Chapter 973 Think Twice Before You Act
As a wise man, how could the five elders not know the reason why the idiot didn't trade back the bomb-making method?
Wasn't it because he was afraid that the credit would be shared by others?
When they come back, they can only drink soup?
At this moment, the five elders just wanted to scold the lieutenant general.
"Idiot!"
Even if the credit was shared by others and they could only drink soup, it would be better than losing the bomb-making method and even losing their lives now, right?
Besides.
If the bomb-making method was handed over, this war would most likely be avoided.
In the eyes of the five elders, the mysterious white-faced team came for the bomb-making method.
Otherwise.
It would be impossible to rob the three major alliances at once.
"Five elders, calm down!"
The middle-aged man comforted: "We are not completely clueless now."
"Although the mysterious mask team did things very secretly, they were still seen by others. If we investigate in depth, we will definitely find out something."
"I have sent a person named 9420 to contact him. According to him, he was watching the battle in the cloud next to him at the time, and saw the whereabouts of the mysterious mask team."
"If we can investigate along this clue, we may be able to find out who the mysterious mask team is."
The five elders pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"In this case, this matter will be handed over to you to handle. Be sure to find the mask team."
"No matter who the other party is, if they dare to rob our world government's things, they will destroy our place."
"The most important thing is that the things they robbed are bomb-making methods, which is hindering the development of our world government."
"Yes!"
The middle-aged man took the order and left.
The headquarters hall fell into silence.
Suddenly.
The skinny old man just now had a gleam in his eyes, looked at the other four elders, and said his bold guess.
"This masked team seems to have suddenly appeared. Some of them are extremely powerful, with the strength of one against thirty or forty or forty or fifty people. I feel that the other party is 100% a military general."
"But have you ever doubted that this team suddenly emerged? Or has it been hiding for a long time and knows the importance of bombs, so it appeared to steal the bomb-making method?"
"I have a bold idea."
The skinny old man touched his gray beard, his eyes wise: "If it is said that this masked team has been hiding for a long time and was not exposed until the bomb-making method appeared."
"Then it can be said that the other party is our strong enemy, and it is also the kind of extremely forbearing force. This kind of force is the most terrifying."
The other four elders nodded in approval.
"I think so too. This force that suddenly appeared must have been hidden for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible for the other party to hide such a powerful strength."
"I didn't expect that this force could be so tolerant. It is much more powerful than those hidden families. Although they are hidden, they are just big forces. We are far behind."
"The other party offended so many open forces as soon as they came out. Maybe they can only hide for a lifetime."
"The other party's power must be strong. It is very likely to be similar to ours. However, I think the most important thing now is to stop the other party from making bombs, otherwise the other party's strength will inevitably have a big blowout."
After hearing these words, the skinny old man stood up and looked at a place with his hands behind his back: "What you said is indeed correct."
"But this is just the first guess!"
"There is another guess, that is, the mask team, will it be... the open force, playing tricks with us?"
The voice fell.
The other four elders suddenly turned around and looked at the skinny old man with surprise in their eyes.
Hmm?
What do you mean?
Darkness under the lamp... Meaning, the Masked Squad may not be a secret force, but an open force?
When the other four elders heard this, their eyes changed, and a reputation of a force suddenly came to their mind.
"Old Five, do you have your own basis for this guess, or are you imagining it out of thin air?"
"Old Five, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"Old Five, you should know what you mean by this. If you don't have a basis, you still can't say whatever you want, otherwise it won't be as simple as a bomb."
"Think twice before you act!"
The four elders advised, and there was some tension in their words.
They already knew the meaning of the skinny old man's words, and that was why they advised them to think twice.
If this is true, they may have to think about it carefully.
The skinny old man's eyes were sharp: "I am very clear-headed and know what I am saying."
"But have you ever thought about one thing, why did the masked team suddenly appear? They are so powerful, are they hiding their strength?"
"I don't believe that anyone with such a strong strength will hide themselves tightly, so I doubt them."
"Most of the forces in the Sky Island world are competing for the bomb-making method, and basically other forces can be sent to rob them halfway."
"Then, all the pointers in this direction point to the Merchant Alliance!"
The voice fell.
The four elders' eyes condensed.
They had just guessed from the skinny old man's words that the other party suspected the other party, that is, the Merchant Alliance.
But when they heard it, their hearts were still not calm.
If all this... was done by the Merchant Alliance...
...
However.
At this moment.
One of the four elders suddenly stood up and said thoughtfully: "I have an idea that is different from the fifth one."
"Let's not talk about whether the Chamber of Commerce has a motive or not. Let's discuss it from the opposite direction by pretending to be the mask team to snatch the bomb-making method."
"The Chamber of Commerce has the bomb-making method, why would it risk exposure to snatch the bomb-making method? Even if the other party wants to continue to monopolize bombs, I'm afraid it won't risk offending so many forces..."
"Second, the Chamber of Commerce is just a seller after all. Although the other party has made a fortune, it is still difficult to take out two generals, right?"
"Third, according to the news we have received, the forces targeting us and the dark web did not use bombs, but used cold weapons throughout the process. Would the Chamber of Commerce, which has endless bombs, not be able to take out bombs?"
"Although the third reason is a bit far-fetched, these three together can rule out 80% of the Chamber of Commerce."
The voice fell.
The headquarters building fell into silence.
The other three elders who did not speak felt that this made sense. The Chamber of Commerce has bombs, why would they take the risk to snatch something they already have?
When the skinny old man heard this, he was confident as before, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Yes!
If the mysterious mask team is the business alliance, why would they do such a thankless task?
The skinny old man was also doubting his own guess and judgment at this moment.
