Chapter 865: God of Destiny
Ten minutes later, in the center of the desert fortress, the Pile Tower.
This tower covers an area of about 5,000 square meters and has a total of seven floors. It is the most solid building in the entire fortress. Its main body and outer walls are all made of metal, and it is the kind of metal that is very high-quality at first glance, which cannot be compared with the broken copper and iron smelted on the outer walls of the fortress.
There is no doubt... this tower is the residence of the ruling class here.
The four people of the Corpse Blade Second Squad have been "escorted" all the way to the front of this tower.
Of course... "escort" is just talk. In fact, they were not subdued. They just took the initiative to "surrender" under the instruction of the reborn king and followed the rabbit guards.
Squeak-hum-
Accompanied by the sound of metal friction, the heavy tower door was pushed open, and the scene inside the tower appeared in front of the four players.
Behind the door, there is a rectangular room with a faint smell of blood. There are obvious bloodstains on the metal walls on both sides.
From the outside, the tower is cylindrical, and its area is much larger than the space in front of us, so there should be other rooms on this floor. However... the person that the Corpse Blade Second Division wants to see is waiting for them in this room.
↑→, that is also a very burly Rabbit Star (King Chuchuqi is also), and his clothing style also adheres to the kind of apocalyptic rock style.
Just look at him... you can feel the difference between him and those Rabbit Star soldiers.
In this world, anyone who has been through a long battle will have some unique temperament.
It may be the lingering blood, or the indifference of looking down on life and death, or the faint hostility... Different personalities and experiences will shape different temperaments. And the Rabbit Star in front of him is obviously the kind of domineering and unconcealed violent type.
"Lord Siming, the person has been brought here." As soon as he entered the tower, the leading Rabbit Star soldier reported to the burly Rabbit Man.
"Okay. You all go out." The sturdy man called "Lord Siming" replied, and waved his hand casually at the soldiers.
"Yes!" Without questioning or hesitation, the soldiers turned around and left after receiving the order, and did not forget to close the door before leaving.
They didn't seem to mind leaving the four earthlings who were completely unrestrained here to be alone with their superiors... This immediately made Reborn as King feel a little strange.
"Listen, earthlings." After a moment, the burly rabbit star spoke, "I am one of the six heavenly officials of the long-haired holy fist... Siming Xingjun Xiximan."
Hearing his self-introduction, many spectators who were watching the game laughed again.
But... the four people of the Corpse Knife Second Division did not laugh.
Even if the drug factor was not mentioned, they could not laugh. Because... it was not just Reborn as King. The other three people in the team also felt to varying degrees that the strength of the NPC in front of them was very strong.
"I'll ask you again seriously..." After introducing himself, Xiximan went straight to the point, "Were you the ones who killed Jiujiuqi?"
The four exchanged glances, and then the captain Sanyu Qiangxi stepped forward and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Yes, we did it."
"Ha! Hahahaha..." Xiximan's face changed immediately and he laughed out loud. "Very good... I've been displeased with that rubbish for a long time."
His response made the Corpse Knife's men feel relieved. It seemed that this big man had a bad relationship with Jiujiuqi and would not seek revenge for the latter.
But... the next second, Xiximan's smile instantly turned into a grim smile. His tone of voice also changed sharply: "But... that rubbish is also the captain of our rangers. Without him and his rangers searching for resources and slaves outside, our fortress suffered a lot of losses..." His eyes were sharp and his tone was cold, "How are you going to be responsible for those losses?"
The Corpse Knife's men have seen many negotiations like this. The questions raised by the other party were not really "problems". There is no need for them to answer seriously.
Therefore, Sanyu Qiangxi's response was: "Why not tell me... What do you want?"
"Hehe..." Xiximan laughed, "It seems that you are smart people." He paused, "Then I will say it directly..." He walked forward a few steps and came in front of the players, looking down at the four people with a condescending look, "I will give you two choices..." As he said, he stretched out a finger, "First, before I find someone (rabbit) to replace Jiujiuqi, you will be responsible for the work of the rangers; if you perform well, then after repaying the losses of this city, I can forgive the past and let you decide whether to stay or leave." Then, he stretched out a second finger, "Second... I will immediately beat you into cripples, and then you will be slaves for life."
Rather than offering choices, it is better to say that this is a simple intimidation...
But these people from the Corpse Knife all looked calm and their expressions did not change much, which made Xiximan a little confused.
"We need to discuss it." Two seconds later, Sanyu Qiangxi replied after a little consideration.
"Okay." Hehe said, "Don't make me wait too long." After that, he turned around, walked a few steps away in a hypocritical manner, and raised his rabbit ears...
"Rebirth, what do you think?" Sanyu Qiangxi first asked the team's think tank.
"Well... the situation here is much more dangerous than I thought..." Reborn as the King, "After entering the city, the guards we saw were stronger than the 'Rangers' in terms of weapons and equipment, discipline, and basic physique; and the 'Long-haired Holy Fist Six Heavenly Officials' in front of us are undoubtedly boss-level characters. If there are five NPCs of the same level as Xiximan in this tower, I'm afraid we won't be able to gain any advantage in terms of force. Even if we can quickly kill Xiximan in front of us, we can't get out of this fortress unscathed afterwards..."
"Yeah... I feel the same way." San Yuqiang Xi nodded and said, "To be honest, after encountering Jiujiuqi, I was a little blindly optimistic. I thought that if we followed the direction he appeared, we might find a stronghold similar to a 'shanzhai'. Then we just need to take down a shanzhai boss who is slightly stronger than Jiujiuqi, and we can take advantage of the situation to occupy the mountain and take advantage of it..." He shook his head, "Now it seems... the 'momentum' in this script is really not so easy to control..."
"Humph... the stronger the 'momentum', the harder it is to control." Zhongshengweiwang snorted at this time and continued, "Captain, I have a plan... I will negotiate with Xiximan later..." (To be continued..)
