Chapter 841: The Traitor
Chapter 841: The Traitor
In the massive base, Plante was engaged in a video chat with Emperor Manina XIII and Rance.
Seeing the humans from Earth leave their ship, Rance exclaimed, "Lord Plante, your prediction was spot on! The Earthlings really did leave their ship!"
Manina, equally astonished, added, "They actually left the ship! Lord Plante, how did you know they would fall for the trap?"
"This is nothing," Plante dismissed with a shake of his head. "I knew the Earthlings would make this decision. It seems I was right."
Before coming to the Alps Spring, Plante had already guessed that Su Yu would make this choice. As for the giant spring he had previously guarded, he hadn't set any traps there. He had bet that the Earthlings wouldn't go to that spring, and he had bet correctly.
"Since the Earthlings have arrived, let's proceed with the original plan," Plante said into the communication screen before ending the call.
...
In the sky, the vanguard of the Earth forces, including Chancellor Cao and Su Yu, had arrived.
Plante, piloting his red mech, flew up to be level with Chancellor Cao, grinning from a distance. "Lord Cao, it's been a while! How have you been?"
Chancellor Cao and the few cultivators beside him were taken aback. Plante had spoken in Earth's language, using pure Mandarin without any mechanical assistance. It seemed that Plante, their enemy, was no longer as arrogant as before and had started learning Earth's language to understand them better. This was not a good sign.
"Lord Plante, it's been a long time," Chancellor Cao replied, bowing and speaking in perfect Mandarin. "I'm here to lead our Earth cultivators in reclaiming this giant spring. These 24 giant springs belong to Earth, and you have occupied them for far too... long!"
Chancellor Cao spoke each word deliberately, his aura reaching its peak. With the amplification from his sword, a vast and overwhelming presence radiated from him, causing the Skrull soldiers in the base to feel their hearts constrict.
"No, no, you're mistaken," Plante waved his hand, unperturbed by Chancellor Cao's aura. "The law of the jungle is a universal rule. Civilizations without potential are inevitably eliminated by those with potential. This is the rule set by the Sanger civilization!
Since we are strong and Earth is weak, why shouldn't these springs belong to us? To be honest, if not for the rules, our fleet would have wiped out Earth half a year ago!"
"But you didn't, did you?" Chancellor Cao's lips curled into a smirk as he retorted, "Not only that, out of the 3,732 springs on Earth, you've lost one after another, and now only 19 remain. After tonight, it will be 17. What happened to the law of the jungle? You can't even hold onto a few springs? Who is the 'weak meat' here, us or you?"
Chancellor Cao's words were not just empty talk. First, they were meant to assert dominance, and second, to buy time.
While he was speaking, 262 sixth-stage Earth cultivators had completed their formation, and a magnificent "Seven-Star Diagram" appeared behind him.
Coincidentally, Plante was also buying time.
Looking at the 262 cultivators and players who had formed their array, a knowing smile spread across his lips.
"Brandon, come out!" Plante shouted at the sixth-stage Earth cultivators.
Without waiting for the Blue Star cultivators to react, Plankt activated the spatial teleportation module on his mech, instantly transporting one of the Sixth Rank cultivators to his side.
The transported Blue Star human was named Brandon, the strongest player from the North American continent.
Even when controlling Gordon, the Skrull Expeditionary Force had already brought him into their fold, making him their most loyal informant.
Most of the information the Skrulls had about the "Evolution" game came from him.
During Gordon's rebellion, Brandon was not purged because he was not a member of the United Government.
Moreover, he and players from other continents lived in the Imperial Capital of Huaxia, not in the Pacific Federation, so the purges did not reach him.
Brandon had always hidden his true identity until he received word that Su Yu and Chancellor Cao were preparing to lead all the cultivators to attack the Alpine Spring. Only then did he feel compelled to send a message.
Plankt was well aware that after this battle, Brandon would likely be discovered by the Blue Star humans.
Since this "pawn" was likely to be destroyed, he decided to recover this "pawn" first.
...
Once teleported to Plankt's side, Brandon immediately knelt down with fervent devotion. "Lord Plankt, I finally have the honor of meeting you!"
"Brandon, you have done well!" Plankt smiled and placed his hand on Brandon's forehead.
A surge of psychic energy flowed into his body, causing Brandon to swell. His already muscular build, typical of a Warrior class, grew even more pronounced. Pure white psychic energy enveloped him in layers, and his aura grew stronger under its influence!
After receiving Plankt's psychic infusion, Brandon's strength, originally at the mid-Sixth Rank, rapidly increased! In just a few seconds, his strength surged from mid-Sixth Rank to peak-Sixth Rank and was even beginning to break through the Seventh Rank barrier!
Seeing this, the Blue Star cultivators were enraged.
A few North American cultivators who were close to Brandon started cursing, "Brandon, you traitor! You've betrayed humanity!"
"Never would I have thought, never would I have thought, Brandon, you're a traitor! Fuxk..."
As the North American cultivators were using "f" words to insult Brandon's family, Su Yu and Chancellor Cao began to communicate telepathically. "It looks like this Brandon is the traitor who just informed on us."
Chancellor Cao replied, "I see... But once we return, we need to screen all the other cultivators to ensure there are no more traitors."
"Agreed," Su Yu nodded.
...
Plankt paid no attention to the angry shouts of the Blue Star cultivators.
After infusing Brandon with psychic energy, he addressed all the Blue Star cultivators, "Not only Brandon, but any of you who wish to pledge allegiance to us Skrulls, we welcome you!
You should understand the vast gap between Skrull civilization and Blue Star civilization. You cannot win against us. Surrender now and abandon your resistance, and we might spare your lives.
All Blue Star humans, listen to me—Skrulls will not exterminate all of you. We will only eliminate those who oppose us.
Once we Skrulls occupy Blue Star, we will not massacre civilians. We will leave room for ordinary humans to survive. We will only eliminate those who refuse to submit, and I, Plankt, swear to this!"
