Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Availability of Advanced Weapons
"You should have noticed that he has technology or weapons that are beyond this era, right?" Leng Pan asked.
Thinking of the strange and lethal weapons that the commander had given them, the two soldiers turned pale.
Now, they couldn’t doubt the words she had said or refute the things she had shown them.
When the others saw their reaction, they also realized that Leng Pan was right. In that case, everything they had witnessed was real. They couldn’t help but shudder at the thought.
"Then what should we do?" Janna was scared, but she also knew that being scared wasn’t going to help.
Since her idol wasn’t even afraid of death just to save humanity, why should she be so afraid that she would shrink back.
She was going to fight side-by-side with her idol.
She was going to be as powerful as her idol. Her idol had been a commander who led thousands of troops into battle, she could do the same.
Silk and Vortex no longer had any qualms about leaving the military. In fact, they were going to recruit some of their brothers whom they could trust to join their cause. They couldn’t fight such a big war alone, but they knew that many passionate soldiers would join them.
"I will talk to some of our brothers in the military. There are those we have performed dangerous missions together and share life-and-death experiences.
They will definitely join us once they find out the truth. Luckily, yours isn’t just a story but there is evidence to back it up.
We have always been wondering where the commander got such advanced weapons from, we didn’t expect that he was leveraging the memories of the past when he betrayed humanity to make them.
But Mrs. Lu, eh, Commander Leng, since the opponent already had such deadly weapons and we don’t, how are we going to survive and fight them?" This was indeed a valid question.
But it was this question that reminded Leng Pan of the other room in the mansion inside the space bangle that had also opened.
She hadn’t had the time to explore it but she had taken a peek. The room was filled with all kinds of weapons.
Moreover, these were the real weapons from the ancient times and not some imitation using cheap materials.
Thinking of this, a bright smile bloomed on her face. The smile was so bright that it chased all the chill in the air and brightened the mood of everyone in the room.
They didn’t know why she was smiling like that, but they knew it must be something good.
Even Lu Zhen, who had been in pain since he saw that replay of Leng Pan’s death, felt his body lighten and the pain disappear without a trace.
Indeed, so what if she had sacrificed herself in the past, it gave them this chance. So, he had to cherish it and love her without limits.
When he came to this conclusion, he also felt his mood lighten and everyone could tell that he was feeling better.
They had all noticed his gloomy mood since he saw that video and judging by the fact that they saw him getting pushed back into the city before it was sealed and disappeared, they knew that he also didn’t know how his beloved had died.
Now that he knew, it was normal for him to be upset. That was why they let him mop around on his own. They were giving him space to digest his grief.
"Don’t worry about those weapons. We can make more powerful ones than his. After all, we were the core members and know the details of production and materials needed better than that traitor.
So, don’t worry. We will have our teammates who have also regained their memories help in making the weapons.
We will provide the first batch in two weeks, for now, lay low and train your body and superpowers as much as possible." Leng Pan finally advised everyone, especially Silk and Vortex.
"I can’t believe humanity has gone through something so earth-shattering!" Everyone suddenly heard Vortex mumble.
They all turned to look at him and only then did they realize that he was actually just coming out of his super now.
He had been in a daze ever since he watched that video.
Seeing him this way, they all shook their heads, his shock absorbers were not working properly.
"You fill him in on what we have discussed as it looks like he wasn’t with us." Leng Pan said to Silk.
"Alright, you should go back and think about what you just saw and heard. Think long and hard before deciding your next step because after this, there is no turning back." Lu Zhen finally spoke with an authoritative tone that left no room for argument or questions.
The guests didn’t say anything, especially Xu Man, his wife, and Juan Ke. They had all been quiet throughout and only now did they get up and say goodbye before taking their coats and leaving.
In fact, it wasn’t because they had nothing to say, but they were too shocked to say anything.
They had not expected that the world they knew was only a new place bought for them by the sacrifices of others.
They had been living peacefully for thousands of years because people forfeited their lives to give their ancestors a chance to escape.
This was both heartbreaking and eye opening. They realized that even the soldiers they worshipped today were nothing compared to real heroes like Leng Pan and Lu Zhen.
After everyone had left, the living room fell silent. It was such a deafening silence that Leng Pan became uncomfortable.
Finally, Uncle Li spoke, "Why didn’t you tell us about something so important?" He wasn’t accusing them, he just didn’t understand why they would hide it from them.
However, women like Li Yunjia and auntie Li understood. They knew that it was because they didn’t want them to worry.
