Chapter 2616: Alliance Established
Noah and Man Ti did not merely represent themselves; they represented the races behind them!
Now that several Star Devourers appeared simultaneously in the meeting room, they were sending an extremely strong signal!
They had united!
The race representatives present widened their eyes in shock, too stunned to utter a single word, their hair standing on end!
One must know that among those present were four of the Top Ten Sequences, and three of them were colossal powers ranking extremely high, plus humanity, which was a certainty!
Half of the future Sacred Law Council member races were right here!
Everyone who came to the meeting today was shrewd and understood perfectly well what this meant!
The third behemoth of the Starry Sky had been born!
Lingmiao, the representative of the Hidden Spirit Clan, swallowed hard:
Σ(°△°|||) "Southern God? You... you all..."
Jiangnan said bluntly: "I imagine you all are also curious why I, Jiangnan, went to such great lengths to summon you all here to discuss matters!"
"This is for no other reason than to announce the establishment of the Carbon Alliance and to convene the Alliance's first membership meeting!"
At this, no one in the venue could remain seated anymore; their scalps tingled!
Carbon Alliance?
With Jiangnan taking the lead and enlisting the support of four Top Ten Sequence races, just how strong would the Carbon Alliance be?
Only now did they realize that almost all the races present were indeed carbon-based!
Yang Jian added: "The core member races of the Carbon Alliance are tentatively set as seven: Humanity, Dark Cosmos Entity, Apocalypse Race, Gamma, Insect Race, Star Farming Clan, and Netherworld Race!"
"Alliance member races will advance hand in hand, facing together any hardships that may come in the future!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd in the venue exploded into an uproar!
The Son of God widened his eyes:
(๑ʘ̅口ʘ̅๑) "Huh? The... the Netherworld Race is also a core member of the Carbon Alliance? They've joined too?"
Lingmiao's expression changed drastically: "Isn't the Netherworld Race in the Minghe Star Domain? Are they going to be released? But aren't their abilities too dangerous?"
"Lord Noah? What exactly is going on?"
Noah crossed his arms and glanced at Jiangnan:
(￢↼￢◕) "Ask him~ He's the Alliance Master!"
Damn it, Jiangnan had everything prepared long ago, with both meeting venues set up simultaneously?
Was Jiangnan so confident that he could convince them and establish the Carbon Alliance?
In an instant, Noah felt a helpless sense of being seen through!
Jiangnan... was truly terrifying!
Everyone's eyes focused on Jiangnan again. Alliance Master?
Really? With so many powerful races united, yet the Alliance Master was Jiangnan?
Sigh~
Shengshi, the representative of the Jing Clan, couldn't help but speak:
(๑ớ﹏ờ) "Regarding the Netherworld Race..."
Jiangnan said indifferently: "I have nothing to say about this. The Netherworld Race will indeed be released and will become the main force of our Carbon Alliance in resisting the oppression of the Bose and Silicon."
"I don't want to repeat myself. Noah and the others said nothing and agreed to this move. Is it still necessary for you all to worry? They have considered far more than you have."
"I know why you all came today. With the Bose-Silicon War looming and the Starry Sky situation in turmoil, no race can escape unscathed. Everyone fears being torn apart by the coming storm."
"So you came to find a strong leg to lean on, a shelter that can shield your race from wind and rain. Isn't that so?"
After speaking, Jiangnan swept his gaze across the venue. All the race representatives smiled bitterly. Indeed, that was the case!
Jiangnan declared loudly: "I am afraid too! Not just you! But as the weak, facing the blade hanging over our heads, do we not have the right to survive?"
"Should the weak just die? Even the strong started as the weak! Facing threats, the only thing we can do is huddle together for warmth and advance hand in hand!"
"That is why the Carbon Alliance was established, and the Netherworld Race will become the sharp blade and the sturdiest shield in the Alliance's hands!"
"No one can stop us from continuing to exist! Survival is the instinct and right of every living being!"
Every single word was resolute and forceful. At this moment, the eyes of all the race representatives present lit up!
Even the Dark Cosmos Entity and the others had joined and approved of the Netherworld Race matter. When the sky falls, there are the tall ones to hold it up. That was indeed not a point for everyone to worry about!
They had come precisely to find a strong leg to lean on today!
But the leg they found seemed... too thick!
Jiangnan squinted: "Carbon-based life has always been the most looked down upon in the Starry Sky. But are we truly weak? I never believed that humanity is inferior to the Bose body!"
"In the Starry Sky Sequence, carbon-based races have always been at the back, oppressed. Anyone can reach out and squeeze us. Why?"
"Join the Carbon Alliance! The Alliance will become your strongest backing! Threats from the Bose and Silicon? We'll face them together! Racial crises? We'll get through them hand in hand!"
"The Starry Sky has never been a world for lone fighters. One person may not go far! But united, supporting and propping each other up, we will reach a place we have never reached before!"
"The fate of carbon-based life is about to be completely rewritten. No backing? Then we become our own backing!"
At this moment, whether it was the Son of God, or Lingmiao and Shengshi, all were emotionally stirred!
This was truly a pillow for the sleepy!
Just as everyone was feeling unsettled and powerless due to the terror of the Bose-Silicon War, the Carbon Alliance appeared!
If it really was as Jiangnan said, joining the Carbon Alliance would bring no small benefits!
At the very least, there would be something to rely on!
Shengshi couldn't help but express concern:
(￢﹏￢٥) "The establishment of the Carbon Alliance is indeed good news for everyone, but the Bose and Silicon will never tolerate such an event!"
"Will the Alliance's founding be strangled in the cradle?"
Jiangnan grinned: "There are indeed risks, but they are acceptable. Unity is strength; gather sand to build a tower. Don't underestimate yourselves either!"
"Once the Alliance is established, we can advance or retreat. The Netherworld Race is the blade, the Dimensional Gap is the backboard. No matter what, we have a path to take!"
"I know what you fear. You fear that joining the Alliance will anger the Bose and Silicon, leading to targeted retaliation and making an example of you. Am I right?"
"I can tell you this: if any member race of the Carbon Alliance is attacked by an external race, all Alliance member races will go all out to protect their safety and retaliate, advancing and retreating together!"
"If we can't even protect our own, what kind of Alliance is that? We are one hand. If anyone dares to cut a wound on my hand, I will smash ten punches into their face! Understood?"
"You all know very well how far I, Jiangnan, will go to protect my own!"
This point was essential. The safety of Alliance member races must be guaranteed. That was the foundation of the Alliance!
Shengshi clenched his fists, his heart surging!
If he joined the Carbon Alliance, an attack on his race would be met with the protection and collective counterattack of the entire Alliance?
One must know that the core member races of the Alliance were all extraordinarily powerful!
Plus, Jiangnan, a ruthless character notorious for his ferocity—this was a man who went to the Angel race and slaughtered them for half an hour right in front of their Star Devourer!
Jiangnan continued: "And this Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle is the opportunity! The Sequence War will no longer be the game of the big races!"
"I don't want points concentrated and flowing upward. I want the overall improvement of all member races of the Carbon Alliance! Only then can we further strengthen the Alliance's power and increase our say in the Starry Sky!"
"I'm laying it out here! In the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle, I'm not going to burn resources! I'm going to make money and climb up!"
"All member races will be under the protection of the Carbon Alliance, fighting jointly and advancing together. Let this Starry Sky witness just how hard the Carbon Alliance's fist is!"
"I'm asking you all: Are you joining this Carbon Alliance or not? Give me a straight answer!"
As soon as the words fell, the venue exploded!
Race representatives scrambled to stand up, pushing and shoving, shouting at the top of their lungs!
٩(๑•̀益•́๑)۶ "Join! I'll join right now! Whoever doesn't let me join, I'll be the one getting angry!"
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "Damn it! I've been wandering the Starry Sky for so many years and never met a thigh this thick! I'm latching on!"
"The rise of carbon-based life starts today! I'll charge first!"
For a moment, the scene was extremely lively, with everyone in high spirits!
They weren't stupid; they could naturally see the benefits of joining the Carbon Alliance!
Just the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle alone would bring dividends, and racial security would also be guaranteed!
Everyone knew the difference between one chopstick and ten chopsticks, a simple principle!
But in reality, truly uniting, joining forces, and advancing together was still very difficult!
Yet Jiangnan, through his connections and maneuvering among the major races, with his existing chips and his silver tongue, had somehow brought about this situation!
Jiangnan, parched, plopped down and hastily drank some tea:
(｡･ˇ₃ˇ･｡:) "Huff~ I'm exhausted!"
Noah, Man Ti, and the others couldn't help but look sideways at Jiangnan...
Perhaps Jiangnan's greatest strength was not really his power, but his temperament, foresight, vision, strategy—everything about him. That was what truly shone!
In the Starry Sky, there were many stronger than Jiangnan!
But someone like him, who could strategize and scheme with his own strength and single-handedly build the Carbon Alliance from nothing—maybe there was only Jiangnan!
Yang Jian was instantly overwhelmed by the flood of applications submitted by the various races:
(•́ω•̀٥) "Don't rush! Don't rush! Everyone gets a share! Hey hey hey~ Don't fight! What are you grabbing for?"
Immediately someone asked: "There's no limit, right? First come, first served? Are there any other conditions for joining the Carbon Alliance?"
Yang Jian smiled and explained: "This is just the Alliance's first membership meeting; there will be more later! But the earlier you join, the earlier you enjoy the benefits!"
"As for core member races, we won't expand for now. However, depending on the contributions of member races to the Alliance, we may expand appropriately later!"
"As for the conditions for joining, everyone present today has been strictly vetted, so naturally, you qualify to join. As long as you are carbon-based and share the same mindset as the Alliance, after vetting, you can all join the Carbon Alliance!"
It wasn't about fearing the scale being too big, but fearing it wasn't big enough!
Only when the Carbon Alliance's scale was large enough would it become increasingly unshakable!
