"... I am here to join you, but before that, I have some questions to ask, about this 'empire', about you..."
Li Fei looked at Ke Lin across the table and said, "I'm not trying to pour cold water on you, but what I want to say is that if you join you, you need to hand over everything...
"This means that we have lost all means of resistance. I believe that you have no problem now, but what about the future? Can you ensure that you can maintain your original intention in the future
"Even if you stick to your own heart, we all know that there are many things in this world that can distort people's hearts..."
This is indeed a problem. In this world, personal persistence alone is useless. Too many things can distort a person's appearance and completely change him or her from the inside out.
The extent of the changes is even greater than those of __.
At this time, facing the other party's question, Colin was silent for a while. In fact, he had prepared a lot of scripts and many nice words.
But after thinking about it, Colin did not intend to use the prepared remarks, but simply stated his own thoughts:
"I'm not sure I can keep my original intention in the future. After all, this world is indeed like what you said. It's too dangerous and too troublesome...
"However, regarding the latter, due to some of my own characteristics, I can assure you that ordinary things will hardly affect me... As for why, you should understand it after a while..."
Relying on the extremely exclusive nature of the "Source of Light", Colin can guarantee that he will not be changed even if a great being comes.
Of course, facing these things, the possibility of him dying on the spot is greater than being distorted and changed.
"And I have to remind you that..."
Having said this, Colin paused before continuing,
"What I and we can do is not to make those 'long-term' plans. All we can do is to live well today and prepare for tomorrow.
"We have determined our immediate goal - to protect and rescue all those who can be rescued.
"As for what you said... With all due respect, it is not within the scope of current consideration."
"I see... "
Li Fei nodded without showing much emotion on his face, and then continued without much pause, "So, in order to save some people, would you make a lot of sacrifices? Even put yourself in danger, like now?"
If you are willing to make a lot of sacrifices just to save a few unimportant people, then...
Even if it offends Colin, she will "go back on her word" without hesitation and refuse to join this so-called "empire".
After all, from a practical point of view, such an "empire" can't go far...
But the really difficult question here is the latter...
In Li Fei's opinion, the most important thing for this "empire" at the moment is neither the existing firepower nor the other personnel, but... Colin himself.
As long as Colin himself is still there, the "empire" can be rebuilt at any time, but not otherwise.
If the other party does not realize what they really are at the moment, Li Fei will not join in, but choose to cooperate.
"Won't."
Colin answered without thinking, "The existence of the 'Empire' is for unity and to save as many people as possible, not for the sake of sacrifice. That means going to extremes and taking the wrong path...
