Lin Fan's face turned a little pale.
He had originally guessed that Gu Ran must have failed and fled, and could not kill William Duville, but he did not expect that Gu Ran not only killed William Duville so easily, but also completed the task beyond the target.
He killed all the masters in the entire E Zone Legion Headquarters, and it was easy, easier than killing a pig.
Is this a fucking A-level mutant
Even if it is because of the characteristics of spatial abilities that it is very difficult to defend against when one is below S-level, it is still too awesome.
He was also hailed as a genius since childhood, and he defeated many people who were also called geniuses.
But if compared with Gu Ran who was of the same age, he was completely beaten.
Even when he was at the A-level psychic stage, he did not have such combat power to kill more than twenty B-level and A-level psychics so easily.
However, what comforted Lin Fan was that Gu Ran acted so arrogantly that he would definitely not be able to complete what he promised.
"Although the tyrant is very powerful, he has already completely angered the Duville family. Now he is just venting his anger at most."
"I will definitely not be able to fulfill the promise I made to the Yang family. I am still not mature enough."
Lin Fan shook his head pretending to be regretful, as if he was on Gu Ran's side, and did not mention the fact that he had guessed that Gu Ran could not kill William Duville and then got slapped in the face.
Others thought the same thing, and they really had to admire Gu Ran's extraordinary talent, but the young man was hot-tempered and only cared about his own momentary pleasure, and his overall view was still lacking.
Of course, Gu Ran has done very well at his age, and they think they couldn't do better if they were in that situation.
"But why is Gu Ran dialing the Duville family's exclusive channel at this moment? Is he trying to humiliate Finn Duville?"
Someone asked in surprise after seeing Gu Ran using the communicator to reconnect with Finn Duville's video call.
Could it be that he wanted to kill the person and then destroy his heart
... ...
In the light screen.
"More than seven minutes, not too long. We meet again, Mr. Finn Duville." Gu Ran stood among the corpses and said with a smile to Finn Duville who was projected over the screen.
In fact, Gu Ran spent half of the seven minutes finding the way. The entire process from entering the E Zone Legion Headquarters to fighting with William Duville took no more than four minutes.
Finn Duville glanced around the environment where Gu Ran was, and when he saw a tall corpse cut in half, his pupils shrank slightly.
"Boy, what did you do?" Finn Duville asked in a deep voice, and at the same time he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Gu Ran waved his hand towards Finn Duville and said, "Oh, yes, you don't know where this place is yet. Then please allow me to introduce it to you."
"This is the E-area corps headquarters. The chief officer is William Duville, an A-level psychic. He has more than 20 B-level psychics and above."
Gu Ran's smile turned slightly cold: "But now, as you can see, I have killed them all. The time required for the whole process can be calculated by yourself from the time I communicated with you before."
"Beast!" Finn Duville's heart was immediately filled with rage. His eyes were bloodshot and he pointed at Gu Ran.
"I will kill you!" Finn Duville used all his strength to activate his supernatural powers, hoping to affect Gu Ran and make him "commit suicide."
However, no matter how hard Finn Duville tried, he could not do anything to Gu Ran. Gu Ran just looked at him with a smile, not affected at all.
In fact, Gu Ran didn’t know why he was not affected by Finn Duville’s psychic powers. He could only attribute this to one of his talents.
Therefore, facing Finn Duville, whom others deeply feared, Gu Ran did not feel the slightest bit of fear.
It was as if the head of the Duville family, who dominated the city of Saint Joel, was just an ordinary old man next door who was rather ugly.
Gu Ran picked his ears and pretended to be impatient and said, "How is it, have you tried enough?"
Finn Duville's face turned red. He tried several times with all his strength before he finally gave up on the idea of using his supernatural powers to kill Gu Ran remotely.
"Very good, tell me your name, young man." Finn Duville knew that he couldn't kill Gu Ran immediately, so he calmed down. "You did such a bad thing and still communicated with me. I guess you want to make a name for yourself, right?"
38. Finn Duville had to compromise
"Then you succeeded." Finn Duville suppressed his anger and said, "The Duville family will fight you to the death from now on. Your bounty will be spread to the 19 main cities of the Human Alliance."
"Everyone who walks in the dark world will regard you as an enemy, and you will never have peace!"
Gu Ran said nonchalantly, "Okay, Mr. Finn Duville, have you finished your harsh words? Then let me speak next.
"The Duville family rose to prominence when Saint Joan City was built three hundred and fifty years ago. Since almost half of the funds for the construction of Saint Joan City came from the Duville family, it became one of the top families in Saint Joan City. Later, together with several other families, it controlled the political center of Saint Joan City and became one of the ruling families.
“It has been passed down to your generation, which is already the seventh generation.
"This is a family with a history of more than three hundred years. It has been a top family since the early days of Saint Joe City.
"Mr. Finn Duville, you don't want to see the Duville family decline in your hands, do you
"Don't be so quick to deny my words. As far as I know, your position as ruler next year is not very stable. Do you want to lose the ruling qualification that your ancestors fought for you?"
Gu Ran said it softly, but his words hit Finn Duville's heart like a heavy hammer.
Finn Duville suddenly had countless guesses in his mind. He said with an unpleasant expression, "Which family are you from? Miller? Hall? Or the Mitchell family?"
These families are among the top families in Saint Joel City and are not very friendly to Duville, so he immediately regarded Gu Ran as a killer assassin sent by these families.
"Not yet." Gu Ran smiled slightly, "I have not yet had any contact with these families, but if Mr. Finn Duville wants to give up the ruling position and let the Duville family's reputation plummet and decline, then I can contact them.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Finn Duville, you probably don't know the 'good things' that Mr. Kelly Duville, the military genius of your family, has done.
"He made mistakes in command, causing the army of tens of thousands to be defeated. Then he wanted to use the city defense cannon to kill all those who knew about it and murder his fellow soldiers. If this information were known by other families, would it become a sharp arrow piercing the Duville family and the last straw that made the Duville family lose its ruling position?"
Gu Ran's words made Finn Duville's face pale, but he quickly concealed his feelings and said coldly:
"Humph, what do you think a top family is? You want to bring down the Duville family with just this little thing? I tell you, as long as I give a heads-up to all the newspapers in Saint Joel City, no one will dare to publish these things.
"Who would believe what you say? What evidence do you have? The background of the Duville family in Saint-Yor City is beyond your imagination.
"You, a wild boy who came out of nowhere, want to threaten the Duville family? You really don't know your own limitations!"
Gu Ran had been observing Finn Duville's expression. After noticing the fleeting change in Finn Duville's expression, he was 100% sure of his guess in his heart.
"Mr. Finn Duville, I heard that psychic powers are more difficult to develop than ordinary powers, and power crystal cores are also more difficult to 'grow' than ordinary power crystal cores."
"Although the major families in Saint-Yor City have agreed that the ruling position will be rotated among the heads of the major families, this is based on a basic premise, that is, it must be held by a strong S-level psychic."
"If there is no S-class psychic to serve as the head of the family, then he will automatically lose the qualification to govern."
Finn Duville snorted, seemingly not caring about what Gu Ran said: "You think I'm not an S-level psychic? What a joke, what a joke. Although you do have some ability to make my ability ineffective, don't other families know whether I'm an S-level psychic or not?"
Gu Ran smiled: "Yes, of course you are an S-level psychic, because even if you are a pseudo-S-level, you have indeed entered the realm of S-level psychics."
"It's just that the way you entered the S-level stage doesn't seem to satisfy all the top families with the qualifications to govern, and the strength of you and the Duville family doesn't seem to be enough to make those top families shut up."
"If at this time, those top families who are not satisfied with the Duville family taking over as the ruling family get to know the stupid things that the Duville family's military genius did on the front line of the beast tide, will they help publicize it?"
"If those top families attack the Duville family and make the Duville family lose its ruling position, would it be reasonable to follow the will of the people? How will you, Mr. Finn Duville, who is only a pseudo-S-level, deal with the pressure from other top families?"
"Could it be that the position of the head of the family will be passed on to someone else in the Duville family? But as far as I know, due to a family strife twenty years ago, the strength of the Duville family was greatly damaged, and all the heirs who were suitable to be the head of the family have died. Therefore, at present, Mr. Finn Duville is the only one in the Duville family who is most suitable to be the head of the family."
"However, the person who is most suitable to be the head of the family is not the one who is suitable to govern Saint Joel City. This is very interesting."
"If at this time, those top families heard that there was an A-level mutant who was constantly hunting down the Duville family, and the Duville family had no way to deal with him, do you think they would underestimate the strength of the Duville family?"
"When these top families unite to target the Duville family, will the Duville family lose its ruling position in Saint Joel City in your hands and decline?"
Gu Ran looked at Finn Duville and said calmly, "Okay, Mr. Duville, I've finished what I want to say. Do you want me, a small A-level space ability user, to help the other top families deal with the Duville family? Or should we put aside our past grudges and become friends?"
When Gu Ran said, "Let's put aside our past grudges and be friends," Finn Duville's expression was particularly wonderful.
Because "let's be friends with each other" was exactly what he had said to Gu Ran before, but he didn't expect that Gu Ran would return the words to him in the blink of an eye.
Killing the core members of a top family in St. Joe City in front of him, eliminating important forces of his family, and then the other party told him to "put aside the past grudges and be friends", what would the head of the next ruling family, an S-level psychic, do
Finn Duville's face changed several times.
Finally, he forced himself to smile: "The Duville family loves making friends the most, and they are always generous to their friends. I hope that we... can become loyal friends to each other."
39. The deal is done, Yang Tian is worried about gains and losses
Compromised, the head of the Duville family, Finn Duville, actually compromised!
Everyone outside the light screen couldn't believe the result.
He killed people from your family, and first he killed the one who provoked you in front of you, and then he killed another core member of your family and eliminated all the forces belonging to your family. How could you compromise and make friends with him
This result shocked everyone.
Lin Fan especially could not accept this result. He felt his face burning as he was slapped by Gu Ran.
He couldn't help muttering:
"How is this possible... Is this old guy really the head of the Duville family? Can he let go of someone who offended the Duville family like this?"
Cheng Youmeng was not surprised by this result, because she had long expected that Gu Ran would dare to act in this way, for example, he had his own considerations and confidence.
And after hearing what Gu Ran said just now, she also understood somewhat the source of Gu Ran's confidence.
"In fact, nothing is impossible. Our previous speculations were based on the fact that Finn Duville will become the ruler of Saint Joel City next year, and the Duville Family will become the most powerful ruling family. Finn Duville will naturally not let go of ordinary people who dare to offend the Duville Family."
"But it is obvious that his position as ruler next year is not stable, so it is questionable whether the Duville family can become the ruling family. Once the Duville family really loses its position as the ruling family due to some accident, it will be a fatal blow to the Duville family."
"This is something Finn Duville cannot accept, and he cannot take any risk."
"Then after... Gu Ran demonstrated his strength and got the leverage over the Duville family, the risk is undoubtedly increasing rapidly."
"So even though Gu Ran killed two core members of the Duville family and humiliated Finn Duville in person, Finn Duville had no choice but to accept Gu Ran's kindness after he showed him a bit of goodwill."
