The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

The eastern part is a restricted area. For some reason, although there have always been people who wanted to occupy the mountain and become kings, and many people have infiltrated it... they would always move out to other areas after a while. Therefore, it has never been able to stand out and is almost entirely empty.

This is strange. Logically speaking, even the most barren places, like the western regions, should attract a lot of people. Moreover, places abandoned by powerful figures due to their poverty often become places where smaller leaders can infiltrate and grow stronger.

However, this area in the east is really strange; people come and go, and it's almost impossible for anyone to stay.

There was no official explanation for this matter, and those who came from there remained silent, which only fueled people's curiosity. So, as time went on, the absence of an explanation naturally gave rise to one.

Some say that the eastern area is a minefield, a place where one cannot settle; anyone who goes there dies. Therefore, all those who intend to approach the east have perished.

Of course, this claim is of dubious origin and not very rigorous; it merely adds a touch of mystery to the area, and no one knows the truth.

Excluding the unstable variables in the west, the southwest and southeast corners can be considered the second most pressing threat to the central region.

These two areas are not large, but they are the two most impregnable areas in the inner circle.

Although they are two sizable territories, they are not chaotic. From southwest to southeast, there are three major leaders: Yara, Shera, and K. Of course, someone who has secretly opened a rift between Yara and Shera, and who is about to tear off the mask of civility, is not yet known to the outside world, but it will happen soon.

Needless to say, Xi Lai was the first to rise to power in this area. He had a large and powerful army and a rich foundation, making him an extremely difficult opponent to deal with.

Yara, on the other hand, is a rising star. Although he is not yet as powerful as Serai, he has established a firm foothold and firmly occupies the southwestern corner.

There is also a completely unknown and mysterious southeastern corner, with very little information about the inner circle, surrounded like an iron barrel, with no information leaking out at all.

In addition, some forces caught in the middle and corners are also unknown bombs, and it is unknown when they will explode.

Therefore, from this perspective, both the southwest and southeast regions are extremely difficult to conquer. Everyone in the conference room was on high alert, as if they were facing not a distant enemy whose fate was currently unknown, but a formidable foe that would immediately attack.

Hearing the shouts from below that they should lead people to guard against them, L sneered and glanced at them without any emotion.

Yes, he doesn't really manage things; he mostly adjusts things according to the people's moods, since chaos can lead to chaos... but that doesn't mean he's a fool.

Do these guys really think he's clueless? Clearly, those in the north are more dangerous, yet they insist on exaggerating the dangers of the southeast and southwest forces, trying to lure people there. Do they really think he doesn't know that if they let them succeed, it'll be like throwing good money after bad—a complete waste.

This person may not have rebellious intentions, but it is true that they have been planning for themselves for a long time.

What's most ridiculous is that not only did this guy who treats people like idiots appear, but several other clueless individuals actually echoed him. Did these people plan this rebellion beforehand? L, on the other hand, never thought he had the charisma to subdue an opponent in such a short time. So far, he'd only seen one person with that ability, but even after all these years, L still couldn't figure out how that person did it.

Therefore, it's normal for people to betray you and do all sorts of underhanded things, as long as you can control things at the right time.

Because someone once told him... there is no one in this world who cannot be used, it depends on how you use them. Those who have ambition but no ability are the easiest to exploit.

He didn't accept the proposal, nor did he immediately take action to deal with the other party; he simply left them hanging. This made the others, who realized their words and actions were rash, immediately uneasy, but they could no longer interrupt and could only listen to L assign tasks one by one, avoiding them.

In the end, the guy who had first made the suggestion couldn't take it anymore and anxiously asked L if there was anything he could do.

What do they need you to do? Friend, have you forgotten that you just stepped on a landmine? They have reason to suspect that L skipped over these people with the intention of settling scores later, and they might be taken care of on the spot after the meeting.

However, the truth was... L glanced at the group with a strange look that made them uneasy, before asking, "Regarding the Southeast and the Southwest, do you have anything else to say?"

What else is there to say? What else could they possibly say? Now they understand. Their suggestion was nothing short of blatant betrayal, practically a suicide mission.

They had thought the other party was just a roughneck who only cared about fighting, but they didn't expect that his cold and expressionless face would be even more terrifying, making them feel like they had been stripped naked and seen through.

If they had previously harbored thoughts of deceiving and misleading the other party, they dared not do anything at this moment.

As for the other party asking them what their thoughts were on the southeast and southwest, there would naturally be plenty of opportunities for them to contribute. They could share some information that the other party didn't know, which would be a way to atone for their sins.

So the group quickly began to talk about the information they had gathered from Yara and Selai, about a possible third enemy standing between Yara and Selai, who might be an invisible enemy that had been lurking for a long time.

It's truly unbelievable. If they hadn't had solid inside information and sacrificed a few pawns, they wouldn't have believed that someone would actually dare to pluck the tiger's tail. Their skill in getting something for nothing is even more ruthless than theirs.

If they hadn't seen such a ready example, they wouldn't have had the sudden thought to propose such an unwise thing to L on the spot. Looking back now, it was really stupid.

Having put aside their ambitions for great undertakings, they quickly turned their attention to the third enemy who might exist between Yara and Serai, intending to alert L and prevent him from focusing on him.

Unexpectedly, L, who had been listening to their earnest speeches with a blank expression, neither expressing his opinion nor saying good nor bad, suddenly raised his eyebrows and his lips curled into a meaningful smile. This sounded so familiar...
