Chu Ge's face flushed red.

He is no longer a pawn who can be rounded and flattened by just anyone. Even when facing the commander of the crow army who is airborne from above, he is still a bit of a tyrant. After all, everyone is a brother unit, and we work together to complete the task For the task, he can obey the command of Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to become a pawn in the hands of Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting, especially a chess piece that knows nothing.

"Since you have already made up your mind, why do you want me to take the national teacher to visit and study?"

Chu Ge said emphatically, "My time is also very precious - there are still many tasks waiting for me to complete in the Extraordinary Association, and there are several commercials waiting for me to shoot in the Cultivator's Club, and there are still waiting for my signature If you don't agree with my contact plan, you can say it early, so you leave me alone and keep me in the dark, what's the matter?"

"Sorry, this matter has just been decided, and I didn't deliberately conceal your meaning in advance."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting didn't show the slightest apology on his face, he just said lightly, "Originally, I did plan to give you and the National Teacher another ten days and a half months, hoping to use more flexible means to deal with it more. polygraph analysis and psychological sketching.

"However, based on the news we just received, we probably don't have so much time."

Chu Ge was slightly taken aback: "I don't have so much time, what do you mean?"

"We just discovered the Rat Race entrenched in the ground, and more traces of the bug swarm."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting explained, "I don't know the specific situation yet, the underground situation is very chaotic, in short, the so-called 'rat civilization' still exists, but their old lair, 'Long Fang Kingdom' and 'Luminous City' are in jeopardy. It seems that after the underground insect swarm lost the command of the snake demon and the restrictions of the heavenly laboratory, it broke out unscrupulously.

"These mutated insects that just broke out don't have much wisdom and lack effective command, but they are extremely numerous, and the degree of mutation is quite terrifying. Although they are still in the state of headless flies for the time being, there is no sign of rushing out of the ground, but As their numbers grow exponentially, and the underground resources are quickly exhausted, rushing out of the ground is their only option.

"Our soldiers have already had some contact with the out-of-control bug swarm.

"Facing the facts, I have to admit that you are right—in the humid, narrow, dark, hypoxic, and structurally unstable underground world, the power of our steel torrents and bullet storms has all been reduced to the lowest point, and it is very It is difficult to curb the breeding trend of wild insects.

"Therefore, we need these wise mice,

Restore organization and combat power as soon as possible, and build a solid line of defense in front of humans, at least until we come up with a countermeasure against the mutant swarm and the most cutting-edge secret weapon arrives in Lingshan City.

"Now, you should understand that the Rat Clan civilization without a leader is bound to be impossible to stop the insect tide for too long, and the State Teacher is the backbone of the Rat Clan civilization. We don't have ten days and a half months to slowly test the loyalty of the State Teacher. The only way to do this is to use the simplest and most brutal method to know its position."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's words contained too much information.

Chu Ge was stunned for a while before digesting and absorbing.

"The Rat Clan Civilization... Found it?"

Chu Ge was both happy and worried, "So, have you found Bai Ye?"

"Now, everything is still unknown. Even if our investigators who went deep into the ground did catch a few talking mice, the other party is in a state of panic and cannot establish effective communication."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "When the time comes, you, the 'rat clan communication expert', will be indispensable to go out and explore the first-hand information in person, and cooperate with the national teacher to let the rat clan work for mankind."

"etc."

Chu Ge stared at Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting and said, "Do you believe in the loyalty of the National Teacher? Didn't you hear what it said? Its wisdom is far beyond your and my imagination, and it has seen through our 'double temptation' long ago! The reason why it bites the throat of that monster fiercely is because it knows that you have been spying on it coldly from a distance, is this considered true loyalty?"

"I don't need it to have 'true loyalty', and there has never been such a thing as 'true loyalty' in this world, especially between two different races."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "I just need it to be smart enough to understand its own situation and know how to choose a path that is most beneficial to itself. , although it is just a dog, it is more aware of current affairs than many human beings who are dizzy and passionate.

"Being aware of current affairs and being so useful, I have no reason not to spare its life and squeeze out its maximum use value."

"So, you're going to put it back underground?"

Chu Ge said, "Then, what method are you going to let it use to regain control of the Rats?"

"Do not use suspects, and employ people without suspicion, perhaps even more so for a loyal dog."

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting said, "In this regard, neither you nor I are experts, but it is. I think the method it used before is good. Only by making the Rats fear us like gods, can they survive. Afraid of death, he went on and on, and his heart was overwhelmed."

Chu Ge could only feel "buzzing" in his brain, and the blood vessels in his brain were like scorching dragons, baring their teeth and claws on the cerebral cortex.

"So, you are still going to use its old method - deceit and enslavement?" Chu Ge murmured.

"What is the problem?"

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting's voice was still as hard as a bullet and as sharp as a dagger, "Listen, you should know my experience and attitude. As far as my heart is concerned, I am extremely unwilling to fight with these snakes, rats, rats and ants. If there is any possibility, I am willing to use raging flames to burn them all to ashes, even if I have to use my own blood as fuel. No hesitation.

"To be honest, when I embarked on the journey to Lingshan City, my plan was the same, no matter the cost or whatever means, to wipe out all these beasts, no matter whether they are bugs or mice, cats or dogs.

"But you convinced me. You used the first-hand information you were born to die and your explanation of the bright future, which deeply moved me. For the first time in my life, I changed my mind and decided to make a small concession in front of you and accept your 'temporary use. Mausoleum instead of eradicating Mausoleum' opinion.

"Congratulations, Brother Chu, I'm not a person who is used to giving in. If my colleagues in the army hear that you have persuaded me, they will applaud you. So, why are you dissatisfied?"

Although the attitude of these words is tough, the content cannot be wrong. Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting is indeed not a person who is used to making concessions.

But Chu Ge still expressed his point of view without hesitation: "You should know that what I mean by 'communication and cooperation' does not mean 'deceit and enslavement', which has been explained in my conversation with the national teacher. It is very clear that if you continue to deceive the Rat Race with the so-called lies of god worship, you can only get a temporary benefit, but it will leave endless troubles.

"Just imagine, in the past we didn't know the existence of the National Teacher, and all the deception and slavery could be blamed on the National Teacher and the Celestial Organization. Even if the truth came out one day, the rat civilization would have no reason to hate the Earth Alliance.

"But if we know the deception of the national teacher, but do not know the deceit, and even deliberately encourage it to blow up the bubble of deception, so that countless Rat Races will sacrifice their lives for this lie. When the truth comes out, the remaining Rat Race What will they think of us, human civilization and rat civilization, and how should they coexist peacefully!

"It is difficult to achieve trust between two different intelligent races. If you are not careful, the chain of suspicion will tie each other tightly and drag you into the abyss of mutual destruction. I do not want human civilization and The initial contact with the Rat Race civilization began in such a way of intrigue, otherwise, even if we can temporarily deceive the Rat Race to eliminate the bug swarm, we will only create one or even countless enemies that are more terrifying than the bug swarm!"

"So, in your opinion, how should we be 'open and honest'?"

Facing Chu Ge's aggression, Lieutenant Colonel Wu Zhengting remained as calm as a sea of ​​ice, "You also said that communication between humans and the Rat Race is more difficult than reaching the sky, not to mention that the National Teacher has deceived the Rat Race, and the training of the National Teacher The Celestial Organization is indeed a member of human civilization, and the time is limited. How do you resolve the suspicion between each other, how do you explain the difference between the Earth Alliance and the Celestial Organization to the Rat Race, and most importantly, how to drive tens of thousands of The Rat Race, in order to keep Lingshan City on the ground, is willing to die in the face of overwhelming insect swarms?"
