Chapter 723: Chapter 723 Threat _1 Chapter 723: Chapter 723 Threat _1 “How are the negotiations going regarding the compensation that my subordinates discussed with you?”
Suddenly, Greg Jensen spoke coldly, “You have four more minutes to consider. After four minutes, whose ho the nuclear weapons will fall into will be up to your luck!”
“You! How dare you use nuclear weapons?! Owen Anderson, do you not know that the use of all nuclear weapons has been strictly forbidden internationally? If you act rashly, you will only offend everyone in the world!”
Stephen gritted his teeth, unable to resist reminding him.
He knew very well that the new type of nuclear weapons produced by the Liberty Alliance were more powerful than traditional ones. Just one of them could set a country’s economy back a hundred years!
Even Mike Johnson chid in, “Besides, the conditions you’re asking for are far too excessive, aren’t they? Where are we supposed to get so much money and resources from?”
In the room, only Shaun Sims of Cherrywood remained silent, or rather, he was uneasy. When it ca to nuclear weapons, he didn’t dare to speak lightly, afraid of offending the other party.
Seeing them threaten and prevaricate, Greg Jensen said coldly,
“Don’t I know exactly what the three great alliances weigh? I’m only asking for so much because that’s all you have!
If you don’t agree, then there’s nothing I can do… but… you will have to take responsibility for every word you say in refusal!”
With that, he took out his phone, dialed Fox’s number, and spoke into it, “Fox, these three don’t seem to agree to the compensation.”
“They don’t agree? Lord Dragon King, then show them a nuclear weapon first. I refuse to believe that after one explosion, they would remain indifferent!”
“That’s what I was thinking. So people won’t shed tears until they see the coffin.”
As the two conversed, Greg Jensen mockingly stared at the three individuals including Shaun Sims.
So much so that the three of them exchanged glances, unable to make a decision.
Over the phone, Fox asked excitedly, “Lord Dragon King, just say the word—who should we target first? With your command, I’ll launch it right now!”
“Since you refuse to compensate, then let’s say, who wants to enjoy the first nuclear weapon?”
Greg Jensen struck at their hearts, directly throwing the question to the three including Shaun Sims.
None of them spoke; their faces turned from pale to flushed. Unspoken was the fact that in their hearts, they still did not believe the people of Dragon King’s Palace would dare to boldly defy international regulations and use nuclear weapons.
“No one’s talking? Fine, then let’s decide by drawing lots!”
Greg Jensen laughed, noticing a chessboard not far away. With a gesture, three chess pieces, representing chariot, knight, and cannon, landed in front of him.
“The chariot represents Cherrywood, the knight represents the West Union, and the cannon represents the Liberty Alliance. Heh, since you can’t make a decision, I’ll make it for you!”
As he spoke, he flipped the pieces over, shuffled them randomly, then picked one and turned it back over.
The three widened their eyes, only to see that the chosen piece bore the character “chariot”.
“Fox, Cherrywood,” Greg Jensen simply uttered five words.
Fox imdiately responded, “Yes! I’ll send a nuclear weapon to Cherrywood right away!”
“No! Please don’t!”
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Shaun Sims couldn’t remain calm any longer and began to shout,
“Owen Anderson, I… Cherrywood surrenders. I… I will announce to the world right now that Cherrywood is defeated by Dragon King’s Palace, and at the sa ti, agrees to the compensation!”
There was no choice, Cherrywood had been bombed twice with nuclear weapons already, causing an indelible impact on the nation.
Even now, the re ntion caused a change of color; the trauma that nuclear weapons inflicted on their citizens was imnse.
After decades, they had only just started to recover their economy sowhat, and now they had to endure another nuclear bombardnt—how could they afford it?
Greg Jensen chuckled and ignored Shaun Sims, continuing to flip over the second chess piece, “Knight”. He said to the fox:
“Then let’s move on to the next one, the West Union! With such a vast territory, let’s not be stingy, and give them two!”
“Yes, sir! I’ll make the arrangents right away!”
“Wait… wait a minute!”
The next second, Mike Johnson clenched his teeth tightly and hesitated for quite a while before he said, “I also surrender and am willing to accept reparations!”
He could tell that Owen Anderson wasn’t joking with them, this madman, with barely a dozen people, dared to attack the Liberty Alliance. He surely wouldn’t lack the guts to use nuclear weapons!
Therefore, he didn’t dare to take the risk and gamble the fate of a nation.
“Then only the Liberty Alliance is left!”
Greg Jensen then turned to look at Stephen, his voice filled with playfulness:
“I’ll give you only three seconds to make a decision. After three seconds, no matter what you say, the nukes will be launched!”
“One… Two…”
“I… I surrender!”
Before the word “three” could be said, Stephen could no longer bear the pressure and, just like the two beside him, had no choice but to obediently opt for surrender.
“Hmm, I want to see all the money I asked for in my account within half an hour! In addition, within one day, I want all the weapons and resources I demanded delivered to the Eight countries in Southeast. A minute late, and you’ll all be served with nukes!”
Facing this demand, the three of them were furious but dared not speak, only able to swallow their anger and accept it.
In the ti that followed, the Liberty Alliance, Cherrywood, and the West Union each announced to the world that they surrendered to the Dragon King’s Palace and were willing to pay reparations.
These ssages quickly spread to every corner of the world, sparking a flurry of discussions—
“My God, my God! The Liberty Alliance actually surrendered to the Dragon King’s Palace of the Eight countries in Southeast? Am I dreaming?”
“It’s true! For a whole half day, many buildings in Helic City of the Liberty Alliance were destroyed, and not a single legion in the military bases survived!”
“Is the Dragon King’s Palace that fierce? Three major alliances, led by the world’s superpower, all defeated by them!”
“The world order is going to change! Who exactly is this Dragon King?”
“It’s said they held over a thousand nuclear weapons from the Liberty Alliance, and that’s why the three alliances had no choice but to surrender!”
“Aweso! Over a thousand nukes… They could probably flatten the whole world!”
“Cherrywood also suffered big losses this ti; their shrines were burnt, and their defense team was completely wiped out!”
“Hahaha, serves Cherrywood right for sticking their nose in everything. They got their couppance this ti, didn’t they?”
“Can’t help but say it, the moves of the Dragon King’s Palace are truly gratifying! It’s just uncertain whether the three major alliances will seek revenge later!”
“…”
The fa of the Dragon King’s Palace spread through the streets and alleys all over the world, their notoriety soaring dramatically and becoming known to every household.
After all, they were the first in history to forcefully make the Liberty Alliance along with the West Union and Cherrywood bow their heads in defeat.
More and more people speculated that in the following years, the economy of the Eight countries in Southeast, overseen by the Dragon King’s Palace, would surely develop rapidly.
Therefore, so businessn with keen minds made the decision to pre-emptively deploy their business strategies in the Eight countries in Southeast, staking their claims early and moving their business there one step ahead of others.
It can be said that slowly, the eyes of the entire world began to shift towards the territory of the Eight countries in Southeast, and no one dared to underestimate this long-chaotic and economically backward place any longer.
