Chapter 254 Contradictions
"By the grace of the Lord, it seems that everyone is in good spirits. Thank you to the omnipotent Lord for allowing us to spend another day safely in this dangerous world." Early in the morning, Shuer appeared in the restaurant, He greeted each victim of the excavation team with a smile on his face. It had been a long time since everyone had seen such a holy Xiure. In the past few days in the alien projection, his attitude had always been very serious, even when he played pranks a few times. Not so relaxed, the change of attitude now makes these ordinary people have a premonition that maybe the situation will change soon.

"It seems that everyone is full. The worm porridge tastes good, right? Haha, calm down, calm down, we won't fight today. One-sided beatings don't count as fights? Duck, you idiot, shut up." Wielding a mace to threaten, Xiu Er turned to everyone, his expression instantly restored a holy smile, "We have not been here for a short time to rest, and it's time to think about going home. To be honest, I already miss you a little bit." The winds and sands of the western wilderness are gone.”

"Very good, I'm all focused. It seems that this is the issue that everyone is most concerned about, so I won't waste any more nonsense and will explain my future tactical arrangements to you, Saff."

"Wow." The female swordsman held the map in front of her face, avoiding everyone's gaze, and quickly ran to the wall and pasted the hand-drawn map on the wall.

"This is an alien projection map. Some people have never seen what I'm doing. The scope of the map is the alien projection area. This is our location. The other three signs are the exit points, which are our way home. As long as you pass through the breakaway point, everyone can dig and move the rocks again. Well, it doesn’t seem to be something to look forward to. In fact, I don’t tell you that everyone knows that it’s not difficult to pass through the breakaway point. The difficulty lies in how to reach the goal. Lord Say, treat people with sincerity, and I don’t like to hide from the players, so I’ll just tell everyone.”

ha?You don't like it?Several high-level mercenaries who knew the inside story showed very subtle expressions, just listen, hahaha, just listen.

"The specific situation of the three escape points is as follows. Point 50 is a war zone. The escape point is underground and occupied by tens of thousands of cave spiders. It is surrounded by millions of insect swarms outside. Point [-] is the frontline base of another race. It should be regarded as something similar to ours. The area where we are now is enough. The escape point is also underground and has not been occupied by the insect swarm. However, if you want to enter, you must teleport through the ground controlled by the insect swarm. As a result of yesterday's reconnaissance by Moria and I, there are approximately a few meters on the ground. Thousands of insects. Point [-] is the nest of the insect swarm. The number of insects is unknown. It is estimated to be more than [-] and not more than [-]. It is not ruled out that there are defense facilities similar to automatic firearms."

"I think everyone's destiny should be decided by themselves, and the Lord has taught us that we should listen more to other people's opinions when encountering problems. This is the basic situation. Now I give everyone a chance to vote. There are three breakaway points. It is up to everyone to decide. Which way."

This guy didn't sleep last night, so he may not be clear-headed today.Several high-level mercenaries looked at Xiure with strange eyes. They had already discussed the tactics early in the morning, so why did they make a big detour and let these ordinary people decide?Stop making trouble, they don't even have combat experience, let alone tactical experience. What can they decide?However, now that you are the captain, you have the final say. Don't you just want to deceive the spy? In the end, you have to circle back to the decision made this morning, so you can play whatever you want.

Soon, the two mechanical puppets took back the recording paper from the other 26 people. Shuer looked at it and showed a satisfied smile: "Everyone has the same opinion. They all chose point No. [-], which is a wise choice. But , I must remind you that during yesterday’s reconnaissance, we were discovered by the insect swarm at Point [-], so the existing troops at Point [-] may be higher than expected. Of course, it is still less than the other two locations, but after all, there is something Changes, so those who want to change now have one last chance.”

"No, right? That's good. Now let's introduce the tactical arrangements. The action time is set for the morning of the day after tomorrow. Don't ask me why I chose the day after tomorrow. I like it. I will communicate with the controller of the fortress in the past two days and borrow vehicles from her. This will avoid consuming too much of your physical strength. We will protect everyone and go around the area not covered by the carpet, which is safer, and then go directly to the alien teleportation platform. As long as you enter their teleportation platform, you will be victorious."

"It sounds very simple, but the enemy has long-range troops and flying troops, and the combat effectiveness is extremely powerful. In the sea of ​​​​worms, the few of us can barely protect ourselves. Ordinary mercenaries can hardly even protect themselves, so everyone Everyone must be mentally prepared. Everyone, including me, may die in the sea of ​​​​worms. Do you want everyone to go back safely? We are all brave people who dare to leave the city. I don’t think anyone would be so naive. Well. Hey, it’s good that you’re not scared. I’m just saying this to tell everyone that I’ve already said it. Everyone makes their own choices. Don’t complain if anyone dies. You will bear all the consequences yourself.”

"Okay, this is the end of the meeting. Let's keep it simple. Today and tomorrow, let's enjoy two days of peace and comfort. After everything is over the day after tomorrow, hehe, how many people will be able to return to the western wilderness alive?"

"Has your brain been petrified? Or has the mountain wind gotten into your brain?" After the anxious crowd dispersed, Mia stared at Xiure and said angrily, "Others are shirking responsibility, but it's better for you, lest others I don’t want to put the blame on you, right? Now, everyone has chosen point [-]. When the time comes, you change your plan. No matter whether the result is good or bad, as long as someone dies, those ordinary people who don’t understand anything will definitely put the blame on you. The entire blame falls on you for changing your plans.”

"Haha, I never said I wouldn't choose point two." Xiure smiled nonchalantly, "And when I announced the tactics just now, I only said to go directly to the teleportation platform, and I didn't say it was in the Soul Clan base. Those few, you see, I haven’t changed my goals, I haven’t changed my tactics, everything is going according to plan, so what right do they have to blame me?”

Mia looked at Shuer with a straight face and said nothing. After staring for a long time, she looked away: "Why don't you find the parasitized person first? Even if you want to use the brain control worm to deceive the queen of the swarm, , you can also find out the person being controlled first and tell others the truth, so that at least those people can be prepared."

"Oh, Master Mage, why didn't I know when did you become so concerned about the lives and lives of ordinary people?"

"Ordinary people are human beings too, and their death must be worthwhile." Mia sneered, "Besides, they are mentally prepared, and it is us who benefit. At least they will not be caught off guard when the scene comes, and at least they can help us share the pressure."

"Share? Haha, that's funny, I never counted them." Xiuer smiled sarcastically, "They have no qualifications to affect tactics at all, so they just carry out the orders honestly. As for the reason for the order? Yes Their explanation has no meaning other than wasting time and asking for trouble." "Do you think I really just refer to them alone? Oh, they are not qualified, what about us?" Mia's eyes were extremely sharp, "You treat me like this They, what do you think we will think? Should we also carry out the orders honestly, not asking anything, not thinking about anything, and letting you control us, and we are like a group of fools, incomprehensible until the end? "

"Execute orders regardless of the reason. Isn't that what mercenaries do?"

"That was during wartime, not when discussing tactics, and it was not intentional deception. How do we know that you will treat us like you did to them, letting us inexplicably step into the most dangerous situation? Even if we die, we will only Can you blame yourself for being stupid?”

"I have my code of conduct and my method of commanding the troops. Maybe there are indeed some deficiencies, at least too unreasonable, but the past facts have proved to myself that my method is effective." Xiu Er calmed down. , but still tit for tat, "I just want to, and only use my method to lead the team, no matter whether this method makes people uncomfortable or not. You are the employer, and many things can be decided by you. If you are willing to continue to believe in me, Then I am very happy to continue to lead everyone. I can say with certainty that I will do my best to let everyone go back safely, at least try my best to let everyone here go back safely. And if you don’t want to elaborate on me, I can understand, There will be no complaints, just take back the command and handle it in your own way."

"Effective? Haha, an effective method does not mean it is right, nor does it mean there are no sequelae. By the time you discover that the sequelae are fatal, everything is a foregone conclusion and can never be undone."

"Eh? Wait, wait, are you two really quarreling? The more I listen, the more I feel like you are flirting." As the atmosphere became more and more depressing, everyone else made their own choices. While watching, Moria suddenly made a dumb sound at an inappropriate time, "Mia, I tell you, he just rode me yesterday, you are not allowed to have any thoughts about him."

The heavy atmosphere was instantly shattered. The two of them turned their heads together and looked at Moria with pity in their caring eyes.

"Hey, what are you doing staring at me? I'm warning you. Although I'm just a deer, I don't have deer steaks to eat. I'll keep watching. Did I say something wrong? One of you is actually worried that the other party used the wrong method. It leads to self-harm in the end. One is afraid that the other party will feel guilty because too many people died, so he chooses the best option regardless of the consequences and desperately takes the blame on himself. "

"No need to eat batter tonight." Shuer suddenly said seriously.

"Well, we're ready to eat venison steak tonight." Mia thought for a moment and added, "I want it fried, medium rare."

"Eh? I already told you that I don't have deer steak to eat. Don't you understand the common language?" Moria jumped on the spot and said with a smile, "If you want to eat, just eat Saff. Sapp looks like It’s delicious, Shuer must have eaten it.”

"Hey, this deer of yours is hopeless." Shuer rolled his eyes and said awkwardly, "Moria and I will go to point three again later. Although the soul clan mastermind said that the equipment is still It works, but you have to try it before you feel confident, and I plan to borrow two sets of mobile jumping equipment. If something goes wrong, maybe we can save two people."

"Well, then I will sort out the combat supplies in the base and distribute the weapons carried by everyone." Mia also turned her head and did not look at Shuer. "Exhibitionist, you..."

"I've been making scrolls for the past two days, don't disturb me." Mility patrolled between Shure and Mia vigilantly, "And, it's really clumsy..."

"Ahem." Xiure coughed a few times and said awkwardly, "Okay, that's it, Moria, let's go."

"I finally understand. Calling me is like holding a mount. I'm just a deer, not a horse. Help~~~~~"
