Chapter 96 Never break a promise(1/2)
(Two chapters in one)
After returning from his previous life, Kino did not take out the 2,000 sets of equipment for the time being.
The administrative residence was bombed, and reconstruction work is in progress. It will not be too late to put it in after the warehouse is built.
Chino took a look at his fear value, which was 5782 points.
Compared with the respect value, the fear value he gained during this round of invasion is relatively small.
Obviously, all his actions have a sense of justice in the eyes of soldiers or civilians. Except for those who survived the explosion and saw the shadow of death, and Durang, almost no one else was afraid.
Chino invested 3000 fear points in telekinesis, raising it from the most basic Lv1 to Lv3, and the upper limit of telekinesis has also reached 900 kilograms.
He took out the silence from the space ring and tried to operate it with telekinesis.
0.3 grams of silence is very small, comparable in shape to a drop of water, but don't forget that this is a material with strong interaction force. All atoms have stopped vibrating, and the physical strength has reached true infinity. Steel is like cheese in front of it.
Fragile.
Theoretically, as long as the force exerted is large enough and Silence reaches a sufficient flying speed, it can even penetrate the planet.
Kino came to the ruins of the administrative residence. There was no one around. He looked at a broken stone pillar and used his telekinesis to drive silence toward it.
This stone pillar is nearly ten meters in diameter. It was originally a load-bearing pillar of the administrative residence. It took twenty men to hug it to surround it, and it is made of hard granite material.
But under the impact of Silence, this granite pillar shattered like tofu. The wreckage fell to the ground, causing violent vibrations. The center of the impact was directly blasted into powder by Silence, and the air was filled with fine stone chips.
Such a mammoth scene, but no sound was heard. All sound waves at the impact point were swallowed up by the gravitational lens effect. It was still quiet late at night, as if it was in the vacuum of the universe.
This power is no less than that of a 125mm tank main gun.
After testing the power of silence, Kino put it away and looked at the fear system again.
He invested the remaining 2,500 fear points into the Death Incarnation System and unlocked an ability called "Death Claws".
【Death Claws: The host's hand is attached to the power of death, and the wounds caused will be eroded by the air of death and cannot be healed within a certain period of time, and all treatment methods will be converted into damage to the wounds until the erosion ends】
【Using this ability will trigger the shadow of death, which can be seen by people around you regardless of whether they are dying or not, please be careful】
This time of reincarnation invasion, the troll-blooded Wolff caused a lot of trouble. With his overbearing resilience, if Paladin hadn't used the ballista wittily, he would have been really hard to deal with.
Death Claws, the ability to restrain the recovery system, must be replaced sooner or later, otherwise it will be troublesome to get a higher-level troll bloodline.
And when using the Death Claw, you can trigger the Shadow of Death. This is another way to harvest the fear value. There is absolutely no loss in replacing it, but you need to be a little careful when using it.
According to the description, this kind of shadow of death can be glimpsed by anyone. If it is released at the wrong time, it is likely to be regarded as evil. While harvesting the fear value, it will be hostile and bring negative reputation effects, so you must be cautious.
After the exchange was completed, Kino looked at his right hand and mobilized the Death Claw.
Black death energy appeared in the air, like a poisonous snake spitting out its seeds, quietly attached to his right hand. When his five fingers formed claws to grab another stone pillar next to him, the dark torrent entangled and intertwined in the air, and the strange death energy roared out.
An indescribable giant shadow condensed around him, like some abominable thing spreading black wings.
"Hiss!" The stone pillar was torn apart by the claws of the God of Death without hesitation, and there were still dark substances remaining at the fracture. These dead energies were highly corrosive, and wherever they touched, it was as if the passage of time had accelerated a thousand times, and the granite instantly
It ages into tiny fine sand and is carried away by the evening breeze without leaving any trace.
However, the erosion did not last long. It seems that the investment in fear value was too low and the level was too low. The higher the level later, the effect and time of erosion will be greatly enhanced.
Now, Kino has LV3 telekinesis, LV1 Shadow of Death, LV1 Death Claws, plus the silence he made in the past. If he and Wolfe were to face off again, it would be one-sided.
Killing.
As soon as Kino regained his power, Lugo suddenly ran over from a distance: "Why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time."
Chino: “What’s the matter?”
Lugo: "Didn't you ask me to capture Joe alive? He was caught. This kid wanted to pack up his money and run away, but he had so many monthly coins that he couldn't even put them in a few sacks. I caught him in the middle of packing.
."
Chino: “Where is the person now?”
Lugo: “I’ll take you to the dungeon.”
The two of them came to the dungeon. Lugo was an experienced gangster, and he knew that local snakes like Joe had many tricks and accomplices, so they set up a large number of light and dark sentries here to prevent escape or prison robbery.
No, there were a dozen little thieves shot to death lying on the ground. They were all loyal dogs who wanted to save people.
Kino walked into the cell, signaled the guard to go out, and then looked at Qiao who was tied up.
Joe obviously did not cooperate when he was arrested, and Lugo was a man who took action whenever he could, and tried to be unreasonable even if he could be reasonable.
No, he was beaten until his nose was bruised, his face was swollen, his eyes were black, and one of his front teeth was missing.
As soon as Qiao saw Kino, he immediately begged: "Sir, please spare me! I was really deceived! At that time, the man took out 5 gold moons and lied to me that he was the royal minister.
He also said that there is something wrong with you, the administrator, and the royal family specially sent him to investigate. How did I know that he was a visitor from outer space..."
Kino raised his hand to interrupt him: "Golden Moon is a status symbol, and I don't blame you for being deceived. Promise me two things, and I will let you leave Twilight City alive."
Qiao’s eyes were filled with pity, as if grasping a straw of hope: “You said it! I will definitely do it!”
Chino raised his index finger: "First, as for your wealth, I will leave you 2,000 silver moons, enough for you to spend the rest of your life comfortably. The rest will serve as fines for this incident and will be handed over to the executive mansion."
Although Joe was greedy for money, of course he chose the former between life and money, not to mention that Kino also left him 2,000 silver moons, which was kind enough, so he quickly agreed.
Chino: "Second, let my subordinate Lugo take over your power."
This made Joe hesitate for a while. His influence in Twilight City was cultivated from his grandparents and passed down from generation to generation.
But as mentioned before, when it comes to life, Qiao has a clear balance. Anyway, he has entered middle age and can no longer break through. It is better to retreat bravely.
Joe hurriedly said: "This is easy to handle. I'll just go and talk to my deputy and give the seal to Lugo. As for whether he can control the people I leave behind, it's not my business."
“You don’t have to worry about whether this is secure.” Kino believed in Lugo’s ability as a gangster.
After reaching a consensus, Joe honestly told where he hid the treasure and gave the seal to Kino.
However, Joe still played a trick. He only told all the treasures in Twilight City, but not the ones outside the city.
2,000 silver moons can indeed feed and drink enough for the rest of your life, but if you include luxury expenses such as a house, women, and slaves, it is still a little less, and you need more money.
Kino didn’t ask any questions, and released Qiao after getting the money and the seal.
Joe was extremely grateful to Kino, drove a simple carriage, and carried 2,000 silver moons to escape the Twilight City overnight and secretly hunt for treasure.
After Joe left, Kino found Lugo and handed him the seal: "From today onwards, Joe's power will be under your control, and you should discipline those ruffians."
Lugo smiled and said: "I know this well, leave it to me."
"One more thing. I guess Joe is hiding something from me. This kind of person is very cunning and should have his 'private money' elsewhere. Now you lead people to chase him out of the city and follow him secretly until he gets the money...
"Kino pulled his fingers in front of his neck and made a throat-cutting motion.
“Understood.” Lugo said simply as always, turned and left.
Chino is a very trustworthy person.
Having said that he would let Joe leave Twilight City alive, he would never break his promise.
But Kino could never guarantee what would happen after leaving Twilight City.
After taking care of things here, Kino felt a little hungry and was going to eat something, but he didn't know what to eat.
After thinking for a moment, he took out a silver moon and said to himself: "King - eat meat. Laurel - eat sugar."
“Ding.” The silver moon rotates.
Catch, turn over.
Kino looked at the king on the back of his palm, remained silent for a moment, then reached out and turned the silver moon over so that the laurel flower faced up.
“Go buy some candy.”
…
In the middle of the night, Lugo came back with a carriage of moon coins - the silver moons that Kino left for Joe, plus the ones that Joe hid outside, a total of more than 5,000 silver moons and more than 80,000 copper moons were seized.
Iron Moon mixed loose money.
Lugo sent the money to Kino's temporary residence, and Kino gave him a reward of 200 silver moons, and then gave him a task - to get rid of Varta.
Kino didn’t say the reason, and Lugo didn’t ask. He went straight to work.
To be honest, working here in Chino is so tiring. Today I am cutting this thing, and tomorrow I am cutting that thing. I always have to work all night long. Lugo wanted to yell at this inhumane overtime behavior.
But there is no way, he gave too much.
Lugo knew that Varta was very well-informed, so he went without any fanfare and went alone. He swaggered along the way without hiding anything, pretending to be a very laid-back ruffian.
Varta's eyeliners had seen Lugo early, but because he had come to discuss business once before and now seemed very relaxed and without any hostility, the agents didn't pay much attention to him and just thought he was here to discuss business again.
Lugo handed over the money, knocked on the door, and entered Varta's house.
Warta was wearing pajamas at this time, sitting on the empty bed with a sad face, lamenting: "Yang died at your banquet, how can I survive this long night..."
Lugo scratched his butt, shook his legs and asked: "Do you want to see him?"
Varta lowered his head and muttered: "Of course..."
“Very good, I’ll send you to see him.” Lugo held the handle of the knife and unsheathed the sharp blade.
Varta was so frightened that he urinated and quickly raised his hands: "I surrender! I surrender! I surrender!"
