I, Hierophant Elden, join the chat group

At the deepest point, in the simply constructed secret base, nearly two hundred people gathered at the moment.

In addition to Su Feng, Hubi, and Jibril hiding in the dark, there were one hundred and seventy-nine people including Rick, each wearing the black feather cloak of the Crow Mountain Assassin.

In this dim environment, there is a ghost-like presence.

Ivan and Yare, who initially followed Rick, are also among them.

These people, including Rick himself, are carefully selected pawns, as pawns who are preparing to end this war and sacrifice their lives as the future of mankind.

In front of the round table, after looking around at each member, Rick, as the "Ghost Leader", slowly spoke:

"The war will eventually come to an end, but I have decided not to wait for that illusory future!"

Rick's voice wasn't loud, but it was enough to get everyone's attention.

“Running for your life in such a world with nothing to gain, praying for the end of the war—who do you pray to?

Those destroyers who call themselves gods? ! Or is it God who can't even stop them, or some other existence? ! In this damn world, are we born to live in an ignoble existence, treated as nothing more than ants and trivial matters by those superior races and gods, until the end of the war? !

Then what? ! Where do we go from here? ! "

"I heard that they are fighting for the throne of the only god. Those who will participate in such a war, no matter who the final winner is, will the future they bring be better than the present - right? !”

Rick poured out these words in one breath that he had never dared to say to others in the past, slapped the table in an exaggerated manner, and roared as if he was venting his emotions.

Until the catharsis of his emotions ended, the whole person regained his composure again. His godless eyes scanned everyone equally, and in the calmest tone, he spoke of the future that everyone least wanted to admit——

"It's time for us to wake up from our ignorance and lies, and it's time to admit it... There is no hope in this world."

Everyone present was silent.

Didn't they already realize what Rick said?

They just refuse to admit it, because once they admit this "fact", they will completely "collapse", so they are deceiving themselves from beginning to end, in order to survive in this natural disaster and apocalyptic war, praying for that illusory day to come soon arrival.

Just when they were hiding under their hoods with sad expressions on their faces, Rick spoke again:

"So - it's time for us to resist, let us end this war with our own hands!

Maybe you will think this is my wishful thinking, but now I can tell you that this is not an illusory future, nor is it a wishful thinking!

Because we have welcomed our savior——"

While speaking, Rick had already given up his position.

Everyone's eyes are focused there.

The person standing there was none other than Su Feng.

And the savior in Rick's mouth is self-evident.

Surrounded by everyone's hopeful eyes, Su Feng was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "Rick, you really gave me a difficult problem. I don't know how to mobilize before the war and make speeches." ..”

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Su Feng, you can say whatever you want, no matter what you say, we will believe you!" Rick said decisively.

Even if everyone present does not believe in Su Feng, he will always choose to support Su Feng, even if it costs him his life.

In Rick's eyes, Su Feng is hope, the only hope for mankind.

"All right."

Su Feng sighed softly, walked slowly to where Rick was standing just now, and looked around at the one hundred and seventy-nine people gathered in front of the round table.

He took another deep breath, until the beating of his heart gradually calmed down, until Hubie's eyes were completely locked on him, until everyone was looking forward to his speech.

Su Feng slowly said:

"....Here, I would like to ask you a question, what do you think the weight of a civilization is?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at each other with confusion.

They thought Su Feng would say something grand, but in the end he just raised a question?

And it’s still a strange question——

How much does a civilization weigh?

Even Rick couldn't help but frown at this moment.

He couldn't figure it out.

At this time, Su Feng's voice came again: "Actually... I saw this question in a book -

[If a human weighs 3.5 kilograms, how much does a civilization weigh? 】

At the beginning, I was just as curious and puzzled as everyone present, but when I read later, this book gave me an answer——

Probably, the quality of a piece of film. "

After hearing this, everyone frowned.

They still know what film is.

But--

Except for newborns, no matter what, the weight of a human being cannot be only 3.5 kilograms, and civilization is an abstract concept. How can it be weighed, and the weight of only one piece of film can be weighed.

Only Rick seemed to understand what Su Feng meant.

The weight of a human being is 3.5kg. Those are human remains, and that piece of film is the ashes after the demise of civilization. What the historical data carries is the weight of the entire civilization...

At this moment, Su Feng continued:

"But now, I have a new answer -"

Everyone raised their heads and looked at him, and he said word for word: "It's 0."

"Being worthless to strangers can be said to be a hilarious joke, a piece of the past that is fleeting..."

"but--

To those involved, it is extremely precious and cannot be measured by weight. "

Su Feng's voice was not loud, but his words were like thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts.

yes.....

To those who have nothing to do with it, other people's civilization is just a joke.

For those involved, it carries immeasurable hope.

“Everyone, everyone here has nothing to lose, not even their lives!

In this devastated world with no hope of tomorrow, death is not the end, but a kind of rest.

But now, a future with slim hope is waiting for your choice!

I can’t guarantee that after you pay the price with your lives, this future will come, and I can’t guarantee where this road will eventually lead…

But one thing, I can assure you -

Gods can also bleed, and we are the sharp knives that pierce the hearts of gods! "

Words have power.

This is true, at least the blood in the hearts of those present now is boiling.

Are these things Su Feng said crazy?

That's for sure.

Mental abnormality and extremely crazy behavior can be said to be arrogance if you think about it with common sense.

How can humans defeat gods?

But everyone present did not refute, and subconsciously chose to believe what he said.

"Everyone, we have to admit that we humans are not a race that is good at violence, nor are we a race that is born for fighting and killing like the Flügel."

"We are not like the forest elves, who are born with the ability to use all kinds of magic; nor are we born with the physical fitness of the orcs; nor are we as long-lived as the dragon elves."

"We are the weak, weak with only a few decades to live!"

"but--!"

“No matter what era or world, the strong always hone their minions, while the weak hone their wisdom!

Just because we are weak, we learn to think, so we learn how to survive!

Because we are human beings, our wisdom is the most powerful weapon in our hands! "

"So what if we don't have the nerves to connect to the Elf Corridor? What if we don't have magical adaptability?! We are still continuing to this day in this war of changes in the world!"

"The tide has turned, and it's time to change the leadership of this war."

"Now is the time to use our wisdom to launch a counterattack! Raise the flag of rebellion to the high gods!"

"Fight for the families you protect and for our civilization!"

"Mist-hiding raptor, we are the feathers of death! Give your heart to our civilization!"

"We, humans, will never compromise!"

Su Feng's passionate words echoed faintly.

After a few seconds, an astonishing roar erupted from the cave.

"Fight for your family!"

"Fight for civilization!"

"Mist-lurking raptor, we are the feathers of death! Give your heart to our civilization!!!"

"We wait for humans and will never compromise!!!"

Listening to the shouts of everyone present, looking at everyone's excited appearance, their hearts beat to the same beat, forming a hymn of courage.

Slowly, Su Feng stepped back and gave up his position to Rick, but the smile on his lips could not be stopped.

The look in the darkness and Hubie's eyes seemed to say——

See, this is human beings.

Human beings who will not back down even in desperate situations.

The hymn of mankind is always the hymn of courage!

What about despair? Just burn the cauldron and sink the boat.

So what if we face difficulties? Just break it into pieces with your own flesh and blood.

The so-called difference in winning rate is nothing more than the distance from the other side of the void to the quiet side of Nirvana.

It makes no sense to humans.

As mentioned in the preface, winning or losing is always 50% to each side.

You either lose or you win, there is never a draw.

Here, a total of one hundred and seventy-nine ghosts and one hundred and seventy-nine feathers of death set sail, preparing to rain down deadly poison on the aloof gods.

And all of this was broadcast live in the group by Rick, without leaving a trace.

The group was happy: "Aha, aha, ahaha! Human beings never compromise! Aha likes this sentence! This is very happy!!!"

Fujiwara Chika: "...Well, I'm a little curious. Is this also called not being able to speak?"

Kenneth El-Melloi: "Little girl, this is just Mr. Su Feng's humble statement."

Chika Fujiwara: "Huh? Is that so? But I feel like that wry smile just now doesn't look like humility..."

Fireproof Girl: "Lord Su Feng, you are very great."

The Holy Lord of Eternal Calamity and Reincarnation: "Well, this is just because he wants to look handsome, but... I can't refute this time. What Su Feng said makes sense, and even I feel a trace of passion. Woolen cloth."

The Holy Lord of Eternal Calamity and Reincarnation: "Even if this set of remarks were placed in Night City, at least it would be a legend like Johnny Silverhand."

The Holy Lord of Eternal Calamity and Reincarnation: “V, what do you think?”

V: "I don't understand much about this, but it's very well said, and it makes people... quite excited."

In fact, V didn't know how to comment. Sitting in the car and enjoying the breeze, the words kept echoing in his mind -

Never compromise!

Just as Kaguya Houraiyama said, if Su Feng was in Night City, he might really ban the "terrorist" who had blown up Arasaka Tower, and maybe Johnny Silverhand who became a symbol of resistance in the era.

As for the others, after seeing the live broadcast screen at this moment, they did not make any comments.
