Unspeakable bubbles

The little girl touched her glass, which was full of milk, to his.

The two chatted happily, and the atmosphere at the table was harmonious.

However, Shura and Qianbian felt a chill run down their spines.

After the commander-in-chief and the young girl exchanged a fierce blow, his right hand remained hidden in his sleeve and was never taken out.

I thought that the two were evenly matched in that move, but now it seems that the commander-in-chief has obviously suffered a great loss!

…………………………………………………………………………

Over the next few days, the Snake King abandoned all organizational matters and personally took the little girl to enjoy the nearby mountains and rivers.

Everyone who came looking for the Snake King was stopped by Thousand Transformations and Asura. When questioned, their answers were all the same—the Commander-in-Chief was discussing philosophy with an extraordinary figure.

Such an extraordinary person, able to discuss philosophy with the Snake King?

Has Viper managed to curry favor with yet another super strong person?

Many people with ulterior motives stepped up their efforts, and after they managed to find out about the so-called "important" person, they all began to have doubts.

She's just a little girl, how could she be such a super strong person?

Is the Snake King just playing a trick, or... is there something else going on?

Section 377, Chapter 376: The Fifth Chair

"Your Excellency, this is the culmination of my years of hard work."

The Snake King led the little girl to his armory, where he proudly picked up a crystal gun with a futuristic look.

"This is a laser weapon that was acquired from Pruton Union. Even a grandmaster would be seriously injured if hit head-on!"

"Oh."

The little girl seemed uninterested. She casually asked, "Are there any weapons that can kill a super strong person in one hit?"

The Serpent King's lips twitched. He looked at the little girl helplessly: "There are some, like the Pluton Alliance's railgun. But those forbidden weapons capable of destroying cities and nations are simply not something the Serpent King is qualified to possess."

"Railgun..."

For some reason, an image of a mermaid casting a spell suddenly appeared in the little girl's mind.

"I think I vaguely remember it."

"Something this famous is so well-known that even if you've forgotten many things, you'll definitely remember it."

The Serpent King said in a tone that was hard to tell whether it was regret or relief: "Unfortunately, the orbital cannon of the Pluton Alliance self-destructed due to overload after severely injuring the Dead Sea Monarch."

"From now on, humanity has lost another trump card in dealing with chaos."

(Of course, at the same time, the sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of the super-strongest also finally disappeared.)

"Is that so?"

The little girl looked puzzled; she felt that things weren't as the old man described.

"Haha, this is the official news from the Pruton Union. I don't know what the twists and turns are, but the final result is that the beast has fallen into slumber once again, and the railgun is gone."

"...You seem a little happy."

Haha, really?

The old man smiled and changed the subject: "Look, the weapons I have here can arm the Viper's more than two thousand men to the teeth."

"Once Shura takes over my position, he will put this fully armed 'Viper Army' out in the open to let the little guys who are attached to the viper get rid of some bad ideas."

Looking at the excited old man, the little girl asked curiously, "Snake King, why are you so happy?"

"Hmm? My life's work of the past ten years is all here, of course I'm happy to see them."

"But whether it's weapons or the Viper Army of over two thousand men you mentioned."

"These things probably don't meet your standards, do they?"

The girl thought for a moment and said, "Although you're not particularly powerful, wiping out that 'Viper Army' you mentioned by yourself would be a piece of cake!"

"Why are you so proud of these, these things that aren't impressive at all?"

"Hehe, you've hit the nail on the head."

The Serpent King smiled: "Just as you said, I can indeed wipe out the entire Serpent Army by myself without much effort, but... the value of some things cannot be calculated in this way!"

The old man recalled, "The Viper was an organization I founded twelve years ago."

"In the beginning, Viper had nothing but a name. I recruited people one by one, leading those hooligans and scoundrels from collecting protection money, and all the way to the current size of Viper!"

"What's the point of this?"

The young girl looked at the old man with a puzzled expression: "You spent twelve years creating an organization that you could easily destroy yourself... Are you bored?"

"Hehe, you don't understand."

The Snake King said with a smile, "I have spent most of my life practicing martial arts. After becoming a super strong person and achieving my life's goal, I suddenly feel very empty."

The old man sighed: "Only then did I realize that I had lived most of my life in such a boring way, I was just a robot who only knew how to practice martial arts."

"I want to make a change! I want to do something fun in the little time I have left."

"So, you created the Viper?"

“That came later; at the beginning, I tried many other things.”

The old man counted on his fingers: "I've been a bodyguard, an assassin, run a snack shop, cut hair, and even carried bricks on a construction site."

"But, but all of this is too easy for a super strong person."

The Snake King shook his head: "Take moving bricks for example. If I, a super strong person, seriously move bricks, I can easily make the boss go bankrupt."

"It was then that I realized that if I wanted to find joy in life, I couldn't be trapped by my identity as a 'super strong person'."

The Snake King looked at the little girl: "Didn't you always feel that the size of the Viper was not worthy of a super strong person like me? That's because in the early stages of the Viper's development, I didn't reveal my identity as a super strong person at all."

The old man paused and then said, "Actually, in the beginning, my plan was to develop and expand this dark organization from the perspective of an ordinary person."

"You...failed?"

"Yes."

The Snake King said with a wry smile, "It failed. If I were really just an ordinary person, I would have been betrayed and killed by those traitors in the third year of the organization's founding."

"Hmm, your identity was exposed in the third year?"

"No, that's not it. At that time, there were only rumors that the leader of Viper was a grandmaster. His true identity was only revealed in the seventh year after Viper was founded."

The Snake King shrugged: "There was nothing I could do. At that time, my status as a grandmaster was no longer enough to control the situation."

"Many dark organizations have no shortage of grandmaster-level experts."

"The Viper organization is relatively new and lacks sufficient resources. If I don't reveal my identity soon, it will be devoured whole by those hungry wolves."

The little girl stroked her chin: "So, the next five years of your life must have been quite boring?"

"After all, even if you don't make a move, the title of a super strong person is enough to make other dark organizations tremble with fear."

"That's exactly what I was worried about at first, but..."

"As it turns out, I was overthinking it."

The little girl noticed that the old man's expression suddenly became extremely strange.

Amidst the resentment, there was also a hint of inexplicable pleasure.

"Ever since my identity as a super strong person was exposed, Viper has been suppressed by various forces, both openly and secretly."

"Over the past five years, the organization's development has been extremely difficult!"

"..."

"Snake King, you've really failed miserably."

The snake king felt embarrassed when the little girl looked at him with disdain.

"Ahem, don't underestimate those dark organizations. Even super strong individuals can't do whatever they want in the underworld!"

The Serpent King said seriously, "With me in charge, Viper can secure the fifth position among all the dark organizations."

"Once I'm gone..."

"They can't even make it into the top thirty!"

"The fifth seat?"

The little girl's braids trembled: "Among the four organizations ranked ahead of you, do they all have super strong experts in charge?"

Section 378, Chapter 377: Vision of the Future

"Black Star, Crimson, and Alpha—these three behemoths do indeed have close ties with super-powerful individuals."

"What's the other one?" the little girl asked curiously.

"besides……"

The Snake King's expression was somewhat grim: "There's also a dark organization called 'Libra,' but I haven't heard of it having any connection with super strong individuals."

"You really hate this organization called Libra?"

"Hmph, a bunch of money-grubbing bastards. They have no bottom line, no dignity, no soul, they're utterly rotten!"

The Serpent King seemed to be gritting his teeth: "If I'm gone in the future, Libra will definitely be the first to jump up and deal with the Viper."

"Oh, so it's a rival organization."

The little girl nodded, then asked, "Since Libra has no connection with super strong individuals, what is it about it that you are wary of?"

"..."

"A super strong person can disregard Libra, but the Commander-in-Chief of the Viper cannot."

The Serpent King's face showed deep exhaustion: "If we can't completely destroy such a troublesome organization as Libra, then Viper won't have a good life from now on."
