Chapter 35: Testing
What Fang Lin is betting on at this moment, or his biggest trump card at the moment, is Lei Zhe's cautious character who is unwilling to risk his own life! A most important bet! A bet that is enough to change the entire situation, even a bet of life and death!
------Lei Zhe's reputation is too great. What he really has to worry about now is not just the people on Fang Lin's side. He really has to be careful about facing the backlash from his own men! When you remember that your strength is incomplete!
You must know that people like Silver Wolf Richard were obviously forced to come here because of Lei Zhe's terrifying reputation, and temporarily acted as his subordinates. They used their lives to charge into the battle and decisively fight powerful opponents who were not necessarily targeted at Lei Zhe. The only reason for the resentment of Lei Zhe is that they themselves don’t believe it, and the people Lei Zhe really trusts, or can trust, are actually just the two followers around him. As the saying goes, it is difficult to survive alone, even if he is as strong as Lei Zhe. No exceptions.
Originally, Lei Zhe had two powerful and ferocious follower partners, Inza and Jushi. Even if he was injured, he could use the strength of these two followers to scare the rest of the reincarnation veterans, but now he is his right-hand man. Two of his followers have already been cut off, and there are inevitably more and bigger worries!
Fang Lin was so good at observing people's faces. His previous tough attitude was enough. He should not go too far and should not provoke the powerful enemy in front of him. This was the time to give the opponent a step to step down. He immediately said:
"Actually, we don't want to be hostile to Lord Thunderer. In the final analysis, everyone here is just trying to save their lives. Let's do this. To show our sincerity, we can return this Mr. Giant Stone to you."
This unexpected change of topic immediately eased the stalemate. Lei Zhe could no longer ignore the importance of Jushi's subordinate - even though he had completely lost the ability to fight at this time - -- said coldly:
"Well, send him here! I can spare you this time!"
Fang Lin smiled and said:
"Of course it's not impossible to let Mr. Giant Rock pass! This is our sincerity. However, I have a small request. This is the sincerity of Mr. Thunder! Okay?"
Lei Zheruo's metallic-cold silver-white pupils stared at Fang Lin and said coldly:
"I hate being threatened! There is only one fate for those who have ever threatened me, death!"
Fang Lin coughed and wiped the blood that gurgled from his mouth, and said with a smile:
"How can this be considered a threat? This is a sincere expression of mutual sincerity. Sir, you have a broad mind. Of course you won't have the patience to listen to a sincere request, right?"
Lei Zhe held the power tightly, and the anger in his heart was really raging. Every word Fang Lin said struck a chord with him - how could he, a man who values appearance so much, be willing to do something that would jeopardize his calmness and dignity in front of people like Yin Lang! No matter how unwilling I was, I could only say against my will:
"Even if it's for the giant stone, you say!" I have to say that this thunderer is not a simple person. His extremely simple words have successfully moved people's hearts. The confused and distorted giant stone over there listened. Lei Zhe's distorted face seemed to be relieved a little...
"I don't want points. I don't want potential points either." Fang Lin said calmly: "Of course I won't be greedy enough to covet your expensive equipment. I'm very sincere, I just want some sincerity to save my life!"
Fang Lin's previous words were as light as spring water, closely linked to the word "sincerity"! But the determination behind the words was as strong as iron! No doubt!
"I want the restorative food on you... food that can be used in non-combat situations to quickly restore mental power!"
Lei Zhe said calmly:
"I don't have this."
Fang Lin said word for word:
"I am really sincere in discussing this matter with Mr. Lei Zhe. I hope you will also show some sincerity! In one sentence. If this loyal follower, Mr. Dashi, can survive, five yuan can be restored quickly. Spiritual food! ”
"There are some things I didn't want to say face to face. You must already hate me to the bone at this moment. Why are you willing to let me go now? This is really worth pondering! I don't think you, Mr. Lei Zhe, are willing to let me go now. You may be a broad-minded person. The only explanation is that your own mental energy is currently quite consumed, and your extremely powerful combat power is no longer available at this moment. It’s all working, right? It’s just that you have an extremely rare recovery food (drug) that can quickly restore your mental power! But this kind of drug shouldn’t be used in combat, so you just need to make an agreement. Turn around, find a safe place, and take it immediately. Then turn around in about ten minutes and kill us at will!"
(Note: The combat status in this world is determined by the nightmare marks on the body. The conditions to be met are: if a creature hostile to you appears within one kilometer nearby, it can be deemed to have entered a combat status.
Of course, this kind of hostile creature must first know your existence. For example, if there is a Tyrannosaurus rex 900 meters away, it will definitely be hostile to the forest within sight. But this Tyrannosaurus rex actually didn't even know Fang Lin existed. There is no way to initiate hostility, and naturally there will be no so-called combat state. )
The Thunderer's body trembled invisibly. He even had a fear that he dared not look Fang Lin in the face...! Even a rare fear...! This was the first time he met such a guy who could almost see through people's hearts!
He continued to deny.
"I don't have it."
"You must have it, I'm sure! So, four pieces? Isn't my sincerity enough?" Fang Lin said tentatively in a mercenary tone: "I only need four pieces of this food (drug) that can quickly restore mental strength. As long as I have four pieces, I can exchange for your loyal subordinate! If it doesn't work, you are too sincere, and you can only wait for your subordinates to collect the body!"
The Thunderer spoke very cautiously, and he tried to adjust his tone to a stereotyped and flat level:
"I only have three pieces, only three pieces!"
"Three pieces are not bad." Fang Lin laughed happily, and his tone was deliberately dragged out to give people the illusion that he would agree immediately. But suddenly his face turned serious and he said seriously:
"Can I understand it this way? You will give up the life of your most capable follower, Mr. Jushi, for just a few pieces of food (medicine)? If this matter is spread by the people present, I am afraid that even the arrogant and powerful Lord Lei Zhe will find it difficult to find people to work for you!"
The hopeful eyes of the Jushi over there dimmed again, replaced by a desperate silence!
Fang Lin's words were not to be underestimated. In just a few words, he basically cut off the retreat of Lei Zhe, and even the room for choice!
Lei Zhe slowed down his speech again and said unusually slowly:
"I don't have it, I don't have it. The conditions you proposed are too harsh. I have tried my best. What can I do?"
"You have it. And the exact number is... 4 pieces." Fang Lin now smiled like a cunning fox, and a fox that just stole a hen! He squatted down and patted the head of the "human stick" giant stone with satisfaction: "My previous words were actually testing, and the real answer was told to me by him."
"You are talking nonsense! I didn't say anything! I didn't say anything!" The giant stone's forehead was sweating and he roared: "You slandered me. You damn bastard!"
Fang Lin said calmly:
"You didn't say it, but your body's reaction faithfully betrayed you."
"When I said I would give you food (drugs) that can quickly restore your mental strength in exchange for your life. Your face clearly showed an ecstatic look------This is also No wonder, a person who thought he was doomed to die suddenly had a chance to survive, and this chance was very big. No matter how well he concealed it, some clues would be revealed! "
"So, my inquiry seemed to be addressed to the Thunderer... Lord, but in fact, it was really testing your reaction! You used body language to perfectly tell me that the Thunderer has this very rare and precious food (medicine). Right, Mr. loyal follower!"
The stone's face was already unusually pale due to excessive blood loss, and it was even uglier at this time, like a dead person's face! He never thought that although he didn't say a word and his face was covered with blood, the damn guy in front of him was actually focused on him! His questions seemed to be directed at the Thunderer! In fact, every question was deeply aimed at himself! !
