Chapter 473: Chapter 277: Help an Old Friend
Shen Shi had roughly understood the situation.
Although these people in front of him were special weapons extensively used by the Thousand Alliance and had played a significant role on the battlefield, their manufacturing was still a secret to the Mude System due to the high confidentiality of the Thousand Alliance.
However, after quickly pondering in his mind, Shen Shi couldn’t help but shake his head internally.
This secret seems to be very important, but in reality, it doesn’t have much use.
As Icarus mentioned in front of him, all these people had already become users of the "spores" in the rear. So even if they knew the function of the Primordial Energy Spores, unless they could attack the rear of the Thousand Alliance, they wouldn’t be able to stop the production of the Primordial Energy Spores.
However, if some samples could be obtained, perhaps some valuable things could be traded from within the Mude System.
At this thought, Shen Shi simply extended his hand, and in the next moment, a mass resembling black mist appeared in his hand.
Icarus’s heart was even more shocked.
Because this mass of Primordial Energy Spores was extracted from his Consciousness World, and he was completely unaware!
This is no longer something that can be described as a Strong Person. The opponent’s Primordial Energy Mastery, even Primordial Energy Technology, has already exceeded his understanding!
"I can tell you, we do not belong to the Mude System." After pondering for a moment, Shen Shi directly spoke, "Of course, we do not belong to the Thousand Alliance either. We are a third party, obtaining sufficient profit is our reason for being here."
Shen Shi is not worried that this information will be spread out, because he never intended to hide it.
It is also impossible to hide.
Although they can disguise themselves as the Mude System, after all, many of their warships come from the Mude System, but in this way, it would be inconvenient to trade, and merely plundering on the battlefield would eventually make it difficult to obtain truly important things.
By this moment, Icarus was not too surprised by this point, and even slightly relieved about his own situation, because if he falls into the hands of the Mude System, it’s likely they would have no way to survive at all.
"How do you want to deal with us?" Icarus asked.
"I need more information, maybe you can defect to us." Shen Shi reached out and crushed the black mist in his hand directly, "Although the constraints in your consciousness are exquisite and powerful, eliminating them is no difficult task for me—presumably, as cannon fodder, you hardly have any loyalty to the Thousand Alliance."
This was a spur-of-the-moment idea, but it was no big deal either.
In fact, through this contact, Shen Shi has further realized his current Primordial Energy strength.
After all, the advantage over the Empress before has hardly explained much, but now, the restrictions that the Mude System couldn’t break through during such a prolonged war were easily overcome by him.
Perhaps in terms of hard power, he could not compare with those truly top Strong Persons, but in terms of soft power, he has surpassed many.
To draw a comparison.
Shen Shi now is akin to a Cultivator in the High Martial World, perhaps his realm cannot match those big shots of Broken Void, but he is unbeatable because he practices cultivation, and in terms of complexity, he essentially crushes.
Since he has clarified his advantages, he should make good use of them. Shen Shi believes there will be a large number of people like Icarus in front of him who will make the right choice in the face of profit.
In fact, Icarus and his companions were indeed slightly happy at this moment.
They all come from weak civilizations within the Thousand Alliance, although forced to step onto the battlefield, the maximum profit they seek is merely out of necessity. On one hand, to avoid the defeat of the Thousand Alliance and fall into the Mude System as mere batteries, on the other, to prevent their own civilization from suffering too much damage and heading towards decline or even extinction in this war.
And right now, isn’t it an opportunity to gain profit?
"If you can really solve our constraints, may I ask, can it continue to exist but not function?" Icarus rapidly pondered in his mind, finally suddenly raised this question.
This made Shen Shi narrow his eyes slightly.
"You want to go back and be our undercover agent?" He had already seen through the other’s intentions.
"Yes, if we go back, we can attain the greatest profit for you, and for us," said Icarus, "On one hand, our civilizations are still under the control of the Thousand Alliance, once we disappear, our civilizations will suffer more severe persecution, on the other hand, we are just cannon fodder in the Thousand Alliance, barely knowing any crucial information, but we can contact other cannon fodder. If you are willing to support, maybe we can rapidly grow."
This is the thinking ability of a Master of Primordial Energy, exceeding the cognitive capacity of quantum computers, allowing them to always find the trail of maximum profit from seemingly chaotic situations.
At this moment, Icarus is not only thinking about survival.
He also thinks about achieving greater profit.
Indeed, being an undercover agent carries risk, but isn’t being captured without risk? Continuing like this, both they and their civilization behind them would be completely exhausted by this war, and the result wouldn’t be much better than being an undercover agent.
At least.
As an undercover agent, there is a greater possibility to send out the Fire and ensure the Fire survives.
