Chapter 55: On the Seizure of Power
As the night gradually darkened, the already dim space became even darker, as if a layer of ink had been applied, and the events of the day gradually subsided, but the deep pits in the square and the collapsed buildings kept reminding everyone of the true names of what happened during the day.
Zhou Kun, one of the rulers of the Divine Capital, was killed and died by a man he had never seen before.
And the protagonist of this incident is now very relaxed in a certain villa, after taking a shower, changing into casual clothes, and lying on the sofa.
Next to them were Xin'er and Chuyang, and outside the villa, their cars were parked.
"Boss, these people are too good at enjoying it, looking at this villa, looking at this room, except for the absence of high-tech products such as TVs, there is almost everything, it's really comfortable!" Chu Yang was half-lying on the sofa, eating the fruit of a certain mutated plant while sighing.
"But boss, if you kill that commander, will they let you go?" Chu Yang was still a little worried.
"Who knows?" Midnight shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently. I think back to this afternoon.
Zhou Kun was killed, everyone was shocked, and the figure standing in the void in the middle of the night was deeply engraved in their hearts, as for avenging Commander Zhou, they didn't have this idea, humans flew without the help of anything, they had never seen this ability, and even Commander Zhou was killed, how could they win.
And at this time, when Zhou Kun was using his talent skills, the person who stopped him also came to the scene, he was Xie Changyun, and what made everyone extremely strange was that Commander Xie not only did not use force against the night, but was extremely respectful.
In the stunned eyes of everyone, with the support of the army, he broke away from the scene, causing many people to be stunned in place, but some people figured out the middle joint, this strange man has reached the point where those in power must be respectful, in the last days, everything depends on strength to speak.
Later, at the invitation of Xie Changyun, Midnight took Xin'er to live in this villa, which is Xie Changyun's home.
"Bumper!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and someone said, "Little Brother Midnight, are you there?" ”
"Chu Yang, go open the door." Midnight gestured to Chu Yang, who was sitting on the sofa.
Soon, Chu Yang came to the door, turned the handle, and opened the door.
The eye is a middle-aged man in his forties, with no marks on his forehead, obviously a mortal, wearing plain clothes on the outside, and from between the collars, you can see the black leather armor inside. The texture is tough, and the eyes are vicious, and it can be seen at a glance that this is a leather armor sewn from the skin of a fourth-order mutant beast.
This man was burly, with a square steel face, and a domineering and strong posture that had been in a high position for a long time between his eyebrows, and he stepped in, stopping several uniformed guards behind him and entering the house.
"Something?" After Chu Yang closed the door, he looked at the middle-aged man and asked.
"I'm sorry, little brother of the night, but I still couldn't stop them, they said they needed you to make a trip." The man's face was very embarrassed, and he said half-loudly.
"Okay, Brother Xie will lead the way, it just so happens that I have something to talk to them about!" Midnight smiled and said.
"Brother, shall I go with you?" Xin'er was a little worried.
"It's okay, wait for my good news." Midnight lowered his head and kissed Xin'er's forehead lightly, and said gently.
"Alright, go and get back quickly." Xin'er's little face was flushed and said shyly.
Midnight smiled and nodded, followed behind Xie Changyun, and walked out of the room.
"Little Brother Midnight, do you think the mortal seed is really inferior to the god seed?" While walking, Xie Changyun suddenly spoke: "To be honest, I really don't believe it, and he has been trying to find a way to make up for the shortcomings of the mortal race, but as time goes by, the power of the god seed has become stronger and stronger, and even some people have stopped running tanks and artillery, and the threat of our army has become less and less sufficient." ”
"Mortals are also being treated more and more unequally, and if I hadn't had the title of military commander, and if I had a lot of brothers in my hands who were willing to follow me, I might have been driven to the periphery by them now."
"For example, today, my voice in the meeting is getting weaker and weaker, and in the end I have to give in, so I can only come and let you pass." Xie Changyun's face was gloomy, and his eyebrows were full of worry.
Midnight smiled, did not answer, quietly followed behind, and headed towards the building not far ahead.
Half an hour later, under the leadership of Xie Changyun, they came to the door of the conference building in the middle of the night, and only after Xie Changyun showed his identity certificate did the guards let them in.
"Little Brother Midnight, the conference room has arrived." Xie Changyun pointed to the closed gate not far in front of him and said, "To be honest, I have to say thank you to you, and thank you in a private capacity." ”
"Oh, why do you say that?" Midnight said with interest.
"This involves some personal grievances, it's a long story, I still won't say it, you better go in first." Xie Changyun shook his head and didn't answer positively, he almost didn't save his daughter's innocence, he was too a failure as a father.
"Sometimes I wish I was a god." Xie Changyun suddenly sighed with emotion, and there was a sense of despair in his tone, like a hero in the twilight.
"Brother Xie, actually, I don't think the mortal seed is necessarily worse than the god seed." Midnight smiled and said with a little mystery. As he spoke, he brushed up the strands of hair that covered his forehead, revealing a clean forehead. There is no sign of the divine seed there at all.
"You... You..."Xie Changyun's eyes widened, and the guards behind him looked at him in disbelief, he couldn't believe that Midnight, which had such terrifying strength, didn't have the mark of the god seed, which meant that mortal seeds could also become so powerful.
Suddenly, Xie Changyun remembered a report a few days ago, saying that there were capable mortals in the inner city barracks, and he thought it was a mistake at first, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, but the scene in front of him reminded him of that incident again.
After Xie Changyun reacted, Midnight had already opened the door of the conference room and walked in, and Xie Changyun also hurriedly ran over.
"You're the one who killed Zhou Kun?!"
As soon as Midnight entered the conference room, someone stared at Midnight with a bad face.
Midnight didn't even look at him, found a vacant seat, sat down, and looked indifferent.
"Boy, you're hanging, you want to die!" When this man saw that Midnight dared to ignore him, he immediately became angry and wanted to clean up Midnight.
"Enough, Xiaohai, this is not a mercenary union, convergence!" It was a young man in a decent suit, with a delicate face and a slender figure, wearing leather armor under the suit, and his eyes flashed with a sharp essence.
"Got it, President!" The yellow-haired boy in his twenties lowered his head and retreated to the side of the man in the suit, but his eyes were not kind to look at the night.
This yellow-haired kid is not a mediocre hand, he is a fourth-order god species.
"Hello, first time we met, my name is Teng Rong, I am the president of the mercenary union, you are called Midnight, I have heard of you, you are the only one who has completed the only A-level task on the periphery, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful. Even Zhou Lao is not your opponent. My subordinates are reckless, and I apologize to him as the president. Teng Rong was very kind, and nodded to Midnight with a smile.
Midnight nodded in response and said, "It turned out to be the president of the mercenary union, but I didn't expect you to be so young." "The first time I saw the president of the mercenary union, Midnight was indeed a little surprised, he was too young, he looked like he was in his twenties.
"There, Brother Midnight is much younger than I am." Teng Rong smiled and waved his hand.
"Enough, deaf, we're not here to listen to your nonsense, if you have something to say, go outside, in the conference room, just shut me up." The speaker was a thin man, unusually gorgeously dressed.
"Why, I really thought that you were a member of the Divine Alliance created by Du Chang, so I wouldn't dare to touch you?! Don't forget, you're just an inconspicuous captain! There are as many as there are in the city of God! Teng Rong was very unhappy, and every sentence was prickly.
"You...!"
This gorgeously dressed man was suddenly so angry that his whole body trembled, it is no wonder that there are many captains of the Divine Alliance, although the Divine Federation is a powerful force established by the capital and has a high status. But Teng Rong really killed him, and he had nowhere to find a reason.
Anyway, he has recently broken through to the fourth order, and he is still a single ability, it is already good to be able to enter the conference room, and it will definitely be unlucky to be in the pit with the boss of the old forces.
"Hmph, ant-like thing!"
Teng Rong didn't go over and didn't look at him anymore.
"Is the mercenary guild powerful? How did I not know? Opposite Teng Rong, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a mature and handsome face, full of a playful smile, said while knocking on the table.
And behind this middle-aged man, there stood a handsome face, white skin, a pair of sword eyebrows full of heroic spirit, in the center of his eyebrows there are marks representing ice, wind, thunder flashing light.
He was looking at the gloomy night with a calm face.
Feeling the man's gaze, he looked over in the middle of the night, and just as the eyes collided, the man smiled politely and withdrew his gaze.
Then Midnight slowly turned his head and looked at the man on his right, who had not spoken.
"Shut up, what are you doing so noisy? If they all grow back, seeing you like this will definitely make you look good. At last the man spoke, and stopped their quarrel with a word.
"Yes, Deputy Governor!" Everyone spoke in unison, and their tones were full of respect.
"Okay, let's start announcing the results of this meeting." The deputy governor stood up and looked at Midnight condescendingly, "After this meeting, it has been decided that the killing of Commander Zhou in Midnight is conclusive and sentenced to death!" ”
