[Official Announcement: The Chinese server's 766 region successfully defeated the R server's 13 region, achieving an enemy death and surrender rate exceeding 80%, securing the first victory in the national war. Effective immediately, the R server's 13 region officially becomes a subordinate resource zone of the Chinese server's 766 region! Control of this subordinate resource zone has been handed over to the top-ranked player in the 766 region, Cheese Milk Tea Eight-Point Sugar!]
Cheese Milk Foam with 80% Sugar couldn't bear to hear this. The intense guilt made her almost unable to breathe, her whole body trembling violently, and she didn't even have the strength to raise her hand to wipe away the tears on her face.
The player IDs that were sacrificed flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern. She could even recall some of them laughing and saying "766 region will definitely win" before the battle, but in the end, she chose to kill first and then save later for the sake of final victory.
Unfortunately... there are no perfect solutions in the world, and none of those we tried to save could be saved.
Cheese Milk Foam with 80% Sugar is starting to doubt its ability to be number one, whether it should never have taken up the mantle of the 766 region in the first place, and whether it should have left the position to someone more suitable...
He was instantly consumed by endless self-blame and internal conflict.
But the next second, I was suddenly pulled into a warm embrace, with a faint smell of gunpowder, yet it felt reassuringly stable.
He looked up blankly and saw it was Boss Whirlwind, Qi Xu, the figure that had been flashing through his mind...
"Go ahead and cry, I'm here."
Qi Xu's voice remained cool, yet carried a subtle softening, "Cheese was great, you won, 766 won, the Chinese server won..."
"But...but I abandoned them...they're all dead, they're all dead. They only obeyed me because they trusted me..."
The voice of "Eight-tenths Sugar on Cheese Foam" choked with emotion, tears streaming down her face as she nearly sobbed uncontrollably. "I watched them die, and I was powerless to stop it. I could have saved them from the beginning..."
“If you choose to save them, more people might die.” Qi Xu’s fingertips brushed against the corner of her eye, wiping away the hot tears. “You chose the fastest victory, and you also chose the least casualty cost. If I were in your shoes, I would have done the same.”
Qi Xu had always felt that she wasn't good at comforting people, but now, there were some things she had to say. In fact, Qi Xu wasn't even sure if she was saying this to Cheese Milk Foam Eight-Point Sugar or to someone else.
“Every inch of land beneath our feet was bought with sacrifice, but sacrifice is not the original sin; forgetting is. You can remember their names, remember today’s pain, and then lead the 766 region further. That is the best comfort for them.”
Cheese Milk Foam with 80% Sugar stared blankly at Qi Xu, looking at the tired yet determined light in her eyes, and suddenly understood something. She bit her lower lip hard, swallowed the sob, and slowly straightened her back.
"I...will."
The cheese foam with 80% sugar was in slightly better condition, but Qi Xu could tell that she was putting on a brave face for herself, which made Qi Xu feel a little sorry for her. Pain forces people to grow, and it doesn't give you any time to adjust.
Qi Xu simply turned on the live stream screen again. Xie Shaoning was covered in blood and charged into the crowd of thousands of people. His suicidal fighting style appeared in front of Cheese Milk Tea Eight-Point Sugar.
The cheese foam drink with 80% sugar was finally drawn to the live stream.
