Augustus's projection flickered continuously, and the golden light became disordered.

However, he did not admit it.

"This kind of list has no stamp and no complete access records."

"Lin Feng, it's ridiculous that you're convicting me based on some document of dubious origin."

Lin Feng simply raised his hand and clicked on the task number on the back of the list.

With a flash of light, a string of internal access codes unique to the Second Fleet was displayed.

"Don't rush."

There's something else behind your name.

Augustus remained silent for a moment, then looked at Helian Zheng and put pressure on him.

"Second Special Envoy, this person has openly forged military documents and slandered the legion commander. Will the arbitration tribunal continue to stand by?"

Helian Zheng did not respond immediately.

At this moment, communications between the First Fleet, the Supervisory Council, and the Neutral Supply Department were still in place.

Arrest them on the spot?

The seven arbitration ships probably won't even be able to leave the Starfire Camp.

What's even more troublesome is that Lin Feng's bottom line is unfathomable; heaven knows what other deadly evidence he might have in his bag.

More importantly, no one knows how many records Lin Feng still has.

So Helian Zheng raised his hand and released a soundproof barrier.

"Commander Augustus, there are some situations that need to be verified separately."

A golden projection entered the barrier.

Lin Feng let them put up the soundproof barrier without stopping them.

Yan Zhan whispered to himself.

"They're trying to smooth things over, aren't you going to press your advantage?"

Lin Feng collected the fragment in his palm, his eyes clear: "Now is not the time to kill him. If we push him too far, the Arbitration Court will only fight to the death with the Spark Camp to maintain its authority. So, we should know when to stop."

Yan Zhan was slightly taken aback. After realizing the implications, he nodded in deep agreement, admitting that he had underestimated Lin Feng in seizing the opportunity to "use force and seek wealth".

Inside the soundproof barrier, Helian Zheng and Augustus exchanged rapid words.

Although the content could not be heard, Augustus's projection kept fluctuating, indicating that the talks were not going well.

A few breaths later, the barrier dissipated.

Helian Zheng reopened the document, his voice completely calm.

"Preliminary investigation has confirmed that the Second Fleet did indeed engage in unauthorized modifications to assessment coordinates, disabling of protection protocols, and use of Star Prison prisoners."

"However, the existing evidence is insufficient to prove that Commander Augustus was directly involved."

A chorus of angry curses immediately erupted in the square.

"He just silenced the witness, and you're saying there's insufficient evidence?"

"The people in the control room are all dead. Can dead men give orders on their own?"

"Is this how arbitration tribunals investigate cases?"

"quiet!"

Helian Zheng raised his voice.

"The deputy commander has been executed, and relevant personnel of the Second Fleet will undergo further investigation."

"As for Yan Zhan's shelling of the Second Fleet's base and Lin Feng's killing of an officer across space, these also constitute serious violations."

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhan gripped the hilt of his knife tightly, his murderous aura radiating from him.

Lin Feng calmly stepped forward and stopped Yan Zhan.

"So, in the end, you just want to punish both sides equally?" Lin Feng stared at Helian Zheng.

Helian Zheng gave him a deep look: "The arbitration tribunal will take into account all the causes of the incident."

"How long do you need to consider?"

"The investigation will take time."

"During the investigation, am I required to cooperate with you in sealing off evidence?"

Helian Zheng paused for half a second before giving a standard official response.

"All original documents are kept by the arbitration tribunal and no one may disclose them without authorization; this is the rule."

Lin Feng nodded knowingly.

"Got it, they just want hush money."

Helian Zheng frowned slightly and immediately adopted an official tone: "This is a normal confidentiality procedure to cooperate with the investigation."

"Call me whatever you want."

Lin Feng flicked his wrist, decisively severing the evidence light screen in mid-air.

"If you want me to shut up, then name your price."

The square fell silent again.

Several arbitrators even thought they had misheard.

Augustus said in a deep voice, "Are you trying to blackmail me?"

"The Second Fleet threw us into the Real Star Abyss, where more than a dozen cadets were killed and hundreds were seriously injured."

Lin Feng raised his hand and pointed to the medical area.

"My cultivation time was delayed, and my mental state was severely affected."

The old man with the short sword glanced down at Lin Feng.

At this moment, Lin Feng was full of energy, having just broken through to the Dominator Realm, and had also brought back a whole box of crystal marrow.

He doesn't look like he has suffered any mental damage.

However, he didn't say a word.

Yan Zhan immediately took over the conversation.

"That's right."

"Raymond Lam has been much quieter since he came back; he must have suffered a great shock."

Chu Tiange sat on the edge of the medical pod, remaining silent for a moment.

Then he spoke up.

"I can testify."

Helian Zheng's hands bulged with veins, and he clenched the document in his hand until it was wrinkled.

How much do you want?

Lin Feng took out a list that he had already prepared.

"One hundred Dominator-level star cores."

"Five thousand cubic meters of high-purity liquid essence."

"Thirty tons of Dominator-level forging materials."

"In addition, add three more sets of materials for immortal-grade weapons."

"Wishful thinking!" Augustus's angry shout rang out on the spot.

Lin Feng didn't refute, he just casually snapped his fingers.

The light screen that had just been turned off lit up again.

"Then continue the investigation."

"I also have the mother insect's memories, the control room access chain, and a complete list of corpses recovered by the Second Fleet."

"If we can't reach an agreement today, I'll send this information to all fleet public channels."

Augustus's projection remained fixed in mid-air.

Helian Zheng did not speak.

Everyone understands the stakes involved.

Once the information is fully made public, the arbitral tribunal's records of delaying proceedings and rejecting applications for war relief will also be unearthed.

At that point, the Second Fleet will lose face, and the arbitration tribunal will be brought to the forefront.

After a moment of deathly silence, Helian Zheng's voice was terrifyingly low: "What can you guarantee after receiving the compensation?"

"Related information will not be released to public channels for the time being."

Lin Feng looked directly into Helian Zheng's eyes.


"And if Augustus sends people to kill me again, these things will automatically spread throughout the military."

Augustus gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger.

Are you threatening me?

"no."

Lin Feng pointed to the deadly list with a calm expression.

"I'm informing you."
