Wu Ming sat on the chair again and looked at the time. According to what Mike said, the person sent by Lieutenant Colonel Birkenstock to pick him up would arrive in just ten minutes, so Wu Ming planned to pry in during this period.
Open your mouth to talk about this Steven, unless the other party doesn't know about Professor Xu.
Steven didn't dare to move at this moment. The candle lying on his shoulder was like a god of death, controlling his life and death. Steven had no doubts about Wu Ming's words, because the other party didn't need to lie to him. He could become
As a steward of the Delbert family, Steven naturally has his own unique characteristics.
Glancing at Zhu who was proudly showing off his fangs, and then glancing at Wu Ming who was relaxed and carefree there, Steven knew that he had met an unprecedented opponent this time. After thinking briefly, he said, "What do you want to ask?"
"What's your status in the Delbert family?" This was Wu Ming's first question.
"I am a steward, similar to the role of a butler, and in the Delbert family, there are twenty stewards like me!" Steven replied without hesitation. These are not secrets, so he answered naturally.
quick.
"It involves some confidential matters, how much do you know?" This is Wu Ming's second question.
"Then what does it depend on?" Steven said.
Wu Ming smiled. What the other party said meant that the identity of the manager did have some weight. If the other party had no confidence, he would not have said that at all. Moreover, Wu Ming also knew that this Steven was a smart man, at least better than Steven.
That idiot husband is smart. The so-called smart person means that he knows how to understand current affairs. When he is strong, he can bully others and act arrogant. When he is weak, he will put his tail between his legs and act like a grandson. Wu Ming likes to deal with smart people, at least
No effort required.
"About three months ago, the Delbert family transported a scientist from China to here. Do you know about this?" Wu Ming asked in a deep voice.
While asking questions, Wu Ming carefully observed Steven's expression, and sure enough he saw a glimmer of light in his eyes.
There is a door.
Wu Ming was excited in his heart, but on the surface he didn't move at all, just waiting for the other party to give an answer.
"The Delbert family has been looking for valuable scientists from all over the world. This matter has been going on, especially those who have made certain achievements in vitality research. The Delbert family will get them. This is a talent collection plan, but this matter
I'm not the person in charge, I just know a little bit about it. As for the people brought back from China three months ago, I don't know the specific situation." Steven said carefully. After seeing what he said, the killer opposite
God's face darkened, and he immediately complained and continued hurriedly: "But I know that all the scientists who were brought back were placed in the Delbert family's top-secret underground base, the Maze. The Maze's confidentiality level is extremely high.
I can't get in yet. But I know the exact location."
After saying this, Steven secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Wu Ming's face looked better.
What he just said was not a lie. It was not that he didn't want to say it, but that he didn't dare. Just as Wu Ming knew that he was a smart man, Steven also knew that he was definitely facing a ruthless person this time. In
Even though he knew the power of the Delbert family, he was still so confident. He obviously had something to rely on, which meant that it would be effortless for the other party to kill him.
In this case, he simply told the truth, and he also knew one more thing.
A member of the Delbert family established a base in China, and this base was occupied almost three months ago. And the member of the Delbert family also disappeared. This matter is a member of the Delbert family.
Shame was even more of a secret. When Steven saw Wu Ming and heard what the other party was asking about, he immediately understood that the occupation of the Chinese base was probably related to the man in front of him.
In this case, he did not dare to hide anything. Although he might be retaliated by the Delbert family afterwards, at least he could save his life now. Just as Wu Ming thought, Steven was a smart man who understood current affairs.
After telling Wu Ming the location of the underground base called 'Maze', Steven glanced at the other party with some anxiety. At this time, when Wu Ming raised his hand, Zhu Cai, who had been lying on Steven's body, was a little reluctant.
Flying away, Steven breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that this man was very trustworthy.
Wu Ming seemed to see through Steven's thoughts and said directly: "I said, if you answer whatever I ask, without concealing or deceiving you, not only will I not kill you, but I will also give you unimaginable benefits."
After saying that, Wu Ming waved his hand and threw out a card. Steven was also a third-level awakener of vitality. He was not weak. He reached out and caught it. A closer look revealed a gleam on his face.
What Wu Ming gave him was a creature card, the second-level creature Ogre Barbarian. This was the creature card Wu Ming got from the orcs in his early years. However, this creature was of little use to Wu Ming. After all,
At that time, Wu Ming had two powerful creatures, skeletons and ghosts. But what Wu Ming had learned from Mike and Donner before was that here, the Delbert family was the supreme ruler, and the law they promulgated was,
Ordinary people are not allowed to possess cards above the first level, especially creature cards and spell cards. Once discovered, they will be immediately arrested, interrogated and convicted. Naturally, cards have become rare here, even in Steven's hands.
There are no decent cards. Of course, this is only the superficial rule of the Delbert family. In fact, there is a black market here. Generally speaking, many cards are circulated from the black market, such as this second-level biological card.
, enough to exchange for a considerable amount of money.
Yes, coins are still used as currency here. That is because they were also affected by the disaster of the invasion of vitality, but the damage to the time sequence here is the lowest. This can be seen from the training and equipment of the soldiers here.
For Steven, a second-level biological slave card, even a rare card, is nothing as a manager, but it is a signal from Wu Ming to him, that is, as long as he obeys,
You will get certain benefits, and this is just the beginning.
Wu Ming believed that with Steven's shrewdness, it was impossible to understand the mystery. Another point was that he wanted to stop Steven's mouth. Before rescuing Dr. Xu, Wu Ming did not want to cause the Delbert family's rebellion.
Notice.
"Steven, destiny is not something you choose, but it chooses you. You go and take your people with you. You know what to do!" Wu Ming waved his hand, Steven's expression
I was stunned for a moment, figured out the key, and hurriedly got up and left.
Wu Ming's intention is very obvious, that is to let Steven leave, and if the other party is smart, he will not tell what happened today. After all, they have nothing to lose today, and since those soldiers were brought by Steven
, those must be Steven's cronies, it shouldn't be difficult to restrain them.
And for Steven himself, he will not tell anything about what happened today, because he has already told the secrets of the Delbert family, and even received a card from Wu Ming. This card has no value.
Very big, but just like Steven telling the secrets of the Delbert family, once this matter is exposed, will the Delbert family let him go?
Based on Steven's understanding of this family, that is definitely not the case. He knows that once the Delport family knows that he has revealed the location of the 'maze', no matter what the final result is, Steven will not even think about it.
Better off.
Therefore, he will keep this matter in his stomach and will never tell it, let alone report it.
After Steven left, Mike and Donner came to their senses. They had never seen Steven so humble and so afraid of a person. Mike knew Wu Ming's methods, so he didn't think anything of it, but Donner was
The shocked and arrogant Steven turned out to be as obedient as a rabbit. It was simply incredible.
"Mike, the person picking me up should be here soon, right?" Wu Ming looked at the time. It was almost an hour since Mike had a phone call with Lieutenant Colonel Birkenstock. At that time, the other party said that someone would be sent to pick him up in an hour, and now the time is just right.
Mike also reacted when he heard this, thought for a while, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Wu, actually I don't think Lieutenant Colonel Birkenstock will listen to you. I know my commander. He probably wants to find out your situation, and maybe he will."
Use force."
"That's not necessarily the case!" Wu Ming still looked confident. When Mike saw it, he knew that what he said was in vain. Now Wu Ming was like a god in his heart, almost omnipotent, so he also
Say nothing more.
After leaving Mike's home and returning to the previous military base, Donner wanted to ask several times on the way, but he held back. Obviously Wu Ming was also much more unpredictable in his eyes. In fact, it was also when Wu Ming dealt with Steven.
The methods used frightened Donner.
The people sent by Lieutenant Colonel Birkenstock had arrived. They were several officers in military uniforms. After seeing Mike, they stepped forward and said a few words. Then they glanced at Wu Ming and said, "Is that him?"
Mike nodded, and then the officers said to Wu Ming: "Sir, please come with me."
Although he said he was asking for an invitation, there was actually no hint of invitation in his tone. However, Wu Ming had already made a plan, and naturally he would not care about anything with the officers, but followed these people into the car in cooperation.
"Mr. Wu, you..." Mike was about to say something else, but Wu Ming gave him a no-worry look, and then the car rumbled into gear and drove out of the base.
On the way, few people said a word, and Wu Ming also looked at the scenery outside. The car drove for more than half an hour, passed through several checkpoints, and arrived at another larger base.
Here, Wu Ming even saw rows of new armored tanks full of murderous aura, and they seemed to be newly produced. There were also soldiers wearing mechanical exoskeleton armors patrolling here, showing a murderous aura.
