Chapter 081: The Rules of the Strong World
"Didn't you say that Dean Wei from your country wants to see me?" Shen Zheng asked.
Lang Lian smiled and motioned for Shen Zheng to sit down. Shen Zheng was not polite and walked over slowly and sat down on the guest seat.
Although Lang Lian is over fifty years old, he has a tall and straight figure and rarely white hair. He seems to be in an extremely strong stage both mentally and physically.
This is the pest controller.
Shen Zheng thought in his heart.[
He could feel an invisible pressure from the other person. If that pressure was there, it would not make him feel sad. But if he had seen such a pest controller not long ago, I am afraid that this kind of pressure would It will make him restless.
No, in that case, he would not be able to sit down calmly in front of such a person. At that time, when he faced such a strong man, he would be like those soldiers who dared not make a sound in the car, remaining nervously silent.
"This is a statement to the outside world." Lang Lian said. "It is to avoid exposing any flaws."
"Flaw?" Shen Zhengyi frowned.
"Wei Zhenggong is dead." Lang Lian said slowly.
"What 3f?" Shen Zheng was shocked. It was not that he was surprised by the death of an insect controller, because everyone has life and death. He was just surprised that Lang Lian would tell such a major secret to himself.
You know, insect controllers can be called the pillars of the country. One of the pillars of Wenlan fell, but the other pillar easily told people from other countries about this. Shen Zheng couldn't understand.
"You must be wondering why I, the commander-in-chief of Wenlan, would tell such an important thing to you, a Hazy Star person?" Lang Lian looked at him.
"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded.
"Actually, there is nothing difficult to explain." Lang Lian smiled, "Because those national events, disputes between countries, and hot and cold wars are all just games for insect planters. To us insect controllers, the country is just a game. storehouse."
"Warehouse?" Shen Zhengyi frowned.
"Being able to become an insect controller is already a superman above all living things." Lang Lian said, "But this is not the ultimate. Every insect controller has a higher dream, which is to become a more powerful existence. , to become a strong man who is truly integrated with the power of insects. For us, national affairs are no longer external to us, and mortal society has nothing to do with us. What we pursue is the ultimate in strength."
"I can understand it somewhat." Shen Zheng nodded.
Yes, isn't he on his way to the peak of power?
In the past, for him, a generous deposit and a stable residence were everything in life, but now? He already has wealth, status, glory, and can even easily become one of the rulers of the country. But are these things all there is to his life?
No, before that, he had already determined his future path, which was a path of growing stronger and a path leading to true freedom.
Now think about it, Dean Lin Liang does not usually manage the internal affairs of the college. Apart from him, he has never personally guided anyone. Moreover, even if he is mentoring him, he will suddenly leave to handle his own affairs. .
Because for insect controllers, nothing is more important than improving their own strength.
"As time goes by, you will understand more and more." Lang Lian said. "Therefore, the tense relationship between countries does not exist for the insect controllers who control that country. It is just It’s a game we set up among state managers.”[
"So you tell me such important news so calmly?" Shen Zheng asked.
"That's not necessarily the case." Lang Lian said, "The relationship between insect controllers is also different. Although everyone respects each other on the surface, in reality they are also infighting. But where there are enemies, there are friends. The Xun Qian Jue of Hao Xing and I is pretty good. friend."
Xun Qianjue is the commander-in-chief of Longxing Kingdom and another insect controller besides Lin Liang.
Then, Lang Lian said something that shocked Shen Zheng even more: "And this time, it was Wei Zhenggong who Lin Liang helped me kill."
"This is a little hard for me to understand." Shen Zheng shook his head.
"Wei Zhenggong has always wanted to seize my position." Lang Lian said, "Since you know Chai Jingtian, you should know something about Wei Zhenggong."
"He didn't say much to me," Shen Zheng said, "but at least I learned that Wei Zhenggong is a person who likes to listen to flattery. And I have already seen what kind of character Lie Ziqing he promoted is. You can imagine the character of such a person."
"His strength is far inferior to mine." Lang Lian said, "There is no need to even think about climbing to the peak of the strong. So he simply gave up and became passionate about power, status and the material enjoyment of mortals. For the sake of the country's strength, I have always ignored him. Anyway, those things are not what I pursue. But I didn't expect that he would take it further and actually want to harm me."
"I asked why our dean suddenly left without telling where he went." Shen Zheng smiled, "It turns out that I came to help you with this important matter."
"Although Wei Zhenggong is not as good as me, he is not far behind." Lang Lian said, "And killing the pillar of the country must be ensured in case of failure. Otherwise, no matter how strong I am, I may lose the support of the people across the country. Although I don’t care about these powers, but having this power will give me an environment where I can concentrate on studying my power without any interference.”
"Has Dean Lin Liang gone back?" Shen Zheng asked.
"Yes." Lang Lian said. "Both he and Qian Jue agreed to keep it a secret for me."
"I can do it too." Shen Zheng smiled.
One of the two pillars has fallen. It’s unclear what impact this will have on Vinland.
"Before Lin Liang left, Qian Jue and I spoke." Lang Lian looked at Shen Zheng, "At that time, I had received a notice from Chai Jingtian and learned that there was another insect controller like you in the Star Kingdom. Qian Jue and I discussed it, and Qian Jue promised me something, but neither he nor I have any say in this matter, and it is ultimately up to you to nod."
"You won't ask me... to be the dean of your Vinland College, right?" Shen Zheng said.
"Absolutely." Lang Lian smiled, "But he did not take up the position directly, but became the honorary dean. In this way, Vinland Country will have two insect controllers at least in name, and will not arouse the covetousness of other forces. , and you don’t have to be trapped here and be regarded as a traitor by the citizens of the Star Kingdom.”
"Both President Lin Liang and our commander-in-chief agree?" Shen Zheng asked.
"I know you are going to pass through our country, so I stopped you first and met with you first." Lang Lian said, "You can ask Qian Jue and Lin Liang about the specific matters after you return to the country. If you agree, then Just make a phone call and I will announce this to the outside world. Also, as the honorary dean, your annual salary is 1.2 billion yuan. I know this is not much, but my purpose is just to lend you this It's just the title of 'Pest Controller'. Normally, you shouldn't have a chance to fight for our Vinland."
1.2 billion? Shen Zheng was shocked, good guy, you can earn 100 million yuan in one month after becoming a pest controller? How can you spend all this money?
But when I think about it again, if I become a pest controller, I have the hope of becoming the master of a country. How much income will it bring? In comparison, an annual salary of 1.2 billion is nothing. Indeed, as Lang Lian said, it is not not much.
"If you are really friends with Dean Lin and Commander Xun, then this kind of thing is not a big deal." Shen Zheng thought about it and said, "But I still have to go back to China first and discuss it with them." [
"This is what it should be." Lang Lian nodded. "If you can agree, then the relationship between our two countries will be one step closer. This will be beneficial to both of us."
Shen Zheng nodded: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Returning to China early to settle this matter is probably what you want to see."
"Goodbye." Lang Lian put his hand on his forehead and gave an informal military salute, and Shen Zheng returned the same courtesy.
"Oh, that's right." As he was about to leave, Shen Zheng turned around again. "Over there at the border of Tianhe Kingdom, Lie Ziqing, the dean of Wenlan College, and Song Yuan, the dean of Tianhe College, teamed up to kill me. As a result, He was killed by me. I informed him in advance so as not to affect our relationship in the future."
"Just kill him." Lang Lian said in an understatement. "He's just a small teaching director. If you catch a lot of people with 100 insect power, if there is one missing, just make up for it. You have just become an insect controller. , maybe I’m not used to taking these external things lightly, it’ll be better as time goes by. There’s no need to talk about this kind of thing to me, and if you talk to me, it will make it seem like I’m not of a high level. In fact, even the country To us, it is nothing more than a resource library, let alone an inconspicuous little screw in the state machinery?"
Shen Zheng said for a moment. He thought this would be a very serious matter, but he didn't expect that for Lang Lian, it would be such a trivial matter.
It feels like when you say to others: Sorry, I accidentally stepped down a weed outside your courtyard wall while walking, and others shake their heads and smile at you and say it's nothing.
The world of the insect controller... Shen Zheng murmured in his heart and walked out slowly. Lang Lian walked him to the door and stopped.
"I know this is rude, but the news of Wei Zhenggong's death cannot be spread before you agree."
"I understand." Shen Zheng nodded and walked out. There was no one in the corridor. He followed the original path to the first floor based on his previous memory and entered the room where Chu Tianran was resting. At this time, Chu Tianran was chatting with him. Chai Jingtian was chatting, and when they saw him coming in, they both stood up immediately, with very respectful attitudes.
"Have we finished talking?" Chai Jingtian asked.
"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded. "If there's nothing else, we'll leave. There are still important things to discuss with the senior management after we return home."
"Okay, I'll arrange the flight right now." Chai Jingtian nodded and smiled. "I really appreciate you this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to resume my position as the teaching director of Wenlan College. By the way, this kid Feifei has always been Tell me, if you want to go to Longxing Country to have fun and experience things, can you take her with you?"
"No problem, she helped me a lot during this trip to Tianhe, and now it's time for me to repay her." Shen Zheng nodded, and at the same time sighed in his heart: Even the commander of the Chai Army used honorifics. Renyi Becoming a pest controller changes everything.
