The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 671 Two Sides
Seeing that the other party's answer was irrelevant, Kas didn't care, since he didn't expect to get an answer from the other party in just a few words.

He naturally found a stool and sat down. Whether it was because the ground was uneven or the stool itself was faulty, it was a bit unstable and made a clattering sound.

Both men fell silent for a moment, then simultaneously overlooked this point. They already knew this place was dilapidated, didn't they? Amidst the chaos of war and gunfire, everything here was in ruins; even the ground leading to the fortified tower was riddled with potholes, making it arguably the worst-preserved of all the fortified towers.

Anyway, things are already like this, and all the supplies have been moved out. Fighting for this spot is just about fighting for a strategic location. We don't really expect this place to be able to shield us from cannon fodder, so we'll just make do with it.

Between the branch commander guarding a dilapidated tower and the guerrilla commander leading a group of people who had no fixed abode, it was hard to say who was worse off.

"Didn't you rush to the front? What are you doing back here? Could it be..." The person standing in front of the sand table had already strolled back to his seat, glanced at the uninvited guest, and said leisurely, "Are you scared too?"

"What are you planning to do?" Kas asked, seemingly trying to change the subject.

"No way, you're not really scared, are you?" The man frowned, unaware that he had subconsciously straightened up and adopted a tense, guarded posture.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm asking what you plan to do? Don't tell me you're just going to deal with 011 in this confused state. I bet you'll surrender without anyone even lifting a finger." Kass scoffed lightly.

So he came to inquire about information... The other party immediately relaxed and reverted to his usual nonchalant attitude.

"Come on, come on, what can we do?" The other party gave an answer that wasn't really an answer.

“Don’t think I’m as easy to fool as those people. What exactly did Yara say?” Kas wasn’t buying his act of pretending to be stupid and went straight to the point.

"You're really impolite, swaggering in and out of other people's territory without their permission, and asking them questions without any manners. Fine, I'm too lazy to argue with you..." The other person rolled their eyes.

"And I'm just telling the truth. Whether you believe me or not, you can't force me to say anything even if you put a knife to my throat," the man said shamelessly.

This is not good... He doesn't get along with this person, but he also knows a bit about him and knows that he is not the kind of person who hides his true intentions.

Moreover, although the two of them have some minor conflicts and different ideas, they share common interests and have the same starting point, so there is no need for them to harm each other.

If he says no, then no; if he doesn't know, then he really doesn't know.

So Yara really didn't reveal anything, and she was temporarily doing nothing about the 011 attack. Does that mean she's treating these hundreds of people on the front lines as expendable pawns?
Chaos ensued; everything was in chaos. He felt that the events that had occurred within just a few weeks had completely overturned his understanding and composure, leaving him somewhat at a loss as to how to cope.

But as chaotic as it may be, we still need to keep asking the questions. We can't have come all this way for nothing, can we?
“Then I won’t make things difficult for you. Tell me exactly how many people 011 brought. You should have a number, right? If you don’t even know that, I will immediately lead my people away from here without hesitation. You should know that this huge inner area is not just commanded by Yara alone.”

"Huh? No, what you're saying is—you plan to stay here?" The other person seemed somewhat surprised and uncertain.

"Yes, I won't be going out anymore. I've brought the others back with me. You can make the arrangements." He didn't deny it, but affirmed it lightly.

"My God, are you serious? I never expected you to have any sense of teamwork. I thought you'd be out there alone until the end." The man exclaimed in surprise. "...Stop talking nonsense, I just want an answer."

"Forget it, you're still so easily amused. To be honest, what I know isn't entirely accurate either, but Yara told me that Xilai has moved almost every single base tower, and they've probably taken everything they could. There will definitely be a lot of people coming, maybe... more than all of us combined."

That means there are at least four hundred people, and they will definitely be traveling in mechs. They're not friendly; this is going to be a tough battle.

Koyala offered no comment or clear instructions, seemingly tacitly allowing her subordinates to act freely. Had she truly given up on this place?

Kashi frowned, several thoughts flashing through his mind, but he couldn't connect them.

“You’ve been acting strange all day, looking worried. The Kas I know isn’t this indecisive… wait, why did you suddenly come back and ask for information? That’s not like you.”

"Kass, to be honest, you're not thinking of changing jobs, are you?!" 2856 looked suspicious. He was a straightforward person and didn't like playing games; he asked questions directly.

He glanced at the other person sideways, then turned back to the sand table, placing his hands on the edge of the platform as if he were looking down over the entire inner area.

Although 2856 had a moment of doubt, he quickly realized that this guy was so arrogant that he didn't even take Yara seriously.

The two had worked together for a while, with Yara granting each other almost absolute freedom. Having finally maintained this balance, how could Yara possibly turn to another leader whose background he knew nothing about?

"Yeah, what am I thinking... You don't even think much of Yara, how could you possibly think much of a creature like Silai, whose emotions far outweigh his reason?"

"Let's get this straight, they'll make arrangements easily, but you—let me make this clear, I won't allow you to take my place. If you don't understand this, then take your people and leave. We can't tolerate someone like you here," 2856 warned.

"Who wants to deal with those good-for-nothings under your command?" he sneered.

The two seemed to have reached some kind of consensus.

But no one knew... Kas, who was facing away from 2856, had his palms, which seemed relaxed and casual, resting on the sand table. His expression was hidden in the shadows, half obscure and half intriguing.

The other party even asked him if he wanted to defect to the enemy. It was too late. 2856 probably didn't expect that he had already defected to the enemy, although he was forced to, but he did indeed switch sides—and the other party's feeling was indeed correct.

But it's too early to say which side he's on. Things are work, and it's not entirely unchangeable.

Kashi is not the kind of person who waits passively for others to decide her fate.

Life is not easy. If you're going to do something, you should be the one in control, the one who wields the power. You should be able to control not only your own destiny but also the destiny of others. That's what he should strive for.
