Chapter 958 - 252: He Weidao and His Companions Are Shocked
When Fang Ze’s note arrived, He Weidao, Xiong Qi, Tiger King, and others were discussing the current battle in Taihe City.
Tiger King walked down the hallway in the lobby, his face filled with fury and self-blame, "We should have acted faster from the start! We might have been able to save them!"
"Millions of people! Nearly half were killed by those beasts!"
"Each one of them was a living, breathing life!"
Upon hearing his words, the scene quieted down, with no one daring to touch such a sensitive topic. Only someone like Huo Xian, who was fearless like a newborn calf, was still contemplating the matter.
He stood aside, lowered his head in thought for a moment, and shook his head in analysis, saying, "Vice Envoy, we didn’t have enough time."
"Evacuating millions of people, even with extraordinary artifact-enforced relocation, would take at least several hours."
"And from the time we deduced the outer realm demigods’ next target to their attack, there was only a two-hour gap. Even if we had been faster, it wouldn’t have been enough."
At this point, he paused and added, "However, their city massacre this time was mainly intended to intimidate the next cities they will attack."
"This actually indicates that there will probably be no large-scale slaughter afterwards."
