"Hmm… or maybe the soul inside is their real goal?" Alex said.
"Who cares," Mingyue replied. "We'll find out when the time comes. So what do we do now? Stick with them?"
"First we make sure the surrounding area is clear. After that, we leave."
Alex didn't want to keep sticking with them. Now that they already knew the real goal, staying here was a waste of time.
They also understood the danger in this system now. That was why they had started using their abilities, but doing it quietly.
Mingyue glanced back at the squad.
"Still, the Empire is so stingy. Distributing resources like that. Aren't they rich after winning the war?"
"They are," Alex said. "But it's still limited. I don't know how it's for the royal family and the nobles, but this kind of system reduces corruption."
Alex kept walking, looking at he ruined city.
He started thinking about using a similar system on his own people.
