Sheyan's words mercilessly poked at Curry and Azsa's sore spot. Their facial muscles twitched at the same time, but they could not utter a single word.
Because what Sheyan said was the truth. Slapping them in the face with the truth was always humiliating and irrefutable.
The rest of the people were also quite shocked. In such a harsh environment, Sheyan dared to stand up and slap the faces of the two MTs. This proved that he was not trying to bargain with them, but had the intention of breaking up with them from the very beginning! Then, some quick-witted people immediately thought of an important matter.
What was he relying on?
After Sheyan finished his poisonous tongue, he continued to stand in the same spot as if he had not had enough of it. He spread his hands slightly. At this moment, he had a kind of intimidating temperament. He said indifferently.
"It seems that the two of you have no objection to what I just said. Since we're in a fair partnership, why should I suffer such a loss? "
Ronnie stood up at once. He hid his hand behind his back, holding his dagger in a reverse grip. His eyes shone with a sinister and hateful light. Hedi Curry slowly stood up. His face was ashen, and his fists were slowly clenched. Azsa continued to sit by the bonfire, expressionless. However, Vasily, Azsa's supporter, seemed a little hesitant and took a few steps back.
Sheyan observed all of this clearly in his eyes. He laughed indifferently and said, "That's right. That's right.
"What? Didn't you want to talk? Now you want to fight because you can't talk? Ronnie, if it weren't for me leading the way in the afternoon, you would have become the feces of a wild beast to nourish the weeds on the plains. Do you think you would have the chance to come back and bite me now? Remember this, Paul Pokan, this is what happens when you save someone. "
Aldaris's figure was somewhat transparent. Those who were more familiar with him could tell at a glance that his real body had unknowingly run away, leaving only the illusion here. The corners of his mouth curled into a sneer, and he said disdainfully, "That's right.
With a sneer, he said, "Seaman, these idiots are just bluffing. Azsa's arms are still crippled, so she's nothing to worry about. Ronnie's ass was smashed by a mere Ferocious Wolverine. What's there to worry about? Curry is a clumsy bear, and he's still half-blind. Vassily is good at defence, but unfortunately, we're now in the core of his defence circle. As for the others, I don't think they'll risk perishing together with us. They'll definitely come after us. "
Aside from Aldaris's harsh words, he also revealed a strong sense of confidence. Based on the fact that he was able to escape from the pursuit of seven One-Horned Flying Ants alone, he indeed had the confidence to say such words.
Sheyan, on the other hand, looked at Pokan, who was with him earlier.
"Are we going to continue the battle here?"
Pokan immediately snorted.
"In your dreams! You want me to fight you from this distance? Do I look like a stupid person who would make such a decision? I think that since we're negotiating, we should act like we're negotiating. If we can't reach an agreement, we can sit down and talk again. In short, I didn't come to this planet to carry out a Blood Mission, but to get a promotion! I don't agree with fighting, so I'll stay neutral. "
Although Dardanian's disintegrator had been snatched away by Aldaris, he had been woken up by Sheyan's operation earlier. After a moment of silence, he said,
After a moment of silence, Sheyan said, "I'll stay neutral too."
Paul sized up Sheyan. This guy was the most shrewd of them all, which could be seen from the fact that he had made a fortune from modifying spacecrafts.
He reckoned that the biggest reason why Sheyan was so fearless and did not want to be an MT was that he had an extremely powerful summoned creature.
Paul's wrong judgment was because he appreciated Ramtas, the cultivated creature that Sheyan had summoned. He did not know that Sheyan's biggest trump card was actually his identity as an MT, so he thought that Sheyan was very skilled in alchemy, so it was not particularly strange for him to have such an assumption.
Moreover, he was more meticulous in his thinking. He had already considered what would happen if Sheyan and Aldaris were killed or driven away.
There was no doubt that if that happened, the two MTs and their supporters would immediately become the first group of supporters. Paul's previous modification had earned him a huge sum of money, so he would definitely be hated by others. Then, the current situation of Sheyan and Aldaris would very likely repeat itself on him!
Thus, Paul actually stood on the side of Party Ace and shrugged his shoulders.
He shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, but I think Seaman has a point."
There was no doubt that Sheyan did not expect Paul's unexpected support. The human heart was the most complicated thing in the world. No matter how scheming a person was, it was impossible to see through everyone's mind.
Hedi Curry and Azsa's expressions changed. Sheyan's words had hurt them greatly, but they also realized that the root cause of their fiasco was a lack of manpower! Sheyan's words had hurt them greatly, but at the same time, they realized that the root cause of their fiasco was a lack of manpower!
If the party were to split up here, they would lose three of their original ten members. If that happened, it would only be a matter of time before they repeated their mistakes! If they were to fight it out, it would be impossible for them to defeat the three of them. If they were to lose two more members, they would no longer be able to survive. They would have to get on the Wasp and return to the FOB as soon as possible.
At this moment, when both sides were in a dilemma, a contestant who had been silent all this time stepped forward and said, "Let's put it this way.
The MT is a high-risk profession that needs to stand on the frontline and bear the greatest risk, so the party should indeed pool resources to subsidize them. For example, the consumption of Lizard potions and the use of various potions should be shared among everyone. Then, the MT should have priority in choosing the spoils of war. Everything else should remain the same. Don't tell me that after being in the Realm for so long, you don't even know the principle of prioritising benefits? "
This contestant was called William. He usually kept a low profile, but he was actually quite a powerful sniper. In the last battle, he had killed at least six One-Horned Flying Ants. Among the people Sheyan had seen before, in terms of attack power alone, even MCDH was no match for him. He was probably on the same level as Azsa.
The speaker's speech was reasonable. Not only did he take into account the reputation of Hedi Curry and Azsa, but he also vetoed the terms that were obviously unfavorable to Sheyan and Sheyan. He had considered everything and gave both sides a way out of the situation.
In fact, neither Sheyan's party nor Hedi Curry's party was willing to part ways with them. It was just that Hedi Curry and Azsa were too used to being domineering, so they did not expect Sheyan's reaction to be so strong.
Therefore, when Hedi Curry heard William's proposal, he immediately agreed to it in order to avoid a split in the party.
"Okay, I think it's a good plan."
Sheyan smiled faintly and said, "That's right.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Sheyan's face. Sheyan smiled faintly and said:
Sheyan smiled and said, "All I want is justice. Since that's the case, I won't push my luck, so of course I have nothing to say."
Just like that, the team finally avoided the fate of having an analysis breakdown. However, the undercurrent was still surging below. This was the first time the strong Sheyan had met these two strong MTs, but it would definitely not be the last time they would have a conversation.
***
After the meeting, Paul naturally joined up with Sheyan's party. The aggressive display of strength displayed by the two MTs before was really threatening, so William, Dardanian and Pokan, the three neutral parties, naturally formed a team.
The night on the plains was not quiet. Although the One-Horned Flying Ants had divided the area into their sphere of influence, they could only intimidate powerful and large creatures. Weaker creatures like the Cockatrices that Sheyan's party encountered could do whatever they wanted.
Fortunately, the automatic defence system set up by Vassily was very powerful. The machine gun turrets would spray out dazzling flames and strafing sounds from time to time, repelling or killing some of the attacking creatures. This guy's defensive capabilities were indeed quite impressive. With him around, it was like having several turrets in their base in Warcraft. They would be able to sit back and relax without any worries.
After the three of them slept for an hour, Sheyan suddenly coughed and said,
"Actually, I think tonight is a great opportunity."
Aldaris asked doubtfully.
"What opportunity?"
Paul pondered for a moment.
"Are you talking about the mushroom rock?"
Sheyan sat up and slapped his thighs.
"That's right! Although the One-Horned Flying Ants are a type of mutated ant, their living habits shouldn't be very different from that of other ants. That is to say, in their colony, there might even be an ant queen that specializes in reproduction. More importantly, the losses of the ant colony must be much heavier than we thought. Otherwise, Curry and the other two wouldn't have survived …. Just think about the consequences of poking a hornet's nest. "
"And the reason why I said that tonight is the best chance is that after tonight, the news of the decline of the ant colony will most likely spread. Then, there might be some powerful creatures that will rush over to fight for territory. The mushroom rock has a special topography, so the interstellar officials probably want us to get off to a good start by finding high-purity Pi ores here.
