章 75: Chapter 75, 3 Warnings

Mondok knew what the right course of action was, he just didn't dare to take it.

There was no other reason, simply the fear of death.

Hesitant and wavering, but as he floundered, Gu Hang's steps were so firm, and they were getting closer and closer.

He knew this, and as time passed, he began to realize that he couldn't hesitate any longer.

At this point, making a choice, even the wrong one, wouldn't be worse than doing nothing at all.

He really didn't dare to face the governor's dignity and the threat of the Star Realm warriors in person; but he couldn't surrender to the governor either, that option was no longer available; he was also unwilling to give up the current situation and retreat back into the inner city, which would amount to a complete loss of face. A general who abandoned his troops would never again earn their loyalty, and then the governor might actually be able to take command of the troops by asserting his moral high ground.
