Pretending To Be A Boss

Li Zheng took out his phone and opened the interface of a certain app.

"Now, many large corporations and wealthy families have started offering a bounty on your head! The price is not low at all!"

Tang Xian couldn't help but think that Li Zheng might be a fool as he asked in confusion,

"They're after the Masked Chopper Hero, what does that have to do with me, Tang?"

Li Zheng paused for a moment, then laughed,

"Hahaha, that's right, that's right."

His gaze shifted to Akasi, probing,

"Is this..."

Tang Xian answered, "He's a member of my team, Akasi. But for some reasons, let's just call him Tang from now on."

Li Zheng nodded, indicating he understood.

Akasi also got some information from Tang Xian. Li Zheng wanted to see what Akasi was capable of.

This was understandable. In business terms, this was like quality inspection. Akasi took it naturally.

Without even waiting for Li Zheng to urge him, Akasi's figure flashed, and a breeze arose from nowhere.

Somewhat inexplicably, a gun appeared in Akasi's hand.

It was a blue-armed expansion remodel, somewhat resembling a Desert Eagle.

Li Zheng was startled; that was his own sidearm. The distance between him and Akasi was clearly about four meters.

He hadn't seen clearly what just happened.

"Truly powerful! Fantastic!" Li Zheng was excited.

Li Zheng's guards quickly reacted, immediately raising their weapons to aim at Akasi.

Li Zheng waved his hand, signaling that all was well.

At that moment, Akasi aimed the gun at Tang Xian.

Tang Xian had no reaction, simply nodding calmly as he met Akasi's gaze.

Li Zheng was taken aback, just about to say that the gun was powerful and no joke to be made, when Akasi pulled the trigger.

An ear-piercing sound rang out, and Li Zheng's expression froze in a moment of terror.

But in his line of sight, nothing changed, except that Akasi's position had moved forward slightly.

He held a bullet between his fingers, the one that had been fired from the chamber, smoking from the heat, but unable to burn Akasi's skin.

Tang Xian wasn't visibly worried that Akasi would actually shoot him.

But deep down, he was somewhat amazed.

It had only been a couple of days since the serious injury in the Evolution Zone, and he had almost completely recovered.

Such terrifying self-healing abilities, along with the reaction speed and ability to catch bullets with bare hands—if he didn't have those strange forces inside his body,

then probably the Evolution Zone would gradually take over the world in the coming years.

"Spectacular! It's breathtaking! I never expected to see such incredible speed inside the Pyramid! Truly worthy of..."

Li Zheng stopped mid-sentence, feeling that the term "experimental subject" seemed somewhat disrespectful to Akasi.

A man in his position appreciated all kinds of talented individuals.

Military strength was also a kind of talent.

Li Zheng was eagerly looking forward to what kind of help the duo of Tang Xian and Akasi could bring to the Li family.

Akasi handed the gun back to Li Zheng, who had intended to give it to Akasi as a gesture,

But then again, this thing wasn't as fast as Akasi's fists, was it? Like a toy, it seemed too petty, not worth giving away.

Akasi remained silent throughout. Different from his interactions with Qiao Shanshan and Tang Xian, Akasi seemed more like a killer right now.

Tang Xian said,

"Before you go, take Dr. Duke with you. He will be useful to you."

Li Zheng's expression became complex as he said,

"That's... Right now he might not be in a state to meet people. My sister will take him to Fortress Thirty-Nine later."

Tang Xian didn't understand.

Li Zheng said softly,

"It's because you went to the mining area, and she was bored, so she went to see that prisoner. And well… my sister has always liked cutting various things since she was little…"

Tang Xian understood and realized why Li Xiaoyu wasn't present. He felt a bit of sympathy for Dr. Duke.

In the sixth school year, while other children went to the great library, flipping through books like "Three Years of Survival, Five Years of Simulation,"

Those with a literary bent might look at ancient literary works like "Cancer Tower" or "Suet Ball."

Tang Xian read a bit of everything, as he remembered what he read after just one glance.

Li Xiaoyu's taste was probably the most bizarre.

He remembered the expression of the librarian when Li Xiaoyu was returning books.

A twelve-year-old girl returning books like "The Evolution of Ancient Punishments," "Nineteen Techniques of Court Punishments," and "Modern Anatomy." It was inevitably a bit horrifying.

Tang Xian shook his head. Just another strange hobby of the wealthy.

Realizing he hadn't seen Ke in a long time and that his chopper couldn't be used anymore because of this incident, Tang Xian urgently needed a new, truly combat-ready weapon. He urged,

"Let's not delay any further. Let's go."
