Inside the room, Fulaite's angry voice echoed, and the high-ranking Aegis Bureau standing before him all lowered their heads, their eyes flashing with shame.

Just then, news came back from the front lines that Lancelot had captured Sky Thunder Strike Darian alive and revealed his True God Tier Six combat strength.

The Aegis Bureau in the room, including Fulaite, all had their eyes shining with excitement.

The Allied Chief of Staff reacted the fastest, immediately recognizing the impact of this change on the current battle situation. He said in a deep voice, "A peak- Middle God who can move freely, combined with the Golden Divine Kingdom, is enough to become the backbone of the Allied Forces. If we also have the support of our Alpha Civilization, it will definitely greatly increase the unity of the Allied Forces."

After the chief of staff said that, the other high-ranking Aegis Bureau also realized what was going on and started whispering among themselves.

"The reason Eight Gods' Realm is so arrogant is simply because they come from the same faction, work together seamlessly, and are united as one. If the allied forces could also do that, even if they couldn't turn the tide of the war, they could probably hold out for a long time, right?"

"That's true. It's best to avoid direct wars between civilizations, as that would destabilize the internal political situation of each civilization."

"I agree to help the Golden Divine Kingdom become the leader of the coalition. After all, the Golden Divine Kingdom is located far from the territory of our Alpha Civilization. Even if the war ends and they enter the Civilization Council to develop and expand, they are unlikely to affect us. Who knows, we might even have another reliable ally to deal with the Crimson Moon Civilization."

The subordinates were buzzing with discussion, and Nick Fulaite, the Aegis Bureau., leaning back in his chair, also listened intently, gradually making a decision.

However, before announcing his decision, he wanted to seek the opinions of others.

His gaze shifted, sweeping over his subordinates standing below, before finally settling on the Allied Chief of Staff.

"Duo Luo, tell me your thoughts? Do you also want the Golden Divine Kingdom to become the leader of the allied forces?"

Upon hearing this, the chief of staff paused for a moment, then frowned in thought. After a brief pause, he nodded and said, "From my observation, both leaders of the Golden Divine Kingdom are exceptionally promising. Befriending them would be entirely beneficial to our Alpha Civilization. Moreover, we are currently in the midst of a proxy war. Since the Golden Divine Kingdom has made great contributions and demonstrated leadership qualities, they should be given opportunities and rewards. Otherwise, it will be difficult to gain the support of the people."

Upon hearing this, Fulaite nodded slightly, a smile playing on his lips. "Very good, Duo Luo has a far-sighted view. Indeed, the Golden Divine Kingdom should be supported. However, there are still some obstacles that are difficult to overcome at the moment."

"Obstacles?" The chief of staff was taken aback. After thinking for a moment, he tentatively asked, "You mean, other armed groups are likely to object?"

"Well, it's not so much opposition as opposition. They certainly wouldn't dare to do it openly, but it's hard to say what they'll do behind the scenes. They'll inevitably put up a show of resistance, both soft and hard. Ultimately, the Golden Divine Kingdom's foundation is too shallow, its development time is too short, it's not familiar with other organizations and has no connections, and the war hasn't been going on for very long. It's not good enough to become the leader of the allied forces," Fulaite sighed.

"Yes, the Golden Divine Kingdom's prestige is insufficient." The chief of staff also realized the Golden Divine Kingdom's shortcomings at this time. As a newly emerging power, its connections and prestige are fatal flaws, and these generally require a long period of time to cultivate.

Or perhaps they possess absolutely invincible strength, capable of suppressing all who dare to oppose them in one fell swoop. But unfortunately, the Golden Divine Kingdom cannot meet either of these requirements.

While True God Tier Six is indeed powerful, he still falls into the category of Middle God. A few more Middle God could contend with him, but he wouldn't be enough to subdue other armed organizations.

Even ordinary Upper God are somewhat lacking. If one wants to command the armed organizations of an entire universe group by force without accumulating prestige, and make no one dare to dissent, then the True God Tier Eight is basically enough.

"Then, let's find a way to help the Golden Divine Kingdom enhance its prestige. On the one hand, we can secretly increase our resource support for the Golden Divine Kingdom, and on the other hand, we can send hidden experts from our civilization to join the Golden Divine Kingdom and help it grow stronger. What do you think?" Fulaite said, looking around.

The other subordinates, including the chief of staff, dared not object and nodded hastily.

Fulaite smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand, and said, "Very good. In that case, you may all leave. I will assign you the tasks you need to perform later, so remember to check them."

"Yes!"

The Aegis Bureau left in an orderly fashion.

Suddenly, the chief of staff's expression changed slightly, and he stopped in his tracks.

"Hmm? Duo Luo, is there anything else?" Fulaite asked.

The others who hadn't gone out also looked over.

"Reporting to the Chief of Staff, it's Lancelot. He just contacted me and said he has something important to discuss with you," the Chief of Staff replied.

"Oh? You're looking for me?" Fulaite's eyes narrowed slightly, then he dismissed the others, leaving only Chief of Staff Duo Luo in the office.

"Alright, they've all left. Turn on the projector now."

"Yes."

The chief of staff bowed slightly, then projected a 3D image.

A dashing young man dressed in a magnificent golden battle suit appeared before him; it was Lancelot.

"Lord Fulaite," Lancelot nodded in acknowledgment.

In terms of status, a Middle God is higher than Aegis Bureau. If Lancelot were a member of the Alpha Civilization, Fulaite would even have to bow respectfully to him.

However, the two parties are not subordinate to each other but collaborators, so the distinction between their status is not so clear-cut; a nod is sufficient.

After returning the greeting, Fulaite smiled and looked at Lancelot, praising, "Your talent is truly astounding. May I ask what business Your Holy Light has with me this time?"

He did not tell Lancelot about the decision to support the Golden Divine Kingdom that had just been discussed at the meeting.

Firstly, this decision requires the approval of the head of state and the approval of the Council of Elders.

Secondly, things that are too easily obtained are not cherished, and even if you want to achieve your goal, the process in between is also very important.

Lancelot, of course, had no idea what the conversation at the Aegis Bureau. internal meeting was about. Although he could spy on others through Quantum Mark, even the Upper God couldn't detect it.

True strength lies in knowing what to do and what not to do. While he may use any means necessary to deal with enemies, Lancelot still maintains a strong moral compass when dealing with allies.

"I've come here for only one purpose," Lancelot said.

"Oh? I'm all ears."

"Rescue the captured True God and Demigod."

Lancelot's words were like a bomb, exploding in Fulaite's ears, making his head buzz and almost unable to believe his ears.

After a long silence, Fulaite finally managed to calm down, his hands clasped tightly together, his eyes trembling slightly, and he asked, "Does Your Excellency the Holy Light know the location of those powerful figures being imprisoned? Or the identity of the mastermind behind it all?"
