The Insectoids, a race that had troubled the humans for almost a hundred years, should be kept or destroyed?
The Federation's upper echelons had discussed this matter many times, but they could not reach a consensus.
Some of them thought that they should be kept for the time being. After all, the situation in Purgatory was still unclear. Using the Insectoids as the Federation's moat to defend against Purgatory's invasion seemed to be a very good idea.
However, some of them thought that the Insectoids' talents were too terrifying, and they should be destroyed before the Federation had the ability to do so.
In short, no one could convince anyone, and the matter was stuck in a stalemate. Know …
Lin Fan and Lin Yu participated in the latest meeting of the Federation's core management through remote communication!
In the virtual conference room, other than the leaders of the Federation's various departments, Lin Yu also made an exception to participate.
Originally, Lin Yu did not have the qualifications to participate in such a high-level meeting. However, Lin Yu had become the Federation's S-Rank dark energy manipulator.
Therefore, as the Federation's current highest combat power, Lin Yu had also obtained the corresponding special qualifications.
The main topic of the meeting was still the topic that had been discussed several times without a conclusion …
The question of keeping or destroying the Insectoids!
In the beginning, Lin Fan was definitely leaning towards keeping the Insectoids and using them as the Federation's first line of defense.
However, Lin Fan's thoughts had changed now …
"Alright, everyone is here. Let's begin!"
"Lin Fan, this time, we specially asked you to participate in the meeting through remote communication because we want to hear your opinions as the frontline commander. After all, we're only listening to reports from the rear, so it's inevitable that there will be some errors in our judgment!"
After everyone was seated, as the host of the meeting, Lin Zhen looked around and said to Lin Fan.
"This question, whether it's keeping or destroying them, there are drawbacks to both!"
"Indeed, the insectoids' innate talents are terrifying, especially their ability to obtain the genes of other powerful species to evolve themselves, and even use this to breed even more powerful combat insectoids. Just based on this point alone, this race is more powerful than any of the biological civilizations we've encountered in the Purgatory. From the fact that the insectoids only have one rank 7 insectoid, several hundred rank 6 insectoids, and the rest are rank 3 to 5, we can see that they're able to resist the Purgatory army."
Lin Fan sorted out his thoughts and said what was on his mind.
When the insectoids first fought with Ipnos' Purgatory Legio I, both sides had fought for a long time.
It should be known that in the 1st Legion of Ipnos, there were over 30 Type 7 beings, and over a billion Type 6 beings. There were even more Type 5 beings.
But what about the insectoids?
Other than Aliya who was a Tier 7 individual, the rest of the Tier 1 King Bugs could be classified as Tier 6 individuals. The rest were Tier 3 to Tier 5 individuals.
Based on the data on paper, the insectoids should not be able to resist at all.
However, in reality, the insectoids under Aliya's command had fought with the Purgatory army under Ipnos for an entire year, and they had only been pushed back repeatedly. They had not been able to crush the insectoids completely.
Although part of the reason was due to the number of insectoids, the more important reason was the variety of combat insectoids and the special abilities of these combat insectoids.
In other words, if the insectoids under Aliya's command were able to reach a level similar to the Purgatory army on paper, then Ipnos' side would definitely be crushed.
"In this war against the Purgatory army, the insectoids have captured a Tier 7 leader, and who can guarantee that Aliya has not secretly obtained the remains of other Tier 7 leaders?"
"Everyone should be able to imagine what Aliya will do after obtaining the genes of these powerful creatures."
"To put it bluntly, if we don't take action now, we will definitely face a terrifying race that is countless times stronger than the current one in ten or twenty years."
"Lastly, in the report we submitted previously, Lin Hong of Alfate once said that the ancient Alfate race, which is the current human race, was the most perfect existence in the universe. Now, with Aliya's continuous evolution, she is approaching the template of the human race in all aspects!"
"The feeling I get from this is that it's evolving into the most perfect species in the universe. Once it reaches the end of its evolution, I'm afraid we'll have to pay a huge price to destroy the Zergs!"
Following Lin Fan's narration, everyone in the virtual conference room had a solemn expression, especially when Lin Fan said that she was constantly evolving toward the most perfect species in the universe. This caused everyone's expression to change drastically.
Everyone knew what this meant.
Emil had once said that the main reason the insectoids only had Aliya, a Rank 7 individual, was because the insectoids were born with many flaws. To be able to evolve into an Insectoid Queen was already an overflowing talent.
Once Aliya used the genes of those powerful purgatory creatures to correct the innate flaws of the entire race, a Rank 7 insectoid would no longer be an unreachable existence. Aliya would then be able to break through the innate limitations of her race and evolve into a Rank 8, Rank 9, or even …
In short, this race must not be allowed to live!
In the conference room, everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination. Even those who supported the idea of using the insectoids as a moat for the Federation began to support the idea of exterminating the insectoids immediately!
However, Lin Fan's next sentence left everyone completely dumbfounded!
"But … we can't exterminate the insectoids now. For now, they are still the best way for us to resist the purgatory army!"
"After all, our Du Yu Purgatory's information network is too small. If we rashly go against them, it'll be very easy for problems to arise. If we don't handle it well, we'll pay a huge price!"
"At this time, if the insectoids are at the frontline for us, they can also test the enemy's strength at the same time. Wouldn't that be great?"
Everyone nodded. Everyone in the conference room nodded in agreement.
Although we all admit that what you said just now is very reasonable, but …
Why are you the one who said that we can't let the insectoids, but you're the one who said that we should let the insectoids continue to be our moat?
Isn't that a waste of time?
Should we keep them or exterminate them?
The big shots continued to be dumbfounded …
