298: Chapter 298 eting (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (Fourth Update) 298: Chapter 298 eting (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (Fourth Update) Hai Lan also sighed and said,
“Alas, let’s hope so.
But who knows how many lives this war will take away.”
“So wars are unavoidable, and besides, war is for a more lasting peace, as there are indeed so people you just can’t reason with.”
Su Ming explained in a very calm manner.
“Mhmm.”
Hai Lan nodded slightly in agreent.
…
Starlight City Imperial Court Academy Interstellar Airport.
One by one, family mbers of the students, dressed in black simple attire and sobbing, waited in the C89 docking berth area, consoled by the teachers of the academy.
At this mont, several journalists with caras occasionally took photos of the scene.
Just then, Red Teeth broke through the dark clouds and slowly descended from the sky, landing smoothly at the interstellar airport.
The exit of the ship opened slowly.
Vice Principal Fleck, accompanied by nurous teachers and students with heavy hearts, escorted transparent chanical coffins down from the ship.
At this mont, waiting family mbers could no longer suppress their sorrowful emotions and rushed forward.
When they saw their children’s bodies inside the chanical coffins, they burst into loud wailing.
“My son!”
…
More relatives, their faces pale, asked Vice Principal Fleck,
“Principal, where is my child’s body?
Didn’t he sacrifice himself?
Why don’t I see his body?”
“Yes, what about ours?”
…..
“I’m sorry, we weren’t able to bring back your children’s bodies.”
Vice Principal Fleck bowed deeply to them, expressing his condolences with a heavy heart.
“Whimper!”
…
The scene of the relatives crying grew even more heartbreaking.
Su Ming and the others watched this scene with increasingly heavy hearts; war is just so cruel.
It’s not like a league where you get a chance to start over, death is death, and there’s no coming back to life.
Mia looked at everyone’s downcast faces and sighed, comforting them,
“Sacrifice is an unavoidable thing, and perhaps the next one to be sacrificed could be soone close to you.
You must learn to control your emotions and accept everything stoically, carrying on the beliefs of your fallen comrades and living well in this world!
Rember my words, the dead are the happiest, for it is the living who suffer the most because they have to endure everything.”
“Mhmm.”
Rhein and others nodded in understanding, though not fully grasping her aning.
At this ti, Mia looked at Su Ming and noticed that his eyes were very calm, almost without any ripples, like a solid rock.
She spoke thoughtfully to Su Ming,
“Su Ming, take your classmates and Hai Lan back to rest.
I’ll stay here and help handle things.
Also, starting tomorrow, take a three-day break to get so good rest.”
“Alright, everyone follow .”
Su Ming nodded and led the group toward the waiting bus.
Soon, everyone boarded the bus, and the vehicle began to slowly drive away.
Su Ming turned his head and looked through the window, glancing back at the gradually receding Red Teeth, then he pulled out his phone from his pocket.
A stream of text ssages popped up.
He opened and read these ssages, all from his father and mother, and there was also a ssage from his grandfather Su Zhen Tian.
The content was roughly the sa, asking if he was safe.
Su Ming looked at these ssages, showed a slight smile, and replied one by one.
…
The next morning.
Su Ming and the others arrived early at Teacher Mia’s residence.
They were greeted by Catherine standing at the entrance, and she had specifically put on the dress that Su Ming had bought for her.
“Big brother, you’ve co.”
Catherine exclaid happily.
“Mhmm, is your mother up?”
Su Ming asked with a smile.
“Yeah, I’ll go call her.
Mother, big brother and the others are here.”
Catherine ran cheerfully into the house to call.
Soon, Hai Lan ca out carrying a small bag, greeting Su Ming and the others with a smile.
“You’ve arrived.”
“Are you all packed?
If so, let’s set off.”
Su Ming said to Ms.
Hai Lan.
“Yes, let’s go.”
Hai Lan replied without a hint of hesitation.
Su Ming promptly led them out of the school, and soon a group of them took off in two hovercars.
Inside the car, Catherine looked out the window with curiosity, exclaiming without stopping.
“It’s so beautiful!”
“Do you like it?”
Su Ming asked with a smile.
“Mm-hmm.”
Catherine responded obediently.
“If you like it, consider living here with your mother.”
Su Ming patted Catherine’s little head as he spoke.
At this mont, Ms.
Hai Lan asked Su Ming.
“Mr.
Su Ming, where is the delegation from the Crimson Country staying now?”
“We’ve looked into it, and they’re staying in District J1, Red Leaf Street.
Although it’s a bit out of the way, the area is still very nice,”
Su Ming replied to Ms.
Hai Lan.
“Alright.”
A glimr of anticipation appeared in Hai Lan’s eyes.
…
More than two hours later.
The hovercar passed through a fast track and arrived at Red Leaf Street in District J1, stopping in front of a building surrounded by tall walls at the very end.
Not only was the gate firmly closed, but there were also several soldiers standing guard at the entrance.
When they saw the hovercar stop, the soldiers imdiately beca alert.
Su Ming got out of the car with Ms.
Hai Lan, while Rhein and others got out of another hovercar.
“Who are you?
This is a restricted area.”
The captain of the guard walked up and asked.
With politeness, Su Ming took out his student card and replied.
“We are students from Imperial Court Academy.
These two are Ms.
Hai Lan and Miss Catherine from Crimson Country.
We are escorting them to et with their delegation.”
“You can knock on the door.”
After checking the IDs and glancing at the appearance of Ms.
Hai Lan and her daughter, the captain stepped aside.
Su Ming stepped forward and pressed the doorbell.
Ding-dong~
Before long, hurried footsteps could be heard.
The tightly shut door was then opened, and Erina looked out with a puzzled expression.
“Erina!”
Hai Lan called out to Erina with a bit of excitent.
Upon seeing Hai Lan, Erina’s eyes also showed shock, followed by a delighted shout.
“Your Highness, you’re still alive, that’s wonderful!”
“Yes!
And we owe a lot to Mr.
Su Ming and the others,”
Hai Lan explained to Erina.
“I see, co in quickly, don’t stand outside.”
Erina hurriedly invited Hai Lan and the others inside.
Su Ming and the others followed Erina in, and inside the gate was a small open space leading to an old Gothic-style building.
When they entered the building, they ca to a spacious hall.
The hall was filled with children; there were no adults in sight.
The children shyly looked towards Su Ming and the others.
Su Ming and the rest couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions as they observed the children.
These were the sa children Erina had once taken to kneel at the City Lord Mansion, the last hope for the Crimson Country.
With a complicated expression, Hai Lan asked Erina.
“Erina, besides you and the children, is there anyone else here?”
“No, that’s all.
We escaped in such a hurry that I was only able to bring these children,”
Erina replied, with a slight redness in her eyes.
“You’ve worked hard.”
Hai Lan said gratefully.
