Yes, there is only one person, Moss, the president of the Golden Lion Heart." Fudi nodded.
After listening, Jimmy and everyone showed thoughtful expressions, wondering why the other party came to the door alone.
Does the other party think that one person can defeat everyone in the Blood Ship?
Isn't this too crazy?
At this time, Robin, who was sitting down, spoke up: "Senior Jimmy, and everyone, isn't this very simple? Why does the president of the Golden Lion Heart come alone? He is here to give us an ultimatum, or rather It's giving us the last chance to surrender! Coming alone is a show of sincerity, but if we can't seize the opportunity, then the one who comes later will be the owner of Golden Lion Heart!" Jimmy's body shook slightly
, He discovered that Robin, although annoying to him, had a point.
So...the president of the Golden Lion Heart came alone to persuade him to surrender?
Jimmy's eyes twinkled slightly.
"Bang!"
The door of the small auditorium was forcefully opened, and a red-haired man walked in, it was Moss.
Everyone's eyes fell on Moss. Moss frowned and kept walking towards Jimmy.
He walked to a place less than two meters away from Jimmy and stood there. He looked at Jimmy up and down, and then looked at the rest of the people in the field. After scanning it once, his eyes fell on Jimmy again, his expression was a little...indescribably weird.
Not as aggressive as expected, he stood there without speaking, just looking at Jimmy coldly.
Jimmy couldn't help but speak, trying to stay calm and asked: "President Moss, why are you here at our Blood Ship meeting?" "
Humph." Moss sneered, "It's time now, there's no need to pretend, right? Otherwise it would be too boring. You and the people in Blood Ship really don’t know why I’m here, do you have to tell me clearly?”
Jimmy couldn’t help but feel his heart sink, and found that Robin’s words should have come true.
The opponent is probably here to persuade them to surrender, to give Blood Ship a final chance to surrender. The rest of the people in the field were struggling with their expressions, a little angry and a little confused, not knowing what to do.
Really resist to the end? But not a rival at all.
Disband and surrender? But can the other party really be spared?
Or... take the opportunity to get rid of Moss who is alone? Some people have evil thoughts in their hearts and then quickly reject them. Moss can come alone, so he must be prepared to take risks. Besides, maybe the golden lion-hearted people outside are already prepared. Even if Moss is killed, it will only anger the people with Golden Lion Heart, and then the Blood Ship will have no good fruits to eat.
There was silence for a while. Jimmy was helpless, but had to speak out. He looked at Moss and exhaled: "Okay, you said so, let's get straight to it. You are here just to persuade..." "Yes.
" , I surrender on behalf of the Golden Lion Heart!" Moss said solemnly, interrupting Jimmy's words.
"Huh?" Jimmy was stunned.
"Huh?" Aya Emily, Lilith and the rest of the people present were all stunned. There were expressions of surprise on their faces, and many people stood up and looked at Moss with wide eyes. Robin even picked up his ears, feeling that there was something wrong with his hearing.
"You...are you here to surrender?"
"Why, don't you blood ship even accept surrender? Do you want to kill all of us Golden Lion Hearts? Don't go too far, the worst is that we will fight with you!" Si said with a cold face.
"But...why?" Jimmy thought for a long time, his head was breaking, but he still couldn't figure out why the Golden Lion Heart, which clearly had the absolute advantage, surrendered to the Blood Ship. When did his blood ship become so powerful? Why didn't he know?
"Why? Are you still asking me? I am talking to you very seriously. I hope you can restrain your pretense of not understanding. This is basic etiquette! Okay, if you want to ask, then I will tell you. Why Surrender, isn't it because of that master of yours!
You have hidden such a strong master and never exposed it, just to make our golden lion heart look good at the critical moment! Not bad, really good, your blood ship really made me I'm impressed!"
Although he surrendered, Moss' momentum did not lose. He stared at Jimmy and continued: "I don't know what you want to do, but we, the Golden Lion Hearts, have decided to stop the conflict between us. Continue. Come down, I will step down as president and focus on improving my strength. Quinn will be responsible for the affairs of the Golden Lion Heart. If
you have any conditions, you can think about it and tell Quinn. But I hope you won’t go too far. Yes, You do have a great advantage by hiding such a master, but if you push Golden Lion Heart into a desperate situation, it will be a life-and-death situation for none of us!" "Okay, that's all I'll say, goodbye, what's next
? Please contact Quinn." After leaving these words, Moss glanced at everyone in the room again, trying to find the hidden master, but without success, he snorted and turned around to leave without looking back.
Watching Moss leave, the venue fell into a long silence.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke.
Because the amount of information in Moss's words is a bit too much, it needs to be digested carefully.
After a while, Jimmy thought of something, turned to look at Aya Emily, leaned close and asked in a low voice: "So, was it your teacher who took action?" "
Huh? Teacher?" Aya Ai Millie was slightly startled.
"Yes." Jimmy said quickly, "What Moss said just now was very clear. It was a master on our side who forced the opponent to surrender, turning our situation around instantly. Only a wizard like your teacher can do this. Can you do it?"
"This..." Aya Emily hesitated. As far as she knew, her wizard teacher didn't like to interfere in such trivial matters between students. But what Jimmy said makes sense. It seems that only her teacher can do this and stand on their side.
Or...
I don't know why, but another person suddenly flashed in Aya Emily's mind.
Senior Li Hyuk?
No way...
