So he didn't speak, waiting for the other party's next reaction.

The man continued, "I guess you've tried to break into the villa. But I'm sorry to tell you one piece of news - you don't live long, you're poisoned. Now you have 20 seconds to get out of hiding, and I can give you the antidote......"

But his voice was interrupted suddenly, and a female voice interjected. It seems that the two are not in the same place - one near the outer wall and the other inside the villa. Right now, the woman forcibly inserted into the man's communication channel.

First, I heard her slightly annoyed voice: "...... Idiot, what antidote? You think it's a martial arts novel? ”

Then she changed her tone, and her voice was soft, but it sounded slightly meaningful: "I have something to tell you - tonight in the courtyard of this villa, there are my works everywhere." Maybe you've noticed moss growing on the walls – but that doesn't matter. What matters is the spores they emit. Right now, your body is full of the spores, probably rooted in your lungs. They can sprout at any time if I want to. Maybe you've heard of something called Cordyceps......"

It's a pity that this one didn't finish his sentence. The last thing I heard was Sun Jingtang's voice: "You have to die here today." ”

The three of them took turns to say the words, just like a stage watching the flowers.

A woman should be a capable person in the villa, and the last one is Sun Jingtang. Thinking about it, that guy was scared by himself, and now he has some confidence, and he doesn't want to talk about reconciliation or anything like that, but is bent on putting himself to death.

Li Zhen frowned slightly and tried to exhale deeply.

But perhaps it was the other party's bluff. Maybe it wasn't the thing yet, and he didn't feel anything wrong.

So he hesitated for a moment.

Also hesitant are the people in the house. This hesitation stems from a dispute between two people.

Sun Jingtang lowered his voice—as if that way he wouldn't be heard by anyone outside—and shouted, "Kill him for me now!" ”

But Bai Xiaodangan sat on the sofa and hooked his honey-colored lips: "Kill? How to kill? Before I could speak, I was interrupted by you—my abilities would only be activated within twenty meters of me. And I could only sense it when he touched the things on the outer wall, who knows how many spores he had inhaled and where he was now? I wanted you to have a good talk with him - who knew you were so stupid! ”

Sun Jingtang was furious: "I spend a million gold yuan every year to invite you!" Now you're saying you can't kill him?! ”

Bai Xiaodang smiled coldly: "Too expensive? So you can cancel the contract? In a battle between capable people, who can say that they are sure that they can kill the other? Speaking of which, people like you don't understand—"

Sun Jingtang glared at her fiercely for a while—the face that usually made him horny when he saw it looked extremely hateful at this time, if it weren't for the fact that his own net worth and life depended on her, he really didn't dare to guarantee that he would not grab the copper paperweight on the table and smash it over.

But in the end, he sat back in his chair and kicked the desk in front of him a few more times.

This group of ......

After the security captain's confident first line of defense was broken, Sun Jingtang was completely panicked. So he once tried to call the local secret service department, the Teng Anhui who he thought was very interesting. His original intention was to hope that the other party would intervene. Even if Li Zhen is wanted now, he will have some scruples about them, right?

However, the other party's reply turned out to be-

"Mr. Sun, I thought we had reached a consensus before - this matter. The Secret Service will never be involved. ”

Sun Jingtang realized it in an instant...... I was tricked from the very beginning.

That's what it meant.

Originally, the person from the southern base and Teng Anhui's original intention was......

They won't interfere with Li Zhen to kill himself?!

From full of self-confidence to "betrayal of relatives". This extremely strong gap and the threat of death almost drove him crazy. But then the Bai Xiaodang in front of her said that she had found Li Zhen's whereabouts. And the other party inhaled her spores, and life and death were in her thoughts.

Sun Jingtang felt that this was the only good news he had heard in the past few days, so he said that sentence as if venting.

But now it's the same result.

He stared at the slender figure on the couch. After a long time, he held back another sentence: "You deliberately hurt me?" Right!? ”

Bai Xiaodang smiled slightly: "I'm doing something." You're talking. Why did I hurt you? ”

Sun Jingtang slapped the table: "He has been lurking in the courtyard just now and has not moved-he must be waiting for me to negotiate with him!" Negotiation! After negotiating, I can give him what he wants. I'm not going to die! You deliberately said that you were sure that I was sure to provoke him, didn't you!? ”

Bai Xiaodang seemed to have heard something funny, and turned his face to look at him: "You are a person...... How do you say hello? Do you think he's waiting for you to negotiate? Scold...... I told you. He said you have 59 hours left, that's 59 hours left. I've seen a lot of these kinds of people - all of them are arrogant and will never break their promises. ”

"Of course people like you can't understand it, and I can't understand it either. But I can tell you that he was just waiting for the remaining 20 hours to pass. ”

But Sun Jingtang seems to have fallen into a state of paranoia. He stared at Bai Xiaodang with reddened eyes: "What's in it for you to hurt me?!" I'm dead, you're going to have three knives and six holes!! ”

Bai Xiaodang stood up and smiled coldly: "You have to think like this-you can." The upside is ...... He's here to kill you. What does it have to do with me? To be honest, I thought that guy was pretty cool. As for the three knives and six holes...... Mr. Sun, didn't you take a good look at the agreement? ”

"If the employer dies due to force majeure, the defender is exempt from liability. What is force majeure? Earthquakes, floods, tsunamis – but we are fast winds. We have another criterion of our own - for a B-level capable person like me, the king level is also considered force majeure. Do you think your life is worth much? Scold...... In the eyes of many people, our lives are worth more than you - you can survive for decades if you eat a lot of money, but people like me ...... My life. It was bought at the cost of many other people's lives. ”

Bai Xiaodang looked at the stunned Sun Jingtang: "In your place, I earn a million a year for the organization." As long as I live, I can exchange tens of millions for the organization in ten years - who is more valuable than our lives? Am I going to be so stupid to let a king kill myself for you? ”

Sun Jingtang raised his hand and pointed at her: "You, you ......"

"So tonight is a good opportunity, Sun Jingtang." Bai Xiaodang curled the corners of his mouth, "You died at the hands of Li Zhen, and I don't need to look at your ugly face from now on." ”

A rush of blood rushed to his head, and Sun Jingtang raised his hand to grab the pistol that had been resting on the table.

Bai Xiaodang's body immediately shook, hid behind the sofa, and said coldly: "Sun Jingtang, do you think only Li Zhen has inhaled those spores?" I advise you to calm down - you have a life to live. I'm not going to kill you. But if you're looking for death now......"

Her voice just fell. Outside the house, there was a sudden sound of gunfire like bursting beans and a muffled explosion.

The two people in the study realized that it was the defenders of the outer wall who had fought Li Zhen in the courtyard.

The door was suddenly knocked open, and Sun Siwen rushed in with a gust of wind: "Father, there is a fight outside!" ”

But then he saw Sun Jingtang aiming his gun. Hurriedly raised his hand: "...... It's me! What are you doing here? ”

glanced at Bai Xiaodang behind the sofa again: "Are you still arguing at this time?" ”

Sun Jingtang shouted angrily: "Stay away from that woman!" She's going to kill us both! You go talk to the guy out there now. Let's talk to him! ”

Bai Xiaodang let out a sneer. The soles of his feet kicked on the ground and jumped out of the door. Sun Jingtang glared and gripped the handle of the gun vigorously, but the target had long since disappeared. He slapped the gun on the table in annoyance. grabbed the communicator on the side again: "Talk to him, just say I want to talk to him!" ”

But there was a murmur on the other end.

In fact, just five seconds ago, the owner of the communicator had just had his neck broken by Li Zhen.

Sun Jingtang sat on the chair in a daze, and a deep sense of despair arose in his heart.

But it seems that the heavens are not going to let him go like this.

The lights in the study suddenly flickered and went out. Father and son jumped to their feet, believing that the enemy had cut off the power supply.

But then they realized that something was wrong.

Because not only was the light extinguished, but even the communicator in his hand was silent in an instant. It's like a toy made of plastic.

Sun Jingtang subconsciously looked at the desk - there should have been an electronic clock there.

But now even the electronic clock has become a dead thing, and it is also plunged into deep darkness.

This thing...... It is battery-powered.

What's going on?

There was a deathly silence in the room, save for the heavy gasps of father and son. It was Sun Siwen who reacted first, groping for his father's hand: "We can go underground first-go to the refuge room to hide, that door can hold out for a while, maybe things will take a turn for the better?" We also have Miss Bai......"

But Sun Jingtang didn't want to tell his son that the woman actually had a ghost in mind. He just sighed in despair and let him take his hand and stumble down the hallway. Outside the house, gunshots and explosions could be heard, but they were noticeably thinning. Bursts of faint screams were like a ghost cry, which made Sun Jingtang's body burst into layers of cold sweat.

Evacuation Room......

It's what he built for himself. But he didn't think the house was still useful. Because he felt he had to give himself a little hope, even if it only lasted a few minutes.

The huge villa is already in chaos. The house was staffed by a large number of servants, who had retreated to their rooms when the guns had been fired in unison—for the master had already spoken, and the last few days might not have been peaceful, and robbers would have the idea of attacking them.

But the servants did not think of what kind of robber could fight outside for so long - it didn't seem to be a robber, more like an army!

Right now, the villa is suddenly plunged into darkness, and everyone feels that a great disaster is coming. Therefore, the father and son had just gone downstairs when they heard panicked shouts. People ran in the dark, some trying to find their owners to find out what was going on, while others silently gathered up the expensive equipment in the house, intending to flee for their lives if the worst happened.

These people probably didn't expect that Sun Jingtang and Sun Siwen were silently mixing in the crowd and trying to escape to the basement.

So the father and son were naturally dispersed by the chaotic crowd.

The panic that permeated the crowd inexplicably made Sun Jingtang, who was like ashes, have a trace of desire to survive. He gritted his teeth, and instead of trying to find Sun Siwen's whereabouts again, he followed the wall all the way to the basement.

The son was right. Just hide in......

That thing is nuclear bomb proof! No matter how great his Li Zhen's skills are, he is not as powerful as a nuclear bomb!

But even that hope was dashed a few minutes later. His fears became a reality.

Although the power system of the vault is completely independent, it is ......

The power is out too!!

He did find a metal door. All he had to do was enter the password and the fingerprint scan of his pupil print, and he could open the door and enter the tunnel. At the end of the tunnel was still an alloy door - three meters thick, and it was hard for anything to destroy it. Behind that door was a safe and comfortable shelter with enough food to survive for three years, where he could call for help.

However...... He couldn't enter a password, let alone a scan of his pupils or fingerprints.

The electronic display next to the door was dead black, and only the fluorescent materials around it were faintly lit.

Finished.

Sun Jingtang leaned weakly against the wall and slowly slid down.

And just outside the villa, Li Zhen jumped wild and high, his wings stretched violently behind his back, avoiding the two rockets from the side. The three soldiers below him raised their assault rifles and tried to shoot him down in the air, but Li Zhen's figure suddenly became an afterimage - they only felt a cool breeze blowing on the back of their necks, and they lost consciousness forever.

It was the last line of defense guarding the main entrance of the villa - a few men were approaching in the distance with guns. However, those people were sluggish and cringe, and they had clearly lost their fighting spirit.

So Li Zhen stood in front of them and shouted: "If you want to die, come, if you don't want to die, get out!" ”

This roar became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The remnants only hesitated for a second, then immediately threw down their guns and fled without looking back.

Li Zhen looked at them in silence. It wasn't until the last person disappeared from sight that he let go of his fist.

The palm of the hand had been punctured by the fingernails, and blood was running down the fingers. He really didn't know what kind of perseverance he relied on to suppress the murderous intent, and suppress the murderous intent that wanted to tear all the humans in front of him in two.

Then he took a deep breath, looked at the corpses on the ground, and looked at the sky.

It's 3:35 a.m., and yet......

It's like daylight.

The aurora has appeared again. (To be continued.) )
