Chapter 667: Dawn in the Gap (two-in-one super large chapter please vote for me)
At the same time that He Ao picked up the bracelet, his body lost balance due to his movement, swayed, and fell backward.
"grandfather!"
When Jia Qian saw this scene, she immediately rushed over and supported He Ao's body from behind.
"Grandpa is fine,"
He Ao held the bracelet and smiled with difficulty. Then, with Jia Qian's support, he held the crutch and slowly lowered it, "Grandpa, sit down for a while."
At this moment, Jia Qian discovered that the tip of Grandpa's crutch was completely submerged into the ground and the entire crutch was fixed to the ground.
And He Ao was actually relying on this crutch to support his body just now.
Just when the battle ended, He Ao turned off Super Memory, and with the departure of Super Memory, the power in his body was naturally quickly drained away. However, before turning off, he adjusted his body shape and center of gravity to allow himself to
The whole body can be supported on the crutches to avoid exposing one's weakness.
It was also because of this that it was only after he briefly activated his super memory and confirmed that the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang was completely dead that he dared to bend down and pick up the bracelet on the ground.
This action destroyed the fragile but stable center of gravity he had maintained, causing his entire body to lose control and almost fall.
At this moment, little Jia Qian worriedly surrounded He Ao and looked at him cautiously.
She seemed to want to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything, instead she twitched the tip of her nose.
"It's okay," He Ao touched her little head, "Grandpa, just take a rest and you'll be fine."
Because of martial arts practice, his physical fitness has gradually improved. Although it is not that good, it will not cause the entire body to collapse due to long-term use of super memory.
However, his current condition is not much better.
"Um!"
Jia Qian nodded.
She then raised her head and glanced at the door, as if she wanted to close the door.
"No need to close it."
He Ao shook his head slightly and stopped her.
There are still people from the Poisonous Scorpion Gang outside. They don't know what's going on inside, but they don't dare to come in now due to the power of He Ao who killed so many people before.
At this time, any additional actions may cause outsiders to become suspicious of the scene inside.
Especially "defense-enhancing" operations such as closing the door are more likely to show cowardice and attract attacks.
Jia Qian looked back at her grandfather. She didn't know what the specific situation was, but she chose to follow her grandfather's command and guarded He Ao vigilantly with a gauss gun.
He Ao glanced at the little granddaughter beside him, leaned on the crutch inserted into the ground, slowly opened the bracelet in his hand, and entered the password.
The first thing that catches the eye of He Ao is a simple homepage background.
The logo on this bracelet is that it is produced by Tellison Group, but the operating system installed is not Tellison Group's operating system, but a minimalist cracked system.
This should be to avoid the monitoring backdoor installed in the system by Tellison Group.
Generally, relatively large consortiums have their own customized and concise systems, and all information involving business secrets is transferred using their own systems and software.
The underground world also has popular simple systems, and the bracelet of the boss of the Scorpion Gang seems to be that kind of system in the underground world.
However, this kind of system is not completely safe. After all, system developers in the underground world do not necessarily insert backdoors into the system. Using this kind of system just does not expose your information to certain large consortiums.
That’s all.
In addition to the communication function, the only software installed on the entire bracelet is the "black market" software.
He Ao clicked on the software.
The nickname of the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang is ‘Poisonous Scorpion’, and his black market level is lv3, which is higher than the account level that He Ao got from Yin Xiya.
He Ao clicked on the level sign,
[Your current level is lv3. You can read forum information that can be read by lv0, lv1, lv2, and lv3, purchase mall items that can be purchased by lv0, lv1, lv2, and lv3, and enjoy 1-to-1 private butler service, as well as lv3 exclusive
15% off, and more discounts on bulk orders.
*Accept more tasks, get more points, and quickly upgrade your level to get more permissions and benefits.
Time left for your next live biometric verification: 03:24:47]
The content structure in the logo is generally similar to lv2, except that it has higher permissions, more benefits, and more discounts.
In addition, lv3 also has a living biometric authentication function.
It seems that every once in a while, you need to verify whether the identity is for you and verify whether the account owner is still alive.
He Ao took a look at the current time. It was about two o'clock in the morning, and there were still three hours left before the next verification.
The boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang just said that biometric verification will be conducted at six o'clock tomorrow.
Judging from the context at that time, the boss of the Scorpion Gang probably regarded the entire night as the 'day before'.
It seems that there is not much time left for He Ao.
He Ao exited his personal homepage and clicked on the chat page.
This chat page has only one chat partner, a user with the nickname "Cuyingren".
When I click on the detailed chat interface, there are only two messages.
The first one was sent by Poisonous Scorpion to the film maker. It probably described an old man with a child who was about to reach the top.
There is no inquiry or discussion in the entire paragraph, it is just stating the facts.
But this passage is actually a threat. The poisonous scorpion is telling the film maker that he has figured out the purpose of the film maker and that the opponent is very strong. At the same time, he is also hinting to the film maker that if the price given is not enough, he will
Maybe it's on He Ao's side.
The next message is a reply from the film maker. The time was not long ago and the content is very simple. [Kill him and I will give you the next step of training]
After reading these two messages, He Ao clicked on the avatar of the film maker, but couldn't click on it. Obviously, the black market did not have a function to access the chat partner's homepage.
He withdrew his gaze and withdrew from the bracelet.
In fact, there is a lot of information in the sentence of the film maker.
The 'cultivation' he refers to is most likely a method of cultivating pollution monsters. The boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang has reached the ultimate C-level power, and Shadow Cutting Man still has the next step of cultivating him.
This means that Shadow Cutman and the organization he belongs to called the "Evolutionary Followers" have a high probability of cultivating pollution monsters beyond the C-level limit.
In other words, what He Ao will encounter next may be enemies that exceed the C-level limit or even reach the B-level.
He Ao clicked on the black market interface again and took a look at the information and content that can be seen at level 3.
Although there is only one level difference between lv3 and lv2, the tasks they can accept are already very different.
In He Ao's lv2 'Night Listener' account, most of the tasks that can be seen are to deal with a certain gang leader or a bounty for a wandering extraordinary person, and the overall strength level does not exceed E level.
Most of them are F-rated.
At level 3, most of the tasks involve D-level strength, and there are even some tasks involving C-level extraordinary beings.
It seems that the black market has a very clear division of levels of strength. Level 0 most likely corresponds to novices, level 1 corresponds to ordinary people, and perhaps a small number of extraordinary items, level 2 corresponds to relatively basic extraordinary beings from F to E, and
Level 3 is the powerful extraordinary person from D to C.
So, does this black market have a higher level?
It seems that the black market is deeper than Heao previously expected.
He Ao raised his bracelet and transmitted Eve's remote control terminal to the bracelet belonging to the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang.
Then he entered the command for Eve to collect information.
He definitely wouldn't be able to collect enough information in the past few hours, but Eve could.
And this bracelet shouldn't really only contain information related to the black market. Since the boss of the Scorpion Gang has been carrying it on his hand, there should be some other data.
And judging from the last actions of the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang, he probably also had the idea of helping He Ao get rid of the shadow man and drag him to go to hell to accompany him.
So there should be some key information in the bracelet he specially gave.
However, if He Ao had to search for it bit by bit, it would take too much time, but Eve did not have this worry.
After doing this, He Ao looked back at the broken window, then turned to look at his granddaughter, "Jia Qian, give grandpa the gun."
"good."
Jia Qian handed the Gauss gun in her hand to He Ao.
He Ao once again experienced super memory in a short period of time, bursting out with strength far beyond his current weak state. He quickly raised his Gauss gun, pointed it at the window, and then suddenly fired.
boom--
The bullet passed through the large hole in the floor-to-ceiling window and shattered the drone hovering in the air aiming here.
When the battle just started, He Ao did not notice any drone nearby. This drone seemed to have just arrived and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
This drone should not belong to the remaining members of the Scorpion Gang. If they want to test it, they can enter through the front entrance.
It seems that this belongs to the third party in this battle, the Clan of Evolution, which is the force to which Taiyingren belongs.
This group also seems to like using these small armed drones.
However, the emergence of this armed drone means another thing. There should be no other power nearby that Evolution can call upon.
He had shown obvious weakness just now in order to attract the power of the evolved followers who might be lurking. After all, when the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang fought with He Ao, the shadowmaker would definitely try his best to watch, and maybe he could even pick one up.
leak.
But in the end all that came was a drone.
This proves that only this drone should be able to get here in a short period of time, and there is a high probability that the drone itself is nearby.
Compared to the strength of the Scorpion Gang boss, drones of this level basically pose no threat.
This drone may have been specially left by the boss of the Scorpion Gang.
The surrounding forces that may pose threats may have been solved or driven away by him.
After all, this is his core territory, and there is no way he would allow the Shadow Cutters to encroach on his territory.
He Ao leaned on the crutches, returned the Gauss gun to his granddaughter, and let the power of Chaoyi be drawn away bit by bit.
——
"Sir, do we still want to send tame monsters there?"
In a closed, windowless room, a man with curly brown hair glanced at the screen in front of him that flashed a [No Signal] pop-up window and then turned off, then glanced at the tall figure in front of him, and asked in a low voice.
"No need, this old guy is probably trying to show weakness to lure us into taking the bait,"
The tall figure looked at the extinguished screen, "Have you found out who this old guy is?"
"We have no information about him in our database,"
The man with brown curly hair responded lightly, and then thought hesitantly, "Sir, could this old guy's strength be related to Nighthawk? Nighthawk never sees people with their true colors, and we don't know either.
What kind of relatives does he have? If he says he doesn't have any, that doesn't necessarily mean he really doesn't have any."
The tall and tall figure did not speak, but still turned his back to the brown-haired man. He held his chin in his hand, thinking deeply.
——
Two hours later, at close to five o'clock in the morning, He Ao finally regained some ability to move.
He stood up with the crutches, and with Jia Qian's help, he pulled out the crutches that were stuck on the ground.
This crutch has long been covered with fine cracks due to the high-intensity fighting, but it can still barely support He Ao's body.
"Jia Qian, don't make any defensive or attacking movements when you go out later."
In the process of getting up, He Ao leaned against his granddaughter and whispered.
The more natural it is, the more confident it appears.
"Um!"
Jia Qian put down the Gauss gun in her hand and nodded slightly.
He Ao touched her head, then walked to the door with his crutches on his back.
Jia Qian tidied up from behind and followed.
As soon as the two of them went out, they saw gang members armed with various weapons standing ten meters away from the door, looking at He Ao cautiously.
He Ao glanced at them calmly, left the door with his crutches, and walked forward.
When those people saw He Ao approaching, they quickly backed away and looked at He Ao warily.
Shortly after He Ao left, some gang members came over from the other side, took a look at the scene in the house, and then shouted in horror, accompanied by the sound of nauseating retching, "The boss is dead!"
!”
This sharp sound, together with the light from the top, traveled down the huge patio, seeming to be accompanied by a tremor of darkness.
He Ao, who heard this voice, was unmoved and still slowly supported his crutches and walked down the stairs step by step.
His movements were very slow, his face was old, and his hair was full of silver. He looked like an ordinary old man, struggling down the stairs.
But every step he takes seems to step on the heartbeats of the people around him.
The gang members surrounded him, but no one dared to come within ten meters of him.
An invisible 'vacuum' separates the elderly from the violent gang members.
The top floors are very clean because He Ao didn't meet any gang members here.
As He Ao stepped down, more and more blood appeared on the stairs, gradually covering the entire stairs with blood red.
The pungent smell of blood mixed with the disturbing breath of the summer night brushed against everyone's cheeks.
He Ao's footsteps stepped on these stairs covered with blood, one step after another.
Those gang members stood at the bottom of the stairs, looking up at He Ao walking down the stairs step by step with blood, and then retreating step by step along He Ao's progress.
The image reflected in their childlike eyes no longer seemed like an old man with gray hair holding a cane, but a devil in formal clothes walking on blood and fire.
Invisible fear spreads in everyone's hearts.
He Ao went down nearly a dozen floors in a row, but no one dared to stand up and attack him.
No one even dared to breathe loudly.
The Scorpion Gang has no shortage of people who are loyal to their boss and willing to die for it.
And now they were lying at everyone's feet, their bodies made even whiter by the bright red blood stains.
He Ao continued to descend, and, surrounded by these gang members, reached the twentieth floor.
This time, he did not continue going downstairs, but walked to the room near the stairs and stopped in front of the door.
Jia Qian reached out her hand and knocked on the door.
After a brief pause, with a creaking sound, the old door slowly opened.
A cheek slowly poked out from behind the door, it was the person who reminded He Ao before.
He seemed to have been standing behind the door, waiting for Jia Qian to knock on the door before he dared to open the door. He looked at He Ao carefully and glanced at the blood on the ground, "What can I do for you?"
"I'll let you take charge of this neighborhood, okay?"
He Ao looked at him and said calmly.
"ah?"
The man was stunned for a moment.
However, He Ao did not explain further, but waited quietly.
He knew that the man understood, but he was too surprised to react.
After a brief silence, the man finally asked tremblingly, "I personally have no objection, but I have no strength and no gang..."
He Ao stared at him, but did not answer him directly. Instead, he turned to look at the remaining members of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang, "Do you have any objections?"
The gang members looked at He Ao and did not react for a moment.
Some gang members moved their bodies, as if preparing to say something objectionable.
But the sticky sound of the soles rubbing against the blood that had not completely dried on the ground made them all quiet down.
The scene seemed to fall into an eerie silence.
He Ao looked at these people who were completely silent and said slowly again, "Do you have any opinions?"
His voice was calm and slow, but it was like the sound of death knocking on everyone's ears.
In this invisible sound, drops of sweat seeped out from the foreheads of the gang members at the front and fell to the red ground.
"No······"
I don't know who made it, but a faint murmuring voice sounded in the crowd.
"Um?"
He Ao calmly stared at the person in front of him.
His voice was very soft and did not seem threatening in any way.
But everyone's bodies trembled at the same time,
"We...have no...opinion..."
Finally, the person at the front who looked like the leader lowered his head, and beads of sweat dripped down his cheeks and fell into the blood on the ground.
Like the first piece of a domino being toppled, heads dropped at this moment.
He Ao turned his head and looked at the man behind the door, "They have no objection."
The man looked at He Ao, and after a brief silence, he nodded slightly, "I can do that."
He Ao raised his head, glanced at the man, then raised his bracelet, and exchanged electronic business cards with the man, "If you have any questions, contact me."
Finally he turned around and continued walking towards the stairs.
This time, the gang members who originally surrounded him and retreated along with his advance did not retreat again, but slowly turned sideways to make way for He Ao.
As if making way for his leader.
The man hiding behind the door finally opened the door and looked at He Ao's back with complicated eyes.
The order established by the Scorpion Gang is not a good order. It makes everyone living in the Green Olive neighborhood live under the fear of death.
But no matter how bad the order is, it is still order.
The death of the boss of the Scorpion Gang, the former 'underground emperor', is very likely to cause the old order to collapse.
Then chaos will once again rule this neighborhood, various gangs will start fighting again, and killing and madness will become the theme of this neighborhood again, until a new "underground emperor" reappears and establishes a new order.
At the same time, in this process, the forces of Taiying and his evolutionary followers will more easily spread into the Green Olive District through chaos, and even control the Green Olive District.
Even if the Scorpion Gang does not fall into chaos due to the death of the boss, the chaos will be stirred up by the film editors in order to fish in troubled waters.
Therefore, He Ao needs to prevent the Green Olive neighborhood from falling into chaos and losing all order immediately after he leaves.
Therefore, he needs a 'spokesman' who is at least kind-hearted and familiar with the situation in the Green Olive neighborhood to help him maintain temporary short-term order.
This man who once reminded He Ao is very suitable.
First of all, he was willing to remind He Ao when the poisonous scorpion's gang was strong, proving that he has basic courage and kindness.
Secondly, his voice was most likely because Jia Qian saved the child on the seventeenth floor. He was three floors away from that child, but he was able to help that child. This proves that he is very likely to be with other people.
Block members have ways to communicate privately, and there is some kind of mutual aid group in the Green Olive Block privately.
In addition, the gang members He Ao met before said that the cold drink owner at the entrance of the block was able to escape the capture of the Scorpion Gang many times because someone in the block sent her a message.
This shows that this mutual aid group within the Green Olive neighborhood is probably not small, and it can effectively collect and use intelligence, which has a certain impact on the rule of the Scorpion Gang.
Finally, this person has a good grasp of the information about this building, and it is not necessary for an ordinary person to grasp this information, so his status in the group is probably not low.
Taken together, he is actually a good spokesperson option.
However, his concern is that he is not strong enough to overpower the other men of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang.
And standing here, with blood and corpses as a 'medal', how can I do that?
So He Ao needs to come forward to give him support.
But this 'spokesperson leader' is actually not a good job. He has neither strength nor a strong record, so it is difficult to subdue those former factions.
These forces may obey him in the short term out of fear of He Ao, but once He Ao does not take action for a long time, these people's fear of He Ao disappears, and they will start to find ways to evade his power, and even want to replace him.
.
Then his death is not far away.
But again, this is also an opportunity.
A coin always has two sides.
When He Ao asked him, he was also giving him a chance to choose.
And he understood this, so he hinted to Ho that he needed more support.
He Ao gave him support, but he had to walk the road ahead on his own.
······
After parting ways with the man, He Ao and Jia Qian continued downstairs, collecting the bodies of the two dead extraordinary beings in the process.
Those gang members actively helped He Ao pack the body, put it in bags, and arranged for people to find a car to carry the body and follow He Ao.
When a certain psychological boundary is broken and their thinking is completely changed, they know how to flatter someone.
Some people who had been hiding in the room also came out, holding walkie-talkies in their hands and looking around with a little confusion and excitement.
And He Ao took Jia Qian to the initial entrance of the block.
······
The owner of the cold drink shop was sitting at the door, with water and medicine bottles in front of her, looking deep into the block, a little lost in thought.
But soon, her eyes were attracted by two figures, one large and one small, walking out of the night.
Her eyes focused on the two figures, the weak light shining on the old man's white hair and the girl's young face.
The boss slowly sat up straight. She looked at He and Ao, first with unbelievable surprise, then with uncontrollable joy, and with the relief of the tight strings relaxing.
He Ao also saw her. He leaned on his crutch and nodded to the shop owner to say hello.
Jia Qian waved excitedly to the store owner.
The shop owner smiled, nodded, and waved back to the two of them.
Then she looked at the two people, walking out of the night and walking out of the block.
She breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the water and medicine in front of her, slowly reached out and picked them up.
At this moment, several more figures appeared in the night.
Walking at the front were women with walkie-talkies in their hands, thin and shriveled figures, and withered hair.
She rushed out of the night and hugged the store owner tightly as soon as they met.
When the boss was still a little confused by the hug, he heard the woman crying with a little bit of excitement,
"Sister, the boss of the Poisonous Scorpion Gang is dead. He is dead...no one will disappear anymore...no more..."
Holding the water glass and medicine bottle, the store owner was at a loss as to what to do and slowly hugged the woman. Her voice was trembling uncontrollably, "Okay...Okay..."
She raised her head and looked at the sky in the gap above her head.
In that endless night, it seems that the light of dawn fills the sky.
