When the scene was quiet for a while, the first person to stand up was a city lord from the neutral faction.
"I would like to ask the elders what our voting options are." the city lord asked.
Elder Fan quickly gave his answer: "Our voting options are simple. The first is to fight. Once we choose to fight, from today onwards, every city and every human on Tanm will enter a war preparation phase, awaiting the Alliance's command to launch a collective assault on the surface."
"The second is defense. Abandon at least half of the more mediocre cities and consolidate the fighting forces in a few large cities. Utilize the advantageous terrain of the underground cities for defense. At the same time, everyone except those fighting should begin building deeper underground cities."
"So far, these are the two options, but they are just rough ideas. Once the options are confirmed, there will be more plans to fill in."
After getting a satisfactory answer, the city lord sat down.
Many people present fell into deep thought.
Then another conservative city lord stood up and said, "Twenty years ago, the Blue Emperor scared off the Demon Emperor and eventually signed the 'Peak Treaty' with us. So, is there a possibility for us to make peace with the two tribes and sign another treaty?"
"Heh." A hot-tempered radical city lord stood up and interrupted the city lord with disdain.
"As for your playful game, Cang Huang was at his peak back then, ultimately defeating the Demon Emperor. He suffered from a number of underlying illnesses, and the recovery abilities of radioactive creatures are obvious to all. The Demon Emperor must have already recovered to his peak state long ago."
"Now there's another 'corpse soul'. No matter how strong Cang Huang is, he can't possibly deal with two SSS-level masters. What can you use to sign the agreement?"
"Besides, don't you think about it? They just broke the agreement. So how can an agreement be useful? Idiot."
After the radical city lord's words, the conservative city lord turned pale and was unable to refute at all.
"Ahem, debate is one thing, but personal attacks are another." Elder Li spoke up to stop the conversation, but looking at the corners of his mouth that turned up, it looked like he was mocking someone.
Elder Bai standing next to him glared at the city lord with disappointment, saying, "Damn it, how can there be such an idiot!"
However, the conversation between the two completely ignited the debate session of the meeting.
Radicals and conservatives began a heated discussion on the two options.
As soon as the radical city lord stood up to express his opinion, someone from the conservative faction immediately refuted and ridiculed him.
As soon as the conservative city lord put forward his countermeasures, the radicals responded with a combination of rhetoric, which made the conservative city lord blush.
In short, the situation became more and more chaotic. The dialogue between the two sides escalated from discussing countermeasures at the beginning to scolding each other, and finally evolved into a "family defense war."
Large amounts of saliva were flying all over the conference table, forcing Lin Ziluo to take out his mask to cover his face.
Several city lords standing by were stunned.
Brother, you even have a mask. Are you so fully prepared to attend the "City Lord Conference"?
However, Lin Ziluo had no intention of paying attention to them.
He observed the situation on the field with a cold eye, feeling a little uneasy.
Although the radicals appear to have the upper hand due to their large numbers, it is obvious that the ideas of the neutral city lords are moving closer to the conservatives.
Two neutral city lords had even stood up to speak for the conservatives.
Obviously, the information about the strength comparison between the three parties announced by Elder Bai earlier played a role.
There is such a gap between the two sides just in top combat power.
This made many neutral people lose confidence in resistance and tend to be conservative.
There was even a radical city lord whose face became hesitant, and perhaps his thoughts would change and he would switch to the conservative camp.
We can't wait like this any longer!
Lin Ziluo made up his mind and began to look for opportunities carefully.
When he looked around, he happened to see Park Deshuang sitting in his seat with his nose in the air and an arrogant look on his face.
After all, people of this strength are still alert.
Noticing someone staring at him, Park Deshuang immediately stared back and happened to see Lin Ziluo wearing a mask.
When Lin Ziluo was discovered, he didn't care at all. Instead, his eyes revealed a provocative look.
How can this be!
Park Deshuang immediately became unhappy.
Thinking back to when Lin Ziluo had previously called him a cleaner, Pu Deshuang's brain began to work rapidly, and he soon came up with a "clever plan" that would disgust Lin Ziluo.
Looking at the people who were still arguing, Park Deshuang stood up on his own initiative, cleared his throat, and made a gesture as if he was going to speak.
However, the argument was so intense that no one paid any attention to him.
Park Deshuang was a little embarrassed, but he quickly adjusted himself and started clapping his hands.
Suddenly, a slap sounded during the quarrel, which really attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone stopped arguing and wanted to see which idiot had slapped someone.
Pu De was immediately delighted to see that everyone's attention was drawn to him. He quickly assumed the posture of a leader and said, "Everyone, let's not discuss the issue of attack or defense for now. Whether it's attacking or defending, we need to have sufficient strength."
There is nothing wrong with this statement logically.
But this is complete nonsense, who doesn’t know this?
Many people showed impatience in their eyes.
Park Deshuang then began to talk about his brilliant plan: "I wonder if anyone has heard the rumor recently that the Lord of Tianxing City, Li Haobo, has mastered a secret technique called 'Elemental Cultivation'."
"This secret technique can quickly enhance our strength and will be of great help in the situation we face."
"However, City Lord Li showed no selflessness and took the opportunity to demand exorbitant fees that even many city lords couldn't afford. Otherwise, he wouldn't teach at all. This move is completely detrimental to the development of our species."
"So I propose that City Lord Li make this method of cultivation available to the public for free, so that everyone on the entire Tanm Star will be qualified and able to learn it in order to face the impending crisis." After saying this, Park Deshuang put on a righteous attitude.
He was secretly delighted.
I am such a genius!
This approach directly stands on the moral high ground. Let's see how you react!
Park Deshuang's words indeed attracted a lot of attention.
Many of them agreed with this view in their hearts.
After all, some people who can't afford the price but are greedy will naturally become evil-minded when they hear that they can get it for free.
For a moment, almost everyone in the audience focused their eyes on Lin Ziluo.
