Chapter 387: Always full of enthusiasm for life
"You know the little match girl?"
Li Zhongren did not continue to ask about the information about the fire. There is nothing new under the sun. Based on his experience, this was nothing more than a common method of refusing compensation. There was nothing to dig deeper into.
"On the corner of the next street."
When the bartender mentioned the little girl, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Zhongren carefully.
"Do you want to take care of this?"
"Someone entrusted me to avenge that little girl."
"call"
Hearing this, the bartender took a deep breath and spoke softly under the cover of the singing in the pub.
"The Bloody Earl, including the Goldshire Town, this entire mining area is the Bloody Earl's territory, and the mayor of Goldshire Town, Baron Tustin, is the Earl's brother-in-law."
"What do you want to express?"
"I would like to say that I suggest you keep your nose out of other people's business."
"But your tone doesn't sound like it."
Li Zhongren smiled slightly.
"What tone, I don't know what you are talking about."
The bartender's hands trembled slightly, but he quickly suppressed it.
Li Zhongren also did not ask any further questions. With his psychic perception, he could feel the turbulent waves in the bartender's heart. Although he could not read minds, the ability of psychic perception gave him extraordinary observation skills.
There was no doubt that the bartender had some connection to the girl, or to the fire, and was probably a descendant of the victims.
His purpose of staying here is probably to seek revenge, but the reality is that he doesn't have the power to do so.
"Where is the mayor's house?"
"Of course everyone in the castle knows about it."
"Hehe..have a nice night."
Li Zhongren stood up, threw down a gold coin, turned around and left the tavern, disappearing into the night.
"So, what are you going to do?"
Ye Lina had never heard of the Bloody Count. To the Red Robe Wizard, the Count was just material. What she was curious about was that after Li Zhongren got the information, he did not kill the Count directly, but returned to the hotel.
He seemed to be thinking about something.
“Nature is a related thing.”
"What is there to think about? Your ability is comparable to that of a dragon. At least, in my opinion, no one can threaten you unless you provoke the super empires of Faerun."
"No, no, killing is easy, but what happens after killing?"
"What do you mean?"
"Violence can solve problems, but it cannot eliminate them. It's easy to kill that Tustin, but after his death, the entire Goldshire Town will inevitably fall into turmoil. At that time, ordinary people will suffer. My original intention was to avenge the delayed justice, although this is not very meaningful. However, if this revenge comes at the cost of hurting other ordinary people, then I myself will be the perpetrator."
"Then why don't you just kill all the causes of unrest? And, as long as you show your power comparable to that of a dragon, that earl won't dare to cause trouble for you."
"What I'm worried about is not that, but the system that maintains Goldshire."
Li Zhongren drummed his fingers on the table.
To be honest, he couldn't think of any system that could maintain the stability of Shining Gold Town. Even on Blue Star, this was a difficult problem.
Wait, Blue Star.
Li Zhongren couldn't help but tilt his neck.
Yes, I am a blue star person, and I have such a powerful backer, why shouldn’t I use it?
-
Leon turned on the light.
People were startled.
Because he saw Li Zhongren, the man who bought the information from him.
At the same time, there were several heads on the table in his house.
This belongs to his boss, the tavern owner and his family.
An hour ago, I met the boss and told him that someone was asking about the fire. Yes, this boss is the mayor's man.
"You must know this town very well."
"I know something."
Leon took a deep breath slowly to stop his body from trembling. It was not because of fear, but excitement, because he knew that the strong man opposite him was probably serious.
"What about Tustin's family situation?"
"know."
Leon gritted his teeth, that was his enemy, how could he not understand.
"Tell me about his family members."
"Tustin had a wife, three lovers, and seven children."
“Who has the worst relationship with Tustin?”
Li Zhongren continued to ask, the nobles in this world practice monogamy, which is roughly similar to the ancient system of the main wife on Blue Star. As for lovers, they are similar to concubines and are also public.
"Tustin's illegitimate child was born when Tustin raped a maid. Not long after the maid gave birth to the child, Tustin's wife killed her, and the child became a groom."
"Are you still alive?"
In this world, illegitimate children have no status and are not even considered as born out of wedlock.
"Alive."
"Okay, thank you."
"What are you going to do?"
"Tomorrow, you will know."
Goldshire.
Baronial Castle.
At this moment, the place was already filled with the smell of blood.
The Baron, his wives, and children were all dead.
Along with his guards.
However, not even the furniture in the castle was damaged.
This is not surprising, Li Zhongren can easily do this with his current strength.
At this moment, standing opposite Li Zhongren was the groom, the baron's only child.
A fourteen-year-old boy.
He was a little panicked, but still somewhat calm, with a gleam in his eyes.
Li Zhongren didn't say anything, but he already understood what Li Zhongren meant.
"What are your orders?"
"Here, you can handle it."
"can."
The young man took a deep breath. All of the Baron's relatives had died, and he was the only heir. No one could find fault with him. Moreover, in this world, this kind of violent inheritance method was also common. After all, this was a world where personal power was supreme.
"this is for you."
Li Zhongren threw over a crystal stone, which seemed to have blood flowing inside.
This is Li Zhongren's blood, which contains a part of his body, as well as the will left behind through psychic perception. When necessary, this thing can classify itself to protect this young man. After all, he is the most critical step that he is concerned about next.
"Then, wait for notification."
"As you wish."
-
Blue Star, Stargate
floating city
First Operations Meeting Room
At this moment, the place is full of people.
And it was led by five of them.
These people all came from the Blue Star Human Federation, the forces represented by the former five united nations.
Because of the pressure from the world of Faerun, the country of Blue Star no longer exists, but the remaining forces are still there.
"He's the reason for today's meeting."
The chairman of the floating city, the person in charge of the East District, spoke. At the same time, a person was projected on the three-dimensional screen in front of everyone.
And his information.
Name: Li Zhongren
Age: twenty-four years old
Height: used to be 178, now 183.
Area: East District
Soon, after reading the information, everyone present understood the reason.
Simply put, an ordinary person who once belonged to the East District of Blue Star, no, not an ordinary person, but a fool, suddenly one day he was no longer a fool, and then he directly applied to participate in the interstellar expedition plan, and was directly promoted to a legendary strongman.
"So, he was possessed?"
Someone spoke up.
"No, I am more inclined to believe that he has awakened the mystery in the womb. This is what we say in the East District. In the West District, it is probably that the spiritual light has revived?"
"This is probably the most reasonable explanation."
The people in North America nodded.
"Every step he takes is pre-planned, without any delay."
"From waking up, to going to the other world, to participating in the experiment, all signs show that he firmly believes that his transformation experiment will succeed. Not only will it succeed, but he will even be able to directly gain tremendous power."
"And I got the beauty by the way."
People in the Europa zone said enviously.
Obviously, the information also included what happened between him and Ye Lina.
"Is he from Blue Star?"
"It should be. In other words, it doesn't matter whether it is or not. His values and behaviors are the behaviors of people from Blue Star."
The round chairman spoke.
"Yesterday, he took the initiative to contact us."
"What does he want to do?"
"He received a commission. There is a town called Shining Gold 2,000 kilometers to the north. The lord there hopes to establish cooperation with our Blue Star and help them mine ore. But this is just an appearance. The truth is another matter. You can look through the "Little Match Girl" file."
After a moment's silence, someone couldn't help but smile.
"That's exactly how you East District people do it. Ha, you're decisive in killing people. But the question is, will the people in this world allow us to reach out that far? In name, they asked us to mine ore, but in reality, they just wanted Blue Star to maintain a certain order for that town. In a sense, this can be considered as interfering in the internal affairs of another world."
"That's because we took a specific route before, and everyone knows it."
Several people looked at each other and knew what was going on.
Yes, Blue Star’s extraordinary system is unique.
Blue Star is a world that is moving from science to the supernatural, but the biggest drawback of the personal power system is what the Blue Star government hates, because it means that one person can decide the future of the entire Blue Star, and even have the power of life and death.
Especially for the former powerful institutions, how could they be willing to give up the power in their hands?
Therefore, the Human Federation of Blue Planet must naturally have countermeasures.
That is, your extraordinary system can still exert a powerful force here on Blue Star, but it will eventually be suppressed by national-level units. It can maintain the so-called strategic balance to a certain extent, so that individual extraordinary people dare not act recklessly.
Among them, the so-called expedition contract is the embodiment of this kind of research, which is roughly similar to the dragon energy and luck that have been set up in the East Country.
However, this good fortune is currently owned by the entire Blue Star.
Blue Star does not want to go to war with Faerun at the moment, so it signed a non-interference contract, which means that all Blue Star supernatural beings must abide by this contract unless someone from Faerun asks you to do something.
This is why Li Zhongren needs Ye Lina's authorization before he can take action.
But, in fact, Li Zhongren himself was not controlled by this treaty. Even Li Zhongren himself did not know about it. He just thought that Lan Xing did not want to give others a chance to criticize him.
After his transformation surgery was successful, the contract became invalid.
In other words, Li Zhongren is actually now considered a superhuman in Furen, but his heart is on Blue Star.
This is interesting.
The people of Blue Star accepted the commission from the local "superhumans" of Faerun to build a mining base there. No one can find any fault with this, and the same goes for the local forces of Faerun.
"That's it. We agree to it."
Soon, the issue was settled, but the round chairman spoke again.
"However, how should we get along with Li Zhongren? He is a legendary extraordinary person who is completely out of the control of Blue Star. Moreover, his abilities are extremely abnormal and his body is almost immortal."
"First, forbid him to return to Blue Star."
The head of North America spoke up.
"Unless he is willing to sign a new contract."
"hehe."
Hearing this, the head of the Europa region laughed out loud.
"Are you worried that he might do the same thing in the North American region?"
"Why, is there any difference between you in the European region and us? 007 was invented by Britain, right?"
"Britain has already withdrawn from the Europa zone. It has little to do with us."
"."
"The strong always have privileges. The purpose of the contract has never been to restrict a certain extraordinary person. No matter how strong he is, he will lose against our entire Blue Planet. The purpose of the contract is to maintain the stability of the entire social order. After all, this is the structure of our society."
Finally, the chairman of the round, the representative of the East District, spoke.
"Moreover, his own values are also very characteristic of the East District. You don't have to worry about destroying order. As for your internal affairs, we have agreed before that everyone should not interfere with each other or hinder each other."
"So, my suggestion is to establish an equal dialogue relationship with him. After all, according to the rules, he did not rely on the contract transformation we provided, but relied entirely on his own abilities. He can be regarded as a native extraordinary person in Faerun. Our cooperation with him will not destroy the contract established with the demigods in Faerun."
"I agree."
“Reconsideration.”
The top of the Goldshire Castle.
Li Zhongren looked at the commotion below.
That's Blue Star's engineering team.
However, what really made him feel emotional was his current identity.
It's quite interesting that he joined the Furen nationality for no apparent reason.
However, from this point, he also knew one thing, that is, in the game between Blue Star and Feren, it was obvious that the top leaders of both sides possessed extremely powerful existences.
“It’s a completely different feeling.”
On the side, Ye Lina suddenly spoke.
"People from Blue Star seem to have a magical power. They are always full of enthusiasm for life."
"This is based on the social structure of Blue Star."
Li Zhongren explained.
"We didn't have any extraordinary people in the beginning, so it was rare for a single person to be completely unscrupulous, because his foundation also needed countless ordinary people to maintain it, and it would eventually develop and focus on the results of the entire society."
"The reason why people are passionate is that hard work pays off. The people in these engineering teams have families in Blue Star. They just consider this as work. They earn a lot of money, so naturally they are passionate."
"Also, that little girl has been saved."
"Ah."
Yelena nodded.
"It has dissipated, but you didn't even go to see it."
"A program without ego, I helped her only because I wanted to help justice and add fuel to the fire of society."
"Then, we should set off."
"Ah."
Li Zhongren nodded. After Blue Star settled here, the illegitimate son of the former mayor would probably become a puppet, and the main order here would be decided by the Blue Star people.
It cannot be said to be very good, but at least it will guarantee the basic rights of the grassroots people.
Yes, for the lower class people, the only way to do good to them is not to give them something.
But not taking away what belongs to them is the real good.
The most appropriate one is probably the policy of inaction during the reign of Liu Bang.
It’s okay, don’t bother the people. After the autumn harvest, take away the grain. As for other matters, don’t bother me like this.
