Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 314 - 162: Forming an Alliance, Tie Long’s Speculation

Chapter 314: Chapter 162: Forming an Alliance, Tie Long’s Speculation

Li Changfeng at this moment wished he could slap Yue Cheng to death. What kind of trouble was he trying to stir up here? Allying with an Evil God? Are you crazy or am I?

As the Deputy Corps Commander of War City, he was strong and experienced, well aware of the terrifying and bizarre nature of Subspace Evil Gods.

If one comes into contact with an Evil God for too long, it’s very likely that unconsciously, they’d become a devotee of the Evil God, losing their humanity and only dedicating themselves to pleasing the Evil God.

They’d feel that serving the Evil God is the happiest thing in the world, even willing to give their life for it.

To normal people, such a state could be said to be a fate worse than death.

Li Changfeng worried that if War City allied with an Evil God, who knows when the entire city might fall, succumbing to such a terrifying state.

That would truly be courting death.

Li Changfeng recalled the heartfelt smiles on the faces of the residents of Mechanical City he had seen earlier.

He couldn’t help but shiver; could it be that all those residents were already...

He could only pray in his heart that Su Yu, this Evil God, would not agree to the alliance request...

However, what one fears most often comes to pass.

When Su Yu heard Yue Cheng’s words, his eyes moved slightly, appearing to show some interest:

"Send people to help me develop the Dead Silence Wilderness?"

"The population of Mechanical City is indeed somewhat lacking; in that case, let’s form an alliance."

Su Yu nodded in agreement, seemingly moved by the conditions Yue Cheng proposed.

In fact, although Mechanical City lacked population, Su Yu fundamentally did not need any such population right now.

With Mechanical Spirits around, Su Yu could develop the Dead Silence Wilderness all by himself even if he were alone.

Forming an alliance with War City might instead lead to some resources from the Dead Silence Wilderness being allocated to War City, causing Su Yu to suffer a loss of interests.

Therefore, he wasn’t very keen on the idea of an alliance earlier.

However, after hearing Yue Cheng’s words, he felt that War City was so sincere, it would be hard to refuse.

Moreover, he knew very little about the world outside of Dead Silence Wilderness.

By communicating more with War City, they could exchange what they have; even giving up some resources would be beneficial and not harmful.

After all, Dead Silence Wilderness wasn’t something Su Yu particularly cared about right now; Ruins Star was vast, with plenty of resources.

Upon hearing Su Yu’s agreement, Yue Cheng immediately became overjoyed; this mission was now perfectly completed!

"Wonderful! Esteemed Administrator!"

"Forming an alliance with War City is definitely the right decision!"

"Once we return to War City, we will immediately send personnel to assist Mechanical City in developing the Dead Silence Wilderness..."

"Of course, War City needs to take a portion of the resources developed, since we can’t work for free."

"The specifics of the allocation proportions will need to be gradually discussed..."

Eager for merit, Yue Cheng rattled off his words in excitement.

In the blink of an eye, the general details of the alliance were settled, leaving Li Changfeng unable to stop it.

Yue Cheng was previously in charge of the trade caravan and was rather adept at such collaborative development matters.

After listening, Su Yu nodded: "Do as you said, the details will be discussed gradually."

Thus, the formation of the alliance between Mechanical City and War City was considered to be initially achieved.

Standing by, Li Changfeng had the impulse to cover his face.

Su Yu suddenly became interested in the alliance; could it be he was eyeing War City’s development teams to use them as sacrifices?

If he’d known this would happen, he wouldn’t have said so much to Yue Cheng earlier; what to do now?!

Li Changfeng pondered for a moment, finally speaking: "In that case, Yue Cheng, you stay in Mechanical City and discuss the resource allocation proportions."

"I’ll return to report to the Commander and then send development teams over to jointly develop the Dead Silence Wilderness."

After some deep contemplation, Li Changfeng decisively decided... to sacrifice Yue Cheng first.

Letting Yue Cheng stay in Mechanical City as a hostage to hold Su Yu steady while he escaped back to relay the message.

Hearing this, Yue Cheng was momentarily stunned; wasn’t a major decision like resource allocation something that should be negotiated and decided by Li Changfeng, the Deputy Corps Commander, representing War City?

Why was it being handed over to him?

Could it be because he had accomplished the alliance task, earned credit, and thus the Deputy Corps Commander valued him, entrusting him with yet another important task?

Thinking this, Yue Cheng was immediately delighted and promptly puffed his chest out: "Deputy Corps Commander, rest assured, by the time War City’s development team arrives, I will have already settled the resource allocation matter!"

"Major matters like this alliance should indeed be reported by the Deputy Corps Commander to make it formal."

"Then I’ll stay here, waiting for your good news..."

Yue Cheng’s tone was excited, completely oblivious to the fact that the way Li Changfeng looked at him was as if watching someone marked for death.

Staying alone in this lair of the Evil God, could he even survive?

Even if he survived, should his personality drastically change, it would be as if he were dead.

Li Changfeng silently mourned for Yue Cheng for a moment, but he couldn’t afford to hesitate; any delay and neither of them might be able to leave.

Then he immediately respectfully said to Su Yu, "Esteemed Administrator, given the gravity of the matter, I will now return to report to the Commander."

Hearing this, Yue Cheng was somewhat shocked; in such haste?

According to etiquette, coming from such a distance, shouldn’t they at least have a meal and drink in Mechanical City?

However, how could Li Changfeng dare to consume anything from Mechanical City? All he wished for was to hurry and escape.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu did not respond but rather stared at Li Changfeng.

Naturally, he saw that Li Changfeng harbored hidden fears in his heart, and altogether it wasn’t about going back to report news, but rather about running for his life.

"How interesting, am I really that terrifying?"

"Does this Li Changfeng have some misunderstanding about me? Is it just the Ghost Energy that scared him to this extent?"
