Chapter 78 What is Morality?



"I...I'm so sorry, Mr. Li, I acted impulsively." After weighing the pros and cons, Wu Rong decided to compromise, considering that Li Xuanzu still needed to clear out the two Tier 3 zombies near Kyoto.

Li Xuanzu hung up the phone and tossed it back to Leng An.

“This has nothing to do with you. You can tolerate him insulting you?” Li Xuanzu reminded Leng An.

The cleanup of the third-tier zombies was beneficial to the entire Dragon Kingdom. Even though Qian Li let one third-tier zombie go, she at least killed one and took a third-tier spirit core.

Taking on two opponents at once is her skill; the intelligence was simply wrong.

Perhaps the other party has already called Qian Li, but Li Xuanzu is too lazy to ask.

If the higher-ups in the Dragon Kingdom really think that Qian Li, a child, is easy to talk to, they are sorely mistaken. Compared to Li Xuanzu, she is just as uncompromising when it comes to interests; she just doesn't know how to use foul language.

As for the stupid statement that someone should hand over these spirit cores to the country, otherwise it would be considered treason, then...

The ashes of the person who said those words to him before have been scattered, and he wouldn't mind doing it again.

However, Leng An was easier to talk to.

Previously, high-ranking officials from the Dragon Kingdom had approached him asking for some spirit cores, both first and second tier, and he had given them some.

Of course, he would not give away the portion that Li Xuanzu had entrusted to him for safekeeping, nor would he dare to persuade Li Xuanzu to hand it over.

Leng An's psychic power is greatly influenced by the quality and quantity of his psychic cores. By handing over a portion of his psychic cores, he was essentially cutting off an arm for an ordinary psychic.

But Li Xuanzu wouldn't say anything to him. He would say that if he did this, he would be morally superior and he would be ashamed of himself, but he wouldn't ask him to do the same. Otherwise, he would either be scolded or beaten.

Morality can sometimes be more binding than law, but both can become meaningless as order collapses.

In the end times, we cannot despise, scorn, or belittle any person or any behavior.

Perhaps the false compassion of a hypocrite can harm people, but it comes at the cost of sacrificing others for one's own inner pleasure. Even outside of the apocalypse, aren't there plenty of such meaningless acts? How can it be targeted at just one group?

Or perhaps it is the compassion of the true Mother Goddess; they are merely retaining their humanity in the end times, so how can anyone mock them for that?

Undeniably, even in this dark and hopeless situation, the light of humanity still shines brightly. It doesn't need to be fueled to burn, but we shouldn't pour cold water on it or obstruct its illumination.

... ...

It was just a minor incident and didn't affect Li Xuanzu and his group's drive to Ji Province. They needed to speed up because the unknown zombie in the Northeast region was about to leave Liao Province and enter Ji Province.

The zombie's speed was beyond their expectations, and the psionic squad sent by the authorities for reconnaissance still hadn't received any news; they guessed it had been wiped out.

One team consists of three second-tier speed-type psionicists, while the remaining first-tier psionicists are also psionicists whose strength lies in speed.

If even one squad fails to return, there's no need to send other squads to their deaths.

Only three months after the apocalypse, the land on which humanity in the Dragon Kingdom stood had shrunk from a massive nearly ten million square kilometers to less than one percent of its original size.

Fortunately, the population of China is still large. In provinces like Yue and Sichuan, although there are many zombies, a number of civilian organizations have emerged to collect supplies and rescue survivors.

Of course, this is also thanks to Li Xuanzu and his group. Whatever their motives, it is enough that they are doing good for the entire Dragon Kingdom.
