Chapter 625: 622, The senior monks decided to act separately_1
After freezing the Skru people, Su Yu no longer needed to bother about the rest.
He pulled out his phone, sending the base coordinates to Xue Wenli, and soon the united government’s military force was expected to take over.
At the same time, he also searched on his phone for the coordinates of the nearest “Kun101” mini spring eye.
Once he found it, he cast the [Teleportation spell], and with a flash of silver light, Su Yu left his original location, being transported to the vicinity of “Kun101” mini spring eye, where he started taking over the next Skru base.
…
Meanwhile, team members like Alyssa and Tina were smoothly conducting their work to occupy the spring eyes in the northwest direction.
They were extremely cautious at first, constantly on alert for a possible attack from Sidim, the god-level Skru. Not until the space cracks disappeared did they breathe a sigh of relief.
Their occupation work was as easy as Su Yu’s, hardly requiring combat. When they reached the area, local Sru people naturally had to surrender. It even took less effort than capturing dozens of pigs.
The Skru people stationed in the base didn’t think of resisting at all. Faced with the configuration of one seventh-order and 5-6 sixth order, even if they had thoughts of defiance, they would be crushed within minutes. It was completely hopeless.
But when all three teams had taken over the third mini spring eye, the bored sixth-order practitioners on Blue Star gradually felt that this was not a good method.
A leading practitioner named “Chen She” pondered for a while, then said in the chat group they had established: “Fellow practitioners, I feel that the current way of attacking the spring eyes isn’t very good.”
All the leading practitioners had a lot of spare time, and as soon as Chen She spoke in the group, others immediately questioned: “Chen, why isn’t it a good method?”
Prime Minister Cao Chengxiang also replied amongst his busy schedule with a “????”.
Chen She explained: “Don’t you all feel that according to our current way of occupying spring eyes, we sixth-order practitioners are utterly being burdens?
If we remove the 17 of us from sixth-order, without Alyssa, Tina, and Morning Star needing to deliberately look after us, wouldn’t their speed in occupying the sprig eyes probably become faster!”
Seeing the message from Chen She, a series of “…” appeared in the group.
What Chen She said was right. On thoughtful consideration, they were indeed dragging the three of Alyssa down. Their existence was not only unhelpful to the speed of occupation but also required the three of Alyssa to exert extra effort to protect them.
Their existence was entirely a side effect.
Seeing that everyone in the group was aware of this, Chen She suggested:
“In my opinion, we should go our separate ways!”
While Skru’s two god-leveled beings have not yet returned to the Skru Star, we can take this opportunity to spread out and individually occupy a spring eye. This would expedite the process.”
If it were before, Chen She’s idea would not work.
In the past, when the military forces of the various minor bases of Skru had not yet withdrawn, a fifth-order commander could cooperate with the internal defenses of the base to completely defeat the offenses of a sixth-order practitioner.
Even the original Su Yu had to sneak into the minor bases and cause damage stealthily to successfully conquer the entire mini spring eye.
But now, it was completely different.
Now, the military forces of all the small bases had withdrawn substantially. The main and secondary commanders had already left, and a sixth-order practitioner could easily occupy a base. In fact, some bases surrendered as soon as they were approached.
Thus, Chen She suggested such a proposal.
Upon hearing his suggestion, big practitioners in the group soon commented: “Of course, we can work this way, but the most important aspect for us is the safety concern. Once Sidim comes, our individual strengths will not be able to resist, and we could be easily killed.”
Other big practitioners also expressed their agreement.
If it weren’t for safety considerations, who wouldn’t want to fully leverage their own capabilities?
In response to these worries, Chen She patiently responded in the group: “Hear me out.
If we split up, firstly, the probability of each one of us encountering Sidim is one in seventeen, which is not particularly high.
Secondly, once we reach the spring eyes, we can be very cautious, for example, we shout to the Skru people inside the spring eye to surrender from outside the range of the spring eye. If they don’t surrender, we cast long-range spells into it, while preparing to run at the first sign of trouble.
With prevention, security can be guaranteed.
Moreover, if we truly want safety, why don’t we retreat to Yunlu Mountain? Even retreat would be better than being a burden, right?”
Chen She’s words lead the leading practitioners to deep contemplation.
What Chen She said was right. At present, staying here as a burden was just a side effect. They either had to be cowards and return to Yunlu Mountain, or gamble and try to occupy the mini spring eyes.
Not long after Chen She spoke, a leading practitioner in the group began to support him:
“I agree with Chen’s thoughts. When you are out for war, there is no absolute safety. If you truly desire safety, it’s safer to continue staying in the deep forests, not involving yourself in the world outside.”
“Exactly, we take some risks and make more contributions, this gives us some justification to negotiate more energy distribution quotas with the united government in the future. If we stay here and continue to be a burden, how can any of us have the audacity to ask for more energy?”
“I also agree, we should each go our different ways.”
“I also support this.”
Many leading practitioners expressed their support in the group, however, some were hesitant due to safety considerations.
In the end, Prime Minister Cao Chengxiang spoke: “In that case, let’s take a vote to decide. One person, one vote, majority wins. What would you all prefer- maintain the status quo, or each on his own?”
Prime Minister Cao Chengxiang was proficient with this chat software application. Many of the application’s features were added under his investment and insistence.
Suddenly, a “Group Voting” interface popped up in the chat group, allowing the leading practitioners to vote, with a time limit of three minutes.
…
When the three minutes were up, the result was out.
Out of the 17 leading practitioners, 15 cast their votes (two were really bad at using phones and simply didn’t vote). Nine practitioners were willing to go on their own, three voted to keep the status quo and three abstained.
It seems that the majority of the big practitioners don’t want to be burdens and wish to work individually.
Once the results were out, Prime Minister Cao Chengxiang uttered a small sigh, then messaged in the group: “Since the result is already out, I won’t stop you.
However, remember: Be careful, more careful, and even more cautious! Any dangers should be reported in the group immediately!”
“Rest assured.”
“Life and death are destined.”
“Wait up, there are only 102 mini spring eyes in the KunLun Mountain range, aren’t there less sites for our 17 people including the 5 seventh-level practitioners to conquer?”
“No problem, we can expand the scale. There are more than 100 eyes in the southwestern direction of the Karakoram mountain range plus the lonely spring eyes on the Qing Zang Plateau, six hours is enough for us to take over.”
“That’s correct, let’s go!”
The leading practitioners were discussing among themselves, then dispersed and headed towards the different mini spring eyes.
The work to takeover spiritual spring eyes proceeded to the second phase.
