This sudden, coherent information hit everyone like a bomb.
Especially for Ye Zhongming, who felt an unprecedented thrill.
He was different from others; he had been reborn and experienced various apocalypses in two lifetimes. When he first came back to life, he vowed to uncover the truth behind the apocalypse.
Hearing this piece of information, for some reason, Ye Zhongming felt as though the answer was right there.
Was it because of the terms "huge wheel" and "nest"? Or was it because the person he had once "seen" was the closest to killing the Slave Clan?
Sister Hong and Le Da Yuan could tell from Ye Zhongming's expression that he was stirred, even though the probability of this being a trap was quite high.
But no one spoke; at such a time, especially one that could affect the fate of the entire Cloud Summit, no one would dare to influence Ye Zhongming.
"Reply."
Ye Zhongming pondered for a long time before suddenly speaking to the communicator.
The communicator was taken aback for a moment but quickly prepared to send out the signal.
"Stay put for assistance."
The signal was quickly sent out, and while a response might be received, it would take a long time. Ye Zhongming, Sister Hong, and the others left the room.
Currently, all the Survivor Fortresses were massive factories, and many large-scale projects were in full swing. Looking up, unknown tall building frameworks were visibly expanding at a rapid pace.
In addition to the giant cannon project, there were many other essential functional buildings to make up for the shortcomings of the fortresses that had followed the Hall People.
Next month, more projects would commence, and the integration of the Survivor Fortresses would officially begin.
"In the best-case scenario, the planned construction will take over two years to complete."
Le Da Yuan's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Having a background as an engineer, he felt that the various projects within the Lena Alliance were more like a technological reality unfolding, providing him ample room to excel.
Moreover, he was about to participate in the Fortress Integration Plan, which was a dream job that excited him to the point of losing sleep.
Sister Hong shot her husband a glance, wondering when he would stop saying no and start asking serious questions.
"Little Ye, are you really planning to go?"
Ye Zhongming smiled and nodded.
He had to go; otherwise, what was the point of being reborn? Was it enough just to become powerful? Not to mention that he was currently just a peak powerhouse; while he was strong among his peers, he was far from the strongest. He had no idea how many years it would take to reach the level of the Old Dean.
Even if he achieved the height of being the number one in the Lena Alliance, would that be enough to confront the Slave Clan?
Without a clear path, Ye Zhongming truly had no idea how many years he would need to grow to personally kill a member of the Slave Clan.
Moreover, he couldn't be sure that if he just continued cultivating, he would eventually be able to face the Slave Clan head-on.
Thus, he undoubtedly needed some 'external force' to guide or enhance the path he was to take.
The person he had once "seen" in the coffin should be able to provide some valuable insights, and the integration of Dominion Equipment might also be a powerful route.
So he had to go.
"But not now," Ye Zhongming added.
Sister Hong and Le Da Yuan visibly sighed in relief.
They wouldn't try to dissuade him, but they were genuinely worried.
Ye Zhongming pointed around and said, "These projects need me here; otherwise, there will be coordination issues, and both Cloud Summit and the Library Palace will be at a disadvantage."
As of now, Ye Zhongming was the spokesperson for the Alliance of Small Races, and the Library Palace was a steadfast ally.
With more and more small races joining this alliance, they had already surpassed individual super races in numbers. Although they couldn't yet compare to the original Lena People Alliance or Su Clan Alliance, their scale had reached a new height.
