Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 903 - 902: Bitter Smile
Jiang Cheng, a wanderer of the universe, had some knowledge of the Sek Planet. The population of this planet was not large, whether due to their inherent reasons or the result of constant fighting, Jiang Cheng judged that their birth rate was naturally low, coupled with the relentless battles.
Fighting was like a meat grinder that operated nonstop, throwing living people inside and churning out nothing but minced flesh. It was ruthless and efficient, seemingly insatiable, with an enormous appetite that was hard to satisfy.
However, some people loved this machine. Their genes carried brutal and bloody elements, they hated peaceful lives, they loathed existence, and they were obsessed with activating this machine, making it run continuously. Only when they saw lives being thrown into it did they feel satisfied; it was a pathological mindset. Unfortunately, people with such a mindset were not limited to the Water Ball but existed on other planets as well!
These people were the cancer of the planet! The nemesis of those who loved peaceful lives!
Without eradicating them, people would never find peace, never find happiness!
The Shi Family on the Sek Planet were just such people. They continually instigated fights, taking pleasure in eliminating their opponents. In their eyes, life was worthless, and trampling on life and its dignity was their source of joy. Without killing, their lives lost meaning; killing was their sole reason for existence! They did not engage in production, using destruction as their goal, sustaining their fights through looting, constantly replenishing themselves and then seeking the next target. In this process, ordinary unarmed people were the first to suffer, their lives trampled, their production ceased, driven from their homes into exile.
Jiang Cheng was not a compassionate person. Sometimes he was even indifferent and cold-blooded, but he did not enjoy killing or destruction; he still respected life, not just human life, but other species as well. He liked seeing life thriving and people living peacefully and quietly, it made him feel good.
And when someone tried to destroy that goodness, Jiang Cheng would unhesitatingly stand up to stop them. Jiang Cheng believed this was the mission of the strong, including himself. When the destruction of goodness was severe, Jiang Cheng's retaliation would also be great, even surpassing the destroyers. Jiang Cheng believed that when they wielded their destructive blades, they should understand the consequences for themselves.
The Ke Planet was such a chaotic, impoverished place where life received no protection.
Such a planet actually joined a fighting collaboration against the Water Ball—truly an irony. Perhaps they hoped to gain more advanced weapons for faster killing this way.
Now, it seemed that Jiang Cheng's approach on the Sek Planet was correct. You can't reason with the unreasonable; when they exalt violence, you must confront them with force. If they delight in destruction, you must counter with destruction, annihilate everything they cherish!
Jiang Cheng respected rules, but he wasn't dogmatic. When rules were unfair, he would stand up first, challenge them, and break them!
This was Jiang Cheng's creed!
Standing on the hillside, Jiang Cheng looked down at the beautiful scenery before him, unable to help his myriad thoughts.
On the fourth day, a mysterious guest arrived at Jiang Cheng's location. His attire was indistinguishable from an ordinary Sek Planet inhabitant until he removed his mask, revealing his true identity; he was the adjutant.
This adjutant indeed had some sense. Upon returning, he gathered leaders of various factions, telling them their bosses were dead, not from fighting, but from a sinister plot. During the talks with the alien, that insidious alien had planted explosives at the negotiation site, blowing up their bosses—this was true, but the adjutant switched around the actors' positions. He cried for revenge, claiming he had tracked the enemy's movements after surviving the explosion and secretly uncovered their position, urging everyone to attack when those aliens were unprepared.
Whoever killed the most would be promoted to leader—a win-win situation, satisfying their desire for killing and reaping tangible benefits.
Anyone who refused to go, the adjutant would glare at them with bloodshot eyes and muscles bulging, indicating that whoever backed out would become a public enemy, destined for elimination first.
Though there were other details, Jiang Cheng didn't inquire further.
The adjutant said that the day after tomorrow, he would bring everyone he could gather to the location Jiang Cheng designated, certainly not here—what if the artillery fire indiscriminately hit the civilians?
However, he also promised to be present at that time. He looked at Jiang Cheng with pitiful eyes, as the others didn't fully trust him, insisting the adjutant be present.
Jiang Cheng reassured him, promising to ensure his safety.
Seeing the adjutant's skepticism, Jiang Cheng didn't bother to engage with him further, instead discussing other matters. Frankly, Jiang Cheng hadn't spoken for a while; the locals could only speak their dialects, making communication with them impossible.
He asked the adjutant why he was the only one among the people he encountered who could speak the universal language of the universe.
The adjutant offered a bitter smile.
His father was a merchant who once took him to the Ahank Planet. There, the adjutant was captivated by Ashek Planet's civilization and didn't want to return to the Ke Planet. At that time, the Sek Planet was still relatively stable, although less advanced than Ashek's civilization; his father agreed, so he stayed on Ashek Planet.
Jiang Cheng looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
Sometimes, it was nice to have someone to chat with.
Jiang Cheng awaited the adjutant's arrival, who promised to lead all the Long Warriors he could gather. After discussing everything, Jiang Cheng conversed with the adjutant about his matters.
The Ashek Planet's civilization was highly advanced, making the adjutant reluctant to leave and, in fact, he stayed, living happily and learning, mastering the universal language during that time.
The adjutant grew up on Ashek Planet while the situation on Sek Planet became increasingly tumultuous. Although Ashek Planet had attempted mediations, tranquility never lasted long before fighting flared up again. After several cycles of this, Ashek Planet lost interest in Sek Planet; it was, after all, a small planet with low civilization and no resources. "We told you not to fight, but you insisted; fine, go ahead, it's not our concern."
