514. Go or stay
After hearing Zasna's words, Marne looked a little shaken. The Flesh Titan was not surprised by this. After all, the information she revealed was still very shocking to this ordinary modern abilities.
Mar En did show a hesitant expression:
"What do you mean by what you said? What impact will my arrival have on humanity?"
Zasna said:
"My mother wanted to persuade other Titan kings to change their strategies for humanity, and in her opinion there was no easier way than through contact with humanity, so she could say she has been waiting for your arrival all these years."
When Mar En heard this, he was a little confused:
"Have no humans appeared here before?"
Zasna replied:
"Yes, but without you, how can I say...
"In fact, we have never had very high expectations for humans who have entered this place, but even so, most of the humans encountered by mothers are not suitable for examples. If they are brought to other Titans, they will only strengthen their determination to launch a war of slaughter against humans.
"But you are different from them. Although I have only seen a few meetings, I have already seen your extraordinaryness. You are even better than the kind of human my mother expected to meet at first, and it is almost the perfect display object.
"You're so good as a titan."
Maren didn't know what she said about Titan bags, and did not include appearance conditions, nor did she understand the specific conditions. After all, she has not shown any outstanding quality these days, or is it actually her so-called good standard is very low.
He also showed a somewhat flattered expression:
"Is that so? But I think I'm just a very ordinary person?"
Zasna smiled:
"It would be better if you think so, because it proves that humans are still very good overall. My mother still has no mistakes in their impression of them. My mother always says that the humans who have entered here over the years have made her somewhat doubt her past memory of her human compatriots."
Mar En said in some confusion:
"So we're going to find other Titan Kings?"
Zasna shook her head, her expression slightly deeper:
"It would be great if it were just like this, but now we are facing a very serious problem, that is, my mother, the ninth reincarnation king, is not in a state of waking up.
"She had a conflict with the Fifth King because of his ideas a few decades ago. This Titan King scoffed at my mother's idea of turning most humans into flesh-blooded titans. His opinion was that humans had no need to survive, and if they wanted to defeat the gods, they would not have any mercy or sympathy for you.
"I even heard that they had conflicts before they turned into flesh and blood titans, and even at that time they wanted to exclude each other from this plan, so naturally their conflicts grew intensified decades ago and developed to the point of head-on combat.
"So they fought many times over the years, and the final result so early was that their mother and the fifth king had several spare bodies destroyed, and they also got a draw.
"And after that, my mother and the fifth king fell into a deep sleep and began to repair their bodies, and we should not bother her unless there was anything particularly important."
Maren said:
"But now it's a special situation."
Zasna nodded:
"That's right, but the problem lies here. It's logical that I should wake up my mother directly, but when I went to the Sleeping Tower, I was stopped by the city's strategy officer. He claimed that he did not trust humans and directly rejected my proposal to wake up my mother, and asked me to prove that you deserve him to do so."
Mar En showed a puzzled look:
"Do you have no right to do this directly?"
"Of course I have this power." Zasna also said frankly in the face of his temptation, "As the chief strategic officer of Ninth City, he also has the power to make decisions when city security is threatened.
"And his decision to temporarily deprive me of this ability is completely reasonable. If we want to solve this problem, we have to come up with evidence that convince others that it is worth waking up my mother in advance now - even if this will cause her new body to not be so perfect."
Maren said:
"So what I have to do is cooperate with you to make them believe that I am a qualified human being?"
Zasna nodded:
"Yes, and there is one thing I haven't told you, that is, your return may not go as smoothly."
This sudden news was a surprise to Mar En. This sentence solved the problem of what excuse he was looking for to stay here to explore the Titan weapon, and he immediately showed a look of surprise.
"What does it mean?" said Marne. "Didn't you just say I can stay here? Is it because you told me the reason why Titans are going to deal with humans?"
Zasna immediately shook her head and clarified:
"Of course it has nothing to do with this. On the contrary, I told you about this because I knew that you might not be so easy to leave here, otherwise I would definitely tell you the specific risks before I said it.
"Although the Chief Strategy Officer Carlett, whom I just mentioned, is his mother's subordinate, he does not particularly agree with his mother's concept. In fact, this cannot be entirely blamed. He has agreed with his mother's opinion before.
"But several of the minions of the gods who had been involved in the Ninth City as humans caused considerable casualties during his tenure. The spies of Serrah mastered the disguise beyond our understanding at the time. When we were pursuing them, many innocent people died because of this, including a friend of Carlett for decades.
“He has since been extremely opposed to his mother’s proposal, but out of loyalty he has never spoken about it in public, nor has he expressed such a view, but his mother has noticed his changes.
“He even tried to step down as a strategic officer several times since then, but he was the most trusted and capable subordinate of his mother, and returned to this position on the eve of her sleep.
"He can also handle almost any problem perfectly, except for things involving humans. My mother didn't expect that humans would enter in such a short time before she fell asleep. We had blocked all the channels.
“So we are a little embarrassed now.
"He now doubts that you are also a spy sent by a god. The so-called mistaken entry is actually a carefully planned coincidence, so he is likely to want to execute you immediately. He is not very rational in this matter."
Maren said:
"Since that's the case, I have no other choice but to agree, right?"
Zasna looked at him and said:
"No, if you really want to leave and don't want to get involved in this kind of thing, you can tell me that I will try to protect you and find a way to prove your innocence, but I think the possibility of success of both approaches is similar.
"Which one do you want to choose?"
Under Zasna's gaze, Marn was silent for more than ten seconds before speaking:
"You just mentioned saving humanity, right? Since we've all talked about this...
"Then I will play the role of the Gods and Sky Walker."
