Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 1091 1094: The Truth

But none of them said anything.

They seemed to have a tacit understanding and silently looked at the live broadcast that of the frontline situation that was done through the people there.

Only some people could see it and Mr. Jones was one of them.

This was done so that they could see the situation on the frontline but right now, Mr. Jones just wanted to see his son.

...

Long distance away, Continent Z, frontline.

Samuel and Riya were looking at each other as they hovered midair.

From the way it looked like, the two of them had a lot to say yet at the same time, they seemed to have known what the other party wanted to say.

"You know what the Green Planet's Consciousness wanted," Samuel stated.

His tone was firm, fully convinced that Riya should have known about this matter for a long time and perhaps...

She could guess what the Green Planet's Consciousness actually wanted.

From the moment Riya brought him to the place where the Green Planet's Consciousness stayed, Samuel had long known that Riya was also very intelligent. She seemed to be able to know many things that he himself was not sure of.

Right now, Samuel only felt that the situation with the magic beasts were strange, but it was hard to associate with what the Green Planet's Consciousness wanted.

But after hearing Riya's question...

He seemed to understand something.

"Just a guess... but I think that the Green Planet's Consciousness will confirm that it's true," Riya replied with a bitter smile as she looked at the passage in front of her.

The Green Planet's Consciousness didn't give her much time and Riya knew very well that more and more magic beasts would flood the entire Green Planet.

She didn't know what kind of world awaited them should they come to the other side.

But she knew very well that if they continued to stay here and let the Green Planet's Consciousness restrict the magic beasts' movement, they would eventually die out of exhaustion.

The grand magic beasts' tide is endless.

There were so many strange magic beasts pouring out from the passage as if they wanted to flood the entire Green Planet.

Riya knew very well that it was true.

The other world is definitely far bigger than the Green Planet and with so many magic beasts... this is a battle they were doomed to fight.

And if it was just destroying the passage, the Green Planet's Consciousness might be able to do something. But what followed after the passage destruction would be a never-ending battle on its side.

The magic beasts would not give up after they had found the Green Planet's coordinates.

"The Green Planet's Consciousness should know that this is a long and might be endless battle," Riya said slowly as she looked at the distance, not knowing what she was looking at. "The real reason why there are returnees... it should be an agreement with other worlds to fight the grand magic beasts' tide."

Samuel didn't stop Riya from speaking.

He had some guesses on his own too.

Why does the Green Planet's Consciousness send 12 people into Afirer Kingdom and equipped them with so much knowledge?

Why does the Green Planet's Consciousness change the Green Planet's terrain and forced the people to struggle and get prepared for the grand magic beasts' tide, allowing many people to die in the process?

Why does the Green Planet's Consciousness interfere with the passage on Continent W's side after Ruth's action and closed down one of the passage forcefully?

Everything seemed to have answer now.

At least, Samuel understood the reason why Green Planet's Consciousness did these right now...

And it was all thanks to Riya who told him the truth.

But at the same time, knowing the truth didn't make him feel better because Samuel seemed to understand that in the eyes of the Green Planet's Consciousness, they were all nothing more than chess pieces.

The reason why they were chosen... isn't it because it as convenient to pick them?

"We're all chosen to represent the Green Planet to fight the grand magic beasts' tide and basically the repayment from the Green Planet's Consciousness for their help in assisting us to have more resources to grow, isn't that right, Green Planet's Consciousness?"

Riya spoke calmly, but every words seemed to slice through one's heart.

She felt very painful.

It seemed as if everything she did was nothing in front of the Green Planet's Consciousness.

It was watching them all playing coldly and calculated their future trajectory based on its own ability.

And through these things...

The Green Planet's Consciousness basically calculated the best future that would suit the Green Planet's Consciousness's needs the most.

Riya and the others were selected because they have a role to play in the Green Planet's Consciousness's scheme.

And...

Riya knew very well that even if she knew the truth, she would have follow through what the Green Planet's Consciousness was planning for them.

"From the beginning, we're nothing more than pawns in the Green Planet's Consciousness's eyes," Riya said slowly, her voice cracked slightly as she tried to hold her emotion back.

At this moment, she seemed to understand how those returnees from Continent Y were feeling when they realized that their entire life has been controlled by someone from behind the scene.

And even if they didn't actually wanted to...

They had no other choice but to follow through with what the one who arranged them in this life.

It's painful.

So painful that one felt as if their entire heart has been ripped apart.

Moreover, this made one question their existence.

Why?

Why does it had to be me?

If the Green Planet's Consciousness had known what would happen to them and know all kind of difficulties that they would face, why would the Green Planet's Consciousness allow it to happen?

Countless questions like that flashed in their minds and it was terrifying.
