Ling Lan thought for a while and said, "Little Four, you decide what to do!"
Was she giving up all her power? This was the first time Little Four had been given so much autonomy. Without another word, he rushed into the line and helped his boss settle it.
In the Li family's private room:
The assistant in charge of bidding saw that his bid was overtaken by another competitor. He didn't even think before sending out the bid he had already entered.
"Sending …" After waiting for a long time and another round of bidding, the assistant felt that something was wrong. He quickly raised his head and shouted, "Boss, we seem to have a problem here."
The Li family's representative, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. He asked coldly, "What happened?"
"The main auction house didn't receive the bid I just gave. They didn't report our bid. He was the one who gave the highest bid in that round.
The Li family's representative's expression changed slightly. He immediately ordered, "Contact the organizer and ask them to solve this problem as soon as possible." After saying that, he couldn't help but curse in his heart. If he didn't successfully bring back the information of ATOMIC BEAM BAZOOKA, his big boss wouldn't let him off so easily.
He was very clear that his Big Boss wanted to use this information to increase the bargaining chip of their faction in the competition for the Patriarch position … Thinking of the consequences of failure, sweat began to form on his forehead. He lost his initial calmness and a trace of anxiety appeared between his brows.
"Boss, I've already asked the organizer for help," the assistant immediately replied.
The Li family's representative nodded. He patiently waited for the organizer to solve the problem.
In the Ye family's private room:
"Boss, the other party didn't accept our bid this time." The assistant in charge of bidding saw that his bid wasn't included in the new round of bidding so he immediately reported the situation to his boss.
The Ye family's representative frowned. He knew the background of Aoqi's underground auction house. Although it was a black market on the surface, it was actually organized by the government. It was just that some of the items were smuggled. They couldn't explain the origin of the items to the various countries so they purposely turned these items into black market auctions.
However, their security and defensive measures were the best in Aoqi. It was impossible for something as small as this to happen … The first thought that came to the Ye family representative's mind was, was the auction under attack?
"Major Lu, there shouldn't be any problems with the shell we borrowed this time, right?" The representative of the Ye family asked the shrewd-looking young man sitting beside him with a serious expression. He was wondering if there was an organization targeting the Federation, the military, and the Ye family.
"No problem. Even an imperial hacker wouldn't be able to find any flaws." Major Lu said firmly. That was something that many imperial level hackers had worked together to create. It wasn't something that one or two imperial level hackers would be able to see through.
The representative of the Ye family was confident. He turned to his assistant and said, "Contact the organizer and ask them to solve it immediately." Since that was the case, they could take the opportunity to force the organizer to give them an explanation. Privately, he hoped that this malfunction would last longer. It would be best if it lasted until the end of the auction. Then, he could ask the organizer to give him a copy of the information at a low price. He wanted to use the lowest price to get what he wanted. This was what he wanted the most.
The businessman with the surname Jiang also noticed this problem. He smiled and waited patiently for the organizer to give them an explanation just like the Ye family.
Although the three strongest competitors were gone, the other competitors didn't know about this. They were still passionately bidding for this new energy weapon that Aobu Ruoya said could change the entire world. The price even rushed to a jaw-dropping sky-high price …
"They have all gone crazy!" Ling Lan looked at this scene coldly. She guessed that the reason why this world was constantly at war was because humans had shown their selfish desires too vividly. There was no way to back down, which was why this world was filled with smoke and gunpowder.
However, waiting patiently didn't yield any results. Little Four had already cut off all communications between the three private rooms. Brother Xu, who was in charge of monitoring all the private rooms, could only see what Little Four wanted him to see. The organizer's data was all correct. It was just that the three private rooms didn't make any more bids.
Although they were surprised, they didn't suspect anything. After all, it was the guests' right to make a bid. They had no right to interfere.
Of course, if they were a little more suspicious and carefully compared the images from the three private rooms, they might be able to see some flaws. This was because there were a few frames that were similar to the ones from earlier. However, Little Four had separated the frames very well. Unless one was an expert, they wouldn't be able to tell.
"Why aren't they here yet?" Seeing that the number of bidders was decreasing, the organizer didn't send a single message. They didn't even send someone to their private room. The representative of the Li family couldn't take it anymore.
The guard standing at the door opened a screen under his boss's instructions. He entered a long string of passwords and prepared to open the door to the private room.
However, the door didn't respond at all. At this moment, everyone knew that something had happened.
They immediately tried to use their communicators to contact the people outside. However, they found that their own communicators weren't responding either. They were like turtles in a jar, unable to contact the outside world. Everyone's expression changed. They suspected that the organizer was targeting them!
Under the signal of the Li family's representative, the guard was about to pull out his beam gun and break the door open. However, the assistant who had been staring at the optical computer suddenly exclaimed, "Boss, look at this."
The representative of the Li Clan immediately rushed over and saw a sinister-looking skull on the A.I. screen. The skull even opened its mouth and spat out a string of words, "ATOMIC BEAM BAZOOKA (Nuclear Particle Fusion Bomb) data belongs to me!" I won't allow you to touch it! If you obediently go back, I'll let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, I'll be very, very angry, and then …
The same image appeared in the other two private rooms. After this string of words appeared, another image appeared. The Li family's and Ye family's ancestral residences, as well as the official residence of the power behind the businessman surnamed Jiang, suddenly exploded and turned into ashes in a raging fire.
"Everything is destroyed. So, please don't make me angry!
"Lastly, please call me the Son of God!"
After this sentence, all the images disappeared. The optical computer returned to the orderly scene of the auction. The data of ATOMIC BEAM BAZOOKA had already broken the 5 billion mark. It had set the record for the highest bid of this auction.
"It's a hacker!"
Seeing this, the people in charge of the three private rooms finally understood what was going on. They were temporarily relieved, but in the blink of an eye, they smiled bitterly. This time, they would definitely not be able to get the information about the ATOMIC BEAM BAZOOKA.
They knew very well that Aoqi purposely sent three imperial level hackers to guard this auction. However, even three imperial level hackers couldn't defend against someone. If Aoqi didn't notice anything amiss, then this hacker must have reached the god-class level …
However, god-class hackers were the pillars of a country. They definitely wouldn't leave the country. Who was this god-class hacker? He called himself the Son of God. Did he really think that he was the Son of God?
The three of them thought for a moment and ordered their subordinates not to expose this matter. They knew that if it was really a mysterious god-class hacker, even if they complained to the Aoqi organizers, there would be no results. The Aoqi organizers definitely wouldn't be able to find any problems. They might even suspect that they were purposely causing trouble. If they continued to pester the organizers, they might expose their identities.
The representative of the Ye family could only regretfully stop his original plan. Right now, the most urgent thing for them was to rush back to the Federation and ask the only god-class hacker in the Federation. Perhaps he might know who the god-class hacker was. After all, only a god-class hacker of this level would be able to discover something.
Not long after, the data of ATOMIC BEAM BAZOOKA was auctioned off by private room 091.
After the data was auctioned off, Aoqi's organizer announced the end of the auction.
At this time, the three private rooms finally resumed their communication with the outside world.
The three of them didn't hesitate to contact their subordinates who were waiting outside. They ordered them to investigate the background of the guest in private room 091. Since he was the one who won the auction, the Son of God must be related to him. He might even have been invited by him.
At the same time, they didn't stay in the auction house for long. After settling the accounts with the organizer, the three parties quickly left the auction house. Not long after, their cruise ship flew away from Planet Aoqi.
Because they left quickly, they didn't know about the series of events that happened on Planet Aoqi. It almost caused Planet Aoqi's economy to regress.
Because the Li family, the Ye family, and the merchant named Jiang kept it a secret, Aoqi didn't know that there was a hacker. However, Aoqi wasn't completely unscathed. Because of the Babu scepter, they had some conflicts with their partners.
As for the Babu scepter, they originally wanted Balaya to get it back. However, the owner of the Babu scepter wanted Balaya to pay a sufficient price for it. Although the Babu scepter was sold for a high price in the end, it didn't reach half of the original owner's price. This caused Aoqi's partners to blame them for giving up halfway.
Of course, Aoqi's partners felt wronged. They blamed Aoqi's partners for sending messages asking them to stop. Aoqi's partners obviously thought that it was a lie and asked them to provide evidence. At first, Aoqi's partners were very confident. However, when they searched for the messages, they couldn't find any. Aoqi's partners instantly understood that they had fallen into Aoqi's trap. They thought that Aoqi's partners had secretly betrayed them and stood on the Federation's side …
They attacked each other. Aoqi's partners also suspected that Aoqi's partners were planning to use Aoqi as a scapegoat. Their originally close relationship instantly had a gap. Even though Caesar's partners managed to suppress their anger and reconcile on the surface, their relationship couldn't return to how it used to be. There was a grudge between them.
Little Four didn't know that his barbaric and unreasonable methods actually caused Aoqi and Caesar to have a grudge against each other. In the future, this grudge would cause Aoqi and Caesar to break off their relationship. Of course, this was all in the future. Let's not talk about it now.
The reason why there was such an effect was because Aoqi was confident in their hackers. Of course, Aoqi's partners also believed in Aoqi's hackers. The only person who could cause trouble at the auction was Aoqi itself. Hence, confidence was a good thing. However, if they were too confident, problems would arise. They couldn't be too overconfident.
Ling Lan and her friends didn't know that Aoqi was arguing with their partners. They settled the accounts with Aoqi's auction house. Fortunately, the invitation card had enough funds. They successfully obtained the three items they bought. Under the guidance of the staff, they left the private room.
When they reached the elevator, Li Lanfeng smiled and said, "Thank you. We can go down by ourselves. Please wait."
The staff replied politely, "It's my job to send the guests out of the door. Six guests, this way please." He ignored Li Lanfeng's rejection and walked into the elevator when the doors opened. He stood at the entrance and gestured for Ling Lan and her friends to enter.
Li Lanfeng smiled and shook his head. He brought the six of them into the elevator. The elevator was still the same one. It was huge. Ling Lan habitually walked to the corner and leaned against the wall of the elevator. She lowered her head as though she was thinking about something.
The others didn't disturb her. They stood there casually and stared at the numbers on the screen. They waited for the elevator to reach the first floor.
The screen showed that the elevator had reached the third floor. Just as everyone was waiting for the next number to appear, their vision suddenly turned black. All the lights in the elevator were turned off. At the same time, a strong gust of wind rushed towards Ling Lan, who was standing at the corner.
Clang! The sharp blades collided with each other. Sparks flew in the dark. Then, there was a loud bang. Something hit the wall of the elevator. The entire elevator shook violently.
Bang! The lights in the elevator lit up again. All the lights lit up at the same time. At this moment, they finally saw that the staff member was lying in the corner like a pile of meat. Zilong was standing in front of him. He was waving his arm. His right hand was holding a three-inch military knife weakly.
"How dare you sneak attack my boss in front of me. You're looking for death!" Zilong sneered.
Li Lanfeng, who was standing in front of Ling Lan, curled his finger and a short blade slid into his sleeve. He was the one who blocked the staff member's attack on Ling Lan.
The staff member spat out a mouthful of blood. He said expressionlessly, "You won't be able to escape. The footage here will be sent to the surveillance room immediately."
Ling Lan knocked on the back of the person in front of her. He looked weak but was actually filled with explosive strength. She signaled for Li Lanfeng to move aside.
Li Lanfeng knew that Ling Lan must have something to say so he didn't even think before taking a step to the side.
Ling Lan walked forward slowly. Zilong saw this and took a big step back automatically.
Ling Lan stared at the staff member and bent down slightly to say, "There are a total of eight surveillance cameras here. It can be said that there are no blind spots at all. Since I know that there are so many surveillance cameras here, why do I still need to light up the elevator?
The staff member narrowed his eyes. He remembered that he needed to kill all six of them to light up the lights. If he didn't, he would fail the mission. Now, he failed the mission but the lights were lit up. He was the only one who knew the mechanism to light up the lights.
"Are you curious how I know?" Ling Lan snapped her fingers. The elevator turned dark again. She snapped her fingers again and the elevator lit up again.
"Who are you?" Brother Xu said that this harmless young man might be the strongest among the six of them. At that time, he didn't believe him. However, in the end, he listened to Brother Xu's orders and attacked him first. However, he didn't even have the chance to get close to him. He was defeated by the person beside him. The person who looked like he was only at the tenth stage of the manifestation realm and was about to enter the refinement realm was actually a Qi-Jin master. He only used one move to injure the staff member who was at the peak of the refinement realm. They were a bunch of devils who pretended to be weak to eat the tiger.
"Who am I? Actually, you already guessed it, right? " Ling Lan stood up straight. She looked down at the staff member as though she was looking at an ant. The staff member narrowed his eyes.
"You're very smart. That's right. Since I've lit up the elevator, I'm confident that what the people in the surveillance room see is fake. For example, right now, it's still pitch black. Then, after a while, what will appear is you standing in the elevator alone while the six of us are all knocked out."
Ling Lan spoke slowly, but the staff member's heart sank. Ling Lan's words made the staff member's heart sink.
"Of course, if you fail, the people monitoring this place will definitely send a squad of people to guard the elevator. If you succeed, those people will clean up our corpses. You will take back the Babu scepter and create an illusion that we escaped with the stolen goods to attract Balaya's attention. "
The staff member looked at Ling Lan with more and more fear. This was because what Ling Lan said was exactly what they were going to do next.
"You should have sent another group of people to kill Her Highness. Yes, according to your personality, you would have sent six people who looked like us to pretend to be us. When Her Highness met with them, those people would take advantage of the fact that the Princess was unprepared to assassinate Her Highness … If they succeeded, they would have pushed the blame onto us. If they didn't succeed, they would have said that we were greedy for the Babu scepter, causing Her Highness and Balaya to chase after us. Then, you would have been able to escape suspicion …"
Ling Lan smiled faintly. "What a good plan!"
"You're a devil!" Ling Lan's words caused the staff member to lose all hope. He abruptly opened his mouth and bit down, preparing to commit suicide by biting his tongue. Qi Long, who had been staring at him all this time, suddenly reached out and grabbed his chin. With a crack, the staff member's lower jaw was broken.
"That's not enough!" Ling Lan narrowed her eyes. She punched the staff member's right cheek. The staff member spat out a few teeth.
Lin Zhong-qing didn't wait for Ling Lan's orders. He went forward and inspected the teeth carefully. "I found it. One of the teeth is hollow. There is a capsule inside. It should contain poison."
"That's right. In this world, how can you commit suicide by biting your tongue?" Ling Lan replied calmly.
Li Lanfeng immediately took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and passed it to Ling Lan.
Ling Lan looked at him in surprise. She wondered why this man was so obsessed with cleanliness. He even carried such a thing with him. Ling Lan couldn't help but think of the image of Li Lanfeng wiping his mouth with his thumb and middle finger. Her body couldn't help but turn cold … Yes, she needed to make Li Lanfeng rougher in the future. She didn't want another Luo Lang to appear.
Ling Lan already felt that she had committed a grave sin by having Luo Lang as an oddball in the team. She couldn't lead a second person astray.
However, Ling Lan didn't reject Li Lanfeng's good intentions. She took the handkerchief and wiped the back of her right hand. Then, she threw it back to Li Lanfeng. She used her actions to tell him that this was how men should be used.
Li Lanfeng carefully folded the crumpled handkerchief and then carefully put it back into his pocket.
This scene made Ling Lan's eyes twitch. Could it be that Li Lanfeng had spent too much time with Luo Lang and was influenced by Luo Lang? Ling Lan was very unhappy. She wanted to go back and teach Luo Lang a lesson. F * * k, it was fine if he grew up astray, but why did he have to lead his team members astray?
Luo Lang, who was busy in the 23rd Division, suddenly felt cold all over and shivered a few times. This made his companions around him very worried. Li Shiyu ignored Luo Lang's protests. He directly pulled down Luo Lang's pants and injected an antibody into his butt. This was to prevent his illness from affecting the other team members.
Right now, they were at a crucial moment in their battle of wits with their regiment commander. They couldn't lack a strong fighter! Thus, Luo Lang could only bite the blanket and cry as he was ruthlessly ravaged by Li Shiyu.
"Ding!" They finally reached the first floor. Ling Lan threw a look at Zilong. Zilong instantly held up the staff member and stood in front of Ling Lan as a shield.
The elevator door opened. What entered everyone's eyes were six to seven guns. They didn't see who was inside and just started shooting wildly.
Li Yingjie and Zhao Jun, who had been hiding at the top of the elevator door, suddenly jumped towards the other party and instantly knocked down two people. Zilong, who was standing in the middle, used the staff member as a shield. A series of bullets hit the staff member. Zilong took the opportunity to dash out. Before the gunmen could react, he kicked them down.
Li Lanfeng and Lin Zhong-qing, who were hiding at the two sides of the elevator door, were a beat slower than the other three. They quickly followed and knocked down the two people that Zilong missed.
In the blink of an eye, the seven to eight people at the elevator door were taken care of by Ling Lan and the others.
"It looks like the other party doesn't want to leave anyone alive, including you." Ling Lan walked past the staff member who was thrown to the side by Zilong. His eyes were filled with hatred before he died. There was a lingering sadness of being abandoned.
"Thus, don't be a pawn. If you want to be a pawn, be the player." Ling Lan's calm words fell into the staff member's ears. A hint of regret and confusion appeared in the staff member's eyes. In the end, it condensed into hatred. He widened his eyes and took his last breath.
No one knew if his hatred was towards Ling Lan and the others or because he was heartlessly abandoned. In any case, he died with his eyes wide open. However, all of this had nothing to do with Ling Lan and the others. The moment he attacked Ling Lan, he was destined to die. The only difference was whether he would die in the hands of Ling Lan and the others or in the hands of his comrades.
