Arrowless arrows.

Xu Jiang had heard of it once and experienced it for a while.

According to Sun Ping, his father Sun Wenzhan was killed by an arrowless arrow.

And after that, Xu Jiang was also assassinated by an arrowless arrow, but he escaped with the help of his [Golden Body].

It just so happened that the assassination was accompanied by the siege of him by the Faceless Crowd.

Therefore, Xu Jiang always thought that the mysterious man with a bow and arrow belonged to the Faceless Crowd.

Now it seems that there is another force at work.

Assassinate the leader of Northern Xinjiang City, assassinate Xu Jiang, and design to attack Yong'an City, if Xu Jiang hadn't come here unexpectedly today, I'm afraid he would have really escaped by that mysterious person.

After all, [Arrowless Arrow] is not a unique skill, and some arrows with special characteristics can also achieve similar effects.

Even if he confesses truthfully after being arrested, I am afraid that he will not receive much attention, and will only think that this is exonerating himself.

But Xu Jiang knew that there was indeed a powerful archer who could kill Sun Wenzhan and make him feel the suffocation of death.

"How did he get in touch with you?"

"An invitation letter that was placed directly in my safe." The middle-aged man's name is Dong Lisong, and he is the boss of the entire Storm Military Industry.

can put the invitation in his safe without knowing it, this means and strength have to make him pay attention to it.

On the day of the meeting, many people came, and many of them chose to hide their identities, naturally, some people were not convinced.

But just as he wanted to leave, he was killed by an arrow from that man.

His bow was silver, spread like a cicada's wings, and was inexplicably engraved with seals. When the bow sounded, the world seemed to tremble, and then the man died. ”

Dong Lisong's description is exactly the same as the attack Xu Jiang experienced, and there is no doubt that it is the same person.

"Did he introduce his name?"

"No, but [Yanshi] was also present that day, and when he saw the bow, he muttered in a low voice: It turned out to be you."

It turned out to be you?

It seems that [Yanshi] recognized the identity of the other party, so he chose to cooperate.

With the neuroticism of [Yanshi], she will not wear a cloak on any occasion, and because of this character, the one who can make her cooperate obediently will definitely not be an ordinary person.

Xu Jiang tapped on the armrest of the sofa, his eyes were indifferent: "So you know whether there are faceless people involved, and you obediently cooperate with strangers?" ”

"Because...... The temptation is just too great. Dong Lisong rubbed his face with his hands, and his eyes were full of remorse.

Storm Military Industry was once glorious, but unfortunately it fell later.

The reason for the despair is that the spiritual realm they rely on suddenly disappeared one day and became the current electronic garbage dump.

And this time, when they went to the conference, they saw the opportunity again.

The organizers, who did not make him pay any price, on the contrary, they also received a lot of resources.

It's like giving it away for nothing, so that the strength of the Storm Military Industry has soared all the way in just two years, which gave them the intention of seizing power.

"Actually, we have already considered the problem of the Faceless, you can go and check the battle report, we also targeted the Faceless when we bombed the Yongan Building."

"Really? But you have killed more civilians than faceless. ”

What is the difference between atonement for sins in wanton killing and caring people saving dogs and then turning around and opening a dog meat shop?

"Name all the lists of forces you know." The little secretary behind him suddenly spoke.

Looking at the headset she had just put on, constantly flashing lights, it was obvious that this sentence was conveyed by the Rabbit City Lord.

Dong Lisong didn't dare to be ambiguous, and opened his mouth to read a few names silently.

But the little secretary shook his head: "What you said, the special service team has already found out, and we want a list of forces outside the city." ”

"Out-of-town forces?" Dong Lisong was stunned: "I didn't know that there were forces from outside the city participating. ”

"Impossible, if there is no intervention from the forces of the outer city, how can you know about the alternate secret passage at the bottom."

Yong'an's huge loss this time is also because of the rabbit's underestimation.

There are two paths to the Abyss.

One is the channel used by scientific researchers on weekdays, and the rabbit is worried that there will be insiders being bought, so a lot of protection has been done in advance.

Unexpectedly, the Faceless Crowd walked on a different path.

And that channel is the record channel made by Rabbit in the Six Cities Alliance.

If an accident happens to him one day, the administrators of the other five cities will bear the seal of the [Pandora's Gate], which is the last emergency entrance.

Only rabbits know about the entire Yong'an, and there are no more than ten in the world.

This is also the reason why the rabbit suspects that there is an out-of-town intervention, and who revealed this information is very crucial.

"But we didn't want to go to the bottom in the first place! Our goal is to occupy the Wing On Building. Dong Lisong told the truth.

Judging from the form of battle, Jiuchuan and other mercenaries are only responsible for making trouble, with no purpose at all, and they are pure cannon fodder.

Storm Military wanted to replace the city lord and attacked the upper floors of the Yongan Building in one go.

The Faceless Ones, on the other hand, have a clear goal and are directed at the [Dark God Machine].

"So...... What about the target of the mysterious archer? And what is it? Xu Jiang raised his own questions.

As the organizer of the entire war, what is the ultimate purpose of this mysterious force's painstaking planning for Yong'an?

No one can answer this question.

Xu Jiang's eyes flickered a few times, and he gave Dong Lisong a look: "Let all your subordinates go out, I have something to say to you alone." ”

Dong Lisong's cronies instantly became nervous, if they went out, what if Xu Jiang made a move?

"Go out, Xu Jiang really wants to attack me, and you can't stop it." Dong Lisong is worthy of being the leader of one party's forces, and he still has this courage.

Wave your hand and let all your subordinates leave.

Light yourself a cigarette and take a deep breath: "They're gone, what do you want to talk about?" ”

Xu Jiang smiled slightly: "Talk about the methods that can keep you alive." ”

……

The bodyguards who were kicked out of the conference room were all waiting anxiously outside the door.

To be able to follow the storm military industry to this point, all the people present were loyal subordinates, and they were very worried that Xu Jiang would be unfavorable to their boss.

Fortunately, after a cup of tea, Xu Jiang and the others came out, and looking at the relaxed expression, there should not be a fierce conflict.

Xu Jiang just reminded in front of everyone: "Boss Dong, remember our agreement and hand over your property in Yong'an to the special service team." ”

"Got it." Dong Lisong's face was very calm, he couldn't see his joy or anger, it should have been a smooth negotiation, and everyone in the storm military industry breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, it was right to find Xu Jiang, no one wanted to die if he could live.

Of course, the most unhappy thing in the audience was the poisonous rats.

Ying Xiaoxiao beckoned to the two mascots: "Ye Zi, Xiaozhen, you also come here, the third lady said let's take a few more photos of the battlefield and go back, and you can also take a photo." ”

“1、2、3……”

Click!

The people of the seventeenth group, plus the fun of the mouse, took pictures around the poisonous rats, and it was foreseeable that he would make headlines tomorrow morning.

The iconic crab prosthetic leg, the face is useless.

He thought about refusing, but Ying Xiaoxiao's spear didn't leave his hand, and it was really terrifying, so he could only lie on the ground aggrieved, looking at Xu Jiang and asking for help.

It's a pity that Xu Jiang didn't have time to pay attention to him.

Picked up the communicator and chatted with the rabbit city lord.

"I said Lord Castle! I've helped you solve a big problem, are you considering borrowing some money from me? ”

"Borrow money?" The Rabbit City Lord was a little strange: "You are about to become a billionaire, and you still want to ask me to borrow money?" ”

"Billions of fart, what you gave me is a dividend, at least next month."

Xu Jiang is indeed going to become a rich man, but that will be later.

He had an agreement with the rabbit to help deal with the Black Ring crisis, and the redstone crystal mine produced there would make a profit of four or six percent.

Xu Jiang takes four copies, but he doesn't need to worry about operational problems;

The rabbit takes six shares, and also needs to be responsible for management, mining, sales, and the establishment of a base in the future, which is a happy situation.

But this money is not so easy to get.

"Not next month, it's expected to be 3 months." The rabbit postponed the time of dividends by three times.

"Isn't it, you black-hearted rabbit, you want to pay your bills?"

"Of course not, but there's a giant redstone tortoise in Redstone Town, and the special service team can't handle it, at least I have to come out of retreat."

Xu Jiang recalled that there was indeed such a terrifying big turtle there, and the cleaning up work of the special service team was probably hindered.

"Otherwise, you lend me money, and I'll help you deal with that big turtle."

"Huh? What are your strengths to deal with that big turtle? ”

"Not right now, but it should be fine in a few days, I need money to advance."

Xu Jiang's words made the rabbit startled: "Advanced!" But the second-order spirit realm hasn't opened yet, how can you advance? ”

"It's not a career advancement, it's my mecha advancement, this thing is very expensive!"

……

If you don't have money, don't play mechas, this sentence is the more terrifying you go.

Xu Jiang got enough spirit seed fragments and began to ask for the materials that Qianji needed.

Qianji's reply was, "General, which direction do you choose?"

"Strengthen the mecha and use the heavy mecha as a benchmark to exert greater strength, but lose mobility;"

"Or increase your speed to ......"

"Stop, needless to say, I'll do it all." Xu Jiang clenched his fists.

"Good general, what a wise choice, then...... Please gather the following documents."

Xu Jiang had already predicted Qianji's thoughts.

This good subordinate who is sympathetic to the commander will always use a more tactful way to express that she is very money-burning.

But what woman has a lot of money? What's wrong with buying a new dress for your own woman?

I'm backed by Jiuchuan Group, how expensive can a new dress be?

[Congratulations, Qianji has opened the road to advancement. 】

[Spirit Seed Shard: 4/4]

Rune Steel: 0/10

[Secret Meteorite: 0/3]

[Heterocrystal: 0/50000]

[Level 60 Power Mech (Pink Quality): 0/1]

Xu Jiang: ???

Even a shameless person like Xu Jiang was embarrassed to open his mouth to the Jiuchuan Group when he saw these materials.

Rune gold steel, secret meteorite, level 60 pink mecha not to mention, the kind that has no price.

Just look at the valuable isosquare crystal, 50,000 pieces, what is this concept? Converted into credits, that's 10 billion.

Thinking about it, it seems that after entering Jiuchuan, he has been busy with his own affairs.

On the surface, he was a member of the wilderness hunting group, but in fact, he had never even hunted a wild beast, and he didn't earn half a cent for Jiuchuan.

Now, let the Jiuchuan Group come up with billions to help him build a set of mechas? Or is it the kind with unknown effect, is it really willing?

"I'll go to the teacher and ask how much investment Jiuchuan is willing to give me. It's not enough, I'll borrow some from you. ”

Xu Jiang didn't know the bottom in his heart, so he first found the rabbit city lord to talk.

But this time, the rabbit city lord was surprisingly generous: "Otherwise, don't ask, I'll borrow you directly, no, I'll give you directly." ”

"Send me!" Xu Jiang was shocked, you rabbit who usually picks the door, this time you suddenly talked better?

"The usual reward and encouragement is just that I want to give you experience. Xu Jiang! You haven't understood where you stand now. ”

"My status? What status, am I not a member of Group 17? ”

"No, you're my successor."

Xu Jiang: !!

"Is there any mistake, when did I say I was going to take over your shift?"

"Whether you have thought about it or not, in the eyes of many people, your prestige is second only to mine."

"What do you mean? Do you want to be lonely? ”

"That's right, if one day, I am unfortunately defeated and killed, then you are the heir of the city lord of Yong'an."

Prestige, something invisible, but very solemn.

The Rabbit City Lord didn't say it, but in recent times, he has been referring to his name and letting Xu Jiang make decisions, which is cultivating Xu Jiang's prestige.

Breaking through the shackles is imminent, and many high-level forces have heard of this matter.

But as soon as the shackles are broken, it means that the counterattack of the rabbit city lord will begin.

In this battle, life and death are unpredictable.

It was also at this time that the city lord began to spare no effort to cultivate Xu Jiang, and it was obvious that there was a meaning of entrusting the orphan.

This is also the reason why the third lady and they, from beginning to end, did not disturb the development of the seventeenth group.

Once Xu Jiang takes over, then the entire Jiuchuan Group will also rise, and that is the real take-off.

Things have developed to this point, and it is no longer a question of whether Xu Jiang wants to take over, but once the rabbit dies in battle, he will take it if he doesn't take it.

Except for him, no one can suppress the bull ghosts and snake gods of Yong'an, you can't watch the chaos in Yong'an City.

"I ...... Don't worry, rabbit! You called me when you went on the expedition, in fact, I am very strong, I can help you, don't send you to death! ”

"Rest assured, I'm not that vulnerable. I just want to tell you that your current prestige is enough for Jiuchuan to go bankrupt for you. ”

The rabbit's click made Xu Jiang wake up.

Although the awards I receive on weekdays seem to be of no use at all, those are the credit ratings of the loans.

Xu Jiang hung up the phone, rushed back to Jiuchuan non-stop, and found Uncle Lei.

"Teacher, my mecha is about to advance."

"Advanced? That's great! How can I help you? ”

"I need money, a lot of money. I'm going to borrow it from the lord of the castle. ”

"Borrowing from the city lord? No way. Before Uncle Lei could speak, the third lady on the side was excited first.

"You are our Jiuchuan people, we will be responsible for everything you have to the end, no matter how much money you have, we Jiuchuan can afford it."

Look, the third lady is domineering.

Without investment, there is no return, and it is more cost-effective to send charcoal to Xu Jiang at this moment than to take money to invest in the scientific research department.

Almost as soon as the application was made, the three directors of Jiuchuan Group jointly passed: help Xu Jiang advance at all costs.

For this reason, Xu Jiang was still very moved.

Although I can feel that Jiuchuan Group is also making profits, but being able to do this does indeed make Xu Jiang invited.

For a time, the high-level leaders of Jiuchuan rushed one after another.

The auction house, the black market, the city bureau, and the chaos everywhere are just to find materials for Xu Jiang.

I have to say that his luck was very good, just when he was still at a loss to find the whole city, the blue-skinned monster Pace appeared.

"You want to buy rune gold? Xu Jiang asked for it, right, after all, these materials are the advanced materials of our Divine Lantern Clan's battle armor. Don't worry, I'll send it to you for free. ”

The third advance of a thousand machines is finally coming.
