    Chapter 307

    Yashan was stunned.

    Boss Wei spent nearly all of his time shut inside the laboratory, immersed in research, rarely interacting with the outside world.

    Meanwhile, Yashan spent his days gathering intelligence, organizing documents, and constantly analyzing the Resistance's motives, yet he still couldn't understand what they were truly trying to achieve.

    And yet...

    The one who never left the laboratory understood everything.

    The one who searched everywhere remained completely confused.

    As expected of Boss Wei.

    As expected of the God of Genesis.

    He was simply unbelievable.


    ---

    After calming himself, Yashan asked curiously,

    "Boss Wei... what exactly is the Resistance's goal?"


    ---

    Su Hao answered casually,

    "Probably things like... honor and faith."


    ---

    "Honor?"

    Yashan froze.

    The moment he understood the meaning of that word, his anger toward the Resistance flared even more violently.

    Just for some vague concept called honor...

    They were willing to kidnap countless innocent children every year.

    Those children vanished without a trace.

    No one knew what fate awaited them.

    All...

    For honor?

    How could such a thing possibly deserve to be called honor?


    ---

    His face filled with confusion.

    He shook his head.

    "Boss Wei..."

    "I don't understand."


    ---

    Su Hao pointed toward the north.

    "Do you know about the Summoner Achievement Road?"


    ---

    Yashan nodded.

    "Yes."

    "It's the ultimate trial for summoners."

    "Anyone who successfully completes it receives the title of Holy Summoner."

    "But what does that have to do with this?"


    ---

    Su Hao shook his head.

    "Yashan..."

    "I suggest you go back to school."

    "Read more."

    "Broaden your knowledge."

    "Expand your way of thinking."

    "It'll greatly help your future."


    ---

    "As a Prophet, your intelligence is extremely high."

    "But your logical reasoning is still too simple."

    "Your knowledge isn't broad enough."

    "So you can't yet understand many of the underlying principles behind things."


    ---

    Looking at the thoughtful Yashan, Su Hao continued,

    "When you can't defeat your enemy..."

    "Set the problem aside for now."

    "Don't rush."


    ---

    "Read more."

    "Learn more."

    "Think more."


    ---

    "When your knowledge reaches a certain level..."

    "Many problems that once seemed impossible to solve..."

    "Will suddenly become obvious."


    ---

    "Reading, learning, and thinking don't merely increase knowledge."

    "They also improve the way you think."


    ---

    "What you're lacking now..."

    "Is a philosophical perspective."

    "Do you understand?"


    ---

    Yashan honestly shook his head.

    "I don't understand what you mean by logical reasoning or philosophical perspective."

    "But I understand what you're trying to tell me."

    "I need to read more."

    "Learn more."

    "Think more."

    "I'm sure I'll understand someday."


    ---

    Su Hao smiled.

    He knew Yashan genuinely accepted his advice.

    That was one of Yashan's greatest strengths.

    Although he came from humble beginnings and lacked education...

    He was never afraid of admitting what he didn't know.

    Whenever he encountered something he didn't understand...

    He simply asked.

    Without embarrassment.

    Without pretending.

    People like that...

    Were rare.


    ---

    Smiling, Su Hao said,

    "Since you've understood that much..."

    "Let's continue talking about honor and faith."


    ---

    "First question."

    "Is the Summoner Achievement Road dangerous?"


    ---

    Yashan answered immediately,

    "Extremely dangerous."

    "They say even high-level summoners have very little chance of surviving."


    ---

    Su Hao nodded.

    "Since it's so dangerous..."

    "Why do countless summoners still challenge it every single year?"

    "Wouldn't living be better?"


    ---

    Yashan hesitated.

    "...Because of honor?"


    ---

    Su Hao nodded.

    "Partly."

    "Honor is something you'll gradually understand after reading more."

    "It's engraved deep within human nature."

    "People have pursued it throughout history."


    ---

    "Now think about this."


    ---

    "They know they'll probably die."

    "They still choose to go."

    "Why?"


    ---

    Su Hao smiled faintly.

    "I'm not them."

    "So I don't know exactly what they're thinking."


    ---

    "But..."

    "If we ignore their thoughts and look only at their actions..."

    "We can reach one conclusion."


    ---

    "Whatever they gain from taking that path..."

    "In their eyes..."

    "It is more important than life itself."


    ---

    Yashan slowly nodded.

    He understood.


    ---

    Su Hao continued,

    "If someone values something more than their own life..."

    "Do you think they'd value the lives of strangers?"


    ---

    "The lives of children they've never even met..."

    "Simply aren't within the scope of their concern."


    ---

    After pausing briefly, Su Hao added,

    "Actually..."

    "I can understand people like them."


    ---

    "In a sense..."

    "I'm the same type of person."


    ---

    "The only difference..."

    "Is that they express it in a far more extreme way."


    ---

    Yashan nodded silently.


    ---

    "So..."

    "I recommend reading human history."

    "Study humanity from ancient times until now."


    ---

    "When you understand human nature..."

    "And how morality evolved..."

    "You'll understand what I'm talking about."


    ---

    "What seems natural and unquestionably correct to you..."

    "Isn't necessarily called 'right.'"


    ---

    "It's more accurate to call it morality."


    ---

    "And whether something is moral..."

    "Has nothing to do with whether it's objectively right or wrong."


    ---

    Finally, Su Hao concluded,

    "So regarding the Resistance kidnapping children..."

    "I won't simply say they're right or wrong."


    ---

    "I'll say their actions violate the law."

    "They're cruel."

    "They're immoral."


    ---

    "If you can't understand this distinction..."

    "You'll never understand their goals..."

    "Their faith..."

    "Or how to destroy them mentally."


    ---

    Yashan became even more confused.

    He scratched his head and asked honestly,

    "Boss Wei..."

    "I still don't fully understand."

    "But I'll read more."


    ---

    "So..."

    "What should I do now?"


    ---

    Su Hao smiled.

    "You've returned to the original question."


    ---

    "What exactly is your goal?"


    ---

    Yashan answered without hesitation,

    "Destroy the Resistance."


    ---

    Su Hao nodded.

    "Since physical destruction and intimidation don't work..."

    "Then destroy them at the source."


    ---

    "Raise them onto a pedestal..."

    "And then completely shatter the honor and faith they pride themselves on."


    ---

    "Whatever they rely upon..."

    "Whatever they take pride in..."

    "We'll destroy it."


    ---

    "We'll make their achievements worthless."

    "We'll trample their dignity into the ground."


    ---

    Yashan's face flushed with excitement.

    "What exactly do they pursue?"


    ---

    Su Hao answered plainly,

    "I don't know."


    ---

    Yashan blinked.

    "...?"


    ---

    Su Hao shrugged.

    "Why should I know?"

    "What do their personal pursuits have to do with me?"


    ---

    Yashan hurriedly asked,

    "Then... how do we destroy their dignity?"


    ---

    Su Hao smiled.

    "Haven't you heard the saying?"


    ---

    "The ones who truly destroy an old order..."

    "Are rarely its direct enemies."


    ---

    "We only need to use more advanced knowledge."


    ---

    "Give everyone the opportunity to enter the Secondary Star."

    "Give everyone the opportunity to obtain powerful summoned beasts."

    "Give everyone the opportunity to fight alongside them."

    "Compete with them."


    ---

    "Turn everything the Resistance monopolizes..."

    "Into something everyone can freely possess."


    ---

    "Make it commonplace."

    "Make it worthless."


    ---

    "Completely overturn the world they depend on."


    ---

    "Then tell me..."


    ---

    "What honor will they have left?"

    "What faith?"

    "What pride?"

    "What dignity?"


    ---

    "We won't even need to destroy them."

    "They'll collapse on their own."


    ---

    Yashan's entire body trembled with excitement.

    His face was flushed red.

    "Boss Wei..."

    "Teach me!"

    "I want to learn!"


    ---

    Unexpectedly...

    Su Hao immediately poured cold water over him.

    "You can't."


    ---

    "In your current state..."

    "You simply aren't capable of learning it."

    "Give up."


    ---

    Yashan stood there blankly.

    After a long silence, he sighed.

    "If only I'd spent all these years studying instead..."


    ---

    Su Hao shook his head.

    "Even if you had..."

    "It wouldn't have been enough."


    ---

    "Without forty or fifty years of accumulated knowledge..."

    "You still wouldn't understand."


    ---

    "But that's fine."


    ---

    "If you can't learn it..."

    "I'll help you."


    ---

    Hope immediately returned to Yashan's face.

    "Thank you, Boss Wei!"

    "So..."

    "What should I do now?"


    ---

    Su Hao replied,

    "You're still underage."

    "So for now..."

    "You don't need to do anything."


    ---

    "Read."

    "Study."

    "Continue enriching yourself."


    ---

    "When you become an adult..."

    "Register a company."


    ---

    Yashan asked,

    "What kind of company?"


    ---

    After thinking for a moment...

    Su Hao replied,

    "Let's call it..."

    "Pet House Technology Company."
