Chapter 1897 Concern

While Theo convinced the five saints, Maya and the others also made their preparation for the upcoming invasion.
Star Group.
Maya and Rea walked down the hallway, heading to the meeting room. They had been sending invitations to all leaders of organizations and families.
"How many people are coming?" Maya asked.
"We've invited a total of 68 leaders from various organizations and families, 60 of them have come, six have denied our invitations and the other two haven't responded yet. They might come unannounced," answered Rea while looking at her Skylink.
"I see. At least sixty people have come." Maya nodded. "What are you planning to do to those eight?"
"The ones who have denied our invitations will be blacklisted from all our services, including your Star Group. As for the ones who still haven't given any reply yet, we'll respond according to their stance after the meeting."
"The military and the government?"
"The government has sent three people while the military has brought eight."
"Is that enough?"
"Since they're only supervising, it should be possible."
"Is the government planning to use nuclear attack?"
"I shall be the first to prevent that. The slime is formed by human mistakes, absorbing all kinds of chemicals, including polluted water that's contaminated by radiation. So, Nuclear will be ineffective. The only thing it will do is harm our people and the land."
Maya pinched the bridge of her nose. "I guess the enemy this time is far too strong."
"Don't worry. I believe Teacher will find a way to fight that monster."
"Yeah." Maya nodded. "Anyway, I'm going to use all my resources. Do you need my plane to bring someone else from the other bases?"
"I'm not very sure. On the one hand, it's the most logical reason. On the other hand, the moment we bring those people, there is a chance that the former Griffith Family will sneak in, causing a huge problem. So, Agata and I believe it's better if we can solve this problem by ourselves."
"I see. Anyway, I'll provide the weapons and all the other equipment you need. Unfortunately, the turrets have been destroyed, so we can't use them anymore. At least, we can use the military's weapons."
"Sadly, they won't be helping much, considering we have used most of them during the battle against the sea race. I think you haven't stopped producing them, right?"
"Yeah. After Theo destroyed it, I still maintained the production of the bullets and the turrets, so we could provide some support. Unfortunately, none of the turrets are completed right now."
"I see. I guess we can't expect any support in this battle." Rea nodded with a serious expression.
"Yeah. Anyway, we have arrived…" Maya stopped, looking at the door before them. She opened it and walked inside with Rea.
It was the meeting hall of the Star Group. There were more than one hundred people inside this hall.
They had been invited by Theo's group, specifically Maya, to discuss the incoming invasion.
Some of them accepted it because they were interested in this operation, some of them also didn't wish for the base's destruction, and some only took part because they wanted to see Theo in action.
They had their own goals in participating in this mission.
When Maya and Rea entered, all eyes were focused on them. However, some of them were confused, not understanding why only both of them came.
This was an event that involved the entire base, so Theo should be the one to lead it. Yet, the person in question didn't come.
They couldn't help but furrow their eyebrows.
One of them couldn't help but ask, "Where is Theodore Griffith?"
Maya glanced at that person and recognized him. He was the CEO of the Heartstone Group.
"He won't come." Maya shook her head. The people soon became disappointed since they expected Theo to come. But she added, "Although he is not here, it doesn't mean he doesn't want to meet all of you. The reason he is not here is because he is preparing another weapon."
"Preparing another weapon?" That statement piqued everyone's interest.
It reminded them of what Theo had done during the past two attacks. In the battle of the sea race, Theo was also missing, only to appear on the battlefield and turn around the situation.
In the previous invasion after the eruption, Theo had been working on the turrets.
It seemed this battle wasn't that different either. Theo was preparing a weapon to turn around the situation.
It made them feel relieved, thinking there would be a safe cushion for them to fall back on.
However, Maya also warned them. "Don't feel relieved yet. We are here to inform you that if we can't join hands for this fight, the base will collapse.
"That's why I need your help. We have to hold out and make sure the base isn't in chaos so that we can win this battle.
"I'm sure you know the consequences of the base falling into a state of chaos. The economy will collapse, the safety will be gone, and the people on the battlefield will end up deserting the battle altogether.
"That's why we can't have them enter the base," Maya explained the reason with a grim expression. All the people here were a leader of their own, so they could see the bigger picture.
They considered this carefully. After a while, one of them asked, "So, how are we going to do it? From the way it looks, the enemy can simply sneak in through the gap in our border…"
"That's why we are here." Maya glanced at Rea. "She will be briefing you about the basic plan and arrangement."
The meeting was about to start, but one person suddenly stopped them by asking one question. "Excuse me, before we start the meeting, I'd like to address something.
"Since everyone is here, are you going to be the one leading us? But with everyone being a leader of their own influences, I don't think we're that easy to follow your instructions."
