Wu Qi thought he would see Zuo Chen die from being shot, but he waited and waited and did not hear the sound of a gunshot. Instead, he was kicked away by Zuo Chen's adjutant, Black Eagle.
It crashed straight into the metal wall.
He was pinned to the ground by two guards.
When he looked up again, he realized that his laser projectile had been blocked by an invisible airflow.
Wu Qi exclaimed in surprise, "You actually know mystical arts?!"
These words were spoken.
Those present were also surprised.
Wow, their king is quite good at hiding his true identity.
Wu Qi had long been prepared for Qu Jian'er to make a protective talisman for Zuo Chen, so the trajectory of his laser gun was engraved with the mutually reinforcing and restraining talismans he had bought at a high price.
Even a four-star Taoist priest, no matter how powerful his magic, might not be able to stop this extremely powerful laser gun.
Who would have thought?
Zuo Chen himself is a sorcerer.
He had planned everything meticulously, but he overlooked this one crucial point.
But.
Since Zuo Chen knows magic, why doesn't he show it? Instead, he keeps relying on Qu Jian'er.
None of the information he gathered explicitly stated that Zuo Chen was a sorcerer.
and.
He also discovered that Zuo Chen and Qu Jian'er had long been estranged, yet they never separated, all because they wanted to rely on Qu Jian'er's mystical abilities.
Could it be that all the information he gathered was false?
That group is widely recognized as a group of haters of the emperor and empress.
There can't be any mistake.
The information he bought was all first-hand.
Impossible...
Zuo Chen glanced at Wu Qi with a dark and brooding look, which sent a chill down Wu Qi's spine. His gaze slowly and coldly traced from Wu Qi's eyebrows to his jaw.
This drove Wu Qi to extreme madness.
Wu trembled and roared, "Zuo Chen, do you dare admit that you've deceived everyone?!"
Everyone: "..." Oh my god, does this thing not have a brain? Does the king need to report to you on what he does?
Zuo Chen's lips curved into a smile, the hard soles of his leather boots striking the floor with a crisp sound that stood out unusually in the quiet environment.
He stopped in front of Wu Qi.
Looking down at the person in front of him from his high position.
The cold gaze slowly seeped into Wu Qi's heart, instilling in him a fear that was born from the very core of his being.
Wu Qi was on high alert.
Zuo Chen's eyes looked as if he were looking at a dead man.
Does Zuo Chen want to kill him?!
The blood that had been boiling with excitement because of the imminent threat to life and the deception suddenly calmed down.
He cannot die yet.
Wu Qi shook his head: "You can't kill me!"
Zuo Chen asked with great interest, "Why?"
Wu Qi gritted his teeth.
He is not afraid of death.
I fear I won't kill the enemy before I die.
So he had to live a life of ignominy, and he had to survive by any means necessary; he couldn't die yet.
Wu Qi roared, "I am the last member of the Wu family. If you kill me, the Wu family will be completely wiped out. The world will think you are ruthless and that the ruler they recommended is a tyrant..."
Zuo Chen didn't listen to Wu Qi finish speaking.
He glanced at Black Hawk.
Black Hawk obeyed the order and chose to shoot Wu Qi.
Wu Qi endured the pain, which was not directly fatal.
His eyes held a look of confusion.
Why?
Isn't Zuo Chen afraid of outsiders gossiping?
Wu Qi's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Zuo Chen raised an eyebrow: "I let you live before because I wanted to see what methods you would use to deal with me."
He casually uttered chilling words, and the look in his eyes at Wu Qi was easy to interpret—"Nothing special."
Wu Qi was bewildered and at a loss.
It turns out that he had been under Zuo Chen's surveillance all along.
But he was still smug about it.
They thought they had escaped a disaster.
Wu Qi fell to the ground, his eyes wide open in death.
Zuo Chen looked at the people standing in a row with a quiet gaze.
Those people were so frightened they were speechless.
They had just come from the battlefield, but they felt that the current battlefield was even more deadly than fighting the Zerg.
They obediently remained silent, knelt on one knee, closed their eyes, and resignedly awaited judgment—a fear and submission to the strong passed down through their genes.
Zuo Chen took a few steps, then suddenly stopped: "I'm giving you three days to deal with your own tails. Three days later, the war between humans and the Zerg will come to an end, and it will also be the time to see if you and the Legion can continue to coexist."
People with inner desires are easier to control.
He decided to give these guys a way out.
Let's see if they know how to seize the opportunity.
One of the terrified generals looked blankly at Black Hawk, who was fighting with his arms crossed: "Black Hawk, what does His Majesty mean by this?"
Black Hawk yawned and shrugged, saying, "Our Emperor is kind-hearted and has left you and those behind you a way out. Cherish what you have."
After Zuo Chen left the command room.
We arrived at the lounge.
Then he received Zuo Muqu's contact number.
Zuo Chen's voice softened: "Hey."
Zuo Muqu held up the children's personal terminal and said in a low voice with a serious expression, "Calling Dad, this is Mumu. I've noticed that Mom is acting strangely and is ready to run away from home at any time. Mumu has come to report and request the next instructions."
Little Zuo Muqu's chubby face was serious. He was barefoot, wearing the dinosaur pajamas that Qu Jian'er had bought for him, and he was hiding under the bed reporting the "enemy situation".
Zuo Chen replied cooperatively, "Received."
He then spoke a few more words with Zuo Muqu.
Then, I played a birthday song for Zuo Muqu.
Zuo Muqu clenched his fist: "Dad, I'm four years old now, I think I can listen to war songs."
Zuo Chen nodded: "I'll definitely do it next time. I've put your birthday present in the secret base. Be a good boy and come home in three days."
