Xu Feng and Xu Yuan looked at each other and knew that Xu Ning was talking about the cameras. If something really happened, everyone could hide in the fortress and not come out.
But at the same time, their fear of what happened on the sea was deep-rooted. They could not imagine what the consequences would be if cannibals really landed one day.
Xu Yuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Ningning, why don't we go back first."
Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, Aunt Yuan, we don't have enough manpower. The Cannibal Island is not small, we have to rely on the army."
Xu Yuan sighed and stopped talking.
Xu Feng patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Aunt Yuan, don't worry too much. We will definitely find a solution."
Xu Ning nodded, his eyes becoming firm: "That's right, Aunt Yuan, we can definitely solve this problem. They are just a group of uncivilized savages. We don't believe we can't destroy them!"
Xu Yuan looked at Xu Ning, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes, but then he heard Xu Ning sigh and say, "Aunt Yuan, it would have been great if we had set fire to that island back then."
Xu Yuan couldn't help but feel distressed when she heard Xu Ning's words, because she knew that Xu Ning was blaming herself. If she had been able to face her fear bravely and eliminate all those cannibals, perhaps everything would be different now.
However, Xu Yuan knew it wasn't that simple. She consoled her, "Ningning, don't overthink it. We all saw those cannibals could swim. And they were human, after all. How could they have just sat there, waiting to be burned?" As Xu Yuan spoke, she recalled the scene, feeling helpless.
She clearly remembered that when the cannibals appeared, Xu Ning was so scared that she even had a nightmare the next day.
Xu Yuan gently stroked Xu Ning's head and said softly, "Ningning, this is not your fault. If anyone is to blame, it's only those hateful cannibals. It's their existence that has put us in this predicament. It's not your fault."
Xu Yuan hopes that by comforting her, he can ease Xu Ning's inner burden and let her understand that this is not her responsibility alone.
