Chapter 39, Fire Bearer

In fact, Gu Hang is still not sure whether the fact that Yan Fangxu is trapped is part of Hodgson's warning.

If so, then the capabilities of the Original Raging Owl Sect are a bit great. Not only do they master the storm magic given by the evil god they believe in, but they even have the means to control those mutant monsters to some extent?

But to say otherwise would be too much of a coincidence.

He also thought about whether this could be a way to lure the tiger away from the mountain?

Besiege Yan Fangxu, transfer the main forces in the camp to rescue, and then attack the camp?

But soon, Gu Hang dismissed this idea.

Unlikely.

If his enemies are just mutant monsters, then these monsters don't have that kind of brain.

If his enemy is a cult, or worse, someone from the alliance government, then destroying Gu Hang's camp is of little value to them. After all, whether Gu Hang is causing trouble for the cultists or for the alliance,

The government's main source of trouble when it comes to trouble is his power as governor.

As long as he is alive, what if his camp is destroyed? Those people will be in trouble at all.

Of course, it is not completely impossible. If the rescue force sent by Gu Hang was not led by him personally, the enemy might still attack the camp in order to seize this opportunity to kill him.

And if he personally leads a team to rescue, he may have to be prepared to be ambushed.

No matter what, this matter is not easy to handle.

But Gu Hang is not a troubled character.

Now that a challenge has come, face it head-on.



In Fuxing City, Hodgson was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at the entire city through the huge glass window of his office.

In fact, Fuxing City is not particularly big, and there are not too many high-rise buildings. The interior of the entire city, the buildings and roads are planned in an orderly manner. This is a good foundation laid by the first governor when building the alliance.

However, after so many years, although the inner city looks fine, the larger outer city attached to the outside of the city wall is in chaos. Hundreds of thousands, nearly a million people, depend on the city.

, but had no chance to enter the inner city life, and formed a vast slum outside the city wall.

There was no planning, lack of order, and everything was in a mess. Sewage flowed across the river, supplies were in short supply, and life was difficult. These problems shrouded that place, and it was not what a planetary capital city should look like.

There are many Alliance members and inner-city residents who dislike those refugees. They believe that these people bring chaos, and that the slum area is even more filthy.

But smart people actually clearly understand that Fuxing City cannot do without those people.

The refugees living in the outer city eat the worst and least food, are poorly clothed, and live in haphazardly built homes. The people in the inner city do not pay them any public services or welfare guarantees, but make them do the hardest work.

Work only gives them a small amount of remuneration, which is just enough to keep them alive.

Without them, how could inner-city residents live a good life? How could those legislators earn wealth that far exceeds their contribution?

Therefore, these smart people will occasionally show their compassion without hesitation. They will provide more jobs and give alms to the refugees, as if they are really saving them.

But they have no intention of seeking the welfare of those who are not residents.

Allowing nearly one million refugees to live a good life? This is simply unimaginable. People in the inner city are still dissatisfied that their lives are not good enough. How can they have the strength to take care of the refugees outside? Fewer deaths are all they have.

Be kind.

Smarter people may be able to see the crisis hidden in the low and dilapidated houses outside the city wall.

Underneath those low-brow, numb and taciturn expressions, is there no anger?

In fact, the fire has burned countless times. Just a few sparks are still too weak. The slightest resistance is either crushed under the huge inertia of this deformed system, or is left unarmed in the face of the military armed to the teeth.

The police were dispatched.

In short, none of these sparks turned into a fire that burned everything.

But that day will come sooner or later. What is missing is a fuse and a fuse.

Hodgson clearly realizes that he is one of the "smarter people". He can see all this, but his wisdom is limited to this. He can't find a solution, and he has not integrated everyone's ideas.

Ability, he can't even control the Alliance Council.

He didn't know that someone in the council was secretly supporting the cult;

Someone dared to attack the supplies delivered to the governor, but he was powerless to stop them;

The layers of resistance when mobilizing military and police forces to investigate the cult, as well as the endless debates and questions in parliament, left him mentally and physically exhausted.

He felt more than once that he was really old.

But he didn't dare to retreat.

The investigation of the cult was originally an order issued by the governor, which was to toss up the political situation of Fuxing City. However, when he really carried out the investigation, he faintly felt that something was wrong: the fuse he was afraid of in the past, the fireman.

, seems to have appeared.

"grandfather."

Lambert Hodgson opened the office door.

Old Hodgson did not look back, but asked: "Is there any result?"

"We still haven't found the whereabouts of that batch of supplies. Representative Marion denied that the supplies passed through her hands. Two agents in charge of this line are missing; we searched many Angry Owl statues in the outer city. According to the confession,

It came from a relief shelter. A team of police officers tried to search the place, but it triggered a small-scale riot by the refugees. They returned without success. After more people were mobilized, the place had been burned down..."

Old Hodgson sighed heavily: "This time, we are in big trouble."

Lambert agreed with his grandfather's judgment, and because of this, he felt a little at a loss.

He asked: "I thought it was just the governor who was causing trouble for us, but I didn't expect that after checking it, I really broke out in a cold sweat. Those cultists are going to do a big thing in Fuxing City, but what are we doing now?

There is no clear information... What should we do next? The governor's side is likely to be attacked, do we really not need to go to support him? "

"Who should we send? I'm not even sure whether the people we send may be the ones who attack the Governor in the future. The Governor may also think so, and he won't trust us easily."

"Then we must also show our attitude." Lambert insisted at this time, "I'll go and bring a team that is absolutely trustworthy."

"Do you know what this means?"

"I know it means that we will not only have to withstand the suspicion of the Governor, but also be considered by those congressmen to have completely surrendered to the Governor, becoming a plywood in the middle."

He was clearly talking about the tragic consequences, but as he went on, Lambert's tone became more and more determined:

"But, I understand what you said last time, 'Only the Governor can save the world.' We are not sure if it is this Governor, but at least now it seems that this Governor is a little different from the previous one.

He chose a path that no previous governor dared to take. He has a starship support that past governors did not have. I want to give it a try. If he is not the governor we expected, then I will do my best to help him.

Be that kind of governor."

"We don't have that much time to wait for more governors. The whole planet is looking forward to revival, and the sooner the better. I am willing to contribute to this instead of continuing to wait silently. Being a promoter of the times is far more important than

It makes much more sense to wait for times to change and then get in the car in a panic.”

The young man told his lofty ideals in front of his elders, while his elders looked at him quietly.

After a while, Hodgson breathed a long sigh of relief: "I am already very old. At my age in this wasteland, I have already lived enough and cannot make more bold decisions. You have never been better than

Your father is better, and if you want to do this, then just do it."
