C1536 The Demand for Benefits

In the meeting room on the highest floor of the central building of Milan City, the president of Eight Big Companies was sitting at the meeting table. On both sides of the table, Orred was sitting at the top.

Due to the third ranked Domingo company being severely injured by Qin Yunyi and Death's Scythe, it caused the status of the entire Domingo company in Old World to drop drastically. The seat of Eight Big Companies was replaced by the company of the First Elder, Gediya.

However, at this moment, the atmosphere in the meeting room looked unusually solemn. It was completely different from the previous meetings.

Under normal circumstances, the meeting of the highest level in Milan City was very relaxed. Although the CEO of Eight Big Companies usually had different opinions, as long as Orred made up his mind, there would not be any other opinions.

Therefore, this kind of highest level meeting was mostly about exchanging opinions with the CEO of Eight Big Companies, or a meeting where Orred proposed their own opinions.

But this time, it was completely different. . .

The people in charge of Eight Big Companies all had grim expressions. Orred did not look as relaxed as he used to be when everything was under his control.

"Lord Orred! Isn't this the same as consuming our strength and helping the new world gain time to develop? It's not like I don't care about the big picture. I also understand that in the war between humans and giants, humans first need to stand on the same side. But Lord Orred. . . Since they are united as one, they should have an equal position. Even if there is a huge difference in strength between our Old World and their new world, we still have our advantages. In this war that is about to erupt, who will play a greater role? No one knows why we, the Old World, have to sacrifice ourselves. To help the new world take the lead in this war? Sir, to tell the truth, I don't understand!"

The strongest elder, Gediya, finally couldn't help but speak up after a period of silence in the office.

These words were spoken with great importance. It could be said that it was the most intense objection that Orred had heard since he was in charge of Old World. And this voice undoubtedly represented the overall opinion of the heads of the other seven companies present!

It could even be considered to represent the collective will of the 108 companies in Old World!

Because Qin Yunyi's request was indeed harming the interests of all their companies!

Naturally, it was to delay the preparation period of the giants and to strive for a direction beneficial to mankind for the final war.

But in the eyes of everyone in Old World, this goal was just a new world using them as cannon fodder.

This idea was very normal. Orred also understood what kind of backlash he would receive when he proposed this idea in the meeting.

No matter how strong his control over the Old World was, when his demands were completely different from the demands of the interest group, he would be instantly opposed by everyone!

This was a principle that had existed since ancient times. The leader of any group must be Being responsible for the overall interests of a group. If one wanted to harm the interests of the entire group, no matter how successful this leader was, he would be abandoned by the entire group!

Even during the most powerful period of the Great Tang in China's history, Li Tang's rule had to be established on the support of the Longxi nobles. Even during the Ming and Qing dynasties when the feudal emperor system reached its peak, the so-called emperor who could decide thousands of miles with a single word must always represent the interests of all the ruling classes in order to ensure the stability of his ruling position!

The strength of the group's leader was built on the absolute support of the entire group. This point was the same even in the Evil Era.

Orred was very powerful. It could be said that he was a man of his word in the Old World, but when he truly touched the interests of everyone in the Old World, he would surely receive the fiercest backlash.

He could kill one person, ten people, and even all the presidents of the companies, but he could not kill all the ruling class of the Old World!

And these presidents were only the representative figures of the ruling class on the surface. They might be the head sheep, but they were not the core.

The true core was benefits!

"Because I have thought about it carefully, relying on our guerilla tactics, At most, we can form some sort of stalemate with the giants in an area, and guerilla warfare can't really destroy the giants, And it can't really guarantee our safety. When the giants decide to launch a large-scale attack and use absolute numbers to fill in our area, We don't have much ability to resist. "

Orred sighed and continued, "But the new world is different, they are more stable. Comparatively speaking, we don't have much potential for development. Rather than that, why don't we try to buy as much time as possible for the new world, guerilla warfare? In the end, it is not a long-term solution. "

"But Lord Orred, we sacrifice our strength. We will help Old World win the time. If the giant wins the final war. . . There is no need to mention it, but if the human wins. . . What will we do? Without strength in our hands, we don't even have the capital to negotiate with a new world! And once humanity wins the final war. . . Start building a new order, what about us people? In order to truly rule the entire new world, apart from the Atville and the Donghua, the Fourteen Companies Alliance would probably be executed by Qin Yunyi. The presidents and Rank-9 powerhouses of the other companies were all killed by Qin Yunyi. This Lord Qin. . . It's absolutely not too much to say that he is ruthless and merciless!"

Gediya continued.

As the only Rank-9 among the people present in the meeting, besides Orred, Gediya's words were indeed more unyielding than the presidents of other companies.

Orred sighed again. How could these people in front of him really care about the interests of the entire race? What they cared about was the power they had in their hands while they were alive.

The result of human lives being as worthless as grass in Evil Era was that almost everyone was only willing to live at the moment, and only wanted to think about what would happen when they were still alive. As for the future of the entire race, no one cared about what would happen in a few decades or even a hundred years.

No matter how pleasant the words sounded, the truth was the same.2

"So. . . Do I have to kill all of you?" Orred asked expressionlessly.

The eight of them were shocked at the same time. Gediya even jumped up from his seat in an instant. Only then did he realize that he had lost control of himself. He laughed dryly and said, "Master, We are doing this for the sake of the entire Old World. Don't get angry first. How about. . . We discuss this matter? Give us some time to consider it? After all, it is a little sudden. We need to go back and convince the others. "

Orred gave Gediya a deep look before waving his hand tiredly. The eight company heads hurriedly ran out of the meeting room as if they had been granted amnesty.

At the same time the eight of them left, a black shadow slowly appeared behind Orred. It was Wang Zhi's shadow, Wunian.

"It seems like Master Wang Zhi's guess is correct. " Wunian said.

"Do we have to go to the next step?" Orred asked tiredly.

"Master Wang Zhi is very clear. We will not force you. You have to think about it carefully. If you are willing to do it, we will help you. If you are not willing, we will not interfere with the Old World if it continues to be like this. "

After saying that, Wunian's figure disappeared once again.
