#2054 - The war is about to begin...
After much deliberation, the group decided to task Lant with this matter.
They couldn't reach any conclusions themselves, and Lant, already situated in the Little Azure World, would be in a position to subtly probe what Lan Wenhao and the others desired.
Thus, the heavy responsibility fell on Lant's shoulders once more.
This stunned Lant, who had just breathed a sigh of relief.
"Damn it, why is this kind of thing always left to me..."
He wanted to say, 'Don't shear the same sheep too much!'
He had already killed countless brain cells in the past three days.
How could he be given a brand new task before he even had a chance to rest?
After a small grumble in his heart, Lant fell into thought...
This matter was equally important.
All transactions must be equivalent.
This also applied to the Little Azure World's support for Area 512.
If they pretended not to know when the other party didn't mention compensation, the consequences would definitely not be pleasant.
Playing dumb is not applicable in many situations, especially in such serious moments.
After continuous thought, Lant couldn't come up with any good ideas.
"The one who tied the bell must untie it. I'll go find Azure Emperor."
Instead of guessing like a headless fly, he might as well actively ask for the answer.
When Lan Wenhao met Lant, the two exchanged pleasantries.
Lant began to subtly probe, "Azure Emperor, the Little Azure World has helped us so much this time, we truly don't know how to repay you."
Lan Wenhao said, "There's no need to be so polite between us."
He said this from the bottom of his heart, feeling that there was no need to be so polite.
After all, it wouldn't be long before Area 512 completely belonged to the Little Azure World.
Helping Lant and the others was also helping himself.
However, Lant heard another meaning in these words.
He immediately said, "I wonder what the Little Azure World needs us to repay you with."
Silence fell over the scene...
After a long while, Lan Wenhao said meaningfully, "No repayment is needed, or rather, Area 512 is the best repayment."
After saying this, Lant immediately understood what he meant.
The conversation had already reached this point, so there was no need to ask anything further.
The other party wanted their Area 512.
What lay before them now seemed like two choices, but in reality, it was one choice.
If they refused, then the previously mentioned support would naturally be called off.
Without the support of the Little Azure World, they would definitely not be able to withstand such a fierce attack from the Chaos Gods.
In the end, the only path left for them would be destruction.
So they could only agree, who told them that their lives were in the hands of the other party.
Trying to bargain would be the most foolish thing to do.
Lan Wenhao looked at Lant with a smile that wasn't quite a smile and said, "Don't take this to heart, I was just saying it casually."
Lant: "......"
He wanted to say, 'It's already been laid out on the table, and you're still saying it casually.'
Only a fool would believe these words.
If he really took Lan Wenhao's words as casual, things would become very serious.
Lant said, "Azure Emperor, I will report this matter."
After saying this, Lant turned and left.
Watching the other party leave, Lan Wenhao said, "This is someone who knows the current affairs."
He originally hadn't planned to tell Lant about this matter.
Who knew that the other party would come to ask, so he had to express his true thoughts.
There was no need for such concealment.
As time passed, his intentions would eventually be revealed.
Lant returned to his residence and relayed this matter to Gray and the others.
After hearing this, complex expressions appeared on the faces of Gray and the others.
Originally, joining the Little Azure World was their last and most helpless option.
They didn't expect that the other party's purpose was exactly this.
Since they had already made sufficient psychological preparations, Gray and the others didn't feel too much of a letdown in the face of this condition.
It was still the same saying, if they wanted to survive, they had to have support.
Without support, surviving would ultimately only be wishful thinking.
The other party had already firmly grasped them.
Gray sighed and said, "What do you think about this matter?"
Many of his subordinates said:
"This kind of thing is actually within our expectations. The other party will definitely want compensation for supporting us. How could it be free?"
"We only have one choice now, and that is to agree to this matter. Otherwise, we will not have any resistance in the face of the Chaos Gods' attack."
"In fact, joining the Little Azure World is not a bad thing in my opinion. At least we don't have to worry about our lives being threatened in the future."
"Especially since the Little Azure World also has a Qin Emperor whose strength is unfathomable. I think the future is limitless working under this Qin Emperor."
This is how living beings are. Once they have decided on something,
Perhaps to convince themselves, they will always think of the good aspects.
Gray said, "Since everyone agrees with this matter, then send a message to Lant."
After receiving the message, a hint of joy appeared on Lant's face.
For him, having witnessed the power of the Little Azure World, he naturally didn't have much resistance to this kind of thing.
On the contrary, he was worried about becoming a sandwich cookie.
If he was sandwiched between Gray and Lan Wenhao, he would be the one who suffered the most.
Now that this matter has been perfectly resolved, then everything is not a problem.
After overusing his brain for a few days, Lant only felt a burst of fatigue after suddenly relaxing.
After a good night's sleep, he found Lan Wenhao and told him about this matter:
"Azure Emperor, after our discussion, we have decided to join the Little Azure World."
He didn't say that he was forced to, but instead expressed his willingness to take the initiative in his tone.
Saying it this way mainly makes people feel comfortable and also avoids causing trouble for himself.
Lan Wenhao smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to be like this."
......
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, five months had passed.
Area 512 was only one day away from the arrival of the Chaos Gods army.
The Heavenly Court's First Army had already been stationed in Area 512, but the number was not too large.
Doing so, the biggest purpose is to make the current situation fall into a stalemate.
After all, Qin Yi is still not out of seclusion, and fighting too fiercely will definitely cause the top combat power to end.
There is still a big difference between the two sides in terms of top combat power.
Gray and others were quite puzzled, and couldn't understand what this situation was trying to do.
They had deeply understood the power of the Little Azure World during this period of time.
This little bit of force is just a drop in the bucket for them...
Sending so little force to help them is really a bit... awkward.
Gray looked at his subordinates and said, "Can you guess what that General Liang is thinking in the current situation?"
