Since they brushed past each other, they were walking toward each other. In other words, this gentleman, who was observing the empty space on the mental plane, was walking out of the special effects production base.
Was he an employee here? What a joke. Luo Nan recognized this person at first glance.
Luo Yuan!
He had once built a Mutant lair in the center of Xia City. He had infiltrated the Shangding Building to assassinate President Ouyang. At the same time, he had used the inconceivable Planar Crossbow to nearly kill Luo Nan. Although this series of actions ended in failure, it did not harm this person's strength … … This was a terrifying Extraordinary. This was the only person that Luo Nan's invincible mental senses were unable to capture and monitor.
Just like in Xia City, Luo Nan's mental sense network was unable to capture this person's trajectory in advance … … Luo Nan suspected that Luo Yuan's body was the same as in Xia City. It was a rapidly proliferating empty shell of a clone body. It simply did not form an imprint on the mental plane.
But no matter what form or state Luo Yuan existed in, he appeared in this area at this time. It was almost certain that he had a direct and close relationship with the horned demon, with his grandfather's notebook, and with this kidnapping and blackmailing incident.
Was he an accomplice of the horned demon?
Yes, wasn't using the word "accomplice" too highly of the horned demon?
Luo Yuan's pace was steady and fast. Since he did not discover Luo Nan's focus, he followed his own rhythm and quickly walked out of the studio building. He boarded a black flying car that had been waiting at the entrance for a long time. The flying car immediately started and soon drove out of the base. It merged into the congested traffic of Hu City.
Meanwhile in Xia City, Rui Wen, who had just finished school, was as lonely as usual. She walked alone on campus, taking the opportunity to break away from everyone's line of sight. She turned into an uninhabited secluded location and sent a signal to Luo Nan that everything was ready.
The anchor point of Luo Nan's consciousness had long since locked onto the dancing horned demon in the studio. The horned demon was high in his performance. He was completely unaware of the subtle changes in the surrounding environment. He could not imagine that the silent Luo Nan, who was still enduring his extortion demands in the projection, had already arrived close to him. Luo Nan was gesticulating on how to stab.
Luo Nan was 99% certain that he would be able to stab through the horned demon's annoying mouth in the next second. He would be able to kill all possibilities of the horned demon calling for help.
The problem was that this thought had no effect on reality.
Luo Yuan's influence was substantial. Looking at it from another angle, Luo Nan's failure to discover his grandfather's notebook in this area was also a key factor.
Either the centaur doesn't have any sincerity in the transaction at all; Or, the transaction does exist, but the delivery has already been arranged … In other words, the centaur isn't alone. He has an unknown team around him.
Luo Yuan, who had just left, was a solid hammer.
Luo Nan let out a silent sigh. His consciousness floated away, and a strand of his mind fell upon the departing flying car. At this moment, the active water molecules were combining with the cold and humid air flow of the air conditioner in the car, filling the enclosed space of the car and transmitting images and sounds from the other side.
The driver who happened to be driving asked, "Isn't it inappropriate to let the centaur be there alone? Why don't I ask Little Zhao to come and help? "
Luo Yuan sat in the back seat with a straight posture. Only his slightly lowered eyelids showed that his body was in a relatively relaxed state. Two seconds later, he responded with a rather magnetic hoarse voice, "That 'treat plan' is a matter for the young people. Whether it succeeds or not has nothing to do with me. Since the other side dares to let the centaur take the lead, then let him add a scene there. He has been holding it in for so long that he is going crazy. "
The driver chuckled, "He is originally a lunatic … Ah, sorry."
Luo Yuan withdrew his cold eyes, and his hoarse voice maintained a slow rhythm, "Volunteers and experimental subjects should be distinguished. No matter how crazy the centaur is, he is still a warrior who actively fights against the genetic barrier."
"Yes, sir. My mentality is not right." The driver made a slip of the tongue and violated Luo Yuan's taboo. In just these two short sentences, a layer of cold sweat had already soaked his forehead.
Fortunately, Luo Yuan didn't delve into it. He talked half to himself, "The genetic modulation of the centaur isn't successful. The so-called reference model is restored to human DNA, and there will always be strange problems. The centaur is now like dry firewood with oil. Once it burns, the controllability is too low … Maybe these models conflict with the double helix structure? "
The driver no longer dared to interrupt on this topic. Luo Yuan raised his head to look at the cold sweat on his forehead, "Is it going to rain in Hucheng? The air is stuffy and humid … "
"Ah, I'll adjust it."
The driver was about to adjust the air conditioning function of the flying car when an invisible aura fluctuated from Luo Yuan's body. There was clearly no wind, but the car instantly became refreshed.
The inside of the flying car became refreshed, but Luo Nan's consciousness was slightly sluggish. On one hand, he just received a lot of explosive information. On the other hand, the special structure of the water vapor driven by the soul cloak was instantly destroyed by the aura of Luo Yuan's radiation.
Luo Nan almost thought that he had been discovered following and monitoring him. Fortunately, it turned out that it was just Luo Yuan's pursuit of a comfortable body.
Even so, Luo Nan didn't dare to be like before, unscrupulously using the soul cloak to interfere with the operation. For a strong person like Luo Yuan, his perception of the external environment was exquisite. No matter how small the changes on the material plane were, it was not safe.
Luo Nan carefully kept his distance. In this way, the scene and conversation in the sealed car were vague and hard to distinguish. It was difficult to extract effective information. Luo Nan could only wait. Wait for Luo Yuan to re-enter the open environment. Maybe then he wouldn't be so sensitive … … right?
The flying car continued to move and boarded the airport highway. It looked like they weren't going to stop at Hucheng. Instead, they were going straight out of the city. Luo Nan looked at the map and saw that there was an airport in that direction. They could also directly enter the Wilderness. But no matter which one it was, it would take over an hour by car. He definitely had to follow them. It was hard to catch traces of a great enemy. Moreover, his usual mental senses were useless. It would be too much of a pity to give them up.
But as for the horned demon … … Was he really going to let them go?
Luo Nan wasn't willing.
For Octopus Bro, every second of negotiating with the horned demon was a torment.
The horned demon wasn't worthy of the word 'negotiation'. He was just somewhere between a joke and a dream talk. It was completely impossible to realize conditions. He kept instilling them into Octopus Bro, breaking through the bottom line of Octopus Bro's mental endurance. As for whether or not the negotiation would be successful, Octopus had already seen it. This damned bastard didn't care at all!
"Motherf * cker, don't tell me this fellow just wants to scam 500 points and then run!"
The more Octopus talked, the more nervous he became. He didn't know if it was fortunate or unfortunate. After paying the sky-high price of points, Luo Nan, who was directly related to the transaction, maintained a stubborn silence. No matter how the horned demon provoked and teased him, Luo Nan didn't say a word. In the end, the centaur probably lost the source of pleasure that should have been the strongest source of pleasure, so he ended this meaningless negotiation in a dull manner.
The final price stopped at 1200 points. This was a fifth higher than the horned demon's so-called 'base price'. According to his words:
Even my spit is worth this price!
Octopus felt that he didn't play any role in this process. If Luo Nan was to say that he did, he probably made the horned demon sign a confidentiality agreement. He asked Octopus to ensure that this sky-high price of kidnapping and extortion was completely sealed off from the outside world … … The two hundred points above the base price was given under this name.
All right, these minor details were meaningless.
Octopus finally confirmed the terms of the agreement. According to the conditions stipulated in the agreement, Luo Nan would send a special person to Hu City within nine hours to receive the twelve notebooks that the horned demon had dug out from Luo Yuandao's wilderness laboratory. Two of the notebooks were relatively intact, but the remaining ten were more or less damaged.
"On average, one notebook is exactly a hundred points. Thinking about it this way, don't you think it's not that expensive? "The horned demon began to show off.
"If I convert it to credit points, then it's a hundred million! I'm using this to buy your life. Do you think that Extraordinaries won't be interested? "
"Oh my, I'm so scared. How about this. As a bonus for the deal and to mend our relationship, I will provide you with a copy of the excavation site … … "
"We already have our notebooks. What's the use of having a copy?" Octopus began to curse. If he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to vent the resentment in his heart.
The horned demon laughed heartily: "Octopus, your brain capacity has probably shrunk from taking drugs. I'm not a professional archaeologist. Who would have the time and energy to preserve these tattered notebooks? Many days have passed in between, so quite a few notebooks have been damaged a second time. The things preserved by the photocopies from back then are a bit more complete … … What do you guys think? "
Octopus didn't know what Luo Nan's mood would be when he heard these words. In any case, he kicked the office desk next to him after he cut off the communication.
"Horned demon, this madman! He's crazy!"
Luo Nan was startled awake. He subconsciously advised: "Bro Octopus, don't be angry … …"
"If I'm not angry, then I'm a dead man! 1200 points. Deducting your savings, there should be a difference of nearly 600 points, right? According to your current credit limit, this sum of money is equal to a third of your life's savings being sold to the Society. Do you understand!? "
Luo Nan could only laugh: "It doesn't matter if it's my value or my grandfather's notebooks. Neither of them can be measured by these points … …"
Octopus was quite interested in Luo Nan's self-produced chicken soup. He Yueyin had confirmed the conclusion of the negotiations at this time. She pushed open the door and entered. She looked straight at Luo Nan:
"As a senior member of the Xia City branch, the attitude and stance of the Horned Demons are worth discussing. I have already notified President Ouyang, Her Majesty Empress Wu, and Old You. We will first have a small meeting to analyze and make the corresponding arrangements. If Mr. Luo has any questions or requests, you can raise them at the meeting. Everyone can solve them together. "
