The city lord sighed.

"Then how do you explain his current actions?"

"Is a proud predator playing with its own food?"

"The previous situation was more in line with the specifications for domesticated food. After things got chaotic, feeding wasn't as convenient, was it?"

If it really is a monster, is it just bored and looking for something to do?

Other city lords also joined the meeting.

If at the beginning everyone was stunned by Skywing A's overwhelming strength and assumed that Skywing A was a monster like the Divine Scion.

During the time that Skywing A was advocating the will to freedom, not only did she not harm those people, but she also gained many followers.

This behavior is completely unlike something a monster would do.

The city lord of number 7 chuckled and said, "If even a monster has this kind of mindset, then we might as well give up and surrender obediently. After all, it won't hurt us."

"On the contrary, in the eyes of those ordinary people, the other party was a very equal leader?"

City Lord No. 9: "We really need to change our mindset."

"If the other party is indeed human, does that mean we can communicate with them?"

The City No. 3 Lord's face was grim. "If we could communicate, would they have infiltrated the building, killed so many of my security guards, and directly taken the Divine Scion?"

City Lord No. 7: "Perhaps this is the arrogance of the strong. Those with power naturally disdain to communicate with ordinary people like us, because they can achieve their goals in their own way. Therefore, communicating with us becomes an unnecessary choice."

City No. 6 suddenly said, "Huh? I've received a communication request from an outsider."

"An outsider? Could it be..." The other city lords were startled, thinking that the monster had contacted City No. 6.

The City No. 6 shook his head. "No, it's not him. It's another group of people. They claim to be from Blue Star and can provide information about the Divine Scion. In exchange, we need to give them some technology."

"Information on the Divine Scion?" City Lord Number One pondered for a moment. "Where are these outsiders now?"

"I've already invited them into City No. 6, and they're currently at the guesthouse."

The City No. 6 certainly wouldn't believe whatever the other party said, so he didn't dare take the other party to the central building, but instead placed him in the guesthouse near the city gate.

"I'll upload the surveillance footage from inside now."

The surveillance footage showed a group of people dressed in unfamiliar clothes, but whose faces were fairly normal and resembled those of humans.

"Judging from this, they don't seem like outsiders at all. Their faces look very similar to those of people from City 2."

"They're all blond and blue-eyed, and their languages are quite similar."

"If I hadn't been unable to find their identities in City 2, I would have thought they came from my City 2," the City Lord of City 2 said jokingly.

But his gaze as he looked at the monitor was cold.

Hopefully, these people who suddenly appeared aren't lying; otherwise, he wouldn't hesitate to take action.

"Look at what they're saying."

The people who came to City No. 6 were, of course, a negotiation team sent by the United States, consisting of seven people in total.

They have two objectives this time: one is to Divine Scion, and the other is to obtain the technology here.

If they can achieve even one of these goals, their trip won't be in vain.

An administrator from City No. 6 walked in from outside.

The United States. negotiating team immediately stood up, and the two sides exchanged superficially friendly greetings, then shook hands and sat down together.

The administrator, seated at the head of the table, asked, "You claim to know what these Divine Scion are?"

The negotiating team nodded. "We not only know what the Divine Scion are, we also know the identity of the one you've been having such a headache with."

Manager: "What do you want?"

"Your technology, protective shields, laser weapons, and so on."

Manager: "Wow, your demands are far too many. If this is all the information you have, it's probably not worth this much."

The negotiating team member chuckled and said, "Information can indeed be worth this much sometimes. Haven't you always wanted to find out what the Divine Scion are?"

The administrator, wearing a headset that relayed the city lord's and others' instructions, said after listening, "The Divine Scion have been dormant; they pose no threat to us."

The implication is that they don't care about the identity of being Divine Scion.

As long as it can continue to produce high-purity energy, that's fine.

Others just want to use it to see if they can develop more functions.

What's giving them the biggest headache right now is Skywing A, who is suspected to be a member of the same Divine Scion lineage.

"They are just sleeping. One day, they will wake up from their slumber, and then, perhaps, it will be the end of the world."

The negotiating team said meaningfully.

His statement stunned the administrator.

This also stunned the other city lords who had been listening to their conversation.

"Yes, these Divine Scion won't remain asleep forever. After that person arrived, didn't that Divine Scion also want to wake up?"

"Waking up will lead to the end of the world? Ha, that's alarmist. Is he exaggerating to scare us into handing over our technology in exchange for intelligence?"

"But we must also be wary."

"Isn't there an example of someone waking up? What if those awakened Divine Scion are just like that monster?"

The city lord watched them argue and carefully considered the negotiating team's words. It seemed that they were separating the Divine Scion and the Skywing A from each other.

They said they were providing two pieces of information, not just one piece of information about the Divine Scion.

If that monster truly is what the Divine Scion look like after awakening, then wouldn't providing just one piece of information be enough?

Why would the other person say that?

Someone who can represent a force in negotiations wouldn't make such a mistake, so at least from the other party's perspective, there's a clear difference between the two.

"Let him ask if that monster is Divine Scion?"

After some deliberation, the negotiation team decided that this basic intelligence needed to be exchanged for a technological advancement.

Finally City No. 6 stepped forward and provided a technology document regarding weapons.

The negotiating team finally gave a definite answer, "Of course not."

Such a definitive answer left the city lords feeling frustrated.

"So that guy really isn't Divine Scion. Then, technological weapons might still be able to harm him. What have we been doing with our fear all this time?"

"Continue to negotiate with them; if necessary, providing some technology is acceptable."

They urgently need to find out information about the Divine Scion and that guy.

Upon receiving the order, the administrator's smile immediately became much more genuine.
