Infinite Bloodcore

Chapter 438: Section 225: Divine Revelation of Justice

Seeing Chi Lai willing to offer help on his own initiative, the Dragon-man youth felt a warmth in his heart.

His brows relaxed slightly as he sighed and said, “To tell the truth, I am very disappointed.”

Chi Lai immediately showed a look of realization, “Is it about Hun Tong?”

In fact, it was not just Hun Tong that the Dragon-man youth was disappointed with, but also with himself.

But when it came to the secret of the treasure beneath the sea, the Dragon-man youth would not reveal it, nodding as he said, “Indeed, part of it concerns him.”

“Hun Tong is a noble of the Empire, a real Lord, who should uphold justice and draw a clear line against evil.”

“However, he took the initiative to trade with pirates, facilitating their debt settlements. Pirates were able to recoup their funds smoothly and arm themselves for more plundering.”

“Hun Tong is undoubtedly their accomplice!”

“Furthermore, during the previous chaos, he kept the Golden Shiny hidden until the very end, only taking action because the treasure was leaving the island.”

“When we left the island, he deceived us by selling us the flagship of the Bandage Mercenary Group. Next, he will definitely act against the victims.”

“Although the Bandage Mercenary Group mainly fought to preserve themselves during the melee, they were our comrades-in-arms after all.”

“Such behavior from Hun Tong is really disappointing.”

In actuality, the Dragon-man youth also felt guilty.

A thought lingered in his heart—if their side hadn’t taken the undersea treasure, and Hun Tong had obtained wealth, would he have spared the Bandage Mercenary Group? Or rather, if Zi Di had taken only half of the treasure? Leaving a portion for Hun Tong, indirectly benefiting the common poor?

As this thought brought feelings of guilt to his conscience, another voice arose in the youth’s heart: “Leaving the treasure behind would help these poor people? That’s too naive! Hun Tong is cunning and deceitful; he would never willingly offer his benefits. His strategy during the chaos was clearly to become the sole winner, devouring the other parties!”

“The survivors urgently need this batch of undersea treasure, just the activation of the anti-surveillance prophecy matrix consumes a lot of funds. The finances of the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps are quite precarious, with no response to the ransom note, and the future is full of unpredictability and hardship. We must seize every opportunity to expand our own chances of survival!”

“Just like on Mysterious Monster Island, just like on Snake Rat Island, only by surviving can we carry out justice. Every life has the basic right to survive, and striving for such an opportunity to live, what wrong is there in that? First we must survive; that is the greatest justice!”
