Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Villain's Ambition
Captain Cao was worthy of his nickname "Cao Daring", and was stunned for a long time, but finally regained his composure. At least judging from the contact just now, this old man is not a dead man, let alone an undead.
In the Pan American Continent, except for high-level undead creatures, ordinary undead creatures are very afraid of sunlight, and even high-level undead creatures are not afraid of sunlight and hate sunlight very much. The room was very well lit, and even now there was a ray of sunlight shining through the window on the old man's body, and it had no effect at all. Which high-level undead creature is not a thick dead aura? This old man doesn't even have the slightest breath of death on his body, except that his body bones are a little bad.
The Celtic capital of Boston is home to the famous Titi North Shore Gardens, which resemble a giant monster forest, and Red Auerbach is the monster leader there. The cause of his death is the same in all rumors, he was buried in a sea of fire, but only a few years ago.
One night that year, the old man extinguished the candle of his life forever. Unlike the glorious retirement of many other well-known people, this tall figure, the legendary old man, is really as those who look down on him, fear him, and even curse him, leaving this world that he has been tired of conquering. At most, the cause of death is a bit strange.
At the dinner party where the king of the Celtic Empire rewarded the meritorious ministers of the empire, the king had not yet arrived, and suddenly the hall that had gathered countless meritorious ministers of the empire had strangely ushered in the patronage of heaven and earth, and it was said that no one present was spared. Among them. Including Auerbach.
If it were just an ordinary fire, it would never have caused such heavy damage. Among the meritorious officials present, there are many powerful masters, not to mention ordinary fires that kill them. Even their leg hair may not burn out two. Hundreds of people were burned to death.
The news came out that not only the thunder rolled down from the sky, but also countless fires erupted from the ground, and after this apocalyptic picture like the end of the world, it caused such a legend that shocked the Pan-American continent.
Some people say it's because of the people present, maybe some of them have done something very bad. It caused the condemnation of the gods to the point of sending down such condemnation. A lot of people are unlucky because they are implicated by that bad guy. Others say that Auerbach and the others were already otherworldly and should not have been in this world, so they were summoned to their arms by the gods.
Either way, it's still so mixed. But it all points to one point. It was that the thunder and fire that day were extraordinary.
This legend is really a bit like the pictures in those Xianxia books that Captain Cao had read before, and that kind of situation should be called "catastrophe" in professional terms. But when the great sages and powerful people understand that the Great Dao is about to ascend, they will attract the heavenly calamity of heaven and thunder, earth and fire, and they will be able to ascend to the flesh and become immortals. If you can't cross it, it will become barbecue meat in the thunder and fire, and it will be blasted into powder. Is there such a thing as zài in this world? Commander Cao didn't think so. There are people in this world who can do such things, such as the large-scale magic of super magicians, and even forbidden spells. can have that effect.
If what Pierce said was true, then Auerbach would have sat alive in front of Captain Cao, smoking and drinking, without dying or soaring. Is it fake...... Hardly possible. How could there be such a stupid bird in this world who would swagger and deceive in the Exiled Realm with such a name? What good can he do? It is impossible for the people of the Exiled Realm to worship as a god, right? Not to mention, whether it's Auerbach or Pierce, they both have super strength. There's no reason to deal with so many bandits here, and their presence here seems to have something to do with that bizarre natural disaster.
It's exactly like a drama of the Otherworldly Fire Hero Building. The king of Seltic, who feasted on the ministers, how could Captain Cao guess. It's all a bit of Zhu Chongba's taste. And Auerbach and the group of Celtic meritorious ministers are in line with the identity of the protagonist of this drama who was trapped, and it is said that the merit is high. Who could be more representative than someone like Auerbach?
Thinking about this, Captain Cao even had the illusion of a cup full of cold sweat. As for the reason why these two Celtic Empire heroes appeared in this remote and wild place, there was only one conjecture left. Even they themselves were forced to stay here out of desperation. If anyone found out that someone like Auerbach who should have died a long time ago was still alive and well, and with a henchman who regarded him as an idol, he would be frightening to many people.
Pierce's cousin was worthy of being a faithful follower, and his admiration and respect for Auerbach could be seen from the fact that he was now silently clamoring for his life to play with Captain Cao. A person like him who commands the army has no calm personality, and he fights a fart battle, but he is almost the same as being played by others. Such a person will only show such an excited side when his faith is touched, and Pierce's expression is completely consistent.
Thinking of his aggressive appearance just now, Head Cao suddenly felt like a stupid bird who didn't know the height of the sky. A group of brothers with the position of bandits in the Exiled Domain coerced a super legend of the Human Empire to give him a hand, which is more or less like a mouse forcing a cat to be his best man, a tired and crooked cousin.
However, Captain Cao still has the true character of an outlaw, and the unexpected thing is more of a shock than a fear.
"What's the matter? This old man doesn't have any writing on his face, who the knows who he is? You say he's Auerbach, that's it? Just like that, you're going to duel with me? There are more than 300 brothers outside Lao Tzu, do you want to go out and kill them all first? If you say the wrong thing, you will die, so how many people in this world should live?" Captain Cao rolled his eyes, lit a cigar against the sword that almost poked his nose, and two thick smoke spewed out viciously from his nostrils.
It's really thanks to Captain Cao's thinking that can be so logical at this time, and every sentence thrown out of the words made Pierce stunned for a while. He also came back to his senses. Even if Auerbach were still alive, he would no longer be the Auerbach he is known to the world. Even he, Pierce, was already a genius general who had unfortunately died in the Seltic Empire. Pierce's face was even covered with a blank look. Even the arm holding the sword slowly sank.
"That's enough, you bad boy, aren't you just trying to find out who I am? No one here should know this, and they really don't have the ability to know this. In this realm of exile, he can come to me so swaggeringly, and still point fingers at me like this, spitting stars. You're still the first. "No, old man. It should be said that Auerbach said with a smile.
Captain Cao's little tricks fell into his eyes, and there was almost no deception. At most, it can stimulate the bloody Pierce, as for Auerbach himself. I don't care about the past for a long time. As he himself said, being able to live this life in this place is not a bad choice for him in his life. has had such a glorious past, and can endure such loneliness, which is worthy of respect, especially since he also enjoys this kind of poor life.
"Alright, Pierce. You don't have to be like this bad water boy, he is right, how many historical ups and downs. Immerse yourself in the gossip of the fishermen. We are now only a class of 'dead' and are guilty of making a big deal to prove ourselves on these issues. Auerbach seemed to be consoling, but also reassuring. Look at this protégé who has been following him unswervingly since he joined the army. Auerbach was full of apologies.
The fame of power has a fascinating charm, but it doesn't hurt at all. Nowhere is this more evident than in Auerbach's case. The events of the year started because of him, and people like Pierce who had great respect and respect for him were like countless carp crossing the river, and they can still be seen now except for Pierce. There is almost nothing else. As soon as he thought of this, Auerbach, who felt that he had seen it, also felt a faint pain in his heart.
"! I kicked the steel plate this time. You are a living legend. Presumably, the mind will not be so narrow-minded, and I generally see that it is a failure. Don't say those words to kill me and vent your anger, that's immature. Head Cao touched his nose with a strange expression, and said with a smile.
Originally, Auerbach and Pierce were still quite sentimental, and they were suddenly made to cry and laugh by Captain Cao's words that wanted to cover up, and they didn't mean to shy away from looking at Captain Cao horizontally and vertically. This guy is going to be scared? Unless you're blind. But I have to admit that this guy also has a hand for gags.
"Are you satisfied now? If you're really smart enough, you should be able to listen to the benign Jianyì. We have no grievances with you, and there is no need to harm you. Auerbach stood up and opened the window a little. While the spring breeze blowing through the hall blew away the smoke, it also blew away the sentimental atmosphere.
"That's not good! It's a matter of principle...... "Head Cao stiffened his mouth, but his eyes were obviously still flickering.
"Say, what do you think. You must have wanted to talk to me about some conditions or something. Auerbach was a little surprised by the vagaries of the big back, and he looked at Captain Cao's gaze as if he were looking at a naughty child. After a pause, he continued: "I won't agree if it's too much, you know this." And I can tell from your eyes that you are not the kind of ruthless character you yourself say kills people without blinking. I've seen people like you, unless it touches your psychological bottom line, otherwise you will never be so ruthless. ”
Auerbach's breezy words made Captain Cao's heart cold. This is the ability of these old monsters, and it is also the feeling that Captain Cao dislikes the most to be seen through. It is completely conceivable that from the moment Captain Cao sat in front of him, he had been watching Captain Cao sing a one-man show for a long time. The incredulous and frightened appearance before was all pretended by this old man, and needless to say, his purpose was to keep a distance from Captain Cao. It's just that the old man obviously didn't expect that Captain Cao's trash talk stinked so much, and he was stunned to stimulate Pierce's heart.
"Well, some people don't have to expire. Since everyone is here to meet, it is impossible for you, as a senior in the rivers and lakes, not to support and take care of the backwards. My idea is very simple, you will do your best to assist our raiding group, and in the future, you will eat and drink spicy food, which is indispensable. Head Cao immediately confessed.
He has done so many bad things, in addition to testing the identity of this mysterious person, it is nothing more than to see if there is any possibility of real cooperation. Now that the purpose has been achieved, the identity is tentatively revealed, and they are the same as Auerbach said, they have no grievances with Captain Cao, and they will not have any impact on Commander Cao's work. All that's left is to see if these two talented people can help the raiders match their identities. Captain Cao's cunning has always been pervasive. Even inadvertently, the goods began to cast a wide net.
"And this disgruntled guy, you'd better let him do his best to follow our looting group to do just business. Captain Cao pointed at Pierce again, which immediately caused Pierce to almost bring up a duel again.
Auerbach's face jumped, this big back is really a master of chaos. As soon as they came, they asked them to help with all their hearts, and there were some empty checks, so why should they have such a big face?
"I've been old a long time ago, and I don't want to get involved in too many things, how much can you expect an old man to do? I don't dare to say my best, I can only say that when I can give advice, I will sincerely put it forward, and nothing else can be done. As for Pierce, he is not my servant, and whether he wants it or not depends on his will, and I have no right to call the shots for him. Auerbach only threw out such a remark, and the same is true for Commander Cao to accept it, and it is also the same thing for not accepting it.
Could it be that they are unwilling to help, and Captain Cao still has the ability to persecute them? They don't have the handle in the hands of Commander Cao, and it is impossible for Commander Cao to lead them by the nose.
"Deal!" Captain Cao didn't say a word, and grinned. Not everything can maximize the benefits, especially when dealing with this kind of sophisticated people, this is the best choice.
What is what Commander Cao lacks now? What he lacks is the experience of crawling around in this place. And this aspect is closely related to the development of the raiding group. There is an unfathomable old monster at home here, not to mention the experience of this exiled domain, I am afraid that this old man has a unique opinion on the entire Pan-American continent.
I don't like to deal with old monsters, but Captain Cao also yearns for the kind of days when there is an old man in the family. A person like Auerbach, even if he goes, is an out-and-out big man, and countless people will flock to him to praise his stinky feet. If the raiding group can bump into such a number one person here, it will be a big luck.
If he is unwilling to give advice, even if he is willing to give a few words, it can make Captain Cao take a lot of detours. Before, Captain Cao said that he was going to do something big to make life miserable, but it was just a temptation.
The old man immediately objected, and it was evident that he was very merciful in his heart, as in the legend. Such a person, no matter how he thinks about it, will not come to pit Captain Cao and those stupid and stupid rough men.
More help, this head Cao did not give up his thoughts. This is the first time we met, and I don't look like a saint of all beings, and it's normal for others to have reservations.
The blunt knife pulls the meat slowly, which is also a great skill of Captain Cao...... (To be continued)
