Come back from the side.

Han Ling sat down next to Shen Heng.

Looking over, one could see that Shen Heng's eyes were still slightly unfocused, as if he were pondering something.

Without being disturbed, Han Ling turned her gaze to the center.

There, the group was still arguing, but no one could convince anyone else.

After a long silence, a heavy shout rang out.

"Alright!"

Wang Hu interrupted the argument once again, then turned to look at Liang Yanhao.

Many people opposed continuing the action, but the main supporter was Liang Yanhao, even though he, like himself, had barely participated in the discussion during the recent controversy.

But those who opposed him persisted because of his initial stance.

We've been in the Erosion Zone for about six months now.

Although they don't interact with every inspector, many still subconsciously use the ranking of the exploration teams at the base to determine who they should primarily follow.

Therefore, if you can persuade the other party, then the problem is more than half solved.

Wang Hu looked at Liang Yanhao and said:

"Do you believe that continuing with the past actions is not feasible?"

"No," Liang Yanhao said briefly, then added, "I just think it's not very feasible!"

"So you're against continuing the operation?" Wang Hu looked at Liang Yanhao with a serious expression.

"That's only one aspect. Another reason is that even if we succeed, it won't be very meaningful!" Liang Yanhao said succinctly.

"Why is it not very meaningful?" Wang Hu asked in a deep voice.

"The inspectors who participated in this mission are undoubtedly the elite of the elite," Liang Yanhao said.

"And these elites are all carefully cultivated by our country."

"Perhaps it doesn't represent the entire Supervision Bureau, but it represents about a tenth or a quarter or a fifth of the base, I think that's fine."

But what about the goal?

After a pause, Liang Yanhao looked at Wang Hu with utmost seriousness.

"The target is just one of the twelve Anchor Point. So what if it's destroyed? What significant impact will it have on the Calamity Beast?"

"We destroyed it today, but the Calamity Beast will rebuild it in a while."

"The value of both sides is completely unequal. It would be completely irrational to gamble our lives on whether we can stop the communication of the Calamity Beast in time."

"Therefore, our best course of action is to abandon these last two Anchor Point, and wait until the Calamity Beast re-establish Anchor Point before scouting them again and deciding whether to destroy them once more!"

"That's right!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many voices of agreement immediately rang out from the side.

Wang Hu ignored the others and looked at Liang Yanhao with a serious expression.

"Some things cannot be judged solely on whether they are equal in value!"

"Today, it's just a possibility, and we have the ability to stop it. If we don't do anything about it now, what will we do when we face even greater difficulties in the future?"

Should we back down, or grit our teeth and push forward?

"It won't even require much difficulty, just a little bit, the same kind of difficulty as today! What will you choose then?"

"If you get a refund this time, will you get a refund next time? If you get a refund next time, will you get a refund the time after that?"

"If you withdraw every time, what's the point of our actions?"

"If you're not going to back down, then why not just stop backing down from this time onwards?"

"Well said!" someone nearby exclaimed.

Wang Hu ignored the people around him and continued to look at Liang Yanhao with a serious expression.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step!

"This is a principle that even elementary school students know, I don't need to tell you, do I?"

"We were already facing a very limited time situation when confronted with the Ruins Realm. If we don't accumulate time bit by bit, where else can we seize it?"

"What you say about being able to stop it is ultimately just a possibility!" Liang Yanhao said calmly.

"Indeed, it's only a possibility, but what we should be discussing is finding as many ways as possible to stop it, not whether or not to go!" Wang Hu said in a deep voice.

However, Liang Yanhao remained unmoved.

"We are not Calamity Beast, and we don't know anything about them. In other words, it's unlikely we can consider all possibilities. Going there under these circumstances would be far too risky."

"For example, what if there's a high-level Calamity Beast Calamity Beast on the other side that isn't recorded? Even if it's high-level, it won't be very big, making it impossible for Shen Heng to identify it. What should he do then?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu frowned deeply.

He really didn't have a good way to refute this possibility, but...

He still has no intention of giving up!!

Shifting his gaze to the side, Wang Hu looked around at everyone, his eyes lingering on Shen Heng, who was deep in thought, before finally settling on Liang Yanhao.

"Since neither of us can convince the other, let's have a vote to decide!"

Liang Yanhao paused for a moment, then nodded.

Wang Hu stood up, looked at everyone, and said,

"Now, each team, discuss and come up with a unified plan. We'll vote in three minutes!"

Many people glanced at it, and then began to whisper among themselves.

Beside him, Lin Zhaoran glanced at Shen Heng Shen Heng, who was still deep in thought.

As the team leader, Shen Heng only asked a question at the very beginning and then remained silent.

In comparison, Wang Hu and Liang Yanhao seem more like the team leaders.

Lin Zhaoran looked at Shen Heng with some curiosity, wondering what he was thinking.

Yu Yanhui nearby, had already started asking questions.

" Sister Zhaoran, should we...?"

A moment later, Wang Hu stood up again.

"Now, let's vote! Raise your hand if you support the action team!"

After saying that, Wang Hu glanced around, then his brows quickly furrowed.

There were only three hands raised, including one's own!

That means there are only three squads supporting the operation!

Suppressing his emotions, Wang Hu continued:

"Now, raise your hands if you support the inaction team!"

Several hands were raised one after another. Wang Hu glanced at them, then paused slightly in surprise.

Only four hands were raised, still more than theirs, but...

There are eight people in the squad!

Four teams voted against taking action, three teams voted against taking action, and who's in charge?

Wang Hu's gaze swept across the area and quickly landed on the teams that had not yet expressed their opinions.

" Shen Heng, what's your team's opinion?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze in that direction.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Shen Heng slowly withdrew his gaze.

He frowned, then lowered his head to think for a moment before saying:

"Go ahead and fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Yanhao frowned slightly.

Wang Hu's lips began to curl upwards.

Even with Shen Heng's team supporting the operation, the score remained 4-4.

But as the team leader designated by the base, Shen Heng's votes should carry more weight, right?

However, before Wang Hu's smile could completely fade, Shen Heng's voice continued.

"But that's not the point to establish this Anchor Point!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback, and looked at Shen Heng with some confusion.

If not setting this Anchor Point, then what is it?

"What do you mean by this?" Liang Yanhao asked in a deep voice.

Under everyone's gaze, Shen Heng slowly said:

" The Calamity Beast has a more than 90% chance of taking action after learning of our plan; the only uncertainty is how it will act."

"But no matter what actions are taken, whether to strengthen the defenses of the Anchor Point or to devise some conspiracy, the principle of troop deployment must always be followed; you can't conjure up Calamity Beast out of thin air."

"As for the Fifth Tier Calamity Beast, based on the information we have so far, they should all have their own responsibilities to bear."

In other words...

After a pause, Shen Heng looked at everyone with a serious expression.

"If we want to gather Calamity Beast alone, the best scenario would be to bring over a nearby Calamity Beast. If that's the case..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Hu and Liang Yanhao's expressions had already changed.

Their pupils contracted slightly.

If that's the case, then the best approach isn't actually to set this Anchor Point, but rather...
