379 A Terrifying Amount Of Compensation
After the directors heard what Ordinton had said, they were stunned and in a daze.
It felt like the tax collector had come to reclaim their properties after years of tax evasion. They looked at each other in confusion.
One director, whose eyes were filled with hatred, said, “We definitely won’t pay such an absurd compensation amount. This was all achieved with our own strength. What right do you have to ask us to compensate you?”
The other directors all started chiming in as well.
“I don’t know what metric you are using to judge, nor what laws you are talking about. Heck, I don’t even know what your Tiandu division is! However, according to the laws of our human race, no one can question the directors of the Department of Inspection. We are the law here. You cannot judge us using some arbitrary made-up law of your own. In our territory, our laws reign supreme.”
“You should leave our territory immediately. Either you talk to us on our terms, or not at all. No one will buy your nonsense!”
“Why are we still wasting our breath on them?”
“They’re obviously here to bully us this time. How can we still choose to be weak in such a situation?”
One of the directors stood up, and his hand was filled with the power of his Dao aura.
A saber appeared in his hand.
Holding the saber, he slashed down at the top of Ordinton’s head.
It was obvious that he wanted to behead him. He wanted to prove the strength of the human race by killing him.
This director was very confident in his own strength. He believed he had already achieved Yuchi’s level of strength.
In the end, all Ordinton did was wave his finger slightly.
The saber in the hands of the director was completely shattered, and along with it, the latter’s Dao aura was completely suppressed.
At this moment, all of the directors felt terrifying gazes directed toward them. There were more than 100 of them in total.
These 100 gazes all exuded the majesty of their Dao aura, which far exceeded the weak Dao auras that the directors could muster.
It was only at this moment that the directors suddenly realized that their Dao realm cultivation was like a joke in front of the other party. The difference in strength that they felt was like a vast ocean.
It turned out that the human race was not as powerful as they had imagined. It turned out that they were just a complete joke in front of the true myriad races.
One by one, the directors sat back in their chairs, their eyes full of fear. They were so afraid that they needed their chairs for support.
However, Ordinton remained rather friendly as he said, “I’m sorry to have disturbed you this time. I believe you know what to do next. You only have one year. Within one year, your human race must pay compensation according to the document. Only then can the other races see your sincerity.”
“Of course, if nothing happens within a year, the compensation will be further increased. At the same time, the person in charge of the compensation will no longer be the Department of Inspection, but the Tiandu division and the other myriad races.”
He finished.
Ordinton and the other Tiandu division chiefs nodded at each other. They felt that there was no need to continue staying here. The human race would probably make some kind of response. However, no matter what, it was just as they had said. They only had a year’s time.
The directors had never thought that their strength would be so weak compared to the myriad races. In particular, the strength that Ordinton displayed earlier was at a level where he could turn them into ashes with a flick of his finger.
However, if he was really at such a level, why did he not lead his race to conquer and exterminate the other races?
On the contrary, he became a chief of the Tiandu division, whatever that was.
Why did he have to protect these weak races?
Clearly, the directors would never be able to understand the reasoning behind it.
Geniuses did not only appear among the powerful races, but in every other race as well. In order for the world to develop and become stronger, it was necessary to preserve the number of races in the world to a certain degree, which was why every race had the basic right to live and survive in this world.
Now, things were troublesome.
The directors were already thinking about how they should deal with this matter, especially when they recalled the 18 compensation items in the document that Ordinton had read out.
Each one was more brutal than the last.
They had to pay with the lives of more than 400 million people!
That meant that the directors had to coordinate with the human race and find scapegoats to bear the brunt of the anger of all the other races!
That was 400 million human lives!
What kind of concept was this? Even if the average height of the human race was only one meter, the final length of 400 million human lives connected from head to tail would be 400,000 kilometers.
They did not know how to break this news to the other humans who were gung-ho about the war.
There was also that huge compensation amount of 3.9 trillion yuan!
Furthermore, they could not use their own currency to pay this compensation, but had to use other resources that matched the value of those special crystals!
One terrifying item after another began to appear in the eyes of the directors. When the only power they could rely on became worthless, they suddenly realized how terrifying the situation they were about to face was.
Then, they looked at the Tiandu division chiefs and clan leaders in front of them. They had made a fool of themselves!
At this moment, a person walked in.
Everyone’s eyes were filled with confusion as they looked at this person.
Most people did not know who this person was, but many people did.
It was Yuchi.
