168: perish together? A hundredfold compensation!

The people of Little Eagle Sauce also fell silent when the issue of compensation was brought up.

Both nations had a deep understanding of the Alien Commander's greed.

Last time, it was just a phone call, and he took the opportunity to extort a large amount of resources from them.

And those seven nations, they did nothing, merely joined the Anti-Extraterrestrial Alliance, and were extorted ten times the resources.

But this time, they provoked him!

Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people were a bit afraid to imagine what price they would have to pay this time to prevent the Alien Commander from pursuing the matter.

Just as these thoughts emerged, Butler One transmitted the amount of compensation they needed.

But after reading the compensation list provided by Butler One, Unpretty Leader angrily smashed the tablet in his hand!

"Fuck! Fuck!"

"This is going too far!"

"This greedy Commander is going too far!"

"He actually wants us to increase all our resources by a hundredfold as compensation and send them to Tiangong Base!"

"This is to drain all our resources!!"

"He's not giving us a way to live!"

Unpretty Leader was panting heavily, his eyes wide and round, like a large water buffalo.

All resources increased by a hundredfold!

They simply couldn't afford this price!

Because, after a hundredfold increase, there would be basically nothing left in their warehouses.

"Let's fight him! He's not giving us a way to live, so we can't just sit here and wait to die!"

The more Unpretty Leader thought about it, the angrier he became!

"Fight? Fight with what? Fight with our heads?"

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader, however, snorted coldly: "We don't even know what he looks like, and his base is on the moon. What weapons do we have that can reach the moon?"

"We can transport soldiers up there! At worst, we'll perish together with him!" Unpretty Leader said, panting heavily.

"Are you joking?"

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader immediately sneered.

"Not to mention that our spacecraft cannot transport multiple people at once, even if it could, it would probably be directly shot down during the transport process!"

"Don't forget how our first United spacecraft disappeared; it was definitely the Alien Commander's doing!"

Unpretty Leader's expression changed.

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader continued to sneer: "Even if we take a step back and successfully transport soldiers and weapons to the moon, can we really perish together with him?"

"His Ecological Base has millions of Robots!"

"The self-destruct device we installed on the lunar exploration satellite, although not very powerful, that's relative to super thermal weapons. In reality, the power of the self-destruction is enough to blow a soldier wearing the most advanced bulletproof vest into powder; its power is no weaker than a bomb!"

"But the Robot responsible for cleaning suffered no damage at all!"

"Even on the ground, only a shallow mark was left!"

"With such defensive power, what do we have to perish together with him?"

"I'm afraid we wouldn't even get to the Commander before being torn to shreds by the million-strong Robot army!"

These words made Unpretty Leader's face completely change, becoming extremely ugly.

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader glanced at him again, his tone softening slightly, and said: "If he came to our home turf, we might have a fighting chance, but if we go to Tiangong Base, that's pure suicide."

"So we just hand over all our resources to him?" Unpretty Leader gritted his teeth, extremely unwilling.

"It's fine not to, but then, do you have any better way to prevent his retaliation?" The Little Eagle Sauce Leader snorted coldly.

"We..." Unpretty Leader still wanted to be stubborn.

But he really couldn't think of any current ability they had to withstand the consequences of not paying the compensation resources.

Just as Unpretty and the others were still hesitating, Butler One sent another message.

"I'll give you three minutes to consider and tell me how long you need to prepare the materials for compensation."

As the words fell, before Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people could speak, Butler One suddenly transmitted a holographic map.

And on it, the military deployments of both Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce, as well as industrial information of important areas, were clearly marked.

In an instant, Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people all broke out in a cold sweat.

Their own countries' highest-level secrets were completely exposed on Butler One's map.

What this meant, there was no need to say more.

Without even thinking, they knew that Butler One sending such a map at this time most likely meant that if they refused to pay the compensation resources, the next targets of attack would be the places marked on the map.

And that was indeed the case.

After sending the map information for Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people to see, Butler One left a detached remark.

"Now, you have two and a half minutes left."

"Life or death, you choose."

Silence.

A deathly silence.

Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people were all startled by the information displayed on the holographic map.

Their respective national secrets were like naked bodies before Tiangong Base, thoroughly scrutinized.

If a real fight broke out...

If Tiangong Base launched targeted strikes, they would be instantly paralyzed!

What's the point of resisting then!

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader looked at Unpretty Leader, sighing:

"Butler One, please tell Commander that we are willing to compensate, but this time the resources for compensation are a bit much, and we need some time to prepare. The compensation resources can probably be in place within twelve hours, and then we will launch carrier rockets to send the resources to the moon."

Upon hearing this, Unpretty Leader's mouth opened, as if he wanted to say something, but ultimately he remained silent.

Butler One nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, then, twelve hours. In twelve hours, I need to see your carrier rocket with materials launch on time. If there is a delay, then it will be considered that you have given up on compensation, and our side will directly retaliate without further notice."

"Okay, we..."

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader still wanted to say something, but Butler One directly cut off the communication.

His words were abruptly cut short, and then he couldn't help but curse: "A damned Robot, so arrogant!"

"Heh heh." Unpretty Leader sneered.

"Hmph, what's so funny? Hurry up and prepare the compensation resources."

The Little Eagle Sauce Leader snorted coldly.

"He didn't say this time that we each had to pay a hundredfold, he probably forgot. We'll each bear half; although it hurts, it's still within an acceptable range."

When he said this, the Little Eagle Sauce Leader felt a sense of relief.

However, they didn't know that this was intentional on Lin Yang's part, and not a forgotten detail.

After all, having extorted so many resources from their two nations, it was clear that the remaining resources in their two nations wouldn't be much.

If he really demanded that each of their two nations provide a hundredfold compensation, they probably wouldn't be able to gather it even if they emptied their entire national treasuries.

Lin Yang wanted the resources in their two nations' hands.

He didn't intend to truly force them into a corner for a desperate struggle.

If he pushed them too hard, they might rather destroy the resources than hand them over, which would be a loss rather than a gain.

After all, he currently didn't have enough energy to send the Robot army into Blue Star, and Apocalypse activating war mode consumed even more energy.

If he pushed them to a dead end and they refused to comply even at the cost of death, he would not only be helpless but also expose his current true strength.

Anyway, after these few harsh extortions, the rare resources of their two nations were already running low, and their development would be restricted for a considerable period of time.

So there was no need to push them too hard.

When energy was abundant later, suppressing them would be easy; letting them jump around a few more days temporarily wouldn't matter.

"Congratulations, Host, you have received new mission rewards!"

Suddenly, Lin Yang heard the long-awaited system prompt.
