In this room, many people are focused on only two things: a series of mysteries surrounding the witchers, and what the alien race holds next.Now that Hao Ren has clearly answered the first question, it is natural to discuss the direction of the second question.When the various families didn't know what was going on inside the witchers, they didn't know what to do next, because they weren't sure if the predators really disappeared, they were divided into several factions, including the radicals in the square, the conservatives in the council room, the investigation of the situation outside the shelter, the tea drinking faction rubbing tea in the corner of the room, and the **** egg faction like Hesperis, and now that the fog of the witchers has finally been revealed, many of the arguments of these factions have lost their footing, Everyone can finally think about the future with a clearer mind."
The witchers aren't gone, they're still there," Jean?
Lucas began by pointing out the most crucial factor, "Although the hunt is over, they are still there – that's the big problem."
Your Excellency the Countess, you are now a witcher......
Well, Leader, what do you think the witchers will do next?
”Jean?
Lucas's face was distorted as he said the last sentence, the old vampire who had always admired aristocratic moderation and grace could barely maintain his image at the moment, he had never encountered such a painful thing in his life: he knew every word he spoke, but when combined it sounded like a nervous ......
"Honorary leader, honorary leader," Vivien waved her hand, "and legally I am not even as high as the husky next to me."
And as you know, the witchers can't really hand over power to either of us, so our binding power on them is still about zero.But I can be sure of the attitude of the witchers: they will not continue to hunt, but they will continue to maintain the 'balance' in this world, and that balance is the status quo.They stopped hunting because there was no reason to continue the war against the aliens, but if you declared war on your own initiative, even against humanity, they would find that reason. ”"And we're going to be locked up in these shelters?"
The old werewolf Hogwover slapped the table heavily, "Maintain balance?
Is the so-called balance to keep us in the gutter forever?
Times have changed, Vivien?
Your Excellency Ansesta, we must also change, we want honor......"
Before the old werewolf finished speaking, Izax hugged his arms and smiled: "Honor is fart, what you want is profit." ”Who is Itzax?
He has been cutting ...... in his life More people than everyone on the scene knew him, peddlers and pawns, kings and beggars, and he had seen all kinds of life.Although he himself was eventually defeated by the "hearts of the people", he was still able to grasp the hearts of the people very thoroughly.The old demon knew very well that soldiers could fight for honor, horsemen could die for honor, and even loyal generals could die generously for honor, but only qualified leaders did not talk about this.Because behind the leader is the life and death of countless people, and his "honor" is to seek the benefit of his own people, and they only need to talk about this.Itzhax also showed a lot of faces on the side of the shelter, this powerful demon king still spoke with a lot of weight, his simple and straightforward expression made the family leaders and power representatives present look sideways, Heatherian couldn't help muttering: "Big man, why are you talking so realistically......"
"Okay, I like this way of talking," Hogwaff was very happy after being robbed by Itzax, and the old werewolf pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that was as lethal as Itzax, " Anyway, everyone present is an understanding person, and Vivian is also a respected elder, so don't play any tricks in front of her.That's right, interests - only this can maintain the balance.To be honest, I'm not in favor of attacking the human world, because I know that humans are not easy to deal with right now, and now that the witchers have not disappeared, it would be unwise to run out and go to war.But I also don't agree with continuing to be stuffed in the shelter, guarding these barren alien spaces with no future at all.There is a vast and fertile world outside of us, and there should be a place for us in this world. ”"The main body of civilization on this planet is human civilization," Hao Ren knocked on the table, "and you ......
Now you are not even a civilization, you are almost dependent on human society for survival, so you yourself should know that it is not realistic to counterattack the earth. ”"The way you speak makes me feel uncomfortable," Jean?
Lucas shrugged, "But you have a point. ”"You're thinking too much of humans," a Daredevil Lord who had never spoken suddenly spoke, her eyes flashing as if they contained a thunderstorm, "I understand human society, their war machines and the whole race is undoubtedly lethal, but they themselves are fragile, and their destructive power is far beyond their own capabilities, which means that they can be easily defeated. ”As she spoke, the Night Demon Lady turned her face and stared at Hao Ren's eyes without flinching: "There are not a few people who think like me, we all know that humans are difficult to deal with, but we also know that it is not impossible to deal with, as long as this 'hope' is still there, there will always be restless people who want to try their luck."
And more importantly......
A few years ago, humans were just slaves, so if there was the slightest chance to put them back in cages, many would try their luck. ”Compared to the young people who shouted in the square, this Daredevil Lady represented a truly dangerous alien race.They are not impulsive doers, but they have a certain grasp of the situation on the planet.They are a group of people who are still restless despite knowing the strength of humanity and the remaining power of the current witchers, and this group of deliberate actions is even more troublesome.However, Hao Ren didn't care, he just spread his hands: "That's right, after my calculations, if the time and place are just right, and the different races can really grasp every opportunity at hand, you really have a 'chance' to defeat the human race." ”As soon as these words came out, there was a strange commotion in the conference room, and even Heathera glanced at Hao Ren curiously, not knowing what he meant."
You are the ultimate victors," Hao Ren ignored the commotion, he just tapped on the data terminal and presented a set of holographic projections showing the Earth after the scorched earth, "You will undoubtedly take ownership of this planet - but your population will only be two to three thousand, because only the best supernatural beings can survive this war."
On top of that, humanity will all perish, as will the biosphere, and neither will the witchers.That's the best I can imagine: you've won, you've ruled the planet, and the last 2,000 of you will be the masters of the planet, ruling over all the rad craters, sludge swamps, poisonous rivers, and hot deserts of radiant fallout, and you'll continue to survive on this planet in a hominid-like form, with the main food being the rot left over from the last century and the mud from the craters, and the few who survive the best will survive to the end - and then live forever in the mud, Until the restart of the life cycle of the next planet. ”The holographic projection was over, Hao Ren knocked on the table to bring the people on the scene back to their senses, he supported the table with both hands, and his face was expressionless: "You don't think you don't need dead people to fight, do you?"
You don't think you're going to be able to crush it, do you?
There is a price to be paid on both sides of the war, and that price is much greater than what you can gain.Since you can't crush humanity, be prepared to lose both, and believe me, that victory is no more comfortable than your days in the sanctuary."
So, since your goal is to seek greater good, and not to fight humanity to the end for the sake of that 'sense of historical honor', then why do you choose such a brainless war route?"
Perhaps the "victorious ending" he described was too shocking, or perhaps the family leaders in the venue had actually considered the question of the cost of victory and defeat before, in short, the scene fell into a temporary silence.It is certainly impossible to convince these old fritters with a mere set of virtual images and Hao Ren's empty vernacular, but these people themselves are not fools, and they can naturally distinguish the most reliable part of Hao Ren's words."
Then you have to take the middle ground," Jean?
Lucas said, his gaze falling on Vivien, knowing that the Ancient Man had probably made some arrangements, and might even have reached some kind of agreement with the witchers, and that all the arguments and conclusions now were just a foreshadowing of this "arrangement," you can say. ”"Aliens must not continue to hide in shelters in the future, but they must not interfere with human civilization; A truce between the witchers and the aliens, and subsequent negotiations will be discussed separately; Form a regulatory organization, since the old balance and order can no longer be maintained, then we will establish a new one, and use a new organization to control those who leave the shelter and enter human society......"
Vivien directly said the things agreed with Hao Ren before.
