The Deadly Assassin Robin
Chapter 966 An Opponent Is an Enemy
Freya understood that this was Robin''s well-intentioned lesson.
He was giving Brendon a real-life education.
Not all kindness and selfless giving in this world could guarantee that it would be met with sincerity in return.
Whether it was in apetition, a war, or even in real life.
Many people were still recipients of help themselves but were generous in offering assistance to others.
Once someone fell into a difficult situation, those who had once received kindness might just stand by and watch, or worse, kick them when they were down. Someone like Brendon had spent too much time in Southville Residence.
Everything he had seen, heard, and been taught was knowledge from the textbooks of saints.
He had never witnessed the cruelty of reality.
To live in this world, the only true foundation was self-reliance.
When a person loves themselves, only then can they truly love others and the world.
Freya looked at Brendon, who was now showing signs of impatience, as if he would die if he didn''t immediately help the Rattlesnake team member.
"Alright, Brendon, you insist on helping Dana, so I''ll let you do it.
"Remember, the choices are entirely yours to make.
"If your actions dy our entire team, no matter your family background or status, you will be removed from the Dragon Soul team!"
"Of course. I always keep my word. Even if I die, it will not affect the final result of the entire team!" Brendon shrugged and gave his only water and supply to Dana.
Dana epted the water and energy from Brendon, a smug glint shing in her eyes before she downed it all in one go.
Brendon was stunned, not expecting that Dana would drink up all his water and energy.
The once listless Dana immediately seemed revitalized.
She looked at Brendon and walked over to give him a light hug. "Thank you! After thepetition, I''lle find you!" Brendon pped his chest with a generous grin. "No problem, it''s just a small thing. Let''s go, we still need to keep moving."
Dana waved her hand and made a face at him. "Friendship first,petition second!"
Brendon clenched his fist. "Good luck!"
Catherine almost threw up.
"Brendon, aren''t you disgusted with yourself? Hurry up and go, don''t waste everyone''s time."
Brendon snorted, "What do you know? I''m setting a shining example for our team.
"The Rattlesnake Special Forces have never even made it past the preliminaries in any majorpetition. They''re not even on the same level as us. What''s the harm in giving them a little help? "This is vision! Do you even know what vision is? Hmph!"
Catherine kicked him hard. "Vision, my foot! You''re just looking at her because she''s a beauty and feeling some sympathy.
"Brendon, just wait until Commander-in-Chief Ramsey kicks you out of the Dragon Soul Special Forces!"
Brendonughed dismissively. "I''ve got enough energy to make it to the end. Why would Commander-in-Chief Ramsey get rid of me?
"Don''t forget, Colonel Wright gave me the order to do this from Commander-in-Chief Ramsey."
Catherine was momentarily speechless.
She couldn''t understand why Robin would do something like that.
It waspletely out of character for him!
She caught up with Freya and, puzzled, asked, "Colonel Wright, why did you agree to let Brendon give his energy and water to that Dana from the Rattlesnake Special Forces?" Freya paused for a moment. "It was Commander-in-Chief Ramsey''s order."
"I''m asking why Commander-in-Chief Ramsey would agree to let him do that!" Catherine pressed.
"Hmph!" Talia snorted. "Catherine, you''re such a blockhead! Can''t you see? It''s to teach that brat Brendon a lesson!
"Commander-in-Chief Ramsey wants him to learn what a scheming woman really is!
"The female member of the Rattlesnake Special Forces, Dana, and those two guys did it on purpose-to dy our time and mess up our ns! "Brendon is in big trouble this time!
"I know he''s already been removed from the list for the next round by Commander-in-Chief Ramsey."
"Hey, look over there!" Maverick gestured for them to look behind.
At that moment, themander of the Peacock Kingdom Special Forces and Dana from the Rattlesnake team were whispering to each other.
Their faces were filled with mockery, clearly ridiculing Brendon and the Dragon Soul Special Forces for being so easily fooled.
Maverick pped Brendon on the back. "You idiot, they''reughing at you for being a sucker!"
Brendon shook his head. "As long as my conscience is clear, what do I care about their petty minds?
"Our Dragon Soul team is a top-tier elite force. How could we do something so petty?"
Maverick chuckled. "Just wait and you''ll understand what the harsh reality is!
"Using gentlemanly methods on petty people is like discussing manners with animals."
...
Meanwhile, themander of the Peacock team quietly asked, "Has your vanguard reached area two yet?"
"Yes, our vanguard has already reached the second area," Nester, Rattlesnake''smander, nodded.
"Our advance team sent a message. They''ve already entered the Dragon Soul''s energy and water supply center. "We''ve swapped out all their energy supplies.
"Now, this will be interesting. Without supplies and water, how will they reach the finish line? Hahaha..."
Themanders of the Peacock team and Rattlesnakeughed.
"Let''s go. Let''s get to the second area quickly and watch these foots from Dragon Soul Special Forces
struggle without energy," they said,ughing.
All thepeting teams had no obstacles crossing the first ins area of the mystic realm.
They spent an hour and forty minutes to fully cross the ins.
Beyond the ins, the second area was a valley.
This valley was separated from the ins area by a narrow river.
However, there was no bridge, so they had to build one themselves.
Using materials gathered from the ins, two logistics members swiftly constructed a temporary bridge.
After nearly 20 minutes of preparation, Gavin, Freya, and the others sessfully crossed the river.
On the rear was Maverick. Seeing the Rattlesnake and Peacock teams approaching from behind, he immediately destroyed the makeshift bridge.
Brendon shook his head as he observed Maverick''s actions. "Maverick, I didn''t expect you to be so ruthless."
Maverick snorted coldly. "Brendon, with your kind of attitude, I don''t even know how you made it through the assessment."
Brendonughed. "The Twelve Great Warriors trained my abilities. What''s stopping me from joining the Dragon Soul Special Forces?"
Maverick shook his head. "But your
different story. In this area, there are no friends, only opponents on enemies."
Brendon shook his head. "I believe that all the goodwill in this world can touch others. An opponent isn''t an enemy, they''re just a friend growing and moving forward together in this space.
"As long as you don''t have hostility, the other side will return your goodwill."
"You''re full of crap!" Catherine said coldly.
"In this world, it''s interests thatst forever. An opponent is an enemy, there is nothing more to say!"
