Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Based on the last experience, Yanque prepared a moving truck in the incoming truck, which made the cargo transfer work much easier. During the transportation, Zhuang Xuteng, who had stronger reconnaissance and search capabilities, was responsible for looking for the goods belonging to Boss Suo, while Yanque concentrated on dealing with electronic safes, precious metals, jewelry and other easily cashable items. Neither man will forget that cash, whether in euros or platinum coins, will land directly into their team's wallets.

"No. 2, No. 3, the footprint cleaning work has been completed. You can withdraw at any time." Nightingale remotely obtained all relevant monitoring records in the security system, whether they existed locally or remotely, and they were all cleaned up. "Puppies No. 1 and No. 2 are moving towards you, pick up the children, don't forget."

Zhuang Xuteng sent a "received" reply to Nightingale, and then asked Yanque to pretend for the last time. There are still a lot of things left in the vault, mostly paintings, sculptures, etc. These things are also very valuable, but they are not easy to sell, and they have relatively high transportation requirements. If sculptures and paintings are reinforced, those spring ropes, fixing straps and other devices will take up additional space for storing platinum coins and jewelry, which may not be worth the gain.

"There's still a lot of space in the car!" Yanque jumped to Zhuang Xuteng's side and tilted her head to look at him. Even though her face was covered with a mask, Zhuang Xuteng could still see her ogling him and feel her licking her lips.

"Don't do this! We have already taken enough. Cash is what we can use directly. All other things that need to go through channels can only be sold slowly in the next few years. Take more and store the pressure Just big." Zhuang Xuteng saw that Yanque was about to shake his arm and said, "Okay. As soon as Brother Flathead comes over, he will set off immediately without delaying for a second. You should act quickly."

"Yeah!" Yanque jumped and rushed out, bursting with twice the enthusiasm for work.

Accompanied by the sound of clicking, two flat-headed guys came from the direction of the secret passage one after another. Zhuang Xuteng opened the back door of the truck and waited for them to come up. Then he patted the wall of the truck and signaled Yanque to drive.

Two vans left one after another, the one driven by Yanque behind was filled with loot, and the one driven by Nightingale in the front was filled with electronic spying equipment. After they left five blocks, they used programmed control to report a shootout to the PCPD from "a public phone booth five kilometers away" and named the residence of the Blood Bat Gang elder.

Today is different from the past. The PCPD really dares to call the police. Not only does the humiliation of hiding in the police station building and being a coward need to be washed away, but the new mayor's huge allocation to the PCPD also needs to be rewarded with actual actions.

The operation ended successfully and everyone was satisfied. Lucy said that she had not enjoyed such a smooth and reassuring feeling for a long time; Boss Suo smiled and said that he had a bad breath; Ge Gongdao asked Zhuang Xuteng if he could continue to act, because the guys behind him who wanted to owe him a favor had already lined up. .

Regarding the new commission, Nightingale and Yanque expressed that the more the merrier, but Zhuang Xuteng did not want to be involved in new troubles while completing someone's commission, so he tended to take over the tasks of dealing with former gang members.

The four major gangs have been domineering in Peicheng for so long and brought disaster to countless people. Now they want to take advantage of the reshuffle of forces to escape? Even if others are willing, Zhuang Xuteng is definitely not one of them.

In just one week, Zhuang Xuteng took action three more times, and four gang elders ended their criminal lives. One of the operations was carried out during the day, and most of the people were awake, but they were still unable to detect or stop Zhuang Xuteng's infiltration, assassination, and transportation. For a time, all the former gang members were in danger and immediately began to transfer their property outside of Peicheng. Of course, they had to leave as soon as possible. However, if people leave, the money must stay. Many mercenaries saw that these fleeing guys were soft persimmons and would never dare to come back for revenge, so they set their sights on those transport convoys.

The highway in Peicheng was in chaos for several days, and the mercenaries made a lot of money. They all know that they can make money so easily because of the intimidation of Scarecrow Naike, which gives him a high "status in the world." Now it seems that his highest appearance fee in history is completely reasonable, and some people even think that number is a bit low. It is best for Scarecrow Naik not to take action from now on, but to stay alive. This will be more beneficial to other middlemen and mercenaries.

On this day, Lucy called Zhuang Xuteng alone to the office at the music restaurant, then opened the secret negotiation room and took Zhuang Xuteng in. Ever since Zhuang Xuteng punched the door and told her clearly that the office could still be bugged, she had lost interest in continuing to strengthen the office. The foundation of the music restaurant is not good enough. Unless it is demolished and rebuilt, the office will not be safe enough. In contrast, a secret room surrounded by an oil sandwich is a suitable place for secret conversations.

"Get two oxygen tanks and follow me." Lucy said to Zhuang Xuteng: "I have to take care of my image, and I can't walk away with one on my side."

The secret room is indeed completely shielded from prying eyes from the device, but it is originally designed to be a storage point for valuables and an evacuation transit point. As long as the door is closed, it is completely airtight, and there is no fresh air system, so it cannot be left for a long time. Lucy could only carry the oxygen bottle down by hand, and then use the carbon dioxide collection device to extend the use time of the secret room.

"The air is so turbid, my implant has issued a warning." Zhuang Xuteng unscrewed the oxygen bottle, connected the breathing mask, and handed the other mask to Lucy. Lucy opened the carbon dioxide collector and let it work for a while, then fully opened the oxygen bottle to replenish the room.

"The investigation team is keeping a close watch. This is basically the last place where we can safely talk. For a period of time, Meteor had to block more than 100,000 intrusion attempts every day. It had a fever every day and had to stop business and rest." Lucy took the breathing mask. , laughed, and then took off the mask.

Lucy's face was pitted and badly injured, her nose and eyelids were gone, and both eyes had been replaced with implants, with a dark red light shining in the center of the pupils. She looked at Zhuang Xuteng, put on a breathing mask and said, "You are so calm. Why do I feel like you knew I was like this in advance?"

That mask can only deceive the eyes and has no ability to block the Wraith Jelly. Zhuang Xuteng had indeed known for a long time that Lucy's facial damage was serious, but he knew that this was Lucy's private matter, so it would be best if he didn't mention it and just pretend he didn't see it. Now that medical science has advanced, using implants to gain a new face is expensive but not difficult. Lucy didn't do that, she must have her own considerations.

"It's not that I'm calm, but that many of the people I killed are even more..." Zhuang Xuteng couldn't find the right words for a moment, so he changed the subject and asked, "How were you injured?"

"My face was pushed into corrosive chemicals as punishment for giving birth to a child. Fortunately, I hid the child at the time, otherwise it would have been my child who was thrown into the chemical barrel. .”

"So cruel? Who? I will avenge you!"

"I've done it myself, thank you for caring so much."

"Now that you have taken revenge, why don't you go and tidy up your face?" Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and explained: "Aside from health and beauty considerations, whether you wear a mask or appear directly with this face, it is too recognizable. It’s too high and not suitable for hiding one’s identity at critical moments.”

"Oh, I have a few face skins that can be installed at any time. I asked someone to make them. The thing is like jelly. Just slap it on my face and it will change my appearance. I can keep my current appearance even better. Conveniently replaces jelly faces.”

"Is there such a technology?"

"Yes, it's an old craft that existed long before the appearance of implant masks. Some pretenders even take the initiative to peel off facial skin and most of the cartilage in order to use the jelly face." Lucy waved her hand. , said: "A woman, no matter how generous she is, doesn't like to have her face talked about all the time. Naike, I asked you to come because of other things."

"Are you ready for me to stop?"

Lucy smiled and nodded, and said: "You are so smart. I guess you were thinking about various possibilities when I called you here, right? I don't need to beat around the bush for smart people. You did a good job in those jobs, gang remnants The elements were killed well, but the scene was really miserable. Peicheng finally calmed down, and the scene of dead people in a house was too exciting and a bit out of place. The mayor contacted me and put some pressure on me."

"Brewer Pace?" Zhuang Xuteng blinked and asked, "What does he want to do? Protect the remaining gang members?"

"We have invested a lot in him, including helping him ascend to the position of mayor. He also wants to be re-elected and stabilize the situation. He has always been in contact with the Intermediary Association, and he also helped the company's investigation team during their stay in Peicheng. Don't be busy." Lucy said: "Tell me something about you: he hopes you can sell him a favor, and the promise will be rewarded."

"It's best to make it clear what kind of hindsight is going to be." Zhuang Xuteng scratched his face, adjusted his breathing mask, and said, "My favor is guaranteed by Brother Dao, so I guess I took on four tasks quickly. Who can vouch for it on the mayor’s side? Sister Lucy, can you vouch for it?”

Lucy shook her head and said, "He wants to interview you."

"Since you can't vouch for it, it's not a commissioned task, so I don't need to interview him." Zhuang Xuteng has always adhered to the principle of mercenary action. In this regard, he and Ge Gongdao can be said to be exactly the same. "Sister Lucy, I won't make it difficult for you. Just reply and say that I won't do that kind of case for him again. I won't hide it from you. I originally planned to do these few things and that's enough. I never Not a murderer."

"He said he is willing to help you reach an understanding with Dingxin Magic. At least you can meet safely and sit down to talk about this matter."

"Haha, it's a joke. When did he have so much energy?" Zhuang Xuteng figured it out in the blink of an eye: "It should be that Dingxin Mochuang wanted to do something. He knew it and wanted to show off, so he took care of it. Right? If Dingxin Demon Chuang takes this opportunity to kill me, does he still have the ability to stop it?"

"I think so too. But besides this opportunity, do you have any better choices?" Lucy said: "You are eager to complete tasks and win favors, essentially because you are worried that Dingxin Magic will treat you To be honest, your survival to this day is completely beyond my expectations. I don’t know what will happen next, and I don’t know how to deal with it.”

Indeed, Lucy has been in the industry for so many years. Whether it is her own personal experience or what she heard from others, everything points to one conclusion: those who mess with the company will definitely be dealt with by the company.

There are many solutions, and "harmless" is the common denominator of all methods. All those who have been "harmless" have either become dead, or have been hit to the point where it is impossible to return to the level of ordinary people. Zhuang Xuteng is indeed the first person who has been active and active for such a long time.

Thanks to the fact that the previous battles were handled very cleanly, leaving no evidence that could directly establish contact with Zhuang Xuteng; thanks to the fact that the Lich Master has always been very restrained in using necromancy in the Shadow Realm. The company has no experience in this area, and it is really unexpected that Zhuang Xuteng can Cross the combat power gap, and even exceed it by a lot. If the company has conclusive evidence, then they will not resort to group operations, but directly mobilize war-level forces to deal with Zhuang Xuteng, even if they destroy several cities.

"Naike, we are weak and we will definitely suffer losses when dealing with the company. Even if we suffer less losses, it is already a gain." Lucy said: "Whether you plan to continue to work as a mercenary in the future or gradually retire, you will have no impact on the company." As far as I'm concerned, your leverage remains unchanged, and future negotiations will not be better than they are now."

"You think I should go see him?"

"First of all, don't believe what he says. The people from Dingxin Magic will definitely make things difficult for you and will definitely set up an ambush, so this meeting will be very dangerous." Lucy said bluntly: "Be prepared for battle, let the two sisters To assist you, you must at least be able to meet the people from Dingxin Demonic Creation who are here to negotiate. If you feel that the situation is not right and exceeds the level of embarrassment or testing, then run away and never come back."

"This is to prepare me for a showdown with Dingxin Magic! I still want to delay it for a while..."

Lucy waved her hand and said: "It's a good thing that you have gained fame and favors this week; there will definitely be mercenaries and middlemen who are jealous, and those who are not very good in character and level will want to deal with you, as if If they pull you down, they will become more powerful. Those people are not good at getting things done, but they are excellent at finding troubles. Their best method is to brag about you and say that you are better than the entire Dingxin Magic. You are called the number one killer in Peicheng."

Zhuang Xuteng snorted and said: "I also thought about this possibility. As soon as I heard something similar on the road, I knew what they wanted to do. Brother Dao also told me that he was looking for the source to see who was doing this. Not long-sighted.”

"Even if you find them, what are you going to do? Kill them all? The garbage will always come out again. You have to think about how to solve the problem from the root." Lucy advised: "Go and see Brewer. Pace, choose a place where it's easy to retreat. You're smart and know what to do."

Zhuang Xuteng was silent for a while, smiled and nodded. Lucy never mentioned what kind of support and help she would provide from beginning to end, and Zhuang Xuteng pretended not to notice this.
