Chief Instructor Lin Huiyong was not speaking this for the first time. Every Skuru prisoner of war would subtly come into contact with this idea after being taken to the POW camp.
After repeated encounters, they gradually began to accept this idea.
In the past, the Skurus treated Blue Star Humans as if they were the wild beasts of a savage continent, killing them without any psychological burden.
But as they gradually got to know the Blue Star Humans, they discovered that they bore similarities to the Skurus.
While they were all human beings, their mentalities did not differ significantly, which evoked empathy towards humans in them.
...
Of course, empathy is not a critical factor.
The real reason they don’t wish to go to war is – Blue Star Humans are powerful.
Prime Minister Cao Cao has already reached the eighth level peak; Su Yu will surely advance to the eighth level; Yang Jian, too, will inevitably regain his eighth level strength eventually.
Apart from these, Blue Star has many level five to six monks and players.
As soon as the war breaks out, the majority of them will become cannon fodder, destined to die on the battlefield.
Naturally, as soldiers, they did not want to sacrifice themselves senselessly; this became their main reason to resist the war.
The seventh level strongman, Haidun Rieyang, glanced at his compatriots in the square, turned his head to Chief Instructor Lin Huiyong and said, “You’re right, Instructor Lin, if the decisive battle leads to a fight to the death, many from both sides will die.
When I return, I will report this to His Majesty and carefully consider whether to pursue this war.”
“Many thanks to you all,” Chief Instructor Lin Huiyong saluted all the Skuru prisoners in the room. “I hope all of you can convey our thoughts to the public when you return and oppose war, or else die pitifully on the battlefield five months from now.”
…
After the assembly on the training ground concluded, Lan Bo returned to his quarters (cell) heavy-hearted.
The departure was tomorrow, so he had to make some preparations beforehand.
However, at this point, his good friend, Grant, came by his side, looked at him with concern, and patted his shoulder, “Lan Bo, I suggest you hide once we return home, remain incognito in other countries; otherwise, ‘Glare’ will never leave you alone!”
“Sigh, that’s what I thought, but escaping from ‘Glare’ is easier said than done.” Lan Bo felt disheartened.
But he did not dwell on this issue too much; instead, he diverted the topic, “Let’s talk about you, Grant. What are you planning to do after we return?”
“Well…the first thing that comes to mind is finding a way to leave the Expeditionary Army, or at least leaving the frontline. I don’t want to be cannon fodder in the decisive battle,” Grant and Lan Bo walked shoulder to shoulder, sharing similar sentiments.
“What do you think about what Chief Instructor Lin Huiyong said?”
“What else can I think?” Grant lowered his voice and said, “Maybe we can help them spread their message if it doesn’t jeopardize our safety, after all, Blue Star Humans have treated us well and we owe them.
However, if ‘Glare’ came knocking as soon as we opened our mouths, it is better to keep our mouths shut.”
“You’re right.” Lan Bo nodded.
This might be the shared sentiment of most of the Skuru prisoners. No matter what, they all prioritized their own safety above all else.
…
Last night was a sleepless night for Lan Bo; he did not sleep at all.
In fact, Skurus are not very different from humans, especially those of their rank. Not sleeping at night would not make them feel tired; sleep was not absolutely necessary.
At nine o’clock the next morning, he received the assembly notification.
At the camp’s square, they boarded a vaguely familiar transport hover vehicle, headed towards Mount Fuji in the northeast direction.
Lan Bo and the other sixth-rank prisoners were the first batch of prisoners sent to Spring Eye at Mount Fuji.
However, it wasn’t until he boarded the hover vehicle and observed the familiar interior decorations that Lan Bo suddenly realized, “Isn’t this our Raging Sun Empire’s R47 troop transport vehicle? How did it end up in the hands of Blue Star Humans?”
Grant, who was sitting next to him, took a look at the vehicle’s interior and was surprised, “My God, it is indeed our Raging Sun Empire’s military hover vehicle! How did it get here?”
“This is truly devastating! I didn’t know they used vehicles like ours.”
But there was something even more surprising waiting for them.
The interior of the hover vehicle was spacious and bright, especially this super large hover vehicle. The glass windows on the second floor were floor-to-ceiling.
Looking outside, they could see a total of 20 hover vehicles of the exact same model moving in parallel!
“Did the Blue Star Humans move our military warehouse here?”
“Most likely. Else, where could they get so many troop transport hover vehicles?”
“It’s a good thing my brother Langqi didn’t see this, who knows what his reaction would’ve been.”
“I’m afraid he probably already saw it? After all, the Expeditionary Army Headquarters has all-round surveillance on Blue Star.”
With exclamations from the prisoners, the troop transport hover vehicle continued to fly towards Mount Fuji.
Two and a half hours later, the 20 hover vehicles landed at the foot of Mount Fuji.
When they got out of the vehicle, they immediately saw more than 10 Blue Star monks led by Prime Minister Cao Cao.
Seeing the prisoners safely arrive, Prime Minister Cao Cao looked towards the top of the mountain and laughingly said in the Skuru language, “Su Yu, my friend, the prisoners have successfully arrived. Now you can ask the Skuru to bring out the gold.”
“Understood!” Su Yu at the top of the mountain immediately responded and looked at Langqi with a smile, “The people have arrived. Now it’s time to bring out the gold, isn’t it?”
“Okay.” Seeing the high-level prisoners at the foot of the mountain, especially his elder brother and Haidun Rieyang, he immediately let out a sigh of relief.
He opened his Space Ring, took out several boxes of gold bricks from inside, and threw them outside Spring Eye.
However, he made sure to keep some of the gold and only threw out 50% of it initially.

“This is the first batch of gold, approximately 55 tons. Once all the prisoners enter Spring Eye, I’ll throw the remaining gold to you.”
“As you wish.” Su Yu nodded indifferently.
Lan Bo, and the other prisoners were escorted into Spring Eye by Prime Minister Cao Cao personally, and as they were about to enter Spring Eye, they used magic to restore their control over the spiritual energy within their bodies.
As soon as Lan Bo entered, he saw a blue figure rush towards him. It was his brother, Langqi!
“Brother, how’s life on Blue Star? Did the Blue Star Humans treat you badly?” Langqi looked up and down at his elder brother worriedly.
“Well, that’s not the case. Blue Star Humans tend to treat prisoners well.” Lan Bo told the truth,” Furthermore, I was in Blue Star’s POW camp and they treated my injuries.”
“It’s probably because the Blue Star Humans are scared of us, that’s why they didn’t dare to abuse you.” Langqi casually came up with what seemed to be a plausible explanation:
“But you shouldn’t say things like this in the future. Many media outlets will be here soon. You must say that you were humiliated and abused on Blue Star, do you understand?”
