"Good evening, Mr. Mayor."
Kuck greeted Sloo Derl with a smile.
Sloo Derl's cold eyes were flashing with ruthlessness when he saw the smile on Cook's face.
Sloo Derl knew Cook.
But he wasn't familiar with him.
Sloo Derl's impression of Cook was still at the level of an ancient coin merchant. At most, he would call Cook a little smart.
As for the others?
Before this moment, there wasn't much else.
Cook was like any other merchant, greedy and stingy.
After that moment, Sloo Derl thought of more things.
For example, Carlo Derl, Kellot Derl, Annie Penny Lynne's disappearance, and Quaker Wilberst and Amor Moore's death.
"You did it?"
Sloo Derl asked coldly.
"Are you referring to your two nephews, Annie Penny Lynne, and Amor Moore?"
"Yes, it's just like what you guessed.
"I did it."
"I still can't forget the taste of Miss Annie Penny Lynn."
Too bad … "
"She's a little too weak.
She's as weak as your two nephews, "Cook said with a smile.
Cook said with a smile. At the same time, he shook his crotch, and his fat belly immediately shook with this movement.
"So the mistake made by that idiot, Hardy Lynn, was also planned by you?"
Sloo Derl asked.
"Yes.
"But, it's not completely …"
Cook nodded and continued to speak.
However, before he could finish his sentence, a laser beam shot straight at him.
However, Cook seemed to have predicted it. His fat body displayed a nimbleness that didn't match his size. He tapped the ground with his feet and twisted his body, the laser beam grazed his body.
"If you do that, it's meaningless.
You know, I'm sincerely trying to make a deal with you. "
Cook saw the laser beam sink into the wall, he couldn't help but curl his lips in disdain. However, when he looked at Sloo Derl again, the disdain turned into a flattering, cunning smile of a merchant.
"What deal?"
Sloo Derl asked.
His voice and expression didn't change at all, as if what had just happened wasn't his doing.
"Your research results!"
"I'm also very interested in things like immortality."
"Of course, no one can resist such temptation, just like those big shots who protected you back then."
"You used a living human as an experiment, and there was such a huge accident, but you're still safe and sound, and you're on a meteoric rise. It's a pity …"
"None of them survived to this day."
Cook stated his purpose in a straightforward manner.
Then, the 'ancient coin merchant' pretentiously sighed with emotion.
Unfortunately, such a sigh coupled with the smile on Kieran's face wasn't convincing at all.
Sloo Del stared at him intently.
He was trying to discern whether the other party was telling the truth or not.
However, Syro Del couldn't see anything else on the man's face, which was bloated with fat.
Soon enough, Rollo Derl gave up on the useless effort.
Regardless of whether the other party was telling the truth or not, he would not let things go as the other party wished.
You want me to hand over my research results?
Impossible!
Other than himself, no one else could get their hands on my research results, including those big shots in the past.
Did they really die of old age?
Some were.
Some?
Not really.
"You want my research results?"
What do you want in exchange? "
Slodel purposely asked after he made up his mind.
"Exchange?
Did I hear it wrong?
"Isn't it obvious enough?"
What else is more important than life? "
Cook spread out his hands and turned his body sideways. He pointed at Slodel in the glass container with one hand and himself with the other. His meaning couldn't be more obvious.
"Yeah, life is the most important.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't want to live forever."
Slodel nodded as if he was compromising.
"It's great that you understand …"
Bang!
Kuck couldn't help but laugh when he saw the compromising Sloth Del. However, before his smile faded, his fat body exploded.
No!
It wasn't exploding!
It was …
Squeezing!
A formless squeezing!
It was like swatting a blood-sucking mosquito with both hands.
When the mosquito was smashed to pieces, his hands would be stained with blood.
Flesh and blood fluttered outside the glass container. Inside the glass container, Slodel smiled coldly. The mayor stared at Kuck who was smashed into pieces without blinking.
Of course, he wouldn't stand out.
He wanted to enjoy Cook's miserable state.
If he didn't do that, how could he continue to complete the next experiment calmly?
So, Slodel quickly noticed something was wrong with the blood mist.
A person appeared in the blood mist.
It didn't just appear out of nowhere, it had been there all along.
It was inside Cook's fat body.
When the fat body was smashed to pieces, the person was naturally revealed.
It was enough to shock Slodel.
But what shocked him even more was when he saw the person's face.
"Wilberst?!"
Slodel looked at the person and couldn't hold back his cry of shock.
His cry was met with Wilberst's loud mockery.
"Sure enough, it's just as I guessed.
You don't know the real secret of this place!
Or did you make your move too fast, to the point that the big shot who favored you didn't have time to tell you?
A fool who thought he had everything under control yet neglected the biggest secret, this is … hilarious! "
Wilberst said slowly, his voice was still the same as Cook's.
"What secret?"
Sloth Derl asked.
"I won't tell you.
And … "
"Don't play those little tricks anymore.
It's useless.
Your failure has been decided from the start! "
Wilberst then turned around.
"Go to hell!"
Slodel shouted angrily at Wilberst's back. He activated the mystical power in his body, but the power that he could control like an arm and a finger didn't appear. Instead, it was rapidly melting away.
And it wasn't just his power that was melting away.
His body was melting away as well.
"No!
It shouldn't be like this!
NO! "
Sloth roared and struggled, but that was all he could do. He couldn't do anything more. He could only watch as Wilberst walked to the center of the hall and opened a hidden compartment. He watched as a palm-sized, dazzling, cone-shaped object floated out of the hidden compartment.
After that?
Slodel vanished with a face full of regret when he felt the unusual power.
He melted into a puddle of thick pus that couldn't be dissolved in colloidal solution. The stench was unbearable, similar to the bodies in glass containers.
Wilberst knew what happened behind him.
But he also knew he had to hurry up.
Otherwise, his business partner would not be merciful.
Wilberst raised his hand and tried to grab the cone.
However, the moment Wilberst raised his hand, a figure with a heavy stench of blood jumped out from the shadows, heading straight for the cone object.
It was his partner.
The moment Wilberst smelled the blood, he knew who the intruder was.
Therefore, he would never give up.
As for his partner?
He wouldn't give up either.
Both of them didn't give up, but in the end, neither of them got their hands on the cone object. Instead, they attacked each other.
They knew only by killing each other could they truly get their hands on the cone object.
KABOOM!
Fist and claw clashed, followed by a huge explosion.
A formless energy wave instantly tore all the glass containers in the hall apart.
Pak Pak Pak!
After a series of glass breaking noises, the cone object floating in mid-air was affected by the energy wave and flew to a corner of the hall.
It was where Wilberst's body was.
Then …
