Walking on the streets of Rizhao Stronghold, Xu Ye couldn't help but sigh that the development here is indeed rapid.
Buildings stand on both sides, and there are even commercial streets selling all kinds of luxury goods. It's hard to believe that this city was built just over two years ago.
"Brother, do you need me to be your guide? I have lived here for almost half a year, and I am very familiar with every place here!" At this time, a young man suddenly stopped in front of Xu Ye,
This young man looks very fifteen or sixteen years old, not at all like a child in the apocalypse. He has a sunny smile on his face, which makes it easy for others to like him.
When the young man saw Xu Ye looking at him in confusion, he quickly said: "Just call me Xiaochong. I came here not long after it was built. The Rizhao stronghold is very big. You will definitely need a guide. Where is the food?"
It’s delicious, and I know all the spectacular sights.”
"Okay, then show me around." Xu Ye thought for a moment and agreed. This was his first time coming to Rizhao Stronghold, so it would be nice to have a local to lead the way.
"This blacksmith shop was opened by Mr. Wang. He used to be the leader of a gathering place with thousands of people. Later, he surrendered to the Rizhao stronghold. Now he also holds a high position in the Rizhao stronghold..."
The young man took Xu Ye on a tour on the streets. He was quite eloquent and introduced each shop in great detail.
Xu Ye asked the young man to take him shopping in this bustling commercial street for nearly an hour, and then purchased a lot of daily necessities and practical gadgets.
In the center of the Rizhao stronghold, there is a hundred-meter-high building that stands there like a tower. This is the most majestic building in the Rizhao stronghold, and it is also a restricted area that no one except some big shots are allowed to approach.
This building is called Rizhao, and it is also the residence of the leader of the Rizhao stronghold. There is a room on the top floor of the building. The decoration of the room is very simple.
A man was sitting on his back behind a desk. He raised his head slightly and could see through the glass window of the room the buildings below.
The man's mouth couldn't help but reveal a smile. He had built this prosperous stronghold with his own hands. Looking at the bustling streets below and the pedestrians coming and going, he felt a sense of satisfaction.
"Dong dong dong!" At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a grim look appeared on the man's face, but it only passed away briefly. He said lightly: "Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and a burly man rushed in. He said angrily: "Chief, have you really decided to do this?"
The man did not look back, but there was no expression on his face: "Didn't I tell you before, I will never change the decision I made."
The burly man clenched his fists angrily, gritted his teeth and said: "If you really do this, I and others will no longer be loyal to you. Many brothers have already treated you..."
Before he could say anything, the man suddenly turned around, with a startling cold light in his eyes: "Are you threatening me?"
The terrifying murderous aura radiating from the man's eyes made the burly man's heart shrink suddenly, and he felt as if he was being targeted by a vicious wolf, but the burly man did not retreat.
Although he felt that his bones were groaning under the pressure of this powerful momentum, he still stared into the man's eyes without fear.
"Haha, we are all brothers." Suddenly the man smiled, and his breath suddenly converged. The burly man felt that his whole body was soaked with cold sweat, his feet went weak, and he almost lost his balance.
The man pointed to the seat opposite: "Sit down."
The burly man shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Even if you kill me today, I still need an explanation. He was the first to follow you like us, but why did you kill him?"
The man said indifferently: "If you make a mistake, you must be punished. I think I am worthy of anyone, and all the people who follow me have received everything they deserve. But he has brought a stigma to our Rizhao stronghold, and once it was
We have been pushed to the forefront. If the Rizhao stronghold had not now possessed enough strength to intimidate the younger generation, I am afraid that it would have perished directly at the hands of some people who claim to be righteous. His move has betrayed the entire Shenfeng City. There is nothing wrong with me sentencing him to death.
Isn't it? Otherwise, how can we convince the public?"
The burly man clenched his fists and whispered: "You have changed."
The man's body trembled, and an angry look flashed in his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't mention this matter again. I still have official business to deal with. If you have nothing else to do, just go out. If you want to leave, I will personally see you off."
I’d be very grateful if you’d like to stay!”
The burly man took a deep breath. He felt that the man in front of him had really changed and turned into a complete stranger. He said nothing more and silently turned around and left.
"Alas..." The man lay on the chair, feeling tired for a while, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Haha, is it really okay for you to do this?" Suddenly a voice sounded in the room, and a figure wearing a black robe appeared in the corner of the room.
It was clearly daytime, but his figure seemed to be hidden in the shadows, blurry and invisible. Even if the sunlight shone on his face from the window, it was swallowed up by the darkness.
The man in black robes was not surprised by the appearance of the man in black. He said: "What problem will there be? Do they still dare to attack me? Even if they all leave, it is not a big deal for the current Rizhao stronghold. Their positions
But there are many capable people who want to sit."
The man in black robe shook his head: "No, I'm not saying that losing them will shake the foundation of the Rizhao stronghold. I'm saying that you personally ordered the execution of the brothers who followed you in the past. Isn't it too irrational?"
The man frowned: "This guy let go of a large number of transformers in our laboratory, exposed our experiments, and caused a lot of trouble. Many forces also caught the escaped transformers, and after studying them, they all have questions about genetic modification."
Technology is very interesting.”
"If it weren't for him, we could have concentrated on research and saved a lot of trouble. But now the entire Northeast region and even forces outside the Northeast region are eyeing us. This situation is all his fault. I was wrong to sentence him to death.
Huh?" the man said coldly.
The man in black robe chuckled: "Of course I'm not saying that you handled the matter unfairly. It would be an exaggeration for that kid to be executed at Ling Chi, but I'm saying that the way you handled this matter was wrong."
"Then what should I do?" The man was confused.
The man in black robe said: "You have to worry about your reputation when you announce that he will be executed. After all, he was your earliest follower. You can pretend to forgive him, claim to the outside world that you have sent him to some dangerous place to atone for his sins, and then secretly
Give him..."
The man suddenly looked at the man in black robe, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Do you want me to become an insidious villain?"
The man in black robe laughed: "I'm just making suggestions, don't be angry."
The man snorted coldly and then said: "How did things go?"
Hearing the inquiry, the man in black robes' eyes flashed with excitement: "It's almost ready. We are only one or two small steps away from completely completing it. As long as we successfully create it, there is no way we can compete with it at this stage.
By then we will not only be able to easily unify the entire Northeast region, but also expand our power, and sooner or later we will be able to unify the entire earth!"
There was also a look of fascination in the man's eyes: "This is the real salvation. It's just about sacrificing a few people. I believe they will be willing, haha."
There was a look of fascination in the man's eyes, as if he had seen a beautiful scene in the future where he would sit alone on a high platform and control the entire world.
