Chapter 410 - 409: Layers of Insider Information
Constant Star Unrivaled said: "Wandering, let me be frank with you, the reason we attacked the Wandering Alliance initially was actually because we had reached an agreement with Metal Civilization."
Wandering coldly laughed and said: "Constant Star Unrivaled, do you really think I’m an idiot? So easily deceived? Using such a low-level reason to sow discord, if you want to find a reason, couldn’t you find a more clever one?"
"You don’t believe it? Don’t you find that war back then strange?" said Constant Star Unrivaled.
Wandering responded: "What’s strange about it? Back in the asteroid belt, the Wandering Alliance had already encountered and had conflicts with the Bee Clan Civilization. Later, they targeted the Wandering Alliance too for plundering resources. Whether from the perspective of revenge or plundering resources, it all makes sense. Why should I believe you?"
"The Wandering Alliance indeed had interactions with the Bee Clan Civilization, but to be honest, those can hardly be called conflicts. The Bee Clan Civilization did not have to fight to the death with a civilization that was on equal footing, especially since the universe had not faced the crisis of ceasing to expand at that time, and every civilization had many choices. Thus, the Bee Clan had a somewhat lacking motive. The reason they still went to war with you was under my orders, and I, in turn, had an agreement with Metal Civilization. Also, aren’t you curious how the Bee Clan Civilization found your location? They couldn’t possibly have been tailing you since the asteroid belt, could they?" Constant Star Unrivaled said.
Now that he mentioned it, that was indeed a bit strange.
Wandering said: "Even if what you say is true, it doesn’t change the fact that you’re trying to sow discord. Moreover, a few words are not enough to prove what you’re saying is fact. Metal Civilization had no motive for such actions; they had the power to attack the Wandering Alliance on their own at that time. Furthermore, if you had really reached an agreement, why would a war break out now? All signs are inconsistent with what you’re saying."
"If you have the patience, I can slowly unfold that interesting story for you," Constant Star Unrivaled said.
Wandering replied: "You’ve successfully piqued my curiosity, so I might as well listen to what you have to say, but it had better be true."
Constant Star Unrivaled said: "In the midst of the war, there’s no need for me to lie. I just see you being kept in the dark, still desperately fighting for Metal Civilization, like being sold and still helping others count their money. I’m just feeling a little sorry for you in that regard."
Wandering replied: "Cut the crap and get to the point!"
Constant Star Unrivaled began his story: "Actually, our Titan Civilization and Metal Civilization have known about each other’s existence for quite some time but never interacted much, like keeping to our own waters. Later, an envoy from Metal Civilization came to Titan Civilization, indicating they wanted to collaborate just this once. Initially, Metal Civilization was unwilling to reveal the true reason for the cooperation, but I realized there was more than meets the eye. So, without knowing the true reason, I couldn’t judge the value of this collaboration and didn’t agree. Later, Metal Civilization had no choice but to come clean about the real reason – they wanted to seize a Metal Planet from the Wandering Alliance..."
