On the outskirts of Bandar Seri Begawan, a convoy of four black SUVs drove to the airport in the east of the city. Seated in the car were Gordon Gardner, the God-favored man who was about to ascend the throne in more than ten hours, and Some of his minions and reserve minions.
Three hours ago, the battle in Kuala Lumpur ended. Crazy Lord and Elliot escorted Joseph to Bandar Seri Begawan for a business trip. They calculated that the time should be almost here.
"Sir, why do you call yourself a loser? After all, Yun Ming is already under our control." There were only Jin and Gordon in the first car, and there were no outsiders present, so Jin said his doubts. .
In the back seat, Gordon was sleeping with his eyes closed: "The reason why Yun Ming fell into our hands was simply because of the unequal intelligence. He thought that I had no chance to convey information to the outside world under his nose, but he didn't know that I still had it. I have the power of "whispering" and can contact you at any time to keep track of the situation."
"So he didn't even realize that I was stalling for time by answering those questions on the boat. As long as the fishing boats enter your range of capabilities, "Jiuji Tianya" will pull them into our encirclement with people and boats."
"Frankly speaking, this is not a fair duel. The shackles of resources are Yun Ming's biggest disadvantage. Even so, he has also forced me into a very dangerous situation. It is unimaginable that I have a huge advantage and have to rely on self-exposure. I used trump cards to delay time. From this point of view, my defeat was a disastrous one."
"It is true that I was found out by him because I was not fully prepared. For example, I shouldn't have asked you to prepare the excuse that I am your brother...but forget it, if you lose, you lose. There is no use in talking more."
Jin glanced at the rearview mirror. Gordon's expression in the mirror was indifferent, and his mood did not seem to be affected by the failure of the fight. Jin then asked cautiously: "But sir, what should we do with Yun Ming? Will it cause trouble?"
"You are right to have such concerns." Gordon still maintained the demeanor of a veteran cadre and spoke slowly and calmly: "But the prerequisite for raising tigers is that they are well fed. Tigers that grow up eating grass are not a cause for concern."
"Since the number of places in the candidate game will not be reduced due to the absence of players, then why don't we keep Yun Ming in captivity? An opponent who knows the basics is certainly better than an opponent who knows nothing. Yun Ming, who lives under our surveillance, is growing Those who can’t get up will never be able to stop the Crazy Lord.”
"I understand, my lord, I have foresight."
"There are times when mistakes are made. I really didn't expect that Zhong Yi would still show up alive. He was really lucky."
Jin agreed: "It's a pity. According to your plan, he and Maehara Douyang and others stayed in the same hotel, which was very likely to cause a fight. This is the first ambush."
"After the first ambush failed, you arranged a second one. It was no coincidence that Sam Chapman's amphibious landing craft encountered Zhong Yi's fishing boat in the nameless bay. Unfortunately, Sam did not order the guards to attack him. Zhong Yi Just let go.”
Gordon finished closing his eyes to rest. He had just completed another "sand table" deduction in his chest and abdomen: "Well, if I get anything from this confrontation with Yun Ming, it is that I know." "It's not omnipotent. There will always be miscalculations."
"Zhong Yi is what I wanted to get rid of from the beginning. Among Yun Ming's small gang, he is the strongest. If he is eliminated, Yun Ming and Pu Che Shi can only passively accept my conditions. How can they Room for bargaining.”
"That's all, what you plan for is what God decides. There's no point in attacking Zhong Yi now. Luck won't always be with him anyway. I'll make other plans later."
At this time, Gordon still didn't realize that his black scheme against Zhong Yi was destined to fail, because the goddess of luck was really standing behind Zhong Yi all the time.
According to the book, Zhong Yi's "Wushuang" power is actually a very high-level ability, but no "Wushuang" user has yet developed its potential.
The function of "Unparalleled" is to greatly improve the attributes of the ability user. If you think about it carefully, you can find...this attribute can do a lot.
The various attributes we can think of include, in addition to simple strength and speed, endurance, resistance to blows, resistance to poison, skin hardening, bone density... In fact, it also includes luck.
When Gordon artificially created a coincidence to deal with Zhong Yi, the latter's superpower spontaneously protected the master, and the way of expression was to improve Zhong Yi's luck. So the reason why Gordon didn't plot to kill Zhong Yi was really not that he didn't plan well, it was simply that the target was blessed by the heavenly official.
In the same way, on the night of the Longjun coup, among the five secret army members who invaded the BTS headquarters, only Jiang Yao escaped unscathed. Is it really because of her superior strength?
Of course, if Gordon realizes that "Wushuang" users have luck, all he needs to do is create a "theoretically 100% guaranteed death" situation. Zhong Yi, who is at the ghost level, cannot rely on luck to make a comeback.
"Palmer's side has almost taken care of it. He has integrated the federal powerful forces in Baoxiang County and Wandao County. It will not have any impact on your succession." Jin thought for a moment: "Sir, is it? Do you really plan to hand over the position of Governor of Baoxiang County to him?"
Gordon laughed freely: "Why not? Palmer was already the governor of Ten Thousand Islands County before he decided to cooperate with me. Apart from Baoxiang County, what else can satisfy him?"
"But... Longjun's example is right in front of us."
"No, Palmer is far worse than Qian Jin. He does not have decent military power at hand. After the two counties merge, it is impossible to give him military power. Of course, even if I gave it to him, he would not dare to ask for it."
"That means Palmer will get power in Southeast Asia."
"Well, this is his only requirement for equal cooperation with me. Although I arranged countless plans, spent a lot of effort, and finally usurped the position of Southeast Asian lord, in the final analysis, my goal is not to be a lord, but to win Victory in the Candidate Game. The two counties in Southeast Asia are just my springboard. It is better to have a foundation than to slowly accumulate it by myself. After I knock the bones out of Southeast Asia and absorb the marrow, Palmer can take it if he wants. "
"You are referring to the supernatural beings and divine mist resources in Southeast Asia, right?"
"That's right, there is no hope for the No. 5 Well in Manila. The Renaissance Organization should have already prepared to recover it." Gordon clasped his fingers, rested his elbows on his knees, rested his chin on his hands, and hunched over in thought: "No more than five The No. 1 well has a short lifespan and has degraded into a barren Shenwu mine. It has no strategic value. It would be better if the renaissance organization takes over. It can also save defense personnel and funds. "
"I asked Reginald to search Joseph's mansion. I have Joseph's previous inventory of the divine mist potion, plus the divine mist potion produced by another Well No. 30 in Singapore. That's enough. What's more, Singapore Thirty Fortress No. 2 is garrisoned by people from the Renaissance Organization, and it’s a good deal.”
"My lord, you are so clever and clever, and you can manipulate all parties in the palm of your hand. I believe that no other contestant can reach this point." Jin's words may sound flattering, but objectively speaking, they are the truth.
Although he is calm on the surface, Gordon is still quite happy in his heart: "Well, the only candidate I can confirm now is Yun Ming. Although he is under control, I am always a little uneasy."
"What aspect are you talking about?"
"It's not like he lied to me. If Yun Ming really knows nothing about the candidate game..." Gordon fell into deep thought again: "Then who is his guide? Hasn't he shown up yet?"
…………
The words are divided into two parts, the book of self-redemption.
"Where is this..." Yun Ming looked around: "You have traveled through time again?"
At this time, Yun Ming felt like he was in a film and television city. Opposite were brick walls and corridors, traffickers and footmen were on the roadside, behind him was a stone bridge and flowing water, and all the passersby were dressed in ancient clothes. Obviously, this is the world in Xiao Qi's book, but Yun Ming doesn't know that.
Different from the zombie world that trapped Caiflin, it was a single chapter specially written by Xiao Qi. It had nothing to do with the main story and did not even have a plot. Xiao Qi wrote a world view setting of a zombie outbreak and it was not perfected. The "Ming Dynasty" where Yun Ming currently lives is the most complete and structured background in the Book of Self-Redemption.
However... it only took Yun Ming two minutes to realize: This place was definitely not ancient times, and he was not traveling through time.
In these two minutes, Yun Ming only did one thing - listen to the wall.
"What's going on?" Yun Ming listened carefully to the conversations of the people around him. He didn't let go of the hawking, talking, or chatting. After several confirmations, he breathed a sigh of relief and deliberately complained: "In which dynasty did the common people speak Mandarin? Is it so standard?”
Yes, it's that simple. As we all know, a considerable amount of time-travel literature cannot stand up to scrutiny, not to mention the time and space errors such as eating potatoes in the Tang Dynasty and sitting on chairs in the Han Dynasty. Even if the authors are rigorous in writing and avoid all red flags, there is still one problem that must be solved. Faced with: That’s the language barrier.
For example: Even in the same time and space, I can’t understand Cantonese now. Could it be that I suddenly mastered it after traveling to ancient times?
So if I were from Luoyang, Henan, would there be no dialect problem if I traveled to Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty? Sorry, it still doesn't work, because the modern Chinese we speak is not much different from the Heavenly Book in the ears of real ancients.
Yun Ming listened for a while, and it was enough to judge that he was not from ancient times.
Moreover, he also determined that this place was the "Ming Dynasty" through the few words of people chatting on the roadside.
There is no other reason. The words "Mingxi Zong" and "Wang Gongchang" appeared in the conversations of passers-by.
"Well... Mingxi Zong Zhu Youxiao, Wang Gongchang, and Tianqi have been in six years. I understand, this is the Apocalypse Big Bang." Yun Ming searched for keywords in his mind: "The Apocalypse Big Bang is also called Wang Gongchang The Big Bang was a mysterious big explosion that occurred in Beijing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, in 1626, the sixth year of the Apocalypse. Together with the Death Hill Incident in ancient India and the Tunguska Explosion in Siberia, Russia, it is also known as one of the three largest explosions in the world. The mystery of nature.”
"Before coming here, I was confronting Gordon Gardner on the fishing boat, and I also saw his subordinate Kim Valariello."
"First of all, I can confirm that this is definitely not the real Ming Dynasty; secondly, I am not dreaming." Yun Ming looked around and saw row upon row of street buildings and a constant flow of cars and horses: "The human brain cannot make such a detailed dream. "
"Currently, the most likely possibility is that I was attacked by one of Gordon's subordinates. This ability user's ability is probably similar to dragging a person's spirit into a different world."
"Kind of like...SCP-826?"
Yun Ming dusted off the dirt on his body and wandered east and west along the river: "Interesting, I am trapped in this fictional world created based on the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty."
"Just think of it as playing the adventure mode of "Conflict for Hegemony"."
"Let me try how to crack this place and return to reality."
