However, only the wise can recognize the signs of the tis.
The Rage Spirit Wizard laughed heartily and patted Lin Suo’s shoulder.
"Indeed, I haven’t misjudged you. Lead the way and show what belongs to ."
"Chì chù!"
Iron Hoof Mountain City, City Lord Mansion.
It has been temporarily converted into a command center, with the Rage Spirit Wizard’s psychic fleet actually the last to arrive.
The Pioneer Wizards from the Southern Star Domain, having been contacted by Lin Suo in advance, had already arrived. Many independent operators purchased Synthetic Beast troops and starships with raw materials from Lin Suo’s side to prepare for the invasion by the chanical God Sect.
Such transactions only lasted for several months.
But with Lin Suo establishing even the most rudintary Star Gate System, the transportation efficiency skyrocketed, and virtually all Pioneer Wizards in the Southern Star Domain had been bought over by him.
The people’s allegiance was with him!
As for selling Synthetic Beasts, they were also Lin Suo’s excellent creations, such as winged Chiras, Multi-headed Snake warriors, mantis shellworkers, Black Winged Demons... and so on.
The Synthetic Beasts for sale had their reproductive functions genetically castrated and were asexual synthetic organisms. There was no risk in transferring control to them, as with the Synthetic Talent on Lin Suo’s side, there’s never a risk of backlash.
These fine Synthetic Beasts had all been personally tested by Lin Suo and were capable of handling various situations.
The entire Pioneer Alliance of the Southern Star Domain numbered 1053 Wizards, mostly Upper Grade Wizards with a very small number of Legendaries. These Legendaries venturing out to pioneer territories were weak among their peers and lacked any significant background or connections.
Therefore, Lin Suo easily ford a new interest group by binding them together with benefits.
So.
When the brash Rage Spirit Wizard took the main seat in the circular eting room, everyone looked at him with cryptic gazes.
Seeing this, Lin Suo conveyed a look and was the first to speak.
"This is the Commander dispatched by the Truth Council and the person in charge of the Southern Defense Line for this occasion. Everyone just listen to the Rage Spirit Wizard’s arrangents."
With that said, the Pioneer Alliance temporarily cald down, but they understood what was going on. After all, who asked the War Domain group to establish the defense line at Ursa Major...
They were perhaps the most disappointed in the Truth Council.
Not a shred of trust was left.
The Rage Spirit Wizard, talking up a storm, began to deploy his plan upon seeing the projected map of the Southern Star Domain in the center of the eting room.
"Ladies and gentlen, no need for small talk. The invasion by the chanical God Sect is not a big deal. With us, the psychic Wizards here, we have a great advantage against chanical entities."
"The entire Southern Star Domain faces the Jigerde Star System at the foremost front, followed by a scattering of minor star systems in a wing-like spread."
"Grunloba Small Star System, Carola Small Star System, the Dead Star Gravity Belt... Valentine Mini Star System, and so on."
"This area requires special patrols. My Deputy Officer, the Legendary Middle Grade Wizard Tiffins, will be in charge. You all just need to choose half of your personnel to discuss the details with her..."
The Rage Spirit Wizard spoke at length, and Lin Suo showed no intention to speak, thus the eting went very smoothly for the Rage Spirit, leaving him in high spirits.
Deep into the night.
The eting room, which should’ve been empty, was once again full of people, with every seat occupied without exception.
Lin Suo sat at the head of the table, succinct in his words.
"The Rage Spirit Wizard’s arrangents today were decent, but there are many things he does not know. First, I will personally lead the Rhein family’s main fleet to intercept the Curse Spirit Clan’s fleet."
"The chanical God Sect’s forces are left for you to deal with."
"We can only trust half of his deploynt; after being suppressed by the Curse Spirit Clan for so long, the chanical God Sect must have acquired so devices resistant to psychic attacks."
"Whether to trust him or not, you all understand. All we need to do is to hold back the invasion of the chanical God Sect. Once I have dealt with the Curse Spirit Clan issue, we will seek a counterattack."
Lin Suo’s ssage was crystal clear.
Everyone understood—they were to make a token effort, just enough to allow the psychic Wizard troops to take the lead.
Originally, Lin Suo was pondering whether to let his clone join the battle, but now with the Contract as proof, it would be perfectly normal for him, the front-line Commander, to disappear from here.
Open combat wasn’t his style; subterfuge suited him just fine.
It was that simple and straightforward.
Just after Lin Suo finished speaking, soone questioned.
"If that Wrathful Wizard also doesn’t put in the effort, what do we do?"
"What else can we do, but give up?"
Lin Suo spread his hands, admitting there was nothing he could do about this issue.
Though he had developed for what seed a long ti and at a high speed,
he still couldn’t stand shoulder to shoulder with the dominant powers. Take the chanical God Sect for example, nearly all of the chanical Giant Beasts that ford one of their foundations were stripped of their bodies, losing a third of their strength at once.
Moreover, in the subsequent major battles, they suffered defeat after defeat.
The losses were incalculable. Even so, the last ti they faced directly in the Giant Dragon Small Star System, the chanical forces they encountered numbered an astronomical figure.
The thousands of starships forming the "Lily Fleet" assigned to Thea would likely not have been able to make it back without his further arrangents.
Coupled with the overwhelming number of chanical Legends, the enemy was capable of dispatching hundreds of millions of chanical Warships at once, launching invasive wars on several fronts simultaneously.
This was purely a gap in brute strength, and there was no helping it.
So he suggested that if it was not possible, they should just give up.
"But..."
Seeing the other party wanting to speak again, Lin Suo imdiately raised his hand to press down, signaling the other party to stop.
He spoke up.
"I know your intention is to protect your own interests, but it’s no use going head to head with a stone."
"The chanical God Sect’s sea of machine tactics can only be solved by sheer might. This falls on the War Axe Fleet of Ursa Major. We can’t do it, nor can the Wrathful Wizard."
As Lin Suo spoke, he pulled up the holographic map.
"So, you have to row with purpose. This star sea route I’ve mapped out is the path we’ll let the chanical God Sect flood through all the way to Ursa Major."
"The responsibility and pressure will fall on the Wrathful Wizard."
"As for the imdiate benefits you’re concerned with, I need to say only one thing for you to understand."
On this front, Lin Suo didn’t engage in beating around the bush.
"The chanical God Sect’s invasion is an opportunity. The Pioneer Alliance we’ve established in the shadows is composed almost entirely of civilian wizards and declining nobility, with no background, no resources, relying solely on our own efforts."
"With this chance, we can form new group alliances, which is a gain in itself. Looking to the future, gentlen, you will certainly gain more than what you currently have."
Lin Suo had a knack for painting a rosy picture, but he was even better at providing tangible benefits.
"The Curse Spirit Clan Fleet is a problem, so I will take care of it personally. Once they are dealt with, we will organize troops to strike at the interior of the chanical God Sect from this route. Then, all resource stars are up for grabs—whover occupies them first, gets them, how does that sound?"
The call to counterattack sounds splendid but seems sowhat unrealistic. For instance, the sneak attack route planned by Lin Suo is quite indirect, and while it appears close on the map, in the universe, it spans countless light-years, a distance that could not be traversed in re decades.
Soone raised this doubt.
Lin Suo also answered very seriously. After developing his trade for so long, he had already established his mature trade routes. With the Star Gates, this ti would only be shortened.
But Lin Suo wouldn’t put it so bluntly.
He instead directly released a large quantity of Synthetic Beast goods at a steep discount for the Pioneer Alliance to arm themselves one last ti, according to the ti budget.
At most within a week, the star systems previously indicated would encounter the forward path of the chanical God Sect.
At that ti, how things would develop would have to be played by ear. Lin Suo could only provide a general direction; the actual execution depended on their own fortune.
The night eting ended quickly.
The next day, before dawn, many Pioneer Wizards set out with newly purchased Synthetic Beast troops to establish defenses on nearby miniature star systems.
This also caused the Mind Wizard’s forces to disperse!
After Lin Suo showed up, he "honestly" completed the handover, offering up his "all" and leaving Sal Black Claw on Iron Hoof Star to command the leftover Beastman Army for him.
Once the Contract’s duties were fully fulfilled, whether they obeyed commands was the Beastn’s affair, not his.
Soon after, Lin Suo vanished from the Jigerde Star System with his group of friends and family.
