Chapter 167 The Three Giants of Heroes
When Lin Xi stepped out of the research institute, he was surprised to see that Eric and Mongolia were already waiting for him at the exit of the underground base in advance.
"What are the two of you?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly, looking with some wariness at the neatly arranged soldiers behind the two.
After a night of fierce fighting, these soldiers' faces were tired, but no matter how tired they were, they still stubbornly maintained the true colors of a strong steel army, the sky was overcast and cloudy, blocking the dawn from the clouds, and in the fierce wind of hunting, even the big trees that were hugged together were blown to the ground, but these soldiers seemed to be half rooted under their feet, not moving at all, and they were obviously the most elite soldiers under the command of the two.
Such a lineup made Lin Xi doubt the intentions of the two.
You know, although his roar lifted the crisis of the research base, but after all, deep underground, the impact on the entire landscape garden is not great, so at this moment, the battle within the community is still not over, or the sound of ghosts, smoke everywhere, from time to time you can see the exhausted figure of the warriors, as well as the ghosts that have disappeared because of a large number of attacks, those survivors who have no ability to fight back, at this time, they can only be like a nest of frightened quails, you push me and huddle around the campfire, He looked at the clouds in the sky and the darkness around him with fear on his face, and did not get a moment of peace of mind from the passing of the night.
And it was at this time that Eric and Mongolia even sent such a large number of elite combat forces to meet him, if there was no purpose at all, then he would never believe it.
"Don't get me wrong."
Seeing Lin Xi's suspicious and vigilant gaze, Eric laughed first, "The research institute is the top priority of the base, and we are here to support." ”
Support?
The corners of Lin Xi's mouth twitched, and he almost didn't laugh out loud on the spot.
Not to mention that the soldiers in the institute may have reported their roar to them a long time ago, even if they didn't, since they have appeared here now, they are still standing here motionless, such a move is said to be support, who believes it?
Seeing Lin Xi's sarcastic expression, Eric also smiled, "You misunderstood what we meant, just a little ghost, I don't think it's in the eyes of your mud bodhisattva, these supports are for you to support manpower, you are also the peak of inhumans, and the soldiers under your hand don't have a good face, right?" ”
He pointed behind him, "I have discussed with Commander Meng, they will be your soldiers in the future, I hope you will protect the research institute well, this is the flame of hope for our human beings in the last days." ”
"Oh?"
Lin Xi's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of these two people for a while.
Why did he send him such a large number of elite soldiers and strong generals, wasn't he still afraid of him to death before?
However, when Lin Xi was confused, he pinned the earphones in his ears, and suddenly Wu Qiuli's soft and glutinous voice came out, "They want to use your hand to control the research institute." ”
The headset was specially given to him by Wu Qiuli after hearing that the Mongolian two brought people to block the door, so that he could hear what he was talking to Mongolian Eric, which happened to play a role in breaking the sky.
Lin Xi's face turned pale when he heard this, revealing an expression of sudden realization.
He is not a stupid person, but he has seen less deceit and intrigue before, so he didn't react for a while, and now he was reminded by Wu Qiuli, and he immediately understood the plans of Mongolia and Eric:
In the past, when Zhu Shiqiu was there, relying on his own qualifications and the inertia of power before the end of the world, even if he did not have the peak of the Inhumans or even any force, he could firmly grasp the research institute in his own hands, Mongolia and Eric did not dare to interfere and could not intervene, after all, as Eric said, the research institute is no better than others, this is the flame of hope of mankind in the last days, if the research ability is damaged because of the struggle for power and profit, it is undoubtedly a great loss.
But now that the old man is dead, the situation is different.
When the old man died, he did not appoint an heir, or rather, it was useless for him to designate, after all, he was only the director, not the emperor, and the institute was not his private property.
And Gong Xuan, as his disciple, although she may indeed be quite talented in research, but no matter how talented she is, she is a genius, her qualifications are always there, in China's seniority-oriented society, she is destined to not be able to speak like her mentor, not to mention that she is still seriously injured and lying in bed, so she has no right to speak.
At this time, Eric and Mongolia lent troops to Lin Xi, as long as he raised the banner of the peak of the Inhumans, then he could easily empty Gong Xuan's power and make her a pure researcher, and take all the power such as personnel appointments and dismissals in his own hands.
As for whether Lin Xi will act in accordance with their interests after taking control of the research institute, they are even less worried...... Do you really think that these hundreds of proud soldiers have lent you and are yours?
Joke!
If Lin Xi is obedient, these people are a knife in his hand; And if Lin Xi is disobedient, this knife will definitely stab him in turn.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi's face suddenly turned pale.
However, just as Lin Xi was about to open his mouth to refuse, Wu Qiuli in the earphones had already sighed lightly and said, "Xiao Linzi, promise them." ”
"Huh?" Lin Xi was stunned, "But I promised you......"
Before he finished his words, he heard Wu Qiuli say again, "You don't have a choice, look at their formation." ”
Lin Xi's heart sank, and then he realized that the neat soldiers who were lined up just now had now been replaced by a semi-circular encirclement, and he himself was the center of the entire encirclement, and he had the posture that he would kill him on the spot as long as he didn't agree.
There is no doubt that if Lin Xi refuses at this time, then there will be another name on the list of victims of the ghost disaster.
This matter is not difficult, presumably whether it is Mongolia or Eric, they are familiar with it and will not have any hesitation, and then again, even if they don't necessarily do it, Lin Xi can't afford to gamble.
It's like two people arguing, arguing and arguing and one person suddenly takes out a knife and puts it on the other person's neck, at this time, even if he may not really stab it, but the person who is being compared to the knife can only assume that he will stab and then make his own choice.
"Heh, you really chose a good time to force the palace to seize power."
Lin Xi raised his eyes and looked around, looking at the devastated landscape garden, although his tone was full of sarcasm, but there was nothing but grief and indignation in his eyes, "The foreign enemy has not been cleared yet, is this busy with internal fighting?" ”
"We're not worried about these ghosts."
Eric smiled, and Mongolia also coldly replied, "As long as the sun comes out, everything will be fine, the only difference is whether it is a civilian or a soldier who dies." ”
They apparently also have their own channels to learn about electromagnetic life.
Ghosts use electromagnetic waves as a carrier of survival, and what they are most afraid of is the interference of other strong electromagnetic waves, and sunlight, as a kind of visible light, is also a type of electromagnetic waves, and it is also the strongest of them.
The power of this massive fusion celestial body that has been burning for five billion years is beyond the reach of any ghost.
Therefore, in the legends of any civilization, sunlight is the biggest nemesis of ghosts.
It is true that as the Mongols say, since the ghosts disappear as soon as the sun comes out, it is undoubtedly a thankless task to consume elite soldiers to protect civilians at this time, and it is better to take this opportunity to reach out to the research institute that they have been salivating for a long time.
Then, just when Lin Xi was still hesitating, Eric, the king of mercenaries with a knife in his smile, had already said with a smile again: "You have a good confidante and virtuous helper, mud bodhisattva." ”
Although Wu Qiuli's words were said to Lin Xi in the headphones before, there was no ordinary person present who could naturally hear them clearly and know who was pointing him behind his back.
When Lin Xi heard this, his eyebrows suddenly stood up.
"You threaten me?"
At this time, he suddenly regretted letting Wu Qiuli talk.
For those in power like Mongolia and Eric, what they are afraid of is never a martial artist like themselves, just because of their excellent force value, they can't play in a hundred ways, but Wu Qiuli's existence can make up for his weakness in intrigue, so if there is a choice, these two will definitely try their best to get rid of Wu Qiuli, so that it is more convenient for them to control Lin Xi.
However, Lin Xi is not a pure idiot, he can't intrigue him, but he is the best at it!
At this moment, his eyes flashed, but he turned the conversation around, and suddenly said something that seemed to be unrelated: "At the time of the cataclysm, I was at school, and from that day on, I didn't know whether my parents were dead or alive, and maybe I had already become an orphan...... Just like Lord Eric said, now Yan Ji is my most important relative, if something happens to her, then I think I will go crazy, when the time comes, maybe I will kill people when I see them, and I will hide and kill, kill one today, kill two tomorrow, anyway, there will always be a day when I will kill all of them, and at that time, I am afraid that no one's face will be good......"
As soon as his slow words spoke, the faces of Eric and Mongolia changed color at the same time.
Wu Qiuli on the other side of the radio wave was stunned when she heard this, and a knowing smile suddenly appeared on her beautiful face, "This guy is not stupid." ”
If it was Eric and the others who threatened him with Wu Qiuli before, then now that Lin Xi has put his attitude, it will be a headache for them.
Lin Xi made it clear, as long as something happens to my wife, I don't care what the happens, anyway, I'll go crazy and kill the two of you directly, I think you're afraid?
In this way, Eric and Mongolia not only can't think of ghost ideas to deal with Wu Qiuli, but they have to do their best to protect her, otherwise as long as she has three longs and two shorts, whether they did it or not, Lin Xi will definitely rely on them and never die.
"This ......" Eric smiled bitterly, and finally could only say, "Mud Bodhisattva, you first get acquainted with these new subordinates, cultivate a relationship, and then we will go to help other places exterminate the ghosts." ”
After saying that, he pulled the Mongolian and hurried away.
A man who looked like an officer immediately took two steps forward and saluted Lin Xi, "Sir, please instruct." ”
Lin Xi glanced at him coldly, didn't pay attention, was inexplicably pushed to such a cusp, and became a puppet, which made his mood extremely bad.
Fortunately, at this time, Wu Qiuli's gentle comfort came from the earphones, "Xiao Linzi, I know that they are forcing you like this, and you feel uncomfortable...... Hey, let's think of it as a hero created by the times, but now you're also one of the titular triumvirates of the Landscape Garden, aren't you? Rest assured! We'll all help you......"
"The Big Three? The times make heroes? ”
Lin Xi smiled bitterly, looked past the stiff officer in front of him, and slowly looked at the dark clouds of thunder overhead.
After being silent for a long time, he raised a sarcastic smile and replied quietly, "I see, the situation is stronger than people......
