C96

When the White-headed Eagle broke Viktor's third finger, the doctor had no choice but to reveal his whereabouts. Viktor's performance had already exceeded what the White-headed Eagle had expected, and protecting zero did not conform to the common sense of this era where he was the center of attention. The miraculous connection that happened between Su Yun and Viktor caused the White-headed Eagle to think of the word friendship that was almost forgotten.

If it was just a dog-meat friend, then it would be fine, but for Viktor to be able to call out for zero until three of his fingers were snapped by Lan Qi, that would already exceed normal friendship, and more or less contain a sense of familiarity. Lan Qi hated these feelings, because he believed without hesitation that Viktor's words were definitely not true.

He told the White-headed Eagle to head towards the north to find the Parkland's valve's bad luck. Lan Qi was also clear about the situation between Zero and Solon. It was reasonable that he would want to find the Parkland for misfortune. But his instincts told him what else Viktor was hiding.

"Listen, man." Lan Qi took out a dagger and placed it on Viktor's neck. "I don't like to cause trouble, nor do I want to kill people in the city. So for God's sake, tell me what else I don't know. "You see, this will save us a lot of trouble."

Viktor forced out a smile on his face. "That's all I know, really."

The black man nodded and said helplessly, "Then I can only kill you because I don't want you to notify that soldier."

He was bluffing. In turbulent times, everyone could sell anything in order to survive, let alone that damned friendship. The White-headed Eagle did not believe that Viktor would hide anything when their lives were at stake.

Maybe he was right, but he would never know the answer. Because a cold pistol was pointing the black barrel of the gun at the back of his head.

The black man's pupils contracted. As a Sniper Specialist, his senses were unquestionably sharp, otherwise he would not have been able to survive until now in this dangerous place. It wasn't until he felt the cold metal of the weapon against his head that he realized he'd been shot in the head. This meant the man was at least better than he was.

"Alright, no matter who you are, you are not allowed to kill people in my territory. Now, remove your hand from Mr. Viktor's. " It was a lazy voice, and the words were slurred by what it said.

Fortunately, Lan Qi heard it clearly, so he slowly let go of Viktor. Then the black man slowly turned around, and a white man with a cigar in his mouth appeared in Lan Qi's eyes.

"What the hell? Just wait until a little later to collect my corpse." Viktor scolded as he used one hand to support the wall and stood up.

Maester said with a wronged look on his face: "Lad, I found out that something's wrong and decided to follow along. What do you want from me, I'm not your personal bodyguard!"

Listening to their conversation, even if one was deaf, one would know that the two of them knew each other and had a certain level of friendship. The White-headed Eagle coughed dryly and said: "If there is nothing else, I will not disturb the two of you reminiscing about the past."

Maester kept his gun and said indifferently: "You can go, but in this city, I don't want to see you again."

Lan Qi smiled. "No problem. This is not the end of my stay." If you don't mind, I want to leave the city immediately. "

"The legs are on you, please." Maester opened up a path generously, and revealed an enchanting smile towards the White-headed Eagle.

Unfortunately, the black man was not a girl who had never seen the world. He was indifferent to Maester's smile. He gave Viktor a heavy glance, then put away his dagger and walked out of the alley, disappearing under the night sky of the Raging Reef City.

Maester held up the doctor and said: "Look, I saved you again."

"I have. "If a mutated organization appears next time, I will personally cut it off for you." Viktor grinned.

Maester's face immediately turned white, and he cursed: "Crow's beak!"

On the way to the clinic, Maester handed the doctor a cigarette. Viktor used his nicotine to numb the pain in his hands, and asked: "Why let him go, don't tell me you've suddenly turned your back on evil and decided to do good?"

"Damn good for evil." Maester scoffed, and said in a deep voice: "Alright, it's not that I don't want to touch him, but that I can't. Behind that man is the Parkland, do you understand? My dear Doctor Viktor. "

Viktor was slightly taken aback, then shook his head: "Looks like our soldiers are in trouble."

"Hey, I think I made the right bet. Do you know, Remte has been asking around for information on the soldiers recently. "

"Remte?"

Maester nodded: "That's right, that newly formed place of residence. Theon knows, he's the vice chairman of the Remte, a huge figure. "

"Why would he ask about the soldiers?" Viktor frowned.

"Because Zero had once stayed in the Remte, and he made that noble young master of the Parkland suffer a little. What's more, Remte is definitely not willing to let this chance slip by. That Theon, he sure is ambitious. " Maester stroked his chin and said: "Perhaps, through zero, I can make a few deals with him."

Viktor was completely confused. Maester knew that he did not understand and shook his head: "Simply put, if the Remte wants to rise in power, then he has to do something big. In this way, it will be able to attract the attention and investment of other companies or chaeurs. From the looks of it, Theon wants to overthrow Parkland and the key is zero. "

Maester spat out a mouthful of cigarette, and said: "If I were Theon, I would definitely have secretly used various methods to help me get rid of Parkland. If Zero succeeded, Theon could stand out to clarify the relationship between the two. A success of zero represented a success of the Remte. On the other hand, if he failed with zero, as long as Theon did not grab hold of the weakness in Parkland's hands, he could stay out of this matter. Without substantial evidence, the Parkland couldn't do anything about him. So to Theon, this is a brilliant plan to advance and to attack, and to retreat and defend. "

With the clinic in sight, Maester released the doctor. Viktor shook his head: "Such a complicated matter, I don't and I don't want to understand."

"Of course you don't understand. This is politics, man." Maester laughed and turned to leave.

Viktor walked into the clinic, and his words still echoed in his ears. He murmured, "Ambition? When desire loses its shackles, it either destroys others or... "I can only destroy myself ?"

After saying those words that were filled with philosophy, Viktor took out a bottle of Intense Flurry from the wine cabinet. The doctor gulped a few mouthfuls, then put a hand on his finger where the joint had fallen off.

The next moment, a scream rang out from the clinic like a pig being butchered.
