In the hot room on the side of the sauna hall, Li Liang slowly drank milk tea and listened to the "negotiation" between K and Alsileng. It was said to be a negotiation, but it was more like Alsileng packing up the entire "Khan" and offering it to him. In exchange for his position in the "new era", it can be seen that this arrogant and seemingly reckless Mongolian Roshan is actually very careful and very good at judging the situation.
Perhaps the reason why China, who hates power, was able to secure his position as Wolf Lord was precisely because the second man, Alslen, was well versed in power games and managed Denali's political circles.
"Alsileng" means "lion" in Mongolian. Li Liang felt that this guy was more like a fat fox. On the surface, he was neither humble nor arrogant, showing his true character of a hero. In fact, he sold "Khan" completely, and he was sometimes cryptic. A few compliments to him, the flattering spring breeze turned into rain, moistening things silently.
But in the final analysis, China's refusal to "recruit" was just a matter of character. From the perspective of long-term interests, Alslen actually found a way out for the "Khan" gang.
When Cain ran against Alslen, Li Liang understood why Spades and Qinghetu could penetrate Denali, which had been run by "Khan" for many years, in one day. This was because the underground emperors of China and Beijing took turns under the eyes of the Joint Conference and the General Directorate of Order. Gangs of all sizes often fight each other and have rich experience in actual combat. However, the "Khan" family is the only one and rarely encounters situations where life is needed.
If Alslen had not "surrendered", K and Mizuno would probably have taken advantage of the situation and killed "Khan" in one fell swoop. After all, Denali's "gang environment" is relatively simple and not as complicated as Zhongjing.
After the secret conversation in the greenhouse, Li Liang woke up the sleeping Cain, and Alslen personally led the group to the suite on the top floor of "Giyaqi".
This room specially used to entertain dignitaries is extremely luxurious. The walls are covered with gold leaf and the furnishings are all antique works of art before the nuclear war.
The main living room is large enough for a pontoon boat to turn around, and the observation deck has a huge open-air infinity hot spring pool with a panoramic view of Denali's unique mountain city landscape.
After making some arrangements, Alslen left immediately. According to the secret agreement, in the middle of the night, he would cooperate with the Bureau of Order and lead the "wolf pack" to brazenly "rob the prison." Naturally, he was defeated in front of Xi'an's drone. After he succeeded, it was a matter of course for him to take over the "Khan".
Mizuno and Alslen went out to count their dead members and arrange to treat the injured. At the same time, Spade will also play the role of "killing all" in the second half of the night to prevent "Khan" from rescuing China.
In the end, only Li Liang, K and Cain were left in the room.
Alsileng's men brought supper, and Li Liang drank milk tea until he was full. He had no appetite, so he walked to the observation deck and overlooked Denali under the night.
A thousand years ago, "Denali" was a mountain located in south-central Alaska in the United States. Li Liang had heard of this highest peak in North America. However, now it seems that the nuclear war was between him and Twelve men at the pinnacle of power created a geological disaster that forever changed Denali.
At this moment, only a small part of Denali Mountain is left. The entire city is built on the mountain. It is low in the south and high in the north, like terraces, shrouded under the sky. The "Khan" headquarters "Giyaqi" is condescending, and its position is second only to The Denali branch of Putnam Laboratory and even the Bureau of Order are one floor below it.
Most of the buildings on the same floor as "Giyaqi" are villas and manors, with few lights. The further down you go, the more lights there are. The distant foothills are brightly lit, and the criss-crossing roads between the continuous high-rise buildings can be vaguely seen.
When the goblins invaded, Denali suffered similar losses to those in Zhongjing. There are still many areas with large lighting installations and are being rebuilt. The area located in the middle of the hillside should be Denali's commercial center. At this time, ground traffic is still busy. , there were also many airships taking off and landing in mid-air.
The most special thing is that the more than ten floors from the foot of the mountain to the middle are connected by winding roads, and the floors above are completely connected by large "elevators". One "elevator" can carry dozens of floating boats and motor vehicles at the same time. In addition, there are countless small "sightseeing" elevators for citizens to ride, which are tilted at an angle and emit various lights, like the shining "blood vessels" on the "skin" of Denali Mountain.
When Li Liang came to "Ji Yaqi" from the dock during the day, he noticed the large elevator. Unexpectedly, looking down from a high place, the visual experience was even more shocking. The constantly rising and falling elevators gave the whole city a sense of rhythm, like a tight machine.
At this time.
K came out of the room, lit a cigarette in the night breeze, supported the guardrail of the observation deck with one hand, and asked casually: "What should I do with Chi Na?"
Li Liang glanced back and saw Cain sitting cross-legged on the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window, eating a dessert.
"China is her friend. Forget it, when Alsileng successfully takes over, send China and his family to Zhongjing to enjoy their old age in peace."
K nodded indifferently, exhaled a wisp of smoke and said: "By the way, you have been having a meeting at the Gate of Spiritual Reason a few days ago, so I didn't bother you. In fact, besides Cain and China, I chose Denali as the first stop. There is another reason for friendship.”
"Natural Sect? Has the deputy secretary-general of the Alliance for Human Destiny been taken care of?" Li Liang was a little surprised.
"No, the girl Mizuno sent out to get close to Weiya spread the news that Weiya is very cautious and she still needs time." K turned and leaned against the fence. "I previously found out through an aide named Tao Chong that Weiya is a member of the Natural Sect. The priest in Zhongjing is the person in charge, um... A few days ago, Tao Chong contacted me and said that his daughter also applied for the civil service examination and hoped that I could pave the way for his daughter..."
"Then what?" Li Liang was very interested.
"He provided new information for this matter," K smiled. "He said that the core believers of the Natural Sect would inject an illegal hallucinogen during gatherings. This kind of hallucinogen is rare. However, the demand of the church is very high, and Via has been buying from Denali through a secret channel. Tao Chong happened to know a church member who was responsible for the reception in Dongjiang Port. I heard from that person that this channel originally started from the civil war in Zhuos. It stopped and the party stopped. However, a month ago, Via suddenly shipped a batch of goods from Beijing through this channel. The person didn’t know what the goods were or where they were shipped. He only knew that the weight was very heavy. big."
"That batch of weapons?" Li Liang asked in surprise.
"I think so too," K frowned. "We always thought that people from SoftBank were hoarding and transferring weapons through gangs. Now it seems that the Natural Sect is also involved."
"Go on," Li Liang felt that it was good news that the two things merged into one. The more actions the Natural Sect took, the easier it would be for mistakes to occur.
"I investigated the cargo ships entering and exiting Dongjiang Port during that period. There were two directions, one was Denali and the other was Mexico City. Via has always interacted with Denali. I think Denali is more likely. big."
"There are also hallucinogens," Li Liang nodded, "Find Alslen tomorrow, keep an eye on him, and find out Via's channels."
"Um."
K put out the cigarette butt and smiled again: "Tao Chong's daughter, Tao Yiran, is the girl with the fourth level of inspiration that Old Tang said."
"What a coincidence?" Li Liang raised his eyebrows, "I asked you to find someone to protect her before, but who did you send in the end?"
"ephemera."
Li Liang wondered: "Speaking of which, where is Mayfly's person now?"
"Western Mine," K lowered his gaze, "Cain sent all the Mayfly members to Li Anqiao for secret training."
Sudden.
Cain's voice came: "K, are you talking bad about me?"
K leaned against the guardrail and smiled without saying a word.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I guess that's right," Cain wandered closer and said pitifully to Li Liang, "Boss, you can't listen to slander."
Li Liang said angrily: "You are energetic again, right?"
"It's okay, it's okay," Cain walked between the two of them and leaned on the guardrail and said casually, "What are you talking about?"
"Tao Yiran," K patted the ash on his sleeve.
"Oh, that girl, don't worry, I've sent a veteran, there won't be any problems," Cain turned around and asked, "Can someone as inspired as her also be sent to the legion?"
"Well, psychics are a human army first, and magicians and sorcerers second." Li Liang thought for a moment, "Tao Yiran, just stay with the group. She and these new recruits will be led by the group themselves." .”
"This girl is so lucky." Cain stretched and tilted his head towards K. "Hey, can you have some discernment? It's so late, why are you still here?"
K slowly put on his sunglasses, then said "goodbye" and walked away at a speed like a race.
"..."
