Chapter 40: Windfall(1/2)
After going down to the second floor and looking at the evolution nest for a while, Su Xiao went to the living area behind the fortress, which was inside the hollowed-out mountain. He first looked at the sanitary conditions of the dormitory and other places, and then walked around the kitchen.
With a large population, all kinds of strange things may appear. Su Xiao will not always sit in the command room, but will occasionally come to the residential area to take a look.
Taking the elevator down to the mine, Su Xiao passed through a mine tunnel and went diagonally downward for a hundred meters before arriving at an underground space of more than a thousand square meters.
All kinds of facilities are available here, including the kitchen. The surrounding furnishings make people forget that they are underground. There is no sense of depression at all, but they feel safe.
Morey resumed her game, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, holding the controller and playing games. Her mission this time was to protect Moon Apostle, while Moon Apostle was thinking about life.
Su Xiao returned to the first floor of the fortress, took Bubu Wang, Baha, and Dorothy out of the fortress and went straight to Warehouse 2 a few hundred meters away. With the help of the large teleportation array in Warehouse 2, he arrived at Warehouse 1 in Liberty City.
Inside the warehouse.
At eight o'clock that night, Liberty City·District 2.
There are many pedestrians on the street, but there are no vehicles. The second district is the wealthy area of Liberty City. After 7 p.m., vehicles are prohibited from entering these blocks. Of course, for a small group of people, this prohibition is in vain.
Su Xiao walked among the pedestrians and determined the address based on the house number. He opened the door and walked into a mechanical prosthetic shop.
The mechanical prosthetics store seemed a bit crowded, with a glass booth on one side and a wall on the other side filled with various types of cheap mechanical prosthetics, as well as gunpowder kinetic firearms.
The owner of the mechanical prosthetic shop is a middle-aged man with a big waist and a big waist. He has a mechanical prosthesis on his left arm. He holds a cigar between the fingertips of his right hand. He only wears large pants all over his body. Except for his face, the rest of his exposed skin is covered with tattoos.
Read the newspaper with your legs crossed.
This is Caesar's partner, a member of the Brotherhood of Steel in the city, and the former deputy leader, Lao Mo.
Taking a closer look at Caesar's business partners in Liberty City, none of them are good. Needless to say, the slave merchant Azba and Lao Mo, one is a human trafficker and the other is an informant sent by the human race.
Lao Mo's eyes were still focused on the newspaper, as if he didn't see Su Xiao and others coming. The cigar in his hand was stuck in the center of the ashtray. After triggering some kind of mechanism, the device hidden under Su Xiao's feet was activated, and space fluctuations appeared.
When the space fluctuation stabilized, Su Xiao arrived in a room that was completely sealed around. It was about 20 square meters, with a square table in the middle and a seat on each side.
Su Xiao sat on one of the seats. Opposite the table was a human dressed in black robes with black cloth strips all over his body. He raised his hand and pressed it on the metal piece on the side of his neck, and said in a particularly hoarse voice:
"We have no choice but to meet in this way. This is the territory of the family after all."
The man in black robe had suffered injuries to his throat and vocal cords, and could only speak by pressing the metal piece on the side of his neck. He had to swallow saliva frequently when speaking.
These characteristics cannot satisfy the identity of a diplomatic envoy. It is obvious that he is a high-level official on the human race side.
Why did Su Xiao meet with the top management of the human race in the Free City, the territory of the Familia clan? The answer is that he wants to get rich in a short time, and the best way at the moment is to sell 100% pure [Upheaval Solution] like the human race.
Su Xiao completed this matter in a joint venture with Caesar. The last time he worked on the formula for [Dramatic Change Solution], he made two copies, of which Caesar contributed one.
After preparing the 100% pure "Dramatic Solution", Su Xiao gave a bottle to Caesar. After Caesar obtained the "Dramatic Solution", he did not sell it. Instead, he gave it to the top brass of the human race through secret channels.
At first, the high-ranking human being didn't pay too much attention. There is no free lunch in the world. However, a T5-level fortress is not a precious thing for that kind of person, so he used a T5-level mobile fortress for the experiment.
As you can imagine, the human race discovered that after the T5 fortress was injected with the [Dramatic Change Solution], the upward promotion path became smoother. Now the human race has upgraded the fortress to the T1 level. The effect of the [Deep Change Solution] is,
There is no longer any doubt.
It is no exaggeration to say that the 100% pure [Dramatic Solution] can change the existing situation.
Su Xiao's purpose this time is to sell the [Dramatic Change Solution] she just prepared.
The man in black robe opposite was not good at talking. Judging from his aura, he was a strong man who had climbed to a high position by his own strength.
In this transaction, the representatives of the human race have actually explained a lot of things. They clearly want to test Su Xiao's strength. If Su Xiao's strength is stronger than a certain level, they will continue the transaction.
If it is not stronger than that, we will start an investigation, and then grab the formula of [Dramatic Solution] and silence him.
Danger is everywhere, and only your own strength is the most reliable guarantee.
The man in black robe opposite said: "Let's discuss the price. What resources do you want?"
"Active Ore."
"In terms of active ore, our inventory is not very large, but your generosity last time made me ashamed. We will continue to cooperate in the future. 10,000 units of active ore is what I can come up with.
The highest price."
The bid of the man in black robe makes people's hearts beat faster. 1 unit of active ore = 100 kilograms of active ore. 10,000 units equals 1 million kilograms of active ore.
This price is not high for purchasing [Dramatic Solution], but for the recently defeated human race, this price is not low. They have been driven out of the area with the richest active mineral veins.
"make a deal."
"I have a hunch that we will cooperate again in the future. See you later."
The man in black robe stood up and walked towards the darkness behind with a graceful figure. The space device in the room was activated.
A large area of colorful colors appeared in front of his eyes. When Su Xiao's vision recovered, he had returned to the prosthetic shop. Lao Mo was still reading the newspaper behind the glass booth, but the iron gate outside the shop door had been lowered.
Su Xiao left the prosthetic shop through the back door, and Caesar, who had been waiting in the back alley for a long time, quickly came to greet her.
"My dear friend, how was the negotiation? How much was the offer?"
"10,000..."
"What! Those cheapskates."
Caesar gritted his teeth and glared angrily. The bid for 10,000 kilograms of active ore seemed to him to be ridiculously low.
"10,000 units of active ore."
"I was indeed right about them. They are all generous people."
Caesar smiled evilly, his whole face as bright as a blooming chrysanthemum.
"Are you going to take over the payment?"
While talking, Su Xiao took out the [Dramatic Change Solution] from the storage space.
"no problem."
After hearing what Caesar said, Su Xiao threw the [Dramatic Change Solution] to the other party and walked out of the back alley.
If Caesar cannot handle the subsequent transaction, it means that the human race is not sincere in the transaction. At that time, the most they will lose is a sum of money for materials. It is absolutely impossible for the other party to take away the [Dramatic Change Solution] by force.
Su Xiao didn't plan to stay in Liberty City for too long. He stopped in the deserted back street, and Dorothy, who was following him diagonally behind him, also stopped.
"This thing is for your use temporarily."
Su Xiao took out the [Amulet Gloves] and threw the bone-made gloves to Dorothy. This was a weapon Su Xiao obtained in the Dark Star world and developed by the Kodo School.
In addition to [Amulet Gloves], Su Xiao also took out many talismans, such as "Strength·Amulet", "Defense·Amulet", "Howl·Amulet", "Pride·Amulet", "Blade Girl·Amulet", "Silver's Talisman"
"Heart·Amulet" and so on, a total of 10 talismans, which can be freely matched through "Silver Heart·Amulet".
"Silver Heart·Amulet: After activating the effect of this amulet, the remaining four amulets loaded on the amulet gloves will all be activated, and different abilities will be combined according to different characteristics (for example: Metal + Blade Girl + Strength + Pride =
Killing Angel, this talisman can only be used once a day, and the duration of the ability after use will be determined by the characteristics of the four talismans it resonates with)."
Su Xiao left behind [Amulet Gloves], originally intending to use this thing to deal with the minions blocking the way.
Later, he discovered that he could never meet the kind of minions who came up to provoke without thinking. Even if they were not strong, those minions were not without intelligence. They had their own way of survival. After meeting Su Xiao, they would hide if they could.
Hide. If you can't hide, just smile, nod, and walk away in a hurry.
"This is me..."
Su Xiao was just about to say that this was the 'toy' he had reserved. Then he thought about it and said it was inappropriate. He changed his words and said:
"This is a weapon inherited from my family, and I will leave it to you to use from now on."
"Can I...can I?"
Dorothy held the [talisman gloves] in both hands instead, feeling a little moved in her heart.
"Of course, I'm optimistic about you. Even if your opponent is the Xin clan, you will be the winner in the end."
After saying that, Su Xiao patted Dorothy on the shoulder to show encouragement.
"Sir Baiye, I didn't expect you to care about me so much. Otherwise, you and I can go find the Xin clan together. We will destroy them together. After that, I will wholeheartedly be your little henchman. This will be more efficient."
Dorothy looked moved and expected at the same time. Seeing this, Baha almost burst into laughter. Although Dorothy was a loser, she was very clever. She lost her mother when she was young and refused to be raised by her own father.
, hugged an old woman's lap in Liberty City, and made a living by cheating with other accomplices. This kind of childhood experience made Dorothy impossible not to be clever.
"Get out of my sight within 10 seconds."
Su Xiao took out her pocket watch and started timing. Seeing this, Dorothy ran away quickly.
After Dorothy left, Su Xiao sat on the steps on the back street. Ten minutes later, footsteps came out of the alley opposite. It was dark inside, and a figure could be vaguely seen.
"Are you the one who hired me to kill my legitimate son?"
An old voice came from the darkness of the alley. The person who came was the leader of the Xin clan. He was standing in the darkness, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
"..."
Su Xiao lit a cigarette. The reason why the leader of the Xin clan came was because he contacted the Xin clan through the slave merchant Azba and entrusted them to kill someone. That person was Xin Yugo.
There is information that Xin Yugo is the youngest son of the leader of the Xin clan. Even so, Xin Yugo is over 40 years old.
After the Xin clan learned that someone hired them to assassinate one of their own clansmen, they immediately came to visit them. This time, Su Xiao felt that she was being targeted not long after arriving in Liberty City.
Now the leader of the Xin clan appeared in person. It was most likely the person who had followed Su Xiao before. He felt that he could not confront Su Xiao, so he contacted the strongest person in the clan.
The leader of the Xin clan is named Xin Di Zong. In the past, more people called him Xin Gui. It is said that when he was young, after entering a fighting state, he was like an evil ghost that wanted to bite people. After marrying a wife and having children, his behavior became smoother.
