To be fair, the noble families of the coalition army were not all idiots who were blinded by greed. Bai Xinghe's mutiny and Lei Chenghu's chaos were too abrupt, and it was easy for people to wonder whether or not a dangerous trap had been set up in the dark and obscure universe of the Jade Tripod Sector.
But since ancient times, the effectiveness of traps had little to do with the sophistication of the traps themselves. More importantly, the bait placed inside the traps was not attractive enough, and the animals that walked in front of the traps were not hungry enough.
People often only believed what they were willing to believe. A wild beast that had gone mad from hunger would only have bright meat in its eyes, and its nose would only be able to smell the fragrance of fat. It would simply be unable to see the bright edge of a blade in a trap.
Right now, the coalition army of the electors was such a hungry, reckless beast.
