Chapter 262: Persuasion
Oz saw that Yang Le was lost in thought and knew that he hadn't yet figured out how to persuade himself and Bellicus. So, he suggested that before Yang Le came up with a method, he should first help deal with the matters between him and Bellicus.
That's right, it's all the disputes they've had since they were born until now. Perhaps every wielder of the Celestialsapien's Omnitrix would experience this kind of thing.
According to Bellicus, before Yang Le's main body arrived, his clone had already helped them deal with 105,040 controversial matters. Among them, Bellicus won 53,800, Oz won 51,100, and 140 matters were inconclusive, which Yang Le felt they were all wrong about.
Listening to these astronomical figures, Yang Le only felt his head spinning and increasingly felt sorry for his other self. No wonder even Albedo felt like he had survived a catastrophe after escaping.
Suddenly, he had the feeling of listening to roommates complaining about the people around them and their girlfriends in college. Isn't this just a large trash can?
Then Bellicus told Yang Le again that there were still about 100 million business matters between them waiting for him to judge, including even small matters like not moving a finger.
'The future is bleak!' Yang Le sighed in his inner heart. It was strange to say, even though Yang Le was now in his inner heart world, he could still talk to himself in his heart here.
Inner heart world within the inner heart world, it's getting a bit weird.
After roughly dealing with over a hundred business matters, Yang Le finally came up with a method, which was to first persuade one of them, at least to bring in a comrade.
Don't think Yang Le is brain-dead for taking so long to think of such a simple thing. After all, he was multitasking, helping the other two consciousnesses deal with their business matters.
His train of thought had been interrupted countless times, and Yang Le didn't dare to get angry. If he antagonized those two consciousnesses, it would be bad. After all, not everyone is Ben Tennyson, who can succeed by throwing a tantrum.
This was also thanks to the fact that the one Ben Tennyson vented his anger on was Serena, who represents compassion. If it had been Bellicus, who represents destruction and anger, the result might have been different.
'I have a plan, so next is to determine the goal.' Yang Le secretly sized up the other two consciousnesses.
Oz represents the voice of reason. He is difficult for others to sway his thoughts and is the most difficult type of person to persuade.
Compared to him, Bellicus, who represents the voice of destruction, is simpler to deal with because he at least has his own preferences. What Yang Le needs to do is to transform his own needs into Bellicus's needs and cater to his preferences to get his support.
'So how to cater to his preferences?' Yang Le multitasked, answering the questions of the two in his mouth, while thinking about a countermeasure in his heart.
'Destruction, conquest.' Yang Le's eyes rolled, and he felt he had already thought of a method.
"Okay, then the next problem now," Oz said loudly. "A planet outside the Solar System has experienced population expansion to the point where the use of ground area is extremely strained. What method should we use to help them?"
Bellicus said, "I advocate destroying it directly, so we don't have to worry about it."
Oz said, "I disagree with Bellicus's view. We should solve the problem more rationally, such as replicating an identical planet and letting them relocate there. What do you think, Yang Le?"
"I think we can consider this problem later," Yang Le said. "I have a better suggestion, which is about destruction."
"Oh, interesting," Bellicus grinned widely. "Alright, tell me your suggestion first."
Oz didn't speak, just quietly waited for Yang Le to speak.
"Just like I said before, this Multiverse is about to be destroyed."
"We've already discussed this topic before, and it's not approved," Bellicus frowned and interrupted Yang Le.
Yang Le, interrupted, was not annoyed, but instead said with a smile, "Don't rush, I haven't finished speaking yet. I'm not asking you to help me save the Multiverse, but to ask you to help me destroy the mastermind who is destroying the Multiverse."
That's right, to see business, you must see the root. The root of the Secret Wars big event is that the Beyonders want to use the entire Multiverse for experiment. Then Yang Le just needs to solve the Beyonders, right?
If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who created the problem. This is the ultimate answer of the cosmos.
"Please think carefully, Voice of Destruction," Yang Le spread out his hands towards Bellicus. "Destroying those who are preparing to destroy others, doesn't that prove that you possess a higher level of destruction?"
In fact, Yang Le didn't know what he was talking about. He didn't even know how he finished saying such a convoluted sentence, but he felt he had bet correctly.
"Oh, that sounds very interesting." Sure enough, Bellicus showed a longing expression. He then looked at Oz beside him and said.
"What do you say, Oz? I think this is much more meaningful than those petty things we two discussed. Why don't you just agree?"
'Yes!' Yang Le clenched his fist secretly in his heart. Although the result was still unclear, one enemy had already been reduced. This was the greatest progress.
"I still hold my original view," Oz said expressionlessly. "According to what the previous you said, the Beyonders are similar to the Celestial God or rather a part of the Heavenly Law of this Multiverse. Then they should comply with the Heavenly Law. Moreover, everything will be resolved, so there's no need to do anything extra."
"Oh, please," Bellicus rolled his eyes. "You're really a spoilsport. How could I be with you?"
Oz said indifferently, "Likewise."
"But doing so is wrong," Yang Le changed his train of thought again. "High Elder Starbeard once said that the cosmos should not be changed frequently."
"The words are different, but the meaning is similar," Oz nodded. "But that's talking about us, the Celestialsapiens. Other races are not under our jurisdiction."
"But aren't they similar to us, Oz?" Bellicus saw that the fun was about to fall through and hurriedly helped. "Aren't they also using their power to arbitrarily change the world?"
"The Multiverse is originally destined to be destroyed," Oz hesitated a little, but still insisted on his own opinion.
"Those Beyonders are not only destroying other worlds that should be colorful but also forcibly interfering with the normal development of the entire cosmos," Bellicus shook his head. "Isn't High Elder Starbeard afraid that other Celestialsapiens will become like them, which is why he set many restrictions? So we should stop them."
"This..." Oz opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Yang Le stood aside dumbfounded. Good heavens, what is this feeling of teammates getting a pentakill while I can only send question marks? Aren't you the Voice of Destruction? How can you spout so many serious rules so readily?
Crap, have I become a hanger-on?
