The presence of the strange tree is indeed very magical. It does not reveal its true identity in this building, but its language and its voice can clearly appear in the building, allowing everyone to hear it clearly.
Clearly.
Obviously no one spoke on its behalf, but the sound seemed to surround the entire building.
"Everyone, I'm very disappointed, really disappointed."
"The preferential treatment I have given you will allow you to have power that you cannot imagine, let you be a master, and enjoy all kinds of resources. What is your reward?"
"Do you really think that I don't know that many of you are slacking off?"
The voice of the strange tree is low, and even the articulation is not very clear. The buzzing has a mysterious accent, which makes people feel upset when listening to it.
But right now, none of the hundreds of agents dare to show any discomfort on their faces.
Because, they clearly felt Lord Shuzu's anger.
It was an emotion that could destroy them all.
At this time, if anyone shows any details that dissatisfy Lord Shuzu, this person will definitely die without a burial place.
"Jiao Zhigang."
The strange tree suddenly called out a name eerily.
Some people in the crowd shrank their heads, with obvious fear in their eyes, and their bodies couldn't help but want to dodge into the crowd.
But the fear of Master Shuzu made him still dare not respond.
He walked out of the crowd with all his strength, his face turned pale, and his feet were swaying unsatisfactorily.
"Shu... Lord Shuzu." Jiao Zhigang whispered.
"It seems that you still know fear?" Master Shuzu said indifferently.
Jiao Zhigang let out a loud thud. He couldn't hold on any longer. He knelt down on the ground and cried out sadly: "Master Shuzu, I regret. I admit that I was a little slack some time ago. I swear to God, I will definitely change. I will definitely change."
Please give me another chance, Master Shuzu!"
As Jiao Zhigang spoke, he knocked his head to the ground and kept kowtowing.
"Give you another chance? Who will give me another chance?" Master Shuzu said calmly, "I always pay attention to preferential treatment for the agents I choose, and I don't want any of you to be wronged. It's a pity that some people don't cherish it.
.”
Suddenly, Master Shuzu's tone became fierce: "If a sneaky person like you is not punished, it will be the greatest injustice to those who work hard."
"Lord Shuzu, I... I am willing to atone for my sins. I am willing to double, no! triple the effort! Please give me another chance, Lord Shuzu!"
The Weird Tree obviously had no intention of giving him another chance.
Jiao Zhigang's body suddenly twitched, and then all the nerves in his body seemed to be controlled by some strange force. His whole body twisted, his limbs began to twist strangely, and his head and neck also twisted irregularly.
Then, all his clothes seemed to be torn apart, pieces falling apart.
On the surface of his skin, there were tiny strange lines. They looked like the meridians and blood vessels on his body, but they were obviously much finer.
Jiao Zhigang's whole body was twitching continuously, his limbs were twisting more and more, and his head was suddenly raised to the sky, showing an exaggerated head tilt.
His mouth seemed to be opened by some invisible force, and it opened much wider than usual.
Moreover, the width of the grin continued to expand, until obvious tears began to appear at the corners of the mouth.
The sound of the skin tearing was like tearing apart cloth, making a blood-curdling tearing sound.
Then, the teeth in his mouth seemed to be constantly shaken and squeezed by some force, and they actually continued to chant out of the mouth one by one.
Finally, Jiao Zhigang's entire tongue stuck out of his mouth, but it was as if an invisible hand was pulling the tongue and extending it infinitely.
This isn't the weirdest thing.
When the tongue stretched to the limit, there was a snap and it broke completely, and then a strange tree trunk came out of Jiao Zhigang's mouth.
The tree trunk picked up Jiao Zhigang's tongue, looking extremely strange and spreading rapidly.
At this time, Jiao Zhigang's trunk and limbs were constantly stabbing out branch-like sharp objects.
As Jiao Zhigang twisted, the shape of the tree became more and more obvious. And Jiao Zhigang's body seemed to be completely embedded in the tree, being constantly stretched open.
As the tree continued to grow, Jiao Zhigang's body became more and more exaggerated.
Jiao Zhigang couldn't even utter a scream, he was already dead.
After his mouth was stretched open indefinitely, Jiao Zhigang's head was already shapeless, with only two eyeballs that were stretched to huge size due to fear and despair, and hung on both sides of the tree trunk, making all onlookers feel horrified.
It would be false to say that they were not afraid of Jiao Zhigang's death.
The death of the rabbit makes the fox sad.
Although Jiao Zhigang died, there was a reason for his death.
But with so many people here, is there really only one Jiao Zhigang?
Not necessarily!
Chen Gingxing hid in the crowd, and when she saw this horrific scene, she was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her heart beat wildly.
She had already guessed that Jiao Zhigang might not survive, but she never expected that Mr. Shuzu would be executed in public, and that his death would be so tragic.
"Wang Zunqiao, Zhan Yadong..." The strange tree called out two more names.
Two figures in the crowd almost did not hesitate, as if there was a tacit understanding, and they jumped from the building towards the window as if they were running away.
Actually want to escape!
Seeing Jiao Zhigang's fate, they seemed to guess that even begging for mercy would be of no avail, so they might as well give it a try and see if they could escape.
However, this is undoubtedly a ridiculous action.
The moment they accepted the strange tree, they had lost their autonomy.
Not to mention right in front of you, even if the weird tree is not there, there are many ways for the weird tree to kill them.
Before the two people rushed to the window, their bodies suddenly trembled as if they were electrocuted, and they suddenly stopped.
"Haha, you are smarter than Jiao Zhigang, and you still know how to escape?"
The two men couldn't move their bodies, but their minds were still clear, and their eyes were moving, showing expressions of begging for mercy.
It's just that right now, their mouths are wide open, but they can't spit out even a single word.
"You two, after you gained strength from me, you only did one thing for me. You have been working hard on the tasks assigned to you later. Let's talk about whether such people deserve to die!" The strange tree said
This time, he did not pronounce the verdict alone, but asked everyone for their opinions.
At this time, who dares to express different opinions?
Almost everyone said: "Damn it!"
Even if it is against one's will, even those who also have evil intentions in their hearts do not dare to speak out against it.
"Haha, look, everyone thinks you deserve to die, so why are you still alive?"
The strange tree's voice fell, and the two people's bodies twitched and twisted again.
Then, the scene with Jiao Zhigang also appeared on these two people.
After the strange tree killed three people in a row, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense to the point of almost suffocation.
Even those who think they have always worked very hard are inevitably worried. What if Master Shuzu is dissatisfied with him?
What if everything I do does not meet Lord Shuzu’s requirements?
Fortunately, after killing three people, the Weird Tree seemed to have no intention of going on a killing spree.
"You are all the backbones that I have cultivated. Every time I kill someone, I feel it is a pity."
"I also know that there are far more people among you who deserve to be killed than these three."
Everyone present heard this and breathed a sigh of relief.
Does this mean the killing is over?
"If I hadn't been employing people now, there would have been at least dozens of you who deserved to be killed. Why did I only kill three? Firstly, they are the three who deserve to be killed. Secondly, I don't want to kill them all. I want to kill them all.
Give you a chance."
After hearing this, those who were worried finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, it seems that I have escaped disaster this time.
"Don't think that if I don't kill you today, everything will be fine. My kill list is still there. After today, if you continue to muddle along like before, your fate will not be better than those three people.
.Your death date may be today, it may be tomorrow, it may be every day in the future.”
Those guys who were relieved a little suddenly became nervous again.
It seems that Master Shuzu is really serious and angry this time.
"Next, let me tell you three things!"
"The situation in Star City has suddenly changed recently, and some forces that are very unfriendly to us have appeared, causing great damage to us. I have a responsibility here, and you have a responsibility as well. If each of you can unite, I believe
, the situation will never be as passive as it is now."
"So, the first thing I want to say is that I want to re-select a few top agents. I don't want you to be Zhu Yindong, I don't want you to be Binghai, or Qing Ming. I hope there will be better ones. People can replace them."
"According to my long-term observation of Tang Pan, I am very satisfied with his brains, means, awakening talent and loyalty. Therefore, he will be my first new top agent."
"Meng Shuanglin and Tong Jiangnan are the two remaining candidates I have chosen."
"Those who are not selected, don't be discouraged. Because the second thing I want to say next is your chance!"
"Tong Jiangnan, come and announce the second thing."
Tong Jiangnan is a short man, barely 160cm tall.
But when this man walked out of the crowd, his eyes wandered around, giving people a sense of something penetrating.
It was as if there was a terrifying fear hidden in this man's eyes.
"Everyone, you must have all felt Lord Shuzu's anger. But you should also feel Lord Shuzu's determination to promote the underachievers."
"Open your eyes and see clearly. In the portraits I am going to show you below, remember every face. This is the target you will attack next. Whoever can kill anyone in the photo will be qualified to get the tree ancestor." As a reward from the Lord, I was even promoted to the top agent."
Tong Jiangnan didn't waste any time and began to show the huge portraits one by one.
I don’t know what method he used to obtain these portraits. Every person in these portraits is lifelike, as if they were real people trapped in the pictures.
The first portrait shown by this person was clearly that of Jiang Yue.
Moreover, Tong Jiangnan deliberately displayed Jiang Yue's portrait several times more.
"Everyone, this man's name is Jiang Yue, a native of Star City. He was once a middle school student at Star City Yangfan Middle School. His hometown is called Crescent Harbor, which was a community more than ten years ago. It is now a medium-sized survivor base. This Jiang Yue, He has close ties with this base and often appears there. But the place where this person makes his home is the most famous Daozi Lane villa in Star City. The places where this person has been frequenting for a long time include the Star City Action Bureau, Yangfan Middle School and other places..."
"This second person is called Luo Teng, and he is now the director of the Star City Operations Bureau..."
Tong Jiangnan kept displaying the portraits, and among them were Han Yiyang, Han Jingjing and his daughter.
After the portraits were displayed, Tong Jiangnan said sadly: "Everyone, the opportunity for you to make contributions and stand out has arrived. Don't say that Mr. Shuzu doesn't give you a chance. Now everyone's opportunities are equal. Who can mention the names of these people in the portrait? Whoever has the brain will get ahead, it’s simple and fair!”
"Especially this Jiang Yue, whoever can kill him, Mr. Shuzu will have an unexpected surprise for you."
"Unexpected surprise? What is that?" Most of these agents are desperadoes with a strong speculative mentality.
I was naturally excited when I heard there was an unexpected and huge surprise.
The strange tree said calmly: "Whoever can kill this Jiang Yue, why not if I grant you eternal life?"
Live forever?
The scene was filled with exclamations of exclamation, obviously shocked by this promise.
"Lord Shuzu, is there really such a thing as eternal life?"
"Haha, with your mere human vision, how can you understand the power of the ancient world? In ancient times, there were simply too many creatures with exaggerated lifespans. Immortality does not mean immortality, but under normal circumstances without accidents, the body's functions are almost
It is not an exaggeration at all to be immortal and live for tens of thousands of years."
Even if he is not immortal and can live for tens of thousands of years, that is still an exaggeration.
For humans in this era, this is simply something that exists in fantasy, something that is simply impossible to realize.
"Everyone, this opportunity to live forever is rare, but not everyone is qualified. Unless someone can really kill Jiang Yue. Of course, Tang Pan and I will fight for this opportunity with all our strength. Your competitors
, including the three of us.”
Anyone would be tempted by the opportunity to live forever.
To say that Tong Jiangnan and the others were not moved would seem to be a bit false.
Hearing what Tong Jiangnan said, most people perked up and felt that this matter was really a bit of a joke.
"Okay, everyone, take your time to digest this good news. Master Shuzu has a third thing to explain."
"This third thing is not difficult. But I need each of you to take action and find out the details of each survivor base in Star City. I want the specific location of each base and the approximate manpower. I will give you 24 hours.
There are hundreds of you, every one of you counts, and no one is allowed to be lazy. I believe I don’t need to say more about the consequences of being lazy..."
