Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Isabella believes that Naike is a talent. If he is taken as his subordinate, it will not only be a gain for the company, but also increase his own resources, thereby improving his status in the company. Within the company, every time you move up a level, the increase in power is far more obvious than outside the company, and there is no ceiling for this improvement.

Even if one rises to the rank of president within a constitutional government, there is still legal supervision above one's head. But there is no upper limit for the company. It can be said that if you can enter the core department of the head office and become a senior executive, you are only protected by the law and no longer have legal supervision. Although there are still company system constraints, only the company system is left. Once you reach the top of the company, the system is to speak the charter and follow the law.

Things that are too far away are just illusions for the time being, Isabella focuses on the present, and she is just a little short of outstanding achievements to move from the front line to management. As long as you have the three merits of frontline, management and scientific research at the same time, you will have the opportunity to enter the company's core circle. Even if you still stay in the Peicheng branch, you can immediately obtain higher authority and resources. To develop Naike, as long as Naike does a good job, then Naike's frontline achievements will be equal to her management achievements. And if that kind of interesting martial arts can be provided to the company and adopted, it can also be considered a scientific research achievement, which is exactly what Isabella wants.

Therefore, Isabella hopes that Nike can join the company willingly instead of being snatched into it by her. Even if you spend more words and give him more benefits, these are still within the acceptable range. But what does Naike like? Judging from his performance, I'm afraid the effect of simply using money will not be good. Maybe we can give him a little sweetness from the perspective of social status. But Isabella believes that what Nike really wants...

"I want freedom of action. Just like a mercenary, I can refuse commissioned tasks that I don't like, and I can also freely choose the method and harvest on the premise of completing the task. I don't want to be tied to the office or the training ground. I You can go wherever you want." Zhuang Xuteng took the lead in saying what he wanted, which saved Isabella's time. "If you want to recruit me, at least explain clearly what the benefits are and whether you can meet my requirements? If you are sincere, then we can negotiate. If not, even if you catch me, it will definitely not be as good as bargaining and reaching an agreement. .Are you right?"

Isabella nodded, then pointed to the door and said: "You stay inside, I will ask the personnel for some treatment. You are smarter than me. When I was asked to join the company, I missed the bargaining process, and as a result, I started from a bad start. A little lower than others.”

Zhuang Xuteng smiled and responded: "Okay, I'll go sit inside for a while. Can you bring Brother Flathead over for me? I can make a few calls to confirm the situation, and at the same time, I'm waiting for the idiots from the Canghuo Gang to leave. Let’s see your sincerity. You can take less money, but you need more freedom. I want freedom of movement, don’t forget it!”

After saying that, Zhuang Xuteng raised his middle finger towards the gangsters from the Canghuo Gang, then took the flat-head brother that Isabella handed over and turned around and walked into the building. The members of the Canghuo Gang who were originally demolishing the protective layer saw him approaching and quickly dropped their tools and left. Just kidding, he can kill two elders with one blow, and his whole body looks uninjured, and his whole body looks good. Who dares to fight him again? There is actually a ruthless character among the mercenaries, and it will be difficult for future gangs to get along. Why didn't Colonel Taft kill him with one punch? Why did he leave such a scourge behind?

"Come on, come on. There's nothing worth remembering here!" After Zhuang Xuteng drove them away, he returned to Meteor's studio, took out a soft cloth sponge bag from under the smashed equipment, and used it as a sofa to sit on.

A few minutes later, the PCPD siren came from the distance, mixed with the sound of shadow guns and chemical energy firearms firing. At this time, the company's power also began to withdraw, and mobile phone communications were restored immediately. His phone vibrated and he took it out to look at it. Sure enough, it was Lucy calling.

"Sister Lucy, how is the situation? Are you injured?" Zhuang Xuteng answered the phone and asked.

"I'm fine. Meteor is here too. She's fine too. Thank you." Lucy said, "How are you? What is Ding Xin Mo Chuang going to do?"

"I'm fine, but I'm a little tired from the fight. I killed two elders of the Canghuo Gang. Did you see that at the music restaurant?"

"I saw it, we all saw it. What's next?"

"I haven't thought about it. If I can't break my thighs with my arms, maybe I will join the company directly - let's see what kind of benefits I can get first. Working as a mercenary is for money, and working for the company is also for money. But I was in the company before Working in the factory below was a very bad experience, so I tend not to join. Sister Lucy, maybe we have to work for the company and exchange services for freedom of movement. We were just blocked by Dingxin Magic and the Canghuo Gang. Come to beat them, and then work for them, can you accept it?"

"Yes, absolutely yes, as long as we can get through the difficulties." Lucy said.

After Zhuang Xuteng got a satisfactory answer, he hung up the phone and continued to sit on the sofa to rest. At the same time, he opened the Wraith Jelly and searched in Meteor's room. He didn't want to join a company, especially Dingxin Magic, a bastard company that sold weapons, raised gangs, and sold the cars invented by his brother everywhere. Many things in the world can be compromised, but some things just can't.

His conversation with Isabel, his call with Lucy, and his expression of willingness to consider joining the company were all staged, all in order to stall for time and then find a way to leave the scene. With Isabella's strength, she would definitely be able to hear Zhuang Xuteng's voice, including his conversation with Lucy. All Zhuang Xuteng's good words were just to numb her and make her think that she really wanted to join the company.

The problem here is difficult to solve: the remnants of the Canghuo Gang, Lucy's mercenaries, and the PCPD who are about to swarm in. In full view of the public, Zhuang Xuteng cannot conflict with Isabella of Dingxin Magic. It's not good to be beaten by her, but if he accidentally beats her up, Dingxin Magic will never allow him to be embarrassed in public. Zhuang Xuteng will definitely face continuous harassment and attacks later.

And the PCPD is coming soon. To put it more clearly: Morgana is coming. Zhuang Xuteng was most afraid that Morgana would appear and try to save him, which would bring endless troubles, but it was really possible that she would do that. If you want to solve the problem, it's best to change the place and the time, with no audience around, just Zhuang Xuteng and Isabella, this is the best. A senior manager of the development department is not invincible, let alone invincible. Zhuang Xuteng was a little worried about her strength, but he was definitely not afraid of her.

You have to act fast. Now Isabella is still outside coordinating and directing the Canghuo Gang to run into the PCPD in an orderly manner, and she has to call the Dingxin Mochuang Peicheng Branch to apply for Zhuang Xuteng's treatment. After a while, after the PCPD comes up, she will definitely leave the street and most likely come in to find Zhuang Xuteng, then there will be no escape!

Wraith Jelly searched the room and soon found Meteor's secret escape route. She once tried to leave here, but she met someone from the Canghuo Gang on the way and came back as a last resort. Now that the PCPD has arrived and the Canghuo Gang has evacuated, it is entirely possible that the escape route can be used again. After finding the passage, Zhuang Xuteng summoned the sick lady and asked her to sneak inside to check the situation. After that, he took out the invisibility cloak from a position close to his body, carefully unfolded it, and carefully checked whether there was any damage on the surface. Finally, he put Brother Flathead on his back and connected it to the invisibility cloak, putting them on standby and ready to be activated at any time.

Another two minutes passed, and the red and blue flashes of the PCPD convoy came closer, and Isabella knew she should get off the street. The branch office hasn't replied to her yet, but just said that the matter has been reported to the higher ups and there will definitely be a response within half an hour. The superiors expressed satisfaction with this operation. All the elders of the Canghuo Gang were dead, which was equivalent to cutting off the connection between the gang and the company at once, greatly reducing the tediousness of the follow-up processing work.

This battle proved that gangs are not as fast as the middleman-mercenary system in cultivating top combat capabilities, and the side effects of social impact are greater. They have lagged behind the times and the needs of the company. Safety blue has completely replaced blue crystal, the new industrial layout has been smoothly launched, and the role of gangsters in controlling social order has continued to decline. In the past, it was necessary to retain a force at the bottom of society that could interfere with and harm the constitutional government. Now the middlemen-mercenaries have stepped forward, not only forming a legal industry, but also not having to deal with the PCPD very much, so they can naturally take over some of the work of the original gangs.

The gang will not disappear completely, the knife can be hidden, there is no need to break it when not in use! The four major gangs represent the era when the four major companies competed with each other. Now that the four major companies have joined forces, there is no need for four gangs. These gangs can all die. It doesn't matter if they are killed by the PCPD or slowly cannibalized by middlemen-mercenaries. They only need to keep the most elite and core forces and continue to exist under different identities.

Everything is going smoothly - or in other words, the company's work is going smoothly. Now it's up to us to see if we can benefit from this. She gave the order to evacuate and asked the deputy to drive and wait outside the PCPD cordon for further instructions to pick up the person. Then, she walked to the artist's studio...

At this time, she heard the sound of the toilet lid opening, followed by the sound of gurgling water. Obviously, Zhuang Xuteng was relieving himself, so it might not look good if he barged in at this time. So Isabella stopped at the door, listening to the movement upstairs and watching the PCPD's slow pace of action.

"You can really pee...what kind of implant did you use?" Isabella listened to it for more than two minutes, and the sound of peeing didn't stop. After waiting for another minute, the sound continued, and Isabel felt something was wrong.

"Naike, I admire you very much. You can hold it in during a fight without even peeing your pants." She deliberately spoke loudly and stomped upstairs. If Naike was still in the bathroom, he would definitely respond, but there was no movement at all upstairs. Isabel got angry, stamped her foot, punched it through the floor, and rushed into the toilet. Where can I find Naike? A hose connected to the faucet and a few ropes tied to the toilet directed everything.

"Asshole! Where is it hidden?" Isabel immediately started the eye implant and scanned the surroundings for analysis of infrared signals, shadow energy residues, and air dust flow. Based on comprehensive analysis, she quickly discovered the entrance to the secret escape passage and found a fingerprint on the door frame that had not completely dissipated.

"Escaped? Escaped! I just praised you for being smart, isn't this a slap in my face?" Isabel grabbed the secret door with both hands and was about to open it when her intelligence analysis assistant started to call the police. At this time, she looked inside through the gap in the secret door and found a thin thread that was difficult to detect.

"You dare to plant a bomb? When I find you, I have to give you to..." Before Isabella could finish her scolding, she used the universal tool on her wrist to defy the "bomb" with her built-in image slave.

Zhuang Xuteng knew that the bomb would have no effect on Isabella, so he just left her a note that read: "I am not ready to join the job, so I have to leave. I want to be free, please don't come after me." Besides, you are very beautiful and there are so many people outside that I am embarrassed to say it. Scarecrow."

This note disturbed Isabella, and her left and right faces had opposite expressions of joy and anger respectively, causing her whole person to look distorted and ferocious. She calmed down for a moment and thought about it, and then she realized that this was Zhuang Xuteng's revenge on her: when negotiating the deal before, she had played a trick and said, "I can get someone out of the building." Naike knew clearly that he would not make any money in exchange for one. , and still agreed; now Naike asked her to ask the company to give him enough freedom before joining, which was obviously a rhetorical trap. If we are given freedom, we will leave; if we are not given freedom, we will not join but we will still leave.

When she realized that she had been cheated, she must have felt unhappy, but at the end of the note, she also complimented her on how beautiful she was, showing that she was not disrespectful. Isabella knew that she was "of course" beautiful, but she was usually "more majestic" and others would only speak seriously and would not mention this advantage. I didn’t expect this scarecrow Naike to be quite discerning... No! Isabella frowned and cursed secretly: The most important thing now is not thinking, but action. Catch that little bastard quickly!

She opened the secret passage and got in, chasing forward based on the information about the dust disturbance in the air. Her intelligence analysis system was constantly receiving new data, which showed that Scarecrow Naike was running on his hands and knees in the passage, scratching at the walls at a very high frequency, as if he was spinning around in the passage. This made his speed continue to increase, and he had obviously run far away.

So Isabella also started to speed up. She activated the implant and dashed, dashed, dashed... In the secret passage that kept turning, and in the sewer that she entered next, there was no long enough straight line distance at all, so the high-speed implant could only half-charge and half-explode. , flickering by and by makes people uncomfortable. At this point, medical implants stepped in to help relieve the pressure on her nerves. Isabella has long been accustomed to this state and does not find it unbearable, but she definitely wants better. Especially after seeing Zhuang Xuteng's martial arts performance as he continued to move in the passage, his desire to get him became even stronger.

"You can't run away at all!" Isabella thought to herself: "You don't understand the huge gap in combat power between you and me!"

Soon, the secret passage came to an end. Pushing open a door that was ajar, Isabella found that in front of her was the flowing water of the Pei River, and she was in the last open section of a drainage channel.

There was no trace of Naike in his field of vision.
