Chapter 5278 (five thousand two hundred and seventy-eight) only

The man paused here and thought about whether there was anything wrong with what he said. He felt that he was satisfied with it and there was no obvious flaw, so he continued: “Yes, that’s right, absolutely right! I don’t want them to help me. Some blue-armored people… in my eyes are not worthy of helping me. They… are only worthy of being my tools and being used by me. I… I use them to achieve my goals. This… this is my idea.”

“You feel hope when you see the spring over there. Is it because you think you can use them to leave there?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes!” the man said, “That’s right! That’s it… I just feel… I have a hope of using them to leave.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “But you also heard a sound when it was dark before, right?”

“Yes.” said the man.

“That proves that whether or not there is a response to you has no necessary connection with whether there is light in your environment?” said the man with gray hands.

“That’s true.” The man said, “But, but, I still feel that when I can see the light, when I can see the spring, it seems that I have a better chance of using the blue-armored people to leave this place.”

“When there was no light, did you feel that the blue-armored man was moving away from you?” asked the gray-handed man.

“At that time, I did think that they might… stay away from me.” The man said, “But I… didn’t absolutely believe that. I still had other ideas. I just… let myself believe that there were still people who could… hear me when I spoke.”

“Do you still have hope?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“It seems… a little bit.” The man said, “But… it’s hard to say how much hope there is.”

“Why?” asked the Gray Hand Man. “That hope is like… inspired by my instinct to survive.” The man said, “I… I just want to survive. It seems that in this situation, I can’t feel that there is no one around. Once… Once I feel that there is no one around, then… Then I will think that I… I will never be able to leave that kind of place again.”

The Gray Hand Man asked, “Do you think you can only rely on those blue-armored men to escape the darkness and cold?”

That person said, “Rely? Well…it’s not really relying…it’s just…taking advantage.”

The Gray Hand said, “Well, use, just say use. Go on.”

“At that time, I felt… I… couldn’t even move my arms. If I didn’t use those blue-armored men, then… then I really didn’t know how to leave.” said the man.

The Gray Hand said, “At that time, you felt that those people were moving away from you, and you were actually worried that there would be no one else around, right?”

The man said, “A little bit, indeed a little bit. In fact… when I saw the spring moving away from me, I even felt… the hand covering my mouth… seemed… to be moving away from me as well. This… this also made me a little worried.”

“Finally, I’m not covering your mouth anymore, but you don’t think this is a good thing?” asked the man with gray hands.

“I didn’t know… I didn’t know what was going on, and I wasn’t sure if it was the blue-armored man who was covering my mouth, but I had already… determined that it was the blue-armored man who was covering my mouth.” said the man.
