Tears welled up in Old Deng's eyes, but he held them back. He said helplessly to Su Yue, "Sir, you've practically drained me dry..."
After saying that, he poured out all the items from the bracelet, his face showing a fearless and resolute expression.
Scattered on the ground were a pile of consumables, a supply capsule, and several pieces of seemingly worn-out equipment.
To ordinary people, these things are undoubtedly incredibly precious treasures.
However, under Su Yue's sharp eyes, he quickly discovered the blind spot.
Hidden beneath several boxes of small blue pills, a corner of a mission scroll quietly peeked out.
Su Yue's eyes lit up, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
Then he turned to Old Deng, added two more sarcastic remarks, and said calmly, "That's good!"
Old Deng's heart tightened, and he asked cautiously, "Lord Lone Wolf, Ms. Luvia, will you... let me go?"
His voice trembled slightly, clearly because he was afraid of receiving a negative answer.
Su Yue replied without hesitation, "Of course! I'm a man of my word!"
He did not kill the 80-year-old comrade.
They only took about 20% of his blood and made him endure an hour of torture.
And very considerately, he emptied his bracelet of all the gold coins and equipment.
Old Deng muttered angrily under his breath:
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river!"
"Young people have no sportsmanship and are bullying an old man like me!"
"Once I step out of the Huachuang Building, I will reveal the secret of my Lone Wolf talent to the world!"
Old Deng drank the "vitality potion" and the "stamina potion" in succession, and gradually felt a return of strength.
He pressed himself against the wall and began to stagger away.
With each step he took, he would glance back.
Lu Wei remained expressionless, while Su Yue wore a wicked grin, which made him involuntarily quicken his pace.
However, just as Su Yue had predicted, Lao Deng was about to flee the scene when he "accidentally" bumped into Xing Gang.
"Xing Gang, please save me! Use your healing magic!" Old Deng cried weakly for help.
Looking at the frail and weak old man, Xing Gang couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
With Lone Wolf's agility and strength, how could he possibly let Old Deng escape?
"I possess top-tier healing techniques, worth 100,000 gold coins, or equivalent to 1,000 resource capsules!"
Xing Gang's eyes gleamed with greed; he clearly didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to extort money.
“You need to understand, based on your blood flow rate, you only have five minutes left to speak.” He spoke calmly, as if he were talking about something insignificant.
However, Xing Gang never expected that Lao Deng had already been squeezed dry by Su Yue.
His bracelet was empty except for a few supply capsules and a few bottles of medicine.
Old Deng was extremely anxious; he couldn't die like this! The secret of the Lone Wolf hadn't been revealed yet!
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Weren't the Dragon Group members in front of him the perfect candidates to spread the word?
Old Deng, looking mysterious, whispered to Su Yue, "I just discovered a shocking secret. If you're willing to help with the treatment, I'll share it with you!"
He was referring to Su Yue's SSS talent, an ability that allows her to copy or even steal the talents of others.
For Lao Deng and Xing Gang, this matter might not seem like a big deal.
However, this secret was incredibly tempting to the powerful Black Group and Dragon Group behind them.
"Secrets? I'm more interested in gold coins and supply capsules," Xing Gang said unhurriedly.
Old Deng immediately grabbed his attention and said urgently, "This secret concerns Lone Wolf! Don't you want to know? Doesn't your Dragon Group want to understand it more deeply?"
Old Deng bluntly stated: as long as the offer is tempting enough, no one has a reason to refuse.
He noticed the thoughtful expression on Xing Gang's face and, intending to further pique his curiosity, said, "This is about Lone Wolf's SSS-level talent..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Xing Gang swung his staff and suddenly stabbed it into Lao Deng's mouth.
"Secrets are better kept to yourself!" Xing Gang knew that in peacetime, keeping secrets might not be difficult.
But during this apocalyptic catastrophe, he witnessed firsthand the terrifying talent of being able to manipulate human bodies and minds.
Therefore, he understood even more clearly that some secrets must never be revealed.
After several consecutive "Soul Fire Talismans" aimed directly at his mouth, Old Deng was instantly killed.
His head was charred black, and his body collapsed limply to the ground.
Unexpectedly, before his death, Old Deng performed a traditional act, making even his death anything but clean.
It has to be said that when it comes to being disgusting, no one knows better than Old Bi Deng.
Although Su Yue was not present, he had already overheard their conversation clearly thanks to his omniscient abilities.
However, Su Yue didn't care about this. So what if they knew about his SSS-level talent?
Once contestants step onto the final stage of the martial arts tournament, they are as if placed under a spotlight, with nowhere to hide.
What talents and fighting styles they possess will be revealed to all the major families by then.
However, Xing Gang's actions greatly changed Su Yue's impression of him.
What he demonstrated was precisely the wisdom and skill that a city manager should possess.
When Xing Gang entered the office, he found that Su Yue and Lu Wei had already disappeared.
Meanwhile, new announcements echoed from every corner of Xingcheng:
