When Donne and Elsa returned to Gunther, Gunther had basically recovered his strength and almost recovered from his injury.

The stronger the strength of the apocalypse, the weaker the effect of the goddess's blood. However, what Donne prepared for Elsa's confidants was high concentration, so the effect was still very good.

"Your Majesty."

Gunther knelt in front of Donne on one knee and said with a ashamed face, "my subordinates failed to kill Stanley. Please punish me."

Donne waved his hand: "it's no problem. I met him just now. His strength is a little strange. Describe to me what happened when you fought with him just now."

"Yes."

So Gunther repeated what happened in the field with Donne, without deleting a word. After hearing Gunther's description, Donne frowned: "that is to say, Stanley made a deal with the devil? Obtained the special power of komara's blood demon?"

"Yes, he exposed it himself, but his strength is obviously incomplete, so he can't kill me directly. He needs to hurt me first to get my blood."

Gunther said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect that he still had this means. He almost killed him for a moment."

"I see. You have a rest first."

Donne asked Gunther to rest. He stood where he was and started to stay.

Stanley made a deal with the devil just to gain power? Or is there any deep-seated reason behind this? Is this a demon's test of the surface world? They want to return to the earth?

After thinking for a moment, Donne's eyes fell on the most prominent castle in blood rock city.

It seems necessary to investigate there.

Elsa couldn't bear to see those people die so meaninglessly. She whispered, "Your Majesty, brother, Stanley's life and death are unknown now. Can this war be over?"

"Yes..."

Donne looked at the battlefield and muttered to himself, "these people are too worthless to die..."

It's not that Donne is ruthless. It's his mission that forces him to measure these lives by value. Now these grace people die here and don't make any contribution to prandal. It's obviously worthless death and consumption.

Even if these people are treated as slaves, sent to the mine as labourers, or transferred to be a worker on the assembly line, or even a farmer, it is more meaningful to die on this battlefield.

But now, all the strong labor force that should have been used have died here.

Waste, it's too waste.

In fact, up to now, there is no difference between the "war" and non-stop.

The powerful lethality derived from the magic weapons has completely defeated the 500000 troops gathered by Stanley. Now the remaining number is probably less than one in ten, and these people have obviously collapsed scared by such cheap death. The soldiers without fighting spirit are running away frantically. What is the sacrifice for his majesty Stanley and dedication to grace's future, It has become insignificant under the threat of life.

Under Donne's command, the thunderous gunfire gradually subsided. The soldiers of the Ilus Empire formed a group with tanks as the core and began to slowly advance towards the blood rock city. After a short time, they came to the center of the battlefield filled with gunsmoke.

Looking at the broken limbs and bones all over the ground, the brains of the excited Ilus soldiers gradually cooled down, and they couldn't help shaking and shaking.

These are the lives that died under their control. They didn't even see their faces clearly. They just moved their fingers

Killing has never been as simple as it is now.

It is precisely for this reason that they feel incomparable fear - if this weapon falls into the hands of others, will the people who die here be themselves?

War, why war?

Soldiers, especially recruits with little combat experience, suddenly began to dislike war as never before.

War is the root of all evil. No one wins or loses. Both sides of the war are losers.

On the battlefield, a soldier resisted the urge to vomit and muttered, "this war should not have been fought..."

A veteran said angrily, "don't be silly. The war with grace was doomed as early as solant's return to the Ilus empire."

"But it's too cruel..."

"Cruelty? Were the grace people cruel when they slaughtered the Principality of Sila?"

"But the people who slaughtered the Principality of Sila are not necessarily these people. They are innocent. Maybe some of them are moderates who don't want war. The real cruelty is the radical grace people..."

"No one is innocent in the war. When these so-called moderates enjoy the fame, wealth and status brought to them by the radicals, they are already the same kind of people. If they do not oppose the war, they acquiesce in the war and are also sinners."

The veteran paused, pointed to a staring corpse on the ground and said, "he may have a wife and children. As you said, he may be just a moderate who wants to live at ease, but now he has fallen on the battlefield. What do you think is the reason?"

"Because of what?"

"Although the main reason is Stanley, isn't there his own reason?"

The veteran asked the recruits: "Every Grice knows that they are enjoying everything that Grice soldiers burn, kill, rob and plunder outside, but they just silently accept all this and take it for granted. No one has stood up to question whether those soldiers did wrong, no one has stood up to denounce this behavior, and no one has made a voice for the dead innocent people."

"When the Syrians protested against the cruelty of the grace people, they turned a blind eye."

"This tacit attitude is the greatest sin. Why should others care about their thoughts when they don't care about other people's lives and thoughts?"

"When grace was surrounded by war and asked to stand up by Stanley they admired, they may not be willing to stand up, but in the end they had no choice but to stand up. This is the price they have to pay... Although the price came a little late, at least the innocent souls of Sila and ivalan can rest in peace."

The recruit was silent and now he feels terrible.

The veteran patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "look open, so this is war... Someone must die, either the enemy or us. Only the victorious are qualified to live."

The recruits couldn't help questioning: "but why is there war? Why can't we sit together calmly and share the world?"

The veteran smiled: "have you never read a book? Once mankind was a unified country, all mankind were a family, and the only empire was the Ilus empire."

The recruit was stunned. He really didn't know about it.

"The Three Kingdoms of solante, ronitant and grace, as well as those principalities, split up after the weakness of the ilrus empire after the second chaotic invasion war."

The veteran said sarcastically, "so strictly speaking, these countries are traitors to the Ilus empire. Now they are paying for the ambitions of their ancestors."

"Traitor..."

"Yes. What's more, isn't your majesty Donne working hard to achieve this goal now? Solant has returned. Although rontante has not changed, it is impossible to resist the general trend with its military strength. Sooner or later, these countries will return and become a complete country."

The old soldier said cleanly, "you should be glad that now we have your majesty Donne, so we are here to recover the kingdom of grace, rather than waiting for grace to call and turn arlinks into a dead city."

"So it is..."

"That's it. It's the greatest honor of your life to fight with your majesty Donne. You should keep that in mind."

The veteran pointed to the heavy armored tank around him: "see it? What else can give you a sense of security on the battlefield like it? But it was created by his majesty Donne!"

"Your Majesty Donne distributes the blood of the goddess and powerful weapons and equipment for us. He wants us to become powerful and invincible, but he has never been a belligerent ambitious, never!"

The veteran said firmly, "if your majesty Downe wanted to conquer the world by force, he could have done it long ago, but he didn't do so. He just made our life better step by step and strengthened the Ilus Empire to attract those people to take the initiative to return to the Ilus empire."

"Now, even the once rich ronitants always mention our Ilus with envy. How could this happen before? And isn't it brought by his majesty don that we can be proud of ourselves as Ilus? Have you ever seen a kinder and greater majesty than him?"

"No..."

"So, believe your majesty Donne, he will never attack the kingdom of grace without reason. This war just shows that the mistakes made by this country can not be forgiven casually. It must pay the price of life."

The veteran finished, patted the recruits on the shoulder and continued to patrol the battlefield.

The recruit silently thought about the truth in the Veterans' words in his heart. The chaotic and complicated thoughts slowly became clear. The tangled and heavy thoughts finally got through. Looking at the bones on the battlefield, he could finally face it calmly.

The sin of killing? If this killing can make the world a better place, let's bear this sin.
