Looking at the serious expressions on the three people's faces, Han Xiao shook his finger.

"You don't want to?" Ma Bruce's eyes tightened.

"No, I mean...not enough."

Han Xiao's face was calm, but he secretly curled his lips.

If you want to be thick-skinned, you are still thick-skinned. Not long ago, you were vigorously targeting the Transcendent A Class. Now you change your attitude and join forces. Although the motive is right, this kind of behavior does not treat us as the Transcendent A Class.

Chamber pot, it comes and goes when you call it.

Since the blockade was issued, the Association has suffered a lot of losses. Even though everyone is now on the same page with external relations, after all, Yggdrasil has not come over yet. It is not a good thing for the three major civilizations to get assistance from the Association without providing substantial benefits.

.

His identity is multi-faceted, and it is his duty to fight for the interests of the members of the association. He cannot accept the "kidnapping" of the three major civilizations.

"Then what are your conditions?"

The three of them squinted their eyes and leaned forward a little.

Private opinions are private opinions, and business matters are public matters. Substantial interests are involved. Even if the three of them admire Han Xiao's contribution, they will not let the other party ask for excessive prices.

Perhaps for the sake of unanimously sharing World Tree information with the outside world and Black Star actively sharing information about World Tree, they can make concessions as appropriate, but if the conditions are too excessive, the three of them cannot agree.

Han Xiao nodded and said: "Working together is the general trend, but I hope you understand that I am the president of the association after all, and I have to give an explanation to the members... The blockade ban has caused considerable losses to many Transcendent A Grade members. First, the blockade ban needs to be lifted.

And make up for the losses of Transcendent A Grade members during this period, what do you think?"

"Can."

The three of them nodded, this was already in the plan.

Han Xiao continued: "Secondly, the association needs to be compensated with additional resources such as work loss fees and mental loss fees. In the subsequent cooperation, the three major civilizations must also continue to provide resources. Although we all have a common enemy, you are the ones who have already

As the ruler of the exploration universe, we will help you protect your territory. It is impossible to work in vain for free."

"That's no problem, the number can be discussed."

The three of them pondered for a moment and had no objections.

Han Xiao paused and said slowly: "The last point is that the three major civilizations must recognize the authoritative status of the Transcendent A Grade Association. It is no longer a private organization, but an official organization of superpowers, recognizing our independent nature.

Recognize the sanctity of our territory, allow us to openly teach all superpower knowledge, have the same political status as higher civilizations, enjoy the same rights, and write it into the universal interstellar law... In addition, at the edge of the explored universe, the Association

We must have a territory with a high degree of autonomy.”

Hearing this, the three of them frowned secretly.

An important factor that allows them to openly suppress the Transcendent A Grade Association is that the nature of the association is a non-governmental organization. It does not enjoy the rights of a series of interstellar general laws such as the "Peace Treaty". No private force has ever enjoyed high civilization in politics.

Equal treatment, even for powerful Transcendent A Grade forces, is the first of its kind.

This is not a verbal agreement, but written into the law. The Transcendent A Grade Association wants to become a truly authoritative alliance of superpowers. Once they admit it, the association's skyrocketing reputation will almost monopolize the private superpower community, and it will be protected by general laws.

, resulting in many suppression methods being unable to be used against the association, which is very troublesome.

At the same time, the Transcendent A Grade Association also requires autonomous territory with civilized treatment. The nature is different from the respective power territories of Transcendent A Grade. It is almost the meaning of founding a country. It is also located at the edge of the explored universe. It is estimated that it has a strategy that can advance and retreat.

The intention is to prevent liquidation from happening again in the future.

Han Xiao waited for a moment, and when he saw the three people looking thoughtful, he clicked his tongue and added: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else. This is the association's request for its own safety, and I believe the three major civilizations should be willing to meet it.

The association’s willingness to protect itself, right?”

He almost made the subtext explicit. If you have been hesitating for so long, are you thinking that the cunning rabbit will be killed as a lackey, you stinky brother!

The three of them looked at each other and quickly exchanged opinions in the private channel.

Soon, Mabrus knocked on the table and said:

"If the World Tree information is correct, we agree to this condition. At the same time, if a foreign war breaks out and the association needs to make full efforts, we will draw up detailed terms later."

"That's good. Once you fulfill your agreement, we will have more basis for cooperation."

Han Xiao nodded, knowing clearly that this was a potential exchange of interests and risk game.

Even if we know that foreign enemies exist, life must continue. The three major civilizations will definitely preset the situation after repelling foreign enemies. At that time, the problem of the expansion of the number of Transcendent A Grades will still have to be solved. Agreeing to this request will increase the number of people in the future reckoning.

Difficulty.

However, due to the pressure from foreign enemies, the three major civilizations have to stabilize the association and make a certain degree of compromise. If they do not agree to this condition, their intentions will be too obvious. Even if they join forces with the association, they will be in the same bed with different dreams, and there will be a lot of instability.

It is equivalent to Black Star's conspiracy, making it difficult for them to refuse even though they know the consequences.

And the most important thing is that Black Star is an unexpected insider, which disrupts the pace of the three major civilizations. Stabilizing Black Star himself is even more important than stabilizing the association.

The three of them thought about it for a while and finally agreed. In addition to compromise, they were also exploring another possibility. Rather than internal liquidation, it was a more appropriate way to let the external enemies reduce the number of Transcendent A Grades.

The Transcendent A Grade Association suffered heavy casualties in foreign wars. This is the most ideal result, far better than civil strife. It not only temporarily alleviates the problem of individual power imbalance, but also maximizes the value of these Transcendent A Grade deaths. In this case

, the consequences of agreeing to Black Star's request will be greatly reduced, and there will be enough time to think about a solution before the next time the amount of individual power is imbalanced.

And Han Xiao also knows the meaning of the three major civilizations. This is where the game is played. Since the threat of World Tree is too great, he does not intend to do nothing and cause the Transcendent A Grade Association to suffer heavy casualties, which is also his goal.

The core reason for the unlimited recovery of the Sanctuary is that he claims that there is only one chance, and only by exposing the truth can he complete the shock to the three major civilizations.

If you want to kill people, you have to fight a civil war or a foreign war. It is impossible to let Transcendent A Grade commit collective suicide.

In contrast, it is natural to maximize profits by fighting foreign wars. No keys are wasted, no internal strength is wasted, and fists are shown.

As long as they see the effect of the Sanctuary's resurrection, without experiencing it personally, the three major civilizations will understand the importance and develop a strong rat-defying weapon... which not only fights against the World Tree, but also shocks the three major civilizations, killing two birds with one stone.

By the way, he plans to mix in some sanctuary key materials that are difficult to collect into the resource compensation list. With the wealth of the three major civilizations, he will definitely be able to get them.

It is equivalent to using other people's materials to make your own "weapons" and then using them to threaten others. This is very disgusting.

It was a foregone conclusion that World Tree would contact them in advance, so Han Xiao responded accordingly, flexibly adjusted his plan, and pursued maximization of interests. Naturally, the three leaders in front of him were not clear about it, and they may have mistakenly thought that he was pursuing the security guarantee of peaceful coexistence.

Both sides had their own thoughts and reached a temporary consensus.

"Also, don't disclose the matter of World Tree Civilization to the outside world for the time being. The fewer insiders, the better, otherwise it will lead to chaos." Mabrus asked.

"Of course I know."

Han Xiao nodded.

In previous lives, the battle against Yggdrasil relied on advanced civilizations, armed forces, and groups of superpowers. Ordinary people were basically the targets of protection, and their use was limited. Now it is not at the level where everyone is a soldier. If you know it, it will only cause trouble.

After saying that, Han Xiao paused and said: "By the way, since you invited me to be a special security consultant, I have to check this matter. I need to share your exploration report on the World Tree Civilization."

"no problem."

Mabrus agreed readily this time. After all, he did not have as much information as Black Star. This was also one of the assistance they needed.

Han Xiao quickly received the research report on wormhole data from the Imperial Academy of Sciences and started reading it immediately.

He returned as a special security consultant in order to supervise the progress of the three major civilizations' exploration and grasp the first-hand situation. Currently, he is the only outsider qualified to intervene in the three major civilizations' exploration of the World Tree.

Browsing through it quickly, Han Xiao's eyes were fixed on the first detection report. Next to the conclusion "It is certain that an unknown universe-level civilization exists" there was a questionable instruction from the review department. Looking back at the data, he found that it did not seem to be possible.

Come to this conclusion directly.

"Hey, what happened to the researcher who wrote the conclusion? These data cannot prove that the other party is a cosmic-level civilization. Although he was right, it is too arbitrary." Han Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"So we suspended him. It was too lax." Ma Bruce nodded.

Han Xiao's heart moved and he had a vague guess.

Is this guy doing it on purpose?

‘Little people can also change the times.’ He sighed softly and sighed in his heart.

After calming down, Han Xiao pretended to be joking and said: "No matter what, I have made great achievements accidentally, but I can't let others feel cold."

Mabrus glanced at him and said nothing.

Seeing this, Han Xiao smiled, dropped the topic and got down to business.

"Based on the current progress, I have a few suggestions..."

…

The meeting lasted for several hours. After both parties reached a consensus on "keeping in touch frequently", Han Xiao released the remote projection and returned to the office.

Han Xiao exhaled, rubbed his cheeks, and murmured:

"Fortunately, the civil war has been avoided after all, and the targeting of the three major civilizations has finally stopped temporarily..."

He knows that it is impossible for the three major civilizations to completely put down their hostility, but at their level, there are basically no iron-headed children who will not look back until they hit the south wall. They all know priorities. As long as everyone has reached an agreement, they can be at war with each other yesterday and give up today.

The relationship between the two is not important at all, it only depends on whether there is demand, and external enemies have always been a factor that diverts internal conflicts.

The two sides have not turned enemies into friends. At most, they have become temporary partners of cooperation, working together to resolve the main common contradiction.

In fact, the biggest obstacle for the three major civilizations and associations to stop making peace was Han Xiao, the powerful president. But now that he has agreed to cooperate, most of the resistance has disappeared, and he can be regarded as single-handedly promoting the alliance between the two parties.

"Starting from today, the situation has entered a new stage of unanimously facing the outside world. The enemy is overt and we are covert. We must start preparing for war against the World Tree Civilization."

Han Xiao cheered up and felt awe-inspiring.
