Chapter 1379: A dilemma
How to completely control a race with a high degree of organizational coordination?
The answer is simple!
That is to hold their brains hostage and take control of them.
There is no doubt that for the Anyates, the queen is their brain, the only object of their 100% obedience.
And from a simple conversation, Luke can already confirm that this queen-like life form has obviously secretly built a huge spiritual network to connect each offspring.
As long as she wants, she can read what she wants to see from the other person's memories at any time, and even invade her consciousness to do something unspeakable with the help of the target's eyes, body, and various organs.
It was precisely because of this discovery that Luke decided to take the risk and try to hold the queen hostage, using his life as a threat to force the other party to serve his plan.
Because judging according to the various knowledge and thoughts in his brain, the more he stands on a high place and holds power and power, the more afraid of death.
In order to escape death, they will often do some very despicable things, even selling out the interests of the entire race.
Clearly, Luke was right.
After a series of temptations and intimidations, the queen finally chose to compromise and give orders to the surviving descendants through the psychic network to enter a state of all-out war.
In less than half a year, the Anyats, who had lost more than 60 percent of their population, had recovered their population to the previous level by virtue of their frenzied fertility and rapid growth.
And instead of hiding honestly, the newborns attacked the intruder's location once again after a brief training.
The suppression force field device that the Darents had built with great difficulty with advanced technology was once again devastated.
They didn't even have time to react before they were overwhelmed by the roaring enemy.
Astound!
It's hard to hide the shock!
Several high-ranking officials, including the Speaker, widened their eyes as the newly established strongholds were destroyed and disintegrated, and the huge plan had just begun to die inexplicably.
They couldn't even dream of why these backward races living in the underground world could grasp their movements in such a short period of time, and even dare to take the initiative to attack?
Isn't the other party afraid of another "resonance"?
With a series of doubts and incomprehensions, the second emergency meeting of the expeditionary force was held in the camp.
The gloomy Speaker directly omitted the opening polite remarks and shouted at one of the shapeshifter leaders, "Tell me, what the hell is going on? Why do our enemies react so quickly? Didn't you just say some time ago that they are shrinking deeper into the ground?"
"Sorry, Your Excellency, we have done our best. Look, here's the list of the shapeshifters killed in recent times. The enemy seems to be able to somehow discern which ones are really our own people and which ones are in our disguise. The leader of the shapeshifters smiled wryly as he placed a black stone slab on the table.
After a short circulation, everyone who saw it had an undisguised surprise on their faces.
You must know that as the strongest infiltration tool, the shapeshifter has always been the ace vanguard of the expeditionary force to collect intelligence and stir up bloody storms within the enemy.
But this time, they had just made a move, and they had already lost more than half, and most of them were discovered just after they lurked, and then they were besieged to death.
"Incredible! How did they do this?" asked a senior commander with a frown.
The leader of the shapeshifters shook his head helplessly: "I don't know, even the members who fled from the front line can't tell what happened. All they knew was that these enemies, who were still retreating from the retreat in a hurry, suddenly began to methodically rebuild their homes in certain places, as if they had received some order, and at the same time sped up their speed and desperately gave birth. ”
"Didn't your people notice anything out of the ordinary, like a courier, or some kind of magical communication?" the commander asked, apparently still a little unrelenting.
In his opinion, this abnormal behavior was clearly instructed and ordered by a higher level.
I think it may be necessary for us to reassess the enemy. It is clear that the Anyats are used for a force that we do not understand, and that this power is prevalent among them. A councillor tapped lightly on the table to make a summary.
"What do you mean...... Retreat?" Another member cautiously glanced at the Speaker out of the corner of his eye.
At this moment, anyone who is not a fool can feel that this old guy who holds the supreme power of the entire civilization is like a volcano that is about to erupt.
But the opposition congressman apparently didn't care about this, and replied with a sneer: "Of course we must retreat, otherwise we will continue to waste our precious resources and those well-trained warriors and spellcasters?" ”
"Are you talking about me?" the Speaker narrowed his eyes, his pupils flashing dangerously.
"No, you are mistaken, my Excellency, I am only talking about those who put their rights above the whole civilization. "The parliamentarians showed no weakness in their-for-tat.
Just as the two of them began to spark their eyes and were about to go further, the light in the environment suddenly dimmed.
Next Second......
A black shadow appeared out of thin air, and in a low, hoarse voice, sarcastically: "Aha! What did I see? The power struggle! The parliament, which was responsible for the rise and fall of the entire civilization, had fallen to this point. ”
"It's you?!"
The Speaker's face changed suddenly, and he subconsciously grabbed the powerful magic item that he kept in his custody.
Seeing the other party's move, the black shadow suddenly sneered and pursed his lips: "Are you so afraid of me? Afraid of me? You even have to rely on that thing to give yourself guts? Thousands of years ago, the Speaker could easily suppress us with his own strength." ”
"Shut up! This is the council! It's not your turn to interject yet. Explain your intentions!" the Speaker interrupted unceremoniously.
"What a disappointing time. Well, since you want to know what I'm here for, I'll tell you. We in the Shadow Guard already have clues about those two boys. But to make sure I can bring them both back alive, I need some authorization, some immunity to be exact. After all, they made such a big move this time, and they didn't look like they could be safe and sound, so the resistance might be very fierce, and they even chose to commit suicide in the end......"
