Chapter 504 The mission to stab Su Mo in the back? Don’t underestimate the Black King!

The unexpected impact made Zero's brain instantly dull.

It was difficult for her to understand for a moment, or she subconsciously resisted understanding the meaning of Lu Mingze's words.

However, after all, she was not the type to hide her ears and avoid problems, and she quickly sorted out the current situation.

The reason why she stayed with Su Mo all the time was simply because of her mission. Her mission was to protect Su Mo.

Now, since Lu Mingze said that this mission was over, it meant that she no longer needed to protect Su Mo.

It also means - separation.

She stayed with Su Mo for so long that she almost forgot that staying with Su Mo was just a short-term mission that started more than a month ago. Her real position should be in the nanny group.

Therefore, when she heard that the mission was over, she should just follow the orders and return to her previous life, just like every previous mission, and return to a life where she would not be bullied by Xia Mi and Su Mo.

Logically speaking, this is something worth looking forward to.

According to past experience, this is something that does not require any hesitation.

However……

"Why?"

A slightly deep girl's voice suddenly sounded, Ling's petite palms clenched slightly, still looking at the ground with his head lowered, his white teeth biting slight marks on his bright red lips.

It was obvious that she asked this question.

After hearing this, Su Enxi and Jiude Mai looked at each other with expressions of great astonishment.

In their minds, this was the first time in their history that Zero had questioned Lu Mingze's order.

In the past, this would have been almost unimaginable.

Among the trio of wet nurses, Zero has always been the simplest and most violent straight line. She never asks whether the task is reasonable or the meaning of the assigned task. She is just like a robot, even if it looks like she is obviously going to die.

She won't react at all to the task.

In Zero's eyes, enemies or obstacles have no meaning. They can just cut them off or explode them. If she cannot do this and cannot complete the task, it means that she is only at that level and there is no value in continuing to live.

She has always been the type who doesn't even care about her own life, and has no interest in knowing anything about the mission except what is necessary.

But now, not only did she not accept Lu Mingze's order immediately, she actually wanted to ask the reason behind it?

They know that Ling has changed a lot, and they also know that she cares about Su Mo, but for her to change on such a principled matter, and even question her boss, is this a bit too exaggerated?

She and Su Mo have only known each other for more than a month!

Under the surprised gazes of Jiude Mai and Su Enxi, Lu Mingze asked expressionlessly.

"what why?"

"Why end the mission?"

Zero can only describe his problem clearly.

"Isn't Su Mo the core of the plan? If we don't protect him, what will happen to the plan if something happens to him?"

The Sanwu girl raised her head and asked in the same cold tone as before.

From what she meant, it seemed that she raised the question out of public interest and because of Lu Mingze's mission.

It's definitely not out of any personal feelings.

Regarding this question, Lu Mingze asked again.

"Do you think that with your strength, you can really protect Su Mo now?"

"..."

As soon as he said this, Zero fell silent on the spot.

She suddenly understood why Miss Xia Mi had such an aggrieved expression when comparing the Dragon King's strength before.

Some things can only be understood by experiencing them yourself.

Lu Mingze's words were correct. With Su Mo's current strength, even without borrowing a mask, he could confront the Dragon King head-on. His strength was already above that of the Emperor-level hybrid, and he was only half a step away from the Dragon King's realm.

In the past, Zero could also use the gift of blood and the word spirit of Time Zero to assist Su Mo, but after Su Mo's exclusive word spirit awakened to the current level, he no longer needs zero to assist him.

In fact, Zero still became an emperor-level hybrid because of him. Even though he had become an emperor-level hybrid, Zero still couldn't help Su Mo. Su Mo knew everything she knew.

Lu Mingze didn't say that she didn't have the power to protect Su Mo now.

"I can work hard to become stronger!"

After a few seconds of silence, Zero clenched his small fists and spoke firmly.

If it was just due to a lack of strength, then she was willing to make up for it.

"Xia Mi has already laid a good foundation for me in the ancient boxing technique. You can also try to ask Su Mo to teach me the world-destroying word spirit. I am also working hard on his exclusive word spirit... I won't hold you back!"

She didn't think her strength could surpass Su Mo, but as long as she was close, she could still help Su Mo avoid many crises.

If this was the reason why Lu Mingze asked her to end the mission, she could definitely overcome this difficulty!

Faced with the girl's determination, Lu Mingze immediately shook his head.

"Even if you do this, you can only gain the power of the trumpet Su Mo, which is too far behind."

Saying that, without waiting for Zero to refute, he continued to add.

"Moreover, the most important problem is not your strength, but that Su Mo no longer needs protection. His strength has improved a bit too fast..."

Having said this, he showed a somewhat gloomy expression.

"Tsk! It's too strong, it's also a problem!"

"——!"

Hearing this unsettling tone, Zero suddenly showed a look of astonishment.

Su Mo is strong enough to protect himself. Although it is a pity, isn't this a good thing?

As an ally, why would Lu Mingze be troubled by Su Mo's becoming stronger?

She had an ominous premonition in her heart.

As if he noticed her surprise, Lu Mingze showed a joking expression and smiled.

"Why are you so surprised? No way? Do you really think that I really put my hope in Su Mo, so I wholeheartedly want to make him stronger?"

"..."

Zero opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Mingze, not seeing any flaws in his expression.

If it were Jiude Mai or Su Enxi, they probably wouldn't believe Lu Mingze's words at all, because the resources of the nanny group have been deeply bound to Su Mo's side, and betrayal is not something that can only be done by betrayal.

But Ling was different. As the person who knew Lu Mingze best among the nannies, she understood that Lu Mingze could indeed do this.

For his purpose, as long as the price is right, Lu Mingze can give up anyone, including the nanny group, and even himself.

If Lu Mingze was not in a desperate situation, he would definitely not place all his hopes on others.

After realizing this possibility, Zero felt a panic in his heart that he could not understand.

At this time, Lu Mingze continued to speak.

"Su Mo does have a special place, and this is what I want to take advantage of. Have you ever heard of being a pioneer for the king? I just need him as a tool to help me solve the two problems of Odin and the Black King, so he

It can’t be too weak, but it can’t be too strong either.”

"If he is too weak, it will not be enough to solve my problem. If he is too strong, wouldn't it be possible for him to backfire on me? Do you think I am someone who will bring hidden dangers to myself?"

Speaking of this, Lu Mingze showed a cruel smile on his face.

"So, it's best for Su Mo to defeat the Black King. Then I can step on their corpses and ascend to the final throne."

Hearing this, Zero seemed to have gone back in time and saw the fire when Black Swan Port was burning. At that time, Lu Mingze also left with corpses on the ground.

With Lu Mingze's character, he is really not joking, he can really do such a thing!

I'm afraid he had this plan in mind from the very beginning!

Thinking that Su Mo still knew nothing and had no idea that Lu Mingze was hiding in the shadows and might stab him in the heart at any time, Ling felt a pain in his chest and his breathing was completely messed up.

At this moment, Lu Mingze glanced at her and asked casually.

"You have a different opinion?"

"..."

Ling opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak.

She should have been just a machine performing tasks without any emotion. Let alone offering opinions, she shouldn't have even asked about the previous reasons.

According to past habits, she only needs to listen to the task and execute it.

However, if this is really all it takes, then what's going on with the pain burning in her chest?

"Very good. Since you have no objection, your current mission is officially over and you can start the next one."

Seemingly taking her silence as no opinion, Lu Mingze continued to advance the topic.
To be continued...
