Immortal Soul of Steel

After Zhanbudu briefly introduced Lin Youde and others to Tiger King and Holy Tree, Tiger King greeted Zhanbudu and others.

"Since these are your partners, let's go back immediately without delay."

"Now that these guys from the Alex Empire and the people of the Order Church are fighting to the death, it is the best time for us to sneak into the Creation Mountain again and take back the power of the Seven Dragons."

If it were before, Zhanbudu would probably have agreed at this moment and couldn't wait to follow Tiger King and Holy Tree back.

But now that he has become Lin Youde's apprentice, Zhanbudu has developed an attitude of asking the master when he is undecided in front of the master.

It's not that he has no opinion, but that he respects the elders. In the presence of the elders, it is impolite for a junior to make a decision casually.

Especially when this elder is a big man like Lin Youde.

"Master, Tiger King invites us to go back to find Master Shibalagu and Hu Meizi, who are my former partners, what do you think?"

Lin Youde did not answer immediately, but looked at Tiger King deeply.

Even though he was very uncomfortable with the strong negative emotions near the battlefield, he could not successfully mobilize the new human's spiritual perception to perceive other people's emotions.

Lin Youde's intuition as a warrior still felt that there was something wrong with this Tiger King.

Of course, Lin Youde knew Tiger King. He was a key figure throughout the trilogy of Demon Heroes.

Although Lin Youde had only watched two of them, he had at least read the plot of the other one.

Lin Youde had no ill will towards this character who seemed to be a villain but was actually the second male lead.

Lin Youde also remembered what Tiger King said about being split into two.

It happened to be the third part of Demon Heroes, Super Demon Heroes, when Tiger King changed back from Xiang Longzi and was brainwashed, he learned about the death of Sheng Longfei and was heartbroken, so he split into two. He became two separate individuals.

This animation was introduced to China when Lin Youde was a child, so Lin Youde had seen it and had a deep memory.

Therefore, Lin Youde had no doubts about Tiger King's statement that he was split into two and became two people.

But as a warrior, Lin Youde felt that something was wrong with the Tiger King.

It was just that the negative emotions on the battlefield were too strong, so Lin Youde could not sense the Tiger King's emotions, and did not know what he was like now, or what he was planning.

But when something was wrong with the Tiger King, Lin Youde would not easily believe him.

Unlike the protagonists who knew everything about Senbudu and Haruka Daichi, who were absolutely kind and righteous. The Tiger King was a villain at first, but he fell in love with Senbudu's friend Shinobu Humiko and wanted to marry this little loli as his wife, so he became Senbudu's friend.

In other words, this animation is for children, and it was produced too early.

If it was the time before Lin Youde traveled through time, it would definitely make countless people shout "Oh my god, there is a cow!".

Because in this animation, Shinobu Humiko basically plays the leading role, that is, the heroine.

Such a heroine is favored by the male No. 2 and is married to him. No matter which time he saves the world, the male No. 1, Senbudu, goes back to the original world, leaving the female No. 1 and the male No. 2 behind.

If the story unfolds like this, anyone who saw it before Lin Youde traveled through time would shout "Use a cow".

Of course, Shinobu Himiko is too young, not even 10 years old, a standard child, who doesn't even know what love and marriage are, and most of the main characters in the whole story are elementary school students, so shouting "cow" is a bit extreme.

But none of this matters. What matters is that although the role of Tiger King in the original work has many positive aspects, his initial motives are impure, which makes Lin Youde, who liked to bring the protagonist into the story when he was a child, naturally have no good feelings towards this person who wants to steal Senbudu's wife, but full of disgust.

As for why Lin Youde, who was also an elementary school student at the time, was so precocious about such things, I can only say that some things really depend on talent...

Ahem, I'm getting off topic.

In short, because of the impression he had from watching the anime before, Lin Youde didn't have a high degree of favorability towards Tiger King.

In addition, now that the other party made him feel something was wrong, Lin Youde naturally would not choose to believe him.

But the other party was the second male lead in the original work and a good friend of Senbudu. If he casually rejected the other party's invitation, it would be a bit strange.

So, Lin Youde pretended to be silent and looked at Anmali.

Although Anmali had not yet recovered her memory, she spoke quickly after seeing Lin Youde's lip language.

"Don't rush to go back."

"Brother Youde, let's find a way to stop this war first."

When Anmali said this, Tiger King was confused: "Ah? Stop the war?"

Anmali looked at the battlefield in the distance where magic, beams, and artillery fire were taking off, nodded slightly, and said.

"Well, stop this war."

"We already know the motivation of this war. Both sides have their own interests."

"But those interests, to put it bluntly, belong to the superiors of the Alec Empire and the Church of Order, not what these warriors want at all."

"The warriors of both sides fighting here are either brainwashed or mechanically transformed and have lost their own thinking."

"These people don't know what they are doing. They died here in vain for the ambitions of those superiors. It's really pitiful."

"Moreover, among these people in the Order Church, many are our compatriots from the Blue Water Planet."

"As people from the Blue Water Planet, we cannot sit back and watch our compatriots being used by others and sacrificed as consumables here."

"So, Brother Youde, help them."

Ann Marie's words were half true and half false, but to others, they were truly caring for others.

Combined with Ann Marie's weak and beautiful appearance, and her soft and slightly sad voice, she has a glorious image of a Virgin Mary with a burst of Virgin Mary's heart.

Not to mention others, just Lin Youde felt that Ann Marie at this moment was more like a saint with compassion for the world, rather than a pilot flying the Jelgard to fight.

If he didn't know that Ann Marie's words were made up by him and asked Ann Marie to help him find an excuse not to follow the Tiger King back, Lin Youde would have believed it himself.

And this excuse was well-founded and in line with Lin Youde's original position of a righteous hero who wanted to save his compatriots.

Therefore, to those who knew about these things, such as Senbudu, Haruka Daichi, etc., there was nothing wrong with it.

So, Senbudu and Haruka Daichi also responded.

Senbudu: "Yes, there are our compatriots among the people of the Order Church. We can't just watch them die and do nothing."

Haruka Daichi: "Yes, if it were us, we probably wouldn't be able to do anything in a war of this level. But if it were the master, he would definitely be able to stop them, right?"

PS: The original motivation of Tiger King's whitewashing was not made up by the author. He really fell in love with the heroine Shinobu Himiko. His motives were definitely not pure.

And after being completely whitewashed and turned back into Shoryuko, he still didn't change his nature and wanted to marry a little loli as his wife. He was a complete loli control.

So when the author was a child, he really hated Tiger King. He didn't think he was handsome at all. Instead, he thought he was a complete villain who stole Xiaodu's wife and it would be best to kill him with a sword.

Then, when he saw his mother die in the third part, the author didn't feel sad at all. Instead, he applauded and was accused by his friends of having no sympathy.
