Chapter 1692: Chapter 539: Declaration of War_2
“Alright, we’ll reduce it by 200 billion for you! What about Miss Monica?”
Isawen looked at Monica with great pride.
“Dream on!”
Monica glared at Isawen.
“Lord Isawen, we won’t agree to it.”
Vox stepped forward and said in a deep voice.
“No matter, if you don’t agree, then you don’t agree. We’ve always been fair, you may choose as you wish.”
Isawen was not angry at all.
This group of people is like lambs to be slaughtered, they will cave in sooner or later.
At this moment, Angdu immediately accused Vox, saying.
“Vox, even Princess Fen Ni has stepped forward, how can you be so selfish, disregarding everyone’s lives!”
“Exactly!”
Several Awahog Kingdom nobles present accused him one after another.
Listening to their accusations, Vox also fell silent.
At this time, Country Master Hotega rebuked his subordinates.
“Enough!”
Upon hearing Country Master Hotega speak, Angdu and others shut their mouths.
“Your Majesty.”
Vox looked at Country Master Hotega with some emotion.
“No need to say more.”
Although Hotega was disappointed in Vox, he would not go so far as to force his trusted subordinate.
Isawen coldly smiled as he watched this scene.
Just then, a commotion suddenly erupted at the entrance of the reception hall!
“Make way!”
A voice full of murderous aura sounded.
The many soldiers guarding the entrance retreated in panic.
Isawen, Monica, and several people from Neutral Country turned their heads to look.
They saw Su Ming, wearing his Grand General Uniform, striding in with Ankaga, Zhang Yi, and others, his expression indifferent.
“Did I see that wrong?”
“Federation General!”
…
The crowd whispered in panic.
Isawen’s face showed extreme terror upon seeing Su Ming. He remembered vividly the time Su Ming and Mia smashed up his club and personally beat him.
Now Su Ming had become a general, someone he could not afford to offend.
His body involuntarily trembled.
At this moment, Roli approached Su Ming in a panic to greet him.
“Lord Su Ming!”
Su Ming ignored Roli and Isawen, and under everyone’s gaze, walked straight to Monica and stopped.
Looking at Su Ming standing before her, Monica briefly lost her senses, feeling as if the world had become somewhat unreal.
Vox and the others felt joyful but dared not approach Su Ming.
Su Ming apologized to Monica.
“Sorry, I was navigating in Subspace just now, so I didn’t receive your calls. But as soon as the ship ended the superluminal flight, I received your message and came immediately; I hope I’m not late?”
Upon hearing this, Country Master Hotega and others showed immense joy, like drowning people seeing hope.
Even the people from Neutral Country looked enviously.
Monica came back to her senses, took a deep breath, smiled at Su Ming, and said.
“No.”
“Hmm, did you encounter any trouble?”
Su Ming nodded slightly and asked.
“Well, we wish to enter the Federation for protection. But they asked us to pay 5000 billion Federation Coins or property—otherwise…”
Monica briefly explained the situation to Su Ming.
Roli’s face turned green instantly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to explain.
“My lord, it’s all a misunderstanding. I really didn’t think she truly knew you. When she mentioned you, I also asked her to call you to verify, but the call didn’t go through….”
Su Ming glanced coldly at Roli.
Roli felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and the words to say disappeared from his mouth.
Seeing this, Isawen grew more frightened and attempted to flee.
“I never said you could leave.”
Su Ming said coldly.
Isawen’s body trembled violently, and he timidly looked at Su Ming.
“My lord….”
At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded as Lord Rosaga and Vice City Lord Max came over in haste.
They had just received a message that Admiral Su Ming suddenly docked at Black Flame Star and was heading to the reception hall.
“General Su Ming, what brings you here without notice? I would have personally welcomed you.”
Lord Rosaga said with a beaming smile.
“Lord City Master Rosaga, you’re too kind.”
Su Ming glanced at him and spoke calmly.
“General Su Ming, have any of my men offended you?”
Rosaga saw Su Ming’s indifferent tone, his expression stiffening. He looked around at the tense atmosphere and quickly asked.
“It’s nothing, I just didn’t expect that besides charging protection fees, Black Flame Star offers discounts if women are involved. And it was extended to my friend; I’ve truly witnessed it firsthand.”
Su Ming replied flatly.
He had known how dark Black Flame Star was for years; they just shouldn’t mess with him.
Rosaga’s face darkened instantly as he turned to look at Vice City Lord Max.
“Max, is this how you handled the task I gave you?”
Max immediately looked at Isawen and kicked him to the ground angrily.
“Rascal! Who gave you the nerve to act like this, tarnishing the Federation’s reputation completely?”
“I’m sorry!”
Isawen apologized in a panic.
Su Ming glanced at Isawen, knowing full well that people like him didn’t truly regret; they were just scared.
Lord Rosaga turned to Su Ming and said.
“General Su Ming, I truly had no knowledge of this, it was all created by subordinates below me!”
“Alright, Lord City Master Rosaga, I have no objection to charging a protection fee, nor do I have the authority to intervene as it’s within your rights. But for all other shady business, it should come to an end.”
