"I want you to work for me."
The old man shook the bottle in his hand as if he didn't care about Gray Blade's words. He then said, "What do you want? Just say it. We can accept business here. We can find people and things, and also solve some grievances."
"Tell me what you want, leave a deposit, and I will contact the previous owner for you."
Gray Blade gently tapped the table and looked at the old man.
"Old man Yan, don't pretend."
The old man looked up and still didn't care.
"You are the real boss. Including this bar, including these businesses, they are all controlled by you."
This time, old man Yan was a little surprised.
Many people knew that his surname was Yan.
But most people only thought that he was a middleman who worked for someone else. After understanding the customer's requirements, he would bring it to the behind-the-scenes boss to decide whether to do the business or not.
But very few people knew that the thugs who settled grudges and disputes for others were his "employees".
Old man Yan frowned and gradually became serious.
He looked at Gray Blade, "Kid, since you know where this place is, do you know what will happen if you mess around here?"
"Or do you think that because we don't accept murder business, we don't dare to kill people? In this refugee area, people die every day. If too many people die, it will be a bit troublesome. But you are alone, who will care … "
He shook his head, "Of course, in business, harmony makes money. I will give you another chance, tell me your purpose."
"My purpose?" Gray Blade smiled, "I want you and your men to work for me. Otherwise, why would I come here."
Old man Yan's face gradually became cold.
He hit the bell under the table, and suddenly the entire bar rang with the alarm.
The bartender's face changed and stopped his work.
Many big men ran out from the inside, holding weapons such as knives and spears in their hands.
The customers here also noticed that something was wrong. Looking at these big men, even a fool knew that they couldn't stay any longer.
They left the bar.
Bang!
The door closed.
One by one, the big men looked at Gray Blade with malicious intent. The strongest man in the middle pointed at Gray Blade, "Dad, is this the troublemaker? His body is too small. I think I can slap him to death. "
Gray Blade narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Even though he was surrounded by the burly man, he didn't seem to mind at all.
For some reason, Old Man Yan felt a knot in his heart. Obviously, Gray Blade didn't look strong, and his aura was also weak, but … why was he so confident?
What kind of trump card does he have?
The men surrounding Gray Blade didn't think so much.
The first person swung his rod down, only to find that Gray Blade's figure had disappeared from his sight.
In the next moment, his vision spun, and his entire body was thrown into the air, crashing into the ground in the distance.
With a bang, the old house was like a cloud of dust falling down.
The burly man wanted to prop himself up, but his vision suddenly darkened. A burly man was thrown over and his butt smashed into the man's face.
Each and every one of these men was very strong. Compared to them, Gray Blade's stature was indeed small. However, at the same time, these men were not light either. One or two of them were fine, but one after another, these big men were thrown into the air by Gray Blade, all of them landing in the same place.
The face of the burly man at the bottom was blue, red, black, and bitter. He couldn't speak anymore. He could only make a rhythmic sound.
Yan Dazhuang, the strongest hunter, roared and rushed up.
He slapped down, and Gray Blade's figure disappeared in front of him.
The table next to him shattered.
In the distance, Old Man Yan's eyes flashed with distress.
Yan Dazhuang suddenly turned around, "Found you."
His sandbag-sized fist slammed down, this time hitting Gray Blade's body.
Yan Dazhuang was stunned. His fist directly passed through Gray Blade's body. It was an illusion!
Then, he smashed into the wall beside him.
With a bang, the wall cracked. Old Man Yan was so distressed that he almost broke the bottle in his hand.
A few minutes later.
A small mountain of human bodies was built in the bar.
The burly man at the bottom had already fainted, fully experiencing the feeling of being pressed by a burly man.
Yan Dazhuang was the last one to be thrown up, but he was also the one who was beaten the most.
His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. If Yan Dazhuang hadn't been beaten up in front of Old Yan, his father wouldn't have recognized him.
After finishing his work.
Gray Blade clapped his hands and looked at Old Man Yan.
"Let me introduce myself again. This humble one … well, this humble one's identity is confidential. Now, can we talk about work?"
… …
Academy of Sciences.
In an underground research room.
Sun Weiguo was inscribing runes into equipment through an instrument.
Although he was old, his hands did not tremble in the slightest when controlling the instrument. He didn't ask anyone to help him. Compared to letting others do the work, Sun Weiguo enjoyed the process of scientific research in his own hands.
After a while, the rune energy was finally engraved.
Sun Weiguo carefully took the long sword to the other side and placed it on a testing instrument.
The red light on the instrument lit up, and the result appeared.
Next to him, the assistant Xiao Lin was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe. After waiting for a while, he carefully asked, "Teacher, this … is it successful?"
Sun Weiguo frowned, "The rune inscription is successful, but the effect is far from the expected requirements."
After listening to Tang Yu's words, Sun Weiguo was suddenly enlightened.
Sun Weiguo had been studying this aspect for a long time, but he was stuck at that crucial point. After he figured it out, Sun Weiguo immediately discussed and researched with a few other experts through the night, and soon came up with a systematic summary of the extraordinary power of runes.
In their expectations, the most difficult part of making a rune weapon was the step of inscribing the runes.
Right now, the rune inscription was successful, but the effect was far less than the Demon Slayer Longsword.
"What's the problem?"
Sun Weiguo racked his brain.
In order to better demonstrate, the material he used was exactly the same as the material used in the Demon Slayer Longsword. Even the weapon's style and size were only a few millimeters different.
But it was still useless!
In order to inscribe this rune, he consumed thousands of units of spirit stones, which was definitely far beyond the normal consumption of rune weapons. If it was successful, it would be good. But the result showed that this newly forged longsword was more than a grade worse than the Demon Slayer Longsword.
Suddenly, a new idea popped up in his mind.
"Xiao Lin, bring me another Demon Slayer Longsword."
Xiao Lin nodded and was about to get it. Suddenly, he froze, "Teacher, the last Demon Slayer Longsword has been dismantled just now. There's no more left."
Xiao Lin looked bitter.
Sun Weiguo's face was almost crazy. As if he was about to do something but was told he couldn't do it today.
Maybe it was even worse than this!
If he wasn't a hunter, he would've fainted from this kind of feeling.
Even now, he was so anxious that his fingers trembled. Suddenly, he patted his thigh, "By the way, there's also that guy from last time. Xiao Lin, I told you to pay attention to his whereabouts. You should pay attention to it. Go talk to him. How many Demon Slayer Longswords are left? I want all of them. Spirit stones are not a problem. Even if he wants something else, as long as the Academy of Sciences can give it, it's not a problem!"
Sun Weiguo was so anxious that he was a little incoherent.
Xiao Lin panicked, "Teacher, those people from last time, although I found out their residence in Lindong, they're not there now."
"Did they go out on a mission? That's a bit difficult. "
"No." Xiao Lin thought for a moment and finally told the cruel truth, "They don't seem to have returned to the shelter. They were attacked by the Scarlet Hands in the wild."
"Scarlet Hands?" Sun Weiguo was furious.
Even if Tang Yu had been paid a lot of money for his contributions, Sun Weiguo still felt that the young man was a hero of Lindong. But he didn't expect they were attacked by the Scarlet Hands!
His eyes became a little dull, "It's my negligence. It's my negligence. I must let Lu Jianjun eradicate these black sheep!"
Sun Weiguo was about to leave.
But he heard Xiao Lin said, "No, teacher, the Scarlet Hands have been destroyed. It was said that those three people did it."
Sun Weiguo: "…"
