Chapter Twenty-Four: The Guards
Hearing the piercing doorbell, Uncle Wang, the old housekeeper of the Feng family, couldn't help but sigh, "This day has finally arrived!"
Uncle Wang never dreamed that the Feng family, who was one of the top ten richest families in France, would also fall into such a field.
Speaking of which, all of this is due to the virtual network community "Gun Grave" that the Feng family is fully committed to.
From R&D to launch and operation, the "Gun Grave" has almost exhausted the wealth accumulated by the Feng family for generations.
After the official operation of the "Gun Grave", the high maintenance costs pushed the Feng family to the point of exhaustion.
From the top hill houses in Marseille to the mansions of Bordeaux and now the shabby villas of Rouen.
Uncle Wang can be said to have watched the Feng family decline step by step.
The old lady Feng Yingci, who is in charge, is so stubborn that at least ten of the world's big chaebols have asked her to discuss the acquisition of the "Gun Tomb", but she didn't even blink an eyelid, and all of them refused.
Some investors who were willing to come to the door were also scared away by Mrs. Feng's rigid conditions: first, they could not touch a single grass or tree in the "Gun Tomb", and they could not change the world setting of the "Gun Tomb"; second, any of the rules formulated in the Gun Tomb were absolutely not allowed to be changed.
It was in this situation that Mrs. Feng was still struggling to support the operation of the Gun Tomb for five years, just when the Feng family was in debt to the critical point of collapse, because the competitors and light spectators who entered the Gun Tomb this year began to show a slight upward trend, a multinational super investment company SLX, finally agreed to provide a huge amount of investment funds, so that the Feng family, which was already unsustainable, could continue to operate the Gun Tomb.
At the same time, France's largest network content provider, the legend has a background in the underworld and the white road Reas chaebol suddenly found Mrs. Feng, hoping that Mrs. Feng would give up the investment and close the Gun Tomb, on the grounds that Reas has been researching for many years and is about to launch a "virtual network" that is very similar to the Gun Tomb, and after the Gun Tomb is closed, the Reas Chaebol will compensate a huge amount of money to the Feng family.
"Grandma, Uncle Wang brought them over. The dark-haired girl reminded softly.
In the small reception room, Feng Yingci, who was sitting in a black professional suit, nodded, "Got it, let them in." β
"Grandma, do you want to wait a little longer. The well-behaved black-haired girl knew that Feng Yingci was very nervous at the moment, although the old man was wearing a professional suit that she hadn't worn for ten years, but she didn't have the sharpness to negotiate around ten years ago, because this time it was the powerful Reas chaebol, their goal was very clear, to close the gun tomb, and Feng Yingci also knew that she had no bargaining chips to compete with them.
"No, the time to come will come. Feng Yingci took a deep breath.
The cautious Uncle Wang led three arrogant black suits into the reception room, Feng Yingci's face immediately hung a "firm" smile on her face when she retreated behind the scenes to negotiate around, and the black-haired girl behind her sighed softly, this smile was too reluctant.
After a moment of greetings, the beard with a meaty face went straight to the point, "What is the gun tomb closed?"
"Gun graves are not considered to be closed. Feng Yingci replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Old woman, do you know what the result of going against the Reas chaebol?" the bearded man opened his mouth wide and looked like he was going to eat people.
"I don't know. Feng Yingci shook his head.
"We, the Reas plutocracy, can let anyone sit through the prison in France, or throw anyone off the Eiffel Tower, you have to think about it. β
"I think about it very clearly, the Gun Tomb is a world created by my grandfather and his old man, and it is also my grandfather's persistence, no matter what, I will not close it. Feng Yingci took another deep breath.
"You damn old woman, don't know what to do......"
"Willie, calm down. Three Chinese polite blonde glasses men stopped the bearded furious, and sneered, "Everyone is a civilized person, our Reas is a very reasonable company, after closing the gun grave, we will not only pay off all your debts for you, but also provide a sum of money for your retirement, if you insist on going your own way, I am afraid that your old man will be sad for the rest of his life." β
Facing the bearded man and the blonde man with glasses singing and harmonizing, Feng Yingci sneered and was silent.
"We know that Gun Grave is going to get a venture from SLX soon, but don't be naΓ―ve enough to think you can bet on it. The blonde man with glasses said gloomily.
"Gun grave is currently on the rise, and after getting this venture capital, it will definitely be profitable in the near future. Feng Yingci said firmly, "Therefore, there is absolutely no need for us to close the Gun Tomb." β
"What if we don't let you get this venture capital?" said the blond-haired man with glasses smiling cruelly.
"Although Reas has a strong influence in France, it is not big enough to influence the direction of investment in the multinational SLX. Feng Yingci said in a deep voice.
"We can't influence SLX's strategy, but we can make the gun grave devalue instantly, and in this case, this venture capital is probably not going to be in place until you close your eyes. The blonde-eyed man smirked.
"The Gun Grave depreciates instantly? This can't happen, the system of the Gun Grave is very stable, and hacker attacks can't play a big role. β
"What if Juggernaut slaughters the island in the Grave of Guns?"
"If the Juggernaut attacks outside the arena, although it is not limited by the series, the entire series of the Gun Tomb will therefore enter emergency mode, and other swordsmen in the Gun Tomb City can also fight back, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, and a Juggernaut can't make any waves. β
"How many Juggernauts are there in the Gun Grave now?"
"It's a trade secret. Feng Yingci clearly felt from the blonde glasses man's confident expression that the Reas chaebol's sabotage plan for the gun tomb had been frozen for three feet.
"Don't you say it, I'll tell you, there are a total of forty-six Sword Saints in the Gun Tomb, and thirty-one of them have been employed by us before they entered the virtual community, since your old man toasts and doesn't eat, eat and drink, the thirty-one Sword Saints and the Island Slaughter Storm plan will be launched in ten minutes!" said the blonde-haired man with glasses with a grin. Another point to note is that we in YΓ‘rez have applied to the French government for 30 minutes of self-freezing of the system in Gun Grave on the pretext of testing viruses for the virtual network for free, and from now on, you, as the operator, will not be able to control everything in Gun Grave. β
Feng Yingci's face turned pale with a "brush", and her body was shaky.
"Grandma. The black-haired girl hurriedly helped Feng Yingci.
Thirty-one Sword Saints teamed up to slaughter the island, and if such a storm that was enough to cause heavy damage to the entire Gun Tomb occurred, it would have an extremely bad impact on the operation of the Gun Tomb, and the risk investment of SLX would naturally not be in place for a long time, in this case, the Feng family, which was already at the end of the strong crossbow, would definitely not be able to support it anymore.
"No, you can't ...... like this," Feng Yingci shook his head incessantly.
"You chose the road yourself, and now you will have nothing, and if you promised to close the Gun Grave before, maybe you will be able to live out your old age in peace. The blonde man with glasses walked away coldly with a beard and another man in a black suit.
"No, how can they ...... like this," Feng Yingci muttered to herself.
"Grandma. β
"How could things have come to this, I worked so hard, worked so hard, spent my whole life guarding the world created by my grandfather, but I fell to this step, I'm really useless......" A mouthful of blood spurted out of Feng Yingci's mouth, and her body fell heavily to the ground.
"Grandma!" the black-haired girl let out a heart-rending cry.
Gun Grave, Central Square.
Thirty-one men, women, and children dressed in different costumes, but all carrying the "black gold sword", which symbolizes the status of the sword master, appear together.
For the world's seventh-ranked killer group "Infinity", it is the first time and the last time to send thirty-one top killers into the virtual network community at the same time to lurk for two years.
Gun graves, black coastline.
Lu Xuan, who was sitting on the rocky reef, was looking at the place where the sea and the sky were communicating, thinking about something.
"Xiao Xuan, I got a shocking news leaked by a certain chaebol from the pinnacle hacker forum, a plan of dozens of sword saints to join forces to slaughter the island will soon occur in the central square of the gun tomb, I advise you to avoid it. The general interrupted Lu Xuan's contemplation.
Lu Xuan didn't ask why, just stood up, "How long is it?"
"Five minutes. β
"I see. Lu Xuan took off the novice iron sword he was carrying on his back, held it tightly in his hand, and rushed towards the central square of the island desperately.
That memory resurfaced in Lu Xuan's mind.
"Master, what are you drawing?"
"The blueprint, the blueprint of a world I want to create. β
"The master has to go out every day to find someone to fight, how can he have time to create his own world?"
"Well, anyway, I'll do it myself. β
"That's the best, but if the master doesn't do it myself, I will definitely do it for the master, because the master's dream is my dream. β
"This ......"
"Then master, we have made up our minds. β
The black clouds were churning and dancing, and they quickly converged over the grave of guns.
"Apprentice, this time our world will be guarded by me. β
When Lu Xuan stood in front of the thirty-one sword saints with the novice iron sword, suddenly a bolt of lightning illuminated the entire world in snow-white.
At one o'clock in the morning, the soldier is now, in the hotel in the field, borrowing a colleague's laptop, and typing the new chapter at a rapid pace, and the soldier will return to Shanghai tomorrow night, I don't know if the new chapter can be updated in time tomorrow morning, no matter what, everyone's ticket will give me motivation.
