"Actually, I suggest we can also bring over another team from China. That way, they can also become our help, and our chances of winning will be even greater. I've heard that there are many powerful psychics on China's side. If they lend a hand, our chances will be even higher," Aku Si said.
Tom hesitated for a moment and said, "I've heard that in ancient China, there was a very cunning strategy where some people would pretend to surrender to an organization and then betray them at a crucial moment. I need to guard against this situation. What if these Chinese people backstab us? After all, they all come from the same place and have so-called local sentiments."
Countries around the world were actually studying Chinese military strategy. Chinese military strategy seemed so dazzling and brilliant that many classic cases from Romance of the Three Kingdoms were still discussed. Even though this was fictionalized in a novel, it was still discussed, which was enough to show that Chinese military strategy was excellent.
And in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the stratagem of feigned surrender had appeared. Tom knew this, which was why he dared not take the risk, as he worried that there might be flaws on his side.
Aku Si, however, said, "Mr. Tom, there are some things I must tell you clearly. Although there are things like feigned surrenders in China, you also need to understand that no one can resist the temptation of power. Therefore, in this situation, I heard that He Qiu An wants to compete for the position of leader, so he will definitely fight Shen Feng to the death and will not feign surrender as you thought!"
"If what you say is true, then we really have a chance to win over this group. I will send out messages to contact them next, and everyone will gather to discuss a solution!" Tom said.
The simplest way to get people from different aspects and fields to cooperate is to give them a common enemy. With pressure and motivation, these people will eventually work towards the same goal to fight this enemy.
Shen Feng was now this enemy, and everyone did not want their hard work to be snatched away by Shen Feng, who had been watching for a long time. Therefore, they had to find a way to resist.
Thus, the North American fleet sent out contact messages, and fleets from various places also united. They all gathered in a certain sea area. To prevent this sea area from freezing, the fleets here used fuel every day to heat water and then discharged it into the sea. This way, the temperature of the surrounding seawater would rise, and the seawater would not freeze. Although the surroundings would not freeze, this method consumed a lot of energy.
"As long as we all unite, we represent the justice of humanity, and justice is invincible. I believe we will eventually have a beautiful ending!" Andorf was also very happy because he saw the countless fleets gathered here. There were more than a hundred ships in total.
With so many fleets and so many psychics on board, their gathering together was like humanity's last hope, and their decisions would directly affect humanity's future.
Ships also appeared from the Island Nation, led by Saya Kasumi. Shen Bowen was also on board. He was now over ten years old. Seeing countless psychics gathered here, all of whom were very powerful, and his father somewhere in the sky.
"Does Father have a way to snatch the meteorite?" Shen Bowen had this worry in his heart.
Although the psychics from various factions had gathered together to discuss their next move, their numbers were large, exceeding 400 people. Facing Shen Feng's small group in the sky, they had a huge advantage. As long as they maintained a certain scale in the battle with the sea beasts, even if Shen Feng appeared, he might not be able to snatch the meteorite.
"Everyone is very happy now, and so am I, because once everyone unites, they are invincible. No one will doubt this. But shouldn't our most important task now be to decide how to deal with the meteorite after we win? If we defeat Shen Feng, and he is willing to join us, should we accept him? And how should the meteorite be divided from now on?" Someone raised this thorny issue at this time.
Since the meteorite was a very important item, its handling was very serious. If it could not be divided equally, then their own side would not be able to unite.
And Tom's answer to this question was very simple. He just said a sentence, "Regarding this issue, we now have an idea, which is to establish a dedicated organization to research meteorites. In this organization, all information will be shared, so that all of humanity can enjoy the benefits brought by the meteorite!"
"What about Shen Feng? It is very likely that we will not be able to completely defeat Shen Feng. If we win, and Shen Feng prepares to join us, should we allow Shen Feng to join?" Then someone raised this new question.
Tom said, "It depends. If Shen Feng's strength still exists, let him join our research group. But if his strength is greatly reduced, we don't need to worry about his combat power, and we can directly refuse his request."
Everyone was very satisfied with this answer. With such a distribution of benefits, there were indeed no major problems. Everyone could obtain the benefits brought by the meteorite, and adjustments could be made according to the changes in the situation. Wasn't that good?
So, when this news spread, countless people said on the spot, "With such good conditions, anyone who doesn't join is a complete fool. The masses are justice, and Shen Feng is destined to fail!"
More and more people entered the sea area where the joint fleets were located. People now firmly believed one thing: their side could achieve maximum benefits.
There is a strange phenomenon in the world, which is that no matter where in history, it is recorded that justice defeated evil. This has never changed from ancient times to the present. In essence, this is because the victors always like to portray themselves as the righteous side.
And from another perspective, it is not like that. To put it bluntly, the winning side always has more people, and in this world, there is a saying that quantity is justice, and countless people are pursuing this conclusion.
At this time, someone also brought a bombshell: "I have discovered Shen Feng's ground psychics. She has been constantly transmitting information to Shen Feng, so Shen Feng knows everything about our actions!"
The person who brought this news was none other than Atlas from South America, who was called the Poison Master by others. He was never welcomed by others, mainly because what he did was not something humans could do. On the one hand, he used humans for experiments, and on the other hand, he controlled various viruses. With such a dangerous person appearing in human society, he could easily destroy a city with a simple move.
Therefore, people kept a respectful distance from such a dangerous figure.
But the news brought by the Poison Master was too important, so many people paid attention.
"Is the source of your information reliable? Can you guarantee that this is true?" Andorf asked impatiently.
Atlas said, "I can guarantee that the source of my information is absolutely reliable because I have captured an important informant, so no matter what, what he says is reliable. And I want to join your plan with this news. This should be fine, right?"
Atlas was also very clear that it was difficult for him to be accepted by others now, because he had used humans as experimental subjects, and even captured psychics for experiments. Everyone was very wary of him. But now, with just one important piece of news, he could definitely gain recognition.
Everyone discussed it for a while. They felt that every move they made was under Shen Feng's control, which was a very unbearable situation. No matter what actions they took, they would be spread out. Therefore, if they were to treat Shen Feng as their imaginary enemy, they must have corresponding means, preferably by finding a way to cripple Shen Feng's eyes at sea. This way, they would have room to operate in the dark.
However, many people were still worried about one thing: letting the dangerous figure Atlas appear in their ranks. If something went wrong, it would be bad. It was estimated that no one on their side could withstand the attack of viruses.
At the end of the meeting, everyone finally reached a conclusion: their side could accept Atlas, but Atlas could not use his abilities randomly. If he violated this agreement, they could directly kill him in the end.
Atlas agreed after hearing this request and said, "No problem, my subordinates and these new humans can also accept this request!"
When others heard the term "new humans," they were immediately confused. Humans are humans, so where did this term "new humans" come from?
Then, a curious person looked at Atlas's subordinates and found that this group of people were all working on the ship. They looked no different from humans. Their physique was much stronger than ordinary people, and their heads were also a circle larger. Other than that, there were no other abnormalities.
"Can this be called new humans? How ridiculous!" someone sneered.
These people in front of them were just stronger humans, and they weren't even psychics. These guys shouldn't be called new humans at all.
But some people also noticed something different at this time. The people on the ship were all silent and doing their jobs. Their division of labor was extremely clear, and there was no laziness. In their eyes, they seemed to have lost their usual spirit, and were just mechanically doing their jobs, without making any mistakes because of being watched by others.
"In my opinion, these are not so-called new humans, they are just a group of machines!" someone concluded.
Only well-trained people would behave like this, doing various precise tasks without any mistakes. Only machines could achieve this.
"Don't think they are only good at fighting just because they are strong and robust. In fact, their intelligence is higher than all of you, and they only obey my orders!" Atlas said proudly.
Before this, he had been accelerating human evolution. After so many years, his plan had progressed significantly, because he had created a large number of humans with enhanced bodies, and these people were not unintelligent. They could easily understand all kinds of knowledge.
