Negotiation location.

At the junction of the 15th settlement of the Lanwei people and the virgin forest to the west.

The negotiator of the Lanwei people is a temporary diplomat named "Suba" - he was previously a sacrificial elder and had a lot of research on tree gods.

The representative of the Tree God is a giant sacrificial tree that is as old as 150,000 years old - of course, this tree is one of the many clones of the Tree God.

Escorted by a company of soldiers, he arrived at the negotiation location and confirmed that there were no ambush around him. Among the thousands of vines hanging from the sacrificial tree, Suba lowered his tail and connected the nerve tendril at the end with one of the vines. Connected, began to communicate with each other.

On the ground under Suba's feet, there was a projection communication device. After a light curtain appeared in the air, the light curtain split into two. The figures of the gods appeared on the left, and Zutai, the leader of the Yilanwei people, appeared on the right. Headed by the senior management of Lanwei people.

Negotiations officially begin.

"Why do you want to destroy this world? Why do you want to destroy this beautiful home?"

Borrowing Suba's words, the tree god first questioned him with anger that was almost accusatory.

"We're not destroying it, we're just slowly improving it... If we were going to destroy it, we would have done it twenty years ago, it was very simple for us."

Yun Xinghe shook his head and said lightly.

Lan Xiulong beside him nodded casually. Indeed, it was very simple to destroy this planet. Just launch a few missiles at the tree god's body and it would have been done long ago.

The tree god choked and became a little angry: "This is not the place you should come to, go back to where you should go! This is not your home, this is my home, mine! Everything here belongs to me... you These damn robbers!"

robber?

Yun Xinghe smiled slightly, yes, to a certain extent, they came to Pandora with some ulterior motives and came for certain resources with impure ideas.

But for this world, and even this universe, there is an iron-clad law.

"Herbivores eat grass, but for grass, herbivores are not robbers; carnivores eat herbivores, and for herbivores, carnivores are not robbers. They are just necessary for survival."

"Similarly, to this world that you have dominated and controlled for countless years, you, the God of Trees, are a god, not a robber."

"So, in front of higher civilizations, you, the tree god, are just a taller tree, not that special. We can regard you as a good tree that is beneficial to the environment, or we can regard you as a tree. the material out of which furniture is made...or, see you as a source of evil that must be destroyed.”

As Yun Xinghe spoke, the contemptuous and disdainful look in his eyes was like ten thousand soul-nailing steel needles, piercing into the heart of the tree god.

anger.

Extremely angry!

Bastard, you dare to underestimate me, you deserve to underestimate me?

Go to hell, go to hell!

As the supreme being who has dominated this planet for hundreds of millions of years, the tree god's supreme arrogance and strong self-esteem were trampled on countless feet as if they were being thrown into a mire.

but……

Even though there are countless cruel words in his heart and countless revenge plans, the tree god understands who is the strong and who is the weak in this negotiation?

Combined with what he has done over the past billions of years, the tree god understands one truth better than any wise man: in front of the weak, the strong can do whatever they want.

The so-called robbers and thieves are just insults given by the weak and incompetent and have no meaning whatsoever.

"What will it take for you to leave my territory? What do you want to get before you give up?"

The tree god let out a soft word and asked Yun Xinghe to put forward the conditions for leaving.

This is what I've been waiting for!

Yun Xinghe smiled slightly, opened a data form in front of him, and said: "Over the years, we have been exploring the total reserves of UN elements in Pandora, as well as the largest mineable amount without damaging the environment and ecology. measurement and got some data.”

"The total reserves are approximately 11 billion mole units; the maximum recoverable amount is approximately 2.5 billion mole units."

"We also found that about 70% of the amount that can be mined is concentrated near your mountain of gods. In other words, Mr. Tree God, you are the richest individual on the planet and the one that bandits want to rob the most. .”

"So far, we have only taken away 10 million units of UN elements from your hands, which is less than one percent of your total wealth."

Through a set of data, Yun Xinghe nakedly expressed his purpose.

Floating stone!

"impossible!"

"No way!"

Suba's face, possessed by the consciousness of the tree god, changed wildly, and he was shocked. These uninvited guests actually paid attention to his lifeblood!

As the supreme master who has ruled this planet for hundreds of millions of years, how could the tree god not understand the value of floating elements? Why is it unclear what those floating elements mean to him?

everything!

Everything about him, including his ability to dominate all things, is based on this thing.

Floating elements!

He called it the "divine stone."

"I won't give you any of the sacred stones, not even the smallest one."

"Never give it!"

The tree god emphasized in a firm tone.

"20%."

Yun Xinghe raised two fingers and said: "We only want one-fifth of the wealth you have. If you don't give it to us, we plan to take it ourselves, and we will take even more."

"If you continue to be stubborn and stubbornly resist, we will completely destroy you! Take away everything from you! We have even found the best candidate to replace you."

A murderous look appeared in his eyes.

What?

The tree god's heart was violently shaken again.

destroy? replace?

Could it be...

For a moment, the tree god's mind was as chaotic as linen.

Yun Xinghe and his friends looked at each other and smiled.

In fact, as early as the beginning, they conducted a large number of calculations and analyzes on computers to analyze what impact the disappearance of the tree god would have on the planet's natural environment, biological species, atmospheric climate and other aspects. It would be positive. , or is it a reverse effect?

The conclusion drawn is not very optimistic.

The natural environment will undergo certain changes, but not much; about 30% of biological species will disappear, and more than 90% of large animals will have degraded intelligence; the atmospheric climate may become severely cold in the next few hundred years.

Therefore, once the tree god, the core element of the planet's surface, is destroyed by force, to a certain extent, the planet will also be destroyed.

But after more than 20 years of analysis and calculation, as well as the improvement of the biological species library, and the emergence of the tree elders as substitutes for some of the functions of the tree god... Now, even if the tree god is completely destroyed, the chaos and imbalance caused, It will be completely rebalanced within fifty years.

Therefore, in front of the tree god, Yun Xinghe not only made a request for one-fifth of the floating stone, but the next two requests were even more excessive.

"The Lanwei people will become the second masters on the land. One-seventh of the land will be allocated to the Lanwei people as a land for them to thrive. Even after the Lanwei people enter the forest, you are not allowed to control the beasts. As long as the Lanwei people do not destroy the forests that are not within their territory, you are not allowed to attack the Lanwei people in any form."

"In addition, you cannot destroy the sacrificial tree with self-awareness, and there must be more than ten self-awarenesses on the land you control. Call it an 'Elder Tree', and each elder tree The area controlled by trees shall not be less than 5 million square kilometers.”

Yun Xinghe didn't know how many self-awareness bodies there were among the millions of sacrificial trees, but the tree elder said: There are definitely not less than 10 existences like him, and there are more self-awareness bodies. , controlled or imprisoned by the tree god in various ways. There may be hundreds of these consciousnesses.

All in all, Yun Xinghe made a total of three requests:

One-fifth of the reserves of floating stone.

2. Give the Lanwei people one-seventh of their land territory, about 50 million square kilometers.

3. Appoint more than ten free consciousness bodies as "Elder Trees" to reduce the rights of the tree god and compress its scope of control.

Each of these three conditions is extremely harsh, and each one makes the tree god feel extremely humiliated and angry!

I would rather destroy than agree!

As soon as the idea of ​​perishing together came up, the tree god began to waver violently.

Which is more important, to survive cowardly or to perish with dignity, is a question worth thinking about.

The existence of the tree god has exceeded hundreds of millions of years. It stands to reason that it can live longer than some hard-to-corrupt stones, and it is not so greedy for life and afraid of death.

But the wisdom accumulated over hundreds of millions of years allowed him to realize the value of survival, understand the meaning of existence, and become more attached to the feeling of dominating everything.

It is really difficult for him to choose destruction.

Yun Xinghe watched with some amusement. Through Suba's body, he could see the tangled and changing expressions on the tree god's face. He was not anxious at all, because the initiative was entirely on his side.

No matter how harsh the conditions he puts forward, the tree god has to agree no matter how hard he wants to agree - without any discount.

In short, his goal will definitely be achieved!

I started compiling my manuscript today and it will start to explode on the 22nd.
