Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 235: Be quiet

"Is it not possible even if Sun Zeyuan said he wanted to see you?"

Zhang Xin stood in front of Lawrence, very respectful, without any airs of a scout-level powerhouse.

Lawrence, with his legs crossed, took a moment to drink his coffee before glancing at the left and right hands of the former city lord.

"I knew about the killing of Jamukha by the two of you that day. I'm still waiting for Sun Zeyuan to come and explain. What's the point of sending you here?"

"Sun Zeyuan is Commander Chen's man. If you disrespect him, you are disrespecting me."

"Forget it. Not to mention that your Commander Chen is older than me. The emperor is far away, how can he really control us?"

"But……"

"No problem. I asked him to come to your house. You should be glad that I won't reveal the secret. He didn't even pay me hush money, and yet he still dared to ask me to come to your house..."

"Are you relying on the two of you who have just been promoted to the scout level? Ridiculous, ridiculous. Don't forget that the medicine you used to poison the city lord was bought from my subordinates. It is a scarce commodity."

Lawrence put down the still steaming coffee, raised his head, but turned around without even looking at it:
"Come here, see the guests off!"

"But Sun Zeyuan said that he passed the assassination team's assessment. He asked us to convey this to you."

"Assassination team?"

Lawrence was stunned. He was very familiar with the assassination team, which specialized in helping the boss eliminate dissidents within the organization. They had the power to execute any member of the team first and report later to any city lord.

Zhang Xin and Wu Lei couldn't help but be a little surprised to see Lawrence like this. It seemed that this assassination team had a very important status in the "world", and even such a scout-level strongman had to bow down to them.

"In that case, I can consider meeting him. Anyway, what proof did Sun Zeyuan give you? After all, none of the members of the assassination team is lower than the scout level..."

Lawrence suddenly stopped talking halfway and looked out the window towards the city lord's building with an expression of disbelief.

He suddenly felt a breath of surprise coming from there, which doubled his pressure.

As Yuanze returned to reality, a wave of waves spread out like ripples, with himself as the center.

At this time, all the source warriors of NM02 looked up at the center where the city lord's building was located.

There, a surge of momentum was rising from the ground, suppressing everyone else so that they could not move.

This aura caused those Source Warriors who possessed domains to subconsciously open their domains to fight against this pressure, but except for a very few, the others were still suppressed to the ground by this powerful aura.

Lawrence and the two people in front of him also expanded their fields, and were able to maintain a certain degree of composure under this pressure.

Obviously, Lawrence was more at ease. After he expanded his domain, he almost completely got rid of Yuanze's influence.

However, this was enough to frighten him. The scope of this area was too large, almost covering the entire Mechanical City.

Although NM02 Mechanical City is the smallest among the Mechanical Cities, it is still too exaggerated.

"Is this the Sun Zeyuan?"

"I think...it must be...him..."

"Well, I want to see him, right now!"

The aura on Lawrence's body also increased suddenly, asking them to withdraw their own domains, and then helping them to isolate the aura of Yuanze's domain so that they could send out their requests.

The storm brought the city to a standstill for nearly ten minutes before everyone recovered from the stress.

At this time, Lawrence had already arrived at Yuanze's room, and the two had started chatting about things.

"Sun Zeyuan, I never thought that the assassination team would actually recruit someone who is not even at the ninth level of Nirvana. If you didn't have the captain's certificate, I would never believe it." "Maybe they saw my extraordinary talent."

Yuanze did not continue to pester her and asked his own question:
"I see that you are very strong, at the level of a sixth-level scout. How come you are still a dungeon master?"

"It's not easy to join the assassination team. I'm already quite old and don't have much potential. You know, they're all young monsters, and the captain is a Star Awareness-level warrior."

"potential?"

"Yes, in fact, the realm where you were promoted to the Nirvana level just now has already proved your potential. Don't look at my high level. I am old and only have 70% to 80% of my peak strength."

"Let's talk about something related to the Mechanical City."

"Okay, I thought so too."

The two chatted a lot about dungeon masters.

There is one rule: the dungeon lord must swear to live and die with the mechanical city and must not cowardly escape, otherwise he will be hunted down by the assassination team.
And having said that, NM01's beast tide actually killed four scout-level warriors.

"So I thought you were a member sent by the organization to supervise me in the battle, but don't worry, I won't be a deserter. Of course, all dungeon masters have this awareness."

"What do you mean?"

Yuanze felt that this rule was very strange. Why should a stranger ask them to risk their lives for a city?

"Actually, it's like this..."

The boss and the captain of the assassination team are both Chinese. These two people recruited many overseas people who were desperate in China and then founded it.

Of course, they were all wanted in China because their identities as spies were exposed.

Those who disobeyed discipline were all eliminated by the assassination team. After this happened many times, everyone became obedient.

Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief and ended his explanation:
"It's really different from what I thought, but that doesn't matter. As long as you can use me, just give me a shout."

His demands are not very high, he just wants to maintain the existing order.

Since it was the members of the assassination squad who took over the city, they had nothing to say.

"Then I don't have any request. I have taken over the city now, but Jamukha is dead. I need you to help me block the bullets a lot of the time. Is that okay?"

"No problem, no problem!"

Zhang Xin and Wu Lei recalled the arrogant look on his face just now, and then looked at him bowing down to his master, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Lawrence is such a ridiculous character.

As they were thinking, Yuanze suddenly turned around and glared at them, as if he could see through their emotions.
They lowered their heads and dared not have any more unreasonable thoughts

Yuanze now doesn't need to deliberately perceive other people's thoughts, he can know what people around him are thinking, and it's not the superficial emotions, but specific words.

Their brain waves are like those of a baby in front of their own brain area, with no power to resist.

If used in battle, all of the opponent's thoughts would undoubtedly be revealed.

"Okay, I'll stop here now."

Yuanze felt that things were almost done, so he waved to Lawrence to leave.

Lawrence glanced at the two of them again, then walked out of the room.
