Chapter 944: Just Crossing Calmly
Chen Chuan's answer was not polite at all, and he also had his reasons.
The basis for all his actions is based on the unlimited defense certificate, which is recognized internationally and is also a product left over from the Major League era.
As the successor of the Grand Alliance, the International Investigation Team has the most correct premise of preserving everything in the past of the Grand Alliance. So at this moment they can say that Chen Chuan's action was too cruel, but they cannot use this to accuse him of doing anything wrong.
Skarsson also remained silent.
Chen Chuan added, "Also, I want to say one more thing. We are all fighters. If we hold back during a fight, we would be cruel to ourselves. I think you two should understand this."
Korva agreed very much. If others come to kill you and you still want to show mercy, then you will be the one who gets killed in the end.
So today Chen Chuan can still stand here and talk to them, but those who were killed are lying somewhere unknown and didn’t even have the chance to stand here and be questioned.
Skarsson looked at Chen Chuan and asked again:
"Then, Director Chen, do you prioritize the security of your own country or the World Ring? If both the World Ring and your country were in trouble at the same time, and taking care of one would prevent you from taking care of the other, would you rush to protect the World Ring or save your country?"
Korva turned around and saw that this was not a question that could be answered easily. It seemed simple to choose one, but these things would be written into the investigation team's evaluation report.
The investigation team's assessment of a fighter will not only affect his reputation and status locally, but will also have a profound impact on international public opinion and even the attitudes of some international organizations towards him.
Due to the lack of transparency in fighter information, the international community's understanding of a particular fighter sometimes comes through an international investigation team that stands in a neutral position.
If the fighter is particularly concerned about his reputation, it will be difficult for him to answer this question at once, or he can only give the most "correct" response.
But the questioner can tell whether the response is made against one's will, so sometimes the correct response may not be correct.
So, what answer will this person give?
At this moment, even the pretty girls passing by on the roadside no longer attracted him.
Chen Chuan didn't look as embarrassed or hesitant as he had imagined. Instead, he said directly, "I usually don't judge things that haven't happened, but if you want an answer, I can give you one."
He looked across and said, "If there is a problem with the World Ring and I am responsible for it, I will solve it. If it is not my responsibility, then I will only protect my country and my family."
Skarsson looked at him seriously and asked in a low voice, "So, Director Chen, if you are needed one day, are you willing to sacrifice part of your country's interests, or even your loved ones, for the safety of the World Ring?"
Another sharp issue.
Korva could see that his partner was pressing him step by step, and he needed to use this to infer Chen Chuan's true thoughts and most practical position.
If it were him, he wouldn't know how to answer either.
Chen Chuan said calmly, "If this kind of thing really happens, it's usually not my turn to make the choice. Mr. Skarsson, you seem to be asking the wrong person.
And when I have the ability to make this choice, it will not be someone else's turn to ask this question, so your question does not seem to have much significance to me.
Of course, if you want an answer, I can give it.”
He looked at Skarsson and said bluntly, "My answer is that in my heart, my family comes first. Mr. Skarsson, please write truthfully."
Korva was surprised by Chen Chuan's frankness. He felt that it would be difficult for him to face such questions easily.
It can be seen that Chen Chuan doesn't care what the investigation team thinks of him, nor does he care what the investigation team writes when they go back.
The subtext seems to be telling them that when they become strong enough, others will only follow their own wishes, instead of them having to make choices out of fear of loss.
Skarsson's expression grew even more serious. He was most worried by Chen Chuan's indifferent attitude, which meant that things like public opinion and reputation couldn't constrain him. It wasn't that he didn't care, but rather that he had an extremely firm belief that he could reach a higher level, and when the time came, there would be no need to make any choices.
In his opinion, this was clearly a reflection of a mentality that prioritized force, which was the same as his initial judgment.
It is not difficult to imagine that as his martial arts power increases, countless mature fighters will fall on the road, but that should all be the power to maintain the World Ring.
Seeing the atmosphere grow dull, Korva simply took off his outer uniform and threw it over his shoulders, revealing a casual shirt underneath. He said in a very familiar manner, "Director Chen, we're not familiar with Central City. If there's any place to have fun, Director Chen, you can recommend it to us and we can go and have a look."
Chen Chuan said, "There may not be any place in Jibei Road that you two are interested in."
There are some cities in the world that specialize in providing entertainment for fighters, but in the central city of Jibei Road, the most popular thing is competitive fighting. Although it is the most active time of the year for competitions, it is really too easy for fighters.
If we had to talk about some exciting activities, it would only be the fighting competition between the people of Deep Valley City and the creatures of the Fusion Land. He couldn't possibly take two people there.
Korva shrugged and said, "That's a shame. Can we find a beautiful place to have a drink, chat, and dream about our dreams? This is my first time in Dashun, and I'm very interested in the local customs, culture and history. You see..."
He took out a special small camera from the pocket of his uniform and shook it. "I even brought a camera with me. I can't go back empty-handed, right?"
Chen Chuan said, "Then you two can follow me."
He took the two of them out of the Green Park and boarded his exclusive airship. They left Weiguang District and arrived at the Lielang Canyon in Fengde District. Outside the canyon was Chaocai Lake, the largest inner lake in the central city of Jibei Road. It was summer now, and white egrets and black wild ducks could be seen everywhere. The endless lake reflected the golden light of the warm sun.
Although the weather is quite hot now, it is nothing to them. Moreover, the airship is at high altitude and the gentle breeze makes it very cool.
Korva looked down, took pictures with great interest, and praised, "This place has beautiful scenery."
Skarsson hadn't spoken a word all the way here, like a cold rock. After arriving here, he finally spoke, but the questions he asked continued the previous topic.
"Director Chen, I understand that if you encounter a similar situation again in the future, you will still act without mercy."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "As long as others don't offend me, I won't take the initiative to deal with them. I don't have that much energy to waste on them."
Korva thought to himself, yes, fighting with a fighter is very exhausting, who would want to waste their energy?
Skarsson said in a deep voice, "Could you please, Director Chen, in future situations like this, punish those who are weaker than you, instead of killing them?"
Chen Chuan said: "I'm sorry, I can't make this promise to you, because when I kill an opponent, it's usually because I have a reason to kill them. It has nothing to do with their strength.
Of course, if Your Excellency can convince all fighters in the world to follow this code, then I can follow it as well. But if it's just me, I don't think I can do it."
Skarsson stared at him for a moment, nodded, and then said solemnly, "Director Chen, we are both fighters. I would like to have a fight between two fighters. I wonder if Director Chen is willing to give me this opportunity?"
Chen Chuan had seen his intention from the moment he arrived, which was why he had brought them to this deserted lake. He asked, "Mr. Skarsson, do you still want me to hold back in the future?"
Skarsson replied confidently, "Yes. If I win, then Director Chen, please be as restrained as possible when you encounter an enemy in the future, and do not casually take the lives of fighters who are inferior to you."
He said in a deep voice: "If I lose, I can give you a treasured weapon from my collection from the old times, or I can also give you the one I use myself.
You can rest assured that no matter whether you win or lose, I will personally compensate you for all the expenses incurred during the fight."
Chen Chuan usually welcomes challenge requests from other fighters, as it not only helps him validate what he has learned and maintain his form, but also helps him improve his second self.
According to his judgment, this person should not have reached the realm of longevity.
However, even if there is a fighter who has reached this level, with his current level and the addition of his second self, he is not afraid to fight him.
He nodded and said, "Mr. Skarsson, I agree."
Korva blew a long whistle and immediately became energetic. Isn't this much better than strolling on the lake?
In fact, after reading Chen Chuan's information, he was also very curious about the latter and wanted to see what his strength was.
At this time, Chen Chuan reached out and contacted Zou Handan of the Lower Secret Snake Sect.
"Mr. Zou, I'm Chen Chuan."
A respectful response immediately came from the other side: "Director Chen, is there anything the Secret Snake Cult can do for you?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I want to spar with a martial artist on Chaocai Lake. Although there aren't many people here, I would like to ask your sect to protect us and keep no one away from us to avoid any harm."
Zou Handan immediately responded, "Director Chen, please let us handle this matter. We promise that no one will come to disturb you."
The airship continued to move forward for more than ten kilometers and arrived at the deep part of the lake. Because it was morning and not a holiday, there were no cruise ships nearby.
After arriving here, two figures jumped off the airship. When they reached the lake, they paused, slowly fell down, and stood steadily on the water, standing opposite each other at a distance of hundreds of meters.
After a while, bright and dazzling flames rose from the two of them at the same time, and the originally sparkling clear lake water seemed to split into two completely different colors in an instant.
