97 Flame Project, Elites “Run” First!
After leaving the principal’s office, Lin Sen walked alone on an ancient path illuminated by lanterns. He rubbed his chin and pondered.
Principal Zhong Zhiren finally agreed to arrange a trial for him in the dimensional world so that he could quickly increase his strength.
However, there was also one condition.
When Lin Sen became the true number one in the Tai Yi Academy and obtained the recognition of everyone, regardless of whether it was through martial strength or other methods, as long as they admitted that Lin Sen was stronger than them, Lin Sen would be able to obtain the resources promised by the Principal.
The reason why this mission was given, as justified by Principal Zhong Zhiren, was that he wanted Lin Sen to quickly integrate into the student body of the Tai Yi Academy and “get along” with them in terms of interpersonal relationships and physically.
In addition, he even told Lin Sen mysteriously——
“Letting you experience the life of a normal cadet at ease and develop your mind is not something I thought up with a pat on the head. Instead, it is a conjecture that a genius that even I consider myself inferior to is practicing.
“As long as you continue to carry out the agreement with me, the two of you will meet sooner or later. If you can obtain his approval, I’ll consider you to have fulfilled the agreement in advance.”
Lin Sen stopped in his tracks.
He looked up at the night sky and sighed helplessly.
“Other than me, is there another genius who can make the Principal of the number one academy in Xia Country admit that he’s inferior?
“From the sound of it, he’s probably not someone easy to deal with.
“I hope this agreement can be completed quickly. Otherwise, I might as well bring Sister and the others to other factions who are willing to cooperate with me.”
He chose to continue deeper into human society because he was still very weak and needed to rely on this behemoth.
He chose the Tai Yi Academy because he had received an invitation from the Principal of the Tai Yi Academy. This was a good reason.
Moreover, in the crisis of the Blood God, although all the factions with the ability to help were secretly watching, only Zhong Zhiren was willing to take the risk and give up an extremely precious item to help the Canaan Safe Zone that had been targeted by the gods.
Out of his good impression of those with noble personalities, Lin Sen chose to enter the Tai Yi Academy.
Otherwise, given the strength he had displayed and his future potential, there would be a lot of factions begging him to join them.
Of course, there were also many items and skills to enslave combat professionals in this world. Lin Sen was also worried that the other forces with unknown backgrounds had ill intentions. freewe(b)novel.com
“Forget it. I’ll give it a try tomorrow. If it doesn’t work, I’ll look for other factions.” freewebnove(l)
Lin Sen shrugged and quickened his pace towards Senior Sister Yueya’s residence.
The moonlight was lonely.
The person in the Principal’s office suddenly disappeared. When he appeared, he was already at the top of the building. Looking at Lin Sen’s departing back, he sighed.
“Do you trust him that much?”
“If he really completes the agreement with you, do you really plan to feed all the resources of the Tai Yi Academy to him?”
A breeze blew past.
Another small figure, who was pitch-black and no taller than an ordinary person’s shoulder, landed behind the Principal.
One could not tell whether this ethereal voice was male or female. Its tone was complicated.
“You have to know that you have already spent a lot of favors to resist the pressure from the higher-ups for him. If this guy doesn’t appreciate it or simply eat up all those precious mutated beast dimensions before leaving the Tai Yi Academy, your academy will be crippled.”
“So what?”
Zhong Zhiren’s expression did not change as he asked with a smile,
“As long as he is determined to fight for humanity and contribute to it, what’s not worth about him taking over my meager resources and connections?”
“…As expected of an answer from a fanatic like you. In a sense, you’re also worthy of being that person’s disciple.”
The small figure tilted its head and said coldly,
“But, heh.
“Have you ever thought about whether the humans and human civilization you’re talking about are on the foolish people born, bred and died on this soil, or on the human elites at the peak of the group in all aspects who have inherited the essence and legacy of the civilization?
“Since it’s all for humanity.
“Wouldn’t sacrificing the former allow the latter to safely survive the difficulties and continue human civilization be another more efficient and successful choice?
“Let Lin Sen join us and implement the Vanguard Project to protect the light of humanity. Only then are we truly protecting human civilization.”
“…Is that what you think?”
When Zhong Zhiren heard this, his brows furrowed tightly. He turned around and looked at the person in front of him. His voice was tight.
“Is this what you think, or what those people up there think?”
“It’s what they think, and also what I think.”
The petite figure did not retreat, as if it was arguing with Zhong Zhiren.
“Instead of saving the entire huge and bloated human race and ultimately destroying the entire civilization, it’s better to let the elites escape with the legacy and civilization of humanity and head to another world to breed to a new human civilization.
“I’m here to give you an ultimatum.
“The Flame Project and the Vanguard Project have been activated. The higher-ups have mobilized almost all their personnel and are advancing one after another for these two projects.
“Lin Sen is the best candidate for the Vanguard Project. He has to quickly increase his strength and implant his soldier personality, strengthen his will, and protect the elites. He can’t stay in your academy and nurture personality and determination that will be washed away sooner or later to play house with you!”
“You guys… are running a dictatorship!” Zhong Zhiren glared as he said through gritted teeth,
“Abandoning most of the common people? Do you think I don’t know how much mutated beasts and heretic gods yearn for the flesh and blood of us humans? You’re betraying your compatriots in exchange for your survival!
“No one can decide the life and death of others at will, especially in the name of sacrifice!”
“This is a necessary sacrifice!” the petite figure yelled.
“You!!”
Zhong Zhiren’s chest heaved violently. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the figure, as if he had reacquainted himself with this “friend” of many years.
...
After a while, he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.
“These people claim that they want to continue the human civilization, but in the end, it’s all of them who will benefit. From the beginning to the end, I haven’t seen them give anything to humans. They’re really good at knocking on bones and sucking marrow and being parasitic leeches.
“Go back and tell your masters that Lin Sen and the entire human civilization are not tools for them to satisfy their own selfish desires!
“If you continue to carry out your dirty and hypocritical plan in my academy, I, Zhong Zhiren, will expose all your dirty things to the public even if I have to give up my life!”
“At that point, we’ll see if human civilization is willing to sacrifice themselves to be poisoned!
“Zhong Zhiren… you’ve been possessed!”
The petite figure’s breath caught in his throat,
“There has never been fairness in this world. The strong prey on the weak. The strong are respected!
“If they refuse to be sacrificed, we’ll use force to help them do that. If you really do this, you’ll only embarrass everyone!”
