Unscrupulous profiteer

"Bang!" Xiao Lin stretched out her hand to touch the layer of white light covering the Tower of Gods and Demons. As soon as she touched it, her hand bounced away like an electric shock.

"What happened?" Ming and Lie Yun and others also came here at this time, seeing Xiao Lin's anxious face, they asked in puzzlement.

"Zheng Jing is still here. His condition is very bad. If he is not rescued, he will be in trouble!" Xiao Lin was so anxious that she raised her sword and was about to strike at the white light in front of her. Suddenly, his hand reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"It's useless, don't try it." Xiao Meng shook her head at her junior sister, but the stubborn Xiao Lin didn't listen at all. She shook off Xiao Meng's hand and threw the flying sword above her head. Doing this alone, he also called the eight Xiaoyao Sect disciples nearby to join him.

The nine flying swords flew up into the sky together, and after a period of acceleration, the nine swords aimed at one point and shot them together!

The expected earth-shattering scene did not appear, and the flying sword that concentrated all the strength of Xiao Lin and the eight disciples was bounced away as soon as it touched the white light, and then fell lightly.

"How could this happen?" Xiao Lin was dumbfounded, and so were the others. No matter how strong the defense was, it wouldn't prevent their full blows from causing even a little ripple?

"That's a barrier created by using laws. Without the power of the same laws, it would be impossible to pass through anyway." Xiao Meng explained helplessly to everyone.

"Then what should we do now?"

"Don't ask me." Xiao Meng shrugged and said: "I can't tell you the specific situation now, I can only tell you a little bit. Because of certain restrictions, I am no longer your companion. I didn't tell you directly. That's the only thing I can do."

finished.Xiao Meng stopped paying attention to the crowd and walked aside on his own.

"What should I do?" Xiao Lin and Lie Yun were both confused. Their habit has always been to do whatever Zheng Jing asked them to do. Now that Zheng Jing is not here, the only resourceful Xiao Meng is unwilling to help them. Suddenly they don't know what to do.

"There is no need to be in such a hurry." Ming, who had always been very absent, said suddenly, standing aside and lowering his head, and said indifferently: "We can't get in this tower now, and neither can our opponents. But there is one person who can get in and out." freely."

"Who?"

"Zheng Jing. Now that Lei Ting is dead, only Zheng Jing has the power of law in this world, right? I haven't received a reminder of the death of the plane merchant, which means that he is still alive and in this tower. "

Xiao Lin froze for a moment, and then showed an anxious look: "But now he..."

"Nothing but!"

Xiao Lin wanted to tell about Zheng Jing's bad state when she met Zheng Jing just now, but Ming interrupted her with a resolute tone.

"Since you choose to follow him, then trust him completely! He is not as weak as you think, and no one needs to worry."

Ming's words finally made Xiao Lin smile again.Sitting down on the ground, he took out his mobile phone and started playing: "So, what we have to do now is to wait here, right? Fortunately, I threw out that Long Ziming just now, and now we have to guard this place, Let no one enter this tower, and leave the rest to Zheng Jing."

"I'm afraid it's not as easy as you think." Ming looked at the large number of defenders approaching not far away, and said in a deep voice.And the worst thing is that they are bound to stand in the open by guarding here, while Long Ziming and the other two plane merchants are watching in the dark. This threat is more terrifying than tens of thousands of defenders combined.

On the other side, Xiao Meng, who had made it clear that he would not help any more, made another unexpected discovery.

"Ah... drink..." With little strength, he struggled to pull a scorched body out of a pile of ruins and rubble. Xiao Meng carefully laid the strong body on the ground, took off the The scorched and deformed sunglasses revealed fairly intact facial features.

Brother Heichao fell on the spot after rescuing Zheng Jing. It should be because of the battle between Xiao Lin and Long Ziming and the subsequent earthquake that threw him out by accident.But at this time, Brother Heichao is no longer the usual domineering image. The black suit that has not changed for thousands of years has completely turned to gray, and his body is also bloody. It is difficult to find another intact place except for the big bald head. After being dug out from the ruins by Xiao Meng, he was still lying on the ground motionless.

"Has the control program been taken back by the center? It seems that it is dead." Xiao Meng sighed. The power of the destructive light formed by the power of law just now was too terrifying, even Zheng Jing's immortal His body didn't stand upright. Although Brother Heichao's body was strong enough, he only stood in the white light for a second during the process of rescuing Zheng Jing, but he couldn't escape the fate of being destroyed.

This is nothing to be sad about. After all, Zheng Jing didn’t add even a little intelligence to him when he created Brother Heichao, because what Zheng Jing needs is not a partner, but an emotionless machine that can work hard for him and sacrifice for him Brother Heichao has just completed the mission he should do now. When this mission is over, as long as Zheng Jing is willing to spend money, he can create another assistant that is exactly the same.

but……

"Hey, Zheng Jing spent tens of thousands of energy on this body, so it's a pity to just throw it away?" Xiao Meng squatted on the spot, looking at the still intact corpse in front of her, lost in thought.

Just now he told Xiao Lin that he would stay out of the matter, but in fact he lied to Xiao Lin. To be precise, after Zheng Jing escaped from the white light with the help of his assistant just now, the center added an order to let the assistant attack and eliminate Zheng Jing According to Jing's order, from now on, as long as Xiao Meng meets Zheng Jing, he will attack Zheng Jing irresistibly.

As an assistant summoned by the plane merchant and created by the center, although Xiao Meng has a higher mind, he is essentially similar to a robot and must act according to certain principles.As an assistant, the first principle he must abide by is to unconditionally obey all the orders of the center, and only provide help to his master when he does not violate the orders of the center.

Is it really necessary to go this far?Is it really impossible for the old master's dream to come true?Xiao Meng raised his head and looked at the sky, he didn't know why his mind was controlled by a bunch of programs.At this moment, a strong sense of unwillingness suddenly emerged.

two years ago.For the same reason.When the old master Xiaoyaozi led all the elites of the sect to participate in the last plane mission, he was the only one left on the earth.From then on, Xiao Meng felt resentment towards the center that she should have obeyed unconditionally.

There must be another way!

Xiao Meng lowered her head slowly, and once again set her eyes on Brother Heichao's body.

……

"Ahem..." In the darkness, Zheng Jing woke up.

Turning his head and looking around, there was darkness everywhere, and he couldn't figure out what kind of environment he was in now. Zheng Jing felt as if a heavy object was pressing on his chest.But he couldn't move his body now, and he couldn't change anything.

The surrounding area was completely silent, and now Zheng Jing couldn't even figure out whether it was because the environment was too quiet or because his ears had been broken. He was lying quietly on the spot. At this moment, he had never felt that death was so close to him, and his body was still intact. With the support of the Philosopher's Stone, his vitality is gradually disappearing, and there are piercing pains from all the wounds on his body. The most terrifying thing is that he can't do anything now, and his fate is no longer in his own hands.

I do not know how long it has been.Zheng Jing suddenly felt that the heavy object on his chest was removed, and then a glare of light shot into his eyes.After squinting his eyes for a while to adapt, Nina's dirty face appeared in front of his eyes.

"Great, so you're all right." Seeing that Zheng Jing was still breathing, Nina wiped her sweat, and finally put her hanging heart back into her stomach.But Zheng Jing didn't appreciate it very much.

"Hey, which eye of yours looks like I'm fine?" Zheng Jing, who was still in the form of a human stick, complained speechlessly. His current image was stared at by Nina. I really feel ashamed to think about it. .

Reminded by Zheng Jingyi, Nina, who had just relaxed, became anxious again. She stared nervously at Zheng Jing, who was covered in blood, and asked, "What should I do now?"

"Get something out for me." Zheng Jing called out his universe bag, and Nina picked it up from the ground without his instructions, but Nina didn't know that what Zheng Jing wanted was in the universe bag. What kind of things did she have, she was anxious and opened the bag directly without asking, and poured out all the things inside.

In an instant, more than a dozen cubic meters of goods in the Qiankun bag buried Zheng Jing. When Nina dug him out again, Zheng Jing was about to cry. Did this little aunt sincerely want to kill herself?

Fortunately, although the Philosopher's Stone is not big, its color and light are very eye-catching. Zheng Jing spotted a thumb-sized Philosopher's Stone that fell on the ground at a glance, and motioned Nina to pick it up and hand it to him.

It took a lot of effort to get the sage's stone, and then Zheng Jing raised his head and swallowed the sage's stone whole.Not long after swallowing the Philosopher's Stone, the wounds on Zheng Jing's body healed quickly, and soon, his severed limbs also regrown, recovering intact.

However, this repair also exhausted the limited energy in the Philosopher's Stone. If Zheng Jing's body was fatally injured again, he would die like an ordinary person.

"Clang!" The first thing Zheng Jing did after regaining his body was to hold the Seven Star Sword in his hand, and to observe briefly with the flashlight in Nina's hand. The gap formed by the collapse of the building ruins is surrounded by tightly packed rubble and building ruins. It is almost impossible to get out from here through ordinary methods.

"Ding!" The Seven Star Sword slashed on the rock above his head, leaving only a shallow white mark, but it was Zheng Jing who slashed the sword and fell down with his legs limp.

Zheng Jing forgot that the seven-star sword, an evil weapon, consumes a lot of energy for the user every time he strikes it, and he also forgot that his body is no longer what it used to be.

"You'd better take a good rest. I've tried everything just now. If I could go out, I would have gone out by now." Nina gave Zheng Jing a blank look, and said helplessly.

Zheng Jing, however, refused to believe in evil, put his sword on the ground, forced his weak body to stand up again, and Nina hurried up to support his rickety body, but Zheng Jing's gaze was still fixed on the top of his head rocks.

"That..." Nina still wanted to comfort Zheng Jing, but Zheng Jing interrupted her just as she spoke.

"Give me two grenades, the power of the grenades should be able to blow up here."

"Are you crazy?!" Nina couldn't help opening her mouth wide when she saw Zheng Jing's eyes were red, staring at the top of his head as if possessed by a demon.

Zheng Jing's mind is really thinking about how to get out as soon as possible, Wen Yan said in an unquestionable tone: "Ming and Xiao Lin are still outside, they may encounter danger at any time, we must join them as soon as possible. Hurry up and do what I say! We both have physiques that have been modified by the terminal, so we won't be killed by two grenades."

Nina stood still and did not carry out Zheng Jing's order after all. After her small mouth squirmed a few times, finally, Nina gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and suddenly pushed Zheng Jing hard.

"Bang!" Zheng Jing's body slammed into a protruding building block, causing him to grin his teeth in pain. Zheng Jing looked at Nina, but he didn't expect her to react like this suddenly: "You..."

"Don't talk, just lie there and rest!" Nina seemed to muster up a lot of courage, pointing at Zheng Jing's astonished face, and shouted directly: "I know that if I say that, you will definitely Scold me, but I still want to say, Zheng Jing, your decision is wrong this time! If you continue like this, you will kill yourself and all of us!"

"Continue talking." Zheng Jing had a sullen face, and did not refute Nina's words.

Zheng Jing's calm reaction made Nina even more frightened. She looked at Zheng Jing timidly. Nina hesitated for a while before lowering her head and whispering, "I... I just don't think you need to be in such a hurry. Since you Knowing that Xiao Lin and the others are still outside, then you should trust them, they will definitely control the situation. And we are trapped here now without knowing what happened outside, look at your current state, so rashly Rushing out, are you going to die?"

Zheng Jing was silent and did not speak.

"Also, can you communicate with us more before what you want to do next time? If you hadn't chased Long Ziming too deeply by yourself, you wouldn't be where you are now. I don't think your This adventure is not right, chasing that guy is indeed very important, but you can ask all of us to chase it with you, even if it is an adventure, this risk should be shared by us."

"You are right, I will seriously consider your opinion." Zheng Jing said lightly, and then he suddenly smiled bitterly: "However, some things are not as simple as you think... No, to be exact I used to think of these things too simply, and I forgot that this is not a world where hard work can succeed."

Nina was stunned, and didn't want to understand what Zheng Jing said for a long time.

"Do you still remember what the terminal told you about the meaning of plane missions?"

"Remember, the mission of opening up the frontiers of the plane is set up to develop the resources of the plane world and at the same time test the abilities of the merchants in the plane. Isn't it right?"

Zheng Jing shook his head: "No, we were all deceived." (To be continued...)
