Chapter 120 Divergence
The headquarters of the Weishizhe Group in Dachang City.
Luo Xi stood where the training ground used to be, looking at the flat ruins in front of her, and fell into a brief silence.
She slowly turned her head to look at Qiangwei and Luo Xin beside her. "What's going on? I just went out and killed a few people, and who the hell demolished my training ground?"
Her gaze swept over the once fully equipped but now empty space, a pile of metal rubble, and her voice carried a murderous intent: "Where is my huge training ground? A training ground the size of two football fields?"
"Rose, Luo Xin," she asked, emphasizing each word, "tell me, has the Witch Council attacked?"
It's true, you can mess with her, but mess with her training ground, the training ground she uses for body tempering, no matter who it is, is already courting death!
Rose remained calm, while Lily beside her was laughing so hard she was doubled over.
Lily and Rose are of one mind and clearly know the inside story.
"I just had a friendly sparring session with your sister and accidentally messed up the training ground," Rose said apologetically.
"Huh?" Luo Xi was taken aback.
"You guys...sparring?" The murderous intent in her heart faded, replaced by immense curiosity. "Who suggested it?"
Rose is quiet and reserved, so she wouldn't bring up sparring. As for her younger sister, Luo Xin? That child has always been a bit silly, like a bookworm.
"It's me, brother, uh, sister," Luo Xin replied.
An unexpected answer.
"Oh?" Luo Xi wanted to ask who won and who lost, but thinking of Qiangwei's strength, she swallowed her words.
It was rare for her younger sister, Luo Xin, to take the initiative to challenge someone, especially a strong opponent like Qiangwei. She knew she had never beaten her before, and she didn't want to discourage her sister's enthusiasm.
"Very good, that's more like my sister." Luo Xi nodded, her voice full of undisguised praise.
"I can allow you to call me brother, or sister, or even teacher," she said. She was a little unaccustomed to her younger sister calling her brother and sister at the same time. "Of course, I prefer the title 'fellow Daoist.' If you don't mind, you can call me dad, father, or father."
"Then I'll still call you brother!" Luo Xin's lips curled up slightly, seemingly happy. "After all, I've been calling you that for several years now, and I'm not used to calling you anything else."
Luo Xi remained noncommittal.
"Rose, Lily, let me ask you a question," Luo Xi then turned to look at Rose and Lily, "If we were to launch a decapitation strike against all the Witch Council members now, what are the chances of us being attacked by nuclear weapons again?"
"One hundred percent." Rose answered without hesitation, "But not us, but ordinary people. The Witch Council's headquarters members are scattered in cities around the world. If attacked, their first reaction will not be to retaliate against us, but to launch nuclear missiles at major cities around the world."
"Because we're not afraid of nuclear weapons, at least I'm not," Lily added, her smile gone. "They'll use the most despicable methods to force us to stop."
Luo Xi remained silent for a moment, then spoke with a hint of reluctance: "How about we try a different approach? Is there any possibility of success if we destroy the global nuclear arsenal first?"
"Even lower." Rose shook her head. "As soon as one base is attacked, they'll press the button immediately. When they discover the attacker is a witch, they'll only press it faster. We can't destroy all the nuclear weapons at the same time."
"Damn it..." Luo Xi kicked away the concrete debris at her feet in frustration. The nearly 100-kilogram piece of debris flew away like a cannonball, creating a deep crater in the ruins.
The Witch Council actually resorted to such shameless methods.
Yes, if she didn't care about the lives of ordinary people, she would have destroyed the Witch Council long ago.
She had considered using public opinion, but... she shared information about the nuclear attack on Qianhe County, Nuchuan City with ordinary people through consciousness transmission, but many ordinary people simply did not believe it.
After thinking for a moment, she took out the list given to her by Fang Wei, the governor of Dachang City, and asked, "How long will it take to deal with all the people on this list?"
"About a week," Rose shook her head. "They're too scattered. The furthest they're apart is over two thousand kilometers. According to our destiny, if we kill just one of them, the others will flee in panic. A week is a conservative estimate."
"If we attack them, will they launch a nuclear strike?" Luo Xi asked.
"No, they don't have that level of authority yet," Rose replied with a smile.
"That's true," Luo Xi thought for a moment, "Rose, Lily, I'll need to trouble you. I don't want the people on the list to see the sun tomorrow..."
"Now, take me to visit them one by one!"
The air suddenly became quiet.
Rose and lily exchanged a glance, but neither of them moved.
Luo Xi looked at the two of them with some confusion, but Qiangwei spoke up, "Xiao Xi, I think there are some things you've done poorly."
"For example?" Luo Xi didn't care what she had done; she only cared about Rose and Lily's attitudes. It wasn't just based on Rose and Lily's strength; she needed Rose's assistance for many things.
"For example, Yue Tong," Rose glanced at Yue Tong not far away, "I don't want you to lead the witches down the path of slaughter."
Without hesitation, Luo Xi said, "That's why I asked Yue Tong for her opinion before I let her go and kill someone."
"But I don't think it's a good idea..." Rose said quietly.
"Le Tong is all alone now..." Luo Xi sneered. "Don't you know how her family died?"
"Now she's all alone," Luo Xi lowered her head. "She can only survive by learning how to fight, how to face the malice of others, and by hardening her heart."
"But there's still us..." Rose began quietly. "When the Vivers Group summoned witches, you initially convinced me with the excuse that witches help each other, and I also used that same argument to inform the witches I knew..."
Luo Xi stared at Qiangwei. Given Qiangwei's mindset, she wouldn't normally care about the lives of ordinary people. Her sudden attack clearly indicated her dissatisfaction with what she had asked the witch to do.
"But now, you're turning them into weapons," Rose said quietly, her face devoid of any emotion. "I have to take responsibility for them."
Luo Xi remained silent for a few seconds.
"It's not enough for witches to just gather together, Rose," she said earnestly, enunciating each word clearly. "Only when we unite and have the power to overturn the table will our enemies be wary. Only when all witches learn to fight will we avoid being kept in captivity and eliminated."
"You know that the Witch Council is hostile to us now," Luo Xi glanced at Qiangwei, showing no sign of backing down, "Without us, without the Vivers Group, witches simply cannot survive in this world if they don't learn to fight."
"Bai Nuo was imprisoned and experimented on by the council as soon as she woke up. When I first transformed into a witch and gained supernatural powers, I was almost killed by heavy artillery. Le Tong's family was used as a weakness to force her to submit. These experiences taught me one thing: kindness cannot buy peace."
She looked at Rose seriously, "They joined the Vivers Group, and I must ensure their safety, teach them how to fight, and teach them how to face hostility. That is how I take responsibility for them."
"Are you using them as your weapons?" Rose asked quietly.
This time, Luo Xi remained silent for an even longer period.
"No," she finally replied, "I can use myself as a weapon, as a tool, but I won't do that to others."
"I can't tell if what you're saying is true or false right now. You're getting better and better at disguising yourself," Rose said, looking at her. "Let's sleep together tonight, so I can feel your heart..."
"Impossible!" Luo Xi's voice turned cold.
