Chapter 582 - 284: Black-on-Black Crime (Part 2)
"It’s you who’s being naive... Do you even know what kind of ore vein we’re standing on right now? What’s under our feet?" Gu Ningxuan calmly looked at the dozens of Mecha pointing Hotline Particle Cannons at him, "It’s Chongming Ore..."
"What’s so special about Chongming Ore... Chongming..." The man’s voice abruptly stopped, as if he couldn’t believe it, asking, "You’re insane!"
The value of Chongming Ore was already high, yet no matter how precious, it still had a value ceiling. Five years ago, the price of Chongming Ore had stabilized, but after a chaotic battle, new uses for Chongming Ore emerged, causing its price to soar once again.
One of these was a new usage of Chongming Ore. Wherever Chongming Ore exists, it produces a large amount of dangerous gas, and if it explodes, it’s unimaginably terrifying! Moreover, Chongming Ore imposes terrifying restrictions on Mechas...
Gu Ningxuan’s strength was already formidable, and with the aid of the Chongming Ore, it was not difficult for him to turn the tables. Furthermore, being in the ore vein of Chongming Ore, the concealed dangerous gases were even more terrifying, rendering large destructive weapons like Hotline Particle Cannons unusable. If one shot hits the ground, who knows if those gases would be released?
"You kid... is that why you didn’t summon your Mecha immediately?"
The man’s face darkened, previously being defeated by Gu Ningyi was one thing, as at the time, Gu Ningyi indeed had the power to crush him. But thirty or forty years later, Gu Ningyi’s younger brother also steps in to stab him in the back... These brothers truly are his nemesis! Of course, if this man knew there was a Young Master Gu Er between these brothers, haha... he would definitely go mad!
"That’s not it..." Gu Ningxuan confessed honestly, "At first, I thought you would wait for Su Qixin and the rest of the team to fall out, and after they both suffer, you’d jump out to pick up the pieces. I didn’t expect you couldn’t hold back even now... The reason I didn’t immediately summon my Mecha is simply because... I wanted to feign weakness. Not to mention, Su Qixin breached the employment contract..."
The man twitched his mouth, promptly realizing Gu Ningxuan’s strategy. This kid isn’t short on cunning tricks!
From the start, he anticipated that the cooperation with Su Qixin wouldn’t be stable. Since Su Qixin breached the employment contract, the mercenaries could tear up the contract with the employer. Thus, he could be the last to profit, monopolizing the entire ore vein?
"Encountering a mercenary like you, Su Qixin is quite unlucky... Besides, I remember you’re just like your brother, both belonging to a military Aristocratic Family, the Gu family’s son, right? Doing something so shameful, is it really okay?"
The Gu Family always presents a positive military image to the public, yet it turns out this seemingly upright Gu Ningxuan has such a dark side.
"When in a position, one must do one’s duty. Since I’m a mercenary, I should adhere to the mercenary’s conduct... With Su Qixin unilaterally breaching the contract, the employment relationship is already nonexistent, so where does loyalty come into play?" Gu Ningxuan exerted slight force, "But you should worry about your own neck, about whether it will be twisted off by me at any moment... Have you considered it?"
Consider it? What options does he have? If he shows no indication, his neck would truly be snapped by Gu Ningxuan! The man’s face darkened with the urge to curse, the Gu Ningyi family’s younger brother, damn, they’re all bastards!
However, before the man could make a decision, the pressure on his neck suddenly increased significantly, causing him nearly to roll his eyes. When he finally regained his sight, he found that the scenery before him had changed... Here, is the Mecha’s cockpit?
"Sit tight, otherwise the bomb in your hand won’t care about your feelings." Gu Ningxuan’s mellow voice came over, causing the man’s body to stiffen as he realized he was sitting in the co-pilot seat, and at some point, there was a timed bomb strapped to his arm.
What has happened? The man’s confusion didn’t last long before it was resolved. Previously, someone couldn’t hold back and attacked Gu Ningxuan. Unfortunately, Gu Ningxuan’s response speed was inhuman, resulting in him being slightly late, with an Energy Bullet hitting the Mecha’s shell, while his target had already ducked into the Mecha cockpit, taking the opportunity to lay a trap for the man and plant a timed bomb on him...
"What do you... intend to do?" The man turned his head to watch Gu Ningxuan’s driving actions, swallowing hard and secretly cursing, monster!
"Killing one to warn a hundred!" Gu Ningxuan’s hands moved swiftly, with the cockpit’s instruments feeling like extensions of his body, operating them with complete familiarity and ease, "With you in my hands, if they dare to make a move... they need to be taught a lesson..."
The man’s facial muscles twitched, suddenly wanting to slap himself. Previously having the Dancing Lady provoke Gu Ningxuan, watching his nervous and embarrassed reactions, he thought this was a naive fledgling, should be less decisive than his brother... But now look, the craftiness is rivalling Gu Ningyi’s! Damn, and he even set a timed bomb on him...
The man had no doubt, if he dared make any move, even just a little thought, the other would quickly detect it, and then... imagining that scene, the man instantly became cowardly. The fierce fear the reckless, and the reckless fear those who risk their lives...
Congratulations to Gu Ningxuan for achieving the honor of being a "man who dares everything"! As for this man, at most he qualifies as "fierce"...
"You... doing such a grand maneuver, aren’t you afraid of causing an explosion here?" The man watched as Gu Ningxuan boldly even brought out the Energy Cannon without any scruples, twitching his face, "The veins of Chongming Ore generate easily combustible dangerous gases..."
Gu Ningxuan suddenly laughed, revealing a row of gleaming white teeth, "What you say is true, but do you know how deep those gases lie beneath the surface? Unless it’s a weapon that can obliterate an entire city in an instant... Otherwise... hehe, what I said earlier was just to mislead you, commonly known as—deceive you!" (To be continued.
