Xu Jingming listened. Punishment? How you punish one of your own is up to you.
“We are willing to pay the price of 100 trillion cosmic dollars for your forgiveness,” Du Lingchen said respectfully.
Xu Jingming’s heart stirred slightly.
100 trillion cosmic dollars? This price was relatively high even for the Black Moon civilization!
!!
Although an undeveloped habitable planet was worth about 100 billion cosmic dollars, the development and construction of an habitable planet also required a huge investment. If the entire planet was installed with a virtual mainframe, the price would be even higher.
Under normal circumstances, a fully constructed habitable planet was worth about 500 billion. Those that were built especially extravagantly didn’t have a ceiling on the price.
100 trillion cosmic dollars was enough to buy 200 fully constructed habitable planets. It could even buy a relatively poor and desolate galactic territory.
A complete galaxy contained countless planets. Even if there were only 30 to 50 fully constructed habitable planets, it was a complete galaxy after all, and its value could reach 100 trillion.
Galaxies like the Milky Way cost even more.
In the universe, planets were easy to buy, but not galaxies! This was because most galaxies… had many civilizations.
“I am cognizant of the Black Moon civilization’s sincerity.” Xu Jingming nodded. “But I don’t think it’s necessary.”
With that said, he got up.
“It’s necessary.” First Elder Du Lingchen immediately got up to stop him. “Our Black Moon civilization is very sincere.”
Merilun also gazed at Xu Jingming. “Lord Wu Ming, feel free to raise your demands.”
Xu Jingming glanced at them.
Earth’s civilization was weak, so he naturally had to seize the opportunity to bite off a piece of meat.
After all, he was also restrained by the Cosmic Human Alliance’s laws, and what he could do to the Black Moon civilization was limited. Exchanging for sufficient benefits might be the best choice for Earth’s civilization. Moreover, it could make the Black Moon civilization feel the pinch.
“Since you’re sincere, you have to show your sincerity.” Xu Jingming extended a finger on his left hand.
First Elder Du Lingchen, Merilun, and the other 11 people stared at Xu Jingming and watched him extend a finger as they pondered over his intentions.
Xu Jingming extended five fingers on his left hand.
Du Lingchen and Merilun looked at each other.
First Elder Du Lingchen immediately said, “Yes, we weren’t sincere enough. We hope to receive Mr. Wu Ming’s forgiveness with 500 trillion cosmic dollars.”
The other elders’ hearts ached. 500 trillion cosmic dollars? This was a huge sum of wealth. It would be difficult for the entire Black Moon civilization to fork out this sum of money in a short period of time. They had to think of a way to raise the money.
However, the 13 Elders still came to a decision—they would pay up!
Giving up 500 trillion was only a sacrifice for a civilization. If they didn’t resolve the conflict, perhaps half of their territory would shrink in 100,000 years.
Xu Jingming looked at the 13 Elders. He wasn’t vile; He extended five fingers because the officials of the Black Moon civilization could squeeze out so much if they tried. If he asked for more, the Black Moon civilization would have to mortgage and sell a large number of assets.
This was also the reason why Elder Du Lingchen and the others decisively agreed to Xu Jingming’s request.
Although Xu Jingming was hostile, he knew that the root cause behind it was Lunardo. The Black Moon civilization had only chosen to stand on Lunardo’s side back then.
“Alright, I see your sincerity.” Xu Jingming got up. “I’ll also keep my promise.”
The 13 Elders of the Black Moon civilization felt relieved when they heard this.
