Chapter 715: Rigidity bends easily (Part Two)
“No need to brainwash me, that’s your business. All I know is that as long as I am alive, any foreigner who dares to trespass the country will be executed from afar!” Xu Cheng said.
“With your strength, you can completely join us in this game brought about by capitalism, and we could offer you a council member position.”
Xu Cheng laughed out loud. “Well then, don’t you guys want to extend your lifespan? Join me in the Deviant Corp and I can also give you a council member position, it’ll offer you capital and money that you can’t take with you after death. I can extend your lives, so why not come back and serve the country?”
The old man looked at Xu Cheng and said, “Your Deviant Corp is not powerful enough, and with your financial resources, if you were to merge into the Capital Society, you probably won’t even be a council member. It’s scale is nothing compared to the Capital Society, and you’re just playing a game, so let’s cut the cr*p. If you can extend our lives, we could give you everything you want except for what would harm our interest.”
Xu Cheng: “If I say that you’re not allowed to invade Huaxia, can you do it?”
The old man: “No, because we don’t have a lot of say in this, and global control is the purpose of the Capital Society. No one has been able to change it for centuries, and whoever wants to leave the game dies! Including that, if we were to join the Deviant Corp, we will also be killed.”
Xu Cheng: “Who can kill you?”
“There are many things that you don’t understand, and you don’t have to know,” The old man said.
Xu Cheng said, “You’ve told me so much, aren’t you afraid that revealing these secrets would count as treason to your organization?”
“Not really,” said the old man confidently. “Because you won’t take the secret out, you are just a dead man tonight.”
After saying that, the old man floated over in the dim operating room, and when he tugged Xu Cheng’s arm with one hand, trying to restrain him, Xu Cheng grabbed his wrist and swung him flying towards the door.
The old silver haired man slammed on the door hard, and he was a little surprised that Xu Cheng’s strength was so strong!
“Didn’t expect that, did you?” Xu Cheng said, “This is the strength of a Deviant, but you should be glad that I am injured now, or else that blow just now would be enough to smash you into a pulp of flesh.”
“There are no absolutes in this world.” The old man stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. “Rigidity bents easily.”
He said that as he moved closer, and his fingers wrapped around Xu Cheng’s arm as he slapped his palm onto Xu Cheng’s chest. It seemed like he didn’t use any power, but a strong internal force shook Xu Cheng’s internal organs.
Xu Cheng’s body flew back and crashed into the operating table, flipping all the surrounding lamps into the ground. His heart was already injured from the blood loss and that just now almost killed him.
He spurted out a mouthful of blood as he kicked at an equipment and smashed it into the old man.
The old man struck the flying machine with both palms, sending it flying away.
Xu Cheng leapt from the window in a smooth motion and ran towards the distant forest to escape.
“Where do you think you can escape to!” The old man shouted in a low voice as he then jumped on the tops of the forest trees like a dragonfly on water as he chased after Xu Cheng.
