After listening to Lin Fei's words, Elder Qin shook his head and said, "Lin Fei, we don't want you to agree to us like this; we hope you will think it over carefully before agreeing to us."
Lin Fei nodded and said, "Since the Commander said so, Commander may as well speak first, and I will consider how this request is."
"Lin Fei, before Elder Qin asks you, I want to ask you a few things," Elder Wu said.
Lin Fei looked at Elder Wu and said, "Ask away, I won't hide anything I know."
Elder Wu smiled and said, "It's not a serious matter, I just want to ask if you know about the current world situation?"
"World situation?"
Regarding this, Lin Fei really hadn't studied it; from the time he joined the army, his only purpose was to kill the murderer who murdered his parents, revenge was his only goal. He never thought about achieving great things, let alone reaching the peak of the country, stepping onto the world stage, nor had he studied the world situation.
Lin Fei shook his head and said, "I don't know, and I haven't studied these things either."
Upon hearing Lin Fei's answer, the other elders couldn't help but shake their heads.
Elder Wu said, "That's also why we admire you. You may not know, but the force you hold in your hands is extremely powerful."
"Elder Wu, are you referring to the mercenaries? They aren't really strong, are they?" Lin Fei couldn't help but speak.
The ten elders shook their heads simultaneously. In their view, Lin Fei didn't know much, or one could say Lin Fei didn't understand what the world's leaders were concerned about.
"The mercenary organizations in the world, for many countries, are seen as a group of savages, thieves, and robbers! Villains who commit crimes without scruples. Yet it is undeniable that they are the strongest force in this world," Elder Sun said.
Elder Wu chimed in, "Lin Fei, originally there were three major mercenary groups in this world, which have existed for a hundred years; but you are different. The Hell's Judgement Mercenary Corps you established changed the situation of the three-way dominance into one of four great powers, and your rise exceeded the expectations of the high ranks of all countries."
Lin Fei nodded, compared to those world mercenary groups that have existed for nearly a century, they are indeed very young and very rapid, catching many countries and even the three major mercenary groups off guard.
"Moreover, our Mo Country hasn't been founded very long, and it hasn't been long since we resolved our internal turmoil. Therefore, in terms of world mercenary organizations, our Mo Country hasn't participated in any. While the three major mercenary groups seem uninvolved with any country, it's undeniable that they exist in secret under the control of other countries. You can imagine that with a single command from a country, these mercenary groups could start a war, plunging the world into chaos!"
Elder Sun said, "This kind of thing is terrifying; we are old, the ten of us elders are originally comrades-in-arms, and getting to today is definitely not by chance. But what comes next? We are old, and the future of the country still needs to be handed over to you young people."
Lin Fei was silent; Elder Sun said twice that they were old. Indeed, compared to the imagined ten elders, the ten elders before him appeared too old. Although they were all wise, someday, they would still rest in peace.
After the reminder from the ten elders, Lin Fei also understood the intention of the ten elders; the country doesn't have mercenary forces in international circles, and Hell's Judgement is clearly a very good option, so the ten elders came to him.
And Elder Qin's summary undoubtedly confirmed Lin Fei's speculation and the answer Lin Fei wanted to know.
"The Hell's Judgement Mercenary Corps is the key to supplementing our Mo Country's shortcomings in international mercenaries, and your actions haven't disappointed us, so we awarded you the rank of Admiral. We called you here to discuss this matter with you. As I said earlier, Hell's Judgement's growth is entirely due to your efforts. We respect any decision you make, and you can operate safely within Mo Country without us interfering or blaming you."
Elder Qin's words undoubtedly relieved Lin Fei of his worries; Lin Fei's decisions were left to him. The ten elders dissolved Lin Fei's resentment towards Mo Country, at least even if Lin Fei chose not to associate with Mo Country, he likely wouldn't trouble Mo Country in the future, and might even help out in times of crisis, which was sufficient.
At this moment, Lin Fei had to carefully consider; however, afterward, he spoke again, "Elders, I might not be able to make the decisions, after all, Hell's Judgement is not just mine, and if it were only me, there might not be today's accomplishments."
The ten elders exchanged glances; Elder Qin asked, "Are you referring to Crin Meka?"
Elder Wu suddenly said, "Didn't you sleep with her? She should already be your woman. Would she really defy such a choice?"
Then Elder Sun spoke up, "Elder Wu, you don't understand. Foreigners have relatively open-minded beliefs. Having slept together doesn't necessarily mean marriage, marriage doesn't necessarily mean staying together, staying together doesn't necessarily mean having children. That's why I hate those foreign ideologies; although one shouldn't be conservative in thought, being overly open is no different from beasts, moderate is best."
Lin Fei nodded and said, "And all the elders should be aware of her identity, right?"
"Iron Country's Clinton family's talented young girl, and she's also ambitious," Elder Qin said.
Although not by Lin Fei's side, and having never seen Crin Meka, everyone around Lin Fei's data was known clearly.
"Moreover, after she helped me, she basically had no demands of me; at that time, she simply helped me. The more this is the case, the more I worry." Lin Fei thought back, indeed, many aspects were worth worrying about. Before he was focused solely on the Mercenary Group, he wouldn't care about the political issues thereafter.
Sometimes he thought, if Little Tiger were around, how great it would be, Little Tiger was a genius in politics, and when Lin Fei didn't understand things before, Little Tiger would talk eloquently. Unfortunately, he was already dead.
"This matter indeed warrants concern. But isn't the Mercenary Group all your brothers? They shouldn't betray you, right?" Elder Qin asked, he also couldn't be certain, after all, people can't see through hearts; it took them more than ten years to be sure about Lin Fei himself, that's why they felt assured using Lin Fei, while others obviously didn't have the qualification to be monitored by them, but now have become one of the most unstable factors.
"Forget it, forget it, the country is my home; at any time, I, Lin Fei, will sacrifice myself to protect my home. So I promise you, as long as Hell's Judgement is in my hands for one day, it will be the mercenary corps of Mo Country!" Lin Fei said.
Upon hearing Lin Fei's words, the ten elders were very pleased; they hadn't misjudged him.
