Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 546 Or, How About I Visit Your World?
Before Li Chenzhou could speak, Dugu Tianfeng answered the question for him.
"Oh!"
Hu Tao was also a shrewd person. He had just been momentarily excited, coupled with the thrill of seeing humans take down a Devourer nest for the first time, so he hadn't thought about the Controllers.
That's right, they now had two enemies, the Devourers and the Controllers. Moreover, the Devourers were out in the open; at least, they knew the locations of the Devourers' branch nests in the Duoluo World.
But the Controllers were different. Apart from the battles against the zombies and Blue Demons under the Controllers' command at Base No. 3, and some information brought back by the remnant soul of Qing Cang, they didn't know much about the Controllers.
In fact, even if they wanted to fight the Controllers now, they wouldn't know where to find them!
So, the Controllers were hiding in the dark. It was as if the Duoluo World was now a three-way battle, but only the Devourers and humans were on the surface.
If they were to fight the Devourers head-on now, although they could wipe out all their strongholds in the Duoluo World before the Devourers could react, it would definitely provoke the Devourers' crazy retaliation, and their fleet would definitely descend upon the Duoluo World.
At that time, they would have to devote themselves entirely to the battle against the Devourers, and the Controllers hiding in the dark could reap the benefits, which was certainly not a good choice for humans!
"When we captured this Devourer branch nest, four Predator fighters tried to escape. I used the Planet Destroyer Cannon to intercept them, but unfortunately, I only shot down three, and one escaped!"
Li Chenzhou said,
"Later, some Devourers also escaped, but I didn't chase after them. So, the Devourers must have learned about our previous battle information!"
Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Hu Tao and Dugu Tianfeng's eyes flickered, but neither of them spoke. In their opinion, if Li Chenzhou had tried his best to intercept them, the Devourers should not have had a chance to escape. Since he did this, there must be a reason.
"The Devourers will definitely be able to detect our battle this time. Our warriors used a lot of technology that doesn't belong to the Duoluo World. After all, they have been fighting with you for so many years, and they are very familiar with you!"
Sure enough, Li Chenzhou continued,
"I think the Devourers should know about the existence of the Controllers. So, after getting information about our previous battle, they will definitely suspect that there is a force that doesn't belong to the Duoluo World entering here!
And the only ones who can enter the Duoluo World, apart from other Devourer ranches, are the Controllers. And the Devourers must also be quite familiar with the other ranches, so in the end, their suspicion will definitely fall on the Controllers!"
"You mean... we hide in the dark and play the fisherman?"
Hu Tao's eyes flickered.
"Of course!"
Li Chenzhou nodded:
"Let the Devourers ferret out the Controllers, and then let them fight first. We hide in the dark and collect as much information as possible, waiting for the opportunity. Once we have a chance, we can strike and kill these scraps invading the Duoluo World!!!"
"Old Hu! Send this video to all the bases, and tell them our plan!"
Dugu Tianfeng obviously agreed with Li Chenzhou's plan, so he said,
"Also, tell all the bases to be careful. The Devourers will definitely ask their fleet for reinforcements. Once the fleet arrives, they will first capture the bases whose locations they have already grasped, and frantically capture the people inside!"
"That's right! They want to get information about foreign weapons, and they can only get it from us!"
Li Chenzhou nodded immediately:
"So, the most important thing right now is that my existence cannot be revealed, otherwise, the Devourers will not focus their attention on the Controllers!"
"But the problem is... we don't even know which bases the Devourers have information about!"
Hu Tao frowned, looking serious:
"If we knew which bases were exposed, we could have the people in those bases transferred. But now we don't know, we can't possibly transfer everyone from all the bases to Base No. 3, can we?"
"Little Li! Can you speed up the manufacture of the War Fortresses on your side?"
Dugu Tianfeng looked at Li Chenzhou.
Li Chenzhou frowned. He knew what Dugu Tianfeng meant, which was to make more War Fortresses, so that even if all the human bases in the Duoluo World were transferred into the War Fortresses, there would be no problem.
But this was not what Li Chenzhou wanted. War Fortresses were not as secretive as underground bases. If all the people in the Duoluo World were transferred to War Fortresses, it would require at least a hundred of them.
The quantity was not a problem. As long as there were enough slaughter points, let alone a hundred, even a thousand War Fortresses would not be a problem, and Li Chenzhou could also make a fortune!
The problem was that War Fortresses couldn't solve the problem at all, and they would still be found by the Devourers! Unless the War Fortresses were hidden underground, and not in the existing underground bases, because that would be meaningless.
In fact, according to Li Chenzhou's idea, the best option was to ignore it for the time being and let the Devourers capture humans from their known bases!
This way, they could find out which bases were exposed, and they could also tell those who were captured to deliberately lead the Devourers towards the Controllers during the interrogation, so that the Devourers would believe that it was the Controllers who were supporting the humans in fighting the Devourers!
Of course, this would definitely result in heavy casualties in the Duoluo World, because no one knew how many base locations the Devourers had grasped.
In any case, this was definitely a major event involving hundreds of thousands or even millions of lives, so Li Chenzhou was now quite conflicted!
"Is it because there's not enough time?"
Seeing that Li Chenzhou didn't answer, Dugu Tianfeng asked.
"As for War Fortresses, as long as you have enough crystal cores, we can work overtime to manufacture them on our side. There's no problem in this regard. But the problem is that the confidentiality of War Fortresses is actually not as good as underground bases."
Li Chenzhou shook his head and said:
"After all, War Fortresses are on the ground. No matter where they are hidden, they will not be as secretive as underground bases. What's more, the Devourers have so many Predator fighters. It won't take long to search the entire Duoluo World.
If you continue to choose underground bases, at most only those bases that have been exposed will be attacked by the Devourers, and the others can still be preserved. But if you all enter the War Fortresses, then you will definitely all be found. At that time... I'm afraid we can only fight head-on!"
"Then... can our people hide in your world?"
Hu Tao hesitated for a long time, and finally asked softly...
