Chapter 2308 - 2309: Recognition! (Second Update)
On this day, it was a significant occasion for the people of Atlantis, as the historical division was finally coming to an end.
At least for Mo Kada, Sevilla, and others, it was so.
They had unwavering faith in Ye Qiu’s strength, believing that victory would surely tilt in their favor with Ye Qiu present.
Today, not only Mo Kada and Sevilla donned their battle armor, but even the Prophet changed his clothes, heading together to the rebel headquarters for the final showdown.
Various battleships soared into space, forming lines and creating a fleet of warships.
The morale of the people was high, all departing with confidence.
As countless battleships launched, everyone’s destination became the rebel headquarters.
It was unclear how much time had passed.
The journey was unobstructed, without any appearance of the rebel battleships, finally reaching the rebel headquarters.
However, the rebel headquarters did not present the imagined scene.
Their battleships remained on the surrounding planets, yet to be activated. It was unlikely that the rebels were unaware of their arrival; one could even guess.
However, the rebels’ reaction, aside from initially summoning reinforcements from other bases, showed no other movements.
Especially now, the quietness of the rebel headquarters seemed excessively tranquil.
Mo Kada, Sevilla, and others exchanged glances, knowing without a doubt that something was amiss.
Otherwise, the other side seemed too calm.
Could it be that Ye Qiu’s arrival had completely subdued the rebels, causing them to surrender instantly without a fight?
That result seemed somewhat unrealistic.
The Prophet furrowed his brows at this moment, as the overly quiet appearance of the rebel headquarters made it impossible to figure out.
Ye Qiu gazed ahead, not rushing to act, as he saw figures emerging from the headquarters.
Leading them was a middle-aged man, appearing rather rugged, with a face full of muscle, yet his presence could not be ignored.
Simply standing there, one could feel his inherent status, undoubtedly a person accustomed to high positions.
Ye Qiu merely glanced at this person, but was constantly watching the elder standing beside him.
Because in his heart, he felt that this seemingly harmless and powerless elder exuded a sense of danger.
At this moment, Mo Kada followed the Prophet over, stopping behind Ye Qiu, as the Prophet’s voice sounded: "General Ye, that person is their Prophet."
The rebel Prophet?
No wonder Ye Qiu sensed a peculiar aura from him; he, too, was a Prophet.
At this moment, the middle-aged man on the opposite side spoke: "Honorable guest, your grand arrival was not properly welcomed."
His gaze fell on Ye Qiu, with his words directed at Ye Qiu. As for the Prophet standing beside Ye Qiu, he didn’t seem to care much, clearly placing Ye Qiu above the Prophet.
However, as his gaze swept over the Prophet, a hint of surprise quickly flashed by.
Because he didn’t expect that the poison on the Prophet had healed, otherwise, with the Prophet’s poisoned state, he shouldn’t appear here.
As for why he suddenly recovered, even a fool could deduce it was connected to Ye Qiu.
After all, before Ye Qiu’s appearance, they were the advantageous side.
The man didn’t show deep hostility, instead, welcoming them with a smile, even knowing that Ye Qiu and the others were here to confront him, he remained courteous.
Mo Kada, Sevilla, and the others frowned, as this didn’t match the man’s character.
However, it didn’t take long before they understood the reason behind this.
"The honorable guest is so young, truly a dragon among men. If the honorable guest is willing, I hope you would sit with me here. I believe what they have, I must have here as well. If the honorable guest nods, I will not refuse."
These words were obvious enough; he was trying to recruit Ye Qiu right in front of them.
"Despicable." Sevilla cursed under his breath, not expecting the rebel leader to offer great benefits to sway Ye Qiu to their side.
Without Ye Qiu’s assistance, how could they triumph over the rebels?
No wonder not a single battleship had been raised; this was intended to resolve the current crisis in the safest way possible.
However, Sevilla was puzzled about one thing: hadn’t the rebels considered that if they couldn’t win Ye Qiu over, they would be in danger?
Or did they have great confidence in winning over Ye Qiu?
Thinking of this, Sevilla couldn’t help but become a little worried.
He glanced at Mo Kada, whose expression mirrored his own, as they both considered this point.
Yet the Prophet standing beside Ye Qiu showed no signs of worry, even when the opposite side tried to recruit Ye Qiu right in front of them. On the contrary, the smile on his face grew wider.
"Seems like you hold me in high regard." Ye Qiu chuckled, without agreeing or disagreeing.
"The honorable guest is a young talent, I wish to become friends with the honorable guest. At present, it only remains to be seen whether the honorable guest is willing?" The man continued to probe.
"Haha." Ye Qiu laughed heartily, suddenly quieting down, speaking calmly: "But I don’t have many friends."
"So does the honorable guest wish to be friends with those beside you, or accept me as a new friend?"
"Being my friend offers no benefits. See my old friend here," Ye Qiu said, glancing at the Prophet beside him, continuing: "Precisely because he became my friend, even our races started to divide. I don’t intend to harm you, this is for your own good, don’t you think?"
"Haha, the honorable guest truly considers my well-being. Seems like we are still not destined to be friends; thus, we can only be adversaries." The man sighed.
Ye Qiu shrugged: "Indeed, it seems being adversaries suits us better."
"Then there is no other way. Since the honorable guest doesn’t want to befriend me, let’s resolve this matter."
With that, the leader clapped his hands.
Suddenly, the void was torn, revealing figures suspended in space, all holding advanced technological weapons.
The man continued, "I know the esteemed guest possesses exceptional strength. If you came in person, even if we had more battleships, we wouldn’t be your match. However, I have many friends. When my friends heard of such a formidable adversary as you, they became very interested."
With that, a figure emerged from the void.
As this figure appeared, both the Prophet, Mo Kada, and Sevilla frowned.
Because the appearance of this person was too peculiar, with a faint metallic sheen and a mechanical body; it was evident that they were from the mecha race.
So, the real reason behind the rebel leader’s calmness was the assistance from the mecha race.
Instantly, they all began to worry for Ye Qiu.
The mecha race, their strength is truly extraordinary!
