Chapter 226 Black Material

Amber's question made the senior captives speechless.

Because Amber did not say anything wrong. If any of them really came to this asteroid belt with the intention of negotiation.

The two sides would not fight, the situation would not have evolved to this point, and they would not be "taken advantage" by Atlas who had already ambushed them.

So when Amber finished speaking, the confinement room fell into silence.

Although a reckless man like Antonio was still a little unwilling, he still had to save face.

So it was not easy to say anything at this moment.

But Amber did not intend to let these captives go easily, and sarcastic words sounded again in this confinement room.

"What? You became dumb because of my question? Weren't you all quite talkative before I came?"

Amber's eyes swept over them one by one.

The pressure of the psychic he released now had completely suppressed these captives.

In this situation, no one was willing to look up and look at each other.

After a long time, Amber finally withdrew her psychic pressure, and the captives felt the pressure suddenly reduced, and many of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But no matter what, after this round of intimidation, they all became obedient.

"Very good, it seems that we can talk about business now."

Amber smiled and glanced at Ryan Timler who was sitting on the chair.

"I heard that someone just asked to negotiate with me. Is it you? This gentleman who claims to be the head of the Timler family."

Ryan Timler's expression did not change much after hearing Amber's words.

He raised his hand to adjust his collar and the family emblem on his chest.

In his gestures, the calm and elegant temperament of the nobles of the Star Dragon Empire seemed to return to him.

Although in Amber's view, this so-called "aristocratic temperament" is purely a matter of taste.

"You only have these two clothes on you. How long do you plan to adjust them?"

For those who are not on good terms with her or even want to do something bad to her, Amber has never given them face.

Isabel and the Roma Marines in the room began to struggle to hold back their laughter.

"Hmph, you vulgar fellow. It turns out that only someone like you would make such a cheap sneak attack on the battlefield."

Ryan Timler was not affected by Amber's words and still maintained his so-called demeanor and aristocratic temperament.

He looked at Amber with an arrogant look, cleared his throat and continued:

"We did lose this battle. Since you did not kill me but brought me to this ship, I will regard it as you have accepted my surrender.

According to the description of the chapter on battles and prisoners in the twelfth amendment to the "Basic Law of the Star Dragon Empire Nobility", now I and other members of the family fleet have become your prisoners, that is, the "collateral" of the Timler family's ransom.

According to the requirements of the Basic Law, you must ensure our safety, provide food and accommodation conditions that meet humanitarian standards for grassroots soldiers, and provide food and accommodation that meet their positions and identities for officers and above."

Ryan Timler raised his proud head and spoke clearly and thought clearly about the relevant content of the Basic Law.

Ron Schneider, the commander of the Timler family fleet, and Paul and other captives from the Timler family, did not have any abnormal expressions on their faces.

It was as if their head of the family was narrating something that was normal.

The people from Mary Bay Industries and Yaoguang Defense had already opened their mouths unconsciously at Ryan Timler's ups and downs.

As federal people, they didn't really know much about the Star Dragon Empire.

Not to mention the twists and turns of the rules between the imperial nobles.

Antonio and the fleet's deputy commander Raven looked at each other, and both saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

On the other side, Amber, leaning against the bulkhead, still kept that harmless smile and looked at Ryan Timler.

It was like looking at a clown.

Soon, Ryan Timler finished his speech.

He let out a long breath, then picked up the cup attached to the table and drank some drinking water to moisten his dry throat.

In his opinion, after the prerequisites were stated, the next step was to negotiate with the other party on the issue of paying the ransom.

"Are you done?"

"Yes, next we can talk about ransom"

Ryan Timler was interrupted rudely by Amber before he finished speaking.

"Am I a noble of the Star Dragon Empire?"

"No, I don't think so."

"That's it~" Amber spread her hands and continued:

"I'm not a noble, what's the point of you nagging about the noble basic law? You so-called nobles are really going backwards, each of you is extremely pedantic."

Amber's words directly put Ryan Timler on the spot, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"But you don't have to be nervous, we Atlas is a serious company, we don't like to engage in such fighting and killing, and we won't abuse prisoners."

Hearing this, Antonio, who was sitting on the other side, immediately showed a look of contempt.

You are a serious company? Don't like fighting and killing?

While the hot-tempered fleet commander was complaining in his mind, Ryan Timler's voice continued to sound.

"So what do you want to do?"

"It's very simple.

First, transfer Timler Mining Company to me, and the transfer fee is 1 Imperial Gold Dragon, which is convenient for both of us to keep accounts.

Second, compensate our company for the economic losses in this battle, and the compensation amount is 80 million and 1 Imperial Gold Dragon.

Third, hand over all the ships and equipment that survived the battle to our company as material compensation.

After completing the above three points, I will immediately send people to send all the captives of the Timler family back to your family's fiefdom safely."

As soon as Amber finished her request, not only the people of the Timler family were stunned.

The captives of Mary Bay Industries and Yaoguang Defense were also stunned.

They had seen lions opening their mouths, but this was the first time they saw such a big mouth.

Even Isabel was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she immediately began to struggle whether to remind Amber to pay attention to the art of negotiation.

The first to react was the young man named Paul.

After hearing what Amber said, his face turned red with anger.

"This is impossible! You despicable guy, don't think our family is easy to bully!"

"Shut up!"

Before Amber opened her mouth, Ryan Timler scolded her first:

"Now is not the time for you to speak."

The imperial noble stared at Amber, but he still controlled the expression on his face and hid his anger.

"Sir, it seems that you have no sincerity to negotiate."

"I have made it so clear, is it not sincere enough?"

"But are the conditions you mentioned a bit too much?!"

Ryan Timler unconsciously raised his voice.

Let's not talk about the first and third points mentioned by Amber for now, just talk about the second point of 80 million imperial gold dragons compensation.

This is exactly the amount of available funds in the account of the Timler family after removing those liquid funds.

If the other party just mentioned it casually, then Ryan Timler might just feel angry.

But if the other party was not just saying it casually, but was really stuck on this amount.

The imperial noble did not dare to think about it any further.

"Too much bullying? If we were not prepared, I might be the one standing here and saying "too much bullying".

As I said just now, I will let you go immediately if you complete these three points.

If you can't complete it, you will all stay here and mine until you die."

There was no room for compromise in Amber's tone.

His words also made Ryan Timler's face completely cold.

"Sir, I still hope you can make your request carefully. The anger of an imperial noble may not be something you can bear."

"Threaten me?"

The "business smile" on Amber's face disappeared.

He raised his right hand and gently grasped it. Under the invisible psychic traction, Ryan Timler was directly caught by him, and his neck was just stuck in the tiger's mouth of Amber's right hand.

It was not until then that the captives in the room suddenly realized that the mysterious man in front of them was still a dangerous psychic.

Amber grabbed Ryan Timler's neck and pulled him close, and at the same time put her head close to his ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Ryan Timler, the third-generation head of the Timler family, the baron.

Your wife gave birth to two sons for you. The eldest son died young, and the second son has good qualifications as a family heir.

It's a pity that you found out that he is the illegitimate child of your wife and a secret lover.

And this secret lover is an imperial earl that you can't fight against."

Amber's whisper made Ryan Timler's eyes widen, but the former hadn't finished speaking.

"Fortunately, you also have an illegitimate child, the young and impulsive Mr. Paul over there~

In the eyes of outsiders, he is the orphan of a loyal and deceased subordinate of yours.

But in fact, Paul is the product of your affair with the wife of your subordinate.

Recently, you are considering how to get rid of your wife and that bastard, and then find a way to make Mr. Paul your legal heir"

"Enough. Please don't say any more"

Ryan Timler's tone no longer has the arrogance and dissatisfaction just now, only begging.

He didn't know how Amber knew these things, and this "devil" seemed to be following him and witnessing all this.

If Amber had already realized the mind-reading ability of a high-level psychic at this time, he would definitely cry out for injustice.

He is not a "devil", all these black materials come from the secret archives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Star Dragon Empire.

Since the last time Lilith's clone, LLS943823, packaged and transmitted all the data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Empire.

In Atlas' database, there is a collection of files called "Noble Black Material".

Before today's battle, Amber had already found the relevant black materials of the Timler family in this collection.

You can say that you don't know until you see it, and you will be shocked when you see it.

For a small family whose ancestors are only viscounts, the black materials inside are much more outrageous than the plots of those TV dramas.

"So, may I ask this Baron, have you thought it through?"

When Amber's voice sounded again in his ears, Ryan Timler couldn't help but shudder.

He had lost the courage to look Amber in the eye, and nodded with his head down.

"Very good. We can be said to have known each other for a long time. Let me give you a piece of advice. Your own illegitimate son is not an easy person to deal with. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter any problems in the future, I am willing to help you."

Amber patted Ryan Timler on the shoulder and added the last sentence.

"Of course, it's paid help~"

Amber pushed the already wilted baron back to his chair, and then looked at the people from Mary Bay and Yaoguang Defense who had been "eating melons and watching the show" on the other side.

"This Lord Baron Timler from the Empire has agreed to my conditions, so it's your turn next~"
