As time goes by, the influence of the three giants on the Hall of Valor has become increasingly serious. Ben wouldn’t be clear about this. With the establishment of Zero Company, he and Beyoncé secretly supported Zero. In fact, it was also a way for Ben to express his goodwill to the Black Rose family, which is the last of the three giants, through Zero. .
Some things don't need to be said so clearly. A slight hint from both parties is stronger than any agreement. For Ben, joining forces with the Black Rose family to check and balance the two giants of Helburn and Planning is a necessary political means. And the Black Rose family, with the help of the power from the highest power in the country, has great hope of getting rid of the disadvantages it has always had, so why not do it.
In this way, how could Helburn or the Plannings ignore all this in silence
Therefore, Charles' arrival was expected. And Zero also knew that he had to deal with this matter alone. Douglas and Beyoncé should not intervene, because their intervention will only make the conflict escalate faster. What's more, this is a chance to test zero.
What Zero was going to do, he already knew what to do when he sent Theon away.
As Theon said, those who violate our borders will be rewarded with thunder. Kindness also depends on the target. For someone like Charles, if Zero's attitude is too weak, he will definitely not be able to calm things down. On the contrary, it will disappoint many people on the sidelines, and people like Charles who stand in a hostile position will patronize his company every day. At that time, all the progress of zero will be delayed by these people!
As Theon's car drove out of the base, Zero turned and returned to the lobby. In the dimly lit hall, a flame rose from the pupil of Zero's right eye.
In the weapons exhibition hall, Feng and Su stood in the corner chatting in low voices. These nobles are naturally entertained by staff, and when it comes to business, the two of them know nothing about it, so they are naturally happy.
While talking, the two frowned at the same time, and looked at the door together. At the same time, the door was forcefully separated from both sides, and the sudden loud noise made all the nobles in the exhibition hall frown. After all, as far as their common sense is concerned, this is extremely rude behavior. But when they saw Charles striding in through the door, the nobles kept their mouths shut.
Charles Lambston, his family is not something these low-level nobles can provoke, so the nobles retreated one after another when they saw his menacing approach.
The person in charge of leading the public relations team is a middle-aged man named Pat. He has worked in the Black Rose family for many years, so he naturally recognizes people like Charles. Others can back off, but he can't back off as a supervisor, so he can only bite the bullet and step forward and say, "Master Charles is here in a big way, we are truly magnificent."
Charles sneered and didn't even look at Pat. A middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "Ask the manager to come out."
Pat was sweating profusely behind his back. Even a blind man could tell that they were here to find trouble. It was a pity that Charles couldn't call the security guard in because of his status. The struggle among the nobles is very strange. While fighting openly and secretly, they will not tear their faces unless necessary. Just like the three giants, they probably curse their opponents in every possible way behind their backs, but they treat each other with courtesy when they meet in public.
If Pat called the security in now, it would be tantamount to tearing face off with Charles. It's no big deal to offend the Lambston family. The problem is that behind him is the giant of the Helburn family. Therefore, even though Pat saw that the man who looked like Charles' guard was very rude, he still had to laugh and said: "I am the supervisor here, if Master Charles has anything to say, just tell me."
The guard was very tall and wore a western-colored suit. But the muscles all over his body were pumped up, as if they would burst this expensive costume at any time. He stepped forward, and Pat only came to his chest, and saw the guard showing a row of white teeth and grinning: "How can a dog have the right to talk to our young master? If you don't call him out, I'm welcome!" gone."
He exudes the unique energy breath of a capable person. Pat is just an ordinary person, and his feet suddenly go limp in front of this lion-like tiger-like figure. If you are about to lose control, you will lose face for the company. Fortunately, at this time, there was another momentum behind him rushing forward, blocking the power of the guard, so that Pat didn't make a fool of himself in public.
Feng came up from behind with a smile, and gently pulled Pat away to stand forward: "I am a shareholder of this company, what advice does Master Charles have?"
The guard's pupils dilated first, and then shrank suddenly. Repeat this three times before stepping back. When he came to Master Charles, he said in a low voice: "This person's aura is indiscriminately elegant and flexible. He should be good at quick attacks. Moreover, the energy brilliance on his body is blood red. In other words, this person should be a great swordsman or something like that." High-level abilities."
"Advanced? It's really surprising." Charles whispered, "Are you sure you can beat him, Bodong?"
The guard stared at Feng, and said with a chuckle: "It's a bit difficult for a fair duel, but if it's a battlefield, this is just a baby."
"That's fine."
Charles stepped forward and said to Feng: "This is decent, I am a big customer. I want to buy a batch of weapons recently. I heard that your company's equipment is not bad, so come and have a look. Let me see, what do you have?" goods."
Feng laughed and said, "Then let us, Director Pat, introduce you to the young master."
After all, Feng winked at Pat. Pat hurried to the weapon rack, wanting to get an ordinary rifle. But after thinking about it, he called someone to bring a dark blood rifle directly from the arsenal. Charles was not fooled by ordinary nobles. Holding an ordinary rifle would only embarrass the company.
When Pat got a dark blood rifle, he came over and said: "This is our latest batch of new firearms, driven by high-capacity batteries, and supports a large magazine of 500 rounds. The built-in chip can switch between sniper and continuous There are two modes of shooting, the lethality is unquestionable... "
Listening to Pat's series of introductions, Charles was expressionless. He just looked straight at Pat, whose voice grew quieter by the end.
"Is it over yet?"
Said impatiently, Charles snapped his fingers and said, "Bodong, try this so-called dark blood rifle."
The big guard grinned grinningly, strode forward and snatched Pat's rifle. Pat flinched back, but the guard turned his gun and pointed it at his chin from bottom to top.
Everyone was stunned, and Feng's smile froze. It never even occurred to him that Charles's so-called gun test was actually such a test.
Pat said quickly: "Sir, don't do such a dangerous thing..."
At the end of his words, Podong has already pulled the trigger.
There was a series of screams in the exhibition room, the frightened men backed away, and the women screamed hysterically. Those who were closer were already frightened and fell to the ground, their aristocratic demeanor completely gone.
However, Feng frowned.
No more smiles.
Podong's entire head was tilted back almost ninety degrees, and the muzzle of the dark blood rifle was emitting a faint white smoke. The new guns are powered by batteries, but they don't sound like the gunpowder weapons of old. There was no smell of gunpowder in the white smoke, but it was purely caused by the instantaneous high temperature generated by the friction between the bullet and the muzzle when it exited the chamber at high speed.
However, the bullet had already been fired, but Podong didn't even leave a trace of blood.
A few seconds later, the guard pulled his head back, and he was completely intact!
Charles laughed, and said: "This is what you call a new weapon, gentlemen. Have you seen it? At such a close range, it can't even kill my guards. What are you ordering these garbage for, as decorations Is it? No, no, I don't think they're even worth as decorations, because they're too flimsy."
As soon as Charles finished speaking, Podong grabbed both ends of the rifle and pulled it hard. Immediately, the dark blood rifle made of new materials exploded into parts.
There was no sound in the exhibition hall.
Feng's eyes became extremely cold, what Charles had done had exceeded the bottom line he could bear. Nabodong's strength and physical strength were obviously astonishing. The dark blood rifle's lethality against ordinary soldiers was unquestionable, and even low-priced ability users would be afraid of it. But for a powerful user with high defense and high attack, it is really worth mentioning like a toy.
Charles recruited such a high-level ability user to act as a guard, and used tricks to belittle Zero Company's products. The intention is self-evident, but when Feng was thinking about how to get this place back, there was a lazy voice at the gate.
"The reason why the dark blood rifle did not exert its original power is because, Master Charles, your servants do not know how to use it. If Master Charles doesn't believe it, I have a normal model pistol that has just been produced here. If your men can stop me Once this pistol is shot, Zero Point Company will close down immediately. But if it can’t be stopped, what do you think, Master Charles?”
Charles turned around with a cold face, and saw Zero playing with an automatic pistol. The firearm in Zero's hands is nothing more than an ordinary one, and it looks like an old-fashioned pistol. Not to mention its power against Bodong, even Charles himself thought he could take a head-on blow. Zero's argument with this pistol was precisely because he had asked Podong to belittle the Darkblood rifle just now.
Facing Zero's tit-for-tat, Charles said that he could not refuse such a proposal. He looked at Bodong, who nodded, and Charles smiled and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Zero. Your achievements and bravery are all role models for my generation. But if you say that you can use a small pistol to hurt my guard." , but I don’t believe it. How about it, if Podong can’t stop me, I’ll take care of all orders from Mr. Zero at Lambston’s!”
"It's a deal." With a faint smile on his face, Zero said again: "Then invite this Mr. Podong to test the gun outside. I don't want to accidentally injure any gentleman or lady here."
Hearing that Zero was thinking about his own safety, the nobles present, both male and female, showed expressions of gratitude. In contrast, Charles' unrestrained provocation and putting them in danger made them unhappy. Although these people are inferior nobles, if they unite, they will have a certain influence. Zero looked in his eyes and knew that his goal had been achieved.
Gather sand into a tower.
Zero thought of what Theon said when he left: Don't underestimate any one person, the strength is small, but when gathered together, it is also a huge force. Especially for things like politics, those in positions of power have absolute right to speak, but if there are enough people who oppose it, it is a force that has to be taken seriously.
In a simple sentence, Zero earned the favor of nearly a hundred nobles in this exhibition hall. Maybe these good feelings can't give Ling any direct benefits now, but one day, they will become Zero's wealth.
Wealth is not just money.
Coming outside the empty base, Zero and Podong were exposed to the cold air without any scruples. It is already late at night, and the temperature is only about minus 25 degrees. Ordinary people will not be able to stand such a temperature for a while, not to mention being directly exposed to the air full of radiation for too long will cause irreversible damage to ordinary people. Only high-level ability users like Zero or Podong can completely ignore the impact of the harsh environment.
Therefore, many people gathered in the hall, looking at the two people in the open space through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Charles crossed his arms and sneered. He had great confidence in Bodong. Bodong was no ordinary guard, but a personal guard directly subordinate to his father, the head of the Lambston family's guards. Bodong's superficial ability is seventh-level power and defense, but he is also a demon-type ability user in the mutant domain.
Podong's ability to transform into a dark tyrant, a terrifying demon who uses various dark energy. It is no exaggeration to say that Podong alone is equivalent to an army!
Therefore, Charles never thought that Podong would lose, especially to that kind of powerless small pistol!
In the open space, Zero pulled out the magazine of the pistol and pulled out the bullets one by one until there was only one bullet left in the magazine. He shook Bodong's eyes and said, "Look, there is only one bullet in it, so I don't want to Will shoot you twice."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's get started, I'm still in a hurry to go back to sleep." Bodong didn't put the pistol in his eyes at all, even if this kind of thing hit him in the eye, it wouldn't hurt him at all.
Zero nodded, pushed the magazine, opened the safety and said, "So, where are you going to pick up the gun?"
Po Dong laughed, and stepped forward. He stretched out his big hand to grab Ling's pistol and put it on his forehead, saying: "Just shoot it here."
Zero showed a smile, which was full of danger: "Are you sure?"
In an instant, Zero's breath changed.
The blood-red energy brilliance visible to the naked eye overflowed from his body, and flowed towards the bullets in the gun, forming a terrifying power according to special rules.
Bodong's face changed, and in that kind of power, he came into contact with the breath of death and destruction.
That was no longer a bullet, but a storm of energy!
Podong hesitated.
"It's still too late to change your mind." Zero smiled lightly.
Podong gritted his teeth and took ten steps back. After thinking about it again, he stepped back another twenty steps. But at this distance, the power in the barrel of the gun is still like maggots. It was only then that Bodong remembered that Charles had shown him Zero's files when he came here. At that time, he just glanced at it and didn't take it to heart. Now recalling it carefully, the information about Zero was immediately pulled out.
In the picture of memory, "Shadow Wanderer" is impressively written in the column of Zero's occupation.
So, is it "death crit"? Damn, careless. Bo Dong thought.
Death crit is the unique ability of the shadow stalker. The ability user will attach a cloud of energy storm to the bullet. When the bullet hits the target, the instantaneous fusion generated by the energy storm will release an explosion power no less than that of an infantry missile.
For the shadow wanderer, the bullet is just a medium, and the real killer is the energy storm on it.
Zero is now using this ability to deal with Bodong, but in the eyes of laymen, it is indeed just a bullet!
This is similar to Bodong's use of his seventh-level defense to carry out a close-range attack with a dark blood rifle, and it feels like an eye for an eye. It's just that what Zero did was even more subtle, but much better than Podong.
After hesitating again, Podong backed away again.
Once retreated this time, it was 100 meters!
"It seems that your guards are very afraid of the small pistols we produce."
Behind Charles, such a sentence sounded, followed by bursts of low laughter, full of sarcasm. Charles looked back angrily, and saw Feng's frowning face.
For the enemy, Feng has never been stingy with his poisonous tongue.
Charles turned his head angrily, looked at Bodong in the open space, and quietly clenched his fists.
"Come on!" After putting on a defensive stance, Bodong shouted at Zero.
Zero didn't answer and simply pressed the trigger.
In the open space, flames were seen spewing out from the muzzle of the zero gun. The bullet had already rotated out of the chamber, and the energy brilliance wrapped around the bullet dragged out a clear trajectory in the darkness!
The onlookers were relaxed, but to the person involved, Bodong only felt that the small warhead had a ferocious force like a beast attached to it. It seemed that what was fired was no longer a bullet, but an infantry missile!
The flow of time slowed down, and the oppressive momentum brought by the death crit hit like a mountain. Podong raised one hand first, and then the other hand was also raised and crossed in front of him. But when the bullet was approaching, Bodong suddenly roared and rolled towards the open space on the left.
He didn't dare to take Zero's death crit.
That was a stupid and unwise behavior. On the battlefield, Bodong undoubtedly made the right choice. But now, of course, it's two different things.
It's just that when life and death were on the line just now, Bodong didn't think so much, and his body completely relied on instinct to avoid it. However, when the bullet passed his original position and disappeared into the vast darkness, there was no sign of the energy storm being released.
In the open space, only the wind still blows. The wind howled, as if mocking Bodong's stupidity. The expression on Bodong's face changed several times, he looked at Zero, glaring.
Zero said lightly: "What I attach to it is only the power of death crit and a little bit of energy."
Clearly, Podong has been tricked. The critical death blow of zero use and water made him look ugly, and Bodong's entire face was distorted. This was the greatest shame in his life. However, Bodong didn't know that not all shadow wanderers were able to play with the virtual reality of energy so superbly like Zero.
Charles Jun's face turned pale, and the result was already obvious. He only felt that the eyes behind him were full of sarcasm, and he couldn't stay here for a moment. Charles snorted heavily, and led the other guards to push the door out. Behind him, Feng's voice sounded again.
"My dear Master Charles, those orders..."
Charles turned around like a whirlwind, and almost roared out of his mouth: "Send the order to my house, and I won't miss you a penny!"
After speaking, he left angrily. It's just that the leaving figure has the taste of a bereaved dog.
