Chapter 3: Surprise(2/3)
The embrace of the Steam God Cult is quite natural.
Su Xiao recalled the temporary memory in his mind for a moment. He leaned forward and pressed the floor next to the table leg. With a click, a hidden drawer popped up in the desk. There were three thick notebooks in it. After opening it, it was filled with names.
And information, there are also messy photos posted next to each name.
What is recorded in this manuscript is the eyes and ears that have been developed in the treatment center for so many years. Now that the old man is gone, with Su Xiao's current status, he can certainly freely control this thing and decided to give it to the new director of the treatment center.
Vice-President, give it to the Duke.
For Su Xiao, this thing has no value in his hands. These eyes and ears are panicking. He himself cannot be stable. The power of one person cannot compare with the sense of security that a force can bring.
"Make a bid, my... new friend."
The Duke smiled and spoke, even grinning to reveal his metal teeth.
This sentence has too many meanings. After hearing this, Baha on the side winked at Eminem and Bubouwang. Eminem silently blocked the door, and Bubouwang blocked the door in front of Ilia.
, Bubu has a good impression of Sias, and of course he will take care of his daughter.
The "new friend" that the Duke said was clearly aware of the difference between Su Xiao and the original vice-president. Even so, the Duke did not say anything, but showed an attitude of continuing to cooperate.
This arrogant, alcoholic leader of the Cult of Steam is definitely more difficult to deal with than he looks.
"Are you sure you want to buy it?"
When Su Xiao spoke, he was also trying in a subtle way. The implication of this sentence was, does the other party really dare to cooperate with him without knowing his true origin?
"What can I not dare to buy if it doesn't come from outside the city?"
The Duke finished speaking and drank the wine in the glass. The real meaning of this sentence is that he has determined that Su Xiao is not a strange existence from outside the wall. If this is the case, then they can cooperate.
"The people here have all worked for the treatment center..."
"50 pieces."
The Duke pulled a money bag from his robe and placed it on the table.
After Su Xiao opened it, she found a gold coin inside. The front of the gold coin was printed with a fork-shaped symbol, and the reverse was a sharp claw. The claw looked a bit like a human hand. The tip of the claw was sharp, but not too long.
Seeing this sharp claw, Su Xiao remembered that when he entered this world, he had an experience that was like a fantasy. At the end of the 'phantom', a huge claw lifted him out of the darkness. At this time, he looked at the gold coin.
The sharp claws are exactly the same as those in the memory.
[You get 50 ancient gold coins.]
Su Xiao remained calm. In the title shop, a six-star title cost 100 ancient gold coins, and the top three seven-star titles cost 500 to 650 gold coins.
"This is not a question of gold coins..."
"Bai Ye, this is just a deposit. After the list is verified, there will be a balance of 450 coins."
"..."
Su Xiao didn't say anything. He had to hold on tight at this time. He believed that the Duke would pay a higher price.
The Duke on the opposite side remained calm. He was sure that Su Xiao would definitely take action on this list. Now those with the best eyes and ears belong to the treatment center. A group of new people replaced the old ones. After the new blood of the treatment center gradually took power, they
Wouldn't believe the eyes and ears left behind by these former members.
Furthermore, these eyes and ears will not accept the new members of the treatment center easily. They have deep feelings with the old members, but it will be different if they work for the Steam God Cult across different forces. In this case
If they have no choice but to change jobs, their new boss will definitely reuse them.
"Since you don't want to give up, then forget it. I don't like forcing others to make things difficult for me."
The Duke stood up and walked, one step, two steps, three steps...
In front of the door, the Duke stood there silently, and Su Xiao didn't speak either. The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
"Add another 50."
The Duke almost squeezed out these words through his teeth.
"You are so sincere that it is hard to refuse."
Su Xiao put the thick notebook on the table. The Duke, who sat down again, crossed his legs and looked through the information in the notebook. The more he read, the more satisfied he became.
"If the two old immortals over there know that you sold this thing, they will be so angry that they can't even hold their crutches."
The Duke spoke with a hint of ridicule. The old guys he was talking about were the two people currently in power in the Healing Church, namely Archbishop Russo and Holy Priest Antossa.
The Archbishop and the Holy Priest are the pinnacle of power in the healing church, but these two people do not go out in the cathedral all year round.
Mentioning these two old guys, the Duke's expression was wrong. After all, he grew up being plotted by these two old guys. Although the Duke is now over fifty and has become the overlord of the party, in his heart, he still has not forgotten that he was
Those two old guys had plotted against each other, and the worst plot ever happened was when he was forced to kill his own brother.
Of course, Su Xiao knew about these two old immortals. His way of dealing with them was not to meet them at all. They were old men and cunning ghosts. Those two old guys might not be as simple as being corrupted into ghosts by time.
"The treatment center has finally declined. Bai Ye, have you ever considered working for me? If you are willing to come, the entire Wrath Hammer will be under your management, and I will never interfere."
"..."
Su Xiao didn't reply. Seeing this, the Duke didn't ask any more questions. He stood up and walked out. When he reached the door, he seemed to suddenly remember something and said:
"I heard that you have a conflict with the newly transferred director and deputy director of the treatment center?"
"..."
Su Xiao picked up the Dragon-Slaying Flash from its sheath and looked sideways at the Duke.
"Since you see that they are unhappy, I will take matters into my own hands and help you deal with it. No need to thank me."
The heroic laughter gradually faded away in the corridor. The Mechanical Duke was just like the rumors, and he did not follow any rules.
After turning the corner of the corridor, the Duke stopped laughing. He felt a little disappointed. If Su Xiao had just been provoked to take action, he would not have to pay the subsequent 500 ancient gold coins. This thing is worth one less.
.
In the office, after the Duke left, Baha said: "Boss, this guy is too arrogant."
"He did it on purpose."
Su Xiao chose to hand over those eyes and ears to the Steam God Cult not only for the ancient gold coins. It would be best if someone could stand in front of the unexpected events on the God's Festival three days later. Now the Steam God Cult's Wrath Hammer Agency has taken the initiative to make this trip.
Of course Su Xiao will not stop Muddy Waters.
Su Xiao opened the drawer, rummaged inside for a while, and pulled out a document cover based on the location in the temporary memory. After opening it, a person's information appeared on it.
"Your Excellency, Crank, is 27 years old, unmarried, and the eldest son of the Mechanical Duke. He has ordinary talent and has no interest in wealth, beauty, or status. At the age of 17, he already held an important position in the Steam God Cult with his extraordinary mind.
"
The son of the Mechanical Duke is both excellent and does not have very strong extraordinary qualifications. This is a contradictory combination in the Steam God Religion, which respects the strong.
Su Xiao felt that if she didn't arrange a scene of a loving father and a filial son, she would be sorry for the mechanical duke who came to take advantage of the situation tonight.
Your noble son, Crank, has no interest in wealth, power, or beauty? It doesn't matter, [Betrayer's Will] specializes in this problem.
"The Will of the Betrayer: When the target becomes a son of the world, he will inherit the Will of the Betrayer, and there is a high probability that he will commit an act of betrayal.
The Will of the Betrayer: Those who inherit this will will feel an unimaginable sense of joy in their hearts when they betray others."
For a person like Mr. Krank, who feels indifferent to everything, once he experiences the pleasure of betraying the will of a betrayer, he will definitely become addicted to it.
The noble son Crank is working under his father. Maybe the dutiful son Crank will come online.
Su Xiao's index finger lightly touched the desk. Originally, he wanted to talk to the new dean and deputy dean and let them take over the treatment center. He was not going to continue to take over this mess. He just wanted to put his name on it for now.
As a result, the Duke over there was wiped out before any contact could be made. The Duke has a keen sense of smell and knows that something big will happen on the God's Festival Day three days later. Even if he does too much now, as long as he doesn't do it openly,
The face of the Healing Church, the Healing Church will only settle accounts later and will not fall out immediately.
Originally, he wanted to see if there was any talent among the newcomers, but now it failed. Just as Su Xiao was thinking this, suddenly there was an aura approaching. He looked into the yard from the window and saw a ghost drifting in.
Seeing that there was such a good thing, Su Xiao prepared to catch it and keep it as a mana recovery package, but when he looked closely, he felt that the ghost seemed a bit familiar.
Picking up a document on the table, Su Xiao opened it and compared it. The ghost that floated back was actually the unlucky new dean. It has to be said that the position of dean of the treatment center is too risky, but 90 of them
% of the risk comes from the associate dean and the rest is external.
Seemingly noticing Su Xiao's gaze, Ghost looked up at the office. A look of hatred gradually appeared on his translucent, pale face, and he rushed straight towards Su Xiao.
Su Xiao opened the window and took a few steps back. A cold wind blew in. Just as the new dean rushed towards him with the cold wind and a terrifying wailing sound, a big bloody hand formed behind Su Xiao, like pinching a frog, and pulled the new dean away.
Hold it in your hand.
After a ghostly howl, the new dean was almost crushed to death. This dear man must have been too unwilling to accept it, so he waited for the ghost to return. He took up the position in fear, but soon learned that Su Xiao, as the deputy dean, was not dead.
, this man ran away immediately.
Unexpectedly, while he was still sleeping in the hotel, the Duke came to see him personally. The Duke only came to see Su Xiao after getting rid of him.
After initial perception, Su Xiao found that it was resentment and other negative emotions. After combining with the soul of grievance composed of soul energy, he lost interest, clenched his fist with blood, and crushed it with a pop.
In just over half an hour, people rushed to the headquarters of the treatment center one after another. Su Xiao discovered that these were all new members. The tragic death of the new dean and deputy dean made these new members a little confused, so they all came to the treatment center.
These people can be supplemented as new blood, and they have naturally received corresponding training. Around 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the headquarters of the treatment center returned to the bright lights of the past. Obviously, several senior officials were not prepared to make this matter too clear.
I want to settle accounts with the Duke.
After ordering supper and sitting around the desk, Su Xiao found that Ilia was still standing aside obediently.
"Have a meal."
To be continued...
