BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1901 Settling The Meeting
Maya gritted her teeth while closing her eyes, listening to how people wanted Rea to step down. She never expected them, including her and Agata, to be fooled by Rea.
It seemed Rea became Theo's disciple for a reason.
'To fool your enemies, you have to fool your allies first, huh…' Maya muttered inwardly before glancing at the people.
She stated, "I have to ask Agata first. Give me a minute."
Without hesitation, Maya walked a bit further from the room and called Agata. Obviously, it was just a fake call as everything had been arranged by Theo previously.
It seemed that Rea actually used Theo's arrangement for inspiration. Since she wasn't the leader and they wanted other people to think Theo was with them, she could easily escape by demotion.
So, these people were completely tricked by Rea.
After two minutes, Maya finally returned to the room with a grim expression. Her face alone showed that it wasn't an easy decision.
Maya took a deep breath as if he was disappointed with the situation. But she had no other way to convince these people.
"Alright. We shall accept the suggestion. From now on, the leader shall be Felix, Theo's right hand man. And Agata will be the one to supervise the entire battle. She might not be at Theo's level, but she gave solid advice, considering she had worked multiple times for the governments after the apocalypse.
"And Rea will become another adviser, but her main role shall be on the battlefield. So, the instructions you get mainly will come from Agata."
These were the roles they had been assigned before even the meeting. There wasn't a change or anything.
However, the others didn't know anything about their assignments. They only thought Rea was the leader and had been demoted to a fighter on the frontline.
Now that they had received everything they wanted, there was no more objection coming from them.
"Since there are no more objections, I'm going to discuss the plan." Maya let out a long sigh before continuing. "At first, we're planning to make a hexagram to defend the base. But now that Rea will be deployed in the frontline, she'll become the seventh point."
She showed the hexagram and showed the 'new' update to the people. "This shall be the arrangement."
Everyone looked at the plans and was surprised. It seemed that they had misunderstood Maya and the others.
They thought they would be fighting on the very front, making them weakened. That way, Theo would have no problem crushing them.
But they were wrong. The ones who took care of the front were Theo's group. Even the Griffith Family handled the center.
"We'll be taking the front, which should receive the biggest damage. Meanwhile, I want the rest of you to expand your range to make sure no one sneaks in. It shouldn't be that hard, right?"
They weren't saying anything, so Maya continued, "Alright. Rea has been demoted now, so I expect your cooperation.
"In the middle point, the Griffith Family will be assisted by the Beggar Association. Still, I need a few of you to send your people here. The same applies to Rea's defense point. She will be accompanied by the people from my Star Group.
"As for Ava, she might be a monster, but she is the strongest Transcendent Level Expert in this base right now. And she has followed Theo for so long, so I don't doubt her ability. As for the commanding position, we have Ergene, who has a blessing from a famous general in history. She has received tips from Theo as well, so she will be a good commanding officer that will help Ava with the arrangement.
"As for the rest, you can see the respective Transcendent Level Experts that will supervise the entire operation.
"And so, this is our arrangement." Maya tapped the Skylink a few times before a few panels appeared in front of the points, listing the names that would be under those people.
As expected, Ava, Rea, and Ray were given to most people. Meanwhile, the others comprised half of their numbers, but they were expected to spread their range to make sure the attack didn't come through.
Considering they might not get attacked at all, there wasn't a lot of objection in everyone's mind.
"If you don't like the assignment, feel free to tell me right now. We'll try to change it based on the current situation. As for the military, you will be expected to send people and your commanders shall be supervising the entire battlefield. Make sure that they're not slacking.
"Provide us with enough evidence, we'll make sure to blacklist them from the training camp.
"As for the government, you will be providing us with the necessary support as well as the weapon. I'll, too, help provide the equipment, but don't expect much from a single company.
"This is the best arrangement we can give right now." Maya glanced at Rea, indirectly implying that this was the best plan after Rea was demoted.
For Theo's group to comply with their demands showed how severe the situation was.
That was why Maya had to add with a darkened expression, "And with this arrangement, I hope that none of you slack off. After all, this is the place you're living in. If you still find a way to escape the responsibility, then you should get the fuck out of this base.
"Also, Theo might be teaching you, but I'll surely put a score on your individual achievements. In other words, he might see that score and teach you according to your work. So…" Maya asked once again. "Does anyone want to change their position?"
The people were silent for a while as they looked at each other to know what each other was thinking.
Eventually, a few people raised their hands, dissatisfied with the arrangement.
Some groups actually wanted to move to safer areas as if they wanted to preserve their people. But some groups dared to move to a riskier area to get more achievement so that they would get more benefits from Theo.
