Chapter 16: Simon's Troubles
Simon learned from various sources that a group of so-called "invaders" have inexplicably appeared in this world recently, and these invaders are all beyond ordinary people, and even Zhi Brain has paid a great price in order to eliminate them.
When he first heard the news, he scoffed at the veracity of the news.
Unlike other dungeon bosses, he was banished from the ground, and he knew that the Blue Hole Brain was terrible and huge, and anyone or force who dared to oppose the Brain would not end well in the end.
Although the dungeon clamored to counterattack the ground and retake the city, Simon never had any hope for this.
As an exile, Simon was once a city executive in an above-ground city, to be precise, a very capable and genetically brilliant man.
From a very young age, he was able to perceive people's hearts and assess the situation, so he climbed all the way up and became the manager of the city.
But he doesn't like the system of the above-ground city, he yearns for the kind of life in the dungeon, which controls the life and death of others, tramples others under their feet, and the stars and moons.
So he tried to communicate with the bosses of the underground world, and provided them with some necessary conveniences, such as opening the door for the spies they sent to the surface, such as secretly transporting the technical data on the surface to the underground.
Through these actions, Simon has gained the support of many people in the dungeon, and he remotely manipulates his dungeon men, while secretly cultivating his own branches in the city above ground, pulling them into the water together, and controlling their handles for later use.
At the age of twenty-four, when the time came, Simon voluntarily gave up his position, jumped into the sewers, and became an underground city citizen.
After more than ten years of operation, he became the only boss in St. Flocans who can eat both above and below ground.
His network of connections spread all over the ground and underground, and with this network, he controlled the most information in the city, and became a local snake in St. Flocans.
With his wisdom and ability, he gradually controlled the economy of the dungeon, except for the dungeon armed organization in the south, and the Dragon and Tiger Gangs in the north, he is already the person with the highest voice in this dungeon.
This is also the reason why he opposes the counterattack on the Blue Hole Brain, those turtles born from the ground don't know how powerful the Blue Hole Brain is, they are ruthless people who can't use strategy and resourcefulness to match!
However, just an hour after he received the news of the "intruder", a man with a giant sword cut down more than 100 of his younger brothers on East Street!
Reality slapped him in the face hard.
The population of the dungeon is not large, and the loss of more than a hundred of his men at one time is a heavy blow to Simon.
After watching the battle video recorded by his subordinates, Simon, who faced reality, couldn't help but start to re-examine the news from the ground and re-examine those so-called super-capable "invaders".
After weighing the pros and cons, Simon offered to reconcile with the greatsword man.
After a brief temptation, Simon offered to provide him with informational support, and in exchange, he asked the Greatsword Man to help him destroy the armed groups north of the city.
The Greatsword Man had just left in the morning, and soon a man was making trouble in his biggest bar, the Red Light Bar.
Hans, the big man who was in charge of the bar, was not the best man under him, but he had beaten Hans with a slender arm and knocked him down.
He immediately identified the other party as a second "intruder".
In order to prevent the recurrence of the previous loss of hundreds of younger brothers, he had to run away in person and communicate with the other party.
During the exchange, Simon could clearly feel that this "intruder" was not the same as the "intruder" with a giant sword in front of him.
This "invader" didn't seem to like killing very much, so he put out the idea of letting the other party go to exterminate the Dragon and Tiger Society gangsters in the south, and instead arranged a mission for the other party to take risks on the ground.
The so-called task of stealing information is actually a mission to die, and the information is stored in the database of the brain, which belongs to a very confidential file, and if you want to steal it, it will definitely trigger the alarm of the brain and trigger the pursuit of the brain.
Simon's original intention was to borrow a knife to kill people and get rid of this trouble.
However, as soon as the second intruder left, the greatsword man returned, and he single-handedly wiped out all the members of the armed group in the north of the city, and he didn't know where to find out about the second intruder.
Under the coercion of the Greatsword Man, Simon had to provide the information of the second intruder to the Greatsword Man, and arranged for the Greatsword Man to go to the ground.
Even if Simon can't see the rest of the matter, he can guess that looking at the momentum of the giant sword man, he should be going to fight to the death with the other party. When the time comes, if the greatsword man wins, it's fine, if he loses, then the second intruder may come back to settle the score.
Simon exhaled the smoke from his mouth, and in the smoke, he secretly made up his mind.
During this period of time, he hid in this secret base, no matter how powerful the other party was, it was impossible for him to pull himself out of the secret room two hundred meters underground from the vast sea of people in the dungeon.
As long as you escape this catastrophe, plus the armed organizations in the north of the city are completely wiped out, and you seize the opportunity yourself, it is possible to dominate the dungeon of St. Flocanus!
With this ambition, Simon extinguished his cigarette in an ashtray.
It was as if he could already see that the golden throne of the King of the Underworld was already in front of him, and he could reach it with just one more step forward.
"Ding"
A bell rang from the door.
Simon pressed a button next to the couch, and a shot instantly appeared on the screen across from him.
A man in black with short hair was standing outside the door, waiting for him to open the door, this man in black was the only outsider who knew the whereabouts of Simon and the mistress in his room, and was also a dead man of Simon, who was responsible for transporting him daily items and delivering news.
Simon pressed another button before the door opened.
The short-haired man in black walked in.
"Didn't you say don't just come to me? What happened? Simon said impatiently.
The short-haired man in black didn't speak, just lowered his head and moved a stool to sit opposite Simon.
Simon suddenly felt that something was wrong, this short-haired man in black was the only one who knew that he lived here, and he was sure that this person could not betray him, but in the hands of those powerful invaders, anything could happen.
"Mr. Simon, it's the first time we meet, please advise, you can call me Xu Youyou." The short-haired man in black raised his head again, as if he had changed his face.
Simon's eyes narrowed, and he soon realized that there was an intruder sitting across from him, and he was not a good person!
But after all, he was a person who had seen strong winds and waves, so he quickly calmed down, quickly accepted the fact that the other party was able to change his face, and reached out to shake hands with the other party.
"Hello, Mr. Xu, why did you go deep underground to find me?" Simon said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
A professional smile appeared on Xu You's face, and he sat on the stool in an elegant manner, and then said in a tone of business partner negotiation:
"That's right, Mr. Simon."
"My friend, the one I came into contact with you yesterday at the Red Light Bar, needs some help from you right now."
"The two of us completed the task you commissioned earlier, and stole the designated document on the ground. Since this information is very difficult to steal, and the importance of this information is also very high, we expect you to pay an additional price before we can give this information to you. ”
Simon said with a normal face, "What price do you want me to offer?" ”
"A legitimate, non-greasy, non-accidental, emergency express high-speed rail ticket to the city of Rabiras." Xu Zhuo summed up his needs in short and effective words.
Simon pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and then said:
"You know, there have been some unexpected things in the world recently, and the supervision of Zhi Brain in this regard is very strict, and it is already difficult to be legal, and if you want to have no accidents, no one can guarantee this, even if it is Blue Hole's own son."
"Hahahaha." Xu Youliang suddenly laughed, "Mr. Simon, you don't seem to have figured out what I mean. ”
Xu Youyou's body sat up straight, supporting the wooden table in front of him with both hands, and slowly leaned towards Simon, and said in a hard tone very close to Simon:
"I'm not asking you, it's a request, an order to be precise!"
"Orders?"
Simon slapped the table, then leaned back, reclining on the sofa, and looked Xu Excellent up and down:
"If you think that if you control my life and death, you can control everything about me, maybe you are thinking too simply. My heart is connected to the largest powder magazine in the dungeon, and if I die, a third of the entire city of St. Floros will be blown to ruins, and I don't think you have the ability to escape from such an explosion. ”
Xu Youyou pretended to have a solemn expression, nodded and said, "Well, that's right, it's located in the center of the underground city, the powder magazine under the red light bar, right?" You may be exaggerating, the gunpowder there is very powerful, but at most it can blow up a fifth of the city of St. Flocans into ruins. ”
"You know, you invaders are powerful, I've heard of this." Simon was unmoved, "I don't want to be your enemy, I take my Yangguan Road, you take your single-plank bridge, we have no conflict of interest, you don't have to hold on to me, there are other bigwigs in the dungeon, they are much better than me." ”
