Chapter 574: Chapter 283: Godspeed Source Crystal! (Two-in-One) _3 "Uniting all the First Region star systems connected to the Second Region to deal with us... what a fanciful idea!" Belinda scoffed. "If they were asking for four-stars, other systems might be skeptical but still agree. But they’re asking for five-stars! Who would be willing? Weaker star systems couldn’t afford to send one, and if only the stronger star systems contributed, they’d feel it was unfair. After all, *we’re* supposedly their common enemy." Jiang Yun laughed and said, "Indeed. There is an old saying in China: ’It is not scarcity that is to be feared, but unfairness.’ This is highly pertinent. If we suddenly received such information, how should we react?" "We’re under constant pressure from the Yongming Star System and don’t even know if we can escape the First Region. Do we really have the luxury to preemptively eliminate a future powerhouse in the Second Region? Even if I knew the opponent had limitless potential, I wouldn’t bother sending anyone," Belinda replied curtly. "But we’re currently looking at this from the perspective of weaker star systems. For stronger star systems, if they have the spare capacity, they might indeed be willing to deal with such a significant potential threat," Markus said, considering it from their point of view. "Although the saying goes ’fear not scarcity, but unfairness,’ if a star system is exceptionally powerful and has resources to spare, it’s plausible they might contribute some personnel to eliminate an aberration that defies common sense and shouldn’t exist." "There’s some truth to what you’re saying, but even if that possibility exists, it’s very slim," Belinda still felt it was improbable. "As far as I know, there aren’t any star systems of that caliber nearby. Not even one star system has managed to unify the entire First Region yet." "According to the Yongming Star System’s proposal, each star system would dispatch one person. If it’s truly just one, and if the Yongming Star System is willing to offer compensation during this period, then the loss to other star systems would indeed be minimal." "Then the Yongming Star System would have a lot of compensation to provide! Hundreds of five-star professionals... if they had to compensate for every single one, that would be an enormous expense!" "How much the Yongming Star System has to pay isn’t our primary concern right now," Jiang Yun stated. "The real question is whether the other star systems will actually be deceived by the Yongming Star System’s malicious propaganda and unite against us." "Even if some believed it, they would investigate first. The time that investigation takes alone would be enough for Chen Mo’s strength to rise to another level. Even if they did manage to gather a hundred five-star professionals, I don’t think they could defeat Chen Mo. Right now, Chen Mo has already broken through Level 40 and Level 45 consecutively. Once he reaches Level 60 and achieves the third-transition! If we spare no expense to help him acquire an SSS-level pet, it’ll be a completely different story whether a hundred five-star professionals could even touch him." "Indeed. Even taking a huge leap and assuming they agreed and actually sent a hundred five-star professionals, they surely wouldn’t be willing to send five-star professionals who have soul-contracted SSS-level pets, would they? SSS-level pets are exceptionally valuable assets in any star system." "For now, let’s not concern ourselves with what the other star systems will decide. We can’t influence or predict their choices; we just need to focus on our own responsibilities. Lately, we must reinforce our efforts in dispatching personnel to monitor our world. They’re very likely to send investigators, and we need to obstruct their reconnaissance. If they lack concrete information, the chances of them forming an alliance will decrease, giving Chen Mo more time to develop. Once he’s truly powerful, no matter what schemes they try, nothing will be effective!" Jiang Yun gazed into the distance, his eyes holding a far-reaching look. Just endure a little longer, and the hope for the Solar System to rise completely is almost within reach.
