At this time, Li Xiaoyan told Charles his thoughts concisely and concisely in just a few words.
In fact, after completing the tasks assigned by the system, he could have returned to the real world immediately.
But the elixir of immortality that Immorton then mentioned made his heart agitate.
As the high priest of the Pharaoh, Immorton has mastered alchemy, which is the prerequisite for everything. Now, as long as he collects the best spiritual treasures containing the three attributes of earth, fire, and water, he can refine the legendary
The elixir of life, for this plan, he will naturally use all means to collect these materials.
The fact that Carson Adventure Company was able to maintain its operations and have good revenue despite the Great Depression shows that it has strong strength and strong connections and is able to gain a foothold in the undercurrent of the New York business world.
Among the exploration companies, there are plans for space adventures that look forward to the future and require huge sums of money, and there are plans to salvage ancient ships and sunken treasures in mysterious seas.
Exploration, especially exploring unknown and mysterious areas, is full of great risks, but there will also be proportional benefits.
If these huge projects were not supported by strong connections and financial resources, they would probably not be able to operate such a large project. Although Immorton has believers and believers to dispatch, his scope of influence is only limited to
If Egypt and its surrounding areas were to extend further, they would be beyond the scope of the protection of Anubis, the God of Death. For the sake of comprehensive consideration, he would look for other partners to help him search for these heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
After finishing speaking, Li Xiao stared at Charles, wanting to see how he would react.
"It's a deal, there's no problem with it." Charles rubbed his palms with gleaming eyes, and agreed quite readily.
And he didn't wait for Li Xiao's instructions. Charles quickly got up from the sofa, made Li Xiao a cup of hot coffee himself, and then hurriedly went to execute the instructions: "You sit here for a while, I will go and give the instructions now."
The manpower below, ask them to step up the collection of intelligence and information in this area, and I will notify you as soon as there is any news, so don't delay your important matters."
Charles's cooperation made Li Xiao slightly stunned, even a little unexpected. He nodded calmly, just looking at Charles's hurriedly leaving figure, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
color.
But as the saying goes, when it comes, make peace with it. He gently sucked the coffee cup into his palm with one hand, and began to sip it slowly with a contented look.
…
…
&bsp;After returning to his office and locking the door, Charles no longer maintained the false warmth on his face, and his expression instantly darkened.
"Hmph, this ungrateful guy not only wants to steal the treasure, but he even dares to negotiate with me. Does he really call me the manager for nothing?"
Cursing fiercely, Charles returned to his desk, picked up the phone, dialed the numbers on it a few times, and made a call.
"Someone is causing trouble in the company now, send me a group of people... Also, remember to ask them to bring the guys with them!"
After hanging up the phone, Charles pinched the fat waist of the bucket with both hands and sneered triumphantly: "All the treasures of the pharaohs of all ages must fall into my pocket."
The reason why he made a promise to Li Xiao just now was to stabilize him temporarily. He didn't listen at all about the properties of materials and treasures. At this time, all he saw was the treasure that was priceless and rich enough to rival the country.
Charles understood that Li Xiao would not take such a huge amount of wealth with him. However, he did not believe that someone could keep any information if a gun was put to his head?
Charles rubbed his hands, and the greed in his eyes was even more intense. There is a saying that when the profit exceeds 100%, capital dares to trample on any law. Although this is a criticism of capitalists, it is Charles
A creed that he has always believed in. Not to mention, in Charles' opinion, he was just using some necessary means to take back what he deserved.
When he thought of this, Charles was in a good mood. After adjusting his collar, he strode out of the office. At this time, he couldn't wait to see the man begging for mercy and mourning.
He was crying and miserable.
…
…
Not long after, a six-cylinder Pontiac roared on the road and stopped in front of the office building where Carson Adventure Company was located. A group of tall and muscular people got out of the open door.
Man in black.
Li Xiao, who was sitting in the reception room, was still sipping coffee slowly and calmly. The next moment, he suddenly saw a group of well-trained men in black surrounding Charles and swarming into the room. These men in black were more powerful than others.
He is taller than an ordinary person, and under the bulging black suit, his muscles are strong and clear, and each of them looks like he has extraordinary skills. Among them, there are many soldiers who have retired from the US Army's special forces, and there is a ruthless look in their eyes.
They were very energetic, and many of them had guns in their hands, obviously they were well prepared.
"How is it? The coffee tastes pretty good, doesn't it?" Charles walked out of the crowd with his hands behind his hands, a contemptuous smile on his lips: "As long as you tell me where the treasure is hidden, I can guarantee you
Leave here safe and sound, and you can drink authentic espresso like this every day. If you are sensible... don't even think about going against me!"
Seeing this situation, Li Xiao couldn't help but frown slightly.
He was still surprised just now. When he mentioned cooperation, Charles unexpectedly showed an extremely cheerful expression. He actually took advantage of that moment to bring in reinforcements.
But it seems that this is not the first time they have done something like this. After all, in this era of the United States, the accumulation of original capital is the interweaving and conflict of interests. Under its bright and bright surface
, full of blood and dirty methods, but what I have to say is that they may have found the wrong person this time.
Not only did Li Xiao show no fear, but he also shook his head and sneered.
"Why are you laughing?!" Charles asked.
"There was an opportunity for cooperation and development in front of you, but you, who seemed to be smart but actually foolish, failed to seize this opportunity. In addition, you did not know that you were about to die, so I feel for you.
Sad." Li Xiao said.
&bsp;"It seems that this yellow-skinned monkey has gone completely crazy. We need to repair him!" Charles snorted coldly, with a look of contempt on his face. With such a huge disparity in the number of people, he really wanted to fight.
When he got up, he didn't know how he died, but he dared to speak arrogantly. When he contacted him about the fire and earth properties materials he was looking for before, Charles subconsciously thought that the other party must have encountered him during this trip to the City of the Undead.
What dirty things caused his spirit to become crazy and abnormal.
Charles waved his hand and made a gesture to order action.
After receiving instructions from Charles, the current thugs showed ferocious looks. Amidst the bursts of shouts, they punched or kicked, carrying fierce winds, one after another.
He jumped towards Li Xiao.
Just when Charles twisted his neck and was thinking about what methods he should use later to interrogate where the treasure was hidden. At the next moment, he was completely shocked by what he saw in front of him!
Before Li Xiao could clearly see how Li Xiao took action, those tough and strong men were screaming in pain, like deflated rubber balls, and shot out one after another, and some were like a puddle of mashed mud.
The ground was smashed against the wall, and some were beaten so hard that their bodies were broken and their chests were collapsed. Some were lying on the ground whimpering, and some were killed on the spot.
In just a few breaths of time, these thugs suffered heavy injuries, but they did not hurt a single hair on Li Xiao's body. The most important thing is that at this time, Li Xiao was still sitting leisurely on the sofa.
His expression looked extremely relaxed, as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, a black-clothed thug couldn't hold himself back anymore and raised his pistol and pointed it at Li Xiao. "Idiot, don't shoot, I'm going to catch him alive!" Hearing the sound of gunshots, Charles scolded the man.
Dao, but at this time it is obviously too late.
I saw sparks bursting out from the dark muzzle of the gun, and a bullet came out and hit Li Xiao.
Charles' heart skipped a beat, but when he turned around and looked at him again, he couldn't help but gasp. At this time, Li Xiao's index and middle fingers stood up, making a virtual pinching motion.
.
And if you look carefully, you can find that between the two fingers, there is clearly a yellow warhead that is smoking hot. Li Xiao flicked it with his finger, and the bullet quickly turned back along the road and went straight.
The ground sank into the body of the previous thug, and blood flowed. The man's body shook uncontrollably for a few times, and then he fell to the ground.
"Bang bang bang!"
Then, there was another intensive sound of gunfire, and bullets were fired wildly. However, the sofa was already empty at this time. Li Xiao moved, and at super fast speed, in this narrow space,
It pulled out a series of swift afterimages, making it impossible for the gunmen to catch them.
After the gunfire subsided and the room returned to calm, the shadows left by Li Xiao in the air finally condensed and stood still again. However, at this time, a handful appeared on his open palm.
The pistol and the removed bullets finally turned into fine powder in Li Xiao's clenched fists and flew away.
At the same time, there were more or less blood holes in the chests and necks of the gunmen. They all opened their mouths in disbelief, and finally fell to the ground with expressions of shock and pain.
For a moment, the strong smell of blood suddenly filled the entire room.
