When Ducao finished, the entire arena fell silent.
Many people have just one sentence in their hearts.
"You're going to copy this too?"
Dukao's reporting structure is remarkably similar to Huang Ke's.
The ending, in particular, is full of classical allusions.
As an alien, it feels too incongruous to cite scriptures and allusions to that person.
It's like Dong Shi imitating Xi Shi (a famous Chinese poet known for her poor imitation).
The hall was completely silent; no one applauded.
After Ducao sat down, he looked at Huang Ke with a slightly stiff expression.
Huang Ke was also surprised by Dukao's remarks and was looking at Dukao with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot.
Huang Ke shook his head slightly and withdrew his gaze.
After a long silence, it was only when Elder Huang led the applause that the silence in the hall was broken.
The second part of the meeting then began.
All those who made outstanding contributions will be recognized.
The scientists from Beizhixing Aerospace Industry Group, brought by Huang Ke, were all radiant as they stood up to receive the awards and give brief speeches.
After the awards ceremony, the meeting concluded with its final agenda item.
The resources were reallocated.
However, the meeting will take a break for adjustments before this phase begins.
The ten leaders all gathered around Huang Ke.
"Mr. Huang, let's get this straight. What are your thoughts? We're all supportive."
"Yes, Mr. Huang, as long as you ask, we guarantee that Ducao won't get any resources."
Dukao, who had also gotten up to talk to Huang Ke, took a deep breath, pretended not to hear, and moved closer.
"Mr. Huang, would you like to talk?"

Through the gaps in the crowd surrounding him, Huang Ke looked at Dukao.
"General Dukao, I don't think we have much to talk about."
Huang Ke's stance has remained unchanged from beginning to end. Even if Dukao misunderstood today, Huang Ke still has nothing to communicate with Dukao.
Dukao's expression darkened slightly.
What does Huang Ke mean by this?
They just showed goodwill, and now they're acting like this?
This isn't a one-off meeting; don't forget that Huang Ke still has leverage over you.
Dukao felt like he was offering his warm welcome to someone who didn't reciprocate.
After a moment's thought, Dukao continued, "Mr. Huang, I have some information that I think you need to know about."
"According to observations from Deno III, the Taotie fleet has already taken action. A fleet of about two hundred warships and a flagship has left the vicinity of the Pluto Insect Bridge and docked on the moon."
"The war may start much earlier than you expect."
Ducao's voice wasn't loud, but everyone around Huang Ke could hear it clearly.
Everyone's expression changed slightly.
It was common knowledge that war was imminent.
But no one expected the war to come so quickly.
Huang Ke also looked at Dukao with some surprise.
So fast?
It has been less than a month since the establishment of the Super Soldier Company. According to the original historical process, Taotie's actions would not have been so fast.
From the first arrival of the Taotie vanguard on Earth to the start of the war, there should have been a full two hundred days.
The Super Soldier Company also took advantage of this gap to complete its initial training and acquire a certain level of combat capability.
"Mr. Huang, can we talk now?"
Ducato extended another invitation.
This time, Huang Ke did not refuse and nodded, but did not get up, clearly indicating that he did not intend to have a private conversation with Ducao.
Ducao, being quite sensible, squeezed into the crowd.
Upon approaching Huang Ke, Dukao went straight to the point: "Mr. Huang, what are your thoughts on the upcoming war? How about we shake hands and make peace for now, and unite against the common enemy?"
Ducao no longer wants to go head-to-head with Huang Ke.
Dukao realized that it was extremely unwise of him to be at odds with Huang Ke on Earth.
Huang Ke has the advantage of playing at home.
Using conventional political means to confront Huang Ke is completely pointless.
There is only one way to regain the initiative.
It means firmly holding high-end combat power in our own hands and maximizing the sense of identity among the soldiers of the Super Soldier Company.
No matter how much Huang Ke tries, once he develops the second-generation super gene in a short period of time, that's the end of it.
By the time Huang Ke develops the second-generation super gene, Galaxy Force and Nox War God will probably have fully matured.
Back then, Huang Ke didn't have the final say on the Earth.
Against the backdrop of the global crisis, even if Huang Ke was able to gain a temporary advantage, he could not stop the Galactic Force from becoming the supreme god with its overwhelming power.
As long as Ge Xiaolun, Liu Chuang, and Qiangwei can accept the Denu people, Huang Ke's opinion will be completely insignificant in the future.
Ducao was clearly unaware that Huang Ke had unusually accepted angel investment, and the research and development of the second-generation super gene had completely entered the fast lane.
Perhaps it won't be long before the second-generation super gene is implemented.
"How does General Dukao plan to deal with the Taotie?"
Huang Ke did not answer Dukao's question, but instead focused on Taotie.
Without hesitation, Dukao replied, "The Super Soldier Corps is far from reaching its peak combat capability. We must shift the battle line to the surface, extend the Taotie civilization's battle line, and buy time for the Super Soldier Corps to grow."
Yes, delaying the process.
Dukao does not believe that Earth civilization has the ability to fight the Taotie head-on.
They can only rely on the surface environment for cover to weaken the Taotie's destructive weapons.
Let super soldiers train through combat and sustain their combat capabilities through combat.
Besides these, Ducao had other ulterior motives.
Once the battlefield is set on the ground, the only force truly capable of inflicting enough damage on the Taotie is the Super Soldier Company.
After the war began, the Super Soldier Corps was able to achieve successive victories, increasing its influence almost without limit.
This will be of great help to the Galactic Force or the God of War of Nostar in the future becoming a supreme god.
It can be said that the appearance of the Taotie greatly helped Dukao advance his plan, allowing the Deno people to take control of the Earth and realize the reincarnation of the Deno civilization.
After hearing Dukao's answer, Huang Ke remained silent for a moment before saying to Dukao, "My thoughts are somewhat different from General Dukao's. After this conference, I will report to Elder Huang and, through the Black Wall Committee, revise the battle plan."
"General Dukao, please return. We don't need to exchange too much information today."
Taotie's actions disrupted some of Huang Ke's plans, but also gave him new ideas.
Dukao frowned, unable to grasp Huang Ke's thoughts, and could only retreat for the time being.
The ten leaders around Huang Ke all expressed their concerns.
"President Huang, the new equipment developed by Beizhixing Aerospace Industry Group has just been put into production. If war breaks out suddenly, the number of equipment may be severely insufficient."
"If Dukao's plan is followed, it will likely be a huge disaster."
"This shifts the risks and costs onto the people; Dukao's intentions are despicable."
"But besides Dukao's method, do we really have any other means to deal with the invasion of the Taotie civilization?"
The ten leaders had different thoughts, but their beliefs were pure enough that their ultimate goal was to protect China and the Earth.
"There's no need for you all to be too anxious. I will provide a battle plan after today's meeting."
"Shifting the risks and costs onto ordinary people is a last resort and should not be done unless there is a desperate situation."
Huang Ke strongly disagreed with Ducao's approach.
I've worked so hard since I transmigrated, if I have to take such measures again, wouldn't it be a waste of my time?
Huang Ke's words acted like a stabilizing force, quickly calming everyone's emotions.
The ten leaders temporarily suppressed their anxiety and focused their attention on the last item on the agenda of the meeting.
But considering that Ducao is close enough.
Everyone sat back down and took out their phones.
In the group chat for the "Top Ten Military Industries," the ten leaders began exchanging information.
"Mr. Huang, could you please give us your opinion? We'll discuss resource allocation later. Do we still need to continue suppressing Ducati?"
"Mr. Huang, we're a little unsure about your attitude today. Could you let us know so we can prepare accordingly?"
Although the discussion moved to a group chat, for Dukao, it was not much different from talking to him face to face.
Even though the group chat was protected by security software, it couldn't stop Deno III from spying on it.
