The headquarters conference room inside the Steel Fortress.
Round table, four people sit on each side.
Lu Ming, Crown Princess Sekhmet, "The Devourer" Garnett, the representative of the Thorngrass family in the advance team, and "Beast God" Wolf.
Wolfe is a man over two meters tall with a muscular body. Even with the stature of an ordinary person, he looks very powerful.
He, Crown Princess Sekhmet, and OPEC, the third-generation successor of the Thorngrass family, are generally considered to be the three strongest representatives of the younger generation.
"The Devourer" Garnett is very mysterious, wrapped in a black robe. From Lu Ming's perspective, his whole body is always emitting a trace of black energy.
After OPEC left, he became the leader of the seven members of the Thorngrass family in the advance team.
Any action taken by the Awakened Ones is agreed upon by four people, and it is always in the form of a round table meeting, that is, four people each have one vote and have equal status.
"Before the raid on Red Star City, we must send people to infiltrate and investigate whether the so-called 'royal family' in the New World has any power that can compete with us. As for transporting materials to the Red Star area, we also need time to open up the transportation channels. Otherwise, we will be defeated by the New World Railway Army.
It would be even more troublesome if the police seized it. Moreover, no matter what, we need to see the people from OPEC, and we cannot just transport the weapons to the so-called person designated by him just because of the secret message he sent to the family."
Originally, "The Devourer" Garnett seemed very satisfied when he heard Lu Ming agreed to cooperate with OPEC, and the black air coming out of his black robe had faded. But after hearing Lu Ming's next words of setting conditions, what happened to him
, gradually became cold.
"I agree. That guy sent a few telegrams mysteriously. I don't even know whether he was arrested or not!" Beast God Wolf has a rough and deep voice. When he speaks normally, it is like a giant shouting, which makes people's ears buzz.
Buzzing.
Devourer Garnett did not speak, but traces of black energy were already flowing in the direction of Beast God Wolf.
Wolfe's pupils suddenly turned blood red, like an aggressive wolf, staring at the black air.
Lu Ming seemed completely unaware and said: "In addition, our deployment has also reached a critical period. For the next command of the awakened forces, I think it is inappropriate to use a round table meeting. The army is fighting outside the territory and there is no real commander.
But after everyone discussed it, it is a taboo at all. I think the same is true for the power of awakened people." After a pause, "So, I propose that I am the commander-in-chief of the front line, and I will naturally make the final decision on matters here.
But the Awakened Ones can be represented by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess and cooperate with me under my command. Your Highness is the direct commander of the Awakened Ones. All your actions in the future must obey the orders of Her Highness the Crown Princess."
Even Sekhmet was startled because she had not heard Lu Ming ventilate with her beforehand.
In fact, she was originally the commander of the Awakened team, but in name only. What she wanted to do had to be decided through a four-person round table meeting.
The black energy that Devourer had originally poured towards Wolfe was suddenly swept away.
Wolfe sneered, "Chief Commander, there is no such thing as the Crown Princess in our world. The Commander-in-Chief is also a member of our world. He will understand our way of survival. I was very optimistic about you, but Commander-in-Chief, you are now ordering
I'm disappointed!"
Lu Ming smiled: "What is your world? There is only one world in the United Kingdom, a world managed by His Majesty the King and his cabinet ministers. Each of you has forgotten what kind of world this is after awakening your power. If the United Kingdom
The kingdom does not protect you, you are just a group of monsters, do you respect strength? As long as I label you as monsters, there will be no place for you in heaven or on earth. I will surround you and kill you, and I won’t have to use too much power.
One regiment is enough. If the current gryphon regiment wants to hunt you, it is like slaughtering a few dogs!"
Even Sekhmet's pretty face suddenly changed color, because this guy's words showed contempt for all awakened people.
Wolf suddenly stood up, but his face suddenly changed, his body suddenly softened, and he sat back on the chair extremely softly. The blood-red eyes gradually disappeared, but the angry flames were beating, and he stared at him with extremely angry eyes.
Lu Ming.
Lu Ming shook his head, "Power? Just a glass of water with enough anesthetic will make you lose your power. Put away your arrogance, you little monster! You just have to be recognized by the United Kingdom so that your life can go smoothly, but
This also gives you the illusion that you can despise the power of the United Kingdom and the so-called ordinary people?! And here, I represent the power of the United Kingdom and the power of ordinary people, and I have never
Think I’m one of you monsters who think society’s rules are nothing!”
Standing up and walking slowly, Lu Ming said calmly: "You must be very angry now, thinking that I am plotting against you, but after all, I can't send gunmen to shoot you to death, right? It would be even more wasteful to use aircraft and tanks to deal with you.
.So, it’s better for you to face me with gratitude!”
As he spoke, Lu Ming thought. He felt that he now looked like the military villain Big Boss who dealt with those with super powers in movies and TV shows in his previous life.
Suddenly, Lu Ming turned to look at Devourer Garnett, "And you, if you want to use small tricks, I won't be polite. You can swallow everyone's thoughts, right? But I have given the order, as long as I show
If your mental state is even slightly dazed, you will be shot to death randomly. Your body is as fragile as a piece of paper, and your body is not as good as that of ordinary children. If you are really shot, it will kill you! So, you
Not only don’t you try to target me, but you also need to pray devoutly, praying that I won’t be distracted by irrelevant things for a while..."
"By the way, let me tell you that the gunmen outside the single-sided glass mirror all wear special copper helmets. The bulletproof effect is not good, but they can't be controlled by you. In fact, I have studied your power. In the final analysis, you still have to
Using the human body's magnetic field to confuse people's minds. In the past, copper utensils were used to exorcise demons. The actual principle is that specially made copper utensils can shield the power of people like you, that is, they just isolate the human body's magnetic field. Of course, according to the rules I am talking about now, you should
You don’t understand, but you should understand what my measures mean.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The black robe that was opening suddenly stopped and did not dare to move.
Lu Ming looked at Sekhmet, "Your Highness, I didn't bring Lova here today because I just wanted to talk to you awakened people as an ordinary person. I respect you very much and don't dare to act in a targeted manner.
But my respect for you comes from your secular identity, not from your so-called awakening power."
Sekhmet's face softened slightly, but he said nothing.
Lu Ming had already turned around and walked out, saying calmly: "However, on the premise that you recognize my absolute command, I will also show due respect to your power. Since you think that your world power is respected, then
Tomorrow, you three will decide who will be the first commander of the Awakened Ones, but this first commander, like all soldiers, must obey my orders unconditionally!"
"You choose a place for a secret duel, and just let me know the result!"
The three of them were left in silence.
…
The terrace garden on the top floor of Building 1 is filled with colorful flowers and a light fragrance.
Only Sekhmet and Lu Ming sat opposite each other across the exquisite silver coffee table.
"Your Highness the Crown Princess, are you not angry?" Lu Ming asked with a smile.
Sekhmet wore a snow-white skirt, and with silver hair and silver eyes, she looked like an extremely cold Ex Machina.
At this time, she shook her head and said: "It's nothing, you did a good job." She glanced at Lu Ming, "It's just that you said at the end, let the three of us duel to find the winner, just tell you the result, you don't even
He cares about how we fight in a duel and treats us like wild beasts."
Lu Ming coughed dryly, "Of course that sentence is not directed at you. From any angle, the Swordsman Corps is the orthodox force that defends the kingdom, but the so-called power awakened by some of them, according to the rules of a thousand years ago, is
The evil ones are monsters and beasts that will be surrounded and suppressed. Modern society gives them shelter, but makes them think that they are higher than normal humans. I also hope that they can wake up."
Sekhmet said calmly: "Garnett has abstained from voting, and Wolfe also approached me and said that he is willing to recognize me as the leader of the awakened people here."
Lu Ming smiled: "The result is pretty good."
Sekhmet's silver eyes flashed, "I rarely meet opponents with equal strength to me. In fact, the first time I saw him, I wanted to fight him. This is a good opportunity.
We swordsmen originally have to gain actual combat experience through battle after battle, so that we can progress, but due to the lack of equally matched opponents, my strength has stagnated for a long time."
Lu Ming nodded: "An hour ago, Luova went to look for him. I agree. I think it is also good for him to hit a wall in a field that he is proud of. Wolf, I
Not disgusted."
Sekhmet's silver eyes turned slightly cold, "It seems that in the eyes of the commander-in-chief, Lova is your slave, and you don't care about her safety." Huo Ran stood up, "I'll go find her."
Lu Ming smiled and gestured: "Sit down, Luova will definitely win. She has a secret method to increase her strength in a short time. If she uses it, she is very sure of defeating you." She was within a few dozen kilometers around her.
Within, Luova can almost reach the level of Yuluan without the protection of her own power.
"Oh, I'm back!" Lu Ming smiled, "Say Luova, Luova is here."
Danilova's camouflage uniform was covered with mud and her face had some scratches. It looked like she had gone through a hard battle.
Lu Ming looked at her, a little confused: "Is his secret skill very powerful?"
Danilova scratched her head: "Master, don't blame me, I also want to practice with him for a while."
Lu Ming nodded slightly and understood in his heart that Danilova must not have used her full strength for a long time since she usually couldn't find a partner to practice with.
Looking at Danilova, Sekhmet's silver eyes flashed with brilliance.
Lu Ming smiled: "Well, you two can play against each other more often to increase your experience against the enemy."
Danilova said nothing and just stood behind Lu Ming.
At this moment, a burst of gunfire rang out from downstairs.
…
An hour later.
The underground secret room in Building 1.
Garnet the Devourer languished on the ground, and the hood of his black robe was pulled off, revealing an extremely pale face, but he was a very handsome young man, but his face was terrifyingly pale.
Behind him, five men and women were kneeling there and did not dare to resist.
Dozens of puppets with guns pointed at them from front to back and left to right.
"Puppetmaker" Delia, single-handedly wiped out seven members of the Thorn Grass family.
Because the seven Garnetts all have abilities related to telepathy, they have no effect on the puppets at all.
One of the seven people disobeyed Garnett's instructions and wanted to sneak into Building 1 to deal with the chief who treated them like pigs and dogs.
As a result, he was shot to death by Delia's puppet security team, which was the gunshot that Lu Ming heard just now.
After discovering the identity of the visitor, Lu Ming ordered Delia to arrest all members of the Thorn Grass family.
At this time, Delia's skull with big eyes and shining eyes loomed in the shadows behind the rows of wine barrels in the basement.
Lu Ming looked at it and sighed. In fact, the so-called puppet master should have been a necromancer thousands of years ago. He was very powerful and the price he paid was terrible.
Just like Delia, she has a twisted personality. She doesn't interact with anyone else at all except herself, and prefers to hang out with corpses. She even sleeps with corpses in the basement at night.
"Delia, shoot them all! Those who launch rebellions on the front line without authorization will be dealt with according to the military regulations of the United Kingdom!" Lu Ming waved his hand.
"don't want!"
"ah!"
"Spare your life!"
The six members of the Thorn Grass group were so frightened that they peed their pants. Ever since they awakened their power and received all kinds of preferential treatment, they felt that they and others were all superior gods and no longer belonged to the category of ordinary humans.
But you don’t want to be shot?!
They have never encountered such a desperate situation, but they are more spineless than ordinary people.
Garnett's body was shaking like chaff and he stammered: "You can't kill us, you can't..."
Lu Ming sneered: "You still don't understand me? Why can't I kill you because you are all members of the Thorn Grass family? In fact, don't you regard me as your enemy? Now I have such a good excuse,
I won’t take the opportunity to get rid of you? You are very humorous!”
The assault rifles in the hands of the puppets were pressed against the heads of Garnett and others.
"No, no, please!" Garnett wailed and stepped back.
He secretly wanted to control the mind of this demonic chief, but when he found that it was completely useless, he felt that the world had collapsed.
"Of course, you still have a choice, but you need to be willing for this choice to take effect." Lu Ming had six more black collars in his hand and said with a smile: "You can wear them and become my slaves."
In the dim light, Lu Ming felt that his current smile might look a bit like a devil.
Of course, the black collar is not the Central Continent Slave Lock. Not to mention it is a waste for them to use it. So far, Bizhu and Liuli have cooperated and have not restored a few of them.
This kind of collar is somewhat similar to the Slave Control Lock. It is a super weakened version. Normally, it will not enhance the power of the person being controlled, unless the master temporarily borrows some of their power. Of course, this master must also have Lu Ming's strength increase.
The constitution of the device.
Moreover, the master can also draw their power for his own use.
Of course, the most important function is to control the mind of the slave who wears the collar, so that he no longer dares to resist the master, and the thoughts in his head can be detected by the master at all times.
Lu Ming threw the collars in front of them one by one and said calmly: "I will count dozens, you can choose for yourself, life or death."
