Chapter 138

Unfinished product

Once Fei YuSheng and his father opened their mouth, everyone's attention was drawn to them.

A perfect solution was clearly going to draw the attention of everyone who was just arguing minutes ago. But even then, everyone here were foxes, sly ones at that. So, when they looked at the father and son duo, what appeared was not surprise but suspicion,

Even 'I' can't think of a solution but you two, who hadn't said anything got one? Are you kidding me?

Even with everyone's gaze on him, Fei QiangYu expression didn't change. All he did was turn towards the President and the higher ranks to say, "Fighting the beasts will only cause a difficult predicament. A war will disrupt the economical, political and cultural growth of a society. Even if we aren't thinking about the people, we would still have to consider the long term consequences of a drawn out war on society. Thus, we can't wager a war."

"As for those wanting a peaceful approve...We all seen what happened today. Even if we ignored the beast riot, the three Kings of the beasts and their hatred towards human is enough to destroy any form of peaceful negotiation. Not only that, the white Qilin was the one who initiated the war, so a peaceful approach is impossible."

Once Fei QiangYu stopped, everyone paused for a moment before chuckling, glaring and all kinds of mockery. The head of the Ye Family hated him enough to even roll his eyes, "Feather, did you hurt your head?" (Yu+Mao = Feather, the same Yu as in Fei QiangYu's name)

If fighting and negotiation was out of the picture,then what else was there? Negotiating while fighting?

Fei QiangYu paid no mind to YeYan's hatred, instead, he only reposted with one word, "Delay."

"Drag it out?" Old Long asked with an eyebrow raised, "You're saying to negotiate with the intention of dragging things out and keeping the fighting to a minimum, so as to not harm the innocent?"
"It's a good thought but you seen the situation outside, the beast's riot already caused chaos for every Star. We don't have the liberty of dragging things out."

Old Long's word really struck at the heart of the issue. Everyone knew that in this war, humans were already at a disadvantage. There was about four to six times more beasts than humans, although many were assistive beasts with no attack power. Those who could actual fight were about a tenth of the human population, but within that tenth, there was some really powerful ones. Even though the adventurer's guild and hunter's association has a lot of powerful members, if you actually paired up a level A beast to a level ten hunter, it would be a two hit k.o. If it was a level A corrupted beast, then it would be a one hit k.o.

Although, there was only known to be a thousand or so level A beasts, while level ten hunters, amongst other high level humans can add up to a hundred thousand. But in an actual fight, the a thousand beasts would definitely win against ten thousand humans. However, humans had high tech, like laser and ion, these weapons of mass destruction, so they still stood a chance. But, the issue was that they were at the capital star, which was perfect for human habitation. So even if the humans won, once they used these weapons, the capital star would become uninhabitable.

The most problematic issue was that beasts are hundreds of times better than humans at surviving and adapting to horrible environments. Outside the capital star was ten barren stars of which 7,8,9, and 10 were absolutely desolate. However, 4,5,6 was were the majority of the corrupted beasts came from, but humans rarely touched. As for 2, and 3, those were for the poorest of poor, and 1 had something they wouldn't dare to touch.
