On the first floor of the ASK Building, the originally magnificent hotel lobby was now fortified with temporary fortifications. Sofas, marble tables, and sculptures were piled up to seal off the main entrance. A heavy machine gun was set up above, and a group of bodyguards affiliated with Activision stood ready to welcome the riot.
This is Zhongjing, not Rocky Mountain City. Once order breaks down, the Activision clan will undoubtedly be a soft persimmon to gangs of all sizes. The crew of "Hans and His Friends" are the best candidates, not to mention everyone knows it. , Activision Downtown President Christine is at ASK.
Of course, the value of Andrea Hathaway alone is enough to be "comparable" to the entire crew.
Behind the defensive line, the Mayfly members gathered together and chatted casually, mostly looking at the Activision bodyguards with disdain.
After experiencing battles with Dros and facing terrifying magic and spaceships, gang riots are nothing more than child's play for these surviving members of the Mayfly.
"Fuck, I heard that the sky is closed, we won't have to fight Xi'an, right?" A lean member of the Mayfly said casually, holding a cigarette in his mouth and wiping the egg-shaped weapon in his hand.
Someone next to him laughed and said, "You are so brave. Why, who was so scared that he cowered in the bunker last night and didn't dare to show his face?"
"Go away, I saved your life. The invisible gunman came over and I wiped his neck. You were still pouting there."
There was laughter all around.
"Okay, keep your voice down," a mayfly gunman with a gray beard and a scar on his face glanced at the Activision bodyguard, "Look, Activision's bodyguard is so scared, maybe things are very troublesome, don't be so damn happy. It’s too early.”
"They are afraid that Andy will be robbed by a gang," someone sneered, "Hey, Lao Sha, I remember you were there when the boss and Andy had a private chat yesterday. Tell me, did you hear anything?"
Everyone became excited after hearing this gossip.
"Ahem," the Mayfly member called Lao Sha coughed, lowered his head and said, "Mr. Li Liang."
The others hurriedly stood up straight, lowered their heads and shouted in confusion: "Mr. Li Liang."
"Yeah," Li Liang nodded and walked straight to the front door.
The Activision bodyguards gave way one after another, and a man who was obviously the captain quickly approached and bowed his head: "Mr. Li Liang, Miss Andrea hopes to have lunch with you."
Li Liang had no intention of stopping and said calmly: "Tell Christine that I can guarantee that ASK is safe and there is no need for lunch."
The man hesitated to speak, but in the end he just leaned forward again: "If necessary, you can give me orders at any time, airship or manpower, both are fine."
Li Liang nodded casually, walked through the defense line, came to the main entrance, and looked up.
The sky curtain simulates a sunny day, the "sunlight" is dazzling, the airship is still not open for use, and the sky is exceptionally "clean".
Looking around, the Joint Meeting Headquarters buildings and the North Cuiping Park on one side have been blocked by a tall green curtain. The "corpses" of armed drones and the wreckage of airships and spaceships in the square have also been cleaned up, leaving only the charred remains. , traces of potholes, and occasionally large blood stains can be seen, dried and black.
The wide ravine caused by the flying sword has not yet been filled, spreading like a terrible scar to the end of the street.
In the distance, the artificial lake glowed light blue, and several heavy mechanical boats painted by the Bureau of Order were carrying out salvage operations, lifting up a huge fragment of the spacecraft.
As far as the eye can see, there are not many people in the entire area, only motor vehicles scattered around and garbage all over the ground.
After experiencing the tragedy last night, no matter how stupid a person is, he would not come to the joint conference headquarters to ask for trouble at this time. However, Li Liang still noticed the surging undercurrent from the dead silence in front of him.
Gangs, big and small, have their own agendas, and they will never stay at home.
However.
Li Liang knew better that compared to the gang's movements, the owner of the sky above his head was more difficult to predict.
At this time.
A Bureau of Order patrol boat landed in front of the building.
Sorge got out of the airship, walked up the steps slowly, and said with a smile: "You're awake, Li Liang."
"Sorry, I overslept," Li Liang smiled, "The group."
The group's eyes trembled, staring at Li Liang, and stretched out their right hands: "Welcome back."
Li Liang firmly held the group's hand.
"We have just gathered the Whispering Organization and learned a piece of news," the group stood side by side with Li Liang, looking far away, "the gangs in China and Beijing are secretly uniting."
"I guessed it," Li Liang nodded and smiled, "When will the bosses have a meeting?"
"Tonight at ten o'clock, the 'Three Musketeers' restaurant."
"Okay, I'll join in the fun then," Li Liang looked at the joint meeting headquarters, "What kind of person are you, Li Ru?"
The group said in a low voice: "The chairman of the joint meeting rarely shows up. Li Chengshu treats her as a puppet of the powerful family, but I don't think she is that simple."
"He seems to be a smart man, that's good," Li Liang pointed to the sky, "Everyone has to work together for many things to come."
"Indeed," the group raised their heads, "Li Ru did not control the bunker, but he has already set his posture."
Another Order Bureau patrol boat slowly landed from far away.
Li Liang raised his eyebrows: "K is back, do you think he has any good news?"
The group smiled and said nothing.
After a moment, K quickly approached, wearing a crisp suit and still wearing sunglasses.
"K, you and the Activision bodyguard are wearing the same clothes," Li Liang smiled and gestured behind him with his thumb.
K was stunned for a moment, took off his sunglasses, spread his hands, and said seriously: "The difference lies in temperament."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled.
"How is it?" Li Liang suppressed his smile, "Is there any good news?"
K lit a cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke: "The joint meeting turned into a quarrel. Representatives from various departments, representatives from clans, representatives from the Human Destiny Alliance, Federation of Trade Unions, trade union representatives, chamber of commerce representatives, a lot of people, everyone can feel the disaster. When the end came, Li Ru only spared a few minutes to meet with me, and things turned out to be worse than previously expected."
"Continue," Li Liang rubbed the double ring with a calm expression.
"Not only is the sky in Zhongjing closed, but also in the other six cities. Even the ports, energy transmission and maintenance channels, and garbage discharge channels in the upper city are also closed. This means that no one can escape from the sky now," K said gloomily, "Li Ru Xi'an has been unable to be contacted, and she is worried that a larger-scale war will break out in the upper city."
"Dros?"
"Yes, in fact, Li Ru, Activision, SoftBank, and Putnam had the same judgment of the situation as you. They felt that Zhuos Yingling and the Marginal Business Department would have a civil war within the rules of the game. Both sides did not dare to alarm Xi'an, but they did not expect that , the fourth princess suddenly risked her life and made things like this."
Li Liang shook his head.
Zhuos Yingling really gave everyone a surprise. The worst thing was Activision. The president of his hometown in the lower city ran to the core area of the battlefield and almost died inexplicably.
"So, Li Ru wants to see you."
"I need to meet the president," Li Liang smiled, "How is the fourth princess?"
"I don't know, Tam and Dr. Sisson have been over there."
Li Liang thought for a while and said: "There are two things at the moment. The first is to figure out the subsequent movements of Xi'an and Zhuos. The second is what happened to Cain's group in Nirvana Tower. What exactly is the new world? Have they been destroyed by us?"
"One more thing, what happened to you in the bunker?" K frowned, "By the way, didn't you go find Saron just now?"
"No," Li Liang took a deep breath, "I still need to talk to Tam about my matter. Now I can't convince Saron."
The group asked, "Cain is awake?"
"Not yet," Li Liang pinched his brows, "K, go up now and move all the people who participated in the raid on the Nirvana Building to different rooms. When they wake up, I want to question them individually."
"Okay," K nodded, patted Sorge on the shoulder, and walked towards the main door.
After watching K disappear behind the defense line, Li Liang said softly: "The group, this afternoon, use your identity among the psychics to confirm where the surviving psychics are hiding."
"Get rid of it?"
"No, find them a safer place and raise them," Li Liang stroked the double-ring, "I'll find another ruler for them later."
Sorge nodded: "What about you?"
"I'm going to see Li Ru."
