I, Emperor Ursus!

From the patriot's life, it was the few people in his life whom he respected very much, who stood on the opposite side of him at this moment and were his 'enemies'.

"Bojoskaty, I didn't expect that we all became infected."

It was Herag, a man the Patriots could not have imagined.

"And what I didn't expect was that we would meet again in this way."

At this moment, Patriot's tall body trembled suddenly.

"...General, why... are you here? Are you... returning to the Ursus army?"

Immediately afterwards, the patriot asked aloud, the patriot fell into a daze, not because he was ignorant of the fact that Herag was exploited and honored, but because of this, the patriot was confused, confused that Herag would stand with the Ursus army Together, I am even more confused about why Helag wants to sacrifice his life to the Ursus army.

"Returning is not considered returning. Now I don't have a military position in the army. An ordinary soldier may have a higher status than me."

Ushered in Herag's unhesitating acknowledgment, looking directly into the patriot's eyes and whispering sermons.

"But this time, Bodroskati, I want you to surrender. Your talent and ability should not be buried in this snow field, and I don't want to see you, the former loyal captain of Ursus, die. .”

The words at the end made Bozhuoskati's eyes widen involuntarily, and the strength of holding the halberd unknowingly increased a little, and a strange feeling flooded his mind.

"Impossible...General." Then, Patriot decisively vetoed.

"Bodroskaty...was my old name, and now I'm...a patriot."

Calmly expounding his position, his impetuous mood immediately stabilized. The original Captain Ursas has died, and standing here is the general of the integration movement, which also means completely cutting off from the past and actively throwing away the past. Glory, power and all.

"Does it make any difference whether you're a Bodroskaty or a patriot?"

It's a pity that Herag didn't take it seriously, and continued to question, without even pulling out his weapon, as if he didn't regard the patriot as an enemy.

"All I want is the surrender of your guerrillas, and once your guerrillas surrender, everything you have done before will be wiped out, and you will only need to perform 15 years of military service, after which you can go back to normal life, exempting you Crime, this is His Majesty's word of mouth, I can guarantee it."

From the beginning to the end, he never regarded the patriot as an enemy, and he would never regard this person whom he respected who had saved him as an enemy. Everyone was shocked in place. A rebel only needs to serve 15 years of military service to be cleared of the charge of treason. This is an unheard of thing.

If someone else said it, the guerrillas would definitely not believe it.

It's just that if Herag said it, it's impossible for the guerrillas not to believe it. They still trust Herag's character, even though it has contradicted the current reality.

"This...can't explain anything."

It's a pity the Patriots were unimpressed.

"We... are the infected, people of the integration movement... Even if we do some crazy things, we are fighting for the infected... not for ourselves."

He replied intermittently that the patriots were not so happy with this "favor" of avoiding death. They themselves had thought of joining the integration movement, and they had already thought of the end of death, and never thought of any idea of ​​compromise and surviving.

"Then why would you rather believe in the integration movement than the current government, the king you once swore allegiance to?" Herag asked in a very peaceful voice.

"You didn't join the integration movement for your allegiance, but for righteousness. The government let you down before, but now everything in Ursus is changing. Is it true that you insist on the righteousness of the integration movement? Righteousness? It may be a relatively late start, but you and I have high hopes for the future of this country."

Every sentence in succession shocked the patriot's heart on the spot. Even though the patriot said nothing, he also didn't refute anything. It was precisely because he knew that what Herag said was correct, so he couldn't refute it, couldn't refute it. Herag's remarks can only be narrated by Herag.

"I used to be as disheartened as you, but even so, the current King Ursus doesn't mind what I do, and privately persuades me to come back. He has strategies, thoughts, and opinions. , not far worse than the former king, and far more ambitious than the former king, in him, I found a monarch worthy of my allegiance, an emperor worthy of my war."

Yes, everything is changing, so much so that everyone in Ursus has no time to adapt, the beheading of treacherous officials, the reform of the infected, the reorganization of the religious academy, the destruction of oligarchs, these things that have plagued all aspects of Ursus Obstacles have now become the so-called past, and the new era of Ursus has come, which has long been the consensus of everyone in Ursas.

As a person who cares about the current affairs of Ursus, a general who leads the integration movement, how could he not feel it.

Perhaps, he is stupid, because he does not understand that once he loses the consciousness of struggle, he will be destroyed.

Just being stupid doesn't mean he will ignore it, it doesn't mean he won't care, it doesn't mean he will ignore it, he is not like Mephisto and others in the integration movement, he has been paying attention to the changes of Ursus, They were even happy about this, and that the situation of the infected is slowly changing. Maybe one day, without fighting, the patriots expected that the lives of the infected would be changed.

But is it true that without struggle, there will be no new conflicts?Patriots understand that is impossible, no matter what, Ursus infected people have a history of abuse, in which many infected people have a grudge against Ursus, they have become the pillars of the integration movement, continuing With prejudice and hatred, even if Ursus changes, they will not easily accept or let go.

Sooner or later, there will be a revolution, a banner of integration, a banner of rebellion.

In some respects, the reform of the infected is too late. The fire of hatred for Ursus has already burned in the hearts of many infected people. They only want Ursus to pay the price, and only want the infected to become the country Master, he only wants to follow Tallulah to achieve the independence of the infected. Reason often loses to sensibility, and reason often loses to anger. This is the status quo of the integration movement.

He didn't know how to stand in line, and he was actually more confused than his daughter. He could wait, but Tallulah wouldn't wait, and the radicals of the integration movement would not wait.

At that time, when the banner of the revolution of the infected is really raised, it will really be a meaningless fight. The infected are for hatred, the king's army is for the rule, a war without any meaning at all, and finally the traumatized There are only innocent people, the non-infected are among them, and the infected are also among them.

Therefore, the arrival of Herag before Fangqian can be said to exacerbate the bewilderment of the patriots. This general whom he respected so much in the past chose to trust Ursus again. What is he hesitating about?What are you hesitating about?

Before the son who was lost in the past made a decision with him, he was still eager to change Ursas, and his desire to build a better country was once again in the minds of the patriots, which made the hearts of the patriots faintly ache.

"…impossible."

And with an inexplicable mentality, looking at Herag solemnly, the patriot denied Herag's words.

"Even if... he is the emperor whom you... are loyal to, General, it is impossible... to be the emperor whom I loyal to."

Replied in a low voice, the voice was deep and difficult, as if a heavy stone was thrown into the waves, and when it fell, it was impossible to surface again, and it could only be smashed into the abyss of the seabed without breaking free.

"I...in the integration movement...do too much...against the government, even if I surrender...I, and my comrades-in-arms, don't deserve any trust."

At this point, there is no doubt that there is no room for maneuver. No matter whether he surrenders or not, it is the same as Ursas who has been bullied for a period of time. His identity is working for the integration movement, and everything is related to opposing the government and the emperor.

What about returning to the army of Ursus?What qualifications do they have to be reused after fighting against the Ursus army here for many years?

At most, they will be used as tools, used to death, or forced to do something unwilling, and it is impossible to treat them sincerely.

In this regard, the Patriots are very self-aware.

"Then if I don't mind what you do, what about accepting you and your comrades in arms?"

Then, someone responded to the Patriots.

"If I say here that I want to reuse you and want you to be one of my confidantes, can you trust me and believe that I will accept you?"

Just two short questions made Patriot feel overwhelmed by the question, turned his head in a panic, Patriot looked behind him and saw a young man.

"Answer me, Bodroskaty, what is your answer?"

It was Nicholas, the current emperor of Ursus, who slowly walked out from the soldiers of Ursus, to be exact, the personal imperial army, standing in front of the stunned guerrillas, staring blankly at Nicholas, the man in armor The patriot shuddered undisguisedly, for some reason he was a little afraid of Nikolai, as guilty as a child who has done something wrong.

He has never forgotten how much favor he and his race have received from the Ursus royal family. When he led Wendigory away from Kazdale because he didn't want to kill his own kind, he was despised and attacked everywhere and was about to starve to death in the wasteland. It was the former emperor of Ursus who accepted them, gave them the materials for life, gave them their identity, and gave them dignity. This is the reason why they are willing to fight for Ursas.

He was indeed born in Kazdel, but now he is an Ursus, and the Patriot still insists on this, and has never said that he is a Kazdel.

In this huge world of Terra, there are only two types of people who can make a patriot feel ashamed in this world, one is the royal family of Ursus, and the other is his relatives.

The former is Nicholas, the only surviving prince in the direct lineage of the Ursas royal family, and the current emperor of Ursas.

"I want to hear your answer."

Nicholas' voice roared in the patriot's ears like a thunder that resounded in the sky, making the current patriots finally understand why Adam would betray him. Herag's persuasion would definitely not work, but what about His Majesty the Emperor?What about recruiting by His Majesty the Emperor himself?The Patriots felt it was normal for Adam to accept.

It has to be accepted, isn't it?Not for myself, but also for their guerrillas, I have to accept it.

Because from the very beginning when Nicholas came here, their guerrillas were doomed to be defeated. No matter how elite their guerrillas were, how could they be the opponents of Nicholas' imperial army? In the end, the one who killed their 400 elite soldiers was nothing The foreign special forces must be Nikolai's forbidden army, and they did not kill the elite soldiers, otherwise the patriots concluded that Adam would not choose to trust Nikolai.

"..."

Remaining silent, just staring at Nicholas, the patriot did not say a word, their respective gazes crossed each other in the air, and the atmosphere was dead silent.

The biochemical white mist that can hypnotize people's nerves still surrounds the barracks and floats around Nicholas and the patriots.

"I... don't think... you... will accept us."

After a long while, he replied in a soft voice. The patriot gave his own answer. He didn't know how to address Nicholas, whether to address him as the emperor or His Majesty. , It is extremely contradictory to the identity standing here now.

"You came here...it means...you must have paid attention to the integration movement...but we will not...start on our own kind, the seeds of hatred...have sprouted and grown...you didn't have time...to stop it, and I...haven't... can't be suppressed."

However, according to the move of Nicholas himself, how could the patriots fail to figure out Nicholas' other intentions? He spoke heavily, and the topic of the patriots directly talked about the integration movement. He is a cadre of the integration movement and an insider in the fight against the infected, talking to Nikolai about the situation of the infected.

"So, you should understand... that there is no point in persuading us to surrender. We... can't be your sharp sword. We are just a burden to you."

Knowing that Nicholas could easily kill any of them present, but the old man still insisted on refusing, which can be called an alternative, and wanted to hear how Nicholas would answer, and wanted to hear how Nicholas recruited them. Motivation, I don't know what Nicholas's intentions are so painstakingly done.

There is even the hope that the emperor Nicholas will untie his knots, untie his doubts, and lead him to move forward like Herag.

Although, the patriots did not have much hope for the young emperor Nicholas.

But Nicholas didn't mind the stubbornness of the patriots.

The reason is very clear. Nicholas knows that his information is not equal to that of the Patriots. He knows that Tallulah wants to betray the integration movement. The Lovely Patriots don’t know it. Tallulah is still an irreplaceable leader of the infected, and has the qualifications to lead the future of the infected. In contrast, it is only natural to have a grudge against him, the emperor of Ursas.

He will reveal part of the truth, but Nicholas knows that it is undoubtedly not the time to say it, it will not be able to describe it without spending half an hour, and he does not have the extra time to spend with the Patriots This delay, Chuxue is still hostile to Shuangxing, he must rush there in time.

After all, he is here to convince the patriots, not to explain anything to the patriots.

This goal, Nicholas did not forget.

"Whether I will accept you or not is my decision, not yours."

Then, looking at the patriot with a solemn expression, Nicholas said expressionlessly.

"How deep the flames of hatred of the infected are spreading now, I know very well whether you are willing to fight for me, and I will not force you either. You will witness with your own eyes whether what I will do is right or wrong. Yes, you can just do what you want, no, you can also judge for yourself whether I am worthy of your trust or not."

The answer sounds very serious, but it is also full of tolerance. The real choice is given to the patriots and guerrillas. Nicholas is willing, and the patriots and guerrillas who have basically lost their ability to resist can be wiped out on the spot. This is the status quo that everyone can see.

"There are things you don't know yet, and you can keep your current views, but patriots, what I want you to know now is that I don't want this seed of hatred to flourish, it has burned enough It’s prosperous enough, but, at least in my eyes, it hasn’t burned you, or the guerrillas you lead.”

Unequal status, but Nicholas gave patriots and guerrillas equal steps, and even answered the questions of patriots one by one, without missing a single detail, talking to patriots from the bottom of his heart, saying The answer that the patriots have always wanted in their minds.

"It's meaningless to settle down in the past. If you don't pay attention to the present and look to the future, Bozhuoskati, what can you change, what can you do? Like staying in the snowy mountains with your daughter now, or Go back to the integration movement and continue to struggle with your thoughts that you have no expectations? You are not a stubborn person, I know."

An answer that Tallulah didn't tell him, pursuing the future instead of reminiscing about the past answer, instead of obsessing over the past hatred, why not find a way to further promote the implementation of policies that are beneficial to the infected through the integration movement, Tallulah The patriots don't know what they want, but the patriots naturally know whether Tallulah's actions are right or wrong.

"You are just a person who doesn't like to think, but forces yourself to think, so you are usually more realistic. If you don't disappoint Tallulah and entrust yourself to Tallulah, how can you be willing to return to your daughter for your daughter? Isn't it like this on the snowy field, Bodroskaty?"

To put it bluntly, he never trusted Tallulah, the only descendant of Kosche, who would definitely devour all the people around him like Kosiche. He had thought about it when Tallulah first came to the snow field. If it wasn't for Frost Star's "kind words" to him at that time, it would be possible for Patriot to know that Tallulah is dead now.

And unfortunately, through Tallulah's willingness to indulge the two captains, Red Knife and Mephisto, regardless of the risk of intensification of the integration movement's internal thinking, the Patriots also discovered that Tallulah had other plans for the integration movement, and did not take the infected The future is really on his mind, but he lacks investigation and evidence, and he doesn't know what Tallulah wants to do, and what he wants to use the integration movement to do.

Nicholas' words, to a certain extent, really hit the heart of the patriots, arousing the patriots' uneasiness and suspicion of Tallulah, and their thoughts became more and more entangled. They didn't know what to do, and they didn't know whether to trust her. The 'changed' Tallulah still has to trust the 'changed' Nicholas.

The smarter people tend to think more and worry more.

At least, in the eyes of Nicholas, the patriots are not idiots.

"You and your warriors, go home, Bodroskati."

Then, this remark of Nicholas shocked the hearts of the patriots and guerrillas more and more.

"I'm sorry about your son, I really can't do anything for him, but I will not forget his name, and I will remember his deeds in the Hall of Martyrs for future generations to respect, your wife , have been waiting for you, Bodroskati, and your subordinates too, I did not embarrass their families, they are still living in peace, I restore all their legal rights."

Led by his relatives, he quietly attacked and awakened the guerrillas and patriots to be homesick. They couldn't help but show a moved expression, especially the patriots, thinking that his guilty wife was still alive, and he was still bearing the burden of bereavement alone. Waiting for the pain, suddenly a huge wave of waves rolled up in my heart, completely flustered.

"Surrender...Boss, it really doesn't make sense to continue."

Seeing the melancholy faces of the guerrillas and the silent reaction of the patriots, Adam, who had been silent all this time, suddenly walked to the side of the patriots and knelt down on his knees.

"I know you are still thinking about your brothers, afraid that His Majesty will take advantage of us, but ah, boss, the brothers have always been thinking about you leading us here, your physical condition is getting worse day by day, always Looking at the picture of my son and wife crying in the room, these brothers and young ladies know it too!"

Crying sadly, expressing the last worry of the patriots, and expressing the importance of the patriots personally, the patriots have always cared for them, how could they not know how painful and unbearable the patriots have been in the past few years, ahead, Finally, there was a chance to end it. Adam really didn't want the Patriots to continue, and he insisted on leading the guerrillas to death.
