Chapter 680: Decisive Battle: 1.5 Million VS 80,000! (Part 2)

There was a chasm between humans and the alien races.

If this matter wasn’t announced beforehand, when the war truly began, the forces of the Human Alliance and the allied army from the North District Alien Race would surely be thrown into chaos.

Moreover, once the war began…

The news that the North District Alien Race was under Gao Neng’s control could no longer be kept secret.

Once the great war in the Eastern District broke out!

All the alien races would find out.

Since that was the case…

Why bother hiding it?

“What?!”

“The reinforcements you mentioned are the aliens from the Northern District Battlefield?!”

“How is that possible?”

“Councillor Gao, please don’t joke around. The very survival of the Human Alliance is at stake! The North District Alien Race are our mortal enemies. How could they possibly help us?”

“That’s right, Councillor Gao…”

“…”

The councillors couldn’t believe it.

In fact, it wasn’t just them. Even Qin Lei and the others, who had remained silent, now wore expressions of disbelief.

‘Reinforcements from the north?’

‘Does that mean the North District Alien Race?!’

This news… was truly too astonishing.

“Explaining it would be a bit complicated, but the fact is, the twenty-five races of the North District are indeed under my control,” Gao Neng said with a wave of his hand.

“Under your control?”

“Councillor Gao, are you sure you’re not joking?”

“The North District has over a dozen Strongest. How could they possibly be under your con—”

“…”

The councillors didn’t finish their sentences.

Because Gao Neng had already started tossing ‘bottles’ onto the council table.

The bottles themselves weren’t anything special.

They were just ordinary water bottles. However, the multi-colored liquids sloshing inside them made the eyes of every councillor, as well as Qin Lei and the others, go wide.

After all, they were all old foxes…

How could they not recognize what was inside those bottles?

“Is that the Spring of Life?!”

“No, it’s not just the Spring of Life… There’s also the Water of Rebirth!”

“It’s the sacred liquid from the aliens’ evolution sources! My god… I’ve never seen so much in my entire life! No, I’ve never even seen two bottles at once!”

“There’s more?! I… Damn! That’s a huge bottle…”

“Not just one huge bottle, but several… No, wait, more than ten huge bottles!!!”

“…”

The councillors were truly stunned.

One had to understand, this kind of ‘Holy Spring’ was usually under the direct control of the alien royal families.

To put it bluntly, the ‘Holy Spring’ was the alien races’ most precious treasure.

Even members of the alien royal families, some favored princes and princesses, could only obtain the ‘Holy Spring’ based on their talent and contributions.

And what were the chances of the Human Alliance getting their hands on it?

It was basically like winning the lottery!

Once, Lin Ying of the Eastern Capital Military Academy had unexpectedly obtained a small vial—in reality, it was just two or three drops—but even so, he had leaped to become the academy’s number one genius.

This just went to show how precious this substance was.

But how much had Gao Neng just produced?

A whole table full!

Furthermore, the smallest bottle was the size of a standard water bottle, while the most exaggerated ones were as large as buckets.

How terrifying was that?

How astonishing?

All the councillors and Strongest were completely dumbfounded.

Because, in terms of value, this table of ‘sacred liquid’ could be said to be worth more than the total resources of the entire Human Alliance!

After all, this was nearly a hundred years’ worth of savings from the entire North District Alien Race.

Gao Neng had returned from the North District.

He had done only one thing: he had completely cleaned out all the ‘sacred liquid’ from the evolution sources of the North District Alien Race in one fell swoop.

“This is a hundred years of accumulated ‘evolutionary energy’ from the twenty-five races of the North District. Can you believe me now?” Gao Neng asked, pointing at the table full of bottles.

GULP!

Li Tiannan didn’t answer.

But he subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

‘I really want to take a sip…’

GULP!

GULP!

The rich aroma made the other councillors swallow one after another.

“Gao Neng… No, Councillor Gao, did you snatch all of this from the North District Alien Race?” a councillor asked, his eyes glued to the bottles on the table.

“I didn’t snatch it. I just took it,” Gao Neng replied casually.

“So… the aliens on the Northern District Battlefield are really under your control? But, I don’t quite understand, why? Why would they listen to you?”

“That’s right, you’re a human and they’re aliens. It doesn’t make any sense!”

“Humans and aliens are natural enemies… Even… alright, even if none of them are a match for you, there’s still no reason for them to obey your orders, right?”

The councillors still didn’t quite understand.

“Because I control their sources of evolution,” Gao Neng explained in the simplest possible way.

“You control their sources of evolution?”

“Correct. To put it simply, I control their life and death. If they go against my will, I can obliterate them at any time. I could even… wipe out their entire race!” Gao Neng nodded.

“In that case… if you can wipe them out, then why not…” The councillor’s eyes flickered, but he ultimately swallowed the rest of his words.

“Using the enemy to fight the enemy is indeed an excellent strategy!” Wu Qingjing spoke up at this moment, then shot to his feet. “Alright, everyone! Gao Neng has proven that he does indeed control the North District Alien Race. Although he can’t explain the specific process of how he controls them, these are special times. And special times call for special measures. I trust Gao Neng’s decision.”

“I trust him too!”

“Yes, I’m willing to trust him as well!”

“…”

Soon, three more councillors stood up.

“I’m afraid it’s not a question of trust right now, is it? What if something goes wrong… I’m talking about a worst-case scenario. For example: what if Gao Neng has been deceived? What if the North District Alien Race offered up this ‘sacred liquid’ to gain his trust, only to join forces with the Eastern District aliens while pretending to be reinforcements!”

“Exactly! Even though the possibility is small, what if it happens? If that situation truly occurs, we’ll be completely unable to stop them!”

“Not just unable to stop them, the Human Alliance might very well be destroyed…”

“Mm, Elder Wang is right. I think there’s another possibility. What if the North District aliens have indeed submitted to us for now, but once the war starts and they see the Eastern Region Alien Race Alliance Army has the absolute advantage, won’t they turn on us?”

“Those who are not of our race are bound to have different allegiances!”

“We still have to be careful!”

Immediately, other councillors raised different opinions.

“The problem right now is that we can’t stop the Eastern Region Alien Race Alliance Army at all! If we don’t rely on the reinforcements from the North District, we will undoubtedly lose this battle!” Wu Qingjing grew anxious as he heard the arguments around him.

“That’s true…”

“An Allied Army of 300,000 aliens… that’s really not something we can hold back…”

“Councillor Gao, it’s not that we don’t trust you, but where did you get this information? Will the Eastern Region Alien Race Alliance Army really attack the city with an Allied Army of 300,000?”

“…”

“I just feel uneasy about colluding with aliens!”

“But if it’s confirmed that the aliens really have an Allied Army of 300,000, then it seems we have no choice but to trust him…”

“Yeah, there’s no other way!”

CRACK!

Just as the councillors were arguing, a crisp sound came from outside the military tent.

Then, the tent flap was thrown open.

This made the arguing councillors stop instantly.

“Commander Qin?”

“I can’t believe Commander Qin has woken up!”

Seeing the person who entered, a look of joy appeared on the councillors’ faces.

“Gao Neng, thank you!”

THUD!

Qin Jianfei dropped directly to one knee.

“Thank you for retrieving my master’s body. I, Qin Jianfei…”

“Commander Qin, please rise!” Gao Neng stepped forward, caught Qin Jianfei before he could bow again, and pulled him straight up from the ground.

This left Qin Jianfei slightly stunned.

‘So he really is Tier Nine?’

‘But I’m a Tier Nine Late Stage powerhouse, just a step away from becoming one of the Strongest. In terms of strength… I was actually overpowered by Gao Neng, who just reached Tier Nine?’

Shaking off his astonishment, Qin Jianfei didn’t dwell on it. His gaze quickly turned grim.

“I just received the latest intelligence. The Eastern Region Alien Race Alliance Army has suddenly been reinforced with 200,000 more troops. Their total forces have now reached 300,000. Moreover, they have already begun to assemble. I estimate they will launch their attack within two hours at most!”
