After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess-Chapter 167 - Making a Decision

“Zhou Mingrui.”

Suddenly, Zhao Anqi’s voice could be heard from the phone.

“What’s wrong?” Zhou Mingrui, who was about to hang up, asked.

“If, and I’m saying if, the super beast tide comes, give me a call and I’ll get someone to take you away,” Zhao Anqi said after a short pause.

“Sure, I’ll come to you if I need help. Thank you.” Zhou Mingrui hung up the phone right after he finished speaking.

Zhou Mingrui got up from the bench and returned to his dormitory. Yan Wuyue was already in the living room.

At this moment, Yan Wuyue had an ugly expression. Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her hands clenched into fists.

[Is there no such scene in the future?] Zhou Mingrui went straight to the point.

Yan Wuyue looked up at Zhou Mingrui and shook her head. She sighed and said, [I didn’t expect things to develop into a situation worse than before.]

Zhou Mingrui walked to Yan Wuyue’s side and sat down. Looking at her conflicted expression, he could only say, [It’s useless to think about this now. You should think about what we should do.]

Yan Wuyue shook her head helplessly. [The super beast tide isn’t something we can control with our current strength. Even participating in it will be dangerous.]

Zhou Mingrui’s tone turned stern. [Yan Wuyue, I remember you’re not someone who breaks down so easily. This is not the ultimate beast tide, so we don’t need to be responsible for it. The country will naturally take the lead.]

Yan Wuyue rolled her eyes at Zhou Mingrui, then said hatefully, [Are you stupid? When did I break down? I’m not depressed about what you think.]

[Then why are you so depressed?] Zhou Mingrui blinked and asked.

[What I’m depressed about is the change in the situation. Think about it, the appearance of this super beast tide will affect more than one country.]

Yan Wuyue stared into Zhou Mingrui’s eyes and said, [We still have to face the threat of a great calamity eight years later. If the human race’s strength is greatly depleted now, what will we do then?]

When Zhou Mingrui heard this, he finally understood. Indeed, as Yan Wuyue had said, this super beast tide would cause a heavy blow to humanity regardless of the outcome.

Even in the most optimistic state, there were more than eight years to buffer, but the growth cycle of the strong could not be made up for in eight years.

After all, it was impossible for everyone to have a fortuitous encounter. Such a thing was simply unrealistic.

[I understand what you mean, but it’s not realistic for us to think about this now. Since the super beast tide has already happened, we might as well think about how we can minimize the losses of humans in this beast tide.] Zhou Mingrui explained.

[You’re right.] Yan Wuyue nodded and continued, [But my personal choice is still to avoid the super beast tide as much as possible.]

Upon hearing that, Zhou Mingrui said in surprise, [Are you sure you’re saying that we should avoid helping the super beast tide and hide instead of assisting the frontline?]

Yan Wuyue rubbed between her eyebrows and said helplessly, [I’ve said it many times. With our current strength, we’ll only cause trouble if we go. We must preserve our strength now so that we can prepare for the great calamity in the future.]

Zhou Mingrui shook his head this time and said, [I have the opposite opinion this time. I think we should join in the fight against the beast tide.]

Yan Wuyue glanced at Zhou Mingrui and realized he wasn’t joking. She asked, [Why don’t you tell me why?] fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

Zhou Mingrui coughed lightly and said, [I know that the beast tide is scary, but isn’t crisis an opportunity at times?]

[A large number of monsters will allow us to quickly increase our levels and grades. At times like this, the country will not be stingy with the rewards. With the help of various resources, we can increase our combat power even faster.]

[I know you’re worried about what you’ll do if you encounter an extremely powerful monster, but have you ever thought about it? Humans have their own powerful existences, so they naturally won’t just sit back and do nothing.]

[We just need to do what we should do and kill as many monsters as possible. It will help us, our country, and even all of humanity.] fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

[Isn’t this what you’ve been pursuing all this time?]

In the end, Zhou Mingrui said with a solemn expression, [Also, I have to tell you something. The beast tide this time has exceeded your expectations. What if more dangers appear in the future?]

[For example, what if a great calamity happens in advance? Are you sure we have enough combat power to deal with it?]

Hearing Zhou Mingrui’s question, Yan Wuyue’s fingers were tangled together, proving the dilemma in her heart.

[You said that you failed in your previous life and that you want to develop until the end of this life. But are you sure you can still face the enemies that you have not fought yet?]

[That mysterious light bulb, no, the figure of light. Are you sure that with your strength in your previous life, no, even if your strength is doubled, you can defeat him?]

Yan Wuyue sighed and shook her head. [You’re right. I was too worried this time.]

Zhou Mingrui heaved a sigh of relief and said, [I know you have a lot on your mind, and I don’t blame you. I’ve said it before. We are standing on the same side.]

With that said, Zhou Mingrui got up to pour a glass of water for Yan Wuyue. Then, he sat on the sofa beside her and quietly waited for Yan Wuyue to recover.

About half an hour later, Yan Wuyue suddenly reached out and picked up the cup. After drinking the water in one breath, she exhaled the foul air in her heart.

“You’ve decided?” Zhou Mingrui asked when he saw this.

Yan Wuyue nodded gently. “Yes, I’ve decided. Let’s join the battle. As for the rest, we’ll decide when we get to the battlefield. However, since we’ve chosen to participate in the battle, we have to solve a problem.”

Zhou Mingrui was taken aback. “What problem?” He asked.

Yan Wuyue sneered. “That’s why you never think about a problem comprehensively. Since we’re going to participate in the war, we must go through the academy. Otherwise, the army will never accept us.”

“Do you think those old guys will agree to let us go to the battlefield? They’ll probably just capture us and lock us up.”

Zhou Mingrui was taken aback. He knew that Yan Wuyue was right. The situation would indeed develop in the direction she had described.

“I knew it. You only know how to come up with ideas on the spot and won’t think about these details.”

Yan Wuyue took out her phone and dialed a number.

“Hello, I’m Yan Wuyue. Yes, Dean Lin, I have something to tell you.”

After nearly half an hour on the phone, Yan Wuyue finally hung up.

After letting out a long breath, she said, “Alright, it’s settled. Now, we can go directly to the army to register.”

Zhou Mingrui smacked his lips and did not say a word. Yan Wuyue had made countless promises and conditions in order to join the army and head to the front lines.
