Chapter 1073: Choice
After hanging up the video call with Chen Mo, Karn had a dark face.
This expression is difficult to see in him, as a superior person, he can control his emotions, and his usual decision-making is calm enough, and it seems that everything can be taken calmly.
Even in the face of the pressure of the Black Pupil Civilization, he can calm down and think about the pros and cons.
But when he makes a decision, he will act vigorously. The decisive execution of the traitor and the intelligence personnel arranged by the two god-level civilizations was a decision made by him.
The moment the decision came out, it meant that he tore his face with the two major civilizations.
Originally thought that the balance was expected, who would have thought that the entry of the Dark Forest Civilization had plunged his hopeful marching ant group into an unprecedented crisis.
Now he has a choice to make.
The Ten Cities Alliance exists in name only, and if he chooses to ally with the Black Pupil Civilization, he may step down, and may even be judged by the Black Pupil Civilization in exchange for the peace of the Demon City, and then change someone to power.
Chen Mo's words were also what he thought psychologically, but he said them unabashedly, which always made people unhappy.
Choosing to ally with the Black Pupil Civilization, they are at a disadvantage. There may be temporary security, but in the long run, it is definitely not a wise choice.
Hitomi Qing is ambitious, with the ambition to annex the universe, and will never be willing to ally with these weak people.
As Chen Mo said, they may be used as cannon fodder, as the vanguard of the Tongqing universe, to consume other strong opponents.
If they choose the Black Pupil Civilization, their first opponent is the marching ants who are now allied with them, how ironic.
The marching ant is a good ally and does not have to worry about betrayal.
Because the crisis faced by the marching ants is greater than them, once they betray, they will lose both, and then they will all be swallowed up by the god-level civilization that is eyeing them.
But the current marching ants are in a critical situation, and if they are not handled well, they may overturn in an instant.
If they continue to ally with the marching ants, when there is a problem with the marching ants, they will not even have the qualifications to be god-level civilization cannon fodder, and they will only destroy the country and destroy the race.
After listening to Karn's account, Ling Xi fell into deep thought, his expression relatively calm.
"If we ally with the Black Pupil Civilization, what will happen to the marching ants?"
"Perdition!" Karn spat out two words, thought for a moment, and said something inappropriate, "Or retreat to the small universe." ”
"They have little universes, what about us? What happened to us? ”
"We may be able to live, but become a kind of dog of the Black Pupil civilization, let us bite whoever bites." Karn said with a grim face, he didn't want to say it, but the reality was so cruel.
Ling Xi was unmoved by this description: "After the marching ants disappeared, who bordered us?" ”
Karn's eyes flickered a few times, and he said, "The White Star Civilization, if there is an accident, there may be the two brothers of the Dark Forest Civilization. ”
"We're caught between several god-level civilizations, what if they make a move?"
Karn was silent, he didn't dare to think further.
Seeing that Karn didn't speak, Ling Xi continued, "We will become the most tragic battlefield here, and may even become the ruins of a cosmic war, and the people in it, I don't need to say more. ”
In terms of war and warfare, Ling Xi, as a general, sees it more thoroughly than Karn.
"It's the same end, why don't we gamble?" Ling Xi said.
"Bet on marching ants?"
"Do we have any other ways to bet? There is a gap between us and the marching ants, but we are their stronger friends to him. And with the Black Pupil Civilization, what are we? A dog-like? I don't want to be their dog, it's the first time I'm alive, so why should I be his dog?
Besides, we don't necessarily lose. If the Nebula Alliance and the marching ants are of the same mind, and our three emerging forces are against the three god-level civilizations, who says that we can't break our wrists? Also, are we sure that Chen Mo really doesn't have any other hole cards? ”
Karn was silent for a long time.
……
"The hand of the White Star Civilization is indeed clever." Luo Fatzi bit his meat leg and was full of emotion: "I'm afraid the marching ants are in trouble this time." ”
Ziyun stared at the star map, her eyes shining: "Is there a way to break the game?" ”
The dozing young man next to him was holding a doll, and there was no movement.
Luo Fatzi put down the meat leg in his hand, picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, before saying: "The key is in the Nebula Alliance and the Ten Cities Alliance, the White Star Civilization has made contact with the Nebula Alliance, and the pupils are also putting pressure on the Ten Cities Alliance. ”
"Not necessarily." Ziyun thought for a moment, shook her head and popped out two words.
"Not necessarily?"
Luo Fatzi looked at Ziyun in confusion, and Zizhong, who was dozing, also woke up for half a minute and looked at Ziyun.
"Could it be that the Star Lord has a way to break the game?"
"When no one is there, you don't need to call me the Star Lord." Ziyun said calmly.
"It's just a title, it's all the same." Luo Fatzi didn't care about Ziyun's words.
"It's not me who has it, it's Chen Mo who has it." Ziyun is very sure.
"Why are you so sure?"
"Aren't you curious where I went some time ago? I'm in the marching ant group, Chen Mo's hometown. ”
As soon as these words came out, Luo Fatzi stared at him in disbelief.
Zizhong, who was dozing, woke up in an instant, and stared at Ziyun with great gossip: "You won't go over to be his little wife, will you?" ”
Luo Fatzi's eyelids jumped, and he slapped a fan-like slap on Zizhong's head: "Sleep your sleep, if you can't speak, don't speak, no one treats you as a mute." ”
Ziyun was speechless at Zizhong's thoughts.
"I lived there for a period of time and experienced the civilized environment in which Chen Mo grew up." Zi Yun's eyes showed a hint of reminiscence: "There, I saw Chen Mo's strength. ”
"Seen his secret weapon or special technology?"
"I've experienced the special technology once." After Zi Yun remembered that her memories and privacy were all read by Chen Mo, her calm face showed a slight unnaturalness.
"What kind of special technology?" Zizhong hugged the doll with a smile on his face.
This time, even Luo Fatzi had some gossip.
"About superpowers." Ziyun didn't take their gaze seriously, and her expression returned to her previous calmness: "He is always so confident and unfathomable, so he must have hole cards this time." ”
Luo Fatzi pondered the message in Ziyun's words.
"What are we supposed to do?" Shige asked.
"Let's cause some trouble for Shirahoshi." Ziyun said categorically.
……
After Chen Mo hung up the phone, he took a deep breath.
Lan and the others in the war room frowned.
They are thinking.
What does Karn mean? Do you want to turn your back on the alliance and go to the side of the Black Pupil Civilization?
They had to have this concern, because the agreement between them and Karn was not advantageous compared to the conditions given by the Black Pupil Civilization, and when it came to joint operations, they needed command, while the Black Pupil Civilization did not.
In addition, what they can provide, the Black Pupil Civilization can also provide, including defending against the White Star Civilization, and it can do better.
If Karn reneged on the alliance agreement, they would be in trouble.
"Do you want to prepare to withdraw troops from the Gulu system?" Arashi asked.
Chen Mo shook his head and said, "No need, but pay attention to the movements of Xi Demon City, Karn is hesitating, and there is no real answer yet." ”
"So what do we do now?" Hibiscus beside Lan asked.
"Wait." Chen Mo said after thinking about it.
What are you waiting for? When waiting for the answer from the Nebula Alliance's side, when he has not determined the attitude of his allies, it is not appropriate to act rashly. Otherwise, once the war department is mobilized, they will turn against it, and the marching ants will be the real trouble.
"Focus on dealing with the two brothers of the Dark Forest Civilization first, the White Star Civilization has no direct contact with us, once we do it, there is still buffer time for us to react. Even if Karn defects and their war forces move to our side, they will have time to react. In the meantime, prepare for the worst. ”
As Chen Mo said, all they can do now is to wait, wait for the situation to be clear, and confirm the enemy and the enemy, so that they can use their skills without scruples, but they must also prepare for the worst.
The quickest preparation was for Karn and the Nebula Alliance to defect.
There was a brief silence in the war room, and then quickly got busy preparing for the worst.
The waiting time is very tormenting, but every life within the marching ant group is tense and does not dare to relax at all, especially the generals on the front line, they are not allowed to fail, and once they fail, they will face an endless abyss.
Soon, news came from the Nebula Alliance, and Tuyun rejected the conditions of the White Star Civilization.
