Gao Qi was not rebelling, but to be honest, his situation was no different from that of a rebel.
In terms of rebellion, a scholar with a belly full of wisdom might not be as good as a peasant because scholars knew too much and thought too much. Then, after thinking about it, they would not dare to rebel.
However, it was easy to rebel, but it was difficult to conquer the country. If one did not want to die from the fire and be extinguished as soon as they appeared, then they had to have the participation of scholars.
Looking at the history of successful rebellions, which one of them did not have a strategist by their side?
Why was it like this? Because scholars might be timid and lose their courage after studying, but scholars could play tricks. Even if they could not come up with any grand strategy, they could always copy their homework according to history books. At the very least, they would have read books on the art of war.
Gao Qi was not in a good situation now, and when he really put himself in the shoes of the enemy of the world, he had to think about whether there was any power he could borrow.
Then, Gao Qi really thought of it.
The Bounty Hunter Guild showed goodwill to Gao Qi. First, they gave him a friendly reminder by issuing a mission. This time, John called directly and bluntly reminded him of the danger.
There was no kindness in this world for no reason. Gao Qi recalled the reason why he had interacted with the Bounty Hunter Guild, and it was easy to find that the only key person was John.
Recalling his dealings with John, Gao Qi remembered a problem that he had long neglected. John had tried his best to invite Huang Fei to complete a mission, and it was a mission that only Huang Fei could complete. This mission was to observe if the City Lord of Angel City was a superpowered person.
Also, the Sky Gun Shop that John ran was officially called Sky Workshop, and he was a member of the Firearms Federation of Angel City. In other words, John's nest was in Angel City, and John had mentioned this more than once.
Recalling this, Gao Qi naturally had to ask himself a question. Since John was from Angel City, why did he try his best to invite Huang Fei to find out if the City Lord of Angel City was a superpowered person?
Although John's status and strength could not be compared to the City Lord of Angel City, considering John's background in the Bounty Hunter Guild, would he have a conflict of interest with the City Lord of Angel City?
Therefore, no matter how slow one was, one would be able to guess that John and the Bounty Hunter Guild he represented had some kind of competition with the City Lord of Angel City, forming a situation where one mountain could not accommodate two tigers...
The easiest way to verify this was to make a phone call.
So Gao Qi took out his phone and called John.
The call went through, and after three rings, John picked up.
When he spoke, Gao Qi was filled with emotions. Then he said in a low voice, "Thank you for calling me."
John said in a low voice, "You're welcome."
"But how did you know that I was in danger?"
This time, John was silent for a moment, and then he said in a deep voice, "Because I know you've arrived in Angel City, and I just received the news that Vincent has set up a trap to get close to you inadvertently. Vincent is the City Lord of Angel City."
"Well, what does he want to do?"
"He wants to know your true strength, so he used a complicated and tactful way to test you and observe you. But now the situation has changed. Some people want to kill you."
Gao Qi was puzzled. "Why do they want to kill me? Can you explain it a little more clearly? "
"Because you opened the spatial door in City No. 1. You're likely to cause the third cataclysm to come early, but most importantly, you can really help those with potential to successfully awaken. This is too scary for the minority because they don't want to see a situation where a large number of Espers are produced steadily. So, you're better off dead than alive."
Gao Qi exhaled and said, "Thank you. What I'm most worried about is the so-called confidentiality. Hiding everything from me and not telling me anything. Now that you're so honest, I feel much better. So, do you know who wants to kill me?"
John said calmly, "It's Belial. He persuaded Vincent, so Vincent changed his mind. He decided to kill you in a very simple way after inviting you over."
As expected, it was a completely unoriginal answer.
So, Gao Qi immediately said, "Well, then can you tell me what you, or the Bounty Hunter Guild, want to do?"
This time, John didn't answer. After a short silence, Gao Qi said helplessly, "It's fine if it's not convenient to say, but I still have a question. Can you help me?"
John exhaled and said, "The Bounty Hunter Guild is actually a member of the Hunters, but we're not so short-sighted because the guild doesn't rely on that city to exist. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand, of course I understand. Because the rapid and stable growth of Espers doesn't have much of an impact on the Bounty Hunter Guild, but it has a great impact on those cities."
"It's good that you understand. That's why we're happy to see you make breakthroughs in more areas, because in a few years, when the real apocalypse comes, you might be able to bring us some hope. Even if this hope is very slim, it's better than killing you now and completely cutting off all hope."
As expected, since the Bounty Hunter Guild dared to fall out with the City of Angels, they naturally had the strength and willingness to protect Gao Qi.
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "Then can you send me to a safe place? I'm near the City of Angels now, and the situation is very dangerous. "
"Yes."
There was hope. Gao Qi really didn't know where he could go on foot, but if the Bounty Hunter Guild was willing to send him a spaceship, he could go anywhere he wanted.
But before Gao Qi could thank him, John said, "Yes, but you have to ensure that you can survive first."
"What do you mean? Are you saying that the City of Angels is chasing me?"
John said in a deep voice, "Yes, and the City of Angels has already found your location. As far as I know, the team chasing you has already set off two minutes ago."
Gao Qi looked up at the sky again. Of course, he could still only see the canopy.
"Have we been exposed so soon? What is it, a satellite?"
"Yes, you've been discovered by a satellite. The City of Angels' helicopter has already set off. If you can survive and hold on until our people rescue you, then I'll send you somewhere else. Take care, I have faith in you."
