I Can Program My Body?-Chapter 452: Unexpected Partnerships

"Lord Eldora, can we ask if the Tier 4 Scientific Sage is still with your team?"

"No, unfortunately, Sage Muraguri already returned to the Chronos Empire. He should be serving under the command of the Chronos Saint." Eldora sighed.

A young Scientific Sage was an asset even the top team within the Chronos Empire couldn’t let go.

After fulfilling his agreement and getting the reward, Muraguri left the very same day.

"It’s a pity..."

Hearing the Scientific Sage was no longer with the Solaris Team, most couldn’t help but sigh.

Their interest also dimmed, disappointment settling in.

A Scientific Sage was equivalent to or even sometimes more valuable than a level 7 shelter.

Without Muraguri, the Solaris Team’s odds went down a notch.

"Any more questions?" Eldora asked, already expecting their reaction.

"No more, Lord Eldora."

"If that’s the case, then let me welcome the next speaker." Eldora smiled, inviting Vara from the Vortan Sector.

Standing on the stage, Vara began presenting all the advantages of the Vortan Team.

From their strength, achievements, investments, prospects, and more.

Hearing the formulaic speech, everyone just nodded, calculating how much they would invest.

Although weaker than the Solaris Domain, the share the Vortan Team was willing to part was bigger, reaching 70%.

Even with a bit of investment, they could already earn a lot.

After Vara, Blair, and Lionas went one after another, delivering almost the exact words as before.

Having similar strength, their proposals didn’t differ much.

Finally, under the anticipation of everyone, Elizabeth came to the stage.

Different from the other three, Elizabeth had the full backing of the entire Aqua Sector.

As a direct descendant of the Planetary Powerhouses from the Aqua Sector, the investment Elizabeth received should be sizable.

Indeed, as Elizabeth presented the Aqua team, gasps began to sound around.

Besides not having a level 7 shelter, the Aqua Team’s investment was even more than the Solaris Team’s.

"Princess Elizabeth is really different..."

Spoiled rotten by her grandfather and parents, if not for the rules, they might have directly accompanied Elizabeth to the Wild Void Territory.

"How much equity are you willing to share with us, Lady Elizabeth?" they asked, seeing she had finished speaking.

"Unfortunately, I don’t have anything to share with anyone."

"What do you mean?"

No matter how wealthy the Aqua Shelter was, they couldn’t cover all the needed investment to conquer a wild void territory.

Just the number of Tier 7 powerhouses and battleships needed was not something they could easily provide.

"It’s because I decided to join the Star Alliance." Elizabeth smiled.

Suddenly, as if a bomb had been dropped, everyone stood in a daze.

Did they just hear Elizabeth right? Join the Star Alliance?

"What are you talking about, Princess Elizabeth?!"

One of the great teams joining a little team’s alliance? Is this a joke?

"That’s right. I decided to lend my strength to forge a future with the Nova Team. Commander Nash, what do you say? Do you accept our little team?" Elizabeth turned to Nash with a smile.

"This girl..." Also stunned, Nash didn’t know what to say.

He hadn’t expected Elizabeth to reveal such a bomb in front of everyone.

Was his charm so great that it beguiled this girl?

Seeing all attention turned to him, Nash quickly composed himself.

"We welcome the Aqua Team joining the Star Alliance with open arms."

"That’s good~."

Getting down from the stage, Elizabeth walked toward Nash, as if asking for praise.

"You really gave me trouble." Nash sighed.

Knowing Elizabeth’s nature, she probably hadn’t consulted anyone before making such a decision.

Now, not only did he have to face pressure from the members of the Aqua Team, but more importantly, three Planetary Powerhouses might be after his head.

"Don’t worry, I’ll protect you!"

It might not look it, but Elizabeth’s genetic ability was related to luck and fortune.

Since Elizabeth was born, she hadn’t lacked anything, from money, power, or familial love. Anything she wanted would automatically fall into her lap.

Although her luck couldn’t be controlled actively, it gave her the ability to instinctively seek advantage in any circumstance.

Like in this coming final stage of the cosmic competition.

She felt the chances of her death had reached a terrifying 99%.

Yet, as she got closer to Nash, this chance slowly decreased.

Noticing this, against all odds, Elizabeth was determined to stick with this man.

Meanwhile, seeing the two flirt as if nothing had happened, everyone finally came to their senses.

It seemed Elizabeth was nothing but a lovestruck fool.

Gambling the wealth and fate of the entire sector just for a man, what a waste!

Shaking their heads, they looked toward the next presenter, Lorenzo.

Since the Aqua Shelter joined an alliance, all the equity and investment distribution could only be decided by Nash.

Filled with disappointment, they quickly forgot about Elizabeth.

"Hello, everyone. I’m Lorenzo Azad, the leader and representative of the Liberty Coalition Alliance."

"As everyone knows, our alliance is backed by hundreds of thousands of sectors. With teams numbered in the thousands!"

"For this conquest in the coming cosmic competition, I can only promise you one thing, our goal remains the same: create a free world where everyone is equal!"

Hearing Lorenzo’s speech, everyone was filled with shock.

Hundreds of thousands of sectors, thousands of teams, what a force to be reckoned with!

Although the quality of the forces backing them was not on par with the top teams, the quantity was enough to drown them.

Even if each of these sectors only contributed one tier 7 battleship or a powerhouse, it could already fill most of the Liberty Coalition Alliance’s quota!

Coupled with thousands of teams, they were basically forming a swarm to fight another swarm.

If managed carefully, the Liberty Coalition Alliance might not be worse off than those top teams in the entire Chronos Empire.

"What do you think, everyone? Who is willing to join me to create a free world?!" Lorenzo yelled like a frantic cult leader.

Filled with interest, the slight aversion they had to the Liberty Coalition Alliance decreased.

Investing in them seemed like a guaranteed result.

With abundant sectors and teams behind them, no matter how badly the Cosmic Competition went, they were guaranteed to get something.
