231 City of Heresies-3
"You're asking me about interest?"
Hearing Zhang Luo's words, the fat worm's eyes bent into a crescent shape, raised a pile of white paper in his hand, opened his big mouth to reveal his smoky teeth, and said with a cruel smile: "Mr. Freddy's autographed IOU is still with me, and it clearly says 500% interest rate, do you want to see it?" ”
"That's when you removed the decimal point." A look of resentment appeared on Freddy's disfigured face.
"Maybe, but do you have proof? My IOU here is clear. Worm Tian laughed shamelessly, and squirted green saliva from his mouth as he spoke: "I advise you to repay the money as soon as possible, as long as you delay one more minute, your debts will become even more!" ”
Seeing that the other party looked like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, Zhang Luo snorted: "What I want to know is, will there be someone to protect you on this island?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the executioner wearing a giant triangular helmet had already stood in front of him, staring at him motionlessly, so he sighed helplessly: "Well, when I didn't ask......"
-- As the saying goes, money makes the devil grind. Now it seems that the local terror enforcers have indeed been bought by this damn money grubber.
Zhang Luo knew that under the deterrence of the triangular head, the three-headed dog of hell and the boss of the loan company, even if there was one more person on his side now, he would not have much advantage in a real fight.
What's more, even if you win now, you will be chased by the triangle head when you go back. In this way, the option of using force to solve the problem is tantamount to being ruled out.
So, now we have to find other breakthroughs.
Looking at the three-headed dog behind him who kept baring his teeth at him, he thought for a moment, and suddenly changed the subject: "That's Cerberus from Hades, right?" It's amazing......"
“……”
Facing the young man who "turned into the wind" in front of him, the worm was also stunned for a moment. Then he narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Don't try to change the subject. ”
As if he hadn't heard the other party's words, Zhang Luo continued to ask: "I want to know, is this company related to Hades?" ”
As the king of Hades in Greek mythology, Hades is the guardian of Hades, a terrifying watchdog that can also be counted as his subordinate.
Cerberus was supposed to be at the entrance to Hades. It is obviously very strange to be in the lobby of this company.
As expected, the worm in front of him replied, "Our company is indeed a subordinate organization opened by Lord Hades, do you have any questions?" ”
"Oh, then we're companions, can you give us some discounts?" Zhang Luo took a step forward as he spoke, stood in front of the worm, and raised his left hand in front of the other party's head.
"What is he doing?"
Jason asked Freddy beside him. Freddy shook his head. said he didn't know what was going on.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the worm, which was still in a tough state, suddenly widened its eyes, stared at Zhang Luo's left hand, and made a surprised voice:
"It's ...... Lava Reshape, Are You 'Son of Gaia'? ”
"Yes, exactly. Everyone is a good friend of Olympus, can you give a discount? Zhang Luo immediately showed a familiar look.
While speaking. A message from Frankenstein appeared in his executioner's eyes: "What is the son of Gaia." ”
"I don't know what that thing is." Zhang Luo silently responded with his thoughts.
While searching for treasure in the city of Donroske, he used the "Gaia Engine" to reshape his broken left hand, so that his left hand was not the "original", but a version forged with the power of the earth.
Since it was only for the treatment of fractures at that time, Zhang Luo did not expect that his left hand would come in handy here. However, he continued to talk about it: "For everyone's sake, how about calculating the normal interest rate? After all, there are not many gods alive in the Olympus god system now, right? ”
Most of the gods recorded in Greek mythology were killed by a bald man named Kratos. It is said that the few gods who survived were hiding in deserted places. However, Zhang Luo has no time to study this kind of problem now. Just continue to fool each other.
"The Son of Gaia is indeed rare, I want to report to Lord Hades, you wait here for a while."
As if because of Zhang Luo's unusual identity, the worm's originally bad attitude suddenly improved a lot, and he hurriedly turned around and crawled back to the room next to him, leaving a trace of translucent slime on the floor.
After about five minutes, the worm finally poked its head out of the room and beckoned to Zhang Luo, who was still standing in front of the three-headed dog of hell:
"Come here, Lord Hades wants to see you in person."
"Got it." Zhang Luo nodded and smiled at the three people beside him: "Leave it to me next." ”
Although he didn't know what would happen next, in the past two months, after experiencing all kinds of "accidents", Zhang Luo's ability to adapt to changes has reached a new level.
So now, even with the title of completely unknown meaning, he didn't show a hint of nervousness, but just walked quickly into the room where the worm was, and observed the scene inside.
The room, like the chamber where the Gaia engine was located, was a standard square, devoid of any furniture or office utensils, except for an old portal on the wall facing the door.
The rectangular frame of the portal is inlaid with pale skeletons, and the blue light flickers inside the door, like a deep ocean.
"Bang!"
The worm slammed the door behind Zhang Luo, and then locked it skillfully. However, at this time, the young man with the black suitcase in his hand did not have time to pay attention to the owner of the loan company behind him, but stared at the "Gate of the Underworld" in front of him without blinking.
Then, the faint blue light in the door suddenly began to brighten, and a vague face, which could only be faintly discerned, appeared in it without warning. Open your mouth and make a breathtaking, eerie voice:
"Son of Gaia?"
"That's right, it's me." Zhang Luo's face did not change and his heart did not beat.
"Are you from underground?" The remnant of Hades in the door asked again.
"No, I've always lived on the surface." Zhang Luo continued to talk nonsense.
"How is it possible to live on the surface and touch the Gaia engine......" Hades' hollow eye sockets narrowed, and then he suddenly asked, "Do you know where the Gaia engine is now?" ”
"Even if I knew? Why should I tell you? Zhang Luo narrowed his eyes.
Hearing this, the worm behind him rebuked: "How dare you talk to Lord Hades like this......"
It's a pity that the worm's words were interrupted by his master before he could finish speaking.
"Tell me where the engine is, and I can completely forgive your debts, how about it?"
"Oh...... I'm going to think about it. Zhang Luo pretended to say.
It seems that Hades is very interested in the Gaia engine. Realizing this, Zhang Luo also immediately thought of what to do next. (To be continued.) )
