[Endless Killing: My Fireball Has a Bug! – Chapter 348 The So-called Long-Term Plan!]
Mr. Qiao himself said that he was “taking advantage of his age to gain benefits.”
But at this meeting, he was indeed highly respected.
He knocked the conference table with a walnut that he had been playing with in his hand for years.
Just this one move silenced the voices in the entire conference room.
A pair of eyes looked towards Mr. Qiao.
Mr. Qiao’s face looks older than Weng Xun’s.
The wrinkles around his eyes made him look even more solemn and dignified.
He was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: “I know you are deliberately engaging in moral kidnapping.”
“But Bakanov’s threats are not just aimed at God’s favored ones.”
“Today he wants to kill Shen’s favored one, we push Shen’s favored one out.”
“He’s going to kill me tomorrow, so you guys push me out.”
“He is going to destroy our Great Xia Kingdom the day after tomorrow. What are you going to do?”
“How long has it been? Do you want history to repeat itself?”
These words were a bit harsh, and everyone present shook their heads.
Old Qiao said in a deep voice: “Bakanov is like a nuclear bomb. He may not be detonated, but as long as he exists, he is a threat to our Great Xia Kingdom.”
“And nuclear bombs like the Bakanov will continue to emerge in the future.”
“Being infatuated with someone is not a long-term solution; defeating Bakanov is not a long-term solution either.”
“What our Great Xia Nation really needs is a nuclear bomb that can intimidate other powerful nations.”
Mr. Qiao stood up slowly and glanced at the dozen or so people present.
These dozen people are all younger than him.
He exhaled slowly, and then continued: “What I just said was from the heart–“
“This world is destined to belong to you young people.”
“Times have changed, and people’s thinking has to adapt to the times.”
“But I hope that everyone will seize the opportunity to become stronger no matter what, no matter how much infighting there is or how much change of heart there is—”
“Please don’t forget your roots and the name of the land under your feet.”
Mr. Qiao’s speech was not very passionate.
But his tone was steady and solemn, deep and cool, and his words struck directly at the soul.
The conference room fell into deeper silence.
Even quieter than when Lin Chuan held the sickle against Weng Xun’s neck.
Luo Yanping knew that what Mr. Qiao said was not for him, but he was still somewhat relieved.
Xu Huiyan directly grasped the key point of what Mr. Qiao said, and agreed:
“Indeed. Submission to Bakanov is not a long-term solution.”
“We in the Great Xia Kingdom do need a nuclear bomb!”
This is what is said on the surface.
In fact, it brought out a little thought hidden deep in everyone’s mind——
Find a way to kill Bakanov!
The so-called nuclear bomb actually refers to players from the Great Xia Kingdom who have absolute strength!
How to train such players and who to train?
The conflicts of interest involved are unlikely to satisfy everyone.
However, there is now an opportunity in front of everyone——
Bakanov!
It is both a threat and an opportunity!
As long as he is killed, then his people will be killed, and they can become the “nuclear bomb” of the Great Xia Kingdom!
These unspoken words were understood in everyone’s heart.
So a new question arises——
How to kill Bakanov?
At this time, Lin Chuan, who had only said one sentence before to stir up the conflict and had not participated in the whole process for a while, spoke again:
“I don’t know what you mean by hiding it and not daring to speak out.”
“Are you that afraid of Bakanov? Are you afraid that if you tell him now, he will drop from the sky and take your life?”
“Are you still from Daxia? Do you have to be so scared?”
These words still maintain the arrogant personality that Lin Chuan has established for himself.
However, many people present had stiff expressions again.
But this time Lin Chuan didn’t want to humiliate them, he just wanted to break the deadlock.
It will be easier to discuss things if we talk about them openly.
Xu Huiyan saw that Lin Chuan had made everything clear, and indeed there was no situation where Bakanov suddenly appeared.
He was silent for a moment, then spoke again: “Mr. Yuan has a point. I won’t hide anything from you.”
“I think everyone has the same idea as me. They all want to deal with Bakanov, the time bomb.”
“But considering Bakanov’s strength, it is not unreasonable for him to be so arrogant.”
“If we go head-on and fight alone, we will have no chance.”
“So, we have to gain some wisdom! Do you have any ideas?”
Xu Huiyan has made the problem clear.
This way, the meeting will be easier to proceed.
Everyone saw that Xu Huiyan had also made it clear that he wanted to kill Bakanov, and they were also not killed by Bakanov who suddenly appeared from the sky.
The shadow of Bakanov in my heart also gradually dissipated.
They realized that no matter how strong Bakanov performed.
Even if he could bring about miracles, he was not God after all.
Maybe he really can win…
After the knot in their hearts was untied, people would occasionally come up with ways to deal with Bakanov.
The first thing that comes to mind is the Duel Gold Card!
Lin Chuan was once given a duel gold card by Song Sandong.
Unfortunately, the Tower of Eternity has already been opened.
Bakanov is not stupid either, he has exempted himself from the battle in the Tower of Eternity, so the Duel Gold Card has no effect on him.
Then people kept proposing various conspiracies and tricks, but none of them were very feasible.
Just when everyone was feeling discouraged again.
Lin Chuan suddenly blurted out, “I wonder if you have heard of this thing that can make players lose their talents… I can’t quite remember what it was.”
Although he said this casually, Lin Chuan-ye was observing everyone present.
Represented by the Tianji Pavilion and the Nie family, their faces are confused and their brows are wrinkled.
Their micro-expressions show that they probably don’t know or understand this kind of thing.
As for those represented by the Xu and Luo families, their expressions froze for a moment, and then they tried hard to remain calm.
Lin Chuan was certain of this.
Even in the strategy group, not everyone knows about the Liquid Forbidden Stone.
The main people I have come into contact with should be people from the Xu family and the Luo family.
It is not clear yet whether the two companies have any cooperative relationship.
At this time, it was Xu Huiyan who responded to Lin Chuan’s question:
“I’ve heard of this thing before, it seems to be a forbidden stone.”
“Forbidden stones are divided into solid, liquid and gaseous states.”
“Solid forbidden stone can block players’ talents and skills within a certain range!”
“Injecting liquid forbidden stone into the player’s blood can cause the player to lose their talents and skills directly!”
“The gaseous forbidden stone is even more like a biological weapon. Once it is spread out, it can be passed through breathing, causing those who inhale it to lose their talents and skills to varying degrees!”
Speaking of this, the first time people heard about the forbidden stone, they couldn’t help but take a deep breath and sighed:
“This thing sounds… too scary!”
“In other words, if someone throws a piece of gaseous forbidden stone into our conference room right now, all of us will become garbage if we fail to react in time?!!”
“This… this is simply too horrible and inhumane!!”
The players’ voices all expressed deep fear and trepidation towards the forbidden gas stone.
Fortunately, Xu Huiyan added: “But don’t worry, both gaseous forbidden stones and liquid forbidden stones are extremely rare!”
“Generally speaking, we can only obtain the forbidden stone in solid form.”
“The cost of converting the solid forbidden stone into liquid or gas is too great.”
“At least the gas forbidden stone will not be able to exist in the world for a long time.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Weng Xun suddenly asked in a deep voice: “According to what you mean, your Xu family has liquid forbidden stone?”
Xu Huiyan shook his head quickly: “That’s not true. Our Xu family was just lucky enough to find a solid forbidden stone from a golden treasure chest.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s eyes lit up——
“The solid forbidden stone is also very good! We can use the solid forbidden stone and combine it with the forbidden space transmission item boundary stone to completely control Bakanov to death!”
“Without his natural skills, and unable to use a teleportation item to escape! Then, won’t Bakanov be at the mercy of others?!”
Xu Huiyan smiled bitterly and shook his head: “I’m afraid it won’t work. The forbidden stone in our Xu family is very small. I’m afraid it can only confine an area with a radius of about 5 meters.”
“There’s no need for any teleportation tools in that area. With his speed, Bakanov can probably escape easily!”
Xu Huiyan’s tone was full of regret, and he sighed:
“If there is a forbidden stone of a larger size, maybe I can really give it a try…”
At the same time, Mr. Qiao also added: “I remember someone speculated that Lin Chuan seemed to have the ability to temporarily prevent players from using their talent skills. I don’t know if his ability comes from the forbidden stone or something else?”
Wang Shiyun casually speculated: “It should be a forbidden stone, right?”
However, Luo Yanping shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice: “According to the information I have learned, Lin Chuan’s ability is likely to come from talent.”
“The special feature of the forbidden stone is that it does not distinguish between friend and foe.”
“That is to say, within the range of the forbidden stone, not only the enemy cannot use the talent skills, Lin Chuan himself should also be unable to use it.”
“But according to the players who survived from the South Four Rooftops, Lin Chuan prevented other players from using their talents, but he himself was able to use them!”
“So there is reason to speculate that Lin Chuan’s ability comes from his natural talent!”
Luo Yanping’s argument was well-reasoned, and the other players nodded in agreement.
Wang Shiyun blurted out another sentence: “Then Lin Chuan has such a heaven-defying talent, isn’t he directly invincible? He directly used the forbidden magic on Bakanov, and then used his talent to kill Bakanov, isn’t it easy?”
Luo Yanping shook his head: “No, although talent can distinguish enemies from us better than forbidden stones, its use is still affected by the player’s strength.”
“One is affected by talent level, and the other is affected by level oppression.”
“Lin Chuan’s level is not as good as Bakanov’s. Under the level suppression, his magic-forbidden talent will probably have little impact on Bakanov!”
As he said this, Lin Chuan suddenly looked at Luo Yanping and said, “From Mr. Luo’s tone, it seems that he also knows a lot about forbidden stones? Could it be that your Luo family also has forbidden stones?”
Luo Yanping’s face froze and he looked at Lin Chuan.
After a moment of silence, he shook his head and said, “Although my Luo family has the Liquid Forbidden Stone, Bakanov is not stupid. We have no chance to inject him with the Liquid Forbidden Stone!”
“Oh? Really?” Lin Chuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, “But when I just arrived outside Tiantongyuan, I heard the group of people outside saying that your Luo family seemed to have wasted someone’s talent?”
“Why can we dethrone ordinary people but not Bakanov?”
Lin Chuan’s words were like breaking through a layer of window paper!
At the conference table, Xu Huiyan’s expression stiffened for a moment.
Lin Chuan speculated that Gong Shiyi’s talent being wasted might also be related to his Xu family.
However, the people of Tianji Pavilion and Nie family seemed unaware of it.
They looked at Luo Yanping with disbelief, doubt and questioning, and even a hint of fear!
After all, being able to discard strong talents is something…
Even these strong men would be jealous!
As a result, the eyes looking at Luo Yanping gradually changed from questioning to less friendly.
Old Qiao was also a smart man. He suddenly looked at Xu Huiyan and said, “What about the Luo family? Xiao Xu, are you involved as well?”
