Chapter 173: The Fire of St. Anthony

"Why does everyone let me watch the news today?!" Cang Hao said a little impatiently: "With so much news all day long, how do I know which one to watch and which not to watch?!"

"Boss, you're really right, this is an era of information explosion, do you know, some people have counted, today a Times has more content than an Englishman in the eighteenth century has experienced in his life. ”

"What are you trying to illustrate?"

"In an age like this, it's sad if you don't understand the value of screening information!"

"What nonsense!" Cang Hao snatched Huang Binhuan's mobile phone: "Hurry up and tell me what happened!"

Cang Hao was looking at his phone, Huang Binhuan was explaining on the side, and finally Cang Hao was also shocked by this news.

Some time ago, a strange disease suddenly appeared in some places in the suburbs, which did not attract attention at first, and at the same time as Cang Hao went to Pripyat, the disease began to worsen.

So far, there have been more than 40 infected people, and this morning, three infected people unfortunately passed away.

All those who have this disease are covered in scabs, and when they die, their limbs fall off their bodies.

Considering the public sentiment, there are no pictures in the media reports, but only from the text description, you can feel the horror of this strange disease.

Guangsha officials mobilized the best medical experts in the province for consultation, but no one could say what was going on with the disease.

Some people thought it was an infectious disease, but people who had been in contact with these patients before did not get sick, and others thought it was poisoning, but there was no way to find the source of the poisoning.

"It's really terrifying...... Cang Hao frowned slightly: "Anyway, this timing of the onset is a bit intriguing......

Huang Bin paused for a moment: "Boss, are you saying this is a biochemical attack?"

Cang Hao didn't answer, but went to the command center to find the ink master, at this time the ink master was busy, writing a large section of program code, anyway, Cang Hao didn't know what it was for.

Master Mo is proficient in medicine, and Pang Keer's Alice in Wonderland Syndrome was cured by Master Mo, and Cang Hao wanted to know Master Mo's opinion: "Look at this." ”

"Is this ......" Mo Shi looked at this report carefully, and after a long time, he slowly shook his head: "This disease should be decades old...... No, probably for hundreds of years, no outbreaks have been recorded. ”

"The disease that has disappeared?" Cang Hao was even more curious: "What kind of disease is it?"

"Let's let Li Chong take a look. Mo Shi said: "I don't dare to diagnose it alone. ”

The ink master called Li Chong over, and Li Chong had just seen the news, and after carefully analyzing it, he asked the ink master: "What do you think?"

"I was about to ask you. The ink master pursed his lips: "You are an expert in biological and chemical weapons." ”

Li Chong said directly: "I think it's the fire of St. Anthony." ”

"I see it that way, too. The ink master nodded thoughtfully: "And it's still gangrene." ”

Cang Hao was confused: "Can you say something that I can understand?"

At the same time.

Gross and the others had secretly returned to Guangsha, but they had changed their identities and failed to attract attention.

Gross has no doubt that his true identity has been exposed, and the Huaxia country must take some measures against him, and he must be more vigilant.

Immediately after checking into the hotel, Gross made a video call and reported to Schwartz: "The trip to Pripyat went well, we bought a sonic weapon from Aliyev, which is ready to be deployed. However, Aliyev died, he was killed by a car bomb, and it is not known who did it. ”

"Could it have something to do with us?"

"It's hard to say. Gross shook his head slowly: "The important thing is that the person who blew up Aliyev was aimed at our Diamond Alliance, fortunately they don't know enough about us. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"He should have done it before I got my weapons, not planting the bomb when I was ready to leave, indicating that he didn't know anything about our operations. ”

"I hope it has nothing to do with us, Aliyev's business is too dangerous, and it's normal for people to be killed. After a pause, Schwartz continued: "At the moment we are very passive, I don't want more opponents, although the last operation was very successful, we grabbed objective profits from the stock market of country E, but we ignored a very important factor, and that is the reaction of the Chinese country. After all, the target of the spear of Ares is in China, and the Chinese officials must be very angry about it, and this time, Huaxia has introduced a policy to strengthen the origin of diamonds, which is actually aimed at us. ”

"I understand. Gross nodded helplessly: "Originally, we thought that we could kill two birds with one stone, destroy Canghao's command and control system, and make money in the stock market at the same time." But at the moment, it is difficult for our blood diamonds to enter China again, and I am afraid that they will have a more stringent policy in the future. ”

"What's more, we were supposed to put Cang Hao in trouble, but it was Cang Hao who successfully used our strategy. This person can't become stronger, he must maintain his strength within the range we can control......" After a pause, Schwartz coldly reminded: "You know what to do!"

"I'll give the weapon to the Oni King. Gross nodded and asked, "What should I do next?"

"Forgive for now. Schwartz sighed lightly: "According to the original plan, we can also use Xintai Mining to drag down Canghao, but I didn't expect the company's assets to be frozen." In that case, I consulted with the council and could adjust our original plan. ”

"How?"

"Although the company's assets are frozen, it has an impact on us and Canghao, which means that the investment in this company is also frozen. Cang Hao should very much want to use this company to make money, after all, the market prospect of sapphire is very promising. After a pause, Schwartz continued: "Xintai Mining is still our valuable bargaining chip, which can be exchanged with Canghao if necessary. ”

Gross didn't understand: "Exchange what?"

"You get the things in place first. Schwartz did not reply, and after throwing this sentence, the communication was interrupted.

Gross was stunned for a moment, then tapped a few times on the keyboard and dialed a landline.

This phone was inside the Ghost King's lair, and after ringing twice, it was answered: "Who?"

"It's an iron ghost. Gross smiled, "I can hear your voice, let the black-faced ghost answer the phone." ”

The Iron Ghost was dumbfounded: "Are you ...... It's ......"

Gross repeated his words word for word: "Let the black-faced ghost answer the phone!"

The Iron Ghost handed the microphone to the Blackface, who roared impatiently, "Who are you?"

Gross's voice was calm: "It's me!"

"Gross?" the black-faced ghost froze, "How do you know about this call?"

After all, the Ghost King Party used to be the minions of the Diamond Alliance, and they were familiar with each other.

Gross smiled and said, "Don't forget what our relationship is, I want to find you, it's not that difficult!"

"What's the matter with you?" said the black-faced ghost impatiently, "The Ghost King Party will no longer accept any orders from the Diamond Alliance!"

"I already know this. Gross nodded slowly, "I'm not going to persuade you to change your mind. ”

"And what else do you do?"

"Listen, I know you're dealing with Cang Hao now, and it seems to be a bit of a headache. Gross smiled and shook his head: "I don't care what kind of grievances you have with Cang Hao, in short, if this situation continues, the Ghost King Party will definitely lose." ”

"Are you calling to ridicule me?" The black-faced ghost was furious: "Okay, congratulations, you have successfully me off! When I kill Cang Hao, I will destroy the Diamond Alliance, especially you Gross, I will cut off your flesh piece by piece!"

"I'm here to help you, and it's sad that you threaten me like this!"

"I don't need you to help!" As soon as he said this, the black-faced ghost felt that something was wrong, "Wait...... You said you wanted to help me?"

"I can provide you with a weapon, a sonic weapon, you know better than I do as a soldier what this thing is for. ”

"Why are you helping me?" said the black-faced ghost suspiciously, "No matter what you Diamond Alliance does, it's for profit, helping me can make you make enough money?"

"No, but ......" Gross said word by word, "I don't like Cang Hao, I need you to help me kill Cang Hao." ”

"Why do you think I'm your subordinate?" the black-faced ghost sneered, "Gross, if you want to use a commanding tone with me, you're just an errand runner in the Diamond Alliance!"

Gross was unimpressed by the black-faced ghost's attitude: "In this world, there are few people who can really live for themselves, and everyone has a master behind them, but many people don't want to admit it." ”

The black-faced ghost said without thinking: "Cang Hao is exceptional!"

"It seems that you still admire Cang Hao very much. Gross smiled and nodded: "That's right, I've always felt that Cang Hao lives for himself." ”

"Okay, now that I'm a little interested in your plan, why should I deal with Cang Hao?"

"Because he's getting in the way of us making money. Gross's answer was very simple: "Listen, you can think that I am using you, but you also have to think clearly, there is a life-and-death battle between you and Cang Hao." Cang Hao will kill you sooner or later, and you don't have any advantage over Cang Hao, Cang Hao has more and more men and equipment, and one of your men will die one less. Now that I'm offering you a weapon, maybe it can change the situation at some point, and you should be happy. ”

"Less nonsense!" said the black-faced ghost impatiently, "Where's the weapon?"

"Looks like you're interested in my plans. Gross nodded in satisfaction: "At this time in a week, you are waiting in front of this call, and I will tell you the way the weapons were transferred." ”

"Why not now?" Before Gross could reply, the black-faced man added, "Oh, I forgot, you don't have the authority to decide anything, you're just following the orders of the council." ”

The black-faced ghost was not wrong at all, why he wanted to transfer the siren song to the ghost king party a week later, this was a decision made by Schwartz, and Gross didn't know why.

So, after ending the call with the blackface, Gross reconnected to Schwartz's side: "I've made a deal with the blackface. ”

"Good. Schwartz's expression was calm: "If I'm not mistaken, the black-faced ghost should be furious and threaten to cut off your flesh piece by piece!"

Gross nodded indifferently: "That's right!"

"You see, after all this time, his temper hasn't changed at all. Schwartz shook his head regretfully: "So he can only be a mercenary in his life!"

"You have to learn to control your feelings in order to make great things, right?"

"That's right. Schwartz nodded affirmatively: "From now until the transfer of weapons, there is a week, and with this week, you have to do a very important thing." ”
