Empire: God System

"……Well, this is more complicated to explain."Facing this relatively private question from the mysterious man, Landry hesitated for a while before answering.

He didn't mean to cover up anything. In Landry's view, as long as the mysterious man wanted to, the other party could do it. He didn't want to talk about all the information about himself, so he didn't want to say it just because it was really complicated to explain, and he didn't like to discuss this matter that had been bothering him for a long time and couldn't solve it properly.

"Just in time, it should take a while to get to Hal's side, right?"

Luthor obviously has no intention of letting Landry go. The implication of what he said just now is: go to Hal now. The road there is still long, and there is plenty of time for you to explain.

" The bitter Landry was about to start the car and head towards Hal's house, but he suddenly saw in the rearview mirror that Luther had put down his pistol!

Landry, who had never given up on getting rid of Luther's control, instantly started to escape. He had already planned in his mind how he would use a series of elegant movements to completely make the mysterious man behind him lose his balance, and then how he would regain control of the situation.

In fact, Rand Li does not necessarily reject the deal proposed by Luther. As Luther said, he does need a lot of money, but there are two different concepts of voluntarily agreeing to this kind of transaction and being forced to agree! Taking the initiative to agree means that he can Know more about the mission details, understand Luther's robbery plan in detail, and ensure that when the money is divided later, you can actually get a large amount of money, instead of being forced to agree to join the gang like now, except for the rare metal. Apart from that, he knows almost nothing. He doesn’t know the robbery plan, he doesn’t know how many people there are, and he doesn’t know how much money he will get if he succeeds. He has lived in Yunshen City since he was a child. In this city with the most criminals Landry, who grew up, did not reject the clichéd but classic crime stories, the kind where everyone gets together, comes up with a crazy plan, and then makes a lot of money.

But Landry believes that what he is experiencing now is definitely not one of those stories. He feels that his current situation is more similar to a production worker on an assembly line than a member of the protagonist group in a legendary story. He just needs to concentrate on his own work according to the arrangements of management. He didn't know anything about the rest.

Landry even suspected that this mysterious man's so-called rare metal was just a cover. Maybe he was for other goals and roped in himself and Hal just to make himself and Hal take the blame. When the police arrested them, the two of them who didn't know anything naturally couldn't reveal any information, and in the end they wouldn't pose any threat to the mysterious man wearing a mask.

So even if they knew that resisting was very risky, it was very possible. This has led to unknown changes in the currently relatively stable situation, but Landry will still try. He doesn't want to die without understanding.

Landry, who has completely rehearsed his subsequent actions in his heart, is a little nervous. He held the steering wheel tightly, preparing to launch his own counterattack.

But when Landry tried to start the car, he was shocked to find a steel pipe stuck under his accelerator. This steel pipe directly prevented Landry from stepping on the accelerator!

He I already knew in advance that I might use the method of suddenly starting the car to make him lose his balance in order to try to escape, and I was fully prepared in advance and laid the trap! If I tried to force start the car at the beginning, then step on After braking... a bullet will enter from the back of my head and penetrate my forehead. It will touch the car window with blood and brains in a graceful gesture.

Landry's pupils are fierce as if he foresees his own death. Shrinking, goosebumps bulged all over the arms, and the scalp felt numb and itchy as if it had been pricked with needles.

Landry, who controlled himself and did not react to any stress, breathed a long sigh of relief. He felt that his body was a little weak as he circled back and forth on the edge of death, and he couldn't help but slumped in the driver's seat.

After calming down for a while, all the newly ignited hopes were shattered. He forcibly controlled himself not to look back at Luther. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He leaned down and took off the steel pipe very slowly. Obediently, He started the car and drove to Hal's house, not daring to make any other small moves along the way.
