Chapter 137
…
Jing Li’s third requirement was to choose the location for releasing Mu Jiao in the atmosphere of Han’e Star, which is 100 kilometers high.
Although the temperature at this altitude is much lower than that on the ground, the cumulus clouds are thick because there is little wind, and visibility to the naked eye is almost zero.
"Jiuyuan, this guy is really smart! During the severe cold season, there is a thick cumulus cloud layer at an altitude of 80-150 kilometers. Although we have made arrangements in secret, the plan was made much earlier after all, and we still don't have enough manpower. The thick fog in the cumulus cloud layer makes it easier for us to hide, but it makes it easier for the enemy to escape. It will be much more difficult to capture him in the cumulus cloud layer, and he might even slip away easily. It's better for us not to agree." Liao Shitang frowned and analyzed after hearing Jing Li's last request.
"He's very clever!... Order the hidden forces to immediately gather around Cumulus Layer 521 area and await my orders, ready to surround and engage at any moment."
Yin Jiuyuan gave the order to the commander of the team he had sent to ambush on the light screen. Without waiting for Liao Sitang to object, Yin Jiuyuan closed his eyes and pondered for a moment. Then he looked at the negotiators on the other light screen and said in a cold voice:
"In half an hour, tell him he agrees, but he must come to the area we designate. Otherwise, we will immediately open fire on him, regardless of any threats. Let him consider whether he wants to leave his life on Frost Star." Yin Jiuyuan's tone was cold and stiff, yet firm. She was just a woman, so he wouldn't compromise too much. But after he finished speaking, his nerves were tense, and his mind was in a mess. What was going on?
Liao Sitang, who had initially thought Yin Jiuyuan had lost his composure for Mu Jiao, was about to try to dissuade him, but Yin Jiuyuan's subsequent words made him swallow his words back. It seemed Mu Jiao wasn't a concern enough to make Jiuyuan give up his principles.
"Yes, Chief."
The negotiator who was in charge of receiving the leader's orders was a young man with outstanding talents, but he had just started in this line of work. When he heard the leader's words, he understood that the leader's meaning was very clear: if the other party did not agree, he would not care about the life or death of the hostages.
I heard that this hostage, Mu Jiao, was the one who poisoned the leader's sister and later escaped from prison. The young man replied stiffly, then immediately stood up to convey the leader's order to the chief negotiator.
After listening to the discussion, the chief negotiator showed a look of relief. Their leader would not unconditionally condone the other party's unreasonable demands like the man from the empire. Under the anxious gaze of the negotiators from Huo Qi's side, he waited leisurely for half an hour before telling Jing Li what Yin Jiuyuan meant.
After he finished speaking, the negotiation experts on Huo Qi's side went crazy and wanted to punch the other side in the face to vent their anger.
His Highness's order was to ensure Miss Mu Jiao's safety at all costs, and the other party's words were likely to trigger the impulsiveness of the person who had captured Miss Mu Jiao. They had all given military orders, and if the negotiations failed, they could not withstand His Highness's wrath!
Inside the negotiation room, the negotiation experts from the Empire looked at the negotiation experts from the Orcs with fiery eyes, and were extremely angry.
…
"Your Highness, calm down. It seems the people who have captured Miss Mu Jiao have no intention of destroying themselves along with her. Miss Mu Jiao is definitely safe. The cumulus cloud layer is 80-150 meters above Han'e Star. If they agree to rescue Miss Mu Jiao there, it will be beneficial for us."
Ze Shiyi watched Huo Qi's face darken after hearing Yin Jiuyuan's call, and he hurriedly tried to persuade him. Then, he secretly rejoiced. He didn't know who the kidnapper of Miss Mu Jiao was, and while he was abominable, his final offer was indeed quite good. Staying in the cumulus layer could greatly reduce casualties during their escape.
"Have all the fake people on the starship been replaced?"
"Yes, Master."
