Fan Xian glanced at Zuo Yu, sat down opposite him, and said softly, "Brother Zhao said that Emperor Qing is the biological father of this body of mine after all, and how to deal with him ultimately depends on my attitude, so Brother Zhao returned the soul he had taken away to me."
"I originally wanted to let him reincarnate, but after seeing the dirty laundry submitted by the Supervisory Council about the Governor's Office of River Transport and the innocent people who died at the hands of these black-hearted officials, I changed my mind and begged Brother Zhao to seal his soul into this armor."
"I will keep him in the Imperial Study, let him see what he has done, and watch with his own eyes how I destroy his kingdom and bring the high and mighty Li royal family down to the ground!"
Noticing the violent soul fluctuations in the armor stand, Zuo Yu couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
This little guy looks kind, but he is quite vicious when he gets angry...
Fan Xian smiled and said, "I have already ordered the dismissal of the eunuchs and palace maids, freeing them from slavery and returning them to civilian status. At the same time, I will build textile factories, brick factories, and steel mills near Kyoto, so that they can have a livelihood in the future."
"As for Emperor Qing's concubines, I have already sent them back. Except for the eldest prince who led the troops on the frontier, all my brothers were demoted to commoners by me, and the royal family was also changed from the surname Li to Fan."
"But I know that those royal princes will definitely not resign themselves to this and will start a rebellion soon. I have asked the Overwatch Council to keep an eye on them, but we may still be short of manpower by then, so we may even have to ask Boss Zuo and Brother Zhao to borrow some troops."
Zuo Yu waved his hand and said generously: "No problem, lend it to me at will!"
"Whatever type of troops you want, light cavalry, heavy cavalry, magic corps, divine corps, modern mechanical troops, interstellar fleets, and even interstellar fleet versions of the undead army, our alliance has everything!"
Hearing Zuo Yu's heroic words, Fan Xian couldn't help but be fascinated.
But soon, the cruel reality made his voice become smaller.
"Um...Boss Zuo." Fan Xian asked in a low voice, "Which one is cheaper?"
…
…
Void gap, Traveler Square.
Zuo Yu walked out of the silver portal, stretched slightly, and then looked at the portal next to him thoughtfully.
This portal has been hidden by the Void and only he can see it.
Before, the main clone Lin Zhongtian had sent him a message, asking him to deal with the world of One Punch Man and then rush to this world to take a look.
Out of some unknown evil taste, Lin Zhongtian did not share his memories with him at that time. He only said that he had gone there in advance and left some interesting things there.
"You're being so mysterious with me..."
Zuo Yu shook his head and walked over with a smile: "Then let's go and take a look!"
…
…
As night falls, neon lights cover the entire city.
The streets that should have been full of order and color were now filled with a foul smell mixed with various strange flavors.
In the dirty and smelly alley, black garbage plastic bags were piled up randomly, covered with flies and dust.
Several homeless people in ragged clothes sat on cotton mats stained with various suspicious ** marks, leaning against trash cans and walls, wearing the cheapest basic VR equipment on their heads.
Compared with the cold, cruel and dirty reality, the world lit up on the screen is the only color in their lives.
Suddenly, the iron gate at the deepest part of the alley was pushed open, and three tall figures walked out cursing.
All three of them were wearing dark red leather jackets, with their black bulletproof vests exposed unscrupulously between their open chests.
Each of them had a black pistol on their waist, and their bodies were covered with mechanical traces, especially their faces, which were inlaid with exaggerated mechanical prosthetic eyes that no longer looked human.
Three red lights lit up from the mechanical prosthetic eye that occupied half of the face. He did not look like a human, but more like a robot covered in human skin.
This exaggerated level of transformation is quite explosive even in today's highly prosthetic Night City.
There is no doubt that these three people are members of the famous Night City gang - the Vortex Gang!
"Damn it, this is so unlucky!"
The slightly skinny member of the Vortex Gang kicked the iron door behind him while cursing.
The companion next to him smiled and patted him on the shoulder, took out three inhalers from his arms and gave them to them.
The three of them each held an inhaler, stood in front of the iron gate, took a puff, and then exhaled with a dazed and relaxed look on their faces.
"No, it's not strong enough - this thing you got is still not as good as the gang's best-selling product [Numbness], which is the real good stuff!"
At this point, the skinny member of the Whirlpool Gang seemed to be unable to hold back and immediately waved his hand:
"Let's go to the Dance of Death Club!"
The two companions responded, and the three of them walked out of the alley excitedly.
At this moment, the homeless man sitting on the cotton mat next to the trash can seemed to see something interesting, and an unbearable groan came from the digital screen on his face.
The tramp's mouth slightly stretched into a silly grin.
The right hand, which was obviously not modified, also reached into the crotch without any hesitation.
Perhaps because the posture was too awkward, the homeless man unconsciously stretched one leg out of the cotton pad.
“Bang!”
With a sound like a watermelon breaking, the metal prosthetic limb stepped nonchalantly on the homeless man's outstretched leg.
The skin and flesh were squeezed and burst, blood splattered like juice, and the leg bones were shattered. The whole leg became a bloody and twisted mess in an instant.
But even so, the three members of the Vortex Gang didn't care at all. They didn't even stop and just walked past them chatting and laughing.
It was not until the homeless man came to his senses from the beauty of the virtual world and screamed while holding his twisted thigh that the three Uzumaki Gang members who had passed by him finally stopped.
Scary screams and unbearable groans echoed in the alley.
The skinny member of the Vortex Gang turned around cursing, walked up to the homeless man who was covering his leg and screaming, pulled out his pistol without hesitation, aimed at the digital screen on the homeless man's head and pulled the trigger.
“Bang!”
The bullet pierced through the screen, and a flower of blood bloomed behind the homeless man's head.
The homeless man's body fell limply, leaning against the trash can, completely lifeless.
"Pfft! Bad luck!"
The skinny Vortex Gang member spat and kicked the homeless man's body before turning around and walking towards his two companions, cursing.
Blood gushed out of the homeless man's body, quickly soaking the entire cotton pad and attracting countless flies from the trash cans.
The warm and damp feeling spread to another homeless man next to him.
He curled up his legs slightly and continued to immerse himself in the beauty of the virtual world, seemingly not caring at all about what was happening in the outside world.
It's just a life. The homeless man didn't care, and the three members of the Vortex Gang who killed people at will didn't care. This beautiful Night City naturally wouldn't care either!
Just as the three Vortex Gang members walked out of the alley, a young man in a suit and tie suddenly walked over from the side.
The three members of the Vortex Gang inhaled the fog and looked dazed. They bumped into the young man in the suit without paying attention.
The young man in the suit steadied his steps, frowned, and raised his hand to smooth the wrinkles on his suit.
The three members of the Vortex Gang were now furious and began to curse at the young man in the suit.
"Fuck you, can you even look at the road?!"
"Would you like me to take off your eyes and give you a pair of better mechanical prosthetic eyes?!"
The young man in the suit frowned and looked at the three people in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze. Gao Gaoyi's eyes flashed with streams of data.
After a moment, the information of the three people appeared in front of him.
The young man in the suit understood what was going on and his eyes moved down to the chest of the dark red leather jacket they were wearing.
Not surprisingly, there was a skull spider pattern similar to the horror robot in Red Alert!
It turned out to be the Vortex Gang...
This is Watson District, the base of the Vortex Gang, and the Death Dance Club is not far away. It is not advisable to get into any trouble with these three scumbags.
Thinking of this, the young man in a suit said politely: "Thank you, but no, my artificial eye is very useful."
After saying this, the young man in a suit walked forward calmly, carrying his briefcase.
The three members of the Vortex Gang were afraid of the suit he was wearing and did not dare to chase him.
But because he had just inhaled something, the young man in the suit had a somewhat cowardly attitude. The three members of the Vortex Gang suddenly became arrogant. They stood in place, looking at the young man in the suit's back and continued to curse.
Just as the three Vortex Gang members began to greet the young man in the suit's mother, the young man in the suit suddenly stopped and walked back backwards.
The skinny member of the Vortex Gang was stunned for a moment, then he pulled out the pistol from his waist with a grin and pointed it at the head of the young man in the suit.
"Why, you want to meet me?"
"This is Watson District, I advise you to get out of here, corporate dog!"
The cold muzzle of a gun was pointed at his head, but the young man in the suit showed no fear at all.
He looked carefully at the tops of the heads of the three Vortex Gang members, then looked past them at the bloody alley behind them.
"Very good." The young man in the suit nodded slightly and said, "The health bar is showing, there is nothing we can do!"
"……What?"
The member of the Vortex Gang who was pointing a gun at the young man in suit's head was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, the young man in the suit crashed into the arms of a member of the Vortex Gang. The genetically modified chitin shell installed on his arm instantly bounced open, and a fiery red thermal mantis knife shot out from it.
“Puff——”
The thermal knife pierced through the man's chest, turning the prosthetic heart into a burning human heart.
The hot blood splashed on his face, but the young man in the suit didn't care. He raised his hand and cut the man's body in half from the heart to the head. Then he pushed his body down and leaped towards the two shocked members of the Vortex Gang behind him.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two gunshots rang out, and the bodies of the Vortex Gang members holding guns were separated, and their headless bodies fell to the ground with a bang.
The young man in a suit stood expressionlessly in front of the two corpses. The heat energy on the blade was stimulated, evaporating the blood, which then automatically retracted into his arm.
[Kill 3 members of the Vortex Gang...]
[Received a reward of 980 Euros from NCPD...]
[Reward experience 284, system points 103...]
As expected, they were just three useless NPCs, and the reward was just this little, not even a piece of equipment dropped.
The young man in the suit shook his head, picked up the briefcase on the roadside again, turned his back to the three bloody corpses, looked at the various vehicles coming and going on the street and sighed.
"Another quiet and peaceful day..."
After expressing his feelings, the young man in the suit took another step and continued forward.
