And such horror fortresses, not one, but dozens!

It floated silently above their heads, and the atmosphere of the entire conference hall froze again.

As soon as the camera turned, the camera focused on the underside of the steel fortress, and below the steel fortress, there were many Hessesen holes.

These holes were the emitting ports, and every person of the Mountain Clan felt a little cold overhead.

"Time seems to be running out. Yikui picked up the hourglass and shook it.

"Yikui, it's time to come back. Bai Chen said.

"Lord Castle, I don't think I can go back. Yikui had a faint smile on his face, but he had no fear.

"I didn't mean to let you die, it's not worth it. Bai Chen looked at Yikui seriously.

"It's very cost-effective, so many patriarchs of the Mountain Clan, and 10 million people of the Mountain Clan are buried with me, this is an absolutely cost-effective deal. ”

"It's not cost-effective, no matter how much funeral you have, it's not as valuable as you. ”

The patriarch of the Mountain Ridge Clan showed a hint of joy when he saw that Bai Chen actually attached so much importance to Yikui, and felt that Yikui was a good hostage.

"Your Excellency, since this diplomat of yours wants to stay in the Mountain Clan, you should fulfill him. ”

"He won't listen to you. Bai Chen said with a smile, and then began to operate on the laptop for a while, and the mountain clan patriarch found that the raised point in the center directly below the steel fortress seemed to be flashing with red light.

"What are you doing?" asked a mountain clan patriarch.

"Oh, I aimed the Sword of Heavenly Punishment at Dahongshan, although I can't aim at Central City, but I can aim at Dahongshan. ”

"Stop it now!or I'll kill him!!"

"If you kill the diplomat who just hurt me, then your Mountain Clan will be wiped out today!, and I can assure you that from today onwards, you will be hunted down until the last one of your clansmen is killed. ”

The patriarchs of the Mountain Clan fell silent again, and at this time, the time was less than ten minutes.

The breath of despair spread through the chamber, and the hourglass was still flowing.

Everyone looked at the hourglass, and it seemed that what had passed in it was not sand, but the blood of the Mountain Clan.

"I surrender ......"

I don't know which patriarch opened his mouth and said, "I surrender!"

And all the patriarchs looked up at the one who had spoken, and there was no one to accuse them.

On the contrary, they should be grateful to the patriarch for taking all the blame and bearing the guilt of a coward.

In fact, all the mountain clans should be grateful to him, but this can't happen, someone must take responsibility.

The defeat of the Mountain Clan will definitely make the Mountain Clan unprecedentedly angry, so the patriarch who is the first to speak, he will be used as a scapegoat and pushed to the judgment seat of the Mountain Clan.

"My people and I are willing to surrender. The patriarch repeated again.

"It's not just you, but all the Mountain Clan Patriarchs present, I don't want your verbal promises. Bai Chen said.

"What do you want?"

"Yikui, it's up to you. Bai Chen said.

"Yes, Lord Castle. Yikui took out a list: "Everyone, please take a look." ”

"What is this?"

"Indemnification Clause. ”

"Indemnity clause? We want to compensate Sky City? It's our Mountain Clan who lost this time? You still want us to compensate, are you going too far?"

"The war was provoked by you, and your losses are entirely your own fault, is it possible that a group of robbers failed to rob, and the victims should be responsible for the aftermath of the compensation?" Yikui said of course.

The patriarchs picked up the list and looked at it, but the more they looked at it, the more angry they became.

A mountain clan patriarch slapped the table: "This is impossible! You can't do this, we can't accept these demands! ”

"Don't be so loud, I hear you. Yi Kui clasped his ears and said nonchalantly: "The compensation of 100 billion Heavenly Crystals, this is very reasonable, because the attack of the Sword of Heavenly Punishment, every launch, but it costs money, do you really think that the Sword of Heavenly Punishment can attack without loss? Every launch requires at least 100 million Heavenly Crystals, you think about it, how much money has been spent on our Sky City in the past ten days." ”

Regardless of whether the Sword of Heavenly Punishment was burning money or not, but the money they burned in exchange for a lot of losses for the warriors of the Mountain Clan, they hadn't found anyone to reason, the other party lost money, and they lost people.

In contrast, their losses are greater, so why should they be held liable for each other's losses?

"Because you are the vanquished, you are the masterminds of the war, and all along, our Sky City has been a passive counterattack, whether it is moral or reasonable, you are untenable. ”

"But...... 100 billion Tianjing, even if we sell our mountain clan, we can't afford to give it. ”

"As long as you promise compensation, you can't afford to pay it back and then negotiate separately. ”

"Okay, let's not talk about the compensation of the 100 billion Tianjing, as well as this land cut, we can't accept this clause either. ”

"You can see clearly, the main land in our city is some barren mountains and wilderness with no population, and there are no resources, and the land area is not large, which has almost no impact on your mountain clan, and we want these places to prevent your mountain clan from treacherously attacking us again, so we must deploy control in these places, this condition is non-negotiable, we must give these places, and you must also give. ”

"We need to talk about it. ”

"Ten minutes for you. ”

The patriarchs gathered together and muttered, while Yikui sat calmly at the table, waiting for the outcome of their discussion.

Finally, after the discussions, they sent a representative forward.

"We can pay for these three places, but the amount we are asking for is halved. ”

"No, the 100 billion Heavenly Crystals in this compensation are not paid to us Sky City, but to all the members of the Sky Alliance, after all, because of the attack of your Mountain Clan, the commercial trade of our Sky Alliance has been greatly hit, and this money cannot be less. ”

Of course, what Yi Kui said was not a lie, the war launched by the Mountain Clan this time did have an impact on the commercial trade of the Sky Alliance, but the impact was not so great.

Originally, because of the war launched by the Mountain Clan, many merchants were worried that their industries could not be guaranteed, but the secret weapon of Heavenly Punishment that Sky City then displayed increased the merchants' confidence.

The other members of the city-state may still have some losses, but because of this war, some merchants in Sky City have more confidence in Sky City.

War is never a loss, as long as it is done properly, it can also be profitable, war reparations are one thing, but the bigger profit point is not war reparations.

If you only focus on the war reparations, you will always be a loss-making business.

A truly smart person is looking for benefits in all aspects, and Bai Chen made the Sword of Heavenly Punishment public and announced the Sky Force Field in order to give confidence to the residents of Sky City.

For the inhabitants of Sky City, they are afraid of war, which is very bad for Sky City.

However, Bai Chen just wanted to do the opposite, change the concept of the residents of Sky City, and let them know that war is not a bad thing.

even used the war to make Sky City's status more noble and indestructible in the hearts of the people.

Increasing their sense of belonging to Sky City, coupled with the repeated propaganda brainwashing covered by the news, in a few days, the residents of Sky City no longer feel afraid of this war.

On the contrary, because of the guidance of public opinion, most people are clamoring to give the Shanling clan a good look.

Other city-states have done the same, but it is not known how much they can learn.

Of the 100 billion Heavenly Crystals, except for one-third of the compensation that belonged to Sky City, the remaining two-thirds were distributed to those allies of Sky City, giving them a reassurance.

After all, Sky City eats meat, so it can't be eaten by others.

It doesn't matter if and how much they have contributed to this war.

As for those wall grasses, Bai Chen would definitely not care about them.

Their vision or intentions made Bai Chen look down on them.

Bai Chen was too lazy to take them to play with him again, as for this negotiation, the Mountain Clan may be silent, but the entire Sky City already knows about it.

Because this negotiation is basically a live broadcast, not only Sky City, but even the entire city-states of the Sky Alliance, are broadcasting this negotiation live.

Both sides are sticking to their own bottom lines, and neither is willing to let go.

However, Sky City, as the victor, of course, has the initiative.

In addition to the land cession and the compensation of 100 billion Tianjing, there are many additional small conditions.

These small conditions are all optional, or small conditions proposed by Sky City's allies.

Yikui resolutely does not let go of the two most important compensation conditions, and strives for other small conditions as much as possible.

The two sides are arguing, and the residents of the city-state of the Sky Alliance are watching it with relish.

They have really never seen such a show, and today's TV shows are not very rich, so the game at the negotiating table has become particularly exciting.

And this negotiation, counting from the arrival of Yikui, has been fighting for ten hours, and it is already the second day, and it still has not ended, and there is no rest.

However, Yikui has already said that if the negotiations are not concluded before the Judgment Day comes, then the negotiations will be terminated and the negotiations will be held after the Judgment Day, but the price that the Mountain Clan needs to pay will be doubled at that time.

Therefore, time is equally precious to the Mountain Clan, even more precious than life, so they are not even willing to waste time resting.

They just want to negotiate a result as soon as possible, but they are also not stupid, knowing that the time limit is just a threat to them, although they care, they may not really take the bait.

Finally, thirteen hours later, the negotiations finally came to an end.

On the premise of ensuring that the two major conditions are not moved, more than 20 small conditions are also attached.

Of course, the Mountain Clans were not completely without gains, and they removed half of the strings attached. (To be continued.) )
