Of the four major groups of red humanity, two of them had already formed a remarkably strong unified front on this issue.
The Terrans and Rubarthans already had the power to form the Red Collective by themselves. They did not strictly need the support of the existing Red Two.
It was just that any strong opposition from the mechers and the fleeters would definitely hinder any efforts to turn the Red Collective into an equal partner to the Red Association and Red Fleet!
In order to reduce delays, pushbacks and other hindrances, it was vital for the Red Two to be as supportive as possible!
At the very least, the more divided they were over this issue, the lower their ability to sabotage the development of the Red Collective!
Ves and many others waited impatiently for the leaders of the Red Association to show up and share their own verdicts.
