Aberrant Beasts are at the original level, even if there are more of them, there’s nothing to be afraid of.
All he had to do was wait for the Mutual Aid Society to mature, and after that, it was all about reaping the rewards.
After one sweep, Gu Hang would have had the entire Green Valley Region completely under his control, and it would have seemed as easy as reaching into a bag and taking what he wanted.
But now, the news brought by Hu Ke had raised deep concerns in Gu Hang.
The biotechnology of the Nature Salvation Society involved supernatural forces and demon knowledge, and with that, these creatures could not simply be treated as a local environmental monster formation.
If he considered Demons as the hypothetical enemy…
Gu Hang felt incredibly uneasy inside.
To put it bluntly, even the Green Skin Tribe of Gaota Province, which had not fully developed yet, proved to be a tough battle, and if he were to encounter Demons or Chaos Traitors… they definitely wouldn’t be easier to deal with than the Green Skin Orcs.
At this point, it was Hu Ke who was trying to reassure Gu Hang not to worry too much.
“The situation hasn’t deteriorated to an irreversible point.” The C9 employee who had just joined the alliance comforted his biggest boss, and said, “At least during my half-year stay in Chanter Town, I only noticed their technology was related to demon knowledge. I haven’t seen any solid evidence of their more significant ties with Demons and definitely haven’t personally seen a Demon.
Lord Governor, you don’t have to be overly worried.”
However, Hu Ke added another line after saying this: “But we might need to speed up our actions. After all, no one knows what could happen if we give them more time… even this year’s particularly massive wave of Aberrant Beasts, there’s no doubt it’s the doing of the Nature Salvation Society.
It’s just a pity that in the past six months, I kept stalling and didn’t undergo their so-called ‘sublimation transformation’, and that’s why I couldn’t access many top-secret details or confirm their exact aims.”
Gu Hang nodded and said, “I understand. I’m very grateful for the intelligence you’ve provided. You’ve worked hard during this time, and the Civil Administration Office should have prepared your new home for you. Take your family and have a good rest. The future development of the alliance will rely even more on your contributions. As for the Green Valley Region issue…”
He paused, then Gu Hang continued, “I don’t plan to change our original strategy, we just have to speed up.”
This was inevitable.
Without knowing the enemy’s plans, and also finding it difficult to find ways to investigate, the best response was to strike quickly and ruthlessly to completely eliminate them before the enemy’s actions fully commenced.
Gu Hang no longer bothered with the two technical experts, Wu Jiarong and Hu Ke, but made his own calculations.
The best resolution time was within a month.
The Quintet would remain for another month before leaving. Although the Starship had suffered some not insignificant damage, its weapon systems were still relatively intact. The ammunition reserves were no longer ample, but still somewhat sufficient, enough to carry out an orbital strike on the ground without issue.
Therefore, the best solution for Gu Hang right now was to resolve the Green Valley problem within a month, while the orbital strike capability was still present, and to thoroughly eradicate the Nature Salvation Society.
If things were dragged out past a month and the orbital strike capability was gone, that would be troublesome.
Having thought this through, Gu Hang called his secretary, who was also his butler that had come with him to Rage Owl Star, Zhang Chao.
“Send an order to Yan Fangxu, cancel all troop rotations, all soldiers must be ready to mobilize within three days. His troops will depart after three days, war has begun.”
“Yes!” Zhang Chao instinctively responded, then asked with some confusion, “But… what is the target of the war?”
“The entire Green Valley Region.” Gu Hang replied.
…
Jason Morgan felt that since the establishment of the new alliance, his luck had been particularly good.
He had received another commendation for discovering a top-tier talent for the alliance.
It all seemed dreamlike.
In all honesty, he had just wanted to find an exceptional doctor to help solve the infection and death problem among the refugees.
And from that, he stumbled upon an Engine Prophet?
Jason Morgan had since come to understand what an Engine Prophet represented.
He now counted himself fortunate for not having been rude at the time, but instead, had shown the appropriate respect to Hu Ke.
If the alliance made any key technological breakthroughs in the future, he could claim some credit for it!
Still, this matter was merely an episode to him. Although he benefited greatly from it, and during the recent communication with the leadership of the Immigration Bureau, they even mentioned his promotion by two ranks was a certainty.
Naturally, he was overjoyed.
However, his leadership also reminded him of one thing.
“Your primary job still needs to be done well.”
“I understand!”
And what was his primary job?
1. Ensure the success of the autumn harvest.
2. Manage population migration, with the most important task being infectious disease control.
Both had been his ongoing efforts.
Recently, it was already autumn, and the primary food crops of the major plantations in the Northern Green Valley Region were nearing the harvest season.
Although this year’s total yield was bound to be less than stellar, it was crucial to harvest what could be harvested.
