Chapter 774: Qualification
"Only between the strong and the strong are qualified to negotiate conditions."
A trace of contempt flashed in Catherine's eyes, and she waved at me with disdain, and said coldly, "And you are not a strong man. If we want to kill you, it is as simple as pinching an ant to death."
"Kill him and get that bag back!"
At Catherine's order, one of the modified men wearing a mask walked slowly towards me.
He took off his mask as he walked, revealing a mouth that had no lips and teeth that could make people look directly at the upper and lower jaw bones.
What's even more strange is that a small amount of muscle tissue attached to his jawbone actually refracted a green light under the irradiation of flashlight.
His ability has something to do with this mouth?
"hey-hey……"
The transformed man smiled evilly, stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his naked jawbone in the air.
"vomit!"
Suddenly, a green column of water squirted out of a flesh tube growing under his tongue.
Will you spray water?
I raised my eyebrows and looked a little surprised, then I turned slightly and avoided it.
The water column that was sprayed was not even as fast as the average caliber bullet. Even if I reacted slowly, I would not be hit.
Is this the only way to transform a person?
Not only did I have some doubts, but logically speaking, these transforming people around Catherine should be the most powerful, but such tricks can't do anything to me at all.
But looking at the appearance of these people, they look like cats teasing mice.
As soon as many thoughts arose, they were interrupted by a sudden sound.
"Sir..."
I immediately looked back and saw a groove appearing on the ground where the water column fell, and white foam continued to emerge from the groove.
A disgusting smell spread in the air.
What he sprayed was corrosive!
Fortunately, I subconsciously avoided it just now, otherwise even if I have strong self-healing ability, I would never feel good when I encounter such a corrosive liquid.
Hula!
Suddenly, a pair of brown wings stretched out from the back of another transformed man. After he smiled at me, he waved his wings and rolled up a gust of wind and waves.
He rushed to the sky dozens of meters high and disappeared into the darkness.
Where did he go? What did he want to do? Are he going to sneak attack me?
Although there are many questions in my mind, I also know that no one here will solve my doubts.
However, their number advantage should not be necessary to attack me.
"vomit!"
Another nauseating corrosive liquid water sprayed over. I dodged it again and took out the saber.
"What, are you going to do it?"
Catherine smiled, smiling coldly, "Don't try to struggle, it's useless. No matter what, you won't be alive today."
"Is that so? Maybe I can take your head back like last time."
I was not willing to be outdone and retorted.
When Katherine heard this, the smile on her face disappeared, replaced by anger that could not be concealed.
"Kill him!"
"Dare you dare?"
I cut open my backpack with a knife and took out the key to opening the Queen Mother Palace, the square stone.
"If you do it, I will ruin this thing!"
"Slow down!"
Seeing this, Katherine's face darkened.
I knew I guessed their handle. When they came here with such a lot of effort, they must enter the Queen Mother Palace of the West. This square key is their lifeline.
Of course, I'm betting on whether my guess is accurate.
But at the same time, I was also prepared to slip away at any time. At my speed, I was confident that I would leave here safely. However, this was the best choice. I would never make such a choice unless I had no choice.
However, next, Catherine stopped talking, but gave the right to speak to the man at the center of the team.
The man looked at me indifferently, as if he didn't care about my existence.
"Speak out your conditions."
The sound like a mechanical one brought me an inexplicable pressure. It was at this time that I realized that Catherine's position in the team was far lower than that of this man.
But just judging from the appearance, I didn't find anything unique about this man.
"It's very simple. I'll open the Queen Mother Palace for you. You must not hurt me and my friends. I only need a small part of the things inside. If I get them, I will leave."
I wanted to exchange the key for a short-term peace, but I also knew that this verbal agreement would not have much effect, and it would last until the moment the Queen Mother Palace opened.
But at that time, we should still be able to escape from war and flee.
The man looked at me calmly. After a long time, he looked up at the dark sky and frowned slightly.
"It's a pity that you still don't have the right to make the conditions."
His words made me feel a little confused.
I'm sure the key to opening the Queen Mother Palace is extremely important to them, but if he says such words, isn't he afraid that I will destroy the key?
Could it be that they have other means?
Tick.
A drop of liquid suddenly dripped onto my head. I looked up in surprise, but a black shadow fell down.
It's the transformer who just flew away!
At this moment, his appearance was very miserable, as if he had just experienced a big battle, and there were several scars on his snow-white wings, which were deep enough to see the bones.
He half-kneeled on the ground and said with a ferocious face, "That woman... is very strong!"
Woman? Very strong?
Could it be Yuchengyao? How did they know the location of Yuchengyao?
I almost realized it instantly, and while I was shocked, I felt even more worried.
I believe that in order to deal with this birdman, Yu Chengyao must have used the ability to crystallize, and he may soon suffer the pain caused by side effects.
However, they should be safe at least for the time being.
"waste!"
Katherine lowered her voice, looked at the man standing in the center, and nodded at me, "We promised your conditions."
I breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left.
"Where are you going?"
Catherine's questioning came from behind.
"Go and pick up my companion."
I turned around and looked at her coldly. This machine, which was not even a human, was still as sinister and cunning as ever, and actually tried to threaten me with the Fire Monkey and the others as hostages.
Unfortunately, they made mistakes among them, including Yu Chengyao, a powerful transformer.
When I came to the place where Yuchengyao and the others were originally staying, I found that Yuchengyao was chatting with Li Xin without saying a word, which was completely different from the way he had just used his abilities.
On the contrary, Fire Monkey, his pair of pincers are still bleeding.
"Did you see the miserable appearance of that birdman?"
The fire monkey grinned at me, raised his hand that turned into pliers, "I did it."
