This kind of strong contrast made Reynolds's blood run cold as he listened to her voice.
The smile on Boss Ruhr's face faded bit by bit. He stared at Madam Black Scorpion standing in front of him and suddenly sighed softly. "Madam Black Scorpion, we have known each other for many years and relied on each other for survival in that small courtyard. If it wasn't for the fact that I had no other choice, I really didn't want to make things difficult for you today."
Madam Black Scorpion said indifferently, "You don't have to say such things. Boss Ruhr, since you've come back, you must have made up your mind."
"I'm sorry." Boss Ruhr shrugged his shoulders. "I've been struggling in my heart for a long time. You almost really deceived us. But it's a pity that you were still a bit too impatient. "
"Oh?" Madam Black Scorpion's eyes flickered.
"Yes, ma 'am." The girl took two steps forward. She and Boss Ruhr stood on both sides of Madam Black Scorpion, sandwiching her from a distance. The girl carefully moved her feet, but her face still had that kind of sweet smile. She giggled and said, "When you showed off your power and drove away those bear tribe soldiers, then didn't allow us to leave and forced us to carry the stretcher, I really didn't see it at all. Just now, when you let us go get some water, we actually ran quite a few miles away. We almost really ran away. But fortunately, we remembered something. "
Madam Black Scorpion sighed. "What is it?"
"Your temperament, ma 'am."
The girl still had that kind of sweet smile on her face. She slowly said, "After running several li away, Boss Ruhr suddenly stopped me and told me that something was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"You are Madam Black Scorpion! The famous Madam Black Scorpion. " The girl sighed. "I was still young when you were famous all those years ago, so I didn't know much about your power and prestige. But Boss Ruhr knew. Madam Black Scorpion was proud and arrogant in the past. Her temperament was wild and untamed, and she was both righteous and evil. As a powerful Devil Path Master, I heard that you have a very eccentric and eccentric temperament. Although it was rumored that you weren't a bloodthirsty person who viewed human lives as ants, you were definitely not a softhearted person either. With the way you did things in the past, if you needed to kill someone, you wouldn't hesitate at all. Take today's matter for example. You've been suspicious of the two of us all along the way. Most importantly … you didn't choose anyone else, but you chose this kid to support and serve you all along the way. This clearly shows that you're on guard against us! After all, Minnie had to take care of Baron, and Boss Ruhr was a man, so it was reasonable for him to be assigned to carry the stretcher. But you didn't let me support you and serve you. Instead, you chose this brat … He is a man of unknown origin. "
Madam Black Scorpion sighed.
"So, when we were running away just now, I thought to myself: Since Madam Black Scorpion was already suspicious and hostile towards us, why would she so casually reveal an opening and let us escape?"
The girl said faintly, "According to your strength and style of doing things, since you're already hostile to us, the most reasonable thing to do would be to directly cripple the two of us! After all, we're on the run now. If you let us go, we might reveal your whereabouts and attract your enemies. But not only did you not make a move against us, you even revealed such a big opening … so … "
Boss Ruhr continued, "So, after giving it some thought, we guessed a possibility: It's not that you're softhearted and didn't make a move against us, but that you're simply incapable of doing so due to some unspeakable difficulties, right? Madam Black Scorpion! "
Madam Black Scorpion looked at the two of them calmly and said softly, "Just this little bit of suspicion actually made the two of you decide to run back and become my enemy? Don't tell me you're not afraid of guessing wrong and coming back is the same as bringing about your own destruction? "
"Of course we're afraid." Boss Ruhr laughed out loud. Then he looked at Madam Black Scorpion with a serious expression and a very sincere tone, "But there's nothing we can do about it. The two of us are too greedy."
"Hehe, that's right, we're greedy." The girl said slowly, "We're just too greedy. Even though we don't dare to confirm whether our guess is right or not. But as soon as we think of this possibility, that your famous Madam Black Scorpion's strength might have weakened to the point that even we can't deal with you, we can no longer suppress that tempting thought in our hearts. Granny, others may not have heard of it, but we happen to know a piece of news. In the past, you were wanted by the King's Realm and listed as the number one public enemy of the Sanctuary Guild. There's a secret behind it. "
"That's right." Boss Ruhr narrowed his eyes, "I know that you once obtained a divine artifact from the Sanctuary Guild's Guild Master!"
"That divine artifact is a priceless treasure. Even though we don't know what it is, but because of this matter, even the Guild Master died in your hands …"
"Even though ordinary people like us aren't very smart, at least we can think of a simple reason: A treasure that even the Guild Master died for must have an astonishing value!"
"The Sanctuary Guild has been chasing after you for so many years, this treasure should still be with you. So … even though it's very likely that you'll lose your life because of guessing wrong, but … people like us always have to take some risks when doing things."
Hearing this, Madam Black Scorpion finally took a deep breath and laughed softly.
Her laughter was very soft at first, but then it became louder and louder. In the end, even her body started to tremble.
"Divine artifact! Divine artifact! Hahahahaha … "Madam Black Scorpion's laughter was full of resentment and mockery," I didn't expect you to have heard of this matter. Humph … you know quite a lot! It turns out that you've actually set your sights on me. "
"People die for wealth, and birds die for food." Boss Ruhr shook his head and sighed, "It wasn't until last night that I found out that there were actually a few experts living in my small courtyard. Even I was shocked by this result. Since I know your identity, I naturally can't feel at ease. Also … the heads of Baron and Heaven's Inquisition are also very valuable! If we can finish today's business, the two of us will find a place to live in seclusion. We won't have to come out and take risks for the rest of our lives. So, we have no choice but to gamble this time. "
Madam Black Scorpion paused her magic wand on the ground and her voice became cold, "Are you so sure that you can take care of this old woman?"
"I'm not sure, but with such rich and attractive benefits, it's worth a gamble." Boss Ruhr said honestly.
