Chapter 1467 Negotiations break down (Tofu pudding must be eaten salty!)

Duanmu Huai wanted to go to that extraterritorial galaxy to have a look, but unfortunately, the subsequent negotiations did not go so smoothly.

Zhen Jiling and the other party had another round of negotiations. According to Duanmu Huai, the Tribunal had two conditions.

First, all the hateful intelligences called intelligent machines were not allowed to enter the star field where the Tribunal was located, and they would be executed immediately once they were found.

Second, the Tribunal could matchmake for the Interstellar Peace Company and introduce them to cooperate with other forces, but in return, one-tenth of the trade between the Interstellar Peace Company and these forces must be handed over to the Tribunal.

After all, only death and taxes cannot be let down.

The Interstellar Peace Company also responded quickly to these two conditions.

They can consider the first condition as appropriate, and the second one... impossible!

In the eyes of the Interstellar Peace Company, the Tribunal was just a matchmaker, and it was not unreasonable to ask for an introduction fee. But if you want to take a cut of every trade, that's another matter. Moreover, the Tribunal is not a political institution that rules these galaxies, so why should it give the Tribunal so much profit?

This makes no sense at all!

However, Duanmu Huai said that the Tribunal is not here to reason with you. Either give it or get out!

If it were the Dardanelles Trade Alliance, they might bargain with the other party. After all, this is the nature of businessmen. However, the Tribunal is not a commercial organization, not to mention that the Interstellar Peace Company is essentially a religious institution, and Duanmu Huai is also the God of Destruction. Other gods want to interfere in their territory, but they are lucky not to fight directly. You are not willing to pay some protection fees?

What? Do you think you are very powerful?

Do you want me to loosen your muscles and see which one is stronger, destruction or preservation? !

"………………The above is the reply of His Excellency the Grand Inquisitor."

Sitting across the table, Zhen Jiling smiled and looked at the man in front of him. The latter looked serious and said nothing.

"We are already very clear that the Interstellar Peace Company is essentially a religious institution that believes in Star God, and your trade expansion has a missionary color. The attitude of the Grand Inquisitor is very clear. If it is just an ordinary commercial trade behavior, then the Inquisition will not interfere. But when it comes to missionary and belief, it is another matter. There is no room for negotiation on this condition. You can either choose to accept it or choose to leave."

"It's a pity that you have such an idea, Miss Zhen Jiling."

The man sighed silently.

"I thought we could reach an agreement that would benefit both parties."

"Then, I will take my leave."

"Please go, and please entrust the Grand Inquisitor to convey that the will of the protection cannot be transferred. As the market development department of the Interstellar Peace Company, we will not give up our duties because of the obstruction of the Inquisition."

"That's really... very regrettable."

Soon, Duanmu Huai also got the final result of the negotiation from Zhen Jiling.

"I'm really sorry, big brother, Karen failed to complete the task."

"It's okay, I guessed it would be like this, but it's really surprising that the other party didn't even give you face."

After all, Zhen Jiling has [Superior Charm], and Duanmu Huai's character in the game also has this ability, so he knows very well how useful this ability is. If used well, it can even make the mouth-cannon boss turn against him or commit suicide in the final battle.

"The power of these people's faith seems to be very effective. At least Karen feels that Karen's cuteness has not affected the progress of the negotiations at all..."

"Then let it be. If you don't accept the toast, you really think I dare not touch him? Humph, it's great to have a god's protection, right? Then I'll see how long this Amber King can protect them!"

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly and connected to Ai Kote.

"Send the third assault fleet to destroy these bastards and let them know that the will of the Tribunal is also irresistible! They must understand that this is not a deal, but an order!"

Just as Duanmu Huai gave the order, in the deep space of the universe, a fleet was moving forward like a group of fish. On the bridge of its main ship, the man who had negotiated with Zhen Jiling before was standing there respectfully, looking at the figure on the screen in front of him.

"Sir, I'm sorry, the Tribunal has no intention of giving in."

"So, the negotiation failed?"

"Yes..."

The man lowered his head, not daring to look into the cold and fanatical eyes on the screen. After all, that was the director of the market development department and his immediate superior.

"But... is this really a good idea? In my personal opinion, in order to successfully develop the market here, we should indeed make some trade-offs..."

"That also depends on the object."

The voice coming from the screen was cold and indifferent.

"According to the information you submitted, the Inquisition is not the ruler of this star field, and its appetite is too big. Perhaps it does not understand what a huge existence the Interstellar Peace Company is. In order to complete the mission, we must do everything. Instead of letting these bugs suck our blood, this star field must be incorporated into the Interstellar Peace Company, and the mission of our market development department is to do this."

"Yes!"

Hearing this, the man seemed to be inspired, straightened his chest and responded loudly. At the same time, the picture on the screen disappeared.

"What should we do next, sir?"

The adjutant next to him looked at the man and asked.

"Bypassing the Tribunal and directly contacting local forces, our mission remains the same. In order to preserve the great mission, this is the task of our market development department. If the other party is willing to agree to our conditions, then there is no problem. If the other party is unwilling... follow the process."

"Understood."

"Beep!"

However, just as the man's voice fell, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded on the bridge.

"An unknown fleet is found and is approaching!"

"Unknown fleet?"

Hearing the report from his subordinates, the man was stunned, but before he could speak again. Everyone saw a flash in front of their eyes, and then--several giant warships seemed to emerge from the void, blocking their way. The design of these warships is extremely exquisite and gorgeous. Under the shining of the stars, the steeple churches reflect the shining brilliance. On both sides of the warships, the huge, black muzzles are aimed at the corporate fleet of the Interstellar Peace Company in front.

And this unique style of warship is not something the man has never seen before, because the Zhen Ji Ling who negotiated with him before was riding a similar style.

"It's the Inquisition..."

Looking at the fleet in front of him, the man's face was gloomy. Although the firepower of the Interstellar Peace Company's Enterprise Ship was extremely powerful, it was obvious that the Inquisition warships on the opposite side were equally powerful. Even in terms of size alone, many of the warships were much larger and more threatening than the Interstellar Peace Company's Enterprise Ships.

"Report, a communication request came from the other side!"

"Connected."

"Yes."

Soon, the screen flashed, and then Zhen Jiling appeared in front of the man again.

"I'm sorry, everyone in the Interstellar Peace Company's Market Development Department."

Zhen Jiling's voice was still so cute and smart, but it was completely inconsistent with the current atmosphere.

"Since the negotiations broke down, the Grand Inquisitor has issued an order requiring you to leave this star field immediately, otherwise we will use force to expel you."

"……………Do you think you can intimidate the Interstellar Peace Company in this way?"

"The Tribunal never intimidates anyone. The Grand Inquisitor makes a decision and then executes it… That's it. This is not intimidation, but a warning."

"But the Tribunal is not the ruler of this star field! You have no right to do this!"

"You have one minute."

Zhen Jiling did not answer the man's meaning, but just made a gesture, and then the countdown began. The man clenched his fists and stared at the front with a serious face—there, those huge warships were like deep-sea whales, blocking their way motionlessly. Their black muzzles were aimed straight at the corporate fleet of the Interstellar Peace Company, as ruthless as the executioner waiting for the third quarter of noon.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the man stared at Zhen Jiling, and at this moment, a message suddenly came. Seeing the internal information, the man was stunned for a moment, then he looked up with a pale face and looked at Zhen Jiling.

"No, I refuse! We will definitely bring everything here under the management of the Interstellar Peace Company! This is the mission of the Market Development Department, everything——dedicated to the Amber King!"

At this moment, the fire shone.

There was no signal to start a war, and the macro cannon that had been ready for a long time burst into a hot brilliance, and the huge shells rotated and roared towards the enemy in front of them.

The battle started.

Being able to expand territory in the wild universe, the Interstellar Peace Company is naturally not a good person, and their corporate fleet can be regarded as a powerful existence that ranks among the top. In fact, since the establishment of the Interstellar Peace Company, the Market Development Department has always been smooth sailing, and no force can stop the Interstellar Peace Company. The trade system built by the Interstellar Peace Company has therefore become the most powerful and most desirable in the extraterritorial galaxy.

However, this does not mean that the Interstellar Peace Company is really peaceful.

In the process of their development, there are also forces that resist or even refuse to be annexed by the Interstellar Peace Company and incorporated into its system.

When facing these forces, the Interstellar Peace Company revealed its not-so-peaceful side.

And these warships are prepared for this.

In the eyes of the Interstellar Peace Company, the Inquisition is just like other forces, a small stone encountered by the Interstellar Peace Company on the way to expand the market.

But now, the Inquisition will make them understand that what is in front of them is not a small stone, but a mountain that can never be crossed!
