"What are you doing?"
The First Prince roared.
"Didn't you say it yourself? In a state of war, this isn't considered indiscriminate killing!"
"Our two countries are currently at war. According to your logic, isn't it normal for me to kill some people?"
Xu Linna covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
In her eyes, all these people were test subjects.
Not just gene experiments, but experiments on human nature.
Before, Xu Linna didn't quite believe in the human nature experiments conducted by Tang Houde. However, at this moment, she suddenly found this experiment quite interesting.
The diverse humans in this world were so foolish, so ignorant.
"We are at war because you are darkness, and we are righteousness. It is only natural to punish you!"
The First Prince roared in exasperation.
"Let me think about it again, and I'll give you another chance!"
As Xu Linna spoke, she used a force field to slowly lift a woman into the air.
This was the First Prince's wife.
"Save me..."
The woman's throat felt constricted, her hands clutched her neck tightly, and her legs kicked weakly.
"Now tell me, am I truly darkness? You know the answer I want. If you answer incorrectly, she will die!"
Xu Linna asked with a smile.
"As royalty, we are meant to be role models for all people!"
"For the sake of the country and righteousness, we have long been prepared for sacrifice."
"Therefore, even if you kill all of us, I will still have only one answer: we are righteous, and we will ultimately triumph over you dark villains!"
As the First Prince's impassioned speech ended.
With a snap, the woman's neck was broken, her head lolling lifelessly.
"Unfortunately, you answered incorrectly. It seems you really wished for her to die!"
Xu Linna shrugged, preparing to end this tedious experiment.
"It's not that I wish for her to die, it's you who killed her!"
The First Prince roared.
"You are mistaken. I am merely a tool. The one who truly decides her fate is you!"
"I told you, as long as you say the answer I want to hear, she can live. Even if you say something against your conscience, she can live."
"But you chose to let her die, so you are the murderer!"
Xu Linna slowly walked up to the woman and, with a gentle wave of her left hand, the corpse instantly flew out and slammed heavily against the wall.
"Hmph, do you think I don't know the intentions of your kind of villains?"
"It's like a cat playing with a mouse before eating it."
"So no matter how I answered, you would have killed them, wouldn't you?"
The First Prince sneered.
"Actually, no!"
"While you didn't give me the answer I wanted, that is your own freedom."
"We don't know each other at all, yet you stubbornly believe I am exactly as you imagine me to be."
"This is as ridiculous as you believing the True God Cult must be evil just because you don't understand them, and that other countries must be righteous!"
"Your country's soldiers didn't need to die. It was because your father and you made the same mistake, insisting on treating an unknown powerful enemy as a hypothetical foe, ultimately leading to the nation's downfall."
"You are the same. You assumed that someone you didn't know would kill all of you, and in the end, you caused the death of your own loved ones."
"What you are clinging to is not righteousness at all, but an excuse you've fabricated to cover up your own mistakes."
"So, the game is over. I'm leaving. Take care of yourselves!"
Xu Linna said, releasing the force field around the First Prince, then strode out of the great hall with her long legs.
"What? You're really not going to kill us?"
The First Prince was stunned.
Had he truly misjudged her?!
If he had only said, against his conscience, that they were righteous, would his wife and sister still be alive?!
Could it be that he was the one who killed them!?
"No, absolutely not! She's just tricking us, tricking me!"
The First Prince roared with maniacal laughter.
"You fool, do you want to get us killed?!"
"It's all your fault, you killed them!"
The other princes rushed forward and fiercely grabbed the First Prince by the throat.
They had genuinely escaped death. If Xu Linna hadn't stopped immediately and used their lives as stakes to question the First Prince one by one, they would all be corpses by now.
Having escaped death, their first thought wasn't relief, but to condemn the First Prince.
Just as Xu Linna stepped out of the royal palace hall, a prince ran over, panting, and said with a fawning smile:
"Respected adult, we have dealt with that uncooperative fellow!"
"We are willing to join the True God Cult and become your most loyal followers!"
Xu Linna turned her face slightly, smiled faintly, and said:
"I'm sorry, I don't like spineless people!"
Then, a powerful suction pulled the prince back into the palace, and immediately, the entire palace collapsed, burying them all...
