New cities above level D will have "Ten City Defenders", representing the ten most powerful people in the city defenders. Their salaries are more than ten times that of ordinary city defenders.
The ten elite defenders of the city are divided into two levels.
The chief, and nine other heroes. The chief's salary is the sum of the other nine heroes.
It is conceivable that the chief's strength must be far ahead of the others.
Xiao Quan, the chief of the ten heroes who defended the new city in D067. Although he is not the one with the best relationship with Thief Lu among the ten elite defenders of the city, he is the one who makes Thief Lu feel the most secure. This is also the consensus of others. After all, "Xiao Quan took action and turned danger into good fortune."
For such a master, being the housekeeper of the Xiao family seems a bit overkill. But if you think about it carefully, it seems normal that the most powerful person in the city personally protects the person with the most power in the city.
Tong Si stopped using his superpower and called out respectfully: "Brother Xiao."
Xiao Quan said: "The city lord said before that you are not dead. I thought he was joking at the time, but I didn't expect it to be true. I am very happy that you are not dead."
Tong Si's face turned slightly red as if he had been slapped.
He has been assigned to Xincheng as an "undercover" by the Horizon Business Group more than once, and his psychological quality has been trained to perfection. Even if he witnessed the destruction of the new city every time, he would not feel the slightest sense of guilt.
But Xiao Quan is different.
During the time that Tong Si was in D067 New City, he could feel that Xiao Quan treated him sincerely, like a biological brother. Tong Si even had trouble sleeping several times, hesitating whether he should tell Xiao Quan the truth - Tong Si's mission of destroying the city should continue. He could at least let Xiao Quan escape in advance.
Young Master Zhang saw the guilty look on Tong Si's face and felt unhappy, but this was definitely not the time to rebuke his subordinates. He smiled and said, "Uncle Xiao, why are you in the mood to go out for a walk today?"
Xiao Tianchou said: "I am not taking a walk, but I am here to stop my incompetent daughter. I am afraid that she will kill you carelessly."
Young Master Zhang said: "Uncle Xiao is too worried. My sister from the Xiao family can't hurt me."
Xiao Tianchou said: "What if we add Ah Quan? I think you know his superpowers very well."
Of course Young Master Zhang knew that he had done enough intelligence work before taking action, and it was impossible to miss anyone but the leader of the ten heroes who defended the city.
Xiao Quan's superpower is called "Heartbeat Superman", a veritable superhuman ability.
This ability is not about making oneself charming and making the heart of the opposite sex beat wildly. Instead, superpowers can accumulate "heartbeat energy" based on the odd number of heartbeats, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9... The maximum limit is the 999th. This heartbeat energy not only allows superpowers to have a superhuman body, but it can also emit energy waves. The energy wave that accumulates after the 999th heartbeat can easily blow up an entire street. After it is released, the heartbeats will be counted again. As long as Xiao Quan is alive and the heartbeat energy is not released, he will always store the energy of the 999th heartbeat. In other words, many people's special moves require charging up during battle, but Xiao Quan can use them at any time.
Although Mr. Zhang's super power is teleportation, its range is extremely limited. If Xiao Quan takes action and the bombing range of the energy wave is greater than his teleportation range, he will still be blown to death.
Young Master Zhang said: "Uncle Xiao, if you say this, it means you want to kill me."
Xiao Tianchou said: "You decide for yourself whether I should kill you or not."
Young Master Zhang had realized that he had underestimated this old man who was so skinny that he looked like he might pass away at any time. Although the cleft skin disease, known as the "curse of the old city", tortured the old man, it also became a disguise for him to show weakness.
Young Master Zhang never doubted whether the old man was pretending to be ill.
"Uncle Xiao, it seems that my men have not really tampered with your memory."
Xiao Tianchou said: "They tampered very successfully."
As soon as these words came out, Young Master Zhang knew that he had lost everything.
"So you took advantage of it."
Xiao Tianchou said: "You are very smart, but you should not underestimate a person who broke into the old city in his early years and has been in charge of the new city for more than 20 years, even if he is already in his twilight years."
Young Master Zhang said: "In that case, why didn't you stop me from the beginning?"
Xiao Tianchou said: "Master Zhang Da Longshou wants to practice in my small town. Of course I want to give him face. I am also a little curious about how far you can push things at such a young age."
Dalongshou is the name given to the president of the business association by the older generation. Xiao Tianchou seems to have an old relationship with his father.
The dandyism in Mr. Zhang's body has completely disappeared, and he seems to be a new person who is respectful and humble.
"How would Uncle Xiao give me a score?"
Xiao Tianchou said: "You are more than a hundred times better than my own son, but you are still far behind your father. Are you really Zhang Dalongshou's biological son?"
The first words sounded like compliments, but the second words sounded like curses.
Young Master Zhang was neither ashamed nor angry, and even a little happy: "Of course I can't compare to my father. My father is a gifted talent from heaven. I was just lucky enough to be reborn in his lap, and I inherited a little bit of cleverness."
Xiao Tianchou said: "Your little cleverness has cost a lot of lives."
Young Master Zhang said: "If you kill me, I can't even pay for it with my life. Why don't you tell me the amount? The Horizon Merchant Group is willing to compensate me for my recklessness."
Xiao Tianchou said: "I didn't say I wanted to kill you. I just said that I came here to stop my daughter."
Xiao Qingyao said: "Father, we can't let him leave like this."
Xiao Tianchou said: "If he didn't come to the warehouse today, would you take the initiative to come and kill him?"
Xiao Qingyao was silent for a few seconds, "No."
Xiao Tianchou said: "Then just pretend that he has never been here."
Xiao Qingyao said: "But that's not the truth."
Xiao Tianqiu said: "Where is the truth not like this? It may not be the case in other places, but in D067 New City, I, Xiao Tianqiu, am the truth."
Xiao Qingyao wanted to refute, but was pulled back by Lianrou.
Lianrou knew very well that the two brothers who were Xiao Qingyao would never contradict the city lord. This is why Xiao Qingyao's ability is far superior to that of the two brothers, but he is not loved by the city lord. Rather than patriarchal as she always thought. Xiao Qingyao didn't understand such a simple truth, maybe it was just a fan of the authorities.
Young Master Zhang said: "Then Tong Si and I can leave now, right?"
Xiao Tianchou said: "Yes, you two can go."
Young Master Zhang knows the rules. The men he sent out were already in danger, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked, "What do you mean..."
Xiao Tianchou said: "If you didn't ask, you would still have some respect. If you open your mouth to ask, you will reveal your cowardice, which will really embarrass your father. Don't worry, my two sons may be idiots, but they can still do such physical work as burying them alive." Beautiful. Let’s go, you won’t suffer.”
Young Master Zhang said: "I'm not saying anything else, I'm afraid that my Uncle Han and Uncle Zhang can't find me and cause trouble to Uncle Xiao again. Could you please send someone to give them a message when the time comes."
Xiao Tianchou said: "I think there is no need for this. What you are provoking is Wu Chan. He is not an ordinary Wu family, but the biological son of Wu Mi, the head of the Wu family. Your two amulets are looking for him. For a moment, it’s like two dead people.”
