Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 900 - 899: Maniacal Laughter

So when Jiang Cheng was preparing to leave, the expressions of the people of Sek Planet who came to see him off seemed almost as if they were mourning him, leaving Jiang Cheng feeling both amused and helpless.

Especially the girl who brought him fruit that day; she clung to his hand and wouldn't let go, tears streaming uncontrollably from her eyes.

This little girl was an orphan, also taught by Jiang Cheng. That day, when those Long Warriors killed her parents and were about to hang her, Jiang Cheng appeared, holding her in his arms, shielding her from witnessing how he dealt with those beasts.

The Sek Planet Shi families were determined to eliminate Jiang Cheng, the alien blocking their sadistic pleasures. They spared no effort, deploying substantial forces, which Jiang Cheng obliterated effortlessly.

Thus, they planned to play deceit in front of this extraterrestrial.

But to Jiang Cheng, a powerful native from the Hua family area, the supposed deception by Hanke Planet Shi families meant nothing, yet he decided to attend the summit, as he had his own calculations.

Stepping into the designated meeting place by Sek Planet Shi families, Jiang Cheng briefly surveyed the surroundings, which made him uncomfortable.

The air retained a sharp smell, indicating a recent fire had burned violently. The surfaces of the town's buildings bore marks of bullet holes and bombardment damage everywhere. The bloodstains on the ground, even after "4-1-7" cleanup, were still faintly visible. Nearby, trash emitted a nauseating smell; Jiang Cheng deduced it was definitely the smell from corpses.

Before his arrival, this place had surely been a hellish area.

Jiang Cheng remained fearless, having been to far worse environments; yet, this place made him feel disgusted.

The Shi families had not arrived yet; only one claiming to be Adjutant received him. Jiang Cheng disliked this crafty-looking fellow but didn't display his feelings outwardly.

The Adjutant spoke fluent universal language, briefly introducing the participants of this meeting, expressing an urgent desire for Jiang Cheng to sign a peace treaty, hinting at his superiors' confidence in the negotiation.

However, as he spoke, his words were evasive, and he avoided Jiang Cheng's gaze, clearly showing this man was untrustworthy.

In truth, the Adjutant was indeed taken aback, failing to believe this alien before him, similar in stature, was the adversary his superiors and allies strived to overcome. This person showed not even a hint of the emotion seen on his superiors' faces, yet his superiors were troubled handling this alien.

Thinking of the terrifying methods of this alien, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Consider how many Long Warriors had perished at his hands, this alien never left survivors, and as for those combat bases, after securing necessary materials for the Sek Planet people, Jiang Cheng surprisingly destroyed the entire base, being harsher than his superiors.

But from today onwards, he needn't fear this alien before him anymore.

The Adjutant secretly smirked to himself.

Shortly, all the Shi families attending the meeting arrived. They too were shocked that the alien before them was the very adversary they were desperate to eliminate. Without much chit-chat, they commenced the meeting.

These individuals displayed some gentlemanly conduct, as the meeting began, they straightforwardly demanded Jiang Cheng stop assisting those they deemed lowly! They offered him greater benefits should he join them.

Jiang Cheng didn't respond, merely shaking his head coldly.

The Shi families shouted in a language he couldn't understand, but he perceived their furious expressions.

Jiang Cheng remained indifferent.

Once their emotions settled, Jiang Cheng articulated his demands in universal language:

Absolutely no further intrusion on civilians.

Ensure the civilians' safety, allowing them to live peacefully.

A third party must oversee their actions.

Jiang Cheng initially didn't have high hopes for this meeting, so as he stated his first demand, those Shi families glared at him with hatred.

No further words were necessary; Jiang Cheng knew, supposedly, the peace talks were nonexistent; he merely came to play along. Now it was time to see what tricks they would pull.

The meeting's Adjutant signaled for a short break, suggesting refreshments and light conversation.

Everyone agreed, seated in the meeting room.

The Sek Planet Shi families were buying time, waiting for their arrangements to be completed.

Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng wanted to see what tricks they had or whether they could present any new surprises?

Truth be told, Jiang Cheng wasn't very keen on the idea.

After everyone rested briefly, the Adjutant stood up, declared the meeting's resumption, saying he'd fetch the documents needed for the second half from the neighboring room.

Then, he stood and left.

Jiang Cheng listened as his footsteps entered the adjacent room and then quickly exited, speeding up until he broke into a run.

Jiang Cheng smirked coldly; the Adjutant had fled.

The unaware Shi families began to grow anxious; retrieving documents shouldn't take so long—they became evidently impatient.

Jiang Cheng informed them that the Adjutant had already left.

They were taken aback!

They began shouting again in a language he didn't understand, desperate to leave.

As if in response, a tremendous explosion rocked beneath them.

Seeing this chaos, several standing afar, including the Adjutant, burst into maniacal laughter.

Turns out, they had orchestrated all this.

The Shi families involved in the talks were mere expendables, impersonating their superiors to negotiate with Jiang Cheng. Beneath the meeting site, they had long planted a massive amount of explosives. Being familiar with combat materials, the Shi families knew firmly that amidst such a powerful explosion, survival for Jiang Cheng was impossible!

As for those expendables, with the alien dying alongside them, they wouldn't be too disadvantaged.

As the explosion's smoke cleared, they began descending from a distant hill but remained cautious, dispatching a team of Long Warriors to enter the blast site first.

The schemer was indeed the Adjutant, possessing a mind full of devious ideas. Planning this conspiracy, he considered everything thoroughly. Besides arranging expendables to negotiate with this alien, and planting ample explosives beneath their feet, he had deployed numerous Long Warriors and heavy weaponry.
