The unexpected impact made Zero's brain dull in an instant.

She was a little difficult to understand for a while, or subconsciously resisted to understand the meaning of Lu Mingze's words.

However, after all, she is not the type who will hide her ears and avoid problems, and she quickly sorted out the current situation.

The reason why she stayed with Su Mo all the time was simply because of the mission, and her task was to protect Su Mo.

And now, since Lu Mingze said that this mission is over, it means that she doesn't need to continue to protect Su Mo.

It also means separation at the same time.

After staying with Su Mo for too long, she almost forgot that staying by Su Mo's side was just a short-term mission that started more than a month ago, and her real position should be in the wet nurse group.

Therefore, when she heard that the mission was over, she should follow the order and return to her previous life as she did with every previous mission, and return to a life where she would not be bullied by Xia Mi and Su Mo.

It stands to reason that this is something to look forward to.

As a rule of thumb, this is also something that does not require any hesitation.

However......

"Why?"

A slightly muffled girl's voice suddenly sounded, Zero's petite palms clenched slightly, still hanging her head and looking at the ground, her white teeth biting off a slight mark on her red lips.

Obviously, she asked this sentence.

After hearing this, Su Enxi and Jiude Mai glanced at each other, and at the same time showed a very shocked look.

In their minds, this was the first time in Zero's history that they questioned Lu Mingze's orders.

In the past, this would have been almost unthinkable.

In the trio of nurses, Zero has always been the simplest and most violent straight line, she never asks if the task is reasonable, and never asks what the meaning of the assigned task is, it is almost like a robot, even if it seems to be a task that is obviously sent to death, she will not react in the slightest.

In Zero's eyes, the enemy or obstacle or something has no meaning, just cut it off or blast it, if you can't do this, you can't complete the task, it means that she only has that level, and there is no value in continuing to live.

She's always been the type who doesn't even care about her own life, and she's not interested in learning about tasks other than what is necessary.

But now, not only did she not immediately accept Lu Mingze's order, but she actually wanted to ask the reason behind it?

They know that zero has changed a lot, and they also know that she cares about Su Mo very much, but let her change in this principled matter, and even ask the boss, isn't this a bit too exaggerated?

She and Su Mo have known each other for more than a month!

Under the surprised gaze of Jiude Mai and Su Enxi, Lu Mingze asked expressionlessly.

"What, why?"

"Why did you end the mission?"

Zero can only describe his own problems clearly.

"Isn't Su Mo the core of the plan, if he doesn't protect him, what will he do if he has an accident?"

The three-nil girl raised her head and asked in the same cold tone as ever.

Listening to what she meant, it seemed that she was questioning it out of public intentions and for Lu Mingze's mission.

Definitely not out of personal feelings.

In response to this question, Lu Mingze asked rhetorically again.

"Do you think that with your strength, you can really protect the current Su Mo?"

“……”

As soon as these words came out, Zero fell silent on the spot.

She suddenly understood why Miss Xia Mi showed such an aggrieved expression when comparing the strength of the Dragon King before.

There are some things that you can only understand if you have experienced them yourself.

Lu Mingze's words were right, with Su Mo's current strength, even if he didn't borrow a mask, he would be able to confront the Dragon King head-on, his strength was already above the emperor-level half-blood, and he was only half a step away from the Dragon King realm.

The previous Zero could also assist Su Mo with the help of the gift of blood and the word spirit of Time Zero, but after Su Mo's exclusive word spirit awakened to the current level, he didn't even need Zero to assist him.

Even, Zero is still a royal-level hybrid who only relied on him, and even if he has become a royal-level half-blood, the current Zero still can't help Su Mo, she knows everything Su Mo will.

Lu Mingze didn't say it, now she doesn't have the strength to protect Su Mo.

"I can try to be stronger!"

After a few seconds of silence, Zero clenched his small fists and spoke in a resolute tone.

If it's just because of a lack of strength, then she's willing to make up for it.

"The ancient fist method Xia Mi has already helped me lay a good foundation, and the world-destroying spirit can also try to let Su Mo teach me, and I am also working his exclusive spirit of words...... I'm not going to hold back! ”

She didn't think that her strength could surpass Su Mo, but as long as she was close, she could still help Su Mo avoid many crises.

If this is the reason why Lu Mingze asked her to end the mission, she can completely overcome this difficulty!

And in the face of the girl's determination, Lu Mingze immediately shook his head.

"Even if you do this, you can only obtain the power of the trumpet Su Mo, which is too far away."

As he spoke, he continued to add, without waiting for zero to refute.

"Moreover, the most important problem is not your strength, but the fact that Su Mo no longer needs protection, and his strength is improving a little too fast......"

At this, he showed a somewhat gloomy expression.

"Tsk! The strength is too strong, and it's also a trouble! ”

“——！”

Hearing this unsettling tone, Zero suddenly showed a stunned look.

Su Mo is strong enough to protect himself, although there are some regrets, but isn't this a good thing?

As an ally, why did Lu Mingze bother with Su Mo's strengthening?

She had a sense of foreboding.

And as if sensing her surprise, Lu Mingze showed a playful expression and smiled.

"Why are you so surprised? No way? Do you really think that I really pinned my hopes on Su Mo, so I wholeheartedly wanted to make him stronger, right? ”

“……”

Zero looked at Lu Mingze with wide eyes, and he didn't see any flaws in his expression.

If it was Jiude Mai or Su Enxi, they probably wouldn't believe Lu Mingze's words, because the resources of the nurse group have been deeply bound to Su Mo's side, and it is not that betrayal can be betrayed.

But there is no difference, as the person who knows Lu Mingze the most in the nurse group, she understands that Lu Mingze did it.

For his purposes, as long as the price is right, Lu Mingze can give up anyone, including the wet nurse group, even himself.

Such a Lu Mingze, if he hadn't fallen into a desperate situation, would definitely not have pinned all his hopes on others.

Realizing this possibility, a panic surged in Zero's heart that he couldn't even understand.

At this time, Lu Mingze continued to speak.

"Su Mo does have a special place, and this is what I want to take advantage of, have you ever heard of being the king's precursor? I just need him as a tool to help me solve the two troubles of Odin and the Black King, so he can't be too weak, but he can't be too strong. ”

"If he's too weak, it's not enough to solve my problem, and if he's too strong, isn't it possible to turn against me? Do you think I'm someone who will bring danger to yourself? ”

Speaking of this, Lu Mingze had a cruel smile on his face.

"Therefore, it is best for Su Mo to be able to defeat both the Black King, and at this time I can step on their corpses and ascend to the final throne."

Hearing this, Zero seemed to have returned to the past and saw the fire when the Black Swan Harbor was burning, and Lu Mingze at that time also left with a corpse.

With Lu Mingze's character, he is really not joking, he really did this kind of thing!

I'm afraid that from the very beginning, he had such a calculation!

Thinking that Su Mo still didn't know anything, he didn't realize that Lu Mingze was hiding in the shadows and might give him a knife in the heart at any time, there was a pain in his chest, and his breathing was completely messed up.

At this moment, Lu Mingze glanced at her and asked casually.

"Do you disagree?"

“……”

Zero opened his mouth, not knowing how to speak.

She was supposed to be just an emotionless machine to perform tasks, let alone give advice, and she shouldn't even ask the reason before.

As is customary, she just needs to listen to the task and carry it out.

However, if this is really the case, then what is the matter with the burning pain in her chest?

"Very good, since there is no opinion, then your current task is officially over, and the next task will begin."

As if taking her silence as no opinion, Lu Mingze advanced the topic on his own.

"Your new task is still to follow Su Mo."

“？！”

Zero looked up again, a little surprised.

Didn't you say that you didn't need to protect Su Mo?

As if he understood her expression, Lu Mingze immediately added.

"But this time you don't need to protect him, you just need to spy on him. The current Su Mo trusts you very much, and he is basically defenseless, and what you have to do is to use this trust to spy on him and find his weaknesses. ”

"I will give you instructions at the critical moment, you will be my sharp blade to penetrate Su Mo's chest, he must be very unbelievable at that time!"

I don't know if it's intentional or not, Lu Mingze described this scene very vividly, so that Zero's eyes were completely sharp.

However, Lu Mingze continued to ask as if he didn't notice anything.

"Can you complete this task?"

Of course not!

Zero wanted to say this, but Lu Mingze quickly waved his hand.

"If you can't do it, it doesn't matter, it's okay to let Enxi come, anyway, Su Mo trusts her a lot, Mai can't do it, Xia Mi's guy seems to have a big opinion on her figure!"

The so-called fatal blow, the most important thing is to take it by surprise, although Su Enxi's strength is far from enough, but if it is a weapon such as the Philosopher's Stone, Su Mo should not be able to withstand it without defense.

After realizing that Lu Mingze was serious, Zero was silent for a few seconds, and then changed his mind.

After realizing that Lu Mingze was serious, Zero was silent for a few seconds, and then changed his mind.

"I accept this task!"

The girl's little face was sealed like an iceberg, and her tone was as cold as ever, and it was obvious that she had made a decision in her heart.

"Not bad! I knew you could do it! ”

Lu Mingze grinned and touched the doll pillow in his hand.

"You have always been a very obedient child, an obedient and useful child, so that you can not be abandoned, not like this-"

As he spoke, he casually threw the doll's small pillow to the floor.

"Whew!"

There was no wind in the living room, but an invisible wind blade cut through it, removing the doll's pillow into eight pieces, revealing the sponge filling inside.

Zero hung his head deeply, looking at the tattered doll crumbs on the floor, and then at his own toes.

"I see!"

After answering like this, seeing that Lu Mingze had nothing else to say, she took heavy steps, and her back image was as decisive as Jing Ke who was about to set out to assassinate King Qin on the edge of Yi Shui.

"Bang!"

She gently closed the door.

·

Seeing the girl's gloomy figure disappear, the soundproof barrier closed again, and inside the living room, Su Enxi, who didn't say a word all the time, finally spoke.

"Is it necessary to talk to this extent, isn't she the little padded jacket you value the most?"

Zero herself probably didn't realize how pitiful her back was when she left, and even Su Enxi, who often got along with her, couldn't help but burst into motherhood and wanted to hug her and comfort her.

It's a pity that it wasn't her who should be hugged at this time.

Therefore, she chose to torture her boss, if she didn't dare in front of Lu Mingze, she really wanted to ask if the boss was human...... Although it is true that he is not human.

In the face of Su Enxi's questioning, Lu Mingze shook his head lightly.

"I taught her too many cruel truths, if the world is a big garbage dump, then what I taught her is how to survive in this garbage dump, the more cruel things are, the closer to the truth, and the vast majority of people will not see this in their lives."

Speaking of this, looking at the expression on Su Enxi's face, "Isn't this good?" on her face, Lu Mingze didn't wait for her to ask a question, and continued.

"But the world is not just an unsightly garbage dump, although there is a lot of garbage here, but she should not live for this garbage, someone should always teach her something else, such as appreciating flowers and plants other than garbage, or stars in the sky."

"She's learned how to survive, it's time to learn why she survived......"

Just like him, although he talks about power and power every day, all the reasons for his struggle are his brother, and it has nothing to do with power.

After listening to the words of the two, Mai Jiude, who was already a little skeptical, understood.

"So, what you just said was a lie? Boss, you didn't plan to let Sanwuniu kill her relatives in righteousness? ”

Seeing the genuine surprise on Jiude Mai's face, Lu Mingze's eyes widened.

"Hey, hey, hey! That kid cares about it, it's messy, and if you don't see it, forget it, why do you think of me like this in Mai? ”

"Could it be that in your eyes, I am actually the kind of neuropathy that Xia Mi is brazen, likes to backstab allies, and even coerces the little girl to attack the person she likes, and then happily watches the human tragedy on the sidelines?"

Hearing this, Jiude Mai hesitated, thought for more than ten seconds, and finally nodded.

"Sorry, yes, while that she-dragon may be a little stronger in terms of metamorphosis, you're even better at neurosis."

Her face was full of expressions of "I also want to be euphemistic, but the truth of the matter is like this, and I can't help it".

Most of the dragon kings are insane!

“OH！ NO！ ”

Lu Mingze showed an injured expression.

"I'm obviously sacrificing my image and playing the feudal patriarch who doesn't understand people's hearts and beating mandarin ducks, how can you misunderstand me so much? Is Enxi the only confidant in this world who can understand me? ”

As he spoke, he looked at Su Enxi with a touched face, she was probably the first to see that he was acting.

Hearing Lu Mingze's words, Su Enxi didn't take the opportunity to want a promotion and a salary increase, but scratched his cheeks a little embarrassed.

"Boss, although I can indeed see that you are acting, but what you said in the middle of the story is really not true? For example, let Zero monitor Su Mo, and let Su Mo and the Black King die together......"

"At first, I thought you were just trying to scare her, but after thinking about it, I think what you said makes sense, and such a sinister plan is also in line with your style-"

"So, you really don't want to ask Su Mo to help you through all the difficulties, and then kick him away?"

Speaking of the back, Su Enxi's expression became serious, obviously a little indistinguishable.

She did detect Lu Mingze's intentions from the beginning, but when she heard Lu Mingze's plan, she was a little uncertain.

Could it be that Lu Mingze was actually pretending to be joking, but in fact, what Chen Cang secretly said was his true plan?

It's not that Su Enxi is prejudiced against Lu Mingze, but with Lu Mingze's style and discipline, it is really possible to do this.

And the most important problem is that the plan that Lu Mingze casually said sounds a bit feasible, not quite like acting.

"Poof——! Even Enxi, you don't trust me? Heartbreaked! ”

Lu Mingze covered his chest, looking heartbroken.

After a few seconds of playing, seeing that the doubts on Su Enxi and Jiude Mai's faces had not dissipated, he sighed and suddenly returned to his serious expression.

"Alas, being the boss is actually this image in your hearts, which makes me really sad! But you're worrying too much, I can't do anything like that. ”

"How?"

Su Enxi asked curiously.

She didn't have any confidence in Lu Mingze's discipline and bottom line, but she still trusted Lu Mingze's brain, if he said that it was impossible to do this, then there must be a special reason.

"First of all, if I really plan to do something to Su Mo, then I have something wrong with my brain to make Xia Mi's love brain stronger to this extent...... Not to mention backstabbing Su Mo, even if he breaks his waist, this female dragon will have to find me desperately. ”

Lu Mingze sighed and said.

Not to mention that his current strength is not complete, even if it is complete, it will take a lot of effort to deal with Xia Mi, a dual-god realm-level existence.

It's not just him, no matter who wants to deal with Su Mo in this world, they have to weigh whether he can withstand Xia Mi's endless pursuit, and now she is not the weak Jörmungader she used to be.

"Secondly, Su Mo's own strength is not so simple, otherwise I wouldn't have formed an alliance with him, not to mention that he also knows where my weaknesses are, from the very beginning of the alliance, we have been holding each other hostage."

Today, the balance of power on both sides has changed direction.

At the beginning, it was indeed Lu Mingze who had a big advantage, but now, although it is a bit embarrassing to say, but in his current state, he really can't beat Xia Mi, a powerhouse in the Twin Divine Domains, and Su Mo's side is the one who is strong in strength.

Not to mention, from the very beginning, Su Mo knew that his weakness was Lu Mingfei.

If you really want to consider the issue of flipping the table, Lu Mingze's side actually has no qualifications to lift the table now, and it is Su Mo's side who really has the qualifications to lift the table.

Although I don't know whether Su Mo did it intentionally or unintentionally, his practice of feeding the authority of the Dragon King to Xia Mi did disintegrate their weakness at the root.

Originally, Lu Mingfei was Lu Mingze's weakness, and Su Mo and Xia Mi were each other's weakness, and the two sides were able to form a strategic deterrence balance.

But now, after Su Mo and Xia Mi's strength were mentioned, the weakness of their side disappeared directly, leaving only Lu Mingze's weakness exposed to the outside, and in this case, it was actually Lu Mingze's side that should be worried.

Fortunately, Xia Mi was obsessed with Su Mo and couldn't see this, but Su Mo could see this but would not take the initiative to break the covenant, so it was safe.

And this kind of thing that will destroy his own forced qualifications, Lu Mingze didn't want to explain in detail, so he just skipped it.

"And finally, and most importantly, the reason - you underestimate the Black King too much!"

Sweeping the expressions of the two, Lu Mingze shook his head, and his eyebrows were a little heavy.

"You want to control Su Mo's growth rate and make him as strong as the Black King, so that the two of them can die together? Scold! Even Odin could not have imagined such an arrogant and stupid scheme! ”

He sneered, his eyes sarcastic.

"The true power of the Black King, even I can't fully comprehend, is a god who is truly above all living beings, destined to destroy everything!"

"In the face of a monster of this level, I have never worried that Su Mo can become stronger, I am only worried that he will not be strong enough, if it weren't for his insistence, I would even like to feed him all the dragon bone crosses!"

“…… In short, the Black King is not the kind of trouble that can be easily solved by our intrigues, it is the end of the world that we may not be able to cross even if we work together and do our best! ”

When the Black King was mentioned, Lu Mingze's eyes flashed with bitter hatred, as well as great jealousy.

If you only have one chance to challenge an opponent of unknown strength, the wisest strategy is to boost your strength to the extreme.

And for Lu Mingze, the Black King is an unsolvable problem, and finally got the help of Su Mo, the only one who can surpass the other party, how can he dig his own grave?

After saying this, Lu Mingze was silent for a few seconds before recovering from his intense emotions, and then muttered in a low voice.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to misunderstand me so deeply, I suddenly understood how sad those middle-aged men were when they were treated by their daughters as criminal reserves!"

None of the team brought out by himself believed that he was a good person, is this a moral degradation, or the sadness of the times?

"Isn't that your problem?"

Su Enxi said euphemistically.

"If it is an ordinary family, it is indeed sad to be treated like this as a father, but who let the boss you be a devil at the level of a death row prisoner? It's not normal to not be suspected, right? ”

If Lu Mingze hadn't really done this, they wouldn't have been so worried.

"Well, you have a point."

After thinking about it, Lu Mingze nodded.

He actually listened.

"By the way, boss, your acting skills in the last one were a little exaggerated, and you deliberately tore the doll a little too hard."

Su Enxi commented on the acting skills of the boss of the play.

“…… Hey, it's a bit of a thing, but it doesn't matter, when it comes to Su Mo's safety, that kid has become a lot more stupid, and he shouldn't be able to see it. ”

Lu Mingze scratched his head, and then forcibly pulled his respect.

"Indeed."

Recalling Zero's back when he left, Su Enxi echoed.
