Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba-Chapter 397 - 398: The Seventh Director! Peace Talks or Fight to the End!
In the final stage of the great war in the Purple Crystal Star Realm, Gu Qijue did not participate.
He had not reached the Purple Crystal Star Realm when the war had already ended.
Numerous Klein People retreated from the Purple Crystal Star Realm and began to establish bases around it.
In the recent battle, although they were defeated, the Star Cluster Alliance also suffered heavy losses.
These Klein People, relentless in their intentions, have already started preparing for the next war.
As more Klein People entered this Star Domain, the Star Cluster Alliance did not pursue them in victory.
Currently, the combat forces of the Star Cluster Alliance are exhausted, unable to engage in a second war with the Klein People.
Star Cluster Alliance, holographic conference room.
The full member meeting of the Star Cluster Alliance convened once more.
Once everyone gathered, Ming God, as the Alliance Leader of the Star Cluster Alliance, made several announcements.
These decisions were not made by Ming God alone.
Before making these decisions, Ming God had privately solicited opinions from various parties.
So when Ming God announced some matters, no one was surprised.
Ming God merely said, "Before this Star Cluster Alliance full meeting begins, we will make some adjustments to the senior leadership of the Star Cluster Alliance."
"According to the latest news, in the recent battle, three of the eight directors of the Star Cluster Alliance were killed in action."
"We will be making some replacements for the directors of the Star Cluster Alliance."
"Appointing the current Vice Alliance Leader Alfred as the First Director."
"Appointing Ulemi, the Supreme Commander of the Purple Crystal Civilization’s combat unit, as the Vice Alliance Leader of the Star Cluster Alliance."
This directive carries two layers of meaning.
The first layer of meaning is that the representative of the Purple Crystal Civilization has become part of the senior leadership of the Star Cluster Alliance.
The second layer of meaning is that the original Vice Alliance Leader Alfred performed poorly in the previous battle.
Otherwise, he would not have been replaced; it would have been the other Vice Alliance Leader, Profound Spirit Lady.
After Ming God finished, the positions of Alfred and Ulemi in the holographic conference room changed.
Ulemi appeared to the right of Ming God, while Alfred took the seat of the First Director.
Ming God’s voice quickly continued: "Appointing the original Third Director Sathy as the Second Director."
"Appointing the original Seventh Director Yu Xuanji as the Fifth Director."
"Appointing the original Eighth Director Han Wenzheng as the Sixth Director."
"Appointing the Supreme Leader of the Infinite Empire, Gu Qijue, as the Seventh Director."
"Appointing the Supreme Leader Chen Xiao of the Peaceful Civilization as the Eighth Director."
Ming God listed the personnel adjustments of the Star Cluster Alliance in one breath.
Most people were not surprised by this result as they had known about it for a while.
Some who had not received prior news were slightly surprised but not very shocked or accepting.
In their view, such adjustments were relatively appropriate.
After adjusting the senior leadership of the Star Cluster Alliance, Ming God continued to discuss an urgent matter at hand.
"In the recent battle, both the Star Cluster Alliance and the Klein People suffered heavy losses."
"The prolonged confrontation made both the Star Cluster Alliance and the Klein People realize."
"Even if a power difference exists between the two sides, it’s limited."
"In the short term, the Star Cluster Alliance cannot eliminate the Klein People, and the Klein People cannot eliminate the Star Cluster Alliance either."
"Recently, the representatives of the Klein People have approached the Star Cluster Alliance."
"Their implication is, if the Star Cluster Alliance is willing to cede some interests."
"Then the Star Cluster Alliance and the Klein People can coexist peacefully."
"What’s your opinion on this matter, Vice Alliance Leaders, the eight Directors, and the Supreme Leaders of the Star Cluster Alliance?"
Unlike earlier, only a few were aware of this information Ming God revealed.
So when Ming God presented this information, many supreme leaders of Star Cluster Civilizations were visibly taken aback.
The expressions of the crowd were very complex.
Some supreme leaders glared and were enraged by the matter, clearly hawkish and prepared to fight to the end, refusing negotiations.
While other supreme leaders looked relatively relieved, as if a burden had been lifted from their hearts.
Compared to the complete destruction of their civilization, ceding some interests to the Klein People was acceptable.
Such people have evidently forgotten the lesson of today ceding five cities, tomorrow ten, which makes them naively wish for peace.
While the supreme leaders of other Star Clusters were still pondering, First Director Alfred from the Thunder Zone Star Cluster expressed his stance.
"On behalf of the Thunder Zone Star Cluster, I agree with the peace negotiations."
"The prolonged war has caused significant depletion to the Star Cluster Alliance."
"Continuing to fight will lead to even greater losses for the Star Cluster Alliance."
"If we can trade smaller losses for peace, why not?"
After Alfred, Second Director Sathy from the Eternal Star Cluster also expressed his stance.
"On behalf of the Eternal Star Cluster, I agree with the peace negotiations."
"At its peak, the Star Cluster Alliance had nearly ninety Star Cluster members."
"However, now the Star Cluster Alliance only has sixty members left."
"While the Klein People also lost heavily in the previous battle."
"Our losses, undoubtedly, are more severe."
"We couldn’t defeat the Klein People even at our strongest."
"Currently, our chances against the Klein People are undoubtedly lower."
"Therefore, I urge everyone to agree to peace talks!"
After Alfred and Sathy spoke, many exchanged glances.
However, some were moved by their words.
At this time, everyone turned their attention to the remaining directors, as well as the Alliance Leader and two Vice Alliance Leaders.
Under their gaze, Ming God stated, "Silver Flame Civilization abstains."
This attitude from Silver Flame Civilization means they are neither advocating for battle nor for peace.
This indicates that there are also various voices within Silver Flame Civilization.
Silver Flame Civilization was indecisive for a moment and could only wait for others’ choices before deciding.
Ulemi’s stance surprised everyone somewhat. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
He glanced at Gu Qijue, then said, "The decision of the Infinite Empire is the decision of the Purple Crystal Civilization."
The Purple Crystal Civilization was evidently backing the Infinite Empire, making Gu Qijue’s opinion particularly pivotal.
As the most prominent Supreme Leader in the Star Cluster Alliance today, Gu Qijue was already considered a trendsetter.
After Ulemi’s statement, everyone paid more attention to him.
The other Vice Alliance Leader was the Profound Spirit Lady of the Celestial God Star Cluster.
Her opinion also surprised many.
"The Celestial God Star Cluster neither advocates war nor peace; if most others advocate peace, the Celestial God Star Cluster will withdraw from the Star Cluster Alliance and head to other Star Domains."
After the Alliance Leader and two Vice Alliance Leaders stated their positions, many eyes turned to the remaining six directors who had not yet spoken.
To everyone’s surprise, the Third to Sixth Directors all abstained and declined to state their positions.
