Volume 2 Ghost Army Chapter 257: Difficult Challenge
"Me? Haha, you think too highly of me. Since you see the crisis, why don't you look for someone else with better abilities?" Li Jiu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Although Li Jiu was deeply touched by Mad Wolf's words and also deeply aware of the tribe's survival crisis, he asked himself if he could shoulder such a heavy responsibility now.
Apart from anything else, he hasn't even dealt with a small Blood Wolf Mercenary Group yet, not to mention that behind the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group is Donna's family, a force that he cannot afford to provoke at the moment.
And if compared with the entire alliance government, even Donna's family is probably just an ant-like existence...
It is conceivable that with his current strength, if he were to go against the entire alliance government, it would be like an ant fighting a dinosaur.
As for the future... that's even more uncertain. After all, as a mercenary, Li Jiu can't even guarantee whether he can survive the next mission.
Therefore, how can I shoulder such a heavy responsibility?
"Haha, you misunderstood. I don't mean for you to take on this important task right now. At the same time, I don't have the right to represent the entire Chinese race and let you lead us." Mad Wolf smiled and shook his head, then he stopped smiling and said solemnly: "I just said that as Chinese men, after knowing the current situation of our race, you and I have the responsibility to fight for this goal! Because this matter is not only related to the future of our Chinese race, but also closely related to our own interests."
"As for finding other people with stronger abilities, I have naturally been doing that over the years." Mad Wolf paused for a moment and continued, "However, among the Huaxia people I know, you are the only one with the greatest hope..."
Mad Wolf looked at Li Jiu with an unwavering gaze.
"Oh? Why are you so sure?" Li Jiu was slightly surprised and asked curiously.
"The reason is very simple, because you are gifted and an awakened one among the clone warriors." Mad Wolf smiled slightly and said with certainty: "And among the awakened ones, your ability is extremely rare, soul control. It is said that it is a powerful ability with infinite possibilities... In addition, the growth rate you have shown in this period is far beyond that of ordinary people... So, I think that among the Chinese people I can contact, you are the only one with the greatest hope..."
After hearing this, Li Jiu fell silent, with thoughts surging in his mind.
Fighting to revive China?
This is indeed a grand goal, but also a daunting challenge!
But, isn't this what a passionate man pursues? !
Especially for a young man like Li Jiu who has extremely strong national sentiments, he is extremely concerned about the honor and disgrace of the entire ethnic group. The crisis that Mad Wolf mentioned is no longer just a matter of ethnic honor and disgrace, but an extremely serious crisis of ethnic survival!
At the same time, he also understood the truth that "when the nest is overturned, no eggs will remain intact."
Now it seems that if he wants to fight for a happy future for himself and Kaqi, he must not only help the Alliance fight against the Defender Empire, but also fight for an equal right to survive for the entire Chinese ethnic group in the Alliance!
Therefore, after listening to Mad Wolf's narration, Li Jiu had already accepted this goal in his heart.
"Is this the reason why you didn't attack me today?" After pondering for a moment, Li Jiu looked at Mad Wolf and said expressionlessly.
"Yes, that's the reason." Mad Wolf nodded, looking serious. "Since I realized this crisis, I have never attacked any Chinese people again. Of course, this requires the elimination of some scum among them. As for coming to assassinate you today, it is to see if your performance today can satisfy me..."
"Oh? Haha, so my performance is okay?" Li Jiu smiled indifferently.
"Haha, it's okay." Mad Wolf also smiled. "If the strength you showed today is still the same as that in the gambling battle, or if you are indifferent to the interests of the entire tribe, then in order for me to continue to stay in the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group and fight for the cause of the tribe with peace of mind, I may have to kill you. But now it seems that I was not wrong, you are indeed a guy worth looking forward to."
"In addition, I hope that if you have conflicts with other Chinese people in the future, unless you have any deep hatred with them, you should try to give them some leeway... At the same time, you should also let them realize the survival crisis of the ethnic group. Because the goal of revitalizing the entire ethnic group cannot be achieved by the strength of the two of us alone, and all members of the tribe must unite." Mad Wolf added and emphasized.
Li Jiu nodded silently with a smile on his face. At the same time, he took out a Sabre brand cigarette from his pocket, took out one, handed it to Mad Wolf, and smiled and said, "Want to smoke?"
"Thanks, I don't smoke often." Crazy Wolf was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. He didn't expect that Li Jiu was still in the mood to smoke at this time.
"Haha, if you don't smoke often, then you smoke." Li Jiu smiled calmly and threw the cigarette directly to Mad Wolf, "You'd better smoke one now..."
Mad Wolf immediately took the cigarette in front of him, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he took out a lighter from his body, put the cigarette in his mouth and lit it.
"If I need your help in my future struggle to revive my tribe, would you be willing to help me?" Li Jiu asked with a smile as he watched Mad Wolf smoke a cigarette.
“Hu…” Mad Wolf exhaled a thick puff of white smoke, and said with a curled mouth: “Haha, if it is for this goal, then I, Mad Wolf, will go through fire and water without hesitation!”
"Very good!" Li Jiu's expression suddenly changed and he nodded indifferently.
"Bang!" Immediately afterwards, a gunshot sounded.
"Ah!...You..." As the gunshots rang out, Mad Wolf screamed in pain and felt a sharp pain in his right leg. He immediately knelt down and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground. Then he looked at Li Jiu with shock and anger.
At this moment, Li Jiu was holding the limited edition Desert Eagle with an expressionless face, pointing the muzzle at Mad Wolf, and said with a smile: "Having a cigarette will help relieve the pain."
Just now, Li Jiu suddenly attacked and shot the Mad Wolf in the right leg.
"You...how could you still have bullets? And why did you do this..." Mad Wolf stared at Li Jiu and asked in disbelief. He felt that the pain in his heart was more painful than the gunshot wound on his leg...
Could it be that I had misjudged him? Was Li Jiu not as righteous as I thought? Was he just a villain who looked honest on the surface but was actually sinister on the inside?
Also, why is there still bullets in his gun?!
