The four looked at Duke and said, "Aren't you afraid that we won't come back after we've had enough of this place?"
Duke faintly smiled and said without a hint of worry, "You guys can try. No matter where you are, I can find you. Even if you guys split up, it's useless. When the time comes, you guys will end up like your boss. He can turn you guys into masters, but I can also turn you guys into trash. It's best if you don't try to resist me. I can play with Freemasonry, but playing with you four is really like playing with ants."
The four didn't speak anymore and turned around to leave.
The butler curiously asked his master, "Can you really find them?"
"Every day, their food is infused with something that belongs to me. I can sense it. It doesn't matter where they hide, as long as I find them, I can make them fall to the ground in pain." The Duke didn't seem to care.
After the butler also left, his face gradually turned gloomy.
Looking at the wrinkles between his brows in the mirror, he angrily and angrily kicked the mirror, shattering it.
Then, he stood in front of the castle's window and looked at the river in the distance.
"Do you know why I can keep the others, but not you? Because you deserve to die, you actually want to promote genetic technology? If all the humans in this world are genetically modified and can no longer provide me with fresh blood, then it will be my doomsday! This is the ultimate reason why I won't allow this world to make breakthroughs in genetic biotechnology! "
Duke gritted his teeth in his heart.
Although he was a geneticist, he needed the fresh blood of ordinary people to provide his genes with nourishment. This way, it could nourish his internal organs and keep him young forever. This was the biggest secret that allowed him to live to this day!
If one day, ordinary people were all genetically modified, then he would no longer have blood to provide for him. At that time, he would die of thirst, just like a mummy. Strictly speaking, his bones and skin were already 200 years old. Once they stopped providing for him, he would lose his luster and immediately wither.
It could be said that Xu Cheng's ambition really touched Duke's bottom line!
After leaving the castle, Chekov silently looked back and took note of this castle.
Disai looked at him and said, "Are we really going to do as he said and destroy Mandala?"
"What else can we do?" Zhang Xiu's expression was one of defeat. "If I'm not wrong, there's already a blood poison in our bodies similar to the one our leader has. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that he could find us no matter where we went."
Vara: "I'm very curious, why did he want to destroy Datura? Frankly speaking, with his assets and wealth, Datura can't pose any threat to any of his businesses. "
Chekov retracted his gaze and said, "Now Mandala is under Stansen's control. To be honest, I still have some friendship with him. I can't do it."
Diesel: "Then let me do it."
Walla said, "I'm starting to hate myself for being like this. To be honest, back then, I might as well have been like Mario. Although I'm strong now, I just can't feel happy. These days aren't as good as when I was on the run. At least I was happy then."
"Who isn't?" Desai sighed. "It's already in the past. Who doesn't want to stand out? Let's go. "
Chekov looked at the castle from afar. "I will remember this place. One day, if possible, I will kill this monster with my own hands!"
The other three sighed. "If that day really comes, call us!"
Regarding the betrayal, the four of them regretted it and took it to heart, but there was nothing they could do.
Even someone as powerful as their leader was finished, how could they fight against the Duke?
In fact, Xu Cheng didn't blame them at all. At least, when they fought side by side with him, they had all been through life and death situations together. It was just that sometimes, when a normal person was charging forward with an indomitable will and encountered a powerful enemy like the irresistible force of nature, there would only be two paths left in front of you.
Moving forward would only lead to death.
Taking a step back would open up a whole new world.
So, regarding their choices, Xu Cheng didn't hate them.
At least they gave him, Li Wei, and the others enough time to run. What Xu Cheng blamed was that these brothers followed him, but he didn't give them the best. Because he wasn't strong enough, the team fell apart.
The Duke was right, he was just a drop in the bucket compared to what Xu Cheng had given them.
His brothers all came from the Land of Mercenaries. Didn't they fight on the battlefield to stand out?
They had given enough loyalty, but Xu Cheng still hadn't given them any benefits. Everyone would become numb to it. Too many dreams and chicken soup for the soul couldn't compare to the Duke's naked benefits. Especially after Zhang Xiu's words, Xu Cheng felt a little touched.
He escaped from the country as a criminal, and he didn't want to go back as an international criminal.
Lying in the bathtub, Xu Cheng closed his eyes.
As for the disbandment of The Stranger, he still couldn't let it go.
In this life, he had experienced the pain of losing his parents, the grudges between clans, the hypocrisy between countries, political intrigue, and the weakness of human nature. Everything wasn't as simple as he had imagined.
To be honest, he was a little tired.
When he was crippled, he already started to feel tired.
But he couldn't.
This person that he had uprooted and revealed the truth behind the scenes, he needed to end him. Of course, he could also be the one to be ended.
But one of them had to die.
One was for his own empire.
And the other was for his wife.
Two tigers couldn't live on the same mountain, and one of them had to fall to stop this vicious battle.
Not long after, Haber pushed open the door and walked in.
Xu Cheng didn't even have the intention to open his eyes. Even without the ultrasound, he knew that without his permission, the maids wouldn't be able to open the door and come in.
"To be honest, you don't seem to like big sizes, alcohol, women, power, and money that can blind men's minds. But I'm curious, what are you trying to achieve by doing all these? If it's for all the women in the world, but you love your wife, you have more money than you can spend. You can't even finish spending your money. If you want to have power, just based on what you have now, you can call upon hundreds of people. You can definitely be counted as one of the top 10 most influential men in the world. However, if I were to say that you're a good person, a great person, and a Lei Feng of the Hua Nation, then I would say that you're an unforgivable person. I can't see through you, "Haber sighed as he leaned against the door and smoked a cigarette.
Xu Cheng finally opened his eyes. He didn't know why, but he saw Lin Chuxue's peaceful smile in the bathtub.
After taking a deep breath, he seemed to have seen through everything and said, "In fact, it's very simple. This is the counterattack of a young man, an orphan who has suffered all kinds of injustice and has been oppressed to the bottom of society. He doesn't like money, women, or power. All he wants is to live! He just wants to tell the world that if he wants, he can have what everyone else has! "
Then, Xu Cheng looked up at Haber and said, "The last sentence was said to me by my wife."
Haber bitterly smiled. "Sometimes, men really do get impulsive because of a woman's words, but your impulsive action basically pierced through the sky. I just want to say, your woman is scarier than you."
