For five minutes, Zhuang Lao didn't speak, he was thinking, thinking about a decision that was important for the Alliance, or for all lives.

For a long time, Zhuang Lao picked up the teacup and took a sip, at this time the tea has been cold because it has been placed there for a long time, and the taste of the cooled tea is not very good. But today, because of what he was thinking about, he didn't even notice that the tea was completely cold.

After drinking the tea and putting it aside, Zhuang Lao hesitated, but still picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and then handed it to En Lao.

"Zheming, give this letter to Qingyu immediately, and let him start doing it immediately." Zhuang Lao said. Elder En's took the letter, didn't read it, and nodded.

"When you come back, immediately convene a nine-star meeting, and I want to announce an important matter." Zhuang Lao said in a deep voice.

En Lao looked at Zhuang Lao's serious appearance, as his old friend for many years, he had already guessed what Zhuang Lao was going to do at this time. What Zhuang Lao said was not to discuss and decide a thing, but to announce a thing, which means that he himself has already paid attention, and looking at the entanglement for so long just now, I am afraid it should be something unreasonable, or rather, it is a bet made in order to deal with the upcoming crisis.

In a technologically advanced place like the Alliance, it is not difficult to inform a message. After Elder Zhuang informed the information, soon, all seven of the nine stars arrived, and the two nine stars, Morchin and Valtier, were in their home planet and assisted in the alliance's mobilization work, so they used quantum communication devices to participate in the meeting remotely.

"Zhuang Xuan, you said that there is something to be announced, what is it? If it's a major event, shouldn't we discuss it collectively? Valtier asked, and just as he was about to say something, Raven said lightly, "Well, in short, let's listen to what Lord Zhuang Xuan has to say, why be so impatient." ”

Hearing the raven speak, Valtier said no more. Among the nine stars, even Zhuang Lao can't let him be so obedient, only the crow can. Crow Yu usually always has a smiling face, a charming look, usually even in the meeting will not say anything specially, plus the strength is ranked relatively low in the nine stars, if it is not for the outstanding ability of group combat, even the strength is not as good as Enzheming Enlao.

But even so, her existence among the nine stars is also very famous, because of the ability of the crow language and the principle of plague. Although the effects of the Plague Principle and the Death Doctrine of the Maple Spirit are different, they also have the same thing, that is, the restraint of life forms.

Therefore, as a Golden Stone Star with strong vitality, Valtier is still a little afraid of the Raven Language. Raven Yu suddenly spoke abnormally at the Nine Star Conference this time, not because she was deliberately disgusting Valtier, but because she saw something from Zhuang Lao's attitude. She had also heard about what had happened recently, and she knew that what Elder Zhuang had decided on his own this time must be related to the recent events.

"First of all, I would like to apologize for my actions this time, and I made a decision without consulting you in advance, because we have no time left, not even a moment's delay."

Hearing Zhuang Lao's tone, everyone's attitude became serious.

"I declare that, from now on, the entire coalition will advance

Enter the state of emergency, and all personnel enter the combat preparation mode. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was silence for a few seconds, and then the discussion sounded.

"Zhuang Xuan, what does this mean! Do you know how resource-starved the league is right now? Many people have not yet recovered from the previous disaster, and it is irresponsible for them to enter a state of emergency now! If you don't give a good reason, we won't agree! Valtier said. This time, it was not only Valtier, but except for Elder Enzheming and Elder Ning Qingyu, the other nine stars all showed puzzled looks.

Zhuang Lao took a few deep breaths, and then said: "I believe you have all heard about the recent events, riots are everywhere, bad news has come out of Tisbal one after another, coupled with the threat of those unknown life forms, the alliance is in internal and external troubles. ”

"And just now, I got the news that the reconnaissance team in Tisball has found traces of those alien life forms in the black dead field."

This news was like a bombshell, detonating in everyone's hearts at the same time, and there was speculation about whether the black dead field was related to the alien life forms that invaded the alliance a long time ago, but because there was no conclusive evidence, no one believed it at the time. Or rather, no one wants to believe it.

The location of the world of Tisball is not too far from the City of Truth, if it is really the same as guessed, then once something happens, the City of Truth is likely to be killed by a surprise attack without even having time to react. But now, this thing that everyone once didn't want to believe has become a reality.

This is not the worst, what is even worse is that not long ago, the strongest team that went to the black dead realm of Tisball to find out the truth was attacked for unknown reasons, including the captain Liu Yi, and all the controllers were unknown. It can be said that they encountered a sudden monster attack in the Black Dead Domain, after all, there was a precedent for the existence of giant dragons there, but now no matter how you think about it, you can only think that Liu Yi was attacked by alien lifeforms in the Black Dead Domain, and all of them died.

If it's just a full death, although it's very sad, it's also a big loss for the alliance, but it's acceptable, but what if it's captured? No one can be sure that those alien lifeforms dressed in black do not have the ability to read minds, their strength is stronger than the nine stars of the alliance, and there are controllers with mind-reading abilities in the alliance, and it is not impossible to exist in those alien lifeforms.

Stringing all of this together, it is not difficult to conclude that the other party is very close to the alliance, and it is likely that the opponent's base camp is very close to the alliance, and the other party is likely to know where the alliance is now.

The air fell into freezing point in an instant. No one dared to speak, and at this moment, everyone's minds fell into confusion. Jiuxing has great strength, but Jiuxing is also human and can also feel fear. I'm afraid there are few people in this world who can smile and say that it doesn't matter when they know that a crisis is coming.

But the Nine Stars are the Nine Stars after all, and they are burdened with the fate of billions of lives of three races, and at this moment, they must decide whether to escape once more or prepare for the coming war.

"It's impossible to escape again." Xiao Lao said casually, it was this sentence that finished the only little fantasy left in everyone's minds

It's all shattered.

If you think about it carefully, it is true, the strength of the other party is so strong, if you have really determined your own position, it is indeed difficult to escape again. Moreover, with such a large population in the Union, it is not realistic to want to move to a distant place in a short period of time.

The crowd fell silent again, no one spoke, they were all waiting, waiting for the others to give an answer, an answer that could save the status quo of the Alliance.

"The main task now is to strengthen our overall combat capability." Ning Qingyu thought for a long time and said, "I think that even if the other party's strength is very strong, it can't be all, if all of us in the Nine Stars are united, it may not be their opponent, the most important thing at the moment is to improve our overall combat effectiveness." ”

"Although everyone among the controllers knows that the gap in strength is not something that can be made up by quantity, but this is only limited to the controller, what if you count the root star martial arts in the hands of the controller?"

Ning Qingyu's words can be described as a word to wake up the people in their dreams, and everyone present felt that their eyes lit up, yes, the alliance has been saying that the root Xingwu has no effect on the high-level controllers, but in fact this is not the case, to be precise, the quality of the root Xingwu has no effect on the high-level controllers. If it is a very powerful Root Star Martial Force, the help to the controller is still very obvious.

For example, the Harvins sniper rifle and the Star Scar Sword in Chen Mojian's hand, even if they reach the star level, those two weapons can still be used and produce a lot of help.

"What do you mean......" Elder Eun asked.

Veteran Zhuang took over the topic and said: "Now is the critical moment for the survival of the alliance, if our strength cannot be improved, it will be a disaster for all lives, now we should let go of those trivial matters of intrigue and real condensation." ”

As he spoke, Elder Zhuang looked at Valtier and Morchin, "I hope that the two of you can do everything you can to provide minerals and technology to create as many quality and quantity Root Star Weapons as possible in a short period of time, preferably a large number of thermal weapons." ”

Valtier and Morchin looked at each other, and Valtier said, "Yes, but why is it a thermal weapon, and it can't be used if it's too much to make." ”

Zhuang Lao shook his head and said: "Indeed, thermal weapons are of little use to high-level controllers, and low-level controllers cannot generate enough threats when they are used, the reason why I propose this is because of my other idea, this idea has been put into practice, and I believe it won't take long to see the results." ”

"What is it?" Morchin asked.

"Publish the method of condensation, and let everyone start to condense the star source, so that even if we don't have the ability to 'reason', we also have the power to use the root star martial arts, and our combat power can be increased thousands of times in a short period of time."

As soon as Zhuang Lao's words came out, everyone instantly fell into a stupor, because this plan was too crazy, people's hearts were separated from their stomachs, and no one knew if they would flee for their lives like the recent frequent riots after letting the masses have the star source. But if it really succeeds, then the alliance's combat power will indeed increase countless times.

This is undoubtedly a bet on whether a sense of mission prevails, or selfishness and cowardice prevail, human nature will always be difficult to fathom.
