106: Kneeling down and begging for cooperation? Too late!

When Lu Chen's declaration, "Establish some new rules," filled with divine indifference and control, clearly echoed in the main control room of the Kunlun Mountain Underground Base, the brilliant, intelligent eyes of heavenly craft instantly burst forth with a terrifying light hotter than a supernova explosion!

[Master, what do you need me to do?]

"It's very simple."

Lu Chen's lips curled into a cold arc.

"Take the previously drafted [Global Energy Lease Agreement] and the invitation letter for the [New Energy Technology Standards Alliance]"

"And send them to the 'smart people' who know what time it is."

"As for those fools still dreaming of 'hegemony'..."

A faint trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Just leave them hanging. I want to see how long their so-called 'strength' lasts without electricity, without chips, and without advanced medical care."

"How long it can last."

The next day.

When that cooperation invitation, full of "goodwill" and "olive branches," was sent under the official name of Pangu Technology to the top-level mailboxes of dozens of "Peace Faction" countries, led by Europe.

The entire "Peace Faction" camp erupted!

"My God! What am I seeing?!"

"The Huaxia people! The Huaxia people actually took the initiative to extend an olive branch to us?!"

"This is wonderful! Truly wonderful! We bet correctly!"

"Quickly! Immediately! Reply to them right now! We are willing! We are willing to join that damn—ah, no, that great [New Energy Technology Standards Alliance]!"

All at once!

The whole of Europe fell into a frenzy of surviving a great disaster!

They all looked like lucky survivors who had snatched the last lifeboat ticket aboard the sinking Titanic!

Their faces were full of relief and pride!

Forming a stark contrast was.

The "War Faction" camp, led by Burns.

When they learned this news.

Every single one of them was stunned!

"What?!"

"The Huaxia people actually bypassed us and cooperated directly with those European weaklings?!"

"H-how is this possible?!"

"How dare they?!"

Burns was so furious his entire body trembled!

He felt like a pitiful orphan abandoned by the entire world!

He couldn't figure it out!

How did he and the powerful Western Alliance behind him sink to this point of being deserted by everyone?!

However, before he could recover from this immense sense of betrayal and fury.

An even more devastating piece of bad news arrived immediately afterward!

"Report, sir!"

A blonde, blue-eyed intelligence officer stumbled in, his face etched with ashen despair!

"It's bad!"

"All of our overseas military bases!"

"They've all lost power!"

Boom!!!

This sentence was like a black bolt of lightning powerful enough to split the entire White House!

It struck Burns and the heads of all the "War Faction" leaders!

They were completely petrified!

"L-lost power?!"

Burns's voice was trembling!

"H-how is this possible?! All our military bases have independent diesel generator sets!"

"It's n-no use..."

The intelligence officer shook his head despairingly.

"All of our oil has been embargoed!"

"Now, all our military bases have become useless piles of scrap metal!"

""

The entire Oval Office fell into a deathly silence.

All the "War Faction" leaders who had just been clamoring to "perish together" with the Huaxia people were now like walking dead men drained of all strength!

They slumped onto their chairs!

Their faces were ashen!

They knew. They were finished.

Their military hegemony, which had ruled the world for centuries!

In front of the Huaxia people's almost god-like "infinite energy"!

Was fragile and utterly vulnerable!

They didn't even last a single day!

"I—I refuse to accept this!"

Burns's hawkish eyes were bloodshot and filled with a gambler's madness!

"I don't believe it!"

"I don't believe that little bastard truly dares to completely break ties with us!"

"Go!"

He suddenly stood up from his chair, like a mad bull about to be slaughtered!

"We're going to Huaxia!"

"I will ask him in front of the whole world!"

"What exactly does he want?!"

"Is he seriously trying to start a Third World War!"

That afternoon.

When Burns and the group of "War Faction" leaders behind him, all looking equally unwilling and furious, aggressively landed at Jinghai City International Airport.

However, they couldn't even get inside the gates of Pangu Technology.

They were ruthlessly blocked by a group of fully armed Dragon Shield Bureau special agents.

"Apologies, gentlemen."

Qin Feng looked at the Western Alliance leaders before him, who he considered mere "clowns," and offered a professionally fake smile.

"Our boss is very busy today. He has no time for visitors."

"Please go back."

"Impudence!"

A hot-tempered Western Alliance General slammed the table and roared:

"Do you know who we are?!"

"We represent the entire Western Alliance here to conduct peace negotiations with you!"

"Is this how you treat your 'guests'?"

"Guests?"

Qin Feng smiled.

It was a smile full of coldness and mockery.

"I only know that."

"For 'guests' who spend every day plotting to assassinate our boss,"

"Huaxia's method of hospitality has always been only one thing."

He paused, then stated clearly, word by word:

"That is a hunting rifle!"

"You!"

The Western Alliance General was instantly left speechless!

His face flushed crimson, like a pig's liver!

Meanwhile, Burns stared intensely at Qin Feng's mocking face.

He knew.

If he couldn't meet Lu Chen today.

They would completely lose their last shred of negotiating leverage!

He took a deep breath.

Then, under the gaze of global media reporters, eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

Slowly, slowly...

He bent his proud form, which represented the supreme hegemony of the Western Alliance...

...knee!

With a "thud"!

He actually knelt down straight at the main entrance of Pangu Technology!

His face, usually as sharp as a hawk's, was filled with humiliation and...

...pleading!

His voice was hoarse and full of endless regret!

"I beg you!"

"Let me see Mr. Lu Chen!"

"I represent the Western Alliance in apologizing to him!"

"We are willing to accept any terms!"

"We only ask..."

"We only ask that you give us a way out!"

However,

Just as he finished his tearful, "heartfelt" plea.

A calm voice, as if untouched by the mundane world, slowly sounded through the loudspeaker system at the building's entrance.

"Apology?"

"Too late."
