    Chapter 409 Waiting among the roses, the responsibility of being the leader

    "Let us end everything with a fight."

    Although he had long known that the final result would be like this, Huo Zhengqing did not draw his sword immediately, but still asked without giving up, "Are you really going to make a decision? I can promise that as long as Huo Zhihuo is handed over,  Give it to me, no one else will be touched, and everyone can leave safely. Even Ziwei¡¯s daughter, Zuo Xinlan.¡±

    Feeling that Chu Yu's injuries had almost recovered, Chen Xiaoming did not continue to be wordy, "I have to say, your concession is really big, but do you think I will agree?"

    "Of course you won't." Huo Zhengqing was not angry when he heard Chen Xiaoming's direct refusal. He stroked the sword and turned to look at Huo Zhihuo disdainfully, "But Huo Zhihuo, at this point, are you still prepared?"  Just continue to watch the fun, you are the employer.

    ¡°In other words, you don¡¯t really think you can defeat me just by yourself.

    I admit that each of the helpers you have found has some very special abilities. This violent girl is very powerful, and Mr. Leader¡¯s ¡®robot¡¯ is also very powerful.

    But no, it¡¯s not enough.

    In front of Crimson Rose, your strength is nothing to mention!

    Huo Zhihuo, I'm not afraid to tell you that this crimson rose is a star prop!  And it's not those ambiguous one-star props that only have some special abilities.

    It¡¯s two stars!  What it possesses is not only special abilities, but also infinite power.

    Under the infinite power of the Crimson Rose, the Flower Corpse Man is invincible.

    "Don't think that you can defeat my Flower Corpse Man just because you were able to escape from the Flower Corpse Man's pursuit and escaped disaster."

    That¡¯s just because I have other things to do, and I didn¡¯t take care of them for the moment. Although I don¡¯t want to admit the result of letting them move freely, the flower corpse people¡¯s self-mobility is indeed somewhat poor.

    But it¡¯s different now. I can tell you that now that I¡¯m back, under my control, the fighting power of the Flower Corpse Man will be a hundred times greater!

    If you really continue to persist in your obsession, the possibility of surviving is zero.

    How about it, Senior Brother Huo Zhihuo, although I have always hated you, I think you are still a courageous person, so don¡¯t let me look down on you.

    Now, the time has come when you must make a choice.

    It means continuing to do the same as before, dragging others into hell with you for your own selfish desires.

    Still like a man, shoulder all this on your own shoulders.  He used his own life in exchange for these people and the name of Ziwei's daughter.

    I think there is no need for me to say more about how to choose.

    ¡°Senior Brother Huo Zhihuo, now you make your choice, I can wait for you for one minute at the end.  .  "

    After Huo Zhengqing finished speaking, six rose flowers suddenly flew into the sky.  The roses shook in the air and scattered into rose petals.  There are 10 petals each, a total of 60 crimson petals floating quietly in the air.

    Then, one after another, the petals slowly fell, one by one in a second.

    In the blink of an eye, seven seconds passed, and seven petals fell from the rose.

    After doing all this, Huo Zhengqing didn't even look, so he narrowed his eyes. He just put his arm around Huo Ziwei's shoulders and said nothing.

    Looking at the rose petals still falling slowly in the sky, Chen Xiaoming couldn't help but secretly sigh, Huo Zhengqing is really not a mortal, and deserves the name of a genius.

    There is no doubt that this is a mind-attacking technique!

    The seemingly casual chat between Chen Xiaoming and Huo Zhengqing actually had their own purposes.  Chen Xiaoming wanted to buy some short time for Chu Yu to recover from his injuries so that he could cope with the subsequent battle.  But Huo Zhengqing was just the opposite. His goal from the beginning was Huo Zhihuo, and his intention was to defeat the enemy without fighting.

    In Huo Zhengqing¡¯s casual chat, she reminded Huo Zhihuo many times, overtly or covertly, straight to the point, or irrelevantly, that all of this was your fault.

    Huo Zhengqing has always made no secret of his disgust for Huo Zhihuo, and at the same time constantly attacks Huo Zhihuo's psychology, making him feel guilty and even start to hate himself.

    What he said and what he did were all foreshadowing his last words.

    Finally, in the most subtle way, Huo Zhihuo is left with a path of atonement, leaving Huo Zhihuo no choice.

    At this time, Huo Zhengqing no longer seems to be the cruel murderer, but has become a missionary with guidance!

    But just as missionaries are often lunatics and hypocrites who are desperate for their doctrines, these two seemingly optional paths are actually dead ends.

      One is to follow Huo Zhengqing's hint and finally choose to 'trade his life for the lives of others like a man'. If so, no matter whether Huo Zhengqing decides to let others go, Huo Zhihuo will  At least he could take this life easily.

    Even if Huo Zhihuo insists on going his own way and refuses to choose this path, Huo Zhengqing will not lose anything. On the contrary, it will cause cracks in the relationship between Huo Zhihuo and several other people.

    In this way, he will have more back-up moves, and Huo Zhihuo's final end will be much worse than now.

    "If it were an ordinary person, no, if Huo Zhihuo was still the idiot obsessed with dreams in Huo Zhengqing's memory, he would definitely be fooled.

    Yes, Huo Zhengqing still underestimated Huo Zhihuo, and also underestimated people like Chen Xiaoming.

    There is nothing wrong with Huo Zhengqing's approach, and it can even be said to be quite insidious, but he is too naive. However, although Chen Xiaoming was thinking this in his heart, he urgently wanted to tell Huo Zhengqing immediately, "You don't have to use this trick anymore."  Yes, Huo Zhihuo is my friend, I will help him." But he was unable to take any action.

    It¡¯s too early to make a statement now.

    Although when Chu Yu was injured by Huo Ziwei, for the three Ye Die Thieves, this fight had to be fought.  Even the reason why she talked so much with Huo Zhengqing was not because of Huo Zhihuo, but because of other reasons.

    But at this time, Chen Xiaoming could not stand up and support Huo Zhihuo.

    They are just employees. They will only do things according to Huo Zhihuo's requirements, and will never do unnecessary things like standing up for others.

    Therefore, Chen Xiaoming can only wait.  Waiting for Huo Zhihuo's answer.

    ¡°As Huo Zhengqing said, it¡¯s time to have an answer.

    The relationship between Yedie Thief and Huo Zhihuo is actually very subtle. Huo Zhihuo can be said to have saved Yedie Thief's life, but the relationship between the two is a mission relationship.

    In the new world, task relationships can be said to be the most common and safest relationships. Because of the complete task center system, this relationship can be established, modified and ended very conveniently. At the same time, the perfect relationship based on [Protection Level]  The graded system leaves almost no chance of default.

    But no matter how perfect it is, after all, in the star realm, this relationship is still only a cooperative relationship, not a relationship of friendship.

    But when friendship is mixed into this relationship, things get more complicated.

    ¡°Obviously, the relationship between Yedie Pirates and Huo Zhihuo is not that simple.

    Going back to the employment mission of Yedie Pirates and Huo Zhihuo, since Huo Zhihuo saved Yedie Pirates' life in the first place, he can be said to be the benefactor of Yedie Pirates and several others, so Chen Xiaoming and Huo Zhihuo still trust each other.  Therefore, they did not set up mission protection measures.

    But this trust should not be unlimited, especially after the escort mission was replaced by the more dangerous trip to Xianwu Ridge, this kind of mission without protective measures became even more fragile.

    In other words, if emotional reasons are excluded, both parties can terminate the task at any time.

    Of course, it is not completely free. This termination must be based on the approval of the mission center.  Otherwise, the party that terminates the task early will be punished with implicit points or credits within the task center.

    But it's different now. Due to a series of circumstances, the danger and complexity of the mission have already exceeded Chen Xiaoming and Huo Zhihuo's original expectations. For such a situation, according to the general rules of the mission center, no party will be punished for terminating the mission.  Points penalty.

    In other words, now, Chen Xiaoming can terminate the mission relationship between Ye Die Pirates and Huo Zhihuo at any time, and Huo Zhihuo can do the same.

    They had to make a choice at the same time, making their own decisions among the scattered petals.

    Half of the petals have fallen, and Chen Xiaoming is extremely anxious.

    ¡°Not long ago, Chen Xiaoming said this as the leader, ¡®We, the Night Butterfly Thieves, are only on Huo Zhihuo¡¯s side because we were hired by him.¡¯

    He can¡¯t break his promise, which will damage the team¡¯s credibility.

    Although he would not take the initiative to terminate the mission relationship out of emotion, if Huo Zhihuo finally chose to give up, he could not insist on saving him. Even if he did not want to, he could only watch Huo Zhihuo choose to die.

    The most that can be done is to avenge Huo Zhihuo after his death.

    Therefore, we have to admit Huo Zhengqing's brilliance. On the one hand, he wooed Chen Xiaoming, but on the other hand, he only pointed the finger at Huo Zhihuo, which continued to intensify this contradiction and may even cause the already fragile task relationship to break down.

    This is a conspiracy, Huo Zhihuo can see it, Chen Xiaoming can see it, others only need to follow the rules of the mission centerIf you have some understanding, you can probably find some problems.

    However, this is the fact.

    Like a trap in the sky, you can't get around it, you can only step over it!

    The key to this debate lies entirely in Huo Zhihuo's hands. Yedie Thief cannot make a choice on his own initiative unless Chen Xiaoming ignores this and helps him unilaterally regardless of the cost.

    But Chen Xiaoming knew that he couldn't do this. He had to hesitate and weigh it, because he was now the leader of the Night Butterfly Bandits, and two friends (Dongfang Jing, Zi Lanna) were innocently involved in this incident.  middle.

    The huge burden Chen Xiaoming carries prevents him from making irresponsible choices at will.  Yes, like Huo Zhihuo, Chen Xiaoming was also forced to a dead end when Huo Zhengqing offered conditions that could ensure everyone's safety.

    Maybe it¡¯s not ungrateful, but it doesn¡¯t matter whether it¡¯s cold-blooded or ruthless. At this moment, although Chen Xiaoming was extremely anxious, he still just stood there expressionlessly, waiting for Huo Zhihuo¡¯s answer.

    This is his responsibility as the leader.
