A man in the ark was forced to become a king

“Syracuse was their roots.”

Lin Lu felt something was wrong as soon as the words came out of her mouth, and she understood immediately after hearing Texas' words.

With so many people, it’s impossible for everyone to be an orphan, right?They must be worried about their relatives and friends. Where else can they go if they don't go back to Syracuse?

"Then they're probably dead."

After understanding the reason, Lin Lu stopped paying attention to those people. To him, it didn't matter whether these minions ran away or not. There was a wrongdoer and a debtor, and all he was looking for was Daximi.

Of course, even if they ran away, they wouldn't be able to get out. Such unscrupulous pursuit of Texas in the lower city had seriously violated the Rat King's rules.

The gray forest is not easy to mess with.

"I thought you would sympathize with them."

Texas suddenly said something, which made Lin Lu look startled.

"Maybe, but that doesn't mean I will let Daximi go because they let him go. Daximi must die tonight, and no one can save him."

Are you kidding? Does he, Lin, look like a good person?

There may be a little bit of sympathy, but only a little bit. He has never been a holy mother, and it is impossible to let the enemy go because of inexplicable sympathy.

Lin Lu shook her head and laughed, then kicked Daximi on the ground. The pain made him grin and glare.

"Since he didn't say anything, there's no point keeping it. If you don't use this opportunity, I'll do it myself."

"It's just a knife."

Texas shook his head slightly and looked at Daximi with indifferent eyes, as if he didn't take this person seriously at all.

"Killing him here would get you in trouble, and I don't want to get in trouble."

"Okay, then I'll do it myself."

She was unwilling to take action, and Lin Lu didn't care either. She held the sword in one hand, pouring spiritual power from the hilt, and the orange-red sword blade popped out again.

"Asshole! How do you know I didn't tell you!"

Seeing that the lightsaber was about to fall on his neck, Daximi trembled, her pupils shrank, and she screamed in fear.

He didn't expect that this stunned Qing was really going to kill him here, and he couldn't hold himself any longer. It was obvious that those people had been knocked unconscious before, and even the most seriously injured ones were still alive. Why did they start killing him when they got here? Are you determined?

During the time he came to Longmen, he also understood the rules of the slums. When he killed people in public, wasn't he afraid of making the 'Rat King' dissatisfied?

"You're so tight-lipped and haven't said anything yet. Doesn't it mean you don't plan to say anything anymore?"

With a playful smile on Lin Lu's lips, the sword blade stopped in mid-air and came to an abrupt stop, just shy of cutting into Daximi's neck.

"You're such a bitch for asking! You didn't ask anything about what I said! How do you know I didn't say anything even if you didn't even ask!"

Hearing this, Daximi's mentality almost collapsed. You came up and slapped me with a harsh words without asking anything. You also said that I didn't plan to say anything? !

If you want me to speak, you should ask!How can I explain it to you without asking a single question?

"Didn't I ask?"

Lin Lu blinked and looked at Texas.

"I asked, but he didn't answer."

The black wolf girl answered in a serious manner, with no hint of joking.

"Look, I just said that I asked. If you don't want to say it and act tough, then you don't blame me."

Spreading her hands, Lin Lu raised her lightsaber, making a move to seal his throat with one strike.

"You call that a question?!"

Daximi was shocked, and her brain was running at an unprecedented speed. Finally, before the sword blade touched her flesh, she finally heard what Lin Lu had asked, and she quickly shouted: "I will say! I will say anything!"

"Aren't you tough anymore?"

The orange-red sword blade left small traces of blood on the skin, almost slitting his throat.

Lin Lu looked at him with a half-smile, retracted the sword blade, turned the hilt in a circle in her hand, narrowed her eyes, and a faint cold light flashed through her eyes.

"No, no! I say, I say it all! But you have to promise not to kill me!"

"Don't worry, as long as you make it clear, I won't continue to attack you. This matter ends here."

"Guru~"

The blade disappeared, and after receiving Lin Lu's promise, Daximi swallowed subconsciously. Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, half from fear and half from pain. Her face became increasingly pale due to the wounds on her back and shoulders.

But he didn't dare to delay any longer. With such a stupid young man by his side, God knows what he could do if he continued to delay.

"It's like this, I—"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped! ...

A series of physical blows suddenly sounded, interrupting Daximi's words, followed by noisy footsteps.

Several shadows shrouded in black cloaks quietly appeared behind the remaining Syracusans and quickly knocked them to the ground. A dozen or so people came running from the other side of the corridor where Daximi and others ran. The man wearing a black turban, sunglasses, and a vest looked like a member of a gang at first glance.

The law enforcer of Lower City, directly under the 'Rat King' - Gray Tail.

Chapter 25 Weeds can also be useful as long as they are placed in the right place

Seeing the appearance of the gray tails, a bright light appeared in Dashimi's eyes, and she swallowed back what she was about to say.

The slums are a lawless place behind the prosperity of Longmen. The laws of Longmen are useless in the slums, but they have their own rules here.

The Rat King is the uncrowned king of the entire Longmen underground world. His existence is the rule.

He said the slums allowed fighting, so the chaos in downtown continues to this day.

He said that killing people at will is not allowed, so no one would dare to violate it.

Of course, the actual situation is much more complicated, and many rules are not put on paper, but everyone who comes here understands it tacitly. Except for the truly vicious desperadoes, few people dare to cross that line.

After all, those who commit crimes in Shangcheng District will only be arrested and tried by the Guards Bureau. If they offend the Rat King, they will only die, and it will be a very tragic death.

Daximi knew very well that what he had done in Longmen these days had violated taboos.

But if it is the Rat King who captures him, there is still some room for maneuver. Behind him is the Lucchese family, one of the twelve families of Syracuse. Even the Rat King has to be wary, so he fell into the hands of the Rat King. He still has a chance to survive - as long as the price paid is enough.

No matter what, it was much better than betting on a guy who just wanted to kill him.

Now that Gray Tail has arrived, the helpers the little wolf cub has hired must also take into account the Rat King's reputation, right?

As he was thinking this, he heard Lin Lu's indifferent voice coming from above his head: "Everyone, Mr. Wei wants his life."

"Master Wei?"

In Longmen, there is no second person who can be honored as 'Master Wei'.

The gray tails paused their movements and looked at each other in confusion. One of the gray tails, who was completely covered in a black cloak, took a step forward and asked in a deep voice: "Do you have any proof?"

"There's no warrant or anything, but someone can prove it."

Lin Lu looked across Texas to the corner not far away where a lot of debris was piled up, and waved her hand: "Brother in the dark, come out and testify?"

"..."

In the dark corner of the night, the black raincoat emerged quietly, without saying a word, just nodded slightly, and then disappeared into the shadows again.

"Since Mr. Wei wants it, you can keep this person, and we will take the others away."

Seeing the appearance of the black raincoat, Gray Tail's pupils shrank, he nodded slowly, not daring to ask any more questions, and waved for others to continue. Their movements were very fast, and it didn't take long for all the Lupers lying on the ground to be packed up and dragged away. He was carried by the Gray Tails and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

"I guessed it right, but it's a pity that idiot Snake missed it."

Seeing her life-saving straw leave, Daximi's tense pale face suddenly relaxed, she smiled self-deprecatingly, and took the initiative to explain without Lin Lu saying anything.

In fact, this matter is not complicated at all. The descendants of Texas left Syracuse, which gave some old enemies of the Texas family who had tacitly agreed upon an opportunity to do something. What, the Lucchese family is one of them.

But those are all old things. If there is anything that cannot be let go, there is nothing. The Lucchese family sent their own partners to hunt down Texas. In fact, it was just a matter of convenience and they did not invest too much in this aspect. Mental strength, otherwise Texas would never be able to run to the gantry.

The reason why so many things happened in Longmen is mostly due to Daximi himself. Although the current boss of the Lucchese family doesn't care much about this matter, this time is already rare for him. Chance.

He needs to rely on this merit to seek a higher position in the family. A killer like him who has done a lot of dirty work for the family cannot stay in his current position. He must either climb up or... because No value is disposed of in secret.

Daximi didn't want to die and wanted to climb to a higher position, so he could only hope to complete this mission beautifully and prove his worth to the family.

Originally, they wanted to keep a low profile, but due to an accident, not only did they fail to find traces of Texas immediately, but they were also targeted by the Longmen Guards Bureau because of what another group of people did. This made Daximi was quite angry. After several days of investigation, she finally found some clues. Following the clues, she found the stronghold where the group was hiding in the clothing store, and directly destroyed it with the Originium bomb that she carried with her when she smuggled into Longmen. .

He did this in order to retaliate and at the same time attract the energy of the Guards Bureau. Then he met Lin Lu's action. After getting the information, Daximi's mind became hot and he came up with the bad idea of ​​sending a killer.

The basis is that Chen has the blood of a dragon and holds a powerful weapon, so he must be quite important in Longmen. However, Lin Lu, who was familiar with her, was just borrowing it at the time and did not have such a weapon in his hand. He was still in the Guards Bureau even though he held the artifact. Chen is much more hands-on at work. As long as Lin Lu is killed, Chen will definitely become furious and occupy more energy of the Guard Bureau.

It sounds unreasonable, filled with a lot of personal speculation and basically illogical, but that's what Dashimi did at the time.

Lin Lu’s evaluation of this is...

"Cerebral palsy."

Lin Lu thought about it and found that it was difficult for her to give any positive comments about Daximi's bad idea and strange brain circuit. No wonder this man was still a killer in Syracuse from a teenager to middle age. With his IQ, In a place like Syracuse, where gangs are prevalent, it is not easy to survive until now without dying from conspiracy.

"You said you wouldn't kill me as long as I answer your questions."

After finishing everything he knew, Daximi's voice became weak, probably due to excessive blood loss, but she still tried to keep her eyes open, with obvious reluctance and expectation in her eyes.

He doesn't want to die, he doesn't want to die here, even if there is a slight possibility, he is not willing to give up.

"Do you really want to live?"

After getting the news she wanted, Lin Lu originally didn't plan to care about him - as long as she left him alone, Daximi would die of excessive blood loss in a few minutes, which did not violate her promise not to continue taking action.

But now he has temporarily changed his mind. Although Daximi is not very good and his IQ is not very high, he has one characteristic - he wants to live more than anyone else.

In order to survive, he will do whatever it takes.

This kid... this kind of person might be able to be deceived into making some contribution to the still immature Little Golden Tree. It just so happens that his brain is not very good, so it shouldn't be difficult to deceive him.

"think."

Seeing that Lin Lu really had no intention of taking action, the desire in Daximi's eyes became even stronger.

"Let me live so I can do things for you!"

Chapter 26 What bad intentions could there be in the golden tree’s blessing?

Since it is a plant, it needs nutrients to grow. Even the golden tree is no exception in this regard. However, unlike ordinary grass and trees, the golden tree does not need to absorb nutrients from the soil to grow, but needs something deeper - life. soul and body.

Lin Lu didn't know much about the more ancient past, but he still knew a lot about the growth mechanism of the golden tree.

In the past of the junction, when the Golden Law was still glorious, the existence of the golden tree was the core that dominated the cycle of life in the junction.

Creatures who believe in the Golden Tree will return to the Golden Tree after death through the ritual of 'Returning to the Tree'. The power contained in their bodies and souls during life will become the nutrients for the growth of the Golden Tree. After returning to the Tree, they will be purified into the most primitive and most primitive form. A pure soul washes away all the past and then returns to the world as a brand new individual.

The golden tree obtains nutrients and strengthens itself through the return of life to the tree, and at the same time it spreads its own power so that new life can survive longer.

During the heyday of the Golden Dynasty, the power of the Golden Tree was brilliant and powerful. Within its coverage, all reincarnations of life were controlled by it, directly replacing the 'Death Fire' of the long past.

This can be regarded as an exchange, a cycle of life. The golden tree needs to survive in this way. The creatures who believe in the golden tree also rely on the golden tree to obtain stronger power and longer lifespan.

As for whether this method is good or bad, Lin Lu will not comment.

The words of one family cannot represent everyone. When he broke into the border area, the Elden Ring had long since collapsed, and the demigods were fighting with each other, leaving only a devastated land. What he saw was indeed the bad side of the Golden Law.

But before the dharma ring collapsed, the people of the Golden Dynasty were living a prosperous life, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. No one felt that was bad.

Therefore, he could not judge right or wrong in this matter. In other words, the golden tree itself had no will. It was just a tool and a dead object. Without the beast of Elden inhabiting it, it would not even have a clear will. There will be, whether it is right or wrong, in the end it will be blamed on the person who controls it.

And he has no position to judge. Now if he wants to make the little golden tree he brought grow quickly enough to be able to reshape his body, he will inevitably use the same method.

Lin Lu couldn't guarantee whether his idea was correct or whether his method was effective. After all, returning to the tree was a rule of the Golden Law at the border. He did not have the Ring of Elden in his hand now. Could it be specific? Yes, you won’t know until you try it.

It's just that since he came to this world, he has always stayed in Longmen. Out of the desire to not get into trouble when his strength declined, let alone killing people, even hurting people was a very rare case. Until today, he was the first This is the first real shot, so naturally there is no way to verify the conjecture.

The emergence of Daximi is undoubtedly an opportunity.

Originally, Lani's awakening made Lin Lu feel more anxious about cultivating the golden tree. It just so happened that at this time, he didn't know whether to live or die and ran into the muzzle of the gun. If he wasn't unlucky, who would be?

Anyway, he brought it upon himself. Lin Lu didn't feel any psychological pressure at all by using the enemy as a guinea pig.

-------------------------------------

"I can let you go back to Syracuse, and I will give you stronger power."

After parting ways with Texas, it was already midnight after returning to her residence from the slums. Seeing that the lights upstairs were still dark, Lin Lu knew that Chen was probably still working overtime at the Guard Bureau and had no time to come back.

He had no intention of taking Daximi up, so he stopped downstairs and began to fool this Syracuse killer who was not very bright-minded.
