Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 548 Three Choices!

"What do you think we should do?"

Du Gu Tianfeng asked Li Chenzhou, the question neatly diverting the previous topic, no longer mentioning the matter of entering Li Chenzhou's world.

Hu Tao also understood. He felt that if he were in Li Chenzhou's position, he wouldn't agree to such a large-scale migration, because it would definitely cause chaos!

Everyone would protect their own world. Hu Tao was like that, and so was Li Chenzhou. Therefore, Du Gu Tianfeng changed the subject, and Hu Tao wouldn't bring it up again.

"This is still up to you to decide, after all, I'm not from your world!"

Li Chenzhou thought for a moment and said:

"Anyway, you have three choices now. One is like you thought, trade for a large number of war fortresses from me and buy one for each base! Then put the war fortresses in the bases.

"The advantage of doing this is that it can protect your people to the greatest extent, but the disadvantage... one is that it requires a large number of mutated crystal cores. Remember that the daily operation of the fortresses also consumes mutated crystal cores!

"And another is that your bases are relatively scattered. If you don't want to expose the locations of the bases, then you have no way to support each other.

"The Devourers have already grasped the locations of some of your bases. When their reinforcements arrive, they will definitely attack these bases, and these bases can only rely on themselves to resist the Devourers.

"In that case, if any base is captured, the war fortress may fall into the hands of the Devourers, and they may be able to use the captured war fortress to find ways to attack the war fortresses!

"The second option is that you still buy enough war fortresses, and then choose a suitable location, such as a large enough mountain range, and put all the war fortresses there. Everyone in your Duoluo world will also be concentrated in this area!

"By doing this, you can support each other at any time, and use a large number of war fortresses to build a defensive cluster. This way, you can cover each other, plus the Star Destroying Cannons, and it won't be so easy for the Devourers to defeat you.

"But the disadvantage is that it also requires a large number of mutated crystal cores, and the other is that you will directly confront the Devourers head-on, and you will not be able to divert their attention to the Controllers!

"So, once you make this choice, not only will the Devourers grasp the location of all of you, but the Controllers will also know your location, and they will also know the existence of war fortresses and Star Destroying Cannons!

"The last option... is that you don't need war fortresses for the time being, let the other bases prepare, and wait for the Devourers to attack your exposed bases!

"You can dig some escape tunnels in advance. Start preparing now. All bases must dig them. When the Devourers come to attack, let the people inside use the tunnels to escape!

"Of course, this will cause you to lose some people, because someone must hold back the Devourers to give others enough time to escape. In addition, if the escaping people are discovered by the Devourers' fighters, then they must stop and not expose the locations of other bases!

"This process may take a long time, because you must wait until the Devourers no longer attack any of your bases and confirm that the locations of the remaining bases have not been exposed before it ends!

"After that, you can buy war fortresses again, equip them to the remaining bases, and just put the war fortresses in the bases!

"In addition, you also need to instill an idea in everyone, that the war fortresses and evolution potions all come from a mysterious person, and that mysterious person is me. Moreover, I also inadvertently said that these things come from some Controller!

"This way, when the people who are captured by the Devourers are interrogated, they will direct the Devourers' attention to the Controller, and that will achieve our goal!

"We can hide in the dark and wait for the Devourers to find the Controller, watching a great battle break out between them. We can take this opportunity to collect various information about both sides, and also find opportunities in the middle to destroy their vital forces!"

After listening to Li Chenzhou's words, Hu Tao and Du Gu Tianfeng looked at each other, both frowning.

Undoubtedly, the first method Li Chenzhou mentioned was actually what they had thought before. With the strength of their bases, it was not a problem to exchange for a war fortress, some Star Destroying Cannons, and evolution potions.

But now, after Li Chenzhou's reminder, they realized that there were great hidden dangers in this! That is the war fortress!

That's right, if they choose to hide the war fortresses in the bases, then they will inevitably be unable to assist each other. Once the Devourers concentrate their forces to attack a base, if they capture the base, it is really possible to obtain the war fortress.

The war fortress has a self-destruct system, but Hu Tao dare not guarantee that those guys will have the courage to self-destruct the fortress when they are finally in a desperate situation.

Not to mention, with the precedent of the Liu family and the Wang family, who knows if there are other families colluding with the Controllers or the Devourers? If the remaining two major families don't have them, what about the other small families?

Hu Tao felt that if they really bought a war fortress for each base, perhaps all the information about the war fortresses would be obtained by the Devourers and the Controllers.

Currently, the war fortress is their biggest trump card. If this is thoroughly researched by the Devourers and the Controllers, and they come up with a way to solve the war fortress, then the end of the Duoluo world will really come!

Therefore, Hu Tao and Du Gu Tianfeng both abandoned the first option at the same time! They couldn't take risks, especially with those parasites in the council! They didn't want those guys to cause their war fortresses to be captured by the Devourers or the Controllers!

The second option, gathering everyone together to form a fortress group, does eliminate this hidden danger, because all the fortresses are together. Even if a fortress owner wants to give the fortress to the Devourers or the Controllers, there is no chance at all, because so many fortresses are around.

Moreover, with so many war fortresses covering each other, the combat power is greatly increased. Just like Li Chenzhou said, it is difficult for the Devourers to break through such a fortress group!

But the problem is that they will have to face the Devourers head-on all the time. At that time, all the attention of the Devourers will definitely be on the humans, and the Controllers can just hide in the dark and be the final beneficiary!

In that case, even if they can eventually win and destroy the Devourers, will they still have the ability to fight against the Controllers who come next?

So, it seems that the second option is quite risky, a bit like burning the boats...
