Meanwhile, whether Gu Hang was capable of achieving all this still left doubts in people's hearts.
Therefore, that phased goal had become inevitable.
Not losing Mingyan City was the bare minimum. Now, since no one else could solve the problem, they let Gu Hang try, throwing the mess at him to see if he could save it. If Mingyan City were to be swallowed up by the Nest Capital, that would mean failure, and Gu Hang would likely be dismissed immediately.
In fact, although Lois didn't explicitly state it, Gu Hang could guess that the relevant reports had probably already reached higher levels. The Star Domain Government and possibly even the higher level Space Domain Government were probably making preparations for both outcomes.
