The captain of the ship issued a request for surrender, and no one in the entire merchant ship spoke out against it.

But the middle-aged A-class man's face was still ugly, because he knew very well that the other party might not accept the surrender request.

Sure enough, the man on the other side didn't pay attention to this at all, but continued to talk to himself.

"What happened in the Smurfs Star Harbor, did you deliberately make things difficult for us?"

The captain couldn't answer, so he could only look at the young master, but the young master was pale, pursed his lips and said nothing.

He also wants to save face, he used to speak very harshly, but now he wants to say soft words, which is really difficult.

The old man, who was good at patting on the back, turned pale, and his eyelids were so wide that he didn't dare to say a word.

After being silent for almost two seconds, the young master found that the old man did not accept his hints, so he had to turn his gaze to the middle-aged A-level.

He gave a begging look: Please help me lie.

It's useless! The middle-aged A-level sighed secretly in his heart, but he spoke slowly.

"We are the Norton family's caravan, if there is any misunderstanding, we can sit down and talk."

The last time there was a big fight with that merchant ship, neither side signed up, and this time the Norton family actually took the initiative to report the origin.

The captain also realized the seriousness of the problem, and added in a timely manner, "The conditions are casually mentioned by you."

He and the middle-aged man both thought that in the main control room, there was actually a monitoring probe.

This is convenient for the caravan people to observe the inside from the outside and also initiate video calls.

Now that the other party has taken over the central control system of the merchant ship, there is a high probability that the camera in the control room will be turned on.

The two of them really guessed correctly, and the voice on the other side said coldly, "It turns out that it's really you...... Endless, isn't it interesting?"

Qu Jianlei initiated a dialogue, and he did not mean to be soft-hearted, these people knew the existence of Xiaohu, and the end was already doomed.

But if there is a good reason to kill, his thoughts will be more sensible.

Just like the last battle with the cook, he didn't mean to talk at all, just kill it.

In fact, he has a more important reason - how did he offend the other party?

If you don't understand this problem, it may attract other hands in the future, and the hidden danger is huge.

However, after seeing the other party's reaction, he knew that he had guessed correctly, and now this sentence is an indirect question about the process of resentment.

The young master was still pale and silent, he had already realized the seriousness of the problem from the reactions of the two of them.

In fact, even he himself is more aware of the sensitivity of artificial intelligence.

For a while, he complained a little about the middle-aged A-level: Good and decent, what do you call "artificial intelligence" for?

If you don't scream, you can pretend to be deaf and dumb, and now it's too late.

He also knew that the most important thing he should do at the moment was not to complain, but to apologize to the other party.

However, he still can't say the words of apology, the key is that he knows very well that an ordinary apology will not help solve the problem.

He can bow his head, but with many subordinates around him, he really can't lower too much.

The middle-aged A-level thought that the other party probably already knew the cause and effect of the incident.

The reason is simple, the other party has artificial intelligence, and it is not too difficult to eavesdrop on some conversations.

And their plan to retaliate against each other, although not reflected in any text, is frequently seen in conversations.

Anyway, if you have already confessed it, you will recognize it more thoroughly, have a better attitude, and it will be easier to obtain forgiveness.

Because he has already guessed that the other party's possible follow-up measures are simply beyond his own means.

He took a deep breath and replied slowly, "Your Excellency, the Norton family is willing to pay a billion as an apology this time."

"Moreover, if you have other requests, you can also mention them directly, and the Norton family can fully agree to them."

More than a billion? Depending on how you say it, the heavily armed merchant ships they are now on are worth only six or seven billion.

The merchant ships of the opposing side look in tatters, but

At the moment, it doesn't look bad.

Except for the unknown thickness of the armor, there are relatively few guns, and there is no problem with speeding up or anything.

If you count the artificial intelligence loaded on the ship's hull, it is not too much to count 500 million.

The battle between oneself and the opponent's merchant ship was originally a battle that started with one billion.

If you break the other party, the loss will be 500 million, so 100 million is really not much.

Anyway, the Norton family has a big business, mainly because the young master has been designated as the successor.

In order to save the young master's life, the family will definitely not be ambiguous when it comes up with one billion.

In addition, he quoted the price so high at once, which also means to show his strength tactfully.

Although the Norton family is not a super power, they will not hesitate to take out a billion at all.

It's nothing more than a fight in space, and a billion can be regarded as having the sincerity to solve the problem.

Of course, he didn't say that he chased the other party last time, so let's fool if you can.

But who is Qu Jianlei? He doesn't need the other party to admit it - you didn't deny it, that's enough.

The big-headed butterfly froze in his mind, and he kept muttering in a low voice, "A billion, a billion, a ......."

Qu Jianlei replied angrily, "And then you were exposed for this, is it worth it?"

"Tsk," the big-headed butterfly continued to solidify, but there was no other reaction.

Qu Jianlei also ignored it, for obsessive-compulsive disorder, the outcome of this matter cannot be changed.

It doesn't matter if the money is gone, as long as the people are still there, then everything is possible.

"Hehe," he sneered, "It's just the last time, it's not like a billion can't be considered."

"This time, we deliberately arranged for Starport to delay our liftoff, and you chased after us and opened fire, is this still a matter of money?"

At this moment, a crew member on the other side trembled, "The output of power and power system continues to decline......

The young master's face became more and more pale, is this an operation to kill people?

In desperation, he said incoherently, "What was the last time? We'll see you for the first time."

The middle-aged A-level looked at him coldly, after all, he was still young, and he was in a mess, is this the time to deny it?

He simply said, "We are willing to pay any price, just to live."

The young master's face turned even paler, and even his body trembled.

He was born rich and qualified, and he was appointed as the future helmsman of the family early, so that his vision and heart were extremely high.

Not only was he angry, but he also boasted that he was not afraid of death, but when he really faced death, he was still afraid.

He is not afraid of fighting to the death, but now that the other party is using such unreasonable means, he doesn't even have a chance to fight hard.

This feeling of despair made him not only afraid, but also extremely aggrieved!

"Alive?" Qu Jianlei snorted coldly, "When you shouted 'artificial intelligence, you didn't think of the end?'

The middle-aged A-level eyes narrowed, but his heart sank suddenly-the situation he didn't want to encounter still happened.

The young master glared at him fiercely, his gaze was so fierce that he seemed to want to eat people—it's all your broken mouth!

However, he had not completely lost his composure, or rather his pride did not allow infighting in front of the enemy.

The young master's mouth moved, and he spoke bitterly, "Your Excellency, the Norton family is supreme! I am willing to make full compensation."

"Hehe," the other side smiled contemptuously, "as if no one has the supreme being."

When the young master heard this, he was completely desperate, "Isn't there a little possibility of accommodation? I'm the heir to my family!"

Only then did the other crew members react, and the other side seemed to be not going to let anyone go, and they immediately exploded.

They really couldn't imagine that their own side was easily taken down, and the other party would actually kill people.

"That's it!" The middle-aged A-level shouted, "The other side is privately researching artificial intelligence, and you are trying to get the information out."

！」

The noisy cabin suddenly fell silent, and the artificial intelligence was studied privately...... This is a big ban!

What is strictly forbidden in the empire sounds like a lot, but it's not much.

The initial ban on artificial intelligence was not strict, and it was later strictly banned after causing serious consequences.

The middle-aged A-level had already guessed the latter possibility, and did not think that the other party must be from a big force, so he would be so desperate.

But now...... Let's call it broken, if a crew member can escape, the other party's life will definitely not be easy.

Of course, it is almost impossible to escape in such an open area, and the other party will never give up the pursuit.

But what if? Anyway, it's good to make the other party jealous.

The young master shouted lifelessly.

"When we left, we had already sent a message, if you dare to do it, just wait for the Norton family to take revenge."

The middle-aged A-level twitched his mouth helplessly: Why didn't I find out before, this guy is so stupid?

Who will be at the helm of the Norton family in the future? Hehe, what a joke.

Immediately after, he escaped from the central control room in a flash - to save himself.

Sure enough, the next moment, the voice spoke in a mocking tone.

"Really? Thanks for reminding me, we'll go and uproot the Norton house when we get back."

The young master was stunned when he heard this, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand and made a quick gesture.

When several crew members saw this gesture, they were stunned for a moment, "Young Master...... You?"

The young master replied categorically, "Obey the order and do it!"

"I don't want to die," one of the crew members collapsed, turned and ran, still yelling.

Maybe the other party is scaring people, young master, I really don't want to die.

These crew members were carefully selected by the Norton family to escort the future family owner.

They are highly skilled and resolute, and this should not be the case.

However, it's no wonder that this person, the two sides just talked for a while, how did it develop into the danger of annihilation?

The content is indeed scary, but ...... What if the other party is just intimidating?

In all fairness, everyone knows that this is unlikely, but there is a great terror between life and death!

The young master raised his hand and shot this person in the back, and said coldly, "Execute the order!"

Xiaohu and Qu Jianlei watched this scene with great interest, "Boss, what do you say his gesture represents?"

It's not a universal gesture, it's a small circle," Qu replied indifferently.

"Observe and don't let them do anything."
