ACT368: Good Faith in Negotiations
After the fierce battle, Zhao Jian sat on the palm of Chiyou's body, took out a pack of cigarettes, skillfully lit one for himself, and then looked at the scenery while leisurely swallowing clouds and spitting out fog.
This habit was learned by the veterans of Terry because of his worries when he was just independent. But he soon discovered that his constitution was immune to cigarettes, and smoking could neither harm his lungs nor produce any pleasure, and it felt like swallowing a mouthful of thick air.
So many times, Zhao Jian smokes just to meet the occasion...... Let's say now!
"Afterwards, a cigarette will race over the living immortals...... I said, girl, have you cried enough? If that's enough, wipe your tears away, and we'll be back in a moment. β
"You demon!"
"Demons? Demons are demons! I'm not really a good person anyway. β
With a flick of the cigarette ash, Zhao Jian slowly teased the red-haired girl behind him.
Emperor Yan completely lost his combat ability after being "forced" by Zhao Jian and Chi You and became their prisoner, and he was sitting on the palm of Chi You's body with his knees crossed and sobbing incessantly. The stick that Zhao Jian used to subdue Emperor Yan was a disruptive energy virus, and although it was not as toxic as the kind of domineering that Emperor Yan used on Chi You, it was better because it had a certain "controllability".
When Emperor Yan was just forced to disarm from the fighting state, as soon as he changed back into his human form, he wanted to fly up and grab Zhao Jian and hold him hostage to threaten Chi You. But as soon as her body flew halfway, she suddenly froze in mid-air, and Zhao Jian, who was wearing adsorption shoes, walked over and flicked it casually, and the other party spun in mid-air.
Under Emperor Yan's shocked and puzzled gaze, Zhao Jian took out a small thing the size of a palm from his trouser pocket, which looked like a mobile phone that Zhao Jian had used in his previous life. Then Zhao Jian shook the screen in front of Emperor Yan with a bright smile on his face, explaining the role of this thing to the other party.
As early as when Chiyou's detoxification work had just been completed, Zhao Jian asked Thor to use it as a prototype to develop their own energy toxins. And little Thor lived up to expectations. It didn't take long for it to bear fruit.
The new virus only works on energy-type organisms, and will quickly erode the entire body of the poisoner, but will not cause any destructive effects. Latent viruses can receive signals from specific wavelengths and respond to various disturbances to the poisoner.
The only drawback is that the virus must penetrate through the guΓ² "internal port" to achieve the best effect, which is why Chi You has to pry the cockpit canopy of the Yandi Emperor.
In order to convince Emperor Yan of the role of the virus, Zhao Jian specially made a demonstration for the other party.
I saw him swipe his finger across the touch screen, and showed Emperor Yan the list of frantic options, which included items such as "itchy all over the body", "more than urinating" and so on, which made the other party's face change greatly. In the end, Zhao Jian chose a "second-level vibration", and then lightly clicked on it......
Just five minutes of trying, that indescribable terrible feeling. made Emperor Yan, who was once confident that he could rely on his "love for his sister" to defeat a qiΔ tribulation, almost collapsed! The other party cried in the evil laughter of Zhao Jian and Chi You, relieving Chi You's evil breath for 13 years.
After Chi You dealt with Emperor Yan on his side, Zhao Jian did not rush back, and after the second team of King Kong and Ghost Ji rushed back, he had already relied on Star Castle to reach an even match. The two sides were firing at each other passionately at this time, and they were both using ordinary shells, so the casualties caused were not large, and Zhao Jian planned to wait for Caesar to pack up the snake and the candle dragon and go back together.
At this time, Chi You, who was in the form of a royal sister, came over and reached out to take the cigarette butt from Zhao Jian's mouth. I took two puffs without mind. Then Chi You also knelt down and lazily lay on Zhao Jian's back.
"That little girl can beat unexpectedly!"
"Yes! A back axle fell and knocked out the candle dragon, which is worthy of a fighting nation! β
While the two were chatting, the snake that had been beaten by Caesar for an unknown number of punches finally stopped its activity because of the exhaustion of energy. Caesar, on the other hand, has greatly extended the time limit for battles due to the addition of additional reserve energy gauges. After confirming that the two giant gods were no longer moving, Caesar flew towards Chiyou with one in one hand.
"Brother Zhao! I beat them all! β
"Hmmm! I've seen them all. Little Inia is really capable. β
As soon as Caesar flew over and stopped, Inia got out of the cockpit and happily flew into Zhao's arms. That special tight-fitting driving suit. Let Zhao Jian really feel the growth of Xiaomao Mei in the past six months.
With reasonable and abundant nourishment, Inya's breasts are already enough to be proud of her peers, and she has developed more plump and attractive. So much so that sometimes Zhao Jian can't help but be shameless YY when he looks at Inya's curvy figure. If she really can't take her sister Christagard in the future, then it seems to be a good choice to eat this little sister-in-law who is very capable in every sense!
"Inya, did you feel anything uncomfortable after firing the Titan Soldier?"
"No! It's just a little tired. β
When Inia fought against Caesar against the Snake and the Candle Dragon, because the body was completely crushed in terms of performance, it was relatively easy to fight, and the intensity of the battle was completely different from that when she fought against Chiyou, so the consumption of Inya's mental power was far less than that of Edda.
After the two met, Zhao Jian praised Inia without hesitation, and then the two of them returned to the cockpit and returned to the Star Castle with three prisoners, and the battle between the fleets here also came to an abrupt end because of their return, and both sides were shocked beyond measure!
Especially for the Northern Fleet, their morale was greatly hit after they saw that their three giant gods had been defeated. At this time, Jilin received a radio communication from Zhao Jian, and the other party asked her in a confident tone.
"Lieutenant General Jilin, I want to sit down with you and have a good talk, you shouldn't object, right?"
ββ¦β¦β
The sharp turn made Jilin feel very passive, unless she wanted to bury her entire fleet, she would not be able to refuse Zhao's "request".
So at the request of Zhao Jian, the two fleets ceased fire and retreated, and Zhao Jian inspected the battle situation and found that his fleet had suffered a lot of losses. Three destroyers were sunk in the engagement, and the Light Cruiser of the Second Artillery Sister was broken, and the sisters De Linger and Jana were also damaged by the Medium Break DΓΉ.
On the other hand, on the side of the Northern Fleet, under the proper command of Jilin, they actively exerted their numerical superiority at the beginning, and successfully suppressed the left-behind fleet and the first blocking fleet on the side of Xingbao. Changbaishan and Taishan also released carrier-based aircraft. It ensures its own "air supremacy".
If it weren't for King Kong and Ghost Ji who wittily handed over the "loot" to the destroyer for safekeeping, and ran back to reinforce their hometown first, the loss on Zhao's side would definitely be even greater!
Fortunately, this battle took place right on the doorstep, and after the ceasefire between the two sides, some tugboats flew out of the Star Fort to tow their damaged battleships back for repairs, and King Kong also turned back to pick up the destroyers, and then towed the hulls of the Kii and Andrea back to their lair in front of the stunned face of the Northern Fleet.
And after Zhao Jian returned to Star Castle with the captives, he opened the door and sent an invitation to Jilin.
"It's been a long time. Lieutenant General. β
"Yes! I just didn't expect it...... It turned out to be this way to meet again. β
In the berthing area of the Star Castle, Jilin, who came to the door with a lone ship, saw the Zhao ship who came to greet him in person as soon as he got off the platform. The way the two sides met this time could be said to be the last thing Jilin wanted, especially when she saw that Zhao Jian was still wearing the uniform of the Tang Navy, her heart was even more mixed.
Led by Zhao Jian, Jilin and the two adjutants arrived in a richly decorated reception room. After the two sides sat down, Jilin and Zhao Jian exchanged a few polite words, and then asked each other a question she was most concerned about at the moment.
"Where is Emperor Yan? How is she now? β
"Miss Yandi's body was slightly injured in the battle, and her condition was also a little low, and she was repairing it with the other two at this time. But don't worry! Repairs don't take much time. When I return them later, I guarantee that the three giant gods will definitely look like new! β
"Can you repair the Titan!?"
An adjutant couldn't help but ask in surprise, Zhao Jian nodded and said proudly.
"It's not just the Titans. I can repair the god core and the battleship here. β
Zhao Jian's words made several people present look surprised, and Jilin, who had been smiling all the time, tapped his palm with a folding fan after a moment of silence, and then sighed implicitly.
"I really didn't expect it! Mr. Zhao, you are so deeply hidden. With such a powerful ancient human base, dozens of warships, and a super giant god soldier who can defeat Emperor Yan, with these capitals, your Excellency must be in your heart...... You must be planning for the great cause of nation-building, right? β
"Statehood? Forget it! I know how many pounds and taels I have. It's not that ambitious either. I don't have much talent, I just want to be a happy and free king! β
"Oh~! I'm afraid your words are insincere, right? If you really want to be a free king, as long as you hand over this base to the country, won't you have glory and wealth at your fingertips? β
Hearing that there was a thorn in Jilin's words, Zhao Jian chuckled lightly and didn't care, and then lightly slapped his hands twice, and two people walked in outside the door, and Jilin was stunned when he saw them.
"Qinghai, Sichuan, why are you?"
"Yo! It's been a long time, and Qinghai and I are now messing with this kid. β
When Leng Buding saw the "deceased" Qinghai and Sichuan, Rao is Jilin, a smiling tiger who is moody, and he can't help but show surprise. After the two came to Zhao Jian's side, Sister Sichuan made it to the sofa with a big grin, and Qinghai stood silently behind her back with her hands upright.
Zhao Jian first asked the two of them to prove to Jilin that they were still the original self and had not been formatted, and then let them testify for themselves, and he Zhao Jian and his army were still a group of patriots.
"Alright! I already understand what you mean, your ghost hunter is still an army loyal to the Tang Empire, but you don't want to hand over the capital in your hands. In fact, there is still room for mediation in this kind of thing! β
"There is indeed room for mediation, but I also know very well that before I show my strength, I can't beat His Majesty Meng Zong by sincerity alone. In addition, after the previous series of things, I also understood a truth. β
"What's the truth?"
"The empire is too big! The interior is too complicated too! Even people who are dedicated to the country will have differences and even antagonism because of the way they do. I, Zhao Jian, consider myself a patriot, and as long as this unit is still under my control, I will never do anything that will discredit the country and the nation. But on this premise, I want to get more autonomy. β
ββ¦β¦ What you mean, I kind of get it. Do you want me to help you convey this meeting? β
"Yes, here is my handwritten letter and 'sincerity', please pass it on to His Majesty on your behalf."
Zhao Jian took out a letter from his arms and solemnly handed it to Jilin, and then Jilin felt that two containers had been sent to the deck of his hull. Ji Lin knew that this conversation had also come to an end, and got up to leave, but he didn't take two steps before he suddenly thought of something, and turned back to ask Zhao Jian.
"How do you plan to arrange the aftermath?"
"I'm going to sink one of your ships."
"Yes, which one do you want?" Jilin simply agreed.
"Hey! Aren't you afraid that I want you? β
"Don't you need me to deliver the letter for you?"
"Alright! Then just give me the Dalian. β
"No problem."
"Deal!" x2 (To be continued......)
PS: Emperor Yan will definitely send it back, and it is still a buy one get one free, and send it back with "jumping ~ eggs".
