Chapter 1098: Chapter 812: Accusations (Part 2)
After a mont, Su Mo returned to the Observer Base, where Qian Chengxue and others were busy with rescue operations and casualty statistics.
anwhile, bodies that had been completely sucked dry, leaving only their skin, were placed on the open ground.
Only a few bodies remained intact, such as Lin Muxi’s.
The atmosphere at the scene was utterly somber, with expressions of deep sorrow etched on everyone’s faces.
Lin Yaotian stood silently in front of Lin Muxi. Though he said nothing, his eyes had already turned red.
Lin Hai and others quietly stood beside him, their faces also full of sadness.
Woo~ woo~
At this mont, a cry rang out from nearby.
Su Mo turned his head and saw Wang Qing weeping bitterly in front of a charred, unrecognizable corpse. Judging by the broken gemstone ring on its hand, it should be Wang Ce’s body. The preservation of the corpse was largely thanks to the IV chanical Armor he wore.
…
Qian Chengxue, suppressing her sorrow, walked over to Su Mo and looked at the red-black streaks of pollution on Su Mo’s body, asking with concern.
“Su Mo, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
“I’m fine. Have the statistics co out? How are the casualties?”
Su Mo asked quietly.
“We had a total of 2,032 people, 843 died, and only 1,189 survived, nearly half of whom were casualties. And among those who survived, many escaped by fortune or managed to find a corner to hide.”
Qian Chengxue said with deep sorrow.
Hearing these casualty figures, Su Mo’s mood grew even heavier, unsure of what to say for a mont.
Just as Su Mo fell silent, a commotion arose.
Su Mo and the others turned their heads to see Li Ze walking over pale and in a ss, accompanied by several search and rescue team mbers.
Looks like he was just rescued.
Li Ze, looking at Wang Qing who was crying, called out uneasily, “Qinger.”
At that mont, the surviving Wang Family mbers turned to look at Li Ze, their faces filled with extre anger, so of them shouting directly.
“Li Ze, you have the nerve to co back.”
“Exactly, you coward, you deserter.”
“That’s right, you caused the Clan Leader’s death.”
…
Su Mo was slightly stunned and quietly asked Qian Chengxue, “What’s going on?”
“Li Ze fled out of fear during the fight against the Monster, disregarding the lives of Wang Qing and Wang Ce.”
Qian Chengxue shook her head and said.
Su Mo was taken aback at this, unsure of what to say.
Xiao Qijin, Zhang Xun, and others stood by watching, their mood also bad. So they didn’t bother to speak up, but their disdainful expressions were obvious.
In any family, fleeing is considered disgraceful and contemptible.
Especially when abandoning one’s fiancée and father-in-law.
At this point, the eldest son of the Wang Family, Wang Kui, angrily stepped forward and gave Li Ze a hard shove, shouting in fury, “Get out of here! Our Wang Family doesn’t have people like you.”
Li Ze, his face filled with sha and anger, began to explain, “Brother Wang Kui, let explain. I really tried my best, this can’t be blad on , the Monster was just too strong.”
“You’re just a coward, a deserter.”
Wang Kui and the others ignored the explanation and angrily accused him.
“Exactly, coward, get out!”
…
The Wang Family mbers present angrily accused Li Ze in unison.
Li Ze, helpless, rushed over to Wang Qing, saying anxiously, “Qinger, you know best, you must understand how I had no choice, right? I know I’ve let you down, please forgive , I promise it won’t happen again.”
Wang Qing, who was crying, looked up at Li Ze, her tears flowing incessantly, her heart aching like a knife.
Her lips moved slightly, but she said nothing.
Once upon a ti, Li Ze was like the sky to her, but when he abandoned her and fled, forsaking her grandfather’s life, her sky collapsed.
Watching Wang Qing sob and remain silent, Li Ze grew more flustered.
He hurriedly reached out to hold Wang Qing’s hand and begged.
“Qinger, please forgive this once, I know you won’t bla .”
Wang Qing withdrew her hand, wiped her tears, and said to Li Ze with a choked voice.
“I love you so much, how could I not forgive you.”
“Qinger, I knew you were the best, have you forgiven ?”
Li Ze said, overjoyed.
Then Wang Qing said tearfully, “You left and fled. I don’t bla you. But my grandfather is dead, and there can never be anything between us again, and the Wang Family can’t accept you anymore. Let’s end it here, you should leave.”
Hearing Wang Qing’s words, Li Ze suddenly felt lost and staggered backwards a few steps.
Wang Kui and others looked at Li Ze with disdain, as though they were looking at a Plague God.
At that mont, Su Mo coughed and said, “All right, everyone, let’s handle the aftermath quickly.”
“Yes, Lord Su Mo.”
Upon hearing Su Mo, everyone respectfully responded.
At once, they continued to organize the bodies, preparing for cremation.
Li Ze stood there like a passerby, with no one willing to pay him any attention, treating him as if he were air.
So mbers of the Wang Family murmured curses under their breath.
“Thought he was so amazing, bragged about himself, turns out he’s just a fool.”
“Even fools are more reliable than him, he’s just a coward, a deserter.”
“Exactly, it’s truly a blind eye.”
“I once thought he was like Lord Su Mo, a worthy individual. Turns out he’s a wimp.”
…
Despite the murmuring from the Wang Family, Li Ze couldn’t shake off their scornful and mocking expressions from his mind; his heart was suddenly shattered like sothing had broken.
His body was overwheld with Negative Energy Pollution, surging like a tidal wave.
His eyes turned blood-red in an instant, his expression fierce as he shouted, “What are you saying!”
“Sothing you did and don’t want it to be said? We’re talking about you. If you hadn’t run away, how could our Wang Family lose so many people, how could the Clan Leader die?”
All the Wang Family mbers present were angry, not intending to excuse Li Ze.
Su Mo saw this and furrowed his brows, quietly asking the Fake Owner·Swallower, “What’s going on? Li Ze’s State seems a bit off.”
“Emotionally extrely volatile, Negative Energy Pollution exploded, what’s so surprising.”
The Fake Owner·Swallower said lowly.
At this mont, Li Ze raised his hand and shouted at all the Wang Family mbers, “What right do you Wang Family have to accuse ? How many tis have I risked my life for the Wang Family? How many things have I done for you, facing danger first every ti. Just once, honestly overwheld and scared, ran away, and you keep blaming , is that fair to ? How much have I given for the Wang Family! I’m also human, I can be scared, I don’t want to die… you’re just double standards, Holy Mother!”
…
Upon hearing these words from Li Ze, Su Mo furrowed his brows tightly.
