The nearby Star Pupils Protoss fleet urgently assembled on this planet, ready to stand by, and the border line not far away also increased its defense force, and was on alert for the imperial fleet outside the border line.
After waiting for two days, everyone waited for the sighting report of Sisko arriving at this border.
"Two Excellencies, the leader of Sisko has reached the border and will come soon."
Jed breathed a sigh of relief and said vigorously.
His expression was a little sluggish. For the past two days, Han Xiao and Heboar have been staying in the room. He suggested that everyone go to the accommodation, but Han Xiao and Heboar did not let him go at all, nor did they allow him to leave, Jade He could only accompany him in the room for two days. He was on pins and needles and did not dare to sleep. The highly tense nerves aggravated his mental exhaustion and made him look bad.
For Transcendent A Grade, there is no need to rest for two days. High-level life forms have a different sense of time. They can make microsecond-level reactions, or they can close and open their eyes for several days to adjust themselves. The activity level of the cells can be achieved, and the elites they bring along with the surrounding Star Pupils Protoss guards are basically natural disaster grades, and it has no effect. Only the government messengers like Jed are a little tired.
If they stayed, the pressure built up at this time would dissipate, so the two sat here for two days, which in turn increased the pressure on the Xingtong Protoss present.
After waiting for a while, there was a commotion outside the door. In the perception of the two, a huge energy source was slowly approaching.
Heboar suddenly opened his eyes and nodded slowly, "Come on."
The next moment, the door was pushed open, Sisko walked in slowly, and everyone's eyes focused on him.
The guards present breathed a sigh of relief, their backs straightened, as if they had found their backbone.
"Yo, isn't this Xiao Xixi, the hero is shining brightly." Han Xiao changed his posture and joked.
Sisko glanced at him and walked to the position opposite the two. Jed, who was sitting here, was excited, and hurriedly got up to move his seat and let Sisko sit down.
"Don't you want to see me, I'm back, what do you want, just say it."
Sisko's tone was solemn.
However, in the next second, Han Xiao suddenly raised his hand, the mechanical structure covered the arm, the mechanical force flashed away, and the machine continued to expand, turning into a huge palm, and slammed forward.
The table and sofa in front of him were all pushed away, and the robotic palm shot Zhong Sisko in front of him, smashing him into the wall!
boom! !
The whole room shook!
"what are you doing?!"
When the incident happened suddenly, the expressions of the guards present changed greatly, and they immediately started to help their leader.
However, at this moment, Hela and the other guards burst into an aura at the same time, and released the past towards the surrounding guards, as if the condensed sense of oppression was full of warnings, and the pioneers of the war field were also on the side. Covet.
The atmosphere was suddenly tense, and at this moment, Sisko's serious voice came from the underside of the mechanical palm.
"Don't do it."
The mechanical palm was compressed one by one and left the wall. At this time, Sisko was embedded in the alloy wall, looking a little embarrassed. He used his mind power to dig himself out of the concave and twisted metal wall and stared at Han Xiao. , did not mean to fight back.
"You almost took my life, hit you, do you have any opinion?" Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"… No."
Sisko took a deep breath, knowing that this was a dismount to kill his prestige, and he had to endure it. He told his angry subordinates not to be impulsive, asked someone to bring new tables and chairs, and sat down in front of the two again.
The surrounding Xingtong Protoss clenched their fists tightly and looked aggrieved.
They can understand Sisko's humiliation and burden-bearing attitude, but they can't help but be disappointed.
Although many of the Star Pupils Protoss who were present knew that the Empire was here to be held accountable, they were still imagining that Sisko could handle such a situation when they were waiting, but the scene at this time broke their fantasy and forced them to accept In reality, their leader, Sisko, came to suffer humiliation this time.
After being seated again, the Scarlet Empire messenger who had been silent for a while finally spoke up, and said lightly: "You participated in the attack on the Lighthouse Star Outpost. Four of the six Transcendent A Grades who were fleeing have been arrested. The Empire wants you and the Star Pupil God Race to give them to you. An explanation."
"What do you want to explain?" Sisko asked in a deep voice.
The imperial envoy tapped the pure white smooth bracelet and summoned a virtual screen with the terms of the agreement on it.
"You have to make a formal public apology and sign this indemnity agreement to show your sincerity of apology. The specific content is in it. If you don't agree, please go to the empire with us for trial, or wait for a false statement. Spirit Sect redemption."
"Indemnity and apology..."
Sisko murmured, he has not been idle these two days, and has been thinking about the intentions of the empire, which is not unexpected.
The imperial envoy didn't keep it secret either, and read out all the terms of the agreement. Many of the terms were too extreme. It was like a lion's mouth.
There are only two choices in front of Sisko, one is to accept the indemnity, the other is to become a prisoner... Of course, there is also a third choice, that is to resist, but if you choose the third way, the empire will not give any face. .
The empire doesn't necessarily need that reparation, but it needs the enemy's soft attitude.
After listening, Sisko nodded.
“…I accept this agreement and will publicly apologize for this action at that time.”
He doesn't care much about astronomical reparations. He is helping Ethereal Religion. Although he fails, Ethereal Religion will not let the younger brother take the blame, otherwise who will help them in the future, so the indemnity will be compensated by Ethereal Religion , basically does not need to spend money from the Star Pupils Protoss.
As for the public apology, it means to be soft, which is what Ethereal Religion wants to see, because Ethereal Religion will never apologize to the empire, but it wants to redeem people, so it needs to express its attitude indirectly, and the Star Pupil Protoss is soft. It is separated by a layer, and euphemism represents the attitude of Ethereal Religion, which can not only ease the recent contradictions to a certain extent, but also make Ethereal not embarrassed, which is a kind of compromise in disguise.
Even if Ethereal Religion covers the Star Pupils Protoss, the Scarlet Empire is also a cosmos grade civilization. In the case of surface conflicts and private negotiations between the two parties, the explanation of the Star Pupils Protoss must be given.
It's just that Sisko knows it himself, but others present may not.
In the eyes of the people around him, his leader agreed to the terms of this disgrace without saying a word, making the faces of each Star Pupil Protoss even more ugly, and the eyes looking at Sisko changed from firmness to complexity.
In this way, it seems that Sisko did not hesitate to sell the interests of the ethnic group in order to protect himself... Of course, they knew that this idea was a big mistake, but they couldn't help but have this idea.
Although he knew that the choice made by Sisko was no problem, Jed and the many guards around him still felt anger and humiliation.
At this time, Heboar said, "Sisko, take your people out of Broken Starlink, you know that we and the empire will not sit back and watch your development, and for you, the best choice is to leave here. "
Broken Starlink has one less Transcendent A Grade, which is good for the rest. Heboar also thinks the same as the Empire in this regard, but shook his head, "No matter what difficulties and obstacles you encounter, As long as we can overcome it, we will not leave our homeland easily."
"Humph." Seeing this, Heboar stopped talking.
At this time, Han Xiao knocked on the table and calmly said: "Then it's our business, you pay the empire indemnity, and you have to say something to me as a victim."
Sisko turned his head and looked over, "What do you want?"
Han Xiao smiled.
"I want to evolve the cube."
Everyone was stunned.
Sisko was puzzled, "Didn't you already stole it?"
"No, you misunderstood what I meant." Han Xiao folded his arms and said lightly: "I want you to release the telepathy to the Evolution Cube, and by the way, declare to the entire universe that you have given me the Evolution Cube."
Sisko's face suddenly changed.
He understood, the bad thing Black Star is going to kill people!
Originally, the Xingtong Protoss thought that Black Star stole their "treasure of the town". If they publicly stated that they would give up the Evolution Cube and said that they would give this thing to Black Star, then what qualifications would they have to condemn others, then all the clansmen would be miserable, This will become a disgrace to the group, the anger of the people will be vented on himself, and the reputation of his leader will plummet.
"You bastard..." Sisko gritted his teeth.
Han Xiao said solemnly: "Because of the Evolution Cube, you have dealt with me again and again, and this attack also started from the Evolution Cube. I won't let you give up on this thing, and similar things will happen in the future, and I haven't settled with you yet about the matter of Avitan's ghost almost bombing Seablue Star... Let's watch this video first."
Saying that, Han Xiao called out the virtual screen, and what was playing on the screen was the video of the guard named Lalem who was responsible for himself two days ago, and Philip had already recorded it.
The video was quickly played, and Sisko's face was ugly.
Han Xiao put away the virtual screen, raised his eyebrows and said: "Offending a Transcendent A Grade, I didn't care about him, but I don't want to hear similar bullshit again, so in order to prevent your clansmen from continuing to think so, I decided to use this The way to solve this problem once and for all, you say."
"What if I don't agree?" Sisko held back his anger.
"It's okay if you don't agree." Han Xiao narrowed his eyes, his aura gradually increased, and slowly said: "It's just... Are you still my opponent now? Have you ever thought that without you as a leader, the Star Pupil God Clan would have How about it?"
At this moment, Sisko realized that the black star in front of him was no longer the guy who was tied with him. He immediately thought of Dylan who was captured by Han Xiao in a blink of an eye, and his heart suddenly became awe-inspiring.
However, he is still unwilling to give up the Evolution Cube. The soul connection between him and the Evolution Cube has brought a certain bonus to his mental strength. If he loses this cosmic treasure, his own combat power will decline. The status of the Spirit Cult will also be reduced.
At this time, the imperial envoy said lightly:
"Black Star means the Empire, if you don't agree... This can be written into the indemnity agreement."
Han Xiao moved in his heart. He has not discussed this matter with the empire, but it is beneficial and harmless. The support of the special envoy of the empire is normal, and there may be the influence of political assets.
Hearing this, Sisko clenched his fists secretly, and let go weakly, his tone was low.
"… I promise."
boom!
A Star Pupil God Race natural disaster grade guard next to him couldn't help it. In his resentment, he slammed the wall hard, smashed a pit, and made a loud bang.
However, the other Star Pupil Protoss were trembling with anger, and no one looked at him at all, and Han Xiao and others directly ignored this person's venting.
Han Xiao nodded, took out the Evolution Cube, and let it float in front of everyone. The small silver cube spun around, attracting everyone's attention.
Heboar's throat twitched imperceptibly, but he didn't let the younger brothers see it.
"Then express your sincerity first and release your telepathy on it."
Sisko closed his eyes, calmed the waves in his heart, and then slowly released his mind power to contact the Evolution Cube, ruthless, and cut off the induction link.
The next moment, his body shook, and his brain clearly sensed that the bridge of the Evolution Cube's continuous feedback of power to him was broken.
The long-term positioning ability has disappeared without a trace.
"Okay." Sisko said very low pressure, trying his best to hide his loss.
Han Xiao took back the Evolution Cube. Transcendent A Grade was very sensitive to energy, and some kind of breath attached to the Evolution Cube did disappear.
"Finally, the hidden danger has been removed..." Han Xiao felt relieved. Although the time-space amber also has the same effect, he always uses the Evolution Cube when he is, which is more once and for all.
However, he kept his mind and threw the square to Fording for inspection. Although Fording was only a natural disaster grade, he couldn't hold back his luck.
"Don't worry, your empire also has Transcendent A Grade psychic masters, it's easy to find out, you don't have to worry about what I did."
Sisko said sullenly: "I have agreed to your conditions. Is there anything else? If there is nothing, please leave the territory of the Star Pupils Protoss immediately."
The imperial envoy stood up, "Okay, we won't bother anymore, remember, the empire will always be watching you, and we are looking forward to your statement."
Sisko gritted his back molars and didn't speak.
"Don't blame me." Han Xiao also got up. "If you fail, you have to pay the price. It's just right, at least you are still alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Xiao suddenly felt that the words had a sense of sight of the villain.
However, in the eyes of the Star Pupil God Race, he is an out-and-out villain.
"I won't fail all the time." Sisko said solemnly.
"You won't live forever." Heboar interjected and walked out of the room first, followed by the imperial envoy.
Stepping out of the door with one foot, Han Xiao glanced back at Sisko, who was sitting motionless, and smiled, "You should deal with public opinion issues first rather than sulking us here."
Sisko didn't talk about this, but asked: "How is Dylan?"
"You still have time to take care of others? It seems that you have a really good relationship with him."
Han Xiao's mouth twitched.
"Don't worry, he's safe now...very safe."
After finishing speaking, Han Xiao waved his hand and said goodbye leisurely, and then walked away.
Watching the group disappear from sight, after a while, Sisko received a report that Han Xiao and others had already boarded the spaceship and took off.
Sitting for a while, Sisko looked up and saw that all the clansmen in the room were staring at him, he couldn't help sighing and stood up.
"Go on, prepare to hold a government press conference... I will attend in person."
Jed hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Black Star used virtual technology to invade many media websites, incite public opinion everywhere, and spread unfavorable remarks against you. Do you want to deal with it first..."
"No, Black Star will stop when he leaves. Although he is a ruthless man, he will not keep playing with such small tricks." Sisko sighed, "And when I issue a statement, you will know... Now this point Public opinion is nothing at all.”
Sisko was saddened at the thought of the backlash the statement would provoke.
However, the situation is stronger than people, and he has no choice. Even if he finds his own backstage, Void Spirit will not break out a new conflict with the empire on such trivial matters as the loss of Sisko's reputation, considering the importance of redemption.
Under the multi-party game, his personal reputation is not something Voidling is concerned about at all.
