Chapter 2270: The "gift" before the decisive battle! (1/2)
Li Yao took a deep breath, took two steps forward, put his hands on the table, looked at Lei Chenghu through the cold metal desk, and said every word: ”I don't want to see the creatures in the center of Xinghai become charcoal, and I don't want to. In the face of a fragmented and on the verge of collapse of human civilization, it is even more intolerable that the flesh and blood puppets of the Covenant Alliance that do not have seven emotions and free will sweep the entire universe, so that my compatriots and children and grandchildren will have to deal with the Pangu tribe or any kind of universe gods and demons. Kneel down, kneel down three times and knock down nine times!
”His Royal Highness can prevent this from happening, so I will stand firmly on her side and do my best to support her.
”Assuming that Her Royal Highness can't stop all of this, and even bring great disaster to the center of the Star Sea, then, who can stop her, who can end all the chaos, I will stand by that side.
”In the final analysis, I am not loyal to Her Royal Highness the Queen or the empire, but loyal to human civilization itself!
”General Lei, are you satisfied with this answer?”
Lei Chenghu stared at Li Yao's faintly twinkling eyes for a while, nodded and said: ”I understand. It seems that you and Her Royal Highness are indeed different. This makes me very curious about what you are. Origins, how could Her Royal Highness cultivate you... an eclectic, ingenious, unique existence?”
Li Yao smiled, did not answer, but changed the subject: ”General Lei, how likely do you think your Royal Highness has'gambled on fire'? No matter how ambitious she is and desire supreme power, she will not May be the enemy of the entire Xinghai? Let’s not say whether she can swallow the four major electors’ families on her own, but that the main force of the Saint League is still watching in the dark. She will be stupid and crazy to such an extent, look. Isn't that point?
”If you work so hard to usurp the supreme power of the empire, but you are profited by the fishermen of the Holy League, wouldn't it be the biggest joke?”
”I don't know where the confidence of Her Royal Highness comes from. Maybe she has more unknown cards, similar to... you exist.”
Lei Chenghu said indifferently, ”I only know that for a gambler, the probability of'over betting' is 100%. There is no such word as'if you see good' in the gambler's dictionary, no matter if you win at the beginning, It doesn't matter if you lose, the gambler will only bet more and more chips again and again, until they lose all their flesh and blood and soul.
”I am such an inextricable gambler. Her Royal Highness bet more than me, and now I have tasted the sweetness of desperate betting. Will she really stop in time? I...very doubt.”
Li Yao and Lei Chenghu fell silent at the same time, showing thoughtful expressions one after another.
But the thoughts surging in their minds are obviously completely different.
Although the sea of stars is vast, human ambitions are even more exuberant. No matter how many stars and the world are destined to carry, it must overflow.
At this moment, the battlefield communicator on the metal desk spurred a signal from the flagship of the Deep Sea Fleet, the Long Yuan.
The image of the white-haired witch appeared silently between the two like a ghost.
”Li Shiwei, it's been hard work. Your performance is very good. It really exceeded my expectations. It seems that I have to reassess your role in the entire wave of innovation and your position in the new empire.”
Li Linghai, the queen of the empire, smiled at Li Yao meaningfully, then turned to Lei Chenghu, and said with a spring breeze, ”General Lei, I have fulfilled my promise. On behalf of the reformists, I have obtained the full support of the Li family, and I have lived up to the bloodshed of you and all the soldiers. Sacrifice?”
”His Royal Highness counts as an exhaustive plan, naturally everything is in your hands.”
Lei Chenghu said calmly, ”However, I'm even more curious about how you convinced the'silver fox' Li Jiande - if I didn't guess wrong, now the Li family is still in charge of Li Jiande, right?”
”It's very simple.”
Li Linghai wrote lightly, ”Li Jiande and I said that the entire reformist, as well as you and the Thunder Fleet, have all been used by me. The Li family can use the reformists, General Lei, and the Thunder Fleet as knives, and stab the Dongfang family to make the reforms. Both the Pai and the Dongfang family suffered both losses, and the Li family could take advantage of the situation to reap their profits.
”The old fox Li Jiande has been living and breathing for a hundred years without dying. What did he do, didn't he want to see the day when the Dongfang family fell? How could he not be tempted?
”Furthermore, we have such a big thorn inserted between the Li family's confidant, and if we don't say anything, we can give the Li family a blow. It shows that it is a situation where the jade and the stone are burned. How will he choose in the end? ?”
”Sounds very reasonable.”
Lei Chenghu said, ”Then how do we know that this is just rhetoric, not your true thoughts. You are deceiving Li Jiande on behalf of the reformers, not that the Li family is using the reformers?”
