Condemning the Heavens Chapter 443

Chapter 443: 443
Xue Wei looked at the general who was also observing everyone who had arrived .
When he saw that a group of the soldiers who stood in front of him did not show signs of fear, his lips tucked into a smile . These soldiers were the ones he had been waiting for .
The ones who showed fear, just because of his strength, could still be used, but they would not become the core of their army .
Only those who did not show fear in front of an overwhelming foe was worth spending time on and nurturing .
Xue Wei was amongst the people whom the General noticed, and so were his friends, the Chi Branch member and his friends, and a few others who were fearless, but even so, they were all polite .
"Attention!" the General called out, and while the majority trembled in fear after hearing his voice, Xue Wei, the Chi Branch member, and the others who did not fear him looked at him curiously . What was he going to say?
"Since you have been sent to the main army camp, and respectively to me, I expect all of you to be elites . We do not need cowards, nor do we need people who cannot fight!
"Although you belong to the Main Army Camp, you will spend most of your time roaming the coastlines, either here in the Demon Phoenix Continent, or behind enemy lines!
"Here we fight, not only for our own lives, but for our homes, and for our people! For our freedom!
"I need everyone to be aware of the fact that the freedom of our families depends on our actions . Kill all your enemies! If you cannot win, kill as many as you can, and make sure to bring them with you to your death!"
Everyone felt a chill running down their spine as they listened to the General, but no one dared interrupt him .
"I am not going to lie to you, out of you people, I do not even expect even a tenth to survive . When you signed up for the army, you signed your death warrant, but this is not a useless death, this is the sacrifice we pay to save the people of our continent from becoming slaves!
The people who listened were frightened . Although they knew that the mortality rate of the experts in the army was big, they had never thought that it would be this bad . They had never thought that they would become another number in the statistic .
While Xue Wei was listening, he stayed calm and casual . He was not afraid of fighting; all he knew was that he had survived multiple life and death situations . He knew that even if he could not defeat his opponent, he should have a chance to flee . As long as he did not encounter a whole army on his own, he had faith in his Forbidden Rush to escape .
"People change," Xue Wei suddenly muttered, "endless battles change a person whether they want to or not . "
He knew that the majority of the people who would die in the war were the ones who could not adjust to the slaughter that was required of them .
When he had been in the Ascended's Realm, he had realized that the experts from the Demon Phoenix Continent were pampered . They did not know the seriousness of life and death battles, and only when one had undergone enough of those, they would have faith in being able to stay alive .
But this world was cruel . If one was willing to kill, they had to be ready to be killed in return . Even if they did not kill, others might try to kill them due to greed, wealth, or jealousy .
There were very few innocent people left in the world, and those who were, did not get to old age .
"In the Army Camp, you should have already formed some groups," the General continued to speak . "These groups will be your groups when entering the warzone; you will become brothers who rely on one another to survive .
"Now you have to enter the city, and here you will pick an empty house . This house will work as your base for when you return from the frontlines .
"You can buy things in the main camp, but gold and essence stones have no value here; everything has to be paid for by merit points or items of equal value .
"You will be given a bracelet that will gather the souls of those you kill, and those souls can be exchanged for merit points .
"Now, enter the city, and get ready for the time you will be told what mission you are assigned . You will be entering the battlefield either on this side, or the other side of the sea . "
When he finished speaking, he flew into the air and vanished within the blink of an eye .
Xue Wei shrugged his shoulders and gathered his friends . He had to find Lan as soon as possible, find a house, and volunteer to go behind enemy lines .
He thought that it would be quite challenging to find Lan, but upon entering the city gates, he found the usual figure leaning against the city wall, looking at him with an enigmatic smile, and Xue Wei shook his head . Of course Lan would find him .
"I found us a home," Lan said . "It is in the upscale area of the city . The previous owners were not happy with vacating it, but after bashing them a little, they gave it up obediently . "
Xue Wei could not help but smile when hearing this . An illustrious Deity had bashed a few mortals for the sake of having a house . Did he not feel ashamed at all?
As if he could hear Xue Wei's thoughts, Lan looked at him, and said a sentence with complete arrogance, "Not at all!"
