Collapse Iron: As the Balance Envoy, I've joined the chat group

Just then, the company finished its discussion and gave a reply.

After examining the jade carefully, she smiled and said:

"Your Excellency, the company fully agrees to the limitations and requirements you have mentioned in the patent licensing for 'Metadomain' and 'Imaginary Number Collapse Pulse'."

"One week from now, the Diamond Manager will personally travel from Pierpoint to the Cosmic Court to formally sign the contract with you."

"Furthermore, the board also mentioned that they are unsure which factions the Supreme Judge favors regarding the patent licensing issue for the 'imaginary number collapse pulse'?"

"The company can help connect you with them so that you can arrive at the Cosmic Court at the same time to discuss the specifics. You won't have to bother contacting them individually."

The secretary next to him stopped writing and closed her notebook.

Zhong Heng raised the corners of his mouth slightly on the smiling mask at his waist, subtly winked at his secretary, and then quietly copied a copy of her derivative work and posted it in the arbitrators' chat group.

Unaware of anything amiss, Zhong Heng nodded slightly: "Then I won't stand on ceremony. I'll give you a list later, and I'll trouble the Interstellar Peace Company to help contact other forces."

Jade readily agreed, "Of course."

After a pause, Emerald smiled and said, "Now that we've finished discussing work, there's something else I'd like to talk to you about."

"In fact, this matter was requested by one of my colleagues and the Diamond Director of the 'Strategic Investment Department.'"

"They want me to ask you if the length of Oswaldo Schneider's imprisonment could be extended?"

"It won't take long, three to five years should be enough."

"My colleague and the diamond manager said that if Your Excellency the Supreme Judge agrees, they are willing to owe you a favor in their personal capacity."

Zhong Heng raised an eyebrow. He was just wondering why the company sent Jade over without mentioning Oswaldo Schneider at all.

Good heavens, so this is where they were waiting.

Diamond is currently in the process of running for a board seat at Interstellar Peace Corporation.

This year, he and Oswaldo Schneider were nominated.

If Zhong Heng really agrees, by the time he's been imprisoned for a few more years, everything at the company will have been settled. After Oswaldo Schneider is "released," he'll find that his former competitor has become his boss. I wonder what he'll think.

The competition tactics used in the diamond industry are truly unpretentious.

He used a favor to secure his seat on the board of directors.

Once he's in that position, he will indeed have access to more resources and connections, and that favor will certainly become more valuable.

Not to mention the favors from colleagues that Jade mentioned.

Who is it?

That's so hard to guess!

You agree, right, Kakawasha!

Kakawasha's words are understandable, given that it's a personal grudge.

But this guy Diamond, he's using business warfare tactics on himself and the Cosmic Court. What a pipe dream!

Thinking of this, Zhong Heng directly refused: "In principle, what the Cosmic Court does is not imprisonment or punishment."

"Mr. Oswald Schneider is here with us, in fact, contributing to the balance of the universe, not through imprisonment, but through arbitration or testing."

"What he did was simply to collect the imaginary energy that he released during the arbitration, in order to maintain the balance between various aspects of the universe."

"In fact, no matter what aspect he is in, as long as he is strong enough to pass the test, he can be released that same day."

"But it seems that he is not strong enough to pass the test I set for him, so I set a deadline on this basis."

"Now that the deadline has arrived, it is impossible to postpone it without cause for any other reason."

"I hope you, and the Interstellar Peace Corporation behind you, understand this."

To reiterate, even though Oswaldo Schneider didn't actually appear in the game before the time travel, during the game...

Knowing about his deeds merely through some plot texts is enough to make people feel disgusted and repulsed.

But for equilibrium, whether you are good or evil, you are all just weights on both ends of the balance scale of the universe.

There is no denying that what Oswaldo Schneider did was so despicable that it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a complete scoundrel.

However, the development of the universe requires competition, and under pressure, the seeds of resistance will naturally be born.

Although it takes time for seeds to germinate and grow, and sometimes they are even killed in the early stages of germination.

But if all of this is denied, and there is no competition or pressure in the universe, wouldn't it be like a stagnant pool?

Ultimately, if we compare the universe to a fish tank and living beings to small fish, then people like Oswaldo Schneider are like catfish that have been put into the fish tank.

Without the catfish effect, the subsequent chain reaction would be even more harmful to the balance of the universe.

Putting aside other matters, those in the Abundance lineage, whether they are star gods or people on the path of Abundance, are truly "selfless and altruistic," and there is no such thing as an Abundance evil.

Before long, the entire universe will be filled with immortal beings without any side effects.

Just imagine that scene...

Given time, the entire universe's resources will be squandered by the rapidly expanding population.

Correspondingly, hunting will be completely rejected and cease to exist.

The other harms will not be mentioned here.

Waving his hand, Zhong Heng continued, "Let's not bring up the matter of Mr. Oswald Schneider's arbitration postponement again."

"However, as the supreme judge, I must, in principle, be fair and just to all living beings in the world..."

"But in private, as an ordinary person, Zhongheng can offer some help."

Then, Zhong Heng took out a USB flash drive from his pouch and handed it to Fei Cui:

"This contains the content of the trial I designed, 'Mystic Gold,' which Mr. Oswald Schneider conducted with me in the realm of alternate-phase arbitration."

"I think Ms. Emerald, as a company executive, knows better than I how to use this image backup."

"I suppose this backup image should be enough to earn you diamonds and your colleague's favor, right?"

Jade, who had initially felt it was a great pity after being sternly rejected by Zhong Heng, suddenly brightened up upon hearing this.

She quickly stood up, bowed slightly, and took the USB drive from Zhong Heng with both hands, carefully placing it away.

With this backup image, as long as it's taken back and handed over to Diamond, Jade doesn't care how things develop from there.

All she knew was that once the video spread around the world, the board of directors would certainly not consider allowing someone who damaged the company's image to sit on the board.

And once Diamond successfully wins a seat on the board of directors, if she follows Zhong Heng's advice and invests in the nameless passengers of the Starry Sky Train in advance...

If the rewards are indeed as generous as Zhong Heng described, she certainly has a chance to take up Diamond's current position and become the head of the strategic investment department.

Thinking of this, Emerald and Zhongheng exchanged a knowing smile.
