Chapter 40 Periphery
When the meeting ended, Chen Yi sat in his seat and did not leave.
Lin Weisheng walked over and patted Chen Yi on the shoulder: "Don't mind, Shi Zhen has such a straight temper and can easily offend people, but he is a rare good player in combat and a trustworthy comrade-in-arms."
"Don't worry, I will handle my relationship with him properly." Chen Yi said with a smile.
"That's good. I believe you have the ability to do this. By the way, I will leave the reconnaissance of the spaceport tomorrow to you. How about it? I'm not at ease to leave it to others."
Unexpectedly, Chen Yi shook his head and said, "Let your people do this. I have some private matters these two days and I want to deal with them alone."
"That's it..." Lin Weisheng thought for a while and finally nodded, "Okay, you don't belong to the Wanxiang Palace after all, and I can't ask you for anything too much. But be careful in everything, once you put the order, then Helpers may pounce on you and tear you apart."
"Don't worry, I will deal with it carefully." Chen Yi smiled.
Lin Weisheng comforted Chen Yi and left by himself like a superior who comforted his subordinates.
Chen Yi was still sitting in the seat thinking alone, frowning.
Wenrou walked over and sat beside him and asked, "Do you want to take the opportunity to get the Hellfire Engine?"
"Yeah." Chen Yi responded without comment.
"Why don't you explain directly to Lin Weisheng? Maybe his people can help us."
"Because I haven't figured out some things yet, I want to wait until I figured it out before making a decision."
"Oh?" Gentle and Rou felt curious: "I thought there was nothing you couldn't figure out. As we walked all the way, it seems that there was no problem that stumped you."
"This time is different." Chen Yi shook his head and replied.
"What's the difference? Aren't it all about dealing with the enemy, making plans, and implementing actions?" King Kong asked. He and Honglang and others also walked back. After the previous meeting, the Blade Team was in this conference room. Another small meeting.
Chen Yi shook his head: "The problem is here. In the past, we made plans to let the enemy go as we did, but this time, I felt something was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know." Chen Yi shook his head: "But I have a feeling that our opponent seems to have made a trap and is waiting for us to drill into it. If we were the ones who took the initiative before, we would come. If we decide how to fight this battle, then this time, things will be the opposite. If we cannot get rid of this unfavorable situation, I am worried that we will become the targets we have defeated at the beginning..."
Vajra Gentle and others looked at each other a few times.
King Kong said in a deep voice: "Can you think too much? This incident may be just a coincidence. Maybe the East District also wants to get information from the security center. As a result, it happened to find that we were here, so I temporarily decided to change my methods and change them. Start with Imida.”
"Do you think the layout I mean is a traitor?" Chen Yi asked back.
Everyone was stunned.
Gentle asked: "It's not a traitor, so what else is there?"
Chen Yi has replied: "The appearance of the Baibian Yaoji is by no means a coincidence, but this is not the most important thing. What is important is that when I was fighting with her, I noticed that she had an extraordinary confidence."
"You must always have confidence in fighting." Hong Lang replied casually: "No matter what situation you face, you must have confidence in solving your opponent. Even if you are blindly trusting, it is better than not being confident and not even confident. You don't even have confidence. Fuck it?"
He relies on courage to make a living. For him, even impulsive, reckless, and stubborn are more valuable and meaningful than smart and cautious. Therefore, he does not care about the confidence of the opponent that Chen Yi said.
Chen Yi shook his head and said, "She is not confident in fighting, but in fact she never thought she could win me."
Although the battle with Baibian Yaoji was short, Chen Yi could still realize that Baibian Yaoji had a serious lack of confidence when facing her. This is why she attacked, disguised, escaped, showed weakness, and all kinds of methods were all together. Go out and eventually retreat.
However, Chen Yi still saw another kind of self-confidence in her. This self-confidence is not the confidence that he can defeat Chen Yi, but the confidence that the East District will inevitably be able to return to a great victory in the future. It is a kind of self-confidence that everything is in control. .
Chen Yi said slowly: "She thinks the East District can win."
The fat men and women of Honglang looked at each other, obviously they had not kept up with Chen Yi's thinking for a while.
Fortunately, King Kong finally understood what Chen Yi meant: "You think the East District has a plan to make them stand firm and stand invincible. This is why you can only escape when facing the vanity of magicians, but you don't have the whole situation. Are you worried about the performance at all?”
Chen Yi nodded: "Yes, but it's not just her. Didn't you notice that from entering the mission world to the present, our Lin Weisheng Lin King has not shown too much concern about the battle situation? Even if you know that Edmund came in person , He was not too anxious. By the way, there was Cliff... Edmund actually brought him in, and did the West End show that he had been unbalanced in confidence in the battle? In the previous battle, it wasn't it Have Affleck, Parma and Xie Rongjun never taken action? There is also Shura Sword... The first artifact of the Blood Legion in the North District, when the Blood Legion handed it to the boy, he never thought about it once. What will be the result of defeat? Even if the people in the North District are used to fighting with courage, they will not be so brainless, right?"
He looked up at everyone present: "Each district shows its own unique confidence... Where does their confidence come from? Just those powerful artifacts?"
"No..." Chen Yi shook his head: "I used to think that the trump cards that the four major organizations rely on were some hidden masters, artifacts, etc., but now I suddenly realized that I was wrong. Artifacts are not trump cards, they are just bets. .In a shocking bet, the bet may have the advantage of capital overpowering people, but it is definitely not the key to winning.”
"Don't they already have a plan to join forces with the three districts? Maybe this is what they rely on." Wenrou was puzzled.
"But when did you see that they have a little bit of unity?" Chen Yi asked back.
Gentle can't answer.
Chen Yi said: "Union is just an agreement, but there are no specific steps in action. This shows that the three major organizations do not think that they can have a real alliance. At best, it is the firepower meeting for the West District during the melee of the four districts. It is more concentrated. When making plans, it will be more considered to deal with the West District. This is the greatest unity."
"Then why are they so confident?" Zhou Yiyu completely didn't understand.
"I don't know either." Chen Yi spread his hands: "But what I know now is that the plan for the death race began long before we entered the world of fairy swords. So in terms of preparation, the Purgatory Sect will only be more fully qualified than us. , more prepared. As for the other three zones, they broke in even though they knew that the Purgatory Sect had a bridge. Are they impulsive and brainless? A brainless adventurer may also become a general with the help of his teammates. For example, Honglang…”
"Damn!" Honglang rolled his eyes.
Chen Yi ignored him and continued: "...But a brainless organization will never dominate the city. So they should not and should put their hopes of victory or defeat on one or two magical artifacts, or one or two powerful and smart-minded ones. Adventurers should have a complete solution that can cope with and solve any situation, which is in line with the thinking habits or political skills that a large organization should have.”
"You mean... a real game, a game where we used to deal with those mission goals, regardless of the outcome, we can advance, attack, retreat, and defend, and stand firmly in an unbeaten game?" King Kong had completely understood Chen Yi's previous words Meaning.
"Yes." Chen Yi nodded: "Although I have never liked to admit the concept of bureau, it does exist. This is what I am considering now... I don't know what the hell are they doing, but I I am very worried that if we can't see through this situation, then we will be the one who will be unlucky in the future."
Everyone was shocked at the same time when they heard it.
Chen Yi rarely has such alarmist moments, and most of the time, he is full of confidence.
It is precisely because of this that when Chen Yi showed lack of confidence and concern for the future, he also put a heavy burden on everyone's psychology.
The atmosphere became solemn. Everyone was thinking about what the four major organizations were doing behind their backs. Occasionally, they would put forward some ideas, but they were all denied by Chen Yi.
Time passes by minute by minute, but the problem is not solved, and the atmosphere becomes more and more tense.
Hong Lang finally couldn't stand the solidification of everyone's aura and shouted: "I really can't figure out what else there is to do. No matter what, the four major forces cannot know the situation in the mission world in advance. , It's impossible for them to do any additional arrangements?"
Gentle and Rou said angrily: "Don't know the situation in the mission world does not mean that there is no arrangement. It is like the key factor that determines the victory of the war, and it may not always be on the battlefield."
Chen Yi's heart was slightly moved: "Gentle is right. The plans of the four major organizations should have been formulated before entering the mission world, so the key point may not be in the mission world."
"Can they still have to make a game on the interstellar battlefield? The meaning of existence here is to deceive Edmund into it. Fortunately, the world of five difficulty levels gave the Purgatory Clan a severe blow?" Zhou Yiyu asked.
Chen Yi nodded: "It's not that there is no possibility. But this approach is undoubtedly expanding the war, and the Supreme Parliament will definitely not accept it."
"Who can tell it clearly? Maybe the three major organizations will go crazy together." King Kong sighed: "But no matter what, if the plan is outside the task, then no matter how we do it, there is no way to solve it. What we can deal with is the current affairs of three-point land, and it may not be well managed. As for the outside, who cares about their winning or losing."
"I'm afraid that the outside plan will have a fundamental impact on the actions inside." He replied softly and weakly: "Who knows what these guys are thinking in their heads? Chen Yi is right, I've been in contact these two days. After that, I also think some people's attitudes are very subtle."
"What are you referring to?" asked the fat man.
Wenrou thought for a while and replied: "Just like the Baibian Yaoji gives Chen Yi the feeling, some of the people around us seem to have extraordinary confidence."
"Confident South District will definitely win?"
Gentle recalled it seriously for a while, then shook his head: "No, it's because of confidence that I won't lose."
"Will you lose?" Chen Yi suddenly sat up:
His eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, damn it, she is not confident that she can win, but that she is confident that she will not lose!"
Everyone looked at each other in surprise, Hong Lang asked in surprise: "Boss, are you okay? Isn't it the same thing to win or not lose?"
"Of course it's not the same thing!" Chen Yi replied seriously: "In a war of struggle between multiple parties, there may be only one winner, but there may be many people who are not losing. But the most important thing is the way large organizations consider problems. Unlike us, victory is never their first pursuit, because they are already at the peak of the city. So how to maintain their own interests to the greatest extent in a desperate battle is what they need to consider. The saying is that no matter whether they win or lose, they will not pay too much..."
Everyone shrugged at the same time: "I don't understand."
Hong Lang even said directly: "Loss means losing. How can you not pay any capital if you lose?"
"Did you forget the bet on the outside?" Chen Yiyouran asked.
gambling?
Everyone's hearts trembled at the same time.
King Kong suddenly realized his eyes: "The four major organizations must have placed heavy bets in the peripheral bets!"
Gentle and cold-hearted interface: "As long as you press the right bet, the winner will make a lot of money, and the loser will also get everything you lost. That's why they dare to participate in this death contest because they have long been Just prepared for failure.”
"Hmph, this is both a referee and a player." Zhou Yiyu also sneered: "But how can they be sure who is the winner? Make an appointment with each other?"
The fat man immediately shook his head: "It's about human life. They can't make a promise, and the adventurers participating in the competition will not accept this agreement."
Hong Lang waved his hand: "If you can't be sure who wins, it's meaningless to put down the bet."
"Who said that?" Chen Yi asked back: "I can't be sure who wins, I can always be sure who loses, right?"
Everyone was stunned again.
King Kong looked at Chen Yi: "You mean..."
Chen Yi's face had become frozen: "From now on, none of these people in the southern district can trust!"
