Johnny was still immersed in the atmosphere of making money and didn't react for a moment: "Which Baze?"
The lobby manager curled his lips: "That's the one from the Justice Order. How long has it been? You are still treating yourself like a master here. Is it really just two months ago?"
Since the Frost River Reality incident, the Order of Justice has lost two priests, An Weng and An Chengli. The sacrificial knights as the core combat force are almost dead, but follow-up support has been delayed. The Order here The branch fell into its weakest period.
The current chief priest, Zheng Xiao, has never been a strong person. Faced with the continuing complicated situation, his first order was to shrink and stand by, and even disposed of a batch of industries for this purpose.
The "wild store" purchased by Johnny contained part of the shares of the Order of Justice, and now they have all been withdrawn, so the lobby manager's sentiments are natural:
You are no longer worthy of me, so why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf
Johnny originally wanted to talk to the lobby manager about the art of management, but with his sharp eyesight honed in chaos for many years, he discovered that one of his most important intelligence sources had entered the tavern, so he waved his hand: "So what if he eats and drinks? B-class strong men should be treated like this."
The lobby manager sneered: "He is a sacrificial knight, and there is no priest behind him, so what kind of B-level is he?"
That's a hundred times better than you, a sissy selling your ass.
Johnny was also sneering in his heart, but in the end he just said: "Okay, let him drink during this period. If you really get drunk, you can spit out one or two of the core secrets of the Just Order, and you can turn them around in one or two hands, and a wine cellar can do it Earn it back…”
With a few words, he dismissed the lobby manager and told the fake man who was pinching his orchid finger at this moment to get out. Johnny was lamenting the demeanor and knowledge a professional manager should have, but he glanced at the bar on the first floor and his eyelids twitched twice:
Blood energy is a super drink that can only be purchased through other world channels such as honor points, but Baze not only gulps down the drink, but also uses it as a topping!
Now, even Johnny was suspicious. Did that bastard know that the shares were withdrawn, so he came here just to pretend to be crazy and fool around
But as a boss, now that I have spoken out, I can only bite the bullet and stick to it. At this time, the "intelligence source" had already gone up to the second floor, and he waved to the man:
"Hi, Black Box."
"Fakeyou, it's an iron box!"
"It's just a title, it doesn't make any difference, but if you can come up with something better, I can call you a treasure."
After exchanging a few dirty words in a pretense of intimacy and bumping fists, the two sat down on both sides of the table and entered transaction mode.
Unlike Johnny, who is a peripheral member in the association's name, Tiexiang is a member of the action team of the Xiacheng branch, and is the backbone of the association's efforts to cultivate. Therefore, it has a natural advantage in obtaining intelligence information.
In the previous Xiacheng branch's "wind leakage from all directions" situation, people like Tie Xiang at least opened a window. Because of this, in the face of the gradually tightening internal discipline, this guy is also full of complaints: "It's really impossible to survive now. We are purely blast walls, facing nuclear explosions, and then dying worthless. I must Leave as soon as possible... So now I am short of money and travel expenses!"
Johnny laughed: "For the sake of many years of cooperation, I am willing to raise more for you, but for the final project, we must find the bright spots or highlights."
"Fuck you, maybe I should put an extra serving of juicy meatballs in your mouth. Just because of your bad attitude, the prices in Xia City have gone up."
The two sides communicated closely with each other in an attitude that was both intimate and ferocious. After fifteen minutes, they finally reached an agreement with great difficulty. Iron Box once again raised his "travel expenses", while Johnny gained relevant information about a certain welfare home, as well as the scheduled plans of the Summer City branch action team in the next few days.
Regardless of whether the price is satisfactory or not, the iron box will habitually go downstairs with a dark face. Johnny will not tell him that this is the origin of the "black box" - what, you mean black box operation? They are not worthy of this level!
But soon, Johnny lost his teasing mood. In just these fifteen minutes, in front of the bar on the first floor of the cave, Baze spoiled at least two points of wine, successfully wiping out half of Johnny's previous profit, and even wanted to continue.
At this time, not only Johnny's eyelids, but also his eyebrows and apple muscles were twitching, but he really didn't have the courage to conflict with this well-known muscular man in Xia City...
Yes, this is the fundamental reason.
Johnny could only turn a blind eye and left his seat with a sullen face, returning to his private room in the cave house on the upper floor: the information was time-limited, and he had to make it happen as soon as possible.
However, not long after returning to the room, the dark network that he often logged into had not even passed the review, so the lobby manager made a call. In fact, there was no need, because the cave where Johnny was located was already shaking.
He only heard a worthless report: "Baze stopped the iron box, splashed him in the face, and then started fighting.
"I'm a black dog!"
Johnny finally couldn't help but curse. The problem was that it was meaningless. The worst thing was that the situation on the first floor of the cave quickly got out of control.
In the first thirty seconds, the "sissy" was still able to cry to him about the loss of assets and casualties. But in a deafening explosion, there was no sound over there.
Johnny immediately called the security captain of "Yedian", but the news he got made his blood boil and his eyes darkened: almost all of his security team, who paid millions in salary every month, were on the streets. As for the two prominent figures invited to watch, they didn't even have time to fight with the "sacrificial knight without the blessing of a priest" before they were drowned in the inexplicably excited waves of residents and drinkers.
Now there is a chaotic fight downstairs.
The vast majority of people came here for one purpose, but there was a lot of food for a lot of people—two thousandths or 16 billion, it was never said that it could be divided equally. Maybe many people have the idea of "the big guys eat meat, and we drink soup", but wouldn't it be better if there were fewer people drinking soup
Hidden competition and suppression are always present, and corresponding hostility and hatred are also accumulated layer by layer. Under the big goal, these "gunpowder" can still be controlled and temporarily placed in everyone's heart, but the premise is that they must not go overboard!
Johnny's scalp is going to explode. If the chaos continues and the accumulated gunpowder explodes completely, this wild shop can still be preserved, and it will soon welcome the "eighth boss".
At this time, the fate of the former boss is always not good.
He began to make frantic phone calls to various investors, as well as to the real big guys in the area - the military had a stake here, and occasionally received some tribute. Don't say anything else, just send out a small team, even if it is symbolic...
There was a muffled "bang" sound, the floor shook obviously, and Johnny almost jumped up. He turned around in shock and saw that the floor slab, which was made of red soil and reinforced with steel bars, had been forcibly penetrated.
In the hole that penetrated, half of the iron box that had just finished the deal with him came up. His head was flat and deformed, and his lumbar spine seemed to have been broken. One of his eyeballs had exploded. What was left was The one with a black and red blood hole looked forward blankly and met Johnny's gaze.
Facing this scene, the hair on Johnny's thighs stood up. Immediately afterwards, the triple-protected door was kicked open, and Baze, still holding a bottle of "blood energy", grinned and staggered in.
Soon the boots fell off, and half of the body fell down from the iron box. A muffled sound was heard, and then there was no sound.
"Baze, you're crazy!" Johnny's voice at this moment was so shrill that it surpassed that of his lobby manager. He completely forgot what the correct attitude was and could only shout based on instinct, "I am Xia Cheng Members of the chapter…”
At this point, he remembered that a member had just been stepped downstairs, and the subsequent words stopped abruptly.
Baze grinned and shook the bottle at him: "The wine is good!"
The shattering sound of the bottle and the explosion of sternum and flesh were heard at the same time. The only remaining bottle mouth fragment smashed through Johnny's chest and acted as a nail, nailing him to the wall. The plasma and visceral fragments "Puff." "The ground sprayed out, quickly dyeing a large area of the floor red, and also flowed down to the hole where the iron box had been hit.
Johnny opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth, and the remaining breath and life poured out of it mixed with blood. In his dilated pupils, Baze lost his wild smile, turned slightly sideways, knelt down on one knee piously, touched the ground with one hand, and touched his chest with the other:
"Glory to my Lord."
The scene in front of Johnny's eyes blurred, and his trance-like consciousness seemed to have entered another space. He saw layers upon layers of grids, like intertwined and spread spider webs in a dank jungle, adhering to every corner of the void.
Everything trembled on the spider web, including his remaining vitality and consciousness, dyeing this strange structure with dark red blood.
His soul seemed to be hooked by another spider thread, moving along the layered spider web. But this network is so deep and endless, with no end visible at all. We can only vaguely see a blood-red sun shadow in the distant deep sky - multiple joints and limbs are spread out on the edge, bending and moving, as if in a trance like a ferocious beast. The devil spider illuminates everything, controls everything, and destroys everything.
This was the end of Johnny's thinking. Fortunately for him, the "Wild Shop" run by the seventh owner finally survived the devastating blow. Even if part of the structure collapsed, the main body still existed. It just took a lot of effort to move the corpses out.
The news and bloodshed on both sides of the sea and inland were spread back to Xia City through various channels, and it was already noon when it spread widely.
Ronan had just finished school and returned to Gear with Xue Lei to have lunch with Raven and his security team. Opportunities to freely use gear buildings like this were being reduced every moment, and he cherished them very much.
However, someone soon interrupted the meal.
"I used to only know that you are a third-generation researcher, well, you are the third generation of a scientific research family, but are you still a hidden dignitary of the secret sect? Are the Blood Flame Order and the Justice Order already crawling at your feet? "
Zhang Yingying expressed her emotions freely, while Ronan didn't have to do anything, just a dull face, which was enough.
