If everything before was just speculation, then from the mouths of these two people, Jiang Yue can basically confirm that the weird tree controls so many agents, and indeed there is a corresponding price.
Judging from the things these two people said, one thing is for sure, the Weird Tree is really anxious.
The portraits of Tong Jiangnan were, to put it mildly, a reward order.
This shows that Jiang Yue's recent series of actions have made the Weird Tree unbearable, and even caused his mentality to explode.
Otherwise, Weird Tree would never have summoned all its agents and spent all its manpower on this.
Of course, this also indirectly shows that the situation in Star City has now completely heated up. Just like boiling water, bubbles have begun to bubble in the pot and will soon enter a boiling state.
On the other side of the Weird Tree, they have reached the point of using whatever means necessary.
Next, it is necessary to remind those who are included in the bounty portraits.
Jiang Yue is not afraid, but if people like the Lord Governor and Luo Teng are targeted by these agents, the security forces around them may be taken advantage of.
When the situation has developed to this point, Jiang Yue will not be surprised by any move made by the other party.
After all, if anything happens to any of the people on the bounty list, it will have a huge impact on the current situation of Star City.
The opponent's move was indeed very targeted.
The Weird Tree has already taken action, and it depends on how Jiang Yue responds.
Lao Xia and A Gui peeked at Jiang Yue's expression from the corner of their eyes from time to time. My heart was agitated and full of worry.
What they should have said and what they should not have said have all been confessed.
If Jiang Yue directly killed people and silenced them, they would have nothing to do.
The two of them were like fish on a chopping board, with no ability to resist at all.
Fortunately, although Jiang Yue's expression was solemn, he did not seem to show any strong intention to kill anyone.
The two of them wanted to take the initiative to break the deadlock, but they were afraid that if they spoke at this time, Jiang Yue would be angered. Originally, the other party had no intention of killing, but he got into trouble because he didn't say anything.
Jiang Yue suddenly looked at the two of them.
Both of them trembled in their hearts, knowing that the moment to decide their fate had come, and their fate was about to be pronounced.
Lao Xia swallowed hard and racked his brains trying to find a reason for the other party not to kill them. However, Lao Xia, who was usually very eloquent, found that he had never been so at a loss for words as he was now, and his mind was full of words. Come up with something persuasive.
Instead, it was A Gui who suddenly shouted: "Mr. Jiang, can you, I mean, can you give me a chance to change my ways?"
Change your ways?
Jiang Yue suddenly laughed, but the reaction on his face was not very intense. Instead, he looked quite amused.
He looked Agui up and down.
"Do you think you still have the capital to correct your evil ways? What can you do to correct your evil ways? The mark that the strange tree has planted on you, let alone reforming your evil ways, will definitely lead to a dead end if you want to escape from Star City. Am I right?"
A Gui nodded with difficulty, his mind quickly flashing back to the tragic death of Jiao Zhigang and three others in Wumei Community.
He had no doubt that if they dared to betray the Weird Tree, they would end up worse than Jiao Zhigang and the others.
After all, Jiao Zhigang and the others were just passive and slow in their work. To put it bluntly, they were just lazy and fishing.
Even those who were passive and sabotaged died so miserably, so the nature of the traitor must be many times more serious. You can think of it with your toes, and that outcome is definitely not what they want to try.
Therefore, Jiang Yue is absolutely right when he says that they are not qualified to correct their evil ways.
"Mr. Jiang, you are right. If the Weird Tree knows that we betrayed it, we will definitely be dead."
Lao Xia suddenly said, "But what if we don't let it know?"
"Oh? Do you think your wisdom can compete with the strange tree?"
Lao Xia said seriously: "If A Gui and I fight it alone, we will definitely not be able to fight it, and there will be no hope of winning. But... A Gui and I are just small characters. We usually don't have many opportunities to fight against Weird." The tree deals with it head-on. We are not top agents, and its main concern is not with us. With hundreds of agents, I don’t believe there aren’t other people with different intentions here!”
To say that the Weird Tree's control over its agents is indeed cruel. But when it comes to all-round monitoring, Jiang Yue naturally doesn't believe it.
If that were the case, Chen Ginkgo wouldn't be alive now.
"Mr. Jiang, Agui and I are both small roles. Killing us two is as easy as crushing two ants. However, if Mr. Jiang is willing to use the two of us, the contribution we can make will definitely be greater than Jiang It would be cheaper for you, sir, to kill us."
"Contribution? What do you think you can contribute?"
"We can work as an undercover agent for Mr. Jiang. The people at the Weird Tree definitely don't know that we have anything to do with Mr. Jiang, so we can definitely get some useful information, which will definitely be helpful to Mr. Jiang."
"Maybe we can't access the core secrets, but we can definitely get some useful information from Tang Pan. Including Tong Jiangnan, we may also be able to find out some trends. If they do something that is not good for Mr. Jiang Action, can we inform you in advance?"
"Haha, I have to say that you are very thoughtful. But how do I know that this is not nonsense driven by your desire to survive?"
Lao Xia hurriedly said: "Mr. Jiang, people don't tell secrets. When you were fighting with us just now, I felt what kind of method you used in my body. This method is different from Master Shuzu's, but I firmly believe that, You must have done something in my body. I don’t have any other abilities, but I still have this intuition. Since Mr. Jiang has done something in my body, he must have a way to subdue us."
When A Gui heard this, his expression changed slightly. He also felt what Lao Xia said just now. It's just that he didn't think about it in that direction at all.
So, this elder Jiang Yue's methods are much stronger than imagined. Without making a move, he actually moved his hands and feet inside their bodies.
Seeing Jiang Yue smiling and saying nothing, Lao Xia and A Gui looked at each other, becoming more and more convinced that Lao Xia's judgment was correct.
"Mr. Jiang, in fact, we also know that the Weird Tree is an alien species and is full of hatred for us humans. Its plan is based on destroying Star City and wiping out human beings. If we hadn't gone astray from the beginning, and later on We have no choice. We will never follow a path until it ends. After all, once it achieves its plan, we people will be very embarrassed even if we are alive."
Lao Xia's tone this time seemed sincere, and his eyes also conveyed sincerity: "I know Mr. Jiang will think that bastards like us have no credibility in our dying words. But these are really what we are saying. . If we have a choice, we are really unwilling to go against the entire human civilization. We also know that if human beings really perish, we people will never end well."
Whether it is self-awareness or dying words, Lao Xia's words at least have some sincerity.
"So, Mr. Jiang, if we are destined to die in the end, between you and the Weird Tree, I still hope that you will be the one who has the last laugh."
To say that he has a sharp tongue, in the final analysis, he is still trying to survive.
In this kind of apocalypse, human life is like a piece of grass, and countless people die every day like a lamp going out.
Lao Xia and A Gui have also seen too many deaths.
So they know better that in troubled times, human life is worthless.
Living, even living in a humble way, speaking soft words is not a shameful thing.
Although these words were obviously meant to please, Lao Xia believed that he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
They do know that once the Weird Tree achieves its goal, it is definitely a big question mark whether they can still live happily.
The most important thing is that if the Weird Tree's plan is followed, the Weird Tree will eventually rule the entire Star City, and most of the humans in Star City will be destroyed.
So even if these agents are still alive and the Weird Tree doesn't attack them, what's the point of living like that?
Things harm their own kind.
If there are only a few hundred agents left in human beings, what's the point of fulfilling what the Strange Tree promised them?
There is no certain base of similar species, the extraordinary abilities promised by the strange tree, inexhaustible resources, and a lifespan that ordinary people cannot imagine...
Even if all these are realized, who will they share this so-called success with?
It is said that wealth returns to its hometown.
Suppose someone works hard for half his life and eventually becomes rich and powerful, but after returning to his hometown, he finds that none of his old friends are left. The village is still there, but the people in it are gone.
Who can show this wealth?
By the same token, if all the other humans in Star City died, with just a few hundred of them, the so-called success would lose any meaning.
To put it bluntly, take Lao Xia as an example. Even if he acquires powerful extraordinary abilities and has endless material resources, how many women are there among these hundreds of agents? How many young and beautiful ones are there?
Those at the level of Chen Ginkgo are even rarer.
Therefore, once the Weird Tree takes control of Star City and there are only a few hundred humans left in Star City, everything is destined to be a mirror image.
Maybe Agui didn't expect it to be so deep, but Lao Xia had actually been thinking about these things.
So there is indeed not much adulteration in what he just said.
If he had to choose between Jiang Yue and the Weird Tree, Lao Xia would definitely choose Jiang Yue.
He also believes that if this choice is given to most agents, if it is the current situation, he believes that most other people will make the same choice.
This is a rational choice that any rational human being will inevitably make.
Only a few people who are born with antisocial tendencies and only see killing, destruction, and all kinds of perverted ideas will not care at all.
Any agent who still has some sense actually understands a truth deep down in his heart. Following the strange tree is a path of no return after all.
Unless, after the Weird Tree completes its plan, it will let them leave Star City.
But is all this realistic?
With the strange tree's desire for control, it will never let these agents leave in vain.
"Mr. Jiang, these are the words of our two brothers from the bottom of their hearts. If you don't think it is credible, small characters like us, since we fall into the hands of Mr. Jiang, we will not die unjustly." Lao Xia said in a low tone, as if I have already Give in, let him be beaten and killed, and never resist.
Whether or not to kill these two people is indeed not a particularly important matter to Jiang Yue.
Anyway, it was not the first time that Jiang Yue showed mercy to the strange tree.
Since Chen Yingxing was spared last time, Jiang Yue didn't think there was anything wrong with letting Lao Xia and A Gui go.
"Lao Xia, you are a smart person. When dealing with smart people, you don't need to beat around the bush. If you want to live, I can consider giving you a chance."
"Mr. Jiang, don't worry, as long as you give us a chance, we brothers swear that we will repay you ten times a hundred times."
"I don't need ten times or a hundred times." Jiang Yuedan shook his head, "I only need information, useful information, important information that can destroy the weird tree."
Lao Xia and A Gui looked at each other and thought that Mr. Jiang really dared to speak.
Destroy the strange tree?
Although they are now Jiang Yue's prisoners and admit that Jiang Yue is powerful, they are a bit skeptical if Jiang Yue can destroy the strange tree.
After being controlled by the Weird Tree for such a long time and undergoing various brainwashings, Lao Xia and A Gui, as well as all other agents, have subconsciously formed a concept in their hearts, that is - the Weird Tree is invincible. It is an existence countless times more powerful than human beings, like a god. It is a powerful existence that has lived from ancient mythological times to the present.
How easy is it for humans to eliminate this god-like existence?
Jiang Yue's face darkened: "What? You kept saying you were going to be an undercover agent before, but now you want to go back on your word before you even turn around?"
"No, no, no, Mr. Jiang, we never mean this. We will do our best to collect the intelligence we have. But..."
"But what?"
"I must remind Mr. Jiang that although we very much hope that Mr. Jiang can defeat the strange tree, it is after all a powerful creature that has existed since ancient mythological times. Perhaps it itself is a god from ancient times. With such an existence, human beings really Can it be eliminated?" Lao Xia's tone was obviously pessimistic.
"Haha, it seems that the strange tree has successfully brainwashed you. In your perception, it is an invincible god?"
"But it is really powerful, otherwise how could it have survived from ancient times to now?"
"Then have you ever thought about it, if it is really so powerful and invincible, why has it been so sneaky and hiding from ancient times to the present? Since it is as powerful as a god, why does it still control you humans? Agent? If it is really indestructible, why don't you dare to come out and fight? Instead, you have so-called top agents who keep coming to die?" Jiang Yuedan asked.
