42. New Serial Quest (Change)
"The Emperor of Cards defeated Manhattan?"
Without even thinking about it, Abner knew that the news that had spread all over Manhattan was definitely the handiwork of Kim Ji.
And the purpose of Jin Ji is also obvious, that is, to make Abner, a strong man who can resist the king head-on, try to attract the hatred of the Hellfire Club, so as to stay out of the matter to the greatest extent.
Abner didn't feel anything wrong with Jin He's careful thinking, after all, from the moment he decided to cooperate with Jin He, Abner had already expected this situation.
Abner helps Kim resist the pressure from Hellfire, while Kim uses his power and influence to help Simon stabilize the situation in Manhattan, and the two are just using each other, and there is nothing to complain about.
These thoughts flashed quickly in his mind, and then he saw Abner smile slightly, and raised his left hand to the door: "This is not the place to talk, come in and talk!" ”
……
"I see!"
After a brief tidying up, Abner sat in the living room on the first floor and said lightly to Wesley, who was sitting in front of him.
Next to Abner sat Jill, who was looking at Wesley curiously.
Even Simmons, who was half-dead by a "frightened shock" from Semla, forced himself to drag his body and sit on the sofa next to him, understanding what happened.
The reason for this incident is not complicated, and Wesley also heard the rumors that the "Pai King" was seriously injured and left Manhattan.
Although he doubted the authenticity of this matter in his heart, Wesley couldn't help but drift his thoughts to Abner, whom he had met once.
The reason for this is simple.
Pai Huang is a rare top master in the world, and his prestige and achievements are all made by the head and bones he stepped on under his feet, and there are few who can fight with Pai Huang head-on, let alone defeat Pai Wang head-on.
But from the moment he heard the news, Abner couldn't help but think of the situation of holding a grenade in his hand and playing with the poor mutant vampire baron.
Somehow, Wesley searched for the location of the dormitory building in the school for the first time, and directly found the martial arts hall where Abner was.
When it comes to this, I have to complain, these guys in the dark world never seem to have the habit of walking through the door openly, even Wesley, who is a blade warrior......
Habitually climbed up the window, and climbed in from an empty room on the second floor, who knew that before he could take a few steps, he was sat on the bed and watched the bloody drama intently, and then he was almost cut in half by Semra.
He glanced at Wesley with a strange face, and when he looked straight at him, his swarthy face showed a hint of red, and he twisted his head awkwardly, pretending to look at the furnishings in the room......
"Pai Huang is indeed worthy of being a well-known top master, if it weren't for his carelessness this time, it would be difficult for me to kill him, but ......"
It wasn't himself who almost lost his life, and Abner naturally didn't hold on to these little things, but quickly changed the topic, briefly explained the reason to Wesley, and raised his right hand like a dried corpse to him as he spoke.
Looking at Abner's withered right hand and feeling his debilitating breath, Wesley's brow furrowed slightly.
……
"The injured Pyro, does he still have enough strength to suppress those guys?"
……
This thought flashed through Wesley's mind, and he quickly left it behind, as the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that there is another monster next to this guy.
After being relieved, Wesley raised his head and was about to speak, when he was stunned, and Abner, who was in front of him, raised his head high and looked at the ceiling above......
"Get back to me, I haven't settled accounts with you yet!"
"Hmph, what's the matter with me, this bastard ran into my room by himself, I didn't kill him with a knife, it's enough to give you face!"
"Give me face, it's obvious that your hand is shaking, and then it's crooked~"
"Uh...... What cut crooked!! Obviously, I deliberately cut it crookedly, deliberately!! ”
Abner raised his head and stared at Semra peeking down from the upper floor, the fierce exchange of fire between the four eyes, the sparks that hit straight into the lightning and thunder!
Keenly aware of the strange eyes of Jill and Willis, Abner lowered his head unhurriedly: "This light bulb seems to be going to break, I am thinking about when to replace it." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw the lamps on the ceiling flicker quickly and brightly, as if there was really something wrong as Abner said, and Abner quickly changed the topic.
"Since Your Excellency has come to trace the footprints and found here, I think there should be a reason, whether you have made a decision about my previous proposal."
Wesley nodded slowly: "The dark world underground is inhabited by dragons and snakes, and the network of forces is intertwined and complex, not to mention the whole of New York, just as Manhattan is concerned, if there is no person who knows the roots to guide the way, no matter how strong your strength is, it is possible to plant a big heel!" ”
After hearing Wesley's reply, a smile suddenly appeared on Abner's face.
"If I said that I might have been in trouble before, but now that you are leading the way, this situation will naturally not happen again!"
"And ask Wesley to tell me about the current situation in the Manhattan underworld!"
Wesley didn't refute, and pondered for a moment before he spoke again, "Your Excellency......"
"Abner! Friends who know me well call me Abner! ”
"Ai ...... Abner ...... I'll talk about the division of power before Manhattan, but I'll pick up the more important things first. ”
"Uh...... The fierce fight you fought off a few days ago, and the shocking battle in the Pioneer Square area before, has raised the vigilance of some of Manhattan's old foxes, and they have all been hiding lately, but ......"
At this point, Wesley glanced at Abner before continuing.
"But there are some guys who are very unhappy with your oath in Pioneer Square, although there is no action yet, but from what I know about them, these guys will definitely have some action."
"In the past few days, one of the groups seems to be ready to start moving......"
Ding dong!
