Chapter 58 Bang(1/2)
Merridge, hiding at the bottom of the table, saw Xu Liyan's situation clearly, rolled and crawled out, and rushed towards the corner where Zhao Zhengqi was.
During this process, he shouted loudly:
"Explosive!
"He tied up a circle of explosives!"
Zhao Zhengqi and others were far away and blocked by a table, so they could not see the detailed situation on Xu Liyan's side, so they had to ask in a hurry and panic:
"What explosive?"
"What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
To be honest, if they had not seen the situation seem to have been under control, they would have let the bodyguards open the way, rush out of the room, and meet with their own guards without hesitation.
"'Little Mushroom'! Xu Liyan tied a circle of 'Little Mushroom' on his body!" Merridge quickly shared the situation.
The explosives originated from the "Orange" company, with a model of h404. Because of their great power, they were nicknamed "Little Mushroom".
"Shit!" Another noble MP of the Red River race, Francesco, couldn't help but curse.
If a circle of "little mushrooms" explodes, it means that no one will be spared from the conference hall and the corresponding outside area - abnormal people are not included in this ranks.
After a brief chaos, Zhao Zhengqi looked at Odick, Uncle Liu and the "mysterious man" in the burqa, and asked loudly:
"What's going on?
"And, first, first, remove the explosives."
This conversation made him feel a little trembling.
"I am here." The five metal fingers of the mechanical monk Jing Nian slowly removed the explosives tied to Xu Liyan with the highest accuracy under the control of the chip.
He was a little upset now, and he actually made the mistake of "darkness under the light":
In order to be a bodyguard in Wildcake City, I installed some modules that I don’t usually use. I just used this to check whether the nobles and their guards were carrying enough explosives, but I ignored the employer himself.
Odick did not show off his strength, turned his attention to Zhao Zhengqi and explained briefly:
"Not long ago, the 'priest' of the 'anti-intellectual Cult' attack on Lord Xu and was blocked.
"But his purpose is not to assassinate, but to bring closer, eye contact, and 'hypnotize' the Lord Xu, so that he could commit suicide attacks when summoning all the nobles to discuss matters, and remove the top floor of the entire Wild Grass City in one fell swoop."
He didn't confirm the next half sentence until now.
Just assassinating Xu Liyan, there is no need for the "priest" to play so fancy and do a lot of "useless work". His real goal is very big and very difficult.
That is to kill all the great nobles in Wild Grass City!
You should know that Xu Liyan has a mechanical monk who is guarding the pure thoughts. Any way to "hypnosis" through normal channels may be destroyed by "predictions". Moreover, under the eye of "eternal man", the attempt to "hypnosis" is quite easy to discover. At that time, even if you want to escape, you may not be able to escape.
At the same time, no matter what the party attended, everyone else must undergo strict inspections, and only carry pistols and other light firepower that can be hidden on their bodies.
Under various conditions, it is almost impossible to kill all the nobles of Wild Grass City at one time.
There are still enough security measures here.
As for what is the pre-determined goal, it is unknown for the time being.
"Namo Anuttara Samyaksambodhi, it turns out to be like this..." The mechanical monk said in a low voice.
He finally figured out the causes and consequences and various details, and found the real source of the premonition of danger - he thought there would be a second round of assassination.
"It's amazing!" Shang Jianyao was not stingy with his praise.
If he hadn't been holding the "Ice Moss" pistol and confronting the guards dozens of times, he would definitely not have let his applause be absent.
Although Jiang Baimian did not look back, he could imagine that there was a look of admiration on his face.
I admire the "father" for playing so much.
Zhao Zhengqi, Francisco and others barely figured out the truth of the matter, and did not care about the inexplicable remarks of the small characters under Odick, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Such a "senior hunter" came to Wild Grass City. They sent people to inquire about the corresponding situation to the point. They are not unfamiliar with Odick. They have turned their attention to express their gratitude:
"Mr. Odick, right? Thanks to you, otherwise we would have been bombed into the sky."
"We will definitely prepare some thank you in the future."
"Fuck, I have experienced countless storms in my life, but today I almost capsized in the gutter and became a tragic devil. I don't even know who the person who killed me is. Mr. Odick, let's be close to each other. When this matter is over, I must visit my manor."
"When the order in the city is restored, the believers of the 'anti-intellectualism' will be captured as soon as possible and burned to death in the central square!"
While they were talking, the mechanical monk Jing Nian had removed the h404 explosive from Xu Liyan's body and grabbed it in his hand together with the black remote control.
He originally wanted to transfer these high-risk items to another place and keep them away from the conference hall, but after looking at Xu Liyan, he gave up this idea.
Qualified bodyguards should not leave their employer more than three meters away.
"Who took them out?" Jing Nian raised her arm and asked with an electronic synthesized sound.
Wild Grass City is located on the edge of the monk wasteland. Everyone present is not unfamiliar with mechanical monks. At this time, they could roughly guess Jing Nian's identity, but after looking at the string of explosives and remote controls, they all chose to remain silent.
Obviously, no noble would downgrade himself to do this, and sending bodyguards would weaken the defense around them. As for summoning the guards, it was not in line with the rules, but it was easy to trigger unnecessary chain reactions - making other great nobles think that someone was going to take the opportunity to make the enemy.
Besides, do you know if that pile of explosives has other remote controls? What if the "priest" and his accomplices are hiding in the city lord's mansion, and the time comes, press the switch?
At that time, whoever holds the explosives will not even be left with ashes!
Of course, it is their consensus to transfer dangerous goods as soon as possible.
With similar thoughts, they looked at Odick again, hoping that he could get his hands on doing this.
Before they could speak, Shang Jianyao volunteered:
"I'll do it!"
He was quite interested in that large bunch of "little mushrooms".
"Okay!" "Good!" All the nobles present passed unanimously and signaled the guards to put down their weapons and not to confront each other again.
Shang Jianyao quickly walked towards the mechanical monk Jingnian, and stretched out his left hand to take the pile of things.
Then, he poked out his right palm and posed for a front shaking hand.
Jing Nian was stunned for a moment, stretched out her right hand made of metal skeleton in a daze, and shook it with Shang Jianyao.
"Zen Master, you will definitely like it when you hear a song later." Shang Jianyao said enthusiastically.
If the situation wasn't quite serious, Jiang Baimian really wanted to raise his hand to cover his face.
The mechanical monk Jingnian didn't know how to answer for a while, but fortunately, Zhao Zhengqi helped him get rid of the situation:
"Now I can wake up the city lord, and only he knows some details."
Odick had no objection and nodded to Jingnian.
The mechanical monk Jingnian immediately grabbed Xu Liyan's shoulder and shook it.
Shang Jianyao was watching with great enthusiasm, but because he was holding dangerous items, he was unanimously asked to go out as soon as possible.
He had no choice but to move his foot and lean towards the door inch by inch.
Two or three seconds later, Xu Liyan woke up.
He was confused at first, then hurriedly lowered his head and looked at his waist.
"Lord Xu, you have been hypnotized by the 'priest'." Odick reminded him.
Xu Liyan's expression changed repeatedly, and he leaned back on the back of the chair as if he was exhausted:
“I remembered…
"When I cleaned, the sound of 'bombing them' and 'bombing them' sounded in my mind, and then, I found a pile of explosives from the secret arsenal in the room..."
After the attempt failed and the truth was told, his "hypnosis" effect was eliminated.
"City Lord, it's not that I'm relying on my seniority. I'll be more cautious in doing things in the future and don't always run to the Hunter Guild." After hearing this, Zhao Zhengqi taught a lesson in insincerely.
Xu Liyan cheered up and ignored this. He looked at the guard outside the door and said murderously:
"Tell Sun Xuefeng that once the team is organized, it will immediately launch a counterattack and strive to push those wilderness wanderers out of the city within an hour."
Seeing that the alarm had been lifted, Merridge and others relaxed, walked back to the long table and expressed their opinions:
"Yes, those damn beasts, I don't know how many things they broke. I just hope they didn't waste the supplies too hard."
"We have all grown our own food with great effort. Why should we take advantage of them? It is all about being kind to heaven to give some of them the opportunity to be slaves."
"Can't they stay outside the city honestly and quietly, waiting for other slave-catching teams in the 'first city' to come?"
"Who told them not to stock up on food and who can starve to death?"
"I don't think I can just push them out of the city and not teach them some cruel lessons. They will still dare to do so in the future!"
"It's a troublesome to keep it. It's better to find some ways to not waste bullets."
With a long talk, Zhao Zhengqi and others pointed their finger at the aftermath strategy proposed by Xu Liyan:
"The city lord, you can't be a woman's kindness."
"Even if you need relief, you can't give it to you for nothing. Don't those citizens still have real estate, shops, and furniture? Can they take it out and change food..."
