Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 390 Scheme?

"Ancestor, Ancestor, are you there?"

As Hu Ming emerged leisurely from the dense forest, the middle-aged man with glasses instantly broke out in a thick layer of sweat on his forehead.

However, no matter how he called out, the bronze fragment in his arms only continued to emit a strange, faint glow, completely ignoring him.

boom!
Hu Ming was too lazy to waste words with this guy, so he just shot him in the head.

As I recall, in the story, this guy was clearly Chinese, but he insisted on speaking English in a pretentious way.

They can speak English all they want, but their pronunciation is terrible, and they like to mix it with Chinese. It's just awful; just thinking about it makes me sick.

Why keep him around?
Are we just waiting for him to unleash his bizarre, nonsensical English and Chinese nonsense to disgust people?
Snapped.

With a single swift movement, he scooped up the bronze fragment in mid-air and held it in his hand.

"Living a long time makes you ruthless. You watch your descendants die right before your eyes without the slightest emotional reaction?"

As he weighed the bronze fragment in his hand, Hu Ming said jokingly.

It's as if this fragment of bronze in front of me isn't a lifeless inorganic object, but a person with consciousness!
Indeed, that is true!
As soon as Hu Ming finished speaking, a faint ripple emanated from the bronze fragment.

At the same time, an image of a middle-aged man with black hair and beard, dressed in government attire, shrunk several times in size, slowly appeared.

Why say that?

"You and I both know that my direct descendants are not these arrogant and conceited trash."

"They are just a group of ambitious people who have gathered together under my banner. Their respect for me is only superficial. In reality, they want to use me more."

"So, junior, I remember your name is Hu Ming, right? Hu Ming, so I should be thanking you for killing them."

"Middle-aged man," Wang Zanghai chuckled lightly, "no, he said calmly."

In essence, this can be considered a tacit understanding between two people who have never officially met.

The so-called Wang family is a bunch of daydreaming idiots!
They retrieved the bronze fragments that Wang Zanghai is currently hiding in from the collapsed underwater tomb.

However, they mostly used Wang Zanghai, their nominal ancestor.

Use Wang Zanghai to find the world's greatest secrets: immortality and the Bronze Gate!
They want to use this power to achieve immortality, just like the Zhang family did thousands of years ago, and to manipulate the course of the world!
Wang Zanghai already knew this. After Hu Ming conveyed the information that "the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West possesses perfect immortality" to the Wang family through various channels, Wang Zanghai understood.

Bringing this so-called Mr. Wang and his elite team here was simply a convenient way to achieve a win-win situation through cooperation.

After all, Wang Zanghai is currently in a state where he has absolutely no fighting ability.

To be more precise, he was a scholar during his lifetime and had no fighting ability whatsoever.

They're not even good enough to be considered a complete weakling.

As for his safety here...

"Don't look at me with such a scary look. Since I dared to risk my life to drive away wolves and devour tigers, I naturally have a backup plan. You can't destroy me, Hu Ming."

"I will come back to find you!"

Looking at Hu Ming's shifty eyes, Wang Zanghai couldn't help but chuckle.

His current form is a fragment of ancient bronze. Back then, after discovering the fatal flaw in the Corpse Beetle Pill, he began a new research into immortality.

The human skin that Hu Ming saw in the underwater tomb was indeed the remains of Wang Zanghai.

However, Wang Zanghai's desperate gamble before his death still failed.

Instead of transforming into a new body as desired, an ominous mutation occurred, and the physical body completely perished.

It was only thanks to the bronze fragments it obtained from entering the Bronze Gate in its early years that it preserved its consciousness and lingered on its last breath.

There is also a piece of this bronze fragment at the Wang family's headquarters. The Wang family's supercomputing center was built with the bronze fragment as its core.

After six hundred years of research, Wang Zanghai has discovered some of the extraordinary powers within them!
For example, transfer his consciousness to the bronze fragments of the Wang family thousands of miles away!
However.
"Oh? You're so sure I can't destroy you?"

"That's true, after all, this is our first meeting, and you don't know me well, but I can tell you this..."

"I'm not one for scheming, but once I set out a plan, it will be flawless!"

However, Hu Ming gave a strange smile.

"It's useless. The power of ancient bronze?! How could this be!!!"

"What exactly did you do? Hu Ming, tell me!!! Why did I suddenly lose my connection to the bronze fragments deep within the Wang family's territory!!!"

Before he could finish his slightly smug words, Wang Zanghai's expression suddenly changed, showing a hint of panic.

At that moment, Wang Zanghai truly felt the threat of death!
He lingered on for a full six hundred years, not so that he could die inexplicably here!
But unfortunately, he had absolutely no power to resist at that moment.

"you guess?"

Hu Ming laughed heartily, tossed the bronze fragment in his hand into the air, and at the same time swung his precious sword with great force!
Ancient bronze possesses many extraordinary powers that are difficult for ordinary people to imagine, but its texture can only be considered top-notch, far from being indestructible.

At the very least, Hu Ming put all his strength into it, and the precious sword was enough to cut the mere bronze fragment into pieces!
Hu Ming didn't like explaining anything to his enemies, especially those he was destined to die.

Half an hour ago, the mysterious Wang family's territory

"Damn it, this is a threat! A blatant threat!"

"Is that bastard Hu Ming even a man? He actually used my sister to threaten me?"

In a makeshift camp deep in the forest, a young man in combat gear, carrying a sniper rifle, roared angrily at the mercenary leader in front of him, his eyes red.

The young man's name was Jiang Zisuan, a rare expert in the field of international mercenaries, nicknamed Sasha.

That's right, he is Aning's younger brother!
Just now, the mercenary leader handed Jiang Zisuan, who had come from afar, a newly printed photo.

The background of the photo is an endless expanse of Gobi Desert, and the main subjects are Hu Ming and Aning. Hu Ming took the photo under a random excuse while traveling.
But in Jiang Zisuan's eyes, the sister's radiant smile in this photo was actually a silent threat from the scoundrel Hu Ming!
Not only that, he was also watching another group of armed men ahead, men sent by Hu Ming to keep an eye on them!

Instantly, Jiang Zisuan's temples bulged with veins, his teeth grinding together so hard they made a cracking sound, as if he wanted nothing more than to devour Hu Ming's flesh and drink his blood.

At this moment, he even hated Qiu Dekao, the boss who assigned Aning this mission.

It has to be said that Hu Ming doesn't usually like to use schemes, but when it comes to using his brain, he's a top-notch cunning old fox!
However, Jiang Zi never expected that Hu Ming would not normally make a move against a woman.

His sister, Aning, is actually very safe...

To put it bluntly, Jiang Zi was tricked by Hu Ming into coming here to work for free and risk his life.
