Chapter 36 of the Return of "Human Journey" (the first update of today's third watch)
This is the date when the headquarters building of the Crystal Management Department is scheduled to be completed.
When Simon Demon Shadow arrived with a large number of subordinates, he suddenly saw the mess outside the building, and almost fainted in anger.
The main tower of the building, which was supposed to be completed, was still missing a gap, and the immigrant craftsmen were standing on the other side of the street and looking stupidly at the construction site, where several extra-large metal bumps were thrown around them, and hundreds of extremely long thumb-thick iron chains were wrapped around them, and the end of each chain was tied to the waist of a Sixth Colony native.
These shriveled, emaciated natives, armed with sharp bone or metal weapons, or armed with curved bows and straw arrows, were so energetic that they jumped around the construction site like fleas, and kept making high-pitched 'squeaks'. Occasionally, the immigrant craftsman dared to approach the construction site, and immediately three or five indigenous warriors flew over, cutting them with weapons, or two grass arrows flew over at once, and scratched thin wounds on the bodies of these craftsmen, and suddenly all the craftsmen couldn't help but stand a little farther away from the construction site.
"It's!" Ximen Demon Shadow was so angry that his teeth clicked, he glared angrily at Ximen Xuan, the disciple of his own family who was in charge of the construction of the building, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?" ”
Ximen Xuan smiled bitterly and lowered his head, and helplessly pointed his finger diagonally towards the military headquarters building opposite the building. The Demon Shadow of Ximen and the officials of the Hedron Management Department looked at it at the same time. Seeing this, Simon Demon Shadow was so angry that his nose itched, and he almost lost two nosebleeds.
The sun was shining in the sky, and it was warm and warm on people. Outside the windowsill of a certain part of the military building, a small, uncovered platform was abruptly made of reinforced concrete. Fang Wen was wearing a pair of small colorful beach pants and was lying on a bench on the platform to bask in the sun. It was just basking in the sun, but he still held a 2.5-caliber high-energy sniper rifle with extremely lethal power in his hand, and intentionally or unintentionally made a gesture at the building of the Crystal Management Department across the street.
Just as the demon shadow of Simon looked over, it seemed that with an inadvertent snap of his finger, a red bright light shot out from the sniper rifle, and it flew out of the outer edge of the main tower of the spar management department building. Fang Wen snapped his mouth, grabbed a glass of juice in his hand and took two sips, as if he was very dissatisfied with his accuracy, and aimed at the building with a sniper rifle.
"It's... Ximen Demon Shadow turned his head angrily, pointed at the group of indigenous warriors in the construction site and asked in a low voice, "Fang Wen is making trouble, and he doesn't dare to shoot our people seriously." What are these indigenous people doing? Well? Did Fang Wen deliberately drop it here? You're not going to clean up this group of natives? Fang Wen's people can't move, can't this group of natives also move? When did you become so soft-hearted? Or are you going to deliberately me off? Yes? Yes? Yes? ”
asked several times in a row, and the saliva of Ximen Demon Shadow splashed on Ximen Xuan's head, and Ximen Xuan kept bowing his head, bowing his head, and lowering his head again, and his nose was about to touch the ground.
After Ximen Demon Shadow's anger was vented for a while, Ximen Xuan cautiously raised his head and said, "This group of natives... They, they, they're all soldiers. ”
"Huh? Well? What did you say? "This time it wasn't Ximen Demon Shadow who opened his mouth to ask, Ximen Demon Shadow had been stuck in his throat by Ximen Xuan's answer, he was coughing violently, and he almost didn't cough up blood from his lungs. A dignified-looking middle-aged man named Ximen Dao beside Ximen Demon Shadow held Ximen Xuan's collar and whispered, "They are soldiers? Nonsense, how can they be soldiers? They... ”
Ximen Xuan's little face was wrinkled, and he lamented in a low voice: "Uncle Dao, they are all official soldiers of the Sixth Colony Star. You look at the epaulettes on them. ”
Ximen Dao and Ximen Demon Shadow looked at the natives who were jumping extremely happily, and yes, a pair of epaulettes were crookedly sewn on their animal skin clothes, showing that they all had the status of junior lieutenants. The natives had chains around their waists and were limited by the large metal ingots, but they were indeed clad in the skin of the Sixth Colony Garrison! If they were just captives captured by Fang Wen, Ximen Demon Shadow would have dared to order them to be killed right now, but now...
"Your Excellency Fang Wen, what do you mean by this? Do you deliberately get along with us? Ximen Demon Shadow raised his head and asked Fang Wen coldly.
Fang Wen sat up straight from the bench, and lazily poked out half of his head to look at the Demon Shadow of Ximen. He replied lazily, "Oh, Your Excellency Simon Demon Shadow! I'm sorry, I didn't leave you with any aftermath from that kick last time, right? You see, it's also to blame you for being too affectionate when you shook hands with me last time, aren't you? I'm nervous, and this leg is a spirit, alas! ”
With a sigh, Fang Wen pointed his sniper rifle at the group of indigenous warriors who were fluttering around, and smiled a little shyly: "You ask them what's going on?" Oh, and they were a bunch of indigenous warriors that I captured at the end of the rainy season. Well, I easily subdued them with high-ranking officials, good food and wine, and beautiful women, and they are now my supernumerary mercenaries. Their personal qualities are not bad, but they are only familiar with jungle warfare, and this skill and tactics are a bit lacking. ”
Scratching his beard, Fang Wen smiled and said: "So, I gave them a special training for urban warfare temporarily, you see, the terrain on your construction site is complicated, hehehehe, and there are imaginary enemies who have tried their best to subdue them, it happens to be an excellent simulated war zone, so... You see, you know, this, it's training! ”
Recruiting indigenous people as supernumerary mercenaries? You are ruthless enough! You do it!
Let the natives who can only jungle fight learn how to fight urban warfare? Your Fang Wen is black enough, you can come up with such a shameless reason!
Ximen Demon Shadow looked at Fang Wen in shock, and was speechless for a while. The best talent, how was such a shameless person born? Rao is Simon Demon Shadow has dealt with countless amazing characters in his life, and there are many of them who are talented, arrogant, and ruthless, but they lack this despicable and shameless type.
Can the A-class elite education of the ruling government educate such a shameless and obscene elite? The textbooks of elite education such as A, Ximen Demon Shadow has also been referenced, and what is educated in them are all 'tools' with almost identical personalities, abilities, and means of acting, how can a monster like Fang Wen appear?
Simon Demon Shadow thought of the heavy blow he had received in his lower body nearly a month ago. He even thought of what Kevin told him last night about Kevin's various analyses of Fang Wen's methods and psychological characteristics. Ximen Demon Shadow held back a breath of anger, and he decided not to have a head-on conflict with Fang Wen until the spar management department completely gained a foothold. At least, before having enough military strength to protect itself, Ximen Demon Shadow was unwilling to stumble with Fang Wen even a little more.
The ruling colleagues are unreliable, and they may wish to see Simon's family make a fool of themselves in their place. The representatives of the military are even more unreliable, maybe when Ximen Demon Shadow and Fang Wen are fighting happily, it is a good time for this group of people from the military to fall into the well and stab them in the back. How much power and how much benefit the spar management department will have, Ximen Demon Shadow is clear in his heart, it is because the future interests of this newly established department are too huge, so Ximen Demon Shadow must be even more cautious, and any behavior must be like walking on thin ice.
So, the Ximen Demon Shadow put a kind smile on his face, and he bowed to Fang Wen with a smile: "Your Excellency Marshal, today is the time when the headquarters building we are scheduled to complete and the spar management department is officially opened. ”
Fang Wen sat on the edge of the small platform, his legs hanging down from the edge of the platform, dangling more than 100 meters above the ground, Ximen Demon Shadow clearly saw that Fang Wen's feet were sticking to a piece of green peel, the peel seemed to be grinning at Ximen Demon Shadow, Ximen Demon Shadow's heart was as hot as it was to hold back the fire. But now is definitely not the time to turn his face with Fang Wen, the Ximen Demon Shadow can only show up again, and in his own opinion, he already has a somewhat servile smile: "Marshal Fang Wen, your people are here, but they interfere with our normal work." ”
With a slight deviation of his body, Fang Wen fell from a height of 100 meters, fluttering lightly without the slightest smell of fireworks, like a white crane's feathers falling to the ground, without the slightest sound. He happened to float in front of the Ximen Demon Shadow, looked up at the Ximen Demon Shadow slightly, and smiled: "This matter is simple. Yesterday my subordinates proposed a duel to His Excellency Simon and sent a letter of war, I wonder what His Excellency Simon's decision is? Well, a duel, or an escape? ”
Simon Demon Shadow's face stiffened, he still remembered yesterday's events very clearly. Simon Tu was seriously injured and is now lying in the culture tank undergoing cavernous body reconstruction surgery. Although the arms of the four people including Ximending had been taken back, after all, the arm meridians had been severely damaged, and their 'demon claws' cultivation could only maintain the original level of forty percent within three months. Ximen Guo, who was the least injured, was shattered with both palms, and the foundation of the 'Demon Claw' was almost completely destroyed.
Nangong Xu's family was extremely ruthless, and Ximen Demon Ying had already inquired about the identity of Nangong Xu's family, and knew that they were death fighters recruited by Fang Wen from the underground gladiatorial arena, and he also roughly guessed the origin of Nangong Xu's family. How could the Ximen Demon Shadow, who was well versed in the grievances between his Ximen family and the Nangong family, agree to Fang Wen's request?
He is a noble and exquisite piece of ancient porcelain, and the Nangong Sha family is just a clay pagoda that can be seen everywhere on the ground, and he wants to duel with such a person? Simon Demon Shadow didn't think it was worth it.
"You must have made a mistake, did I promise to duel them?" Ximen Demon Shadow looked at Fang Wen with a sneer: "Their identities are not qualified enough to propose a duel to me." ”
"So, according to who they are, who are they qualified to duel against?" Fang Wen immediately asked.
Ximen Demon Shadow raised his head proudly and smiled: "The young people in the clan can also play with them." ”
"Great goodness!" Fang Wen immediately clapped his hands and smiled: "Your Excellency Ximen is really arrogant, in this way, let Admiral Nangong and your children come to duel a hundred times first." May I assume that Your Excellency has already agreed to Admiral Nangong's application for a duel against the Ximen family? Well, if so, I will officially file it with the Ministry of War, and I would like to ask everyone present to be a witness. ”
Without waiting for Ximen Demon Shadow to speak, a three-star marshal with the highest military rank present had already pursed his lips and smiled: "Duel, this is a good thing, we and other people in the army, there are still people who are afraid of duels?" No matter what reason Admiral Nangong made to the Ximen family's application for a duel, we, the notary, have made it. The three-star marshal bared his teeth at the demon shadow of the West Gate without smiling, and then smiled at Fang Wen: "However, today is the day when the Crystal Management Department is preparing to officially handle official business, Marshal Fang Wen, what do you think?" ”
Gently clapping his palm, Fang Wenle said, "You said so, what else is there to say?" Well, rattle, slap, coax, call it a day, remove those metal lumps, and you go back to eating meat. ”
'Boom', three beast soul warriors with dull eyes, knotted muscles, and heavy hair rushed out of the gate of the spar management department, and they picked up the heavy metal ingots without saying a word, and forcibly pulled the aboriginal warriors who were jumping and shouting out of the construction site.
Fang Wenchao was so angry that he couldn't speak, and the Ximen Demon Shadow smiled slightly and said, "Don't bother." My men have been withdrawn, and Lord Simon can order the main tower to be topped out. I wish His Excellency Ximen's spar management department a prosperous and prosperous financial resources! I hope that Your Excellency Simon will leave some money for the military of the Sixth Colony Star to eat, hehe, don't push us too hard. ”
After a few strange laughs, Fang Wen turned around lazily and left, and walked slowly into the military building with his hands behind his back.
The Ximen Demon Shadow looked at Fang Wen's back angrily, and then glanced at the generals sent by the military department with great resentment, and sneered gloomily: "Duel? Hmph, hum, good, good, just let the horse come. He turned his head to Ximen Xuan and ordered: "Xiao Xuan, you must pay attention to entering and exiting in the future, and you must not act alone." That Nangong Sha, they and our Ximen family have a deep enmity of blood. ”
Ximen Xuan responded respectfully. Seeing Fang Wen ordering those natives to leave, he, the supervisor in charge of the construction of the entire building, breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, the evil wind sounded in his ears, and Ximen Xuan suddenly felt that his body was light, and he flew up very quickly.
The people around him were horrified to see Nangong Sha, holding a large leather bag filled with fist-sized metal projectiles, striding from the end of the street towards this side. He casually threw out a metal projectile, like a meteor that had been wandering in space for hundreds of millions of years, and threw it into the arms of a certain planet with a stunning trajectory, and the projectile accurately hit Ximen Xuan's head, sending him flying nearly 100 meters with a single bounce.
Just when Ximen Xuan's body was still flying in the air, and before the Ximen Demon Shadow could react, the people of the Ximen family couldn't believe that Nangong Xuan dared to openly attack the Ximen family in front of so many people, and a projectile with a terrible sound of breaking the air flew out of Nangong Xuan's hand again.
'Click', the projectile caught up with Ximen Xuan who was flying in the air with a slick of afterimage, and flew into the not wide passage between his legs accurately, hitting his lower body hard.
Ximen Xuan, who was stunned by the first projectile in the air, suddenly came to his senses, his body twisted in the air like a prawn, and opened his mouth to spew out a blood spring that looked so gorgeous in the sun. A large amount of blood spilled from his trouser legs, dripping and outlining two long blood marks on the ground.
"Nangong Sha! You dog guts! Ximen Demon Shadow jumped up angrily, and with a black light on his body, he shot towards Nangong Xuan.
Nangong laughed wildly three times, and he turned around and left with the special big leather bag. He laughed wildly and said, "Ximen Demon Shadow, you know why I'm looking for you!" You know! Duel, this is the endless duel between our Nangong family and your Ximen family! You can't escape, I swear by the souls of my Nangong family's ancestors, you can't escape! You can't escape! ”
Nangong Sha was very familiar with the nearby terrain, he didn't fight alone with the Ximen Demon Shadow at all, he went around the building a few times, and easily left the Ximen Demon Shadow.
The Ximen Demon Shadow stood in a small alley where Nangong Sha had disappeared, looking up to the sky angrily and roaring, and thick black qi gushed out from his body, covering a radius of several hundred meters.
In the midst of the black steaming, Fang Wen appeared like a ghost.
Fang Wen held a pure diamond iron rod with a human head thickness of more than two meters long, and a very gentle stick slammed into the back of Ximen Demon Shadow's head.
The huge force exploded, and the Ximen Demon Shadow couldn't even turn back, and was knocked to the ground by Fang Wen with a stick. Then, Fang Wen jumped high and kicked the lower body of the Ximen Demon Shadow fiercely.
'Hmm~~~', the heavily unconscious Ximen Demon Shadow let out a groan of severe pain, and his body instinctively twisted.
Nangong jumped down from a tall building on the side of him dissatisfied, and said angrily to Fang Wen: "Lord, this is a fair duel between our Nangong family and Ximen family. ”
"That's fair!" Fang Wen rolled his eyes and smiled at Nangong: "Their Ximen family can also send someone to beat me with a stuffy stick, isn't it fair?" ”
With such a shameless act, Nangong rolled his eyes helplessly at Fang Wen, turned around and left. Out of the pride of a warrior, he didn't want to kill the Ximen Demon Shadow who was knocked unconscious by Fang Wen's stuffy stick. However, out of bitter hatred for the Ximen family, Nangong Sha had just taken two steps, and suddenly jumped back, kicking his leg a few inches higher than his head, and a big split leg slammed into the lower abdomen of Ximen Demon Shadow three inches below.
Fang Wen and Nangong Sha left the alley.
Thirty-seven seconds later, a large number of officials from the Crystal Management Department arrived at the scene.
The officials in the ruling government rolled their eyes one by one, looking at the sky without saying a word.
A three-star marshal of the military department squatted down solemnly to check the injury of the foaming Ximen Demon Shadow, and nodded very seriously: "I judge from my experience that Your Excellency Ximen was knocked down in a fair face-to-face duel. This is fully in line with the provisions of the Duel Act. ”
Simon howled hysterically in anger: "Are you blind? My uncle was injured in the back of the head! Such a big wound is still bleeding! ”
These experienced generals of the military department looked at Ximendao with very pure, pure, and innocent eyes one by one, as if Ximendao was a fool.
A one-star marshal said in a strange voice: "The back of the head is injured... There is a kind of exercise called beating a cow across the mountain, hitting the chest and hurting the back, don't you know that Your Excellency Ximen Dao? ”
Ximen Dao was dumbfounded.
When shamelessness has become a trend, what else can Simon Dao say?
