Chapter 1328: Battle plan
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Atlanteans possessed sacrificial spirits, especially in times like this. This was similar to Aslan. The royal family held great responsibility, but compared to the Aslan Empire, they were much more true to their feelings.
“According to the analysis of the report, he values his relationships, and it would tie him to Atlantis.”
The governors agreed with this. The Atlanteans were extremely smart, and they were even more observant than the elders of Tita. The reason they had chosen Aslan as an ally was that they had found out the same thing through observations. If Princess Xin Yue were to become his wife, it would allow them to ride on Atlantis’ coattails, and the Atlanteans would not care about social class.
Hao Lin sighed. “This idea needs to be put aside for now. Not to mention the fact that Wang Zheng and Aina’s relationship is stable, we have to consider Sister’s feelings. Compared to this idea, it would be better to provide Wang Zheng with help. We must not be afraid to lose him. I believe that in times of need, Wang Zheng would not leave us alone.”
“Your Highness, your words make sense, but the risk is too much, and we can’t take that risk. I believe that only a close relationship would make Wang Zheng help us in such a huge crisis.”
Most of the elders and governors supported Hao Lin, with some opposing it as they considered Princess Xin Yue’s attitude towards the matter. In addition they were worried about Wang Zheng… if he had the ability. If he did not, it would be a great loss for them, and the risk would be greater than working with Aslan.
The discussion hall began debating. In the bigger picture, a joint marriage would be suitable. Atlantis would have a justifiable reason to obtain the Oracle.
Moreover, in terms of attractiveness, Atlantis’ Princess’ appearance, status, and temperament would be attractive to any man. It could be said that she was the only person comparable to Aina in beauty, not to mention the fact that Atlantis’ attitude was much better than Aslan’s. Seeing what Kashawen had done, Atlantis would never do those things. In contrast, they would give Wang Zheng their full support, and they would make Wang Zheng Atlantis’ representative in the Milky Way Alliance, a position higher than others. From the start till now, they believed that Wang Zheng cared about ambition, status, and power.
As for Aina… even if there was a goalkeeper, could they not score?
“Why did no one ask for my opinion?” Princess Xin Yue suddenly asked.
Everyone was stunned. The Princess would definitely follow the majority – this was a common way of thinking for the Atlanteans, and at most it was a matter of her being willing or slightly unwilling.
Princess Xin Yue gently smiled. “I feel that Wang Zheng is decent, and worth a try.”
The reason was that the people in charge of observing Wang Zheng were Hao Lin and Princess Xin Yue. While he was a human, Princess Xin Yue liked his courage for challenging old rules and wanted to grow closer to him.
Back to the place which held Xie Yuxin and the rest, they looked at each other and smiled. Wang Zheng, Xie Yuxin, Mars, Olivios, and Jondi Lilick were of the same kind. Regardless of the environment around them, they would remain calm and have their own judgment. They would not be lost like Mengha and the rest, or even lose control of their emotions. They definitely would not. When Wang Zheng arrived, the backbone of the team was present, so they no longer had any fear. They felt excited instead. Fighting against the mysterious Saint alongside Wang Zheng would be challenging and interesting.
“Let me introduce to everyone to Xie Yuxin, my good friend from high school, and someone I have been jealous of all along. If he was just handsome, that would be all, but he is talented as well,” Wang Zheng said.
The introduction shocked Jondi Lilick and the rest. If the words came from someone else, that would be all, but they knew how high Wang Zheng’s standards were.
“Wang Zheng, don’t bluff like this in front of our own people.” Xie Yuxin smiled bitterly. This guy had not changed even after so many years. “We are familiar with the few of you, you’re all famous people. I am Xie Yuxin, I specialize in spiritual control and have certain prediction abilities. These are Yuan Jing, Mengha, Kang Siqi, Huo Dong all from the Galaxy Military College, Meng Tian’s team mates.”
“I am Mengha, Earth-rank warrior. I don’t know what you think, but I am definitely going to rescue Meng Tian first!” Mengha said, and glared at Wang Zheng.
Yuan Jing pulled Mengha. He knew that Mengha was angry, and not full of himself, as opposite him were the top Earth-rank warriors.
“I am Yuan Jing, Meng Tian’s mech team team leader. Kang Siqi and Huo Dong specialize in techniques. Wang Zheng, Meng Tian said that you would take us away from here. What are your plans?” Yuan Jing was relatively calm. They would fight alongside each other in the future, so there should not be any gaps between them. Moreover, the conditions outside were not great as well.
“Wang Zheng, if you were low key, we could have struck the Saint laboratory, but there are people everywhere and we can’t even leave,” Mengha said.
“You know where it is?” Wang Zheng asked.
Mengha had a proud expression, and Kang Siqi nodded. “The two of us got into their system. While we were unable to destroy it, we managed to find out the location. I suggest that we attack the laboratory and rescue Meng Tian.”
As for the others, they did not care. They did not have the ability, and it was the Milky Way Alliance’s matters.
Wang Zheng looked at Xie Yuxin. Yuxin gently smiled, and before Wang Zheng said anything, Mars frowned slightly. “The idea is good, but it is too naive.”
“What do you mean!?” Mengha immediately stood up.
Olivios looked at Mengha coldly. “What is dangerous is not the situation, but useless teammates. The reason Wang Zheng stood out is to alert others. If the Saint keeps to the rules, gathering teammates is good. At the same time, the Saint is full of internal conflicts. While we may be outsiders, if we make good use of the situation, we will be able to find an opportunity to attack the laboratory. But it will not succeed unless we are able to win against Heaven-rank experts. To be more accurate, at least two Heaven-rank experts.”
People from Arbiter did not like to beat around the bush – they liked to be direct. The best part about Arbiter was that there were no such “reckless” teammates like Mengha. If they existed, they would have been schooled a long time ago.
Olivios and Mengha had begun to butt heads, making the atmosphere tense.
Wang Zheng smiled. “Lilick, how did you come here? And what did you find out?”
Wang Zheng had come the latest, and he needed to understand the situation before formulating a battle plan. “Don’t talk about it. I am the most useless here. According to my observations, the Great Elder and the Thirteenth Elder are trustworthy. At least with no clear way out, we should try it. Well, of course, we could keep Mengha’s method as a back up. The only problem is, how do we leave?”
Mengha’s plan was based on them finding the road back. If not, they would face a pursuit by Heaven-ranks, or even the whole Oracle Star. Either way, both were undesirable.
