The giant beast seemed to have landed in the palm of the sloppy middle-aged man when it finally shrunk to the end.
Kelly looked at the two people. She didn't know if she should thank them.
She didn't even know if the two people who had suddenly appeared were enemies.
If they were enemies, then she would be in a more hopeless situation than she had ever been in the past.
Such a terrifying huge beast was like a kitten in front of these two people. It was instantly killed.
No matter how arrogant and ignorant Kelly was, she didn't think she could defeat them.
As for Iveli, she was so scared that her face had turned pale.
As for Zoma Dennis, his eyes were fixed on the two men.
Kelly could even hear Zoma Dennis' hurried breathing.
"Two commoners." Zhang Tianyi immediately realized that Kelly and Iveli were commoners.
When he walked towards the two female assassins, Iveli was so scared that she raised her gun.
Kelly couldn't stop her in time. Iveli instinctively pulled the trigger.
Zhang Tianyi tilted his head slightly and looked at the two women in surprise. "So it's two female assassins."
Zhang Tianyi turned his gaze to Zoma Dennis. He held his chin and thought for about thirty seconds.
"Oh! I see. " Zhang Tianyi roughly guessed their relationship. He pointed at Zoma Dennis. "Whose subordinate are you?"
Zoma Dennis's legs turned to jelly when Zhang Tianyi pointed at him. He knelt on the ground.
"Great Sage, I am an external member of the Red Man Society. My name is Zoma Dennis. I work directly for President Kenkira. I am under orders to hunt for the blood of assassins for the president."
Zhang Tianyi had only asked casually, but Zoma Dennis had already spilled everything out.
Kelly found it unbelievable. Previously, when Zoma Dennis was threatened by her, she had tried her best to make him confess some things intermittently.
There were many things that he wasn't willing to say.
For example, who ordered him to do it.
No matter how Kelly threatened him, he had remained tight-lipped.
But this old man had only asked that question. He hadn't even asked that many questions.
He actually spat out all of his secrets.
Who was this old man?
How could he scare Zoma Dennis like this?
Kelly was also very nervous at this moment.
The old man only needed to tilt his head slightly to avoid Evelyn's bullets.
And he was able to scare Zoma Dennis to this extent.
Even if he used all his trump cards, he still wouldn't be able to defeat him.
It wasn't a good feeling, putting his fate in someone else's hands.
His life and death were all in the hands of others.
But there was nothing Kelly could do.
Right now, she was just a piece of meat on someone else's chopping board.
Zhang Tianyi strolled over with a smile on his face.
He could tell how nervous Kelly was, so he deliberately said in a teasing tone, "Are you nervous now that your fate is in someone else's hands?"
Kylie almost pulled out the gun hidden behind her back.
"Alright, relax. I don't plan on killing you."
When Zhang Tianyi said those words, Kelly felt like she was about to collapse.
It was as if all the pressure had been released in an instant.
"Do you feel like you've just survived a disaster? Actually, I was just joking. I'm going to kill all of you. "Zhang Tianyi suddenly revealed a ferocious smile.
Kelly pulled out her gun and pointed it at Zhang Tianyi.
Zhang Tianyi suddenly laughed out loud. "Haha … You're still joking."
Kelly's chest heaved up and down. She was really scared.
Even though Zhang Tianyi was only joking, which she couldn't tell if it was real or not, she still felt great pressure.
It was as if ten mountains were pressing down on her heart.
"Let's go. Follow me," Zhang Tianyi said.
"Where … Where are you taking us?"
"To protect you, of course. I'll send you back to the outside world safely."
Kelly wasn't naive enough to think that Zhang Tianyi was really that kind.
"You can refuse, but there are more than twenty monsters wandering around this area. Their activity areas are intersecting. Even if you know where they are, you won't be able to find any gaps to avoid them. If you act alone, your chance of survival is less than 0.01%." Zhang Tianyi said, "And if you follow us, you have a 50% chance of being killed or not."
The terrible chance chilled Kelly's heart.
But just as Zhang Tianyi said, her only two choices now were so bloody.
The difference was that one was almost certain death, and the other depended on Zhang Tianyi's mood.
"Wise choice." Zhang Tianyi laughed out loud. "Let's go. Let's talk about interesting things in the world of assassins."
Kelly took a deep breath and gathered her courage. "Why should I tell you?"
"Your life is in my hands now. Shouldn't you please me?"
"No, from a psychological perspective, blindly pleasing me will only lose value."
"You know psychology very well. Do all assassins know psychology?"
"Because I know psychology, I'm better than most assassins."
"Smart answer. Your answer increases your bargaining power. It makes me feel that you're a valuable person and increases your chance of survival."
"So, did it work?"
"Just so-so. Your answer made me even more curious about you, so your chance of survival has indeed increased."
Kelly did know psychology. She even had a degree in psychology.
She knew how to talk to people without making them feel repulsed.
"How many people have you killed? Or rather, how many missions have you accepted? "
"More than thirty."
"How long have you been in the profession?"
"Fifteen."
"You seem to be only twenty-five."
"Yes, I started when I was ten," Kelly replied. "How do you know my age?"
"I'm a Taoist. All Taoists can tell fortunes."
"Then tell me about it."
"Do you know what price people have to pay to have their fortunes told by me?"
"I have money."
"I have more money than you," Zhang Tianyi said rather arrogantly.
"Then what price?"
"For now, I haven't found any value in you. Of course, if your story is good enough, it's possible."
"Can an assassin's story attract you? The world you're in contact with is far more mysterious than the world of assassins. "
"My position has made me lose interest in most things. In my eyes, most people in the spiritual world are no different from ordinary people. So, your so-called mystery is just daily life to me."
"Then, can you guarantee my safety if I tell you a good story?"
"Of course. A good story can prove your value."
"Even if it's fake?"
"If you can make it so that I can't find any flaws, it doesn't matter even if it's made up."
