After a long time, Li Meng opened his eyes and smiled.
With a slight thought, the carbon pen on the table not far away flew toward Li Meng.
Under Li Meng's control, the carbon pen flew around him.
"I didn't expect my mind to undergo a mutation, allowing me to obtain the ability to control objects.
This way, they wouldn't have to worry about hurting their own people in the future.”
Thinking of how he had killed the captain of the guards with a single shot, Li Meng felt a wave of disappointment.
If he could obtain this ability in advance, perhaps that captain would not have died.
"Li Meng, come quickly, Uncle Zhong is awake!”
While Li Meng was still blaming himself, he heard Lü Han's laughter.
He sorted out his emotions and hurried back to the ward. At this time, Uncle Zhong had already stood up and leaned against the wall with Lu Han's help.
Uncle Zhong was also stunned when he saw Li Meng, but he immediately remembered.
"I remember you. You were the one who killed that Ba Ling. You should be the one who saved me, right?”
"Thank you for saving my life.”
Uncle Zhong wasn't stupid. He immediately guessed that he was saved by Li Meng.
Li Meng nodded and accepted his thanks.
"How are you feeling?"
"I won't die. Oh right, how are the students in the school? Little friend, have you killed all the E'Ling in the school?”
Uncle Zhong was still thinking about the students.
"They are safe.
Although I have already gotten people to eliminate the evil forces in the school, I estimate that their casualties are not few.”
Uncle Zhong heaved a sigh of relief." That's good, that's good."
Little friend, what's the situation in Nan Ning City now?”
"Not good. There are too many yaomo invading this time.
On my way to school, there were humans possessed by Er Ling everywhere. There were very few survivors.
I only came to Nan Ning First High School to save Xiaoxiao. As for the others, I don't have the ability to save them.”
"You don't have the ability? You are a powerful martial artist. You can even kill Ba Ling. You should have the ability to save them!”
Uncle Zhong asked excitedly.
Li Meng furrowed his brows. He was very dissatisfied with Uncle Zhong's actions.
She saved him, but he didn't repay her and even questioned her.
In an instant, Uncle Zhong's strength seemed to have been sucked dry. He fell onto the bed with lifeless eyes.
Li Meng said coldly.
"I do have the ability to save them, but why would I do that? Just because I have this ability, does it mean that I have to have this layer of responsibility?”
" To me, the saying 'the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility' is nonsense. The reason why I'm willing to increase my ability is to protect myself and the people I care about.”
This was what he meant.
Uncle Zhong looked at Li Meng and sighed after hearing his words.
"I'm sorry. I apologize for questioning you just now. You didn't do anything wrong, and neither did I. Everyone has their own choices. I shouldn't and can't force you.”
Uncle Zhong looked at Li Meng with determination and said.
"When the nest is overturned, no eggs will remain intact. As long as you are still a human, you will inevitably fight against the demons. You said that you only want to protect yourself and the people you care about, but if this city falls, where will you go?”
Uncle Zhong's question struck a chord in Li Meng's heart.
Yes, how could there be an intact egg when the nest was overturned?
As long as he was still a human, those demons would not let him go. Therefore, letting him deal with the demons was also helping himself.
After Uncle Zhong finished speaking, he struggled to get up.
He walked out of the school doctor's office.
"You haven't fully recovered yet. If you go out now, you'll be courting death.”
"Everyone has their own choice. My choice is that even if there is a survivor, I will save him, even if I have to pay with my life.”
With that, Uncle Zhong walked out of the school doctor's office without hesitation.
Li Meng didn't stop him. Just as Uncle Zhong said, everyone had their own choices.
He didn't want others to interfere with his choice, nor would he take the initiative to interfere with others 'choice.
"Li Meng."
Seeing that Li Meng was in a daze, Lü Han called out to him with a smile.
Li Meng smiled at Lü Han, the person he had to protect.
"Xiaoxiao, don't you think I'm being too selfish?”
This time, Li Meng couldn't help but doubt himself.
"Of course not. If you were selfish, you wouldn't have come so far to save me.”
Lü Han smiled and shook her head.
"Then what do you think I should choose?”
"Hmm…If you ask me, I still hope that you can help this city as much as you can. We've lived here since we were young, and I really don't want to see the people in this city suffer.”
"Your parents, my parents sacrificed themselves for Nan Ning City. Their wish should be to protect this city.”
Lu Han said with a smile.
"Father, mother?"
Li Meng remembered.
His parents were members of the city guards.
They had died in a war with the Magical Beasts a few years ago in order to protect this city.
They had always instilled the idea of protecting their homeland into him and Lu Hanxiao.
"I understand, Xiaoxiao."
Li Meng's eyes, which were originally a little confused, regained clarity at this moment.
He had thought it through.
In fact, things were not that troublesome at all. Becoming stronger and saving the city did not conflict.
He had reached a bottleneck and could only complete missions or increase his spiritual force.
Killing Er Ling and devouring the Soul Orbs were the best ways to increase his Mentality. Hence, he could kill Er Ling while completing the mission and rescuing the survivors.
After thinking it through, Li Meng no longer hesitated.
