"Open your mouth."
Jiang Jiu obediently opened his mouth.
Black Tower threw the chocolate in.
Is it sweet?
"do not know."
"Then let's just say it's sweet."
Jiang Jiu smiled helplessly.
The black swan stood at the door, watching this scene, and suddenly felt superfluous.
...Maybe I should just go back and stay there?
She quietly took a step back.
"stop."
The Black Tower's voice came neither too loud nor too soft, and the Black Swan was immediately frozen in place, too afraid to move.
"You're already inside, why are you running?"
The black swan turned around stiffly, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "I...I just felt...you two might... need some private space..."
“No need.” Heita popped another chocolate into Jiang Jiu’s mouth. “Come in and sit down.”
The black swan looked at Jiang Jiu with pleading eyes.
Jiang Jiu leaned back on the sofa, his complexion much better. Receiving her gaze, he shrugged: "What are you afraid of? Are you going to eat me?"
Black Swan hesitated for a moment, but still braced herself and walked in, carefully sitting down on the edge of the sofa at the other end.
"Give."
She handed over the completed video.
Jiang Jiu took it, but didn't look at it immediately. Instead, he asked, "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
The black swan paused for a moment.
Looking at Jiang Jiu's complexion, which had improved somewhat but was still not good, she suddenly didn't know what to say.
"No, no..." Her voice was a little tight, "I'm fine, nothing's wrong."
Jiang Jiu nodded, then looked down at the Memory Bubble in his hand.
Heita leaned closer and looked at it with him.
The images of the battle between the gods are very clear.
Immortal ships, enemy vessels filling the sky, hunting arrows, harmonious music, and destructive flames.
One grand scene after another appeared.
Jiang Jiu looked at these scenes, but couldn't feel the slightest emotional fluctuation.
These things felt to him like he was watching images that had nothing to do with him.
After watching it once, he handed the video to Black Tower, then turned to Black Swan: "Thank you, Black Swan, you've been a great help."
"...You're too kind. Your promise is more reliable than any divination," the Black Swan said earnestly.
Jiang Jiu paused for a moment, then smiled.
Black Tower snorted softly from the side, his tone somewhat matter-of-fact: "Of course, my people keep their word."
Black Swan: "..."
She silently looked away.
Here it comes again, here it comes again, here it comes again.
When will this dog food ever end?!
Jiang Jiu didn't pay much attention to anything else.
He packaged a file, along with a backup that Black Tower had recently taken from the small doll, slightly edited it, and sent it directly to Marshal Xianzhou and General Shence of Luofu.
Giving it to the Marshal would be the normal choice, but giving it to Jing Yuan was probably a bit of a personal motive.
"Then... it's up to the Immortal Boat to choose."
I saw the notification that the other party had received the file.
Jiang Jiu sighed.
...I'm begging you, please don't be so foolish as to want to die, okay?
......
Chapter 182 They are always testing each other.
In the laboratory of the Black Tower space station, Jiang Jiu did not stare at his phone waiting for messages.
Instead, he simply packaged a file and sent it to ScrewGumm.
Before long, Jiang Jiu received a communication request from Screw Gumu.
Without saying much, I answered the call directly.
After discovering that Jiang Jiu was at the Black Tower Space Station, Screw Gum paused for a moment, then calmly accepted the situation.
"Jiang Jiu, it's been a long time." Screw Gum said calmly, "Logic, our reunion is a little later than I expected."
Jiang Jiu nodded slightly: "It really has been a long time."
Black Tower glanced at it and said directly, "Stop with the pleasantries, Screw. What's your take on the situation on the Immortal Ship?"
Screw Gumu glanced at Jiang Jiu and spoke calmly.
"With the guarantee of the two of you, Luosixing is willing to do its utmost to help."
A very valuable promise.
Jiang Jiu sincerely said, "Thank you very much, Screw Gum."
Screw Gum nodded slightly, briefly inquired about the situation, and finally replied that he could help anytime if needed.
It has to be said that ScrewGum is a very reliable friend.
After finishing his communication with Screw Gum, Jiang Jiu glanced at the messages on the Immortal Boat.
ten minutes.
twenty minutes.
However, there was no response from the other party.
"Still not back?" Black Tower asked.
“I’ve read it but won’t reply,” Jiang Jiu said nonchalantly. “Marshal Xianzhou’s side shows it’s been received, and Jingyuan’s side also says it’s been received.”
Black Tower raised an eyebrow: "Is this a discussion?"
“Probably…” Jiang Jiu leaned back on the sofa. “After all, it’s a major event that can determine the fate of the Immortal Ship. They’ll probably have a meeting, an argument, and then inexplicably make a decision that doesn’t need any discussion.”
Black Tower scoffed, "You do have patience."
“Impatient,” Jiang Jiu said. “I’m just giving them one last chance.”
Black Tower glanced at him but didn't say anything.
She knew he was telling the truth.
The way Xianzhou behaved across several timelines had almost completely eroded his goodwill towards it.
The only reason I'm still sitting here waiting for a reply is because of that last bit of hope: "Maybe this time will be different."
After an unknown amount of time, the communication terminal finally lit up.
The two messages arrived almost simultaneously.
A message from Marshal Hua of the Immortal Boat, worded in an official yet cautious manner.
"Lord Shi Jin, the Immortal Ship Alliance has received the images and information you provided. This matter is of great importance, involving the Imperial Bow Master and the foundation of the Immortal Ship. It cannot be resolved in a few words. The Immortal Ship is willing to meet with you to discuss countermeasures. You may specify the time and place, and the Immortal Ship will send a representative there."
One from Jingyuan, private, and much shorter.
"Your Excellency, I have seen the footage. This matter... is far beyond my expectations. The Marshal is convening a meeting, but I would like to ask first: Is there any room for discussion?"
Jiang Jiu looked at the two messages and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
room?
He handed the two messages to Black Tower.
Black Tower glanced at it and commented, "The first one is official rhetoric, the second one is a private probe; they mean roughly the same thing—they want to talk."
"Yes, they want to talk... but what do they want to talk about...?"
He took his phone back and started typing.
The reply to Jingyuan was very simple.
"There's room for negotiation? Yes, hand over the remains of the breeding, hand over the Mirror Stream Rakshasa, and the rest is not up for discussion."
The reply to Marshal Hua was slightly more formal, but the meaning was roughly the same.
After sending the message, Jiang Jiu turned off his phone.
Even without looking at the Black Tower, one could guess roughly what was going on.
In a sense, Black Tower admired Jiang Jiu's patience.
If a different Great Ruler were to handle this matter, he would probably find the source and eliminate it without any further discussion.
It's true that the Immortal Ship is one of the top powers.
However, compared to the world, it is indeed insignificant.
Or perhaps, even a star god is not worth mentioning.
Hei Ta couldn't help but look at Jiang Jiu.
