It certainly falls into the category of "snitching".

"..." Then, the smile on the Rap King's face gradually faded.

However, he and Cong Yu had actually guessed that this day would come... they just didn't expect it to come so soon.

The day a person commits murder...

Chapter 779 You are not worthy to kill, I will kill you.

Kill one person to save a hundred... How about that?

The answer is not so.

If all patients can be saved, then of course they should be saved.

After all, they've already saved a hundred people, so saving one more wouldn't be a big deal... Of course, that's assuming the person who was saved doesn't say such a thing, because that would be disgusting.

But the problem is...

Sometimes, it is indeed difficult to choose to save everything.

The people in those tribes... their very existence, perhaps, is a sin in itself.

Before the "world," those unkempt, fur-clad, dark-skinned, and odorous Amazon natives stood out.

They may not garner much sympathy.

To be fair, Cong Yu believes that... if it were his former self, he wouldn't care about these innocent people.

He clearly doesn't care whether he kills one person or saves a hundred... He would do it without hesitation if he wanted to.

But what's interesting is...

Cong Yu hasn't changed much; she's just put on a warmer, more gentle exterior. To put it another way...

The current Cong Yu is the kind of person who would choose to "kill a hundred people to save one person" without any hesitation.

The monster named Cong Yu continued to show his usual indifference to life... even if it wasn't just a hundred people, but tens of thousands, or even millions.

"Although I think the person who gave the order was very likely not doing so for a reason like 'saving the world'."

Cong Yu spoke, he rested his chin on his hand and sighed slightly, "But it's undeniable... the progress in saving the world is indeed moving forward."

Moreover, what we're advancing is that most difficult 1% of the progress, which is foreseeable in the future...

"..." The Rap King frowned, and he fell silent for a moment... To be honest, he should be considered Monster King whose stance is very biased towards humans.

If Etzel is absolutely neutral...

So, if we draw a midline with Etzel, Cong Yu can "presumably" think about the problem from a human perspective... that is, she is more biased towards humans.

The Snow Woman might be the opposite of Cong Yu from Etzel's route... or "for the time being" considered to be more inhuman.

While the Rap King isn't like Carlos Mario or King Odin, he can be described as a king who "loves" people.

But he can also identify himself as a "human being" without any emotional fluctuation.

It's natural that the Rap King would feel bad after hearing Cong Yu's words... after all, he is the ruler of the Inner Side United States.

Only when faced with such a difficult problem, confronting a "choice," can people truly grasp the weight of it.

So, should we acquiesce?

The Rap King was somewhat emotional, but he also knew that this might indeed be a more suitable plan for the Monster King's actions.

Standing idly by is the norm for non-human beings.

Moreover, everyone is in a hurry right now, so if someone is willing to be the "bad guy" and buy time for humanity... perhaps that's a good thing.

This is a very rational approach.

But...

Of course not.

Cong Yu said, glancing strangely at the Rap King: "Of course we have to stop these guys from acting on their own... Didn't you make any arrangements?"

Before being invited by the Rap King to discuss this matter, Cong Yu thought that the Rap King had already arranged for someone to stop the politicians' actions.

So, it turns out they wanted to ask for their own opinion?

Thinking this through, Cong Yu pondered for a moment and understood what the Rap King meant, "If it really comes to a last resort, I..."

"We will not show any mercy to those who get in our way."

However, this is only a last resort, and the current situation has not yet reached the point where it can be called a "last resort".

Of course, these are not the main reasons.

"I don't believe that those who order killings have any right to decide the life or death of other humans."

With that, Cong Yu stood up, his eyes filled with determination as he made his stance clear. "If it is truly necessary to eliminate a portion of humanity, then the only one who can do it is me."

"I will raise the blade, I will grant eternal slumber to the ignorant, I will devour, I will slaughter, I will kill... but not them."

"..."

"Ah..."

Regarding Cong Yu's words, and the "great good and great evil" they implied, the Rap King, besides expressing such sentiments...

He couldn't offer any further comment.

He wasn't even sure where his feelings came from...

Is it lamenting Cong Yu's indifference and cold-bloodedness? But after all, Cong Yu was trying to save all of humanity...

To say that Cong Yu is too realistic is ironic, but the current situation is hardly "too" realistic either.

So, perhaps we should be amazed by Cong Yu's sacrifice? But Cong Yu's declaration at this moment is not a declaration of self-sacrifice, but a declaration of slaughter.

Can such behavior truly be called justice?

The Rap King wasn't sure, but he was very clear that Cong Yu's reason for needing to protect the world was probably not because he loved the world itself.

He declared he would kill ten thousand, even a hundred thousand people, perhaps only to save a few from the Calamity.

The only word that can be used to summarize it in a slightly positive way is...

"Your will is truly strong."

As the Rap King spoke, rubbing the stubble on his chin, he said, "Or to put it more nicely, could you call it 'enlightenment'?"

That would be too nice of you to say.

Thinking this, Cong Yu shook his head. "There's no need to embellish it with those things... but I don't want it to develop to that point either."

No matter how necessary evil may be, evil is evil.

This is clear and obvious.

"Right now, time isn't that urgent... Let's talk about what to do next when there's really only 1% of humanity left."

Cong Yu spoke, she gave the Rap King a look that said, "You go and negotiate with those politicians," before walking towards the door. "The trouble isn't with those 'tribes' whose locations are known, but with humans whose whereabouts are uncertain."

For example, a child raised in the wild by a curly-haired baboon... or something like that.

This kind of "humanity," so elusive and difficult to detect, is the final hurdle for humanity's salvation...

Lost in thought, Cong Yu suddenly opened the Gate, bumping into the guy eavesdropping outside.

"Bang--"

With a thud as the door hit her head, Nagashima Koki collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"The world's cutest child, legendary horse hunter, master of the Holy King's Magic Eye, a middle school student who was just a few months ago, a savior, the strongest hero— Nagashima Koki, suddenly passed away at the age of 2.5."

Cong Yu was speechless at Nagashima Koki, who had fallen to her death and was still babbling on like she was reciting a syllable.

"So many people died suddenly, is there really enough room to bury them all? And... you don't look like you're only two and a half years old."

With that, Cong Yu grabbed Nagashima Koki and said, "Alright, we found you sneaking around eavesdropping outside as soon as we found you in the room, so of course we won't blame you. You don't need to pretend to be dead."

Seeing through Cong Yu's deception, Nagashima Koki stood up, put her hands on her hips, and laughed, "What eavesdropping? I didn't know!"

"..." Whatever makes you happy.

Cong Yu was thinking this, while Nagashima Koki immediately raised her hand, blinking her eyes. "Um, does handsome Cong Yu need my help?"

Help? What kind of help?

Seeing the question on Cong Yu's face, Nagashima Koki immediately replied, "I can try to awaken the ability to 'Human Detection Level'."

It's a naming style that feels very familiar, but...

"Can you do it? If you can, it will be a huge help."

Cong Yu spoke earnestly, squatting down in front of Nagashima Koki and gazing into her eyes, which were no different from those of an ordinary person.

Regarding this...

"I have no idea!"

Nagashima Koki responded confidently, then chuckled softly, "But... what you hold in your heart will surely come to pass!"

Cong Yu: "!!!"

Cong Yu was shocked on the spot.

Nagashima Koki has evolved! She can actually use idioms now!

Chapter 780 Killing, News, and Feeding Dumplings

[Recent reports indicate that the Chinese military conducted joint military exercises in the Amazon region, an action that has drawn widespread attention and strong condemnation from the international community.]

The Amazon rainforest, as the world's largest tropical rainforest, is not only one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth.

The military activities conducted by the United States in this ecologically sensitive area undoubtedly cause serious damage to the natural environment...

"... Joint military exercises... this is how the newspapers summarized and characterized this massacre in United States."

.

The Rap King thought to himself, and sighed slightly...

However, we should have known this would be the outcome long ago.

There may not be many people in this world willing to fabricate fake news for money (really?), but there is never a shortage of journalists willing to keep quiet for money... Distorting facts and downplaying major issues are their specialties.

I studied journalism.

Perhaps most people would be completely bewildered upon seeing such news... Of course, no one cares about the complicated and bloody events that follow.

Aside from the tribe members who were killed, nobody cared.

"Sigh... They're unwilling to stop, and they like to bribe reporters. With that kind of money, wouldn't it be enough to convert those tribal members?"

The Rap King muttered to himself, then sighed and picked up the walkie-talkie, "Action, action, Plan C, Plan C."

Under the Rap King's instructions, the Creeper Gang members, who were already prepared, immediately began their operation.

As for what exactly Plan C is...

I really like a quote from Ah Q --

What? Cong Yu can kill, but I can't?

--

[In a series of assassinations of United States officials that sent shockwaves across the global political stage, the Creeper Gang claimed responsibility.]

[According to anonymous sources, the gang makes no secret of its actions, claiming that attacks on several former presidents and current high-ranking officials were meticulously planned and carried out by them.]

[In its statement, the Creeper Gang indicated that these actions were overseen by United States. military operations recently conducted in the Amazon.]

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and intelligence agencies have remained silent on the matter. Our reporters will continue to follow up on the investigation as more information becomes available.

"..."

"Oh, the Creeper Gang... that name sounds familiar."

Yuan'an Alisa said this, she got up, packed the heated dumplings, and handed them to the customers who were preparing to take them home.

"Well, Mike said I was prepared, but actually his own preparedness wasn't bad either... He killed very decisively, not bad."

As Cong Yu sighed, Yuan'an Alisa sat back down at Cong Yu's table. "Ah? Do you know about the Creeper Gang?"
