Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 73 Praying to the Heaven
"Batch 67..."

September's nine ostentatious tails disappeared, and her murderous scarlet pupils turned back into amber. The boundless cold seemed to be drawing her life energy out of her body. She glanced at Mr. Mingyuan and found that he was also looking at her seriously, waiting for her answer.

She gritted her teeth and pulled herself together, "Where did you send the 67th batch of goods?"

"Although I usually don't remember the numbers of every batch of goods, but since this matter is so important to you..."

Bai Kou supported his chin with his left hand, pondered for a moment, and said, "I remember that there was indeed a batch of cargo that delivered a lucky fox and a disaster fox. This rare combination also left some impressions on me. If you want to know their whereabouts - they are different from those ordinary cargoes. They were assigned to an important project team. I like their abilities very much, and hope to conduct research based on this and create new armor."

"Give them back! Give them back!"

"Didn't they tell you? It's a fair deal."

Bai Kou said, "The company has always kept its promise and allowed the villages and forests where your people live to remain intact. In the years since then, the company has never interfered with the area where you live, and has indirectly protected the safety of your people from the Royal Hunting Court. Until the fall of the Royal Hunting Court, the company has never issued any commission involving you. In exchange, they should also keep their promise and cooperate with all research on the project-"

He heard the sound of the bulletproof glass crumbling.

The gathering disasters were trying to spread in through the gaps, but were once again blocked outside by the thin frost due to insufficient life energy.

Bai Kou and Jiu Yue looked at each other, their eyes flickering with confusion. "When faced with a natural disaster, will anyone blame God? No matter what kind of disaster God sends down, it is destiny, and you should just accept it silently. As a lucky fox, you should understand this best."

Drought, heavy rain, insect plague, famine.

Whenever there is a change in the natural world, disasters will spread to the world. It is precisely because of the yearning for happiness that people built temples and placed their hopes on illusory beliefs.

"No matter how you shout and cry, your voices cannot reach the heaven, but...the heaven can bring disasters, but also blessings."

His sharp eyes locked onto Jiu Yue. "Colluding with Wang Xu to rebel and assassinate company executives is a serious crime, but I can give you a chance to choose. You can meet them. In exchange, you have to cooperate with all the company's research until the day the project is completed. You have the blood of both Ruihu and Huohu, so don't waste it."

September did not respond.

She saw the frozen Liu out of the corner of her eye, and then looked at Duan Mingyuan.

Bai Kou noticed her look and said, "This is the inevitable outcome of defying destiny. Mr. Duan is different from you. He understands the consequences of doing this. If he angers heaven and a disaster strikes, not only you but everyone on this planet will be implicated, and he is destined to become—"

Bai Kou's voice suddenly stopped.

He looked at Duan Mingyuan's actions and frowned, "What are you doing?"

"I just did some research, this should be the emergency button to open all the compartments."

This should be done to rescue as much company property as possible when a dangerous incident occurs.

The incessant alarms stopped, and after pressing the button, every door in this "prison" was opened.

"Is this a childish temper tantrum? I think you are a reasonable person. In this case, we will have to re-evaluate you."

Bai Kou didn't like this silent resistance. After learning about Jiu Yue's life experience, he would never let this precious resource slip away from his hands. Now was an important moment in the negotiation, and he didn't want to be distracted by some boring trivial matters.

“It’s to show support.”

Duan Mingyuan has been waiting for an explanation.

He doesn't like being used, and somehow he becomes a pioneer in the rebellion against the company.

After understanding her reasons, a stone in my heart suddenly fell to the ground.

If Jiu Yue also held high the empty slogans of "survival of the fittest", "sacrifice", and "saving the world", he would probably be greatly disappointed. Duan Mingyuan turned to the man who called himself Tian and said, "Mr. Bai Kou, you also make mistakes sometimes. For example, if I wanted to attack you at this distance, you would be dead now."

"You know the consequences of doing this."

Bai Kou said coldly.

The company's assessment is never wrong. Perhaps Duan Mingyuan has some crazy ideas deep in his heart, but he is fundamentally different from the remnants of Wangxu.

Reason will become Duan Mingyuan's shackles.

With just a simple command, the company's flagship can easily wipe a city off the map forever.

The company doesn't even need to resort to violence. Everything on this planet is built on their support. All it needs is some small economic tricks to displace countless people overnight.

"Mr. Duan, all these sins will be blamed on you alone. No matter if it was ten, dozens, or even a hundred years ago, people will remember the consequences of a fool trying to rebel against God."

"That won't bother you."

Duan Mingyuan felt that Bai Kou's idea was completely off track and he misunderstood the reason why he had not taken action yet.

In other words, these aliens always have a strong self-confidence that they are in control of everything. Only in this way will they compare themselves to God.

"The reason why I didn't attack you is because I was taken care of by the company. It would be against human rights to stab you in the back and attack you."

Duan Mingyuan's gaze drifted out the window and fell on Xifeng.

This is the trump card that Bai Kou brought, the company's highest-level security personnel, and they are believed to have the ability to restrain everyone present.

Duan Mingyuan said, "You will not die before him. This is my promise to you."

He used the equipment in the central control room to ensure that his voice could be clearly transmitted to Xifeng who was still downstairs. "I will give him enough time to prepare."

Bai Kou repeatedly emphasized the importance of fairness.

Therefore, Duan Mingyuan decided to ensure that this was a fair and just battle, so that this cosmic-level strong man would not have to leave the world with the unwillingness and regret of being ambushed.

The temperature in the control room dropped sharply.

The next moment, the armor emitting light blue flames pushed Xifeng to the front of the control room.

What penetrated into the house was no longer snowflakes and frost, but a fierce snowstorm, and the entire factory was frozen by ice in an instant.

Winter is coming.

The light blue glow of the helmet locked Duan Mingyuan firmly in it. The shattered glass turned into blades and was blown towards Duan Mingyuan by the cold wind.

then,

Without the armor on his upper body, he fell forward.

The control room was so quiet that the only sound was the soft sound of metal touching the ground.
