Chapter 2674 New Balance!
"Stop, stop, stop, I have done too much philosophical speculation these days, and now my brain hurts."
Li Yao gently rubbed his temples, squinted his eyes and said, "Allow me to wait for two days, let's deal with such a complicated issue again, and see how we can increase our deterrent power, okay?"
"I'm afraid not."
In the depths of Xiao Ming's eyes, the light flickered rapidly, "Uncle Boxing King sent a message that the three-party communication channel between the Thunder Fleet, the Arsonist United Fleet, and the Golden Crystal Tower has basically been set up, and you can communicate with Boss Bai and General Lei at any time." Hold a tripartite teleconference—both of them are eager to contact Dad, and Boss Bai said that there is a faint change in the Thunder Fleet, Dad must be careful!"
"What does it mean that there is a faint change?"
Li Yao's head hurt even more, and he said helplessly, "Lei Chenghu won't be crossing the river so soon and tearing down the bridge, right?"
"That's not the case, anyway..."
Xiao Ming said, "Boss Bai and General Lei please talk to Dad personally!"
Driven by the two little guys, more than a dozen battle puppets swarmed up, forming a circle around the three of Li Yao, shooting out a crystal-clear mysterious light from their crystal eyes, condensing into the appearance of Boss Bai in mid-air.
"Li Yao!"
Boss Bai looked distraught, and when he saw Li Yao, he immediately called out, "To what extent do you have control over Tianjixing? Have you completely controlled the Imperial City, the Senate, and several important military bases and arsenals? Hurry up and control these key facilities, they can't be handed over to the Thunder Fleet, or even landed by those guys from the Thunder Fleet, understand?"
"Boss Bai, what happened?"
Li Yao was taken aback, "Isn't it possible that you and General Lei are fighting so quickly because of the uneven division of the royal fleets of the four major families?"
"Hmph, even if it hasn't caught fire yet, it's almost here!"
Boss Bai's face was so gloomy that water dripped down, and he gritted his teeth, "Lei Chenghu does not allow our Arsonist United Fleet to control the No. Going to Base No. 9, it is clear that it is preparing for the demolition of bridges across the river!"
"this……"
Li Yao hadn't fully figured out what was going on, Lei Chenghu's expressionless image, surrounded by gunpowder, also appeared in the light curtain.
He stared at Li Yao with a look of wishing to "eat your flesh alive".
Li Yao was horrified by him, and smiled reluctantly: "Then what, General Lei, are you still angry with me? I've said it all, the reason why I want to play Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi in such a sacred and glorious place as the imperial capital." Fuck...*****, I had no choice but to make such a bad move. I really didn’t intend to take this as a blow to the Taoist heart of the cultivators. In fact, I respect the Dao of Cultivation very much. I really respect it. I never thought about it. If you want to blaspheme it, you don't need to put on such a murderous look every time you see me, do you?"
Lei Chenghu stared at Li Yao for a long time, finally looked back, and said coldly: "We are naturally very grateful for your help in quelling the chaos in the imperial capital, but this is not a reason for you to take credit for your pride and act recklessly. After all, this is the country of immortal cultivators and the capital of the empire of true humans. Everything should be regarded as our side!
"Considering your outstanding contribution this time, when we divide the ownership of the spoils, we have tried our best to favor your side - a large number of main battleships of the four major families' royal fleets have all been assigned to your fleet sequence, And now, the largest No. 9 base on the orbit around the celestial pole has been cleared for your station, and we have done our best! If you are still dissatisfied with this arrangement, then the responsibility for the breakdown of the alliance really should not be. I will bear it!"
"Hmph, General Lei, do you think someone is a three-year-old?"
Hearing Lei Chenghu's accusation, Boss Bai sneered again and again, "You also know that our Arsonist Fleet is a guest army and is in a state of isolation and helplessness in the empire. To my battle order, but lack of ammunition, fuel and crew, is it a pile of scrap iron? What use do I need so many starships?
"And the so-called largest ninth base is also empty, with nothing. Once my fleet anchors there, all the supplies will be supplied by you. It is equivalent to being stuck in the throat by you immortal cultivators. You can Cut off our supplies!
"I don't want to do this kind of stupid thing that people do it for the knife and I do it for the fish. The United Arsonist Fleet must anchor at the first base and build our own material delivery channel between the surface of the planet and the orbital base. , this is not a request, but an announcement!"
"Is it as simple as just for supplies?"
Lei Chenghu narrowed his eyes, and also sneered disdainfully, "The reason why you have to choose the first base to anchor is not because it is the closest to the surface of the planet, and it is always in a synchronous orbit above the Imperial City and the Senate, which is the most convenient Are you launching an attack on the Celestial Pole Star?"
"Don't worry, we won't launch an attack on Tianji Star, that would be a stupid move to seek our own death."
Bai Lao Dao, "But we also have to beware of someone crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. As the saying goes, 'the bird is hidden, the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked'. You immortal cultivators are best at playing this trick. Now that Wu Yingqi is dead, no matter whether the Ace Fleet or the United The fleet has fallen into the hands of your innovative immortal cultivators, and your situation is very good. It seems that the use value of us cultivators has been squeezed out, right? How do I know that you will not kill donkeys?"
"Then how do I know that after you occupy the first base and take control of the best position to attack Tianjixing, you won't do stupid things?"
Lei Chenghu became furious, and slammed his chest with a steel arm, "Mr. Lei guarantees with his reputation and the dignity of a soldier, I never thought of doing such stupid things as crossing rivers, demolishing bridges, killing donkeys, me and Jing Lei The fleet will do whatever it takes to ensure your safety!
"But you also have to consider my pressure - the empire is not decided by me alone, and the soldiers' obedience and even worship to me are also conditional! In order to eliminate the more evil enemies, temporarily cooperate with a small group of practitioners , This is one thing, but let this small group of cultivators stay in the heart of the empire, and even condense into a sharp blade to pierce the heart of the empire, this, this is absolutely impossible!
"If this kind of thing is allowed to happen, I really can't explain it to all the cultivators. Can you cultivators imagine that the most elite fleet of cultivators is stationed above your capital at all times?"
"That's different. Now the overall strength of the empire is far superior to that of the federation. Only by maintaining a certain degree of threat to the heart of the empire at all times can we temporarily achieve a 'balance of terror'."
Boss Bai was unmoved, and still said coldly, "Only a 'balance of terror' can bring about peace and cooperation—this is my bottom line, and there is no room for any compromise!"
"So--"
Lei Chenghu sighed, "Our short-lived alliance seems to be broken in advance."
"seems like it."
An excited smile appeared on Boss Bai's face, and his eyes shone like a poisonous blade, "Last time, everyone was acting, and neither of them showed their 100% strength. This time, let me see clearly, 'God of War' The name, is it really worthy of the name!"
Seeing that the two fleet commanders were at war with each other, Li Yao hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt: "Wait, wait, wait, don't worry, the four major families' ace fleets have suffered a crushing defeat, but the four major families' lairs are still in danger." Unscathed, the civil war has not yet ended, and the main fleet of the Holy League has not yet appeared. You are not so stupid that you will kill each other at this time, right?
"Boss Bai, I'm not talking about you. You are really wrong to talk about this matter—our Arsonist United Fleet is indeed a guest army here. From a legal point of view, it is Her Royal Highness the Queen and General Lei Chenghu who invited them. Come to help, now we have neither the ability, nor do we want to turn our back on customers, right?
"The imperial capital will always be handed over to General Lei and other reformist immortal cultivators. Naturally, we will do as we please. Wherever the master tells us to anchor, we will anchor there. How can there be any reason to pick and choose?
"What's more, it's already very difficult for the vast majority of immortal cultivators to accept a fleet of cultivators to fight side by side with them. If you still have to put on an aggressive posture, and can attack Tianji Star at any time, who can bear it? , If I were a cultivator, I wouldn't be able to bear it either."
"Li Yao, you—"
Boss Bai looked at Li Yao in disbelief, "I remember the Spider Nest Star in the Flying Star Realm. When you and I met for the first time, you played the trick of 'horror balance' to perfection. Why are you demented now? up?
"Yes, Wu Yingqi is dead, but all the secrets of the cultivators and even the Xingyao Federation have been exposed to the cultivators, including the existence of the Arsonist United Fleet, which is no longer a secret. The comprehensive strength of the empire and the federation is so Unbalanced, how can everyone cooperate? Do you want to maintain the future of the Federation and the fate of thousands of people, including our relatives, on Lei Chenghu's promise?
"It's not a question of whether we want to believe it, but that none of us have the right to believe Lei Chenghu, do you understand?"
"Of course I understand."
Li Yao said softly, "But even if the United Arsonist Fleet occupies the first base, it's useless, or rather redundant, so I still strongly recommend that you obey General Lei's order and not cause friction between friendly forces.
"Of course, in exchange, General Lei, the Arsonist Combined Fleet can be stationed anywhere you designate, and all key facilities on the entire Celestial Pole, including the Imperial City, the Senate, and the Institute of Advanced Magic Weapons, can all be left intact. Handed over to you, only here, the Golden Crystal Tower, I'm sorry, this place is too important, I hope it will be set up as a 'demilitarized zone', and no military forces will be allowed to enter it temporarily. After the four major families and the Holy League are completely resolved , we can slowly consider how to solve the problem of its ownership.”
"Swish Swish Swish Swish!"
Li Yao mobilized countless data tampered with by the bloody heart demon to Lei Chenghu and Boss Bai respectively, and explained to them the current state of the Golden Crystal Pagoda, including his identity as the "master of the Golden Crystal Pagoda".
