Su Huan smiled faintly, "Isn’t it just a matter of value? You Black Kite certainly wouldn’t want to let go of a living Tier Two Evolver, but now that they’re dead, it’s no longer an issue, right?"

There was no way to detain a Tier Two Evolver in the car, killing them was just as well.

After all, Yu Jing doesn’t need them alive.

Mr. Shu sighed and said sincerely, "If we keep killing, there will be no room for negotiation."

"It’s fine, this is enough, and as for the rest, they can use evolution resources as ransom. I believe you’ll give me a satisfactory price."

Su Huan said indifferently.

He couldn’t possibly kill her whole family in front of Shu Wei, and after just finishing a fight, the train also required a large amount of war reparations to recover.

Speaking of business, Mr. Shu still wanted to make an effort, "But the numbers you just quoted are too outrageous."

"Outrageous?"

Su Huan turned his head to look at Shu Wei.

The latter calmly analyzed, "The laboratory is the core department of Black Kite, the entire force is built around the laboratory. Other resources might be scarce for Black Kite, but evolution resources are definitely the most abundant."

"Moreover, Black Kite is very good at potion making, in this aspect, it could be increased by thirty percent, while reducing regular supplies by twenty percent..."

"Military weapons and ammunition..."

"The factory director always says they’re short on equipment, especially large equipment, but since we’re quite far from headquarters, they can scour for some in the nearby abandoned cities for us to inspect..."

"Another important thing is information, Black Kite’s database is very rich..."

"This should manage it, but considering the train’s carrying capacity, some of these resources should be exchanged for high-value items, like Tier Two and above Pan-energy Crystals."

Su Huan clicked his tongue, throwing the difficult decision back to Old Shu.

Looking at his daughter who had spilled all their secrets, Mr. Shu’s face turned dark and could almost wring water from it as he listened.

"Even if I give you these resources now, you still won’t get out. Once No. 1 is out, you’ll be facing the relentless massacre of a war machine."

Shu Wei stared calmly into Mr. Shu’s gloomy eyes, then resolutely said, "No. 1 is in the experiment, his authority has been upgraded, add thirty percent to all resources!"

Mr. Shu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

The number was terrifying enough on its own, and adding thirty percent more was like emptying Black Kite entirely!

"I calculated based on his No. 3 status, but No. 2 director just showed up too, proving he’s currently in charge of No. 1’s permissions, absolutely able to take it out!"

Shu Wei’s exquisite lips fired words like a machine gun, each one dealing massive damage to Mr. Shu.

Su Huan’s amused gaze from the side made him want to hit someone.

This felt like watching his all-round genius daughter bring home a long-haired delinquent, demanding to give up the house and pack up for eviction.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! This number might as well kill me!"

...

"That’s all there is, squeezing me any further won’t work, only No. 1 has the authority to move those key resources. I still need some resources to settle Black Kite internally."

After saying this, Mr. Shu seemed deflated.

Su Huan patted the other person’s shoulder with satisfaction, "I’ll knock off ten percent from the total I mentioned earlier, consider it your pension."

"Tomorrow morning, I’ll give you a list of materials that must be prepared by the night after."

Mr. Shu opened his mouth but remained silent.

After this battle, the most valuable thing left on the old man was the iris chest pin on his chest.

The negotiation wasn’t slow, both Su Huan and Mr. Shu combined spoke less than Shu Wei alone, and Yu Yue had muted the key voices, leaving the surrounding people to hear only fragmented words.

However, the atmosphere visibly relaxed.

Bao Qingqing also felt more at ease.

"Oh, by the way, these people need separate calculations, for those with heavier influence, the ransom must also be higher."

Su Huan pointed at Bao Qingqing and the others.

Bao Qingqing’s face turned white, feeling the angry stares surrounding her, the previously closely gathered crowd discreetly moved away from her side.

The woman harbored resentment in her heart, these ungrateful wolves, wasn’t she speaking for everyone? What’s wrong with that?

Blaming her instead of the train leader! Simply unforgivable!

Mr. Shu glanced at the young people, showing no guilt in his eyes.

When everyone loses, his losses are less pronounced, just consider it tuition for their children.

Su Huan squatted down to ensure his line of sight was level with Mr. Shu, "Alright, I have one last question."

Mr. Shu knew the core of the gamble had arrived, wasting no time.

"Ask away."

"Who is Yang Cunyi?"

Noticing Mr. Shu’s eyes twitch slightly, Su Huan knew he had asked the right person.

Every cell in his body became excited, like a groom about to lift the veil.

"A military major general, he was the one who invited me to the meeting. At that time, many others were also there, each with a very high level akin to his."

Mr. Shu quickly regained composure, answering without hesitation.

He sensed that Su Huan placed great importance on this question.

The train leader paused, "Bring Lin Xi over."

Soon, the dilapidated theater brightened up with the girl’s presence.

Various scattered lights reflected on the girl’s silver hair, emitting a faint glow, accentuating her graceful figure.

All eyes focused on the girl, especially the Evolvers.

They could better sense Lin Xi’s difference.

It was something akin to Su Huan, like a beautiful jade, just standing there, anyone with eyes could feel her "beauty."

This was the throbbing of genes, detectable even to the blind.

Lin Xi looked at the water pooling on the ground, wrinkled her pretty nose, and paused, staring straight at Su Huan.

Su Huan squatted over the body, giving her a blank glance.

"Keep talking, you listen."

Lin Xi’s gaze turned resentful.

Mr. Shu naturally knew Lin Xi, his initial amazement turned into caution.

"Once there, the meeting began immediately, leaving no room for us to speak, but I glanced around and saw many business elites. Until the meeting ended and I was sent back, I hadn’t spoken a word to anyone else."

"How many people, who all were there, how many times did it happen, specifically what was done, do I need to ask you one by one?"

Su Huan stated calmly.

Feeling Su Huan’s murderous intent, Mr. Shu’s scalp tightened, "The first meeting was brief, primarily inquired about our company’s situation, then ended abruptly. The actual doomsday details came three months later..."

Su Huan’s eyes glimmered, the military or organization knew much earlier!

And the first meeting seemed to have selected candidates based on certain criteria.

"I sort of know what you want to ask, but the details are many, and the timeline varies, let me organize my thoughts."

Mr. Shu cleared his throat and continued.

"Right from the start, I felt something was about to happen, then contacted some friends, discovering many industries being called over in the country, all were transported by military vehicles. We are notable figures in society, only the military could discreetly take people away without causing any disturbances."

"Given the early warning, we already suspected something, but in the end, very few actually heard about doomsday. Counting Black Kite, there were barely a dozen domestically, and now perhaps even less..."

"Only the news?"

Su Huan asked.

"Also, Pan-energy Crystals, and some very basic things. The genetic potions, Pan-energy weapons, and evolution professions you see today were slowly researched by us over these years."

Su Huan’s eyes showed realization, no wonder in the previous life each force’s development focus and professional systems were completely different, the root was here!

"We long believed in the doomsday news, but to add credibility, the military presented even more crucial items."

Speaking of this, Mr. Shu’s back straightened, eyes slightly opened, carrying a saint-like fervor.

"——True Evolvers."
