Inside The Black Mist Chapter 1098: Dirty Deal
Qianwu opened the room, and there was an old man standing outside the door. The old man had silver hair and a thin figure, as if the heat of the city of scavenger drained all his moisture, his face was wrinkled and wrinkled.
This is Qiongwu's butler, one of the few people in this house. In fact, the butler is about the same age as Qiongwu, who rescued him from a group of refugees back then.
For more than forty years, this butler has been following him, silently witnessing that Qiongwu has become the leader of one of the five major organizations in Scavengers City from an unknown person.
In Qiongwu's heart, the butler is someone who can be trusted, of course, there is a limit to trust.
With forty years of experience, Qiongwu will always only trust himself, never truly and completely trust others.
"Mr. Luthor is here. He wants to report to you some problems in the organization during this period." The butler said in a low voice. Such a long time is a very rare thing.
As he is old, he can no longer speak loudly, and if he was replaced by another owner, he might have been thrown out like a wild dog long ago.
He is very satisfied to be able to continue to serve Qiongwu. He maintains the habit he has developed over the past forty years, always bowing his head to the man in front of him.
Qiong Wu hummed, picked up the 'Blood Drink' casually, wherever he went, he would carry a weapon with him even when sleeping, this was his habit.
They first walked in the quiet and narrow corridor. As the leader of Blood City, Qiongwu's house has nothing to do with luxury. Even with his ability, he can live in a better place.
In fact, before he became Rank 7, he did live in a rather luxurious house with dozens of servants.
But after he was promoted to rank 7, he saw a completely different world. After seeing the scenery of that world, everything in the world was no longer in Qiongwu's sight.
Now all he sees are higher mountains, wanting to see the magnificent scenery. He put all the resources at his disposal on the road of pursuing power, and used every resource to pile up stone steps to the sky.
He minimizes material enjoyment, firstly, he doesn't have much pursuit of this aspect, and secondly, he wants to squeeze out every drop of resources that can be squeezed out.
He used those things to purchase the materials needed for the sublimation medium, and spent at least half of each year in the reverse world of the fortresses in various places to improve his sublimation progress and hone his combat skills.
If it weren't for the blood city that brought him considerable benefits every year, he would have left the waste city long ago. Of course, he didn't feel the slightest bit guilty about what he had done.
In Qiongwu's world, the weak are the cornerstones on which the strong stand. Even if he doesn't know how many families and wives are separated every year, he will not think that he is doing something wrong.
At his age, at this level, his beliefs have long been stronger than fine steel, and will not be easily shaken.
And this has nothing to do with right or wrong.
Pushing open the door, Qiong Wu stepped into the dining room, and saw the deputy commander Luther who looked a little uneasy.
In fact, Qiongwu prefers another deputy commander, and Jin Sheng's behavior is more in line with his appetite. Luther, a native of the Westland, always seems timid in many things.
But Luthor has Luthor's advantages. He is quite talented in management and is good at dealing with various forces. After being promoted to rank 7, Qiong Wu has rarely asked Blood City, and the work in the organization is usually arranged by Luthor and Jin Sheng.
Everything seemed to be in order inside Luthor's master and outside Jin Sheng's master.
It's a pity.
Jin Sheng died not long ago, because of the "God's Legacy" in Deep Sea Fort.
That's one of Qiongwu's goals, as long as it can increase his strength, he will investigate even how illusory things are.
As his right-hand man, Jin Sheng died in Donglu, which really surprised him.
Seeing Qiongwu appear, Luther got up quickly, and after saying hello, he sat down with some trepidation.
After being held hostage by the "Thunder Council" yesterday, he had no choice but to give Qiongwu's information. I came here today not only to report on organizational affairs, but also to see if something happened to the leader.
Seeing that Qiongwu was fine now, Luthor felt a little conflicted, with a feeling of reassurance and resignation.
Reassuring to see that Qiongwu is safe and sound, and has not been injured because of his 'confession'.
The unwillingness is also because Qiongwu is still alive, otherwise, Blood City will be in his pocket in the future.
Qianwu took a seat at the top of the dining table, with the 'Blood Drink' at his feet, a chef and his assistants pushed a dining cart in, and put the contents on the table one by one.
The appetizer is a fried fish that looks very ordinary, but in the desert area, in the scavenger city, not just anyone can eat fish. It is even more valuable.
Qianwu picked up the knife and fork, cut a piece of fried fish, dipped it in the sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, and felt the pleasure the food brought him.
On one side, listening to Luther's report.
There was only one bone left in the fried fish, so the butler brought him a roast chicken and poured him a glass of golden wine.
Qiong Wu took a sip of the wine first, and then divided the roast chicken into many pieces, each of which was about the same size.
Just like that, after Qiongwu ate up every dish on the table, Luther's report had just been completed.
Wiping his mouth with a napkin, Qiong Wu, who had not opened his mouth, said in a flat tone: "Your heartbeat is one-third faster than usual. You are very nervous. What's going on?"
Luther swallowed, lowered his head and said, "This quarter, our income has decreased by 20%, and our subordinates are very panicked, so..."
"Don't worry, I won't punish you, but next quarter, you have to find a way to increase your income."
"Yes, then I, resign?"
"Go."
After Luther left, the old housekeeper whispered: "The deputy commander arrived at Yueshanglou last night about 40 minutes later than usual, but he went out at the same time as usual."
Qianwu glanced at him and said calmly, "It's okay."
Standing up, picking up the 'Blood Drink', Qiong Wu walked towards the study.
A moment later, he pushed open the door of the study, and suddenly saw that the safe in the corner was cut open, and the contents inside disappeared.
In an instant.
A murderous aura erupted in the room, and everyone in the room, including the old housekeeper, passed out the moment they came into contact with this murderous aura.
Then, Qiong Wu heard a voice saying: "I never expected that the Church of War is related to a human trafficking organization and buys many slaves from you every year. Why do they want such slaves? "
The voice rang out from the window of the study, and Qiong Wu squeezed his 'blood drink' tightly, not daring to take it lightly.
This person was able to not attract his attention until he made a sound. Whether it is strength or ability, it is not easy!
Qianwu slowly turned around to look, and said slowly: "It's more useful. Exploring the Negative Realm requires a lot of manpower, and building a church-specific base in the Negative Realm also requires manpower."
"Furthermore, the Church of War invests a large number of soldiers in the Adverse World every year, and sacrifices a large number of soldiers every year. They always need to be replenished. And some dangerous tasks need someone to complete them. With so many manpower gaps, they Why don't you want slaves?"
Qianwu finally saw the man.
The other party looked very young, at most 20 years old, with silver-white hair, bright eyes, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't know where he had broken into.
In his hand is an open electronic board, which contains detailed records and information exchanges between 'Blood City' and the church.
Seeing this person, Qiong Wu flashed some information in his mind, and said in a deep voice, "Are you the newly recruited member of the 'Thunder Council'?"
Qianwu guessed correctly, the one holding the electronic board at this moment is Tianyang.
After finding a suitable battlefield in the Inverse Realm, he returned to the Scavengers City, sneaked into the house while Qiongwu was eating, opened his safe, and got the electronic board.
Of course, Tian Yang didn't know beforehand that there was such an important thing in the safe. He was just looking for a 'bait' at first.
Unexpectedly, they discovered the dirty deal between the Church of War and Blood City.
"It's really a bit surprising that the War Church, one of the four major churches, is actually doing slave trading. If this thing is spread, I'm afraid it will be blown up?"
Tianyang shook the electronic board in his hand, said with a smile, he believed that this was a heavyweight 'bait' to facilitate his next actions.
"If you spread it, do you think you can still survive?" Qiong Wu stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me, and I can help you gain a firm foothold in the Thunder Council, and even help you eradicate all Two enemies."
"For example, Lin Qianfan."
Tianyang laughed: "You are so generous, but I appreciate your kindness. It's just a Thunder Council, and it's just a place for me to stay temporarily."
"If I want to gain a firm foothold here, I am enough, and I don't need the strength of others."
Qianwu smiled instead of anger: "There is a lot of tone, I don't like the Thunder Council, don't you want to be a member of the Golden Council?"
The corner of Tianyang's mouth raised, and he said relaxedly: "Why not, I'm still young, and I still have countless opportunities. Give me a few more years of hard work, I think, it may not be possible to occupy a seat in the Golden Tribunal How difficult it is."
Qiong Wu was taken aback, he didn't expect this young congressman to be so ambitious.
He quickly adjusted his mood and chuckled softly: "I don't want to break your dream, but if you don't put down that electronic board, I think you may not even see the sun tomorrow."
"Really?"
Tianyang put away the electronic board, smiled and said, "Let's make a deal."
Hearing that Tianyang was going to make a deal, Qiongwu relaxed instead, he nodded and said: "You should have done this a long time ago, tell me, what do you want?"
"Give me an arm, and disband the Blood City, and I'll return the electronic board to you." Tian Yang said without hesitation, as if making a very relaxed and simple condition.
Qianwu's expression froze slightly, and after a while, he squeezed out three words: "You're courting death!"
