"Enough. Settle down, all of you." Qian Wendao pinched the bridge of his nose and let out a long sigh. "If they defected without outright hostility, merely to save the Safe Zone, killing them would accomplish nothing. It wouldn't satisfy the laws governing a breakthrough to the domain sequence."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Wendao cast an almost imperceptible glance at the upper-right corner of the screen.
It showed the separate conference room in Sigma District.
Clearly, the Secretary-General still harbored one last shred of hope. He wanted to see whether Qin Siyang had a chance to ambush and kill an isolated enemy, forcing a breakthrough to the domain sequence and turning their predicament around.
But Qian Wendao could not say so openly, because Qin Siyang had not yet revealed that he was already one step away from the domain sequence.
He was still doing everything he could to keep Qin Siyang out of the spotlight.
On the other side of the screen, Qin Siyang wore a helpless expression. He had already considered the idea.
He said nothing. Instead, he had already turned his camera slightly to face the battlefield outside Sigma District.
Beyond the window, dozens of invaders hovered in the air in an extremely tight tactical formation.
A network woven from petals connected them as they relentlessly bombarded Sigma District's defensive line.
Against firepower on that scale and such coordinated teamwork, Qin Siyang would not be facing one person, but a whole pack of monsters.
Each of them already outclassed him in every aspect of individual strength. Even if Qin Siyang exhausted every trump card and somehow killed one in an instant, the remaining dozens would unleash their skills and blast him to ashes just as quickly.
There was therefore no room whatsoever for Qin Siyang
