Chapter 1124: Chapter 77: Upper, Middle, Lower—Three Strategies
In the early stages, this matter can’t be too substantial; otherwise, when the Empire and Federation lay their cards on the table, it will lose its meaning.
But it also can’t be too insignificant; otherwise, it won’t catch the Star Alliance’s attention.
It’s best to involve the X Level Life Form, but the specifications can’t be too high.
“Tsk…” Li Ming slightly frowned; he needed to maintain a very delicate balance in this matter to guide the outcome to what he wanted to see.
“I need a perfect bait…”
He absentmindedly scratched at the Star Map, realizing there were very few candidates that fit.
His information channels were not very good, so after a brief deliberation, he contacted the Navigator, informed him of his requirements, and asked him to use the Pioneer’s intelligence network to search.
The four of them had already reached a consensus within the Deep Dimension.
In the coming time, all actions will block the Fallen Blood, while stripping him of all permissions, equivalent to expulsion, has been notified to all organization members.
At the same time, the Pioneer will undergo a period of dormancy to complete the restructuring from the underlying framework, thoroughly ridding the influence of the Fallen Blood.
This isn’t difficult; Adam, in order to conceal his identity, mostly acts as a bridge and behind-the-scenes facilitator, without much involvement internally.
“To solve the pressure of the Three Civilizations once and for all, this is just one aspect…”
Li Ming’s mind has been in constant motion recently, pondering solutions.
It’s not quite possible to completely overthrow the Three Civilizations, but stopping them isn’t as tough as imagined.
Facing the current difficulties, he summarized three solutions: upper, middle, and lower.
The lower strategy is to quickly obtain the Diglas’s Crown and then disappear.
However, due to the King-making Trial limitations, it’s almost impossible to complete it; once he can pass the Subordinate Dominator Trial, he wouldn’t need to disappear, much like a tasteless morsel.
The middle strategy is to unite the High-level Life Form Union and the Mechanic Association, forming a situation that balances the Three Great Civilizations.
Although there aren’t significant issues on the Mechanic Association’s end, due to the overall lack of strength, it’s mainly supplementary support.
The main force still lies with the High-level Life Form Union, but this organization is currently a scattered group.
Moreover, with cunning foxes like Gusta and Anatoli, wanting to integrate that bunch against the Three Civilizations is quite challenging but has hope.
The upper strategy is to become an X Level Life Form and crush everything.
This is only limited by time and the Genetic Seed; the issue isn’t too large or too small.
Not choosing the lower strategy, combining upper and middle strategies, using the middle strategy to buy time for the upper strategy.
Li Ming wrote and drew in the virtual projection, circling and branching, “Once news of Chrono’s demise comes out, the situation should become much easier. Best to incorporate the issue of the corpse into it, go with the flow, that would be the best of the best strategy.”
This idea’s form wasn’t achieved overnight but was optimized through continuous thinking.
Thinking of this, he added a few screening criteria to the Navigator.
He needed to wait for results on this matter, while his focus continuously fell onto another issue.
“Holy Castle…”
Li Ming couldn’t help but think, while he could use a Mimicry body to remotely communicate with the Descent within Holy Castle.
However, he himself didn’t know Holy Castle’s true coordinates, which was a bit awkward.
With the current situation, if he doesn’t know Holy Castle’s coordinates, there might be uncertain impacts later,
possibly involving flanking related plans, and the connection between him and Holy Castle isn’t unbreakable.
“Must find a way to obtain the coordinates…” Li Ming contemplated, already turning on the smart terminal.
As for where to get them, he had already set a target in his mind.
Quickly, he found the person he wanted to contact—Abel.
The other party had contacted him a few days ago, in line with Abel’s usual style, wanting insider intel immediately every time something significant related to Azure Dragon occurred.
But at that time, Li Ming had many busy matters temporarily not addressing him, only responding today now that he had free time.
The communication link didn’t connect right away; Li Ming wasn’t concerned, casually setting it aside, preparing to develop the Genetic Seed.
After waiting for no more than two or three minutes, Abel responded, albeit only through audio connection, with white sound waves lines vibrating continuously.
“Li Ming?” He suppressed his voice.
“Your Highness seems inconvenient?” Li Ming raised an eyebrow, “Then let’s wait and contact later.”
“No need…” Abel quickly responded, “I’m in a meeting.”
“Meeting?” Li Ming had an intuition, “Could it be related to my teacher?”
Abel was silent for a while before responding, “Yes, currently cross-referencing traces of your teacher’s presence.”
Li Ming was silent too, inexplicably sensing the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but he quickly adjusted, “Any findings?”
“Not yet.” Abel said vaguely for two or three sentences before cautiously asking, “Are you Talos?”
“Oh?” Li Ming was rather surprised, “Your Highness’s status has grown, even knowing things like this.”
Abel remained silent for a moment before asking, “Is Chrono dead, was it a cooperative effort between you and your teacher?”
Li Ming chuckled, “Your Highness isn’t playing fair, trying to get insider information for free?”
Only after that did Abel add, “The Three Civilizations just held a Leader Level meeting, currently in contact.”
Exchanging deduced information for other deduced information.
Li Ming pondered briefly and replied, “That’s correct.”
“So, your teacher does indeed possess a certain ability to freely enter and exit Holy Castle, and it’s not through regular channels.” Abel speculated just so openly.
