Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 239 Bai Jingyu, you are nothing but a cowardly rat!

To be honest, if he wasn't worried about problems with ASH after Bai Jingyu's death, he even considered killing Bai Jingyu on the spot.

As one of Hela's four pillars, he underwent extensive physical modifications. Only his brain remained of his own flesh and blood, while the rest of his body was replaced with the cutting-edge technology of the Hela Empire.

Bai Jingyu was no match for him.

With just a glare, he could unleash a high-energy laser, hotter than magma, that could instantly incinerate Bai Jingyu.

Not even a slag left!
Jag pursed his lips, his face full of impatience.

He wouldn't have participated in these negotiations at all if it weren't for dealing with international public opinion.

Despite the impending doom, the world order has not completely collapsed, and Hela still needs to maintain her dignity in the public eye.

"Jiukawa was the first to face attacks from the vines and the Devouring Beasts, but neither of them had much of an impact on Jiuchuan. Under the monitoring and control of the ASH Internet of Everything, the earth vines were dealt with as soon as they broke through the soil, and the infected people were properly treated. The whole city was in good order. Compared to Jiuchuan, I think there are many other places in the world that need the help of the Hela Empire more."

Bai Jingyu said calmly.

Jag took a deep breath and clapped his hands sharply.

Bang! ! !
A thunderclap seemed to explode in the conference room as the expensive long table, made of natural stone, began to crack like a spiderweb under Jaeger's hand.

In an instant, the entire conference room fell silent.

Jag slowly raised his hand.

He gently rubbed his hands together, shaking off the stone chips that were stuck to his palms.

From beginning to end, he stared at Bai Jingyu's face. However, Bai Jingyu's face showed no emotion, as if he had been mentally prepared for his action of slamming the table.

Jag couldn't help but frown.

“Mayor Bai, you should thank ASH.”

"Without ASH, there would be no Jiuchuan today, and you would not be qualified to sit at the same table as me."

"This meeting has wasted too much time; let's be frank and speak openly."

There was silence in the conference room.

Everyone shut their mouths and their eyes were fixed on Jag's face.

They understood that the meeting was over and they had no further opportunity to speak.

"Your theory that allows humanity to slowly accumulate knowledge through carbon-based immortality to combat higher dimensions is simply not feasible."

"I don't have that much time for you, understand?"

Jag's expression was cold. He said, word by word, "The correct and only solution is to enable humanity to achieve silicon-based immortality through ASH, leave Earth, and plan for the future!"

"By clinging to Ash, you're not saving humanity, you're destroying it!"

"His Majesty Helu has already given you many opportunities."

"Today is the last day."

"If you can repent in time and abandon darkness for light, the empire will still welcome you with open arms, and Hisakawa can continue to exist."

At this point, Jag's expression and tone softened.

He said earnestly, "If you wish, the Empire can also build a separate artificial intelligence research institute just for you. This institute will be on par with the Empire's Royal Academy of Sciences, and you will serve as its director for life."

"The Empire will provide you with all the support you need unconditionally. If you decide to quit one day, you can nominate someone else to be the next director, and that person can also nominate their successor."

Bai Jingyu remained silent.

Inside the meeting room, everyone stared wide-eyed.

Even the people of the Hela Empire did not expect that Jage would offer Bai Jingyu such generous terms!
The Royal Academy of Sciences is the highest scientific research institution in the Hela Empire. The lifelong director of an academy of equal rank holds a position and can mobilize resources comparable to the president of most small and medium-sized countries.

At this moment, Bai Jingyu finally spoke. He said, "Silicon-based immortality will only create a new race wearing human skin. I once said this to Helu, and now I'm repeating it to you."

“Foolish!” Jag sneered.

"Haven't you heard of the Ship of Theseus? A ship that sails for so long that every time it needs repair, some parts are replaced, and eventually the whole ship is brand new. Doesn't that make it the same ship?"

"Don't forget that human cells are constantly being renewed and iterated. Every ten years, even bones are completely renewed."

"Humanity itself is a Ship of Theseus!"

Jag's voice grew louder and louder, each word resounding: "Silicon-based immortality is just replacing this ship with better parts. The ship is still the same ship, and the people are still the same people!"

"Silicon-based immortality simply uses technology to accomplish what was originally a task that could only be done through the human body's metabolism."

"Isn't the history of humankind from primitive society to today simply a long history of creating and updating tools?"

"Your view on silicon-based immortality is a prejudice born of complete ignorance!"

"How could someone like you create ASH?!"

Jag became increasingly angry as he spoke.

The grand blueprint for the well-being of all mankind is just one piece away from being realized, but the one who created this piece is a stubborn bastard.

Jag stared intently at Bai Jingyu's face, his eyes gradually turning red, as if he wanted to devour Bai Jingyu alive on the spot.

However, Bai Jingyu seemed oblivious to his burning gaze.

"I will never hand over ASH to the Hela Empire. If Hru is cornered and tries to take a hard line against Hisakawa, I hope he knows that Hisakawa is ready to beat him with a stick."

"If he's not afraid of having all his teeth knocked out, let him jump over the wall."

Bai Jingyu's tone was flat, but his words were like pouring oil on Jiege's already furious head.

call!
Jag's anger flared up instantly.

Lord humiliate to death!

Jeger didn't care about anything else and raised his hand to Bai Jingyu.

His fingertips underwent a series of complex transformations, followed by a flash of dazzling blue light.

Bai Jingyu's right arm was severed at the root.

This sudden turn of events shocked everyone.

"Jeg!" The representative from the Heluo Kingdom, who was acting as the mediator, couldn't sit still any longer. "How could you attack Mayor Bai? This is a negotiation!"

However, no blood flowed from Bai Jingyu's severed arm.

Instead, it was bursting with electric sparks.

Jag ignored the words of the representative from the Heluo Kingdom.

The relationship has already been ruined, so why bother with mediators?

He stared at the sparks on Bai Jingyu's shoulder for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"robot!"

"No wonder you dared to spout nonsense in front of me and speak disrespectfully to His Majesty Helu. Bai Jingyu, I really thought you were some kind of madman. Turns out you're nothing but a cowardly rat hiding behind a robot!"

Jag laughed so hard he almost fell over.

A few seconds later, he stopped laughing, his face contorted with rage, and said, "You sent a robot to participate in the negotiations, but these congressmen you brought shouldn't be robots, right?"
