Chapter 680: The Hideousness That Was Accidentally Revealed
(Sorry, deleted and changed, Carvin all day.) οΌ
"Sure enough, the family that can exist for so many years will not be a charitable sheep!" Zhang Hao put down the telegram in his hand, and was very emotional about the information sent by Zhao Yuhang.
This information came very timely, because today, Zhang Hao was going to formally negotiate and cooperate with the representatives of the 12 families - and Zhang Hao was originally very intentional.
But at this time, Zhang Hao was more vigilant.
At the moment when he stepped out of the office, Zhang Hao suddenly stopped, and a faint emotion suddenly rose in his heart:
MyselfγChanged!
At the beginning, when he first came to this world, Zhang Hao wanted to change the world, make this world better, and let himself be remembered in history.
But now, what I think is that I am history, I want to live forever, and it is good to change the world, but if I can control it......
"People, they always change!" Zhang Hao shook his head.
But then Zhang Hao's eyes sharpened, because of Zhao Yuhang's information, some faint questions in Zhang Hao's heart finally sprouted:
12 The family was founded over a period of more than 100,000 years, how could they accept themselves so easily?
Considering the first 'dream' and domineering, Zhang Hao's heart became deeper and deeper.
Recently, the 12 families have behaved so 'friendly', I'm afraid it's just because they don't know what kind of power the Ocean Group has. And the reason why this cooperation is so 'hasty' is because this is not cooperation, this is ...... Test!
If you think about it, you can understand that this world of brackets has a history of more than 100,000 years, and it is impossible to give birth to 12 ancient families. Where did the rest go?
These 12 families, I'm afraid they want to wipe out the Dayang Group and then develop it themselves!
The older the family, etc., the less they believe in cooperation - they have experienced too many betrayals, etc., and even betrayals within the family. Good things, you must hold them in your own hands!
Once a gap was opened, Zhang Hao's thoughts were like a river bursting its embankment, pouring for thousands of miles. Many things that I used to be confused and always couldn't grasp the main point suddenly figured it out.
These families, which have existed for hundreds of thousands, are definitely not good people.
If you think about it carefully, since the first meeting, they have always had a tentative attitude towards Dayang Group, tentative and tempting.
Also, this time, the 12 families actually sent a messenger so good at talking? Suddenly, Zhang Hao had a feeling of luring a wolf into the room!
After pondering for a while, Zhang Hao immediately called, found Fu Yun and Murong Shan, and asked the two to prepare.
As for Huang Wentian, Zhimin and Miao Hongyun, Zhang Hao did not notify them. These three people were now accompanying the representatives of the 12 families, and if the three of them, or any of them, were to be called away immediately, the representatives of those families would be vigilant. Zhang Hao didn't dare to underestimate these guys.
Then Zhang Hao once again re-examined the whereabouts of the representatives of the 12 families these days. When Zhang Hao looked at the information on these whereabouts with suspicion, he found a lot of problems.
The most they visited were not some libraries, stock trading centers, business centers, etc., of the Dayang Group, and even the Huashen Technology Research Center.
The most visited are the production line, assembly workshop, shipbuilding base, and even visited the "Dayang Group Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Pill, and Microbial Research Center" jointly established by Dayang Group and other holy places, and I almost couldn't go back!
"They are more concerned about the ...... of the Ocean Group But their cooperation with the Ocean Group is focused on warships and fleets. Nothing else has been mentioned so far.
Although it is not completely certain, it is at least certain that these 12 families are attracted to become the 13th family or something, but I am afraid that ...... Very fake!
Sure enough, the number 13 naturally has an unlucky ingredient!
Cultivation is about the Heavenly Dao, and there is an important component of the Heavenly Dao called 'Destiny'. And 13 is the more negative number!"
Zhang Hao just moaned a little meaninglessly in the end.
Then Zhang Hao tidied up his appearance, nodded to the secretary, and stepped into the highest-level conference room on the top floor of the headquarters of Dayang Group. Or rather, 'conference hall' is more appropriate.
At this time, it was 10 a.m., and the bright sunlight was shining directly through the completely transparent dome. But the operation of the formation in the hall kept it warm and comfortable, and there was even a faint coolness, completely offsetting the dry heat of autumn.
In the hall, rows of well-tended flowers and plants, these highly spiritual and exquisite plants, reflect a faint fluorescence in the sun, like a dream.
At this time, Huang Wentian and the others had already arrived with representatives of 12 families and more than 50 people; because Zhang Hao went back to check the information, Zhang Hao was almost ten minutes later than expected.
As soon as Zhang Hao entered the hall, he heard a faint female voice floating, her voice was sweet and clear, but it also carried an indescribable arrogance:
"Mr. Zhang, you're late. I've always heard that you are punctual, but today you were 10 minutes late. I don't know if you've always been like this, or if it's just today?"
Zhang Hao heard this and swallowed back the words of apology. If you apologize, isn't this an admission that you are only late today?
But the smile on Zhang Hao's face did not change in the slightest, it was still so bright, "This fairy must be the Nangong Yue Nangong Daoist of the Suzaku Family."
Because I wanted to meet Nangong Daoyou, I was so excited that I didn't sleep well last night. I hesitated in the office for a long time just now, still thinking about how to leave a deep impression on Fairy Nangong. β
Nangong Yue opened her mouth, and finally could only snort softly. But looking at Zhang Hao's eyes, there was a faint contempt: Master Huahua!
As an arrogant and more traditional cultivation master, Nangong Yue is obviously not suitable for Zhang Hao's almost sprinkling way of speaking.
Zhang Hao was also observing Nangong Yue. Nangong Yue is very beautiful, but this beauty has a feeling that no one should enter. Also, although Nangong Yue is beautiful, the vicissitudes of her eyes and the depth in her eyes are enough to show that she is not young.
According to the news sent back by Huang Wentian and others, this Nangong Yue's age is only afraid to be over five hundred years old. This is a real old immortal.
And just now, Mr. Zhang was angry with such an old immortal......
Zhang Hao generously walked to the direction of the main seat, but did not sit down. Instead, he apologized all around: "Fellow Daoists, I apologize for being late. β
Zhang Hao didn't say anything about his predecessors, even if these people in front of him, the youngest was three hundred years old. Today, Zhang Hao is negotiating on an equal footing.
Under normal circumstances, if you want to enter the stage of transforming into a god, you must be at least seventy or eighty years old, and if you want to enter the peak of transformation into a god, it is a long accumulation process.
Only the Ocean Group can use the immortal qi to catalyze the progress of the masters.
Of course, Zhang Hao is now very wary of these ancient families. These families can even record their history relatively clearly, and can even correct the mistakes of Xianshan's timekeeping, so it is very likely that they have some ancient items.
These ancient objects must be the remnants of advanced civilizations.
As for advanced civilization, Zhang Hao has twelve points of vigilance.
The representative of the Youlong family, or Xiaoshan who came last time, sat in a chair with a big lama, and although his tone was as friendly as possible, there was always an indescribable old-fashioned atmosphere:
"It's understandable that young people like to sleep in. Ha ha...... Zhang Hao, in the past few days, we have visited many places of Dayang Group, which is really eye-opening.
Here, we see the speed of industry.
A textile production line can make a hundred pieces of cloth in just one hour. In the past, it would have required a month's work for hundreds of women.
An iron factory, with an hour's output, can reach the output of tens of thousands of tons of crude iron. Only such a strong output can support the steel ambition of its entire Dayang Group!
We already have a relatively full understanding of Dayang Group. I think it's time for a collaboration. β
Zhang Hao remained silent, "Is this cooperation to find the legendary Xuanhuang Zuzhou?"
A man next to him with a faint Qinglian brand on his eyebrows spoke, "It can't be regarded as a legend." First of all, the name is hardly known to the outside world. Secondly, there has always been the approximate location of Xuanhuang Zuzhou within our 12 families. The exact location could not be determined.
Finally, for the general situation of Xuanhuang Zuzhou, we have a more detailed record here. β
"But this record is more than 100,000 years ago, right?" Zhang Hao pointed out this problem without hesitation.
The man continued: "But at least it's not ignorant and has a certain reference value!"
Zhang Hao nodded: "The information from more than 100,000 years ago...... Well, maybe there is some reference value. But I have a question, with 12 of the ability to protect the family, it should be enough to cross the sea, right? Why are you still trapped on land?
We have also explored the Candle Dragon Continent, and the Candle Dragon Continent does not seem to be a too powerful master, just the kind of master who transforms into the limit of the gods, and even steps on the realm of the law phase with one foot. β
Next to Nangong Yue, a woman in a black Luo skirt spoke: "It's actually very simple, because we don't know that there are other worlds besides Xuanhuang Zuzhou.
And for so many years, we have been putting information on Xuanhuang Zuzhou, but we have not succeeded.
Xuanhuang Zuzhou is actually in the south, a far place in the south. To go south, we need to cross the border, and we call the southern open sea the 'Black Sea'. There, there are still powerful demon beasts.
In the face of the monsters in the sea, there is nothing we can do. I think Zhang Hao should know this aspect best. β
Zhang Hao looked at each other, wearing a long black dress, but instead reflected the other party's hot figure and strange and bewitching, strange charm with a sense of weird depravity and danger.
The monotonous black seemed to reveal a strange brilliance on her.
With such a unique charm, Zhang Hao instantly determined the identity of the other party: "This fairy must be a friend of the Heavenly Demon Family." β
Yutai Minghua nodded coldly.
Zhang Hao also sighed: "For the monsters on the ocean, Dayang Group is indeed deeply touched. For the battle of cultivators, I summarize it into three major elements: time, place, and cultivation. And we fought with the demon beasts at sea, and we lost our geographical advantage first. We don't even have a place to stand. β
"So, we need a foothold. Minghua emphasized that after a pause, he said, "Besides, we need to accumulate strength." Xuanhuang Zuzhou, as the landing place when the advanced civilization came, must have a lot of things left.
There may be too many masters out there, and there may be some powerful war machines. Therefore, we need to leverage the power of the Ocean Group. β
Zhang Hao pondered for a while, and then asked, "I have one last question." That is, all these years, have you always known the information of advanced civilizations and the affairs of Xuanhuang Zuzhou?"
"Of course!" Xiao Shan replied without hesitation.
Zhang Hao showed a strange smile on his face: "Then there is one thing that doesn't make sense." Since you know about advanced civilizations and Xuanhuang Ancestral Continent, why don't you know how to explore the world around you?
I think you still have a map like "The Elephant of the Earth", right?
Even if you can't explore any unknown worlds and Xuanhuang Ancestral Continent, what about the surrounding Immortal Mountains? Why have I never heard of the Immortal Mountain Exploration?
Take a step back, even if the fairy mountain can't be explored. What about Liuli Island in the north! You can't be unaware, it's also a relic of an advanced civilization!"
Zhang Hao's question suddenly made many representatives of the 12 families frown.
At this time, a middle-aged man sitting on Zhang Hao's right hand, who should also be a representative of the 12 family, looked at Zhang Hao quietly, his eyes were a little indescribably coercive, and his tone was indifferent but arrogant: "Zhang Hao, your Dayang Group has only developed for less than ten years, and there are too many things that cannot be touched. But as long as you cooperate with Dayang Group, these questions will naturally be answered for you.
And if you don't have the sincerity to cooperate, and you just want to talk about it, I'm afraid it's ...... will make everyone ...... No, full!"
The other party's posture and the other party's words made Zhang Hao very unhappy. And such a conversation attitude made Zhang Hao faintly understand in his heart: These 12 families have a problem! And the problem is definitely not small!
Zhang Hao's face gradually calmed down and became a little more indifferent, looking around and said lightly: "By the way, I've been talking about it for so long, and I haven't gotten to know everyone well."
Huang Wentian, can you please introduce me? β
Huang Wentian also saw that the situation was wrong at this time, the people of these 12 families were aggressive, and they were not as friendly as they had been in contact with before. But the introducer, it's still no problem.
Huang Wentian began to introduce, and the first thing he said was what he had just said to Zhang Hao, "Mr. Zhang, starting from your right hand, the first one is Zhuge Shao from the Qinglong family, Zhuge ......"
Zhuge Shao suddenly raised his hand and interrupted Huang Wentian's words, his posture had an indescribable majesty: "Zhang Hao, the representatives of our 12 families, came here from afar, not to play tricks with you.
We are here with sincerity, but you Dayang Group seems to be full of all kinds of questions.
I'll just ask: What do you mean by the Dayang Group?
Okay, we'll work together. β
