Chapter 156 - 94: Task Completed
“Why do you have to act like exterminating the entire human race is necessary?”
Wang Ping held his forehead and said helplessly.
“Is there a better way?” Qin Tian’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Of course, there is. After all, we haven’t finished analyzing the intelligence.”
Wang Ping sighed, “I think the last piece of information is key.”
“Actually, there really is a better way to handle it.” Zhang Jun spoke up.
“Then why did you say something like that?” Qin Tian looked at Zhang Jun with gritted teeth.
“I was just stating that, in dire situations, we have to distinguish priorities.
That’s all.’
Zhang Jun said calmly.
“We might not need to do that this time, but when our resources are exhausted, if we encounter similar situations in Group Tasks and have to exterminate the entire human race, we have to make choices.’
Qin Tian fell silent.
“Think carefully. As Time Travelers, we can’t be so naive. Our own lives are the most important, and the lives of others have nothing to do with us.”
Zhang Jun sighed and said.
“For example, if we died, how many worlds’ people would die due to strange
or other reasons? Therefore, our lives are more precious. Otherwise, I think you will be in trouble if you continue with your holier-than-thou attitude.” “Kindness is good, but when you gamble with your own life, I have no right to say anything more, and it doesn’t matter. However, this is not just your matter, it’s about the whole team, even all Group members.”
“….” Hearing this, Qin Tian couldn’t say anything.
After careful consideration, he indeed overreacted impulsively without thinking much about the consequences.
Zhang Jun’s words were reasonable, and he couldn’t refute them.
“Zhang Jun, you were a bit too harsh.” Liu Mei whispered, “He’s just a high school student who needs to grow up slowly.”
“Reality won’t give him that much time to grow up. So, he must quickly adapt and see everything clearly. Otherwise, I don’t want him to hurt his teammates.”
Zhang Jun spoke indifferently.
“l was wrong.” Qin Tian smiled bitterly, and in the end, he chose to admit his mistake.
He admitted that he was indeed a bit naive.
“To know your mistake and correct it is a great virtue, a teachable child.”
Zhang Jun patted Qin Tian’s shoulder, finally showing approval.
Wang Ping looked at everyone without joining the conversation.
When the two parties reconciled, and Qin Tian recognized his mistake, he was satisfied with a smile.
In a team, there’s no room for a holier-than-thou attitude.
Although Qin Tian wasn’t exactly a saint, he still needed to correct his train of thought and prioritize the team’s safety and interests during Group Tasks.
“Speaking of which, Mr. Wang, I’m more curious about why Xia Ruobing kissed you at the last moment. I think the hidden information there is also very important.
At that point, Zhang Jun looked at Wang Ping and said thoughtfully.
Liu Mei, Qin Tian, and Wang Shuqi all looked over, their eyes full of confusion and curiosity.
After all, it was very strange that Charm Skill kissed Wang Ping.
“I can’t figure it out. I don’t think Charm Skill has fallen in love with me,” Wang Ping shook his head.
Truth to be told, he was also very puzzled by it.
For a moment, everyone quieted down and began to think seriously.
“Is it possible that this is gratitude?”
Liu Mei finally spoke up after pondering for a long time.
“How so?” Qin Tian looked at Liu Mei and asked.
“Charm Skill can possess other people. When it appeared, Xia Ruobing was not yet born. After Xia Ruobing gained fame, Charm Skill probably possessed her.” Liu Mei said earnestly.
“So when I gained fame, Xia Ruobing, or Charm Skill, did not take action. It was waiting for me to become even more famous and become the new World’s Number One Singer.”
“After I became the World’s Number One Singer, it came to me to possess my body. Because I am even more beautiful than Xia Ruobing, Charm Skill’s ability could reach a higher level and eliminate humanity more quickly.”
“That makes sense. To be honest, I also thought about that.” Wang Ping nodded and shook his head again, “However, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with why she kissed me.”
Qin Tian, now sober-minded, realized this as well.
If Charm Skill wanted to possess Liu Mei, they could simply kill Charm when it possessed her. There’s no need for all the trouble.
With this in mind, Qin Tian felt annoyed, thinking that Zhang Jun must have realized this early on and just wanted to teach him a lesson.
Even Mr.Wang probably thought of this too but deliberately didn’t say it.
Mr. Wang was probably scared by his performance in the simulation and deliberately let Zhang Jun teach him a lesson to help him grow.
“We’ve been treating Xia Ruobing as Charm Skill, and she is indeed Charm Skill. But we seem to have overlooked one situation. That is whether Xia Ruobing still has her own consciousness and is in a symbiotic relationship with Charm, rather than Charm occupying her body…”
Liu Mei sighed.
“She knew all along what she was doing, and what kind of consequences awaited humanity. So, she really wanted to die, to die with Charm, but she couldn’t. Mr. Wang, your appearance and killing her several times must have made her feel special. That’s why, in the end, she kissed you..”
