City No. 4.

Zeros Group Headquarters.

Spiral King Ross looked at the stone platform that was split in half by Theresia's sword. The expression on his face did not change, he still had a smile and a gentle and reserved temperament.

In order to show his sincerity, he did not wear the mask he usually wore today. At this moment, the iron metal mask fell from the broken stone platform to the ground with a clang, making a thrilling crisp sound.

If he doesn't give an explanation today, will he destroy the foundation of the group he has worked so hard to build?

Ross stretched out his hand and said, "Please."

"What?" Theresa was stunned.

"I said, please do it."

Rose's face still maintained a smile, a gentle smile, a smile full of malice.

"Ms. Theresia, you seem to think that I value the Lingsi Group that I built with my own hands, this powerful group that dominates the Northland, just like you value those useless consumables and come to see me for them.

.”

"You want to use this to threaten me, coerce me, force me to make concessions and admit my mistakes to you, just like the little warnings I gave you."

"you are wrong."

"I don't really care whether you will really destroy my Lingsi Group, it will not become a bargaining chip for you to blackmail me. Do you still remember what I said to you when we last met? It doesn't matter if you forget,

I can tell you again seriously and in detail."

"It was never me who relied on the Northland and sucked the blood of the Northland. It was the people of the Northland, whether it was the wilderness or the citizens of City No. 4, who needed me and relied on me. Just like my Lingsi Group, it has always been

It is that it is attached to me, not that I rely on it or need it."

"Nonsense!"

Thearesia frowned and rebuked angrily: "Obviously, it was you who exploited the people of the North to plunder resources and wealth, and spread the tentacles of your power group all over the North and to the mainland, which made you the leading figure in the Federation.

, I don’t believe you really don’t care about these foundations at all!”

"No, no, no, Ms. Theresia, you are mistaken. I became a big figure in the Federation not because of how I exploited the people of the North and how huge my foundation was, but because of me, because of my own strength.

"

Ross stretched out his index finger, shook it and said:

"Even if you really destroyed my power, you just asked me to spend some time to get another one. And my behavior is not exploitation to be precise. I just got what I deserve that matches my strength.

It’s just resources, these belong to me.”

"Belongs to you?"

Theresia laughed angrily, "As expected of the leader of the plutocrats, you really come out with such nonsense and sophistry. Don't you feel disgusted and ashamed when you say these words?"

"It's because you haven't had time to change your mind, madam. Human society is just covered in a gorgeous coat. In essence, it is just running a set of rules of the weak and the strong. As a weak person, you can only be eaten by the strong as food. This is a matter of course.

, the law of all things.”

Ross said slowly and unhurriedly:

"Human individuals are already divided into strong and weak ones. The emergence of psychic energy has further widened the gap between strong and weak people and brought subversive changes to this set of rules. In the past, before the emergence of psychic energy,

, money, power, these are the standards to measure a person's strength."

"The strong feed on the weak and rely on exploiting the weak to strengthen themselves. You can say that the strong also rely on the weak. Just like the pyramid, without those weak and common civilians at the bottom as the cornerstone, there would be no one standing at the top of the tower.

The strong one."

"But after the emergence of spiritual energy, the strength of the strong no longer comes from exploiting the weak. Money, power... spiritual energy is the proof of a person's strength. The strength of the strong no longer comes from the weak.

, is no longer the money and power obtained by relying on the people at the bottom, but comes from oneself and one's own great power."

"This is where the pyramid model breaks down. In the past, the strong dominated the weak, exploited the weak, but also relied on the weak. Without those weak and huge civilians, it would be impossible to achieve a person's strength and greatness."

"Now, the strength of the strong comes from themselves. The so-called bottom, those huge numbers are just numbers to us."

"On the contrary, now it is those who need us and rely on us, because without us, they will die in the harsh living environment where wild beasts and natural disasters are raging. Their lives and their value depend on us to survive.

, everything they have belongs to us, do you understand, madam?"

"Crooked... fallacious lies!"

Theresia's voice trembled, and clear anger appeared on her face.

"According to what you say, then since I am stronger than you now, should you just surrender and let me do whatever I want?"

"Unfortunately, Ms. Theresia, if you haven't changed your mentality, still empathize with those weak, and put yourself in the same position and level as them, you will never be considered a truly strong person."

"Because you have such a clear weakness, such an obvious weakness, you are so easily manipulated and threatened, just like your ancestors."

Rose smiled, looked at her with disdain and teasing, and spread his hands.

"You can attack me, but I want to remind you that even if you can kill me, you will have to pay a high price. I will not sit still and wait for death. And in the entire No. 4 City, tens of millions of lives, you have

Do you have the consciousness to bear these blood-stained sins?"

"You can also destroy the building under our feet and destroy my power and foundation. I don't care, but don't forget that my Lingsi Group has monopolized the grain transportation trade in the North. Have you ever thought about it?

How many people will die from lack of food in the wilderness, will they starve to death and freeze to death in the wind and snow?"

Theresia's lips were tightly closed, her teeth were clenched, her hand holding the sword was trembling, and her pupils were trembling.

She knew that Ross was betting that she would not dare to attack him, using these naked threats and warnings, and using the lives of these innocent people to make her fear and retreat.

His smile was contemptuous, and the malice emanating from him was thick and dark, covering her like glue and congealing.

"Look, Ms. Theresia, you are not powerful at all. You are just a lucky person who rose to the throne in one step. You do not have the mentality or qualifications to match that power. You dare not swing your sword at me."

Ross chuckled, clapped his hands, and summoned a servant.

The servant was holding a broom and was about to sweep away the gravel on the ground. Ross waved his hand and flicked him away, leaving only the broom.

He threw the broom at Theresia's feet, pointed at the gravel on the ground, and ordered in a cold voice:

"Now, pick up the broom and clean this place up for me."

"You broke my table, and I asked you to help me clean up the garbage. You wouldn't refuse, right?"

He said that you shouldn't refuse, but in his eyes he was sure that Theresa didn't dare to refuse.

Without even looking at the broom at her feet, Theresia raised her sword and struck at him.
