Chapter 315: Targeted Measures
In the building of the Federal Parliament,
In the conference room,
Lu Qingxian and the titans of the parliament and the Military found themselves feeling a bit troubled.
They did not expect that at this critical moment, the once peaceful Yi Chen would suddenly start taking action and make many significant decisions.
“First, there was the appearance of a large defensive formation covering the entire Great Flame Kingdom. Then, he ordered the four armies to pause their expansion and shift to searching for the whereabouts of humanity, fully gathering the humanity from the exile planet.”
“Next, he summoned all the fake heavy criminals and the leader of the fierce beast army, the swamp crocodile.”
“According to the think tank’s analysis, all these actions indicate that Yi Chen is trying to guard against the attack from our human federation and prepare to retreat to the entire Great Flame Kingdom.”
“It’s highly likely that this large defensive formation possesses extremely powerful defensive capabilities, making it difficult for our large battleships to breach it in a short time.”
“The question is, no matter how strong this large defensive formation is, how long can it withstand our attacks?”
One of the Military titans spoke up, “What Yi Chen is doing will only delay us for a few hours at most, which is meaningless.”
“Not necessarily meaningless.”
Lu Qingxian shook his head, “The think tank analyzed that Yi Chen’s actions might be an attempt to buy time until the Tree-Dwelling Tribe envoy arrives, seeking to leverage the envoy’s pressure on us.”
“This large defensive formation not only has remarkable defensive power but can also block scans from large scanners.”
“Yi Chen will most likely set up numerous small defensive formations within the Great Flame Kingdom itself.”
“In this way, even if we plan to use force to pressure him into signing a contract, we would need to locate and destroy each defensive formation in order to find out where Yi Chen is.”
“Moreover, according to the think tank’s speculation, if Yi Chen can place this defensive formation around his flying treasure, it would effectively put his flying treasure in a state of invisibility against our large battleship’s scanners.”
As these words were spoken, all the leaders’ expressions changed.
If this were true, it would be a massive problem.
The large battleship’s scanners would not be able to locate the flying treasure.
Additionally, with Yi Chen’s flying treasure having the ability to resize, it could hide anywhere, making it nearly impossible for the human federation to find him.
Only powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe could use their strong Perception Ability to locate the flying treasure.
“It’s no wonder Yi Chen suddenly set up a large defensive formation; he intends to use it as cover so that his flying treasure can also avoid scanner detection.”
“Plus, with that immensely spacious treasure that can even accommodate living beings inside, he could potentially store the citizens of the Great Flame Kingdom within it.”
“As a result, as long as the large defensive formation can buy one or two hours of time, we won’t be able to use the citizens of the Great Flame Kingdom to threaten him.”
Marshal Iron Blood’s expression turned grim: “This means he has suddenly summoned all the fake heavy criminals, likely preparing to take action against them.”
Lu Qingxian nodded, “Many of the fake heavy criminals hold high positions, especially among the High-ranking Leaders at the Political Council; almost all of them are fake heavy criminals. Even among the four armies, aside from the four leaders, the middle and upper ranks are all fake heavy criminals.”
“According to the think tank’s reasoning, although these fake heavy criminals joined the Great Flame Kingdom with different purposes, they have played a significant role in the kingdom’s current development.”
“Moreover, if they were killed or expelled, it would be a huge disaster for the Political Council and the four armies, severely impacting future development.”
“Given Yi Chen’s character, the likelihood of him killing them is actually low. It’s more probable that he will make them choose whether to stay in the Great Flame Kingdom and pledge absolute loyalty to him from now on, or to leave.”
The others nodded in agreement, clearly endorsing the think tank’s analysis.
“Those who remain, regardless of which faction they came from, will probably not dare to contact the human federation again and will completely pledge their loyalty to Yi Chen.”
A parliament titan sighed.
Everyone fell silent.
Given Yi Chen’s talent and his personal charm, it was clear that many fake heavy criminals would choose to pledge their loyalty.
On the other hand, those who, for various reasons, had given up fully integrating into the Great Flame Kingdom would unlikely be foolish enough to pass up this only chance to leave alive and would prefer to remain as undercover agents.
Over the years, these fake heavy criminals had already been won over psychologically by Yi Chen’s intellect and wisdom, and they would not dare to take such a risk anymore.
Thus, in order to obtain the skills Yi Chen had recently announced, they would need to find a way to send someone into the Great Flame Kingdom again.
“Actually, we should feel fortunate that we prepared in advance and set up a large Defense System around the exile planet,” Lu Qingxian remarked. “According to the think tank, Yi Chen might already know about the existence of the large Defense Systems.”
“Although his flying treasure remains under the monitoring of the scanner, he could create another flying treasure and place the defensive formation around this second flying treasure.”
“With that, he could silently avoid detection by the large battleship’s scanners and leave the exile planet in search of an escape route.”
“However, because the exile planet is restricted by the large Defense System, he cannot leave and can only quietly return.”
“Of course, this is just speculation; only Yi Chen knows the truth.”
The leaders nodded in agreement.
In their hearts, they silently felt relieved for having immediately decided to set up the large Defense System after witnessing Yi Chen endure nine bolts of divine lightning and break through to a new major realm.
Otherwise, if Yi Chen had managed to leave the exile planet quietly, even if he couldn’t escape the blockade of the cosmic storm zone, just hiding on another planet would be enough for the human federation to completely lose track of him.
After all, the distance from the exile planet to the cosmic storm zone reaches 0.1 light-years.
If the defensive formations could block scanner detection, even if the human federation dispatched a fleet to search, it would be completely in vain.
None of them had considered that Yi Chen had already left the exile planet and even the cosmic storm zone and the galaxy.
Yi Chen was still on the exile planet, making them all mistakenly believe he hadn’t left at all.
Because if he truly left, he wouldn’t be able to return to the exile planet.
He would be blocked by the energy shield of the large Defense System.
Theoretically, if Yi Chen successfully left, he could not return to the exile planet.
Lu Qingxian cleared his throat and continued, “The series of actions Yi Chen suddenly took will at most prevent us from discovering his whereabouts.”
“It does not affect our plans at all. We only need to ensure that once the third envoy is confirmed, we sign a contract that favors us at all costs, ensuring that the third Tree-Dwelling Tribe envoy leans toward us, forcing Yi Chen to sign a contract with us.”
“However, the foreign affairs department of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe has not yet formally determined the candidate for the third envoy. We cannot just wait; we must take some proactive measures.”
The leaders nodded in agreement.
As long as they could sign a contract with the third envoy of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, coupled with the large Defense System’s blockade of the exile planet, the Federal Parliament and the Military could remain in a stable position, ready for any changes.
However, the series of changes by Yi Chen required them to take countermeasures to prevent any surprises before the arrival of the third envoy.
Moreover, if they could sign a contract with Yi Chen in advance, it would save a large amount of resources and treasures to bribe the third envoy.
After deliberating, the Federal Parliament and the Military officially decided to send people to find ways to infiltrate the exile planet and blend into the Great Flame Kingdom.
They also restarted the fifth round of negotiations, hoping for some gains.
Even if no progress was made, it would at least buy them some time.
