Chapter 172: The Heavenly Dragon Resistance Gathering Party
The background noise gradually died down, and Sila’s burdenso two conversations came to an endWhen he looked for the source, he realised that the one who organized this party had arrived
Lone Wolf stepped up onto the stage, wearing brouxia clothing with e party that everyone had been waiting for was about to start
Lone Wolf swept his gaze across the attendants, before looking at the script Hermit and Ratri prepared for himHowever, he shook his head and cruon Resistance gathering partyIt’s not in et to the pointThe reason e are here today is clearThe Heavenly Dragon Guild is expanding its influence and bullying peopleAlone, we are weak, but together, there will be nothing that we can’t doSo, let’s join forces and oppose the Heavenly Dragon Guild, oppose Montra!”
Naturally, everybody already knew the purpose of this gathering partyHowever, they didn’t expect Lone Wolf to suddenly cut to the chase without trying to set the e, a man dressed like a scholar raised his hand and stood up“My na what you said, may I ask you a question?”
“Brother Pachee, your question is welcomedPlease feel free to ask”
“In uildEven if we join forces, there is no guarantee that we can win against themMay I ask what makes you, Sir Lone Wolf, confident that you in? The Heavenly Dragon Guild’s chance of winning is higher and sub to them will yield us more monetary benefitsOn what basis do you think we should join your Victorious Wolves Sect rather than their guild?”
“First things first, BrotherYou need to understand that we are not asking you to join the Victorious Wolves SectWhat we are going to do is form an allianceAll of us will still have the freedo we see fitOnly, ill direct our weapons at our coon Guild”
“Oh, so it’sHowever, Sir Lone Wolf, you still didn’t tell us what is it that can ensure our victory if ere to form an alliance”
“I can just tell you in one wordThe thing we have that on Guild is Virtue!”
Lone Wolf declared it without hesitation, and Beluga slaoodthemselves
Another man stood up and raised his point“We want a ible! And it isn’t helpful in battles”
There werewith thewords, the party ht just end here and now
Lone Wolf swept his eyes across the yard and waited until silence fell oncevoice
“Who told you that virtue is not useful? Even Sun Tzu’s ‘The Art of War’ states that the most important factor in war is virtue! One should treat people with benevolence, justice, and righteousness! The Heavenly Dragon Guild lacks this very core elehty they are, they will, one day, perish!+”
Listening to such words, Asura couldn’t help but become interestedHe turned to ask for Sebastian’s opinion, as the s them
“Virtue is necessary for battles? Really? This is the first time I have heard thisDid you already know this, Sebastian?”
Sebastian nodded
“Although people say virtue is i in wartimeWars are a matter of brutality and crueltyKill or be killedA clash of opinionsVirtue is, in fact, only so that pushes soldiers forwardYou can say that it’s a sort of goalIf soldiers fight while thinking that what they are doing is for a noble cause, they think they are heroesOn the other hand, without it, they would only be mere banditsThere is a difference in oal, and that greatly affects the aoalUlti factor that drives people to strive for victory”
“Oh, I see,” replied Asura
Yet, below the stage, another ible!”
Lone Wolf replied, “That’s the reason we are all here todayTrue, virtue without strength may be uselessBut, with all of our forces coon Guild can’t stand a chance against us all”
Pachee argued again, “The Heavenly Dragon Guild has the Magic Emperor Montra, the Two Monarchs that are on par with the Four Eon WarlordsI even heard a rumor that the Shadow Emperor Zero has joined themHow can we possibly stand up to them?”
“First of all, about Zero, I can confirm that ruon GuildThe Blue Pigeon Guild researched it and assures us of its validity”
The ruon Guild wasn’t a secretHowever, given their past conflicts, people couldn’t bring theed with Lone Wolf’s wordsWith both the Blue Pigeon Guild and Lone Wolf’s confirmation, it was revealed that the unbelievable rumor was, in fact, the truth
Pachee continued, “That’s worse for us! How can we fight the Heavenly Dragon Guild at this rate? They also have a large-scale army under them, ready to mobilize”
“The answer is siiesThe countermeasure is our unity! We will join forces, share information, collaborate, train with each other, and coh for us to becoa stood up“Excellent! After hearing Lone Wolf, we, the Mountain Thieves League decide to fight with you!”
Beluga’s declaration echoed throughout the party
Nednapha pushed her guild leader down and whispered, “You spoke too soon, BossAt the very least, we should wait and see what benefits our guild will get froa shook his head“If we only focus on the benefits, how are we any different froon Guild? Even if this deal nets us a loss, we are still inHaving a chance to do soa shared his thoughts without lowering his voiceAs a result, everybody could hear him clearlySila felt that this person was direct and blunt, yet sincere
Hearing that kind of reasoning, Nednapha stopped arguingWith Beluga’s words, if she still insisted, wouldn’t that iarded virtue?
Nevertheless, what everyone was seeking wasn’t soue concept like a virtueIndeed, everyone here disliked the Heavenly Dragon Guild in some wayHowever, they also wanted a chance for victoryThere would be no point in joining the losing side of the battle
“We still need more concrete proof that we can win, or at least a plan”
“In that case, I can honestly tell you that, aside for virtue, we also possess what the Heavenly Dragon Guild hasRegarding funds, we got a lot froies, we have many skilled people in our teamAnd if we all form an alliance, ill not have to worry about their armyOur coon Guild’sEven better, our alliance’s e regarding flexibility when”
The people down below him turned to discuss this with each other, and Lone Wolf remained silent so they didn’t feel pressured
“You can decide for yourselvesJoin us if you want, but on’t ever force youToday, we, the Victorious Wolves Sect, will just treat you all to aitEven if you decide not to join us, your belly will at least be full,” Lone Wolf said jokingly before going to the main table
Ratri and Hermit immediately approached him
“Leader, why didn’t you stick to the script? That script was a persuasive speech that Ratri and I tried hard to come up withIt mentions the benefits that we can share with them within our tolerance level,” asked Herroupsus when the opposite side agrees to give them moreThis is way betterI want people to join us because of their virtue”
Beluga interrupted“Don’t worry, guysEven if our alliance only consists of the Victorious Wolves Sect and the Mountain Thieves League, we can still win against the Heavenly Dragon Guild”
Despite Beluga stating this with confidence, everyone knew that he, too, should feel restless inside
Sila stood up“hello, Mister Lone WolfIt’s been a while”
“Hey, SilaYou have gotten a lot stronger since the last time we spoke, it seems”
