Chapter 510 Unexpected expansion
After several high-tech ninjas were subdued, Tony squatted down and pulled open one of them with one hand. He saw that there seemed to be an Asian face under the mask. He had been beaten to his nose and swollen face, but his expression was still calm. The man's eyes were almost narrowed into slits, and blood was hanging on the corner of his mouth, saying in Japanese: "I'm defeated."
"Jarvis, what did he say?"
"That's Japanese, he said he gave up, sir."
Tony nodded and said, "It's very good, I'm quite conscious. So, who are you working for?"
"We may have failed, Mr. Stark." The man said lightly, "but the master also told you to bring you a message--you have taken something that does not belong to you, and that is not something you can control. Handing over the cube will be the right choice for both of us and the earth."
Tony was confused: "Wait, first of all, I don't know who your master is. Secondly, I don't understand what the "cube" is like. Are you not the habit of making it clear?"
But the man closed his eyes and no longer planned to speak. A second later, his body suddenly twitched, and white foam spilled out of the corner of his mouth, and he was already dead.
"What?" Tony was shocked and cursed, "Hell, is there such a lunatic? I thought it was only available in this kind of death war movie."
Eric glanced and said, "The other few have died, I guess they have something like potassium cyanide hidden in their teeth."
After a pause, he asked, "He said you took away what belonged to them, and you are sure you don't know anything about it?"
Tony shook his head: "I promise, now I'm as confused as you. I think we can start by finding out who they are, maybe figuring out who they work for can help us figure out what he means..."
"This part can be saved." Eric picked up a sword that these ninjas had just used, reversed the hilt, and showed the pattern on it, "I know this pattern, I have seen it in the database of the watchtower. This sword belongs to the Assassin Alliance, and these high-tech ninjas should also come from the Assassin Alliance, and their so-called masters are probably the legendary ninja master Lei Xiaogu."
Meanwhile, the aim base.
As soon as the event ended, a communication request rang out on Murdoch. He pressed to connect, and the black outline immediately appeared on the screen, and the inviolable majesty penetrated through the screen. Murdoch knew that it was Lei Xiaogu, the rumored power-powered ninja master.
"My man failed." Lei Xiaogu said lightly.
Murdoch snorted: "You just say Avengers, it's not worth worrying about?"
Lei Xiaogu said: "This attempt was mainly for testing. Although my people failed, they also tried something... Stark seemed to say he didn't know anything about the Cube."
Murdoch's heart thumped, as if he felt his lightning-like vision penetrated the screen and shot straight into his body, as if he wanted to see through his soul. But he was calm and snorted and said, "Why, do you rather trust your enemies than your friends?"
Lei Xiaogu said coldly: "Friends? We have never had a similar relationship, we are all. We just got together because of the same interest relationship for the time being, that's all. But if we find that you are lying, then our current relationship status will not be maintained. You know the consequences at that time, so I don't need to say more, right?"
Murdoch narrowed his eyes and said, "I know."
The communication was halted, and the screen returned to darkness again. Murdoch finally relaxed in one breath and gasped. He glanced up casually, but it was fine if he didn't look at it. When he saw it, he was shocked to death. From the reflection of the dark screen in front of him, he saw a figure floating behind him at some point, without any rest, just like a ghost.
Murdoch turned around in fear, and without thinking, his head shot out a red laser beam and whistled straight to the man behind him. However, the man waved his hand calmly, and a faint light flashed through his hand. The laser beam was pulled and deflected in a very strange way. He broke at a 90-degree angle and hit a wall, causing Mars to fly.
Murdoch then saw the person's appearance clearly, and his face turned pale: "Central...center?"
The person who came was the bishop. He wore an ink cloak and looked at Murdoch with a smile on his face. He was powerful without anger. His aura almost involuntarily lost his will to resist.
Murdoch knew that he had violated the rules set by the "Central", and he used his huge resources to complete an unprecedented study, but in the end he was selfish and wanted to take over the results. He heard that the "Central" knew everything and knew the most secret secret of anyone, and the rumors that the consequences of anyone who was found by the "Central" were chilling.
But he still had a trace of luck in his heart, his face remained unchanged, and he asked, "Is there anything I can help?"
The bishop did not speak, but stretched out his right hand, and saw a golden vortex flashing by his palm. A small cube full of blue, releasing a dreamlike brilliance was already lying in his palm, and the dark blue energy inside flowed like flowing water.
Seeing this thing, Murdoch's face suddenly changed: "This...this...this...is impossible! The 'cube' should be there..."
"In the vault you hide underground?" the bishop interjected.
Murdoch had no doubts now. There was a layer hidden underground in this base, and he was the only one who knew about this in the entire Aim. The vault was even encrypted layer by layer, equipped with several sets of the world's top security systems, and almost even mosquitoes could not fly in. But the "center" could do everything, even if he was only half of the rumors, it was not surprising that he could enter and exit Ziru.
Murdoch was sweating, and the murderous head had already begun to think about countermeasures quickly. He considered sounding the alarm and asking people to siege, or suddenly attacked and let go, or made up some lies to hide it from the other party, but in the end they were all rejected. In front of the "center", he felt like he had become a lamb to be slaughtered, and everything he did was futile.
However, just when he was completely disappointed and was almost ready to die, the bishop suddenly said, "This thing is quite novel. I didn't expect you to really make such interesting things. To be honest, when you applied for this project, I didn't believe it."
Murdoch still didn't speak.
The bishop smiled, walked to the table, put down the cube in his hand, and said, "It's okay, just continue playing as you want."
Murdoch was stunned, as if he could not believe what he heard. But the bishop had turned around, and a golden vortex opened out of thin air in front of him, and he had already stepped into it.
Murdoch asked, "Are you...not planning to execute me?"
The bishop glanced at him and said, "What do you think?" Then, his figure disappeared into the vortex.
