Upon hearing this, the chief academician looked at Jian Liu in disbelief: "Those were your soldiers!"
"They died for the glory of the legion, which is an honor for them."
"When the day comes for the new world to arrive, people will lay flowers at their tombstones, praising their deeds."
"But their deaths are meaningless!"
The chief academician wanted to say more, but the cold and stubborn look in Jian Liu's eyes extinguished his anger, leaving him drained and on the verge of collapse.
"Because of your obstinacy, their deaths were meaningless..."
"You have changed."
"If all of this isn't to deeply engrain the pain of history, to return this world to its rightful path, then what is the point?"
"Are we leading human civilization into the future, or are we letting history repeat itself?"
"I can no longer continue this research; it will destroy everything. I don't want to be the one who digs civilization's grave with my own hands."
