cooperate?
Yehu asked.
The arrogant Hades, no, the arrogant Clear Harbor Sanctuary will cooperate with the Western Suburbs Alliance?
He doesn't think that the ordinary supplies that the alliance is currently trading can make Hades lower his profile to discuss cooperation.
Moreover, even if you really get the 30% of the supplies, you may not be able to bring much help to this behemoth.
What the city really needs urgently now is force.
It is a new type of weapon that can replace guns and cannons to deal with dwarves who may launch a second attack at any time.
If they want to cooperate, the only way is for Sumo to hand over the things that just exploded to Qinggang Shelter.
But is it possible?
"Mr. Tiger Hunter, with all due respect, didn't anyone in your shelter tell you
In fact, your talent as a commander is far better than that of a manager?"
Kevin smashed his mouth and gave some sincere suggestions.
But what surprised him was that Yehu nodded around Qi Qi and replied honestly:
"Hey, how do you know? Many people say that."
"But that was ten years ago. The people who said that about me now have grass several meters high on their graves!"
hiss.
This guy is really a fool.
Kevin was stunned for a moment, but when he saw the teasing smile on Yehu's face, he realized that the bald man was not that stupid.
It is useless for anyone to say whether you are suitable to be a manager or not. The development of the past ten years has proven everything.
Just as Hades said, Pingtan Sanctuary did not decline and disappear under his leadership. Instead, it miraculously escaped from the siege and got to where it is today.
Of course, there must be reasons for this due to the location of Pingtandi, as well as the chaotic division of interests in the city over the past few years.
But no matter what, the results are here.
Except for Yehu himself who said he was not suitable as a manager, no one else was qualified.
Unless that person is
"I see it too, when managers stay in shelters and sit at their desks."
"It's such a waste of your talent!"
Su Mo shook his head with a dumbfounded look on his face, and continued to whisper softly under Liehu's surprised gaze:
"I mean what if, what if I let you choose?"
"What would you choose between staying in the Pingtan shelter and leading the residents to develop, or taking tens of thousands of people out to fight?"
"Going out to fight?"
Liehu's smile paused, then he thought about it and repeated the sentence again, then snorted in a muffled voice.
As expected, there is no way to play with such smart people.
Who is a serious manager who would consider taking tens of thousands of people out to fight? That is obviously the responsibility of the commander.
What managers need to be more responsible for is the economic development of shelters, population allocation and other livelihood issues.
As long as he will consider this proposal, it already explains something.
It's a trap, right?
"Let's go, I don't know how to cooperate. After all, this guy is an antique from more than a hundred years ago."
"But I think he will definitely not remain silent, and the most important thing is"
Somo stretched out a finger and shook it gently.
If the information obtained from Katarina is correct, Hades will only have one month of activity at most.
Unless he is willing to accept the increased risk and extend his activities to continue as a manager.
Otherwise, a decent decision must be made within this month.
Based on what I have learned so far, and my close contact with Hades today.
Sumo was more inclined to think that this smart guy would not choose to die now.
Although the power of the Western Suburbs Alliance is strong, there is still a big gap between them and Qinggang, and they will not be able to catch up in a short time.
In this case, he stayed and could only do some scrap work to wait and see what happened.
It is better to continue sleeping and wake up when a better opportunity comes.
But what Sumo couldn't guess was.
Hades does intend to continue sleeping.
But the real reason is not what he thought of, but another "reason" that cannot be said.
At this moment, the circular conference room was empty.
With an anxious look on his face, Tang En knocked on the door and entered, only to see Hades still sitting in a daze.
He just stared at where Somo was sitting before, in the direction of the western suburbs.
Hades was still mumbling to himself.
It can be seen that he really cares about the "rules of the wasteland".
And this is the biggest reason why smart people often get trapped in a corner by themselves.
over thinking!
"Master Hades, we have sent engineers to conduct a preliminary inspection of the missing wall. It is estimated that the success rate of complete repair is very high. There is at least an 80% chance that it can be repaired exactly as before, and the other 20% is after the repair is completed.
The stress structure of the wall will be damaged to some extent, but it will not affect daily use."
"We tested the explosion point and reviewed the video during this period. We did not find out how the other party planted or dropped the bomb, and no radiation was detected."
"At the scene, the only explosion residue we found was this."
Pulling out a fragment from a baby's fist from the file bag, Tang En gently placed the fragment in front of Hades.
It looks like a piece of stone that has been polished and smoothed by hand.
There are dense patterns remaining on it, which not only looks mysterious but also has a strong special beauty.
"Did this thing blow up our wall?"
Hades finally came to his senses, picked up the fragment and took a deep look, his face full of solemnity.
"I have no idea."
A trace of annoyance appeared on Tang En's face.
"Our engineers have not detected any anomalies in this fast fragment. Just like some of the special substances we have found in this wasteland, they are so mysterious that we have not found the way to the mysterious other side yet."
"Sorry, I really don't know." Tang En glanced at the location in the west suburbs blankly, and sighed: "I didn't expect that this small west suburbs alliance still has such a big killer in its hands. Maybe
It has something to do with that Yuan Sanctuary. They are the natives of this wasteland world and know too much information that we don’t know!”
"The natives of the wasteland world."
Hades was not angry, but repeated this sentence again.
Suddenly, his dull and dull eyes lit up, as if he had realized something.
"What do you mean, Sumo, he knows a lot of information that we don't know?"
"For sure, Master Hades, I can be 100% sure that as long as we can catch him, we can definitely interrogate a lot of information, including the sudden appearance of metal aging. I have sent people to collect information from Pingtan and Giant City.
changes, they were preparing other weapons long before metal aging appeared, and they definitely knew this information!"
Seeing Hades' eyes getting brighter and brighter, Tang En slapped his mouth and continued.
"Do you still remember the previous video? It was the video of our helicopter being robbed by two radioactive beasts. No, the video was taken away by two monsters. Now I very much suspect that Xijiao has secretly reached cooperation with these monsters. They are here
There are some secret activities going on secretly that we don’t know about!”
"If we don't take action, they will only become more and more arrogant and recruit other shelters in the city to join forces to resist our Sunny Harbor Shelter!"
Hades nodded.
He knew that what Tang En was saying now was not alarmist.
In fact, when he saw the video for the first time, he looked like he had seen a ghost.
Physics and weapons science are not his majors, but biology and energy are his strengths.
If he hadn't been kicked out of the college back then, with his talent and hard work, he would have at least started as a second-level professor.
If you are lucky, you may even have the opportunity to become a first-level professor, vice-dean, etc., and then step into the top echelon of Blue Star.
But that's exactly what happened. First, I saw in the video an inhuman creature that learned to fly a plane within a few minutes.
I also witnessed with my own eyes the dwarves who came to attack the city with special weapons.
Only then did he realize that the world had indeed changed. In the past, too much biological research in the academy only existed on paper, but now living examples could be found here.
It is reasonable to doubt whether this world also has a solution to the big problem of the dormant chamber not being able to wake up for a long time.
Or is there simply a way to extend human life?
After realizing this, Hades did not blame the reckless Edmund and Tang En for indulging him. He even praised the two people and affirmed their efforts and contributions during this period.
After all, plunder the population, plunder resources, form a team that can explore the outside world, and run ahead of other Blue Star forces.
Edmund's thoughts coincided with his current situation.
If it hadn't been for Somo's appearance, after this meeting, most of the city's resources would have been taken away by him with the threat of the Eternal Water God, and a large amount of extra money would have been spent on the exploration team.
Unfortunately.
No.
Hades completely rejected the previous idea.
At this moment, he felt that his previous thoughts were simply a crime. Was he really asleep?
Why should we set up an exploration team to go to farther places and take risks to explore information that may not be found?
Damn it, isn’t that the next door neighbor?
If he hadn't been preconceived by the old guys in the shelter, leading him to congenitally believe that the Western Suburbs Alliance was now the enemy of Qinggang Sanctuary, Tianyuan Sanctuary was also a minion of the enemy.
Otherwise, if we just go to Somo and it's over, why would we need so much trouble???
"Why don't we cooperate with Tianyuan Territory? Why don't we cooperate with Sumo?"
cooperate?
Tang En swallowed and his eyes were extremely weird.
Aren't you still criticizing the other party? Why did you suddenly mention cooperation again?
But then again, why are Qingang Sanctuary and Tianyuan Sanctuary on opposite sides?
Tang En did not express this doubt out loud, but kept it in his heart.
To be honest, he was quite confused. Living underground, he found many enemies for no apparent reason.
Forget about the shelters in the southern suburbs, there is absolutely no need to mess with the ones in the western suburbs. It's all Edmund, the idiot, who insists on going out to cause trouble and carry out his shabby plan.
"Master Hades, this is all Edmund, the result of the chaos he caused outside. In fact, we sent people to Tianyuan Sanctuary at the beginning, and Somo also came to our first meeting.
Your attitude is pretty good, right?"
Compared with today's aggressiveness, the silence back then must have been extremely kind.
"Since he is so kind, why don't we cooperate with him and force him to cooperate with people in the western suburbs?"
"Uh" Tang En was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak for a moment.
Good guy, I have obviously become the leader of the Western Suburbs Alliance.
It was not that he was looking for cooperation with those shelters at all, it was clearly those shelters that came to him.
"Go ahead. Since the other party didn't brazenly detonate the explosion in the new city or even underground today, but only warned us by blowing up a section of the lightning wall, it means that Somo does not want to start a war. There is still something between us.
To buffer the opportunity!”
"He's right, this is not Blue Star, but a wasteland. A wasteland should have wasteland rules!"
"Instead of fighting to the death and giving others an advantage, it is better to cooperate and win together."
Hades doesn't care about the frustration and difficulty of continuing to negotiate for cooperation, it's not him anyway.
He stood up, picked up the stone tablets on the table, and took Tang En's hand.
"Tang En, I know you want to be a manager. After all, your father is one of the outstanding managers in the shelter. You have inherited his genes, as well as the humility and wisdom of the Orientals. Qinggang Shelter is entrusted to you.
It is indeed something that reassures me.
But, you are still too young. As the deputy manager of the shelter, you have been suppressed by the old guys in the shelter recently but have no way to break the situation. You feel that every time this happens again in the future,
Do you need to wake me up to deal with it?"
When he said the word young, that face appeared in Hades' mind again.
Is Tang En young? He is indeed young.
He is only forty years old now. For a manager, with Blue Star's biotechnology, he still has at least fifty years of good life, and half of his life has not been completed.
But as for the Tianyuan manager, he is only thirty years old at most, or even younger.
After all, the future of this world belongs to young people. It's okay to count on the old guys in the shelter to maintain stability in peacetime. When encountering such a turbulent situation, bolder people are needed to take charge.
"I"
"This negotiation with Tianyuan Sanctuary is the time to witness your ability. If you can succeed before I wake up next time, then I can safely hand over the position of manager of this sanctuary to you. You know
Yes, I never tell lies!"
Hades showed an incomprehensible expression, indicating that he had made up his mind.
In fact, according to the normal development process, if he wakes up normally this time, Tang En will be appointed as the manager.
But now being woken up early, dealing with the mess in the shelter is just one of the small things.
He still plans to put more energy into studying this new world.
Especially for those captive dwarves, the way the key issues are forcibly blocked from their brainwaves is simply too abrupt.
If you can crack it, you might be able to get the manufacturing methods of the new weapons in their hands.
The shortage of weapons currently encountered in the shelter can be successfully solved!
"Okay."
Tang En nodded, feeling so confused that he could only accept the matter for the time being.
Now, we can only hope that the two sides have not completely broken up and see if they can relax.
If it can succeed, then the next cooperation will naturally advance slowly until the unpleasantness during this period is repaired.
But if the other party sternly refuses.
Thinking of the oriental face that had the same origin as his own, Tang En clenched the stone tablet in his hand and could only pray secretly in his heart.
