Section 256 Prodigals

"This company can't just be lost to a prodigal like Thomas. A few minutes later, someone spoke. Everyone knows very well that even if it is unpredictable in the future, at least for now, it is a real cornucopia.

"That company doesn't belong to Thomas," someone reminded. "He's just the president, he's an old man. Thomas is not worth mentioning, as long as the old man says a word, he can completely change the person to control the company. Do you have what it takes to get a stake in it from the old manβ€”while he's still alive?"

"Yes, but that company isn't entirely old man's. It has another shareholder. ”

"Those Orientals?"

"Those Chinese. I've met once, and it's a group of ...... I'm afraid people who don't have much knowledge. And it seems that they don't particularly care about the details of the company's operations. In fact, it's almost the same on our side. Almost. ”

Several people looked at each other.

"But they had a good relationship with Thomas and seemed to be friends. Thomas probably told them about the situation a long time ago......" someone said hesitantly.

"If I had known about this, I would have found a way to meddle in the company's operations anyway, at least by arranging for a few of my own people to go in. Someone said with a smile. "Lest you be cheated and know nothing. With so much money, deducting a little bit is a huge loss. ”

"Isn't there a vice president, someone over there?"

"That shouldn't have anything to do with them, Thomas didn't know where to find it. And it wasn't a formal appointment, Thomas was just the president and didn't have the authority to make that level of appointment. The board of directors has that power...... Then again, the board of directors hasn't even had a meeting since the company was founded. I think it's a valuable opportunity. ”

"What kind of opportunity?"

"Money will slip out of the hands of those who don't deserve it. The one who spoke spread out his hand and made a gesture of helplessness. "I remember a poem that said that. Because they don't understand the true value of money. At this time...... I remember it's almost the Chinese New Year, isn't it?"

"What's wrong with New Year?"

"There's a boat over there, a luxury cruise ship, and the owner's company is my friend. I remember there was an event going on over there for Chinese New Year...... That is, a luxury tour to the sea in the New Year. Because he knew that there were people in our family in China, he gave me a gift coupon. ”

"There's a casino on that boat. Seeing that the others were still confused, the one who spoke finally pointed out the key. "A real casino, the kind with very well equipped facilities. ”

……

Dumb opened his mouth in disgust and spit out the traverser badge.

Although it looks like a drooling dog, it has an unexpectedly clean mouth. At least Lu Wu received something from its mouth more than once, but every time the thing was clean and clean, and there was no saliva.

"Am I really going?" Lu Wu couldn't help but ask.

"We have to go, mate! The master replied through the headset. "You can't hope that if you have an accident, the earth will be destroyed with you. ”

Two people have been together long enough that they both already know each other's way of thinking. Lu Wu is not the type of person who "I don't care if it floods after I die". In fact, at least judging from the attitude shown by the master, he felt that Lu Wu was a little too ...... That's a little more concerned about others.

"Earth Destruction......" Lu Wu repeated this sentence again, and then pinned the badge to himself.

As far as he knew, the speed of time between the two worlds had been reversed. In other words, time passes faster on Earth than it does over there. It's not clear what the reason for this trend is, but it means he has limited time.

If he goes to Vage, it means that he will disappear from prison for a while.

By the way, due to the injury caused by the previous fight, although it was a trivial injury, it could not be without punishment. Lu Wu's punishment was to be locked up in this solitary cell.

As mentioned earlier, this is by no means a preferential treatment. In fact, a day or two of them may be considered a preferential treatment, and you can deal with it for three days or four days, but for more than five days, it will become a kind of torture, and with time, this torture will become torture. Because human beings are, according to scientists, social creatures. Human beings have a natural need to obtain information from the outside world. If the information is insufficient, it is actually against human nature and is extremely painful.

If there were guests in the other single cells on the side (as I mentioned before, this was an aisle, and there were single cells on both sides, but now there was only Lu Wu alone), then even one person could chat. But now in this situation, when there is only one person, the harm to people is actually very great. Both history books and modern scientific research are superficial, and prisoners who have been imprisoned for a long time and lack a person to communicate with have almost all kinds of psychological problems. In fact, let alone the long-term, many people can't even stand the "short-term".

"Don't worry, Zhu Hua is here, if something goes wrong, she will be responsible for covering it up. ”

"Really...... Is that okay?"

"Rest assured, that Stygian can be trusted...... For the time being, yes. The master said vaguely, activating the crossing badge.

The incredible magic power hidden in the badge worked violently, engulfing Lu Wu and a small part of the space around him in an instant. If it was an ordinary person present, he would probably see Lu Wu's body disappear violently, and then there was an inexplicable gust of wind blowing - it was because the air around Lu Wu was originally transferred together, and the air from other places automatically rushed in to replenish it.

The scene in front of me changed for a moment. Because he has experienced enough crossings, Lu Wu has become more adaptable. It was only a brief moment before he was sure he was back inside the Floating Fortress again.

A floating fortress that nominally belongs to him. Of course, as for whether it actually belongs to him now...... That's a different story.

"Master, I still think it's ......"

"We need the help of the Warlock," the master said firmly. "And I assure you, they're definitely interested in that artifact. Coupled with the power to strike at the Moon Warlocks by the way, I'm sure the Moon Warlocks won't leave it alone. ”

"But we ......"

"Partner, you could die. The master said in a cold voice. "Of course, I hope it was a miscalculation on my part, but remember what I told you before. Countless determined, brave, and wise souls have challenged the fate set by the warlocks, but none of them have succeeded. Is it true that none of them have found the hand behind it and been given the opportunity to challenge it? Yes, we have made a lot of preparations, and we seem to have the advantage. But in any case, it was still an unpredictable battle. You know, partner, you are not going to attack one person, but a predestined fate. Isn't there a poem that says that with a violent blow of fate, even the most powerful people are smashed to pieces. ”

"And we, partners, at least make sure that even if you die, you can do something to avoid the destruction of the planet. Of course, you can only do your best. ”

This sentence succeeded, because immediately he stopped talking.

"Partner, time is precious, we need to make sure the badge is fully charged and go back as soon as it is complete. ”

……

Lu Wu's figure disappeared for a short while, about a dozen seconds. Zhu Hua appeared at the door of the room. She stared at the place where Lu Wu had disappeared, and didn't move her gaze for a long time.

There were clear traces of magic in the air, traces of the magic of the First Law. Although she doesn't have the magic of the First Law, the scars themselves are something that every warlock can distinguish. In fact, perhaps magic is divided into seven laws, and the focus is on the residue left behind.

It's funny...... However, everything that has developed is reasonable. It's no wonder, that kind of artifact...... No matter how reserved the Radiant Moon Warlock is, he can't wait to get his hands on it.

The only problem is this Lu Wu...... Earthlings, the governors chosen by the Radiant Moon faction, the person in charge of a special experimental mission sent to Earth (of course, even if he is in charge, he is undoubtedly the nominal leader), and the collaborators of Kecha Goat (or Kecha Goat's pawns). It doesn't matter if these identities are taken out individually, but when they are combined, they make people feel interested.

This time when he went back, he undoubtedly went to ask for reinforcements. But it's not just about reinforcements.

Speaking of which, she was a little curious, what could Kecha Goat use this news to get in exchange for from the Radiant Moon Warlocks?

Thinking of the Radiant Moon Warlock, she instinctively thought of the Supreme Star. That old woman whose whole body has undergone many modifications, has changed many organs, and can no longer be counted as a "human" from a certain point of view. You know, the Stygian Warlocks always use this to taunt the Archon of the Radiant Moon behind their backs. Of course, this kind of mockery behind it, according to the earth, is more like the distant barking of a ruined dog.

But, remembering that time of that meeting, remembering the old woman's body wrapped around her body, the intense and almost unbearable magic residue, even though it was a world away at this moment, I still felt a bug with bristles and sharp claws crawling around my back.

There's no way to fight against that kind of being. It can even be said that as long as you stand in front of you, without having to use your hands and not even fight, the Supreme Star is enough to make those weaker warlocks lose the idea of fighting. In fact, don't talk about thoughts, warlocks who lack strength will probably be unable to control the nausea in their chest and abdomen at a glance, and they will be incapacitated directly due to vomiting. This is the absolute difference between the weak and the strong.

If one day there is a level of power – although theoretically, by virtue of "devouring", anyone can reach that state. But idiots can also understand that it is really only a theoretical thing, just like every warlock can theoretically become a chief consul - such extravagant hopes and fantasies alone are enough to make people feel their whole body tremble slightly.

If you can get to that level...... Able to make those who look down on themselves, who have trampled themselves under their feet, thrown into the mire, thrown into the abyss...... Those disgusting minions and idiots all trample and crush ...... Although this is just a fantasy, the grievances, pains, and anguish in my heart seem to disappear with the fantasy scene.

Zhu Hua closed her eyes and repeated the oath she had made to herself again. When she opened her eyes again, all hesitation and vacillation in them were gone.

She already had her first question, a question that Lu Wu had to answer and keep secret.
