Humanity cannot afford to be at a disadvantage in this negotiation. Because human beings slap their swollen faces and become fat, they will scare the other party for a while, and they can only chase after the victory, even if they are panicked to death, they can't show their cowardice.

In fact, according to the opinion of most people, even if all the 400 amoeba points in hand are handed over to buy a peaceful development, it is not impossible...... Anyway, this battle star, human beings must keep it, and spending an extra 400 amoeba points is actually nothing.

But in this way, it is easy for the other party to see through the reality of the new human civilization.

Once the other party turns around and tests the human race, it will be completely exposed, even if it is not exposed, it is very troublesome, so many years of deception and deception have really made everyone a little exhausted.

"If, in the course of negotiations, we make too big concessions, the other side may be suspicious and start to open their mouths?"

"But the breakdown of negotiations is not what we want."

People know too little about the Apollo civilization, they don't know each other's personalities, they don't know each other's thinking patterns, and it's really hard to guess what the other party is thinking, which makes it very uncomfortable.

It was only in the last attempt that the new human civilization deliberately exaggerated its war losses. But what the other party's reaction was, whether it was the same as expected, humans don't know, and it is impossible for humans to plant spies in the opponent's battle stars......

All in all, this negotiation is extremely difficult and very important, and everything depends on the improvisation of the negotiators.

After some discussion, several negotiators who had met with the Apollo civilization at the beginning must have go, at least a few times before, and they were a little familiar.

Including Zhang Yuan, the author of the "Extra Color Perception Paper", it is best to go, and now the Apollo civilization always uses this paper as an excuse, in case the other party still wants to be a demon in this regard, it can also be argued on the basis of reason.

Even if he was sure that the paper was absolutely true and reliable, because it had been successfully tested by humans themselves, how could it be false?

On the other hand, Zhang Yuan, as the head of the staff of the Council of Sciences and the former captain of the ship, shared a large part of the power and also needed to accept such obligations.

Even if this mission is very dangerous, it may be life-threatening.

"No problem on my side......"

Seeing that everyone was thinking silently, Zhang Yuan said: "In this way, the number of people who go doesn't need to be very large." After all, this matter is very dangerous, and if the negotiation fails, it is possible to tear your face and go to war directly...... If you go to too many senior leaders, it may directly become a Hongmen banquet and be served by the other party. ”

"So, all of you here just need to be ready for war, or ready for negotiations to go well. The captain's lady doesn't need to go, sitting in the base camp is the best choice. ”

The captain nodded, "Understood, I'll leave it to you next." ”

A total of 20 diplomats were carefully selected.

Then, humanity sent a message asking the opposing army's army to retreat some distance before it could create conditions for negotiations, otherwise there would be no talks!

Three days later, the army of the Apollo civilization showed its sincerity by retreating a distance of 2 astronomical units.

Next, the spacecraft of the two sides began formal negotiations near the air defense identification zone.

……

Al Planet Six, a huge squid, as the top nobleman of the Apollo civilization, was born with smooth sailing and lived a luxurious life unimaginable to ordinary civilians.

However, Al Planet Six has not been in a good temper lately, as he has been involved in a huge trouble.

At the beginning, the entire high-level was enthusiastic about trying to snatch a battle star through intimidation, and this bad idea was proposed by him.

If they really grabbed this battle star, it would greatly increase the prestige of their faction, including the entire family......

As a result, I came across a hard bone, a hard bone that has not been gnawed down so far.

Xingshi mobilized so many troops, there was a series of damages, the people under his command had begun to fight, political opponents had also begun to pour dirty water, and internal and external problems had combined, making him a little overdrawn.

Al Planet Six knew that if this operation failed completely, his prestige would plummet, and his own forces would be seized by political opponents and purged internally. He will fall from his current high position, and he will no longer be trusted by the suzerain's civilization.

So for some purpose, this big squid can only go to the front line in person, conduct diplomatic negotiations, and try to make a final redemption.

Anyway, he must blackmail more benefits!

"Definitely! Damn new humans! ”

Individuals of the Apollonian civilization usually have emotions on their faces, and when their faces are black and shiny, their brains are rapidly congested, and they are in a state of rage, vigilance, or imminent attack.

This physiological phenomenon evolved from primitive conditions. In ancient times, these large octopuses lived by preying on a species of "cat shrimp" in the shallow sea, and although these squid were large in size, they were not very aggressive. In order to avoid predation by hunters, they have evolved a whole set of defenses against black liquor contaminating water sources.

However, in the interstellar age, this whole set of defenses represents a less friendly etiquette. No one likes to be spit on, so these giant squids usually cover their huge heads to avoid being observed.

If you can't help it, you can spit ink into the helmet, and no one knows anyway.

“3000…… 3000 amoeba points is our bottom line! Al Planet Six opened his mouth directly to the human negotiator, who was only one-third his size.

The original 4,000 amoeba points were changed by him to 3,000, which he thought was a big concession. In fact, the Apollo star "Al Planet Six" was also very nervous, and all the people in his spaceship were cronies. If the negotiations really don't go well, those political opponents will inevitably seize the opportunity to criticize it, so it's better not to bring it.

"For the court trial, we have a seventy-fifty discount......"

The human negotiators sitting in front of this big squid were all silent, and the way this squid spoke was too rough, if you really want to negotiate well, wouldn't it be fooling people to come out with this kind of excuse?

It was the first time Zhang Yuan had seen this kind of heavily armed squid-type alien face to face. These creatures are very large, about 10 meters long, hiding in tailor-made mechanical armor, and they can't see their exact appearance through the naked eye, only faintly revealing white muscles.

As a scientific adviser, he only listened to the negotiations between the two sides and did not directly express his opinion.

"Ahem...... ahem" Zhang Yuan coughed lightly, this is some code agreed in advance, indicating that the way human beings speak should be tougher, and these squid in the province are still playing falsely here.

The meeting place of the two sides was a large spaceship of the Apollo civilization, which came alone and stayed at the border of the human air defense identification zone, and the surrounding area was monitored by more than a dozen armed spaceships of the new human side.

Basically, it is a posture of mutual deterrence.
