After thinking it over, Li Chen quickly made a decision.
He planned to directly reject Mu Xiao's terms—or rather, to scale them down.
But before Li Chen could refuse him, at that moment—
Noah's voice rang out beside Li Chen's ear.
Host, you can absolutely agree to Mu Xiao's terms.
Noah reminded him.
"Oh?"
"Why?"
Li Chen was rather curious.
Since Noah had made the suggestion, he wanted to hear him out properly.
To see what insight this one from a Tier 3 Universe Civilization—
A well-informed—
Powerful Artificial Intelligence life-form—
Had to offer.
"Go on, Noah."
"Why should I agree to his terms?"
"You should know that agreeing to this condition would seriously slow down the Star-Level Shelter's own development."
"District Ten alone has so many powerful civilizations."
"They could make things unbearable for us with the flick of a finger."
"If I don't prioritize the Star-Level Shelter's own development, wouldn't that be inappropriate?"
To be honest, Li Chen felt rather speechless about it as well.
When he had first become aware of the Shadow Organization's existence—
He had known this might be the outcome someday.
Both sides were colossal entities.
Although they were on the same Earth—
And had kept to themselves without interfering with one another—
The Shadow Organization's Space Shelter was simply far too enormous.
Its area was even larger than Earth's.
One could imagine the energy such a gigantic entity consumed.
At present, everyone was like frogs at the bottom of a well, trapped on Earth.
That was still manageable.
But once the interstellar resource extraction plan truly began in the future—
The Star-Level Shelter and the Space Shelter would probably fall into an unavoidable conflict.
After all, resources were nonrenewable.
The seemingly vast universe was, for the most part, already claimed.
Only Sixth Community
