Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 547 Home is Best
Before Li Chenzhou could answer, Dugu Tianfeng said loudly,
"Going to Xiao Li's world will only drag his world into the sights of the Devourers! It won't have any other effect! On the contrary, it will expand the battlefield and cause the Devourers to invest more troops!"
"Ah! Sorry, Xiao Li, I was just anxious!"
In fact, Hu Tao knew he had said the wrong thing as soon as he opened his mouth. Hearing this, he smiled wryly and apologized to Li Chenzhou.
Dugu Tianfeng was right. Li Chenzhou's world had not been occupied by the Devourer army because their world level was too low, only level three.
If their people entered that world, it would undoubtedly raise the level of that world, which would definitely attract the attention of the Devourers and cause them to deploy troops to that world.
That would be equivalent to opening up two battlefields, which would be completely counterproductive. Moreover, Hu Tao and the others also knew that with Li Chenzhou's ability, there was no difficulty in raising his evolution level to the maximum. After all, he could turn thousands of level five Avengers into level nine Awakened.
Therefore, Li Chenzhou himself had been suppressing it, refusing to raise his level, certainly because he knew this. So, Hu Tao's words were obviously going to cause Li Chenzhou's dissatisfaction.
And they were now quite dependent on Li Chenzhou. At least, the recovery of Base No. 3, the war fortress, and the Devourer stronghold that had just been destroyed were things that the people of the Duoluo world could not do. Which of these things was not done by Li Chenzhou and his men?
In particular, destroying the Devourer stronghold. Although most of the Devourers were killed by those soldiers, and they were the ones who saved the people, Hu Tao and Dugu Tianfeng, who had watched the battle, knew that Li Chenzhou was the protagonist of this war.
Perhaps his previous war fog could only be regarded as icing on the cake, because even without the war fog, the soldiers would eventually be able to rush in. But without Li Chenzhou's war chariot and star destroyer cannon, let alone destroying the stronghold, it was questionable whether three thousand soldiers would survive!
Therefore, if Hu Tao's words were misunderstood by Li Chenzhou, thinking that they wanted to drag Li Chenzhou's world into the water, causing Li Chenzhou's dissatisfaction or even turning against them, it would be a disaster for the Duoluo world.
Li Chenzhou didn't even need to really turn against them or fight them. Just taking away his war fortress and war chariot would be enough to make the people of Base No. 3 despair.
Moreover, even if Li Chenzhou did this, Hu Tao and the others couldn't say anything, because the war fortress originally belonged to Li Chenzhou, and they had not yet given Li Chenzhou the mutation crystal cores.
Moreover, Base No. 3 was still there. Li Chenzhou only needed to say that he had something to do and needed to return to his world, and then take away the war fortress, letting them return to the underground. There was absolutely nothing wrong with that.
However, Li Chenzhou would certainly not turn against them because of Hu Tao's words. He also knew that Hu Tao was a soldier and was straightforward. In addition, he had been building with those civilians these days, so he was so concerned about the safety of those people.
"It's okay, Lao Hu!"
In order to make Hu Tao and Dugu Tianfeng sure that he did not take Hu Tao's words to heart, Li Chenzhou directly changed the previous General Hu to Lao Hu. He looked at Hu Tao and said:
"I know you're anxious because you're worried about the safety of those civilians. Moreover, I don't mind your people entering our world, at least, level three and below is no problem.
As long as it doesn't raise the level of my world, causing the Devourers to come, I have no problem with you sending as many people as you want to my world!"
"Really?"
Hu Tao's eyes lit up!
Although their world level was the highest, there were many civilians below level three. After all, those guys in the council did not value civilians, so naturally they would not give them resources to raise their level.
And Hu Tao himself was a poor man. He didn't even have mutation crystal cores to improve his soldiers, so how could he have the extra energy to care about those civilians?
Therefore, in the Duoluo world, if you want to find civilians below level three, there will definitely be as many as you want. However, apart from people like Hu Tao, no one cares about the lives of these people.
For example, the council would never be happy about this. For them, their own lives are the most important thing. What does it matter how many civilians die?
"Yes!"
Looking at Hu Tao's excited eyes, Li Chenzhou nodded, and then asked:
"But… Lao Hu, I trust you, but that doesn't mean I trust everyone else in your world! If you really organize a large number of civilians of level three and below to enter my world, can you guarantee that they will all be like you, grateful and not causing trouble in my world?
You need to know that in my world, the highest level of ability users is only level three! And there are not many of them, and many are just ordinary people!
When a large number of your people enter my world, can you guarantee that they have no other ideas? Can you guarantee that they will abide by the laws there? Can you guarantee that they will not covet my world?"
"This…"
Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Lao Hu was stunned and didn't speak for a long time, because… he couldn't guarantee it!
"Lao Hu, Dugu! Coming to this world and meeting you, I know you are good people, so I am willing to fight alongside you, and even help you train soldiers and arm them, and even bring out the war fortress."
Li Chenzhou continued:
"However, I love my world even more. There are my brothers, my family, my clansmen, my compatriots. I cannot bring potential dangers to them because of my own decisions!
Therefore, what I can do is to use my own ability, as well as the weapons and equipment from our side, to help you. I can even summon some warriors to help you fight. However, I will not bring the war to our place, nor will I allow too many people who do not belong to my world to enter my world!
If your family members want to go over, that's no problem. I must control the number. You also understand this in your hearts. No matter where people go, there will be factions. Even in your own world, there are military departments, councils, four major families, the Avengers Alliance, etc.
If your people come to our world, they will definitely form their own faction, and then…"
"Phew! You're right!"
Li Chenzhou didn't finish his words, but Hu Tao already understood. He sighed and said:
"That's right, if our people go over, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, it will definitely bring a lot of trouble to your world. I understand. If it were me, I wouldn't agree!"
"So, what we need to think about now is how to kill the Devourers and the Controllers, and then, each live our own lives in our own worlds!"
Li Chenzhou said with a smile…
