515: Chapter 514 The New Demon-Slaying Plan!

Almost instantly, a ripple appeared before Smith's retinas.

A light screen appeared out of thin air.

As if it had always been there.

"My Lord, your loyal servant Smith is here to report."

Facing the light screen, the compassion and holiness Smith displayed before his believers vanished, replaced by absolute reverence—the absolute obedience of a subordinate to a superior.

"You must have full knowledge of the Chinese devil's movements. What the Chinese devil announced this time has already caused a massive ideological shock to the believers in the Holy Land."

"The faith of many in the Lord has begun to waver."

Smith deliberately exaggerated the severity of the problem.

"Although I have temporarily stabilized the situation, the outlook is not optimistic."

"I fear that if more forceful measures are not taken, the foundation of faith we worked so hard to build will crumble."

He had to make the Trisolarans realize that they, as pawns, still held immense value.

The light screen floated silently, without any response.

Smith knew that Sophon was listening.

Or rather, the Trisolaran Civilization was listening.

He didn't waste words and went straight to the point.

"I believe that the Demon-Slaying Project we formulated previously needs to be adjusted."

"Sending eighteen Saints to infiltrate China to find an opportunity to assassinate Lin Mo... Before today, that plan might have had a slim chance of success."

"But now, China has announced their National Kunlun Armor Project."

Smith did not speak quickly.

But every word was carefully considered.

"Within a year, they will equip hundreds of millions of people with Exoskeleton Armor."

"What does this mean? It means that China's territory will soon be filled with hundreds of millions of super-soldiers."

"No matter how capable our Saints are, they will only find death."

"Furthermore, we cannot predict whether China still hides more advanced detection and defense methods."

"Once the Saints are exposed, not only will the mission fail, but we will also completely lose this vital force we worked so hard to cultivate."

He paused, as if giving the other party time to digest the information.

"Therefore, I request an immediate adjustment to the original Demon-Slaying Project."

After speaking, he waited quietly.

He knew these words were risky.

It was equivalent to negating his own previous work and the prior decisions of the Trisolaran Civilization.

But times had changed.

If he couldn't adjust his strategy according to the rapidly changing situation, what difference was there between him and the foolish believers he had deceived?

The light screen remained silent.

Smith's heart began to race slightly, but he forced himself to remain calm.

He knew that what he was about to say was the real point—the only chance for him and the entire Earth-Trisolaris Organization to secure a future.

"My Lord, I have a new proposal."

Smith's voice became steadier.

"A new Demon-Slaying Project that I believe has a higher success rate and better aligns with our long-term interests."

He looked up, gazing intently at the light screen, as if he could pierce through the distance of four light-years to speak directly with that unknown civilization.

"According to our assessment, China will recruit top talent from other countries through the Global Top Talent Sharing Program."

"This is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! An opportunity for our people to enter the heart of China legally, reasonably, and even welcomingly!"
