CATASTROPHE CARD KING
Chapter 908 - Chapter 908: Chapter 282 Emergency Meeting_4Chapter 908: Chapter 282 Emergency Meeting_4
She said, looking at the heavy responsibility that still had not made any statement, like a furious little lion: “The blood we shed now is shed for our descendants! If our descendants live peaceful and happy lives, it’s not because the times have gotten better, but because their ancestors… for the sake of civilization, once cast their heads and spilled their blood in struggle!”
Upon these words.
The large conference room fell silent as a tomb.
For the first time, several Senators felt a sense of guilt.
They even dared not look directly at the younger generation standing in the court.
After a long while, several light coughs.
Ralph Miller, the Family Head of the Miller Family, finally broke the awkwardness, saying, “Carter, it’s easy to say… but war is no child’s play, the actual implementation is much more difficult, there are many more factors to consider…”
He had originally thought that Catherine Carter, being young, had not yet considered the political intrigues, and thus he spoke out to remind her.
Deep down, the Miller Family was inclined to support the war, after all, they had too much information on the Old Continent.
This was an advantage over the other families.
These words seemed to offer a way out.
The other Senators also began to speak up.
“Yes, this issue isn’t so simple. I think it’s better to plan for the long-term.”

“I actually think we can do both. As for Carter’s plan, it’s worth considering, the issue is who will lead this…”
“Hmm. Indeed… We’re not saying we won’t fight. But we must first survive to plan for the future.”
“…”
The Old Foxes also took the opportunity to step down, resuming their previous discussions.
However, once people start thinking about backing down, it becomes very hard to muster up courage again.
Catherine knew that if the discussion went on like this, it would surely fall back into the previous impasse.
No one wanted to step forward, and in the end, it would inevitably come to nothing.
These old guys would surely still choose to preserve their current selves.
So without waiting for the others to finish speaking, Marshal Camer spoke up: “I actually think Carter is right. Some people really can’t step down from their high positions of power. Do you remember what we were fighting for two hundred years ago when we each overthrew the old dynasty? For freedom and civilization. Now what? Tsk tsk… Some people have stayed in the Rich Ore Layer for so long, they have lost all sense of adventure and progress!”
The Old Man was not like Catherine, who still gave others face.
When he said this, it was as if he stripped away the fancy gentleman’s cloak covering the Senators’ corpulent bodies.
All five Senators’ expressions turned dark simultaneously.
Finally, someone could not hold back and retorted: “If the Lionheart Family is all about righteousness, then the front line at Gold-digging Dock happens to need troops…”
Everyone knew that if a real battle broke out, Gold-digging Dock would surely be the front line.
To be stationed there meant almost certain death.
No one dared to volunteer for this mission.
Mentioning it seemed to allow them to regain some face.
Your Lionheart Family was just cursing fiercely, weren’t they?
What now?
However, before the smirk could spread across those chubby faces,
Catherine, still present in the conference hall, did not shrink back but cried out boldly, “My uncles, though I am but a woman, I will not retreat! After today, I will lead my troops to the front lines of the Old Continent. If the crisis does not abate, we shall never return!”
Her words rang out with a Clang.
It was as if an invisible Magical Power had struck the Soul of the people present.
Having said this, she turned and left.
Her departing figure was brave and domineering.
The crowd of old gentlemen in luxurious suits were left speechless.
Although Camer felt pained, in his eyes lay more pride and admiration for bravery.
He had briefly talked with his granddaughter before coming.
At that time, Catherine had already put forward this idea.
If the enemy could not cross the rift in a short period of time, it would surely be a protracted war.
Camer also knew that the Old Continent was the future, and if there was any hope of winning the war, they absolutely could not give up.
The Old Man turned his gaze from the figure of Catherine and looked at the several people in the conference hall, saying solemnly, “Gentlemen, since you are not willing to go, the Lionheart Family will go! I want people, resources, everything you can provide! At this critical moment, it’s up to you to decide…”
This time, the Lionheart Family, for the sake of civilization, staked everything.
