underground?
Liang Yanhao frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over the surrounding inspectors. He understood that since Shen Heng had said so, someone must be able to accomplish this.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Shen Heng.
"Aren't you afraid of being attacked by Calamity Beast after diving underground?"
Shen Heng glanced at Zhou Xuan.
"Going in is fine, but if that Fifth Tier Calamity Beast gets involved when we leave, it will have some impact, so," Zhou Xuan paused, then continued:
"If possible, it would be best to kill that Fifth Tier Calamity Beast!"
Shen Heng turned his gaze to Liang Yanhao.
Beside him, Wang Hu chimed in, "Is this alright now? We've killed quite a few Fifth Tier Calamity Beast these past few days!"
However, Liang Yanhao did not reply immediately.
He frowned and pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head.
"The risk is still too great. This isn't Anchor Point; there are too many ordinary Calamity Beast here. Once the battle starts, we'll likely be entangled by a massive number of ordinary Calamity Beast!"
"What kind of martial artist are you!" Wang Hu said through gritted teeth.
"I prefer you to call me a warrior rather than a martial artist!" Liang Yanhao replied.
On Wang Hu's forehead, a vein throbbed slightly. He felt that Liang Yanhao was like Stone in a toilet—hard and smelly.
"In that case, let's vote!"
Liang Yanhao frowned slightly, pondering how to refute.
Based on Shen Heng's statement, it is clear that he supports destroying the Eye of Earth Marrow.
In this situation, based on the voting results just now, the best outcome would be a 4-4 tie!
Furthermore, regardless of whether anyone nearby will be influenced by Shen Heng's team and switch their support, let's not dwell on that for now.
Even if it's a 4-4 tie, as the overall commander of this operation, Shen Heng will inevitably have the outcome favoring the operation.
How should we refute that?... Liang Yanhao frowned in thought.
Shen Heng calmly looked at Liang Yanhao.
In fact, he agreed more with Liang Yanhao's statement than with Wang Hu.
At least, based on the other party's statement, Shen Heng felt that his thought process was quite similar to his own.
The difference in results simply stems from different considerations.
As for Wang Hu, Shen Heng didn't say he opposed his statement, but just thought his ideas were rather simplistic.
Shen Heng slowly shifted his gaze, scanning the crowd.
Some people frowned slightly, some had somber expressions, and some even showed a hint of reluctance in their eyes.
Even if the action is decided by vote, some people may still think to themselves that perhaps it's not necessary to take such a risk.
This idea wouldn't cause any problems under normal circumstances, but when it comes to a crucial moment, it can inevitably affect a person and cause them to hesitate.
If you want everyone to give their all, it's best to...
"Is that what you all think...?"
Calm words echoed through the mountains and forests.
Everyone instinctively turned their heads to look at the person who had just spoken.
Liang Yanhao also looked over.
The young man's expression was calm, yet it carried a clear understanding.
"They believed that facing so many Calamity Beast would result in heavy casualties;"
They believe that each of us is a backbone of the current Supervision Bureau, and there is absolutely no need to risk our lives on this kind of thing;
They thought this was too risky and rushed, and that things should be done more slowly.
"They believe that we are not the only Erosion Zone, and that we don't need to go to such lengths..."
As Shen Heng spoke, his gaze slowly swept across everyone's faces.
Many people who were being watched by him unconsciously looked away.
That's clearly what they think.
"... None of these are wrong."
The conversation paused there. Shen Heng turned his gaze to Liang Yanhao, who was looking at him with a slight frown, and said:
"Infiltrating underground might prevent total annihilation, but facing so many Calamity Beast, destroying the core area of Eye of Earth Marrow would likely result in significant casualties."
"Each of us is indeed a backbone of the department. If we hadn't perished here, we might have been able to make even greater contributions in the future."
"There's no need for us to rush things. It's certainly not impossible to consider it later when we have more strength."
"Given the existence of multiple Erosion Zone, there is indeed no need for us to go to such lengths."
"But..."
Shen Heng paused again, then looked at everyone and said:
"These are all just common sense!"
"Logically speaking, our world shouldn't have been invaded by the Ruins Realm; it should still be a normal world."
Logically speaking, even if the Ruins Realm have invaded, it should have done so gradually, not as it is now, with Erosion Zone appearing.
"Logically speaking, doing so much now wouldn't make much difference, as the Ruins Realm will simply formulate new strategies based on our reactions."
"And finally, when no one reaches the Ninth Tier, we will launch a complete invasion!"
"In other words, no matter how much we do now, it may be meaningless."
"In the end, the Ruins Realm will inevitably invade, and Blue Star will inevitably perish, right?"
These last words caused everyone's expressions to change drastically, and all eyes turned to Shen Heng.
However, Shen Heng's face remained expressionless.
He looked calmly at everyone and said:
"That's human nature; there's nothing strange about it."
"Even before making the decision, I repeatedly asked myself the same question."
"Is it necessary to go this far? Is it really necessary to go this far? Can it be postponed or left for someone else to do?"
"But..."
The words paused again, then fell silent once more, leaving everyone's hearts still heavy.
Is that possible?
As Shen Heng spoke, his tone remained calm, but his expression grew increasingly resolute.
"We're already in the first group; there are no others behind us!"
"In other words, if we don't do it, then nobody else will."
"And the Ruins Realm is not dead either."
"They have also been trying every possible way to speed up the intrusion process."
"This can be seen from the earliest overlap, to the subsequent acceleration, and now to the Erosion Zone."
"In other words, if we do nothing, the Ruins Realm might even completely invade our world within the next two to three years."
"What will we do then?"
After speaking, Shen Heng finally stopped.
However, everyone opened their mouths, but no one could continue the conversation.
Shen Heng didn't pay any attention. He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and said:
"This is the best opportunity we have right now!"
"If we do nothing now, we can only watch as the Ruins Realm continue to invade until large numbers of Calamity Beast appear on Blue Star."
"I don't want to... wait until the Calamity Beast are biting ordinary people before I start thinking about this..."
Why was there no action this time?
