Chapter 193
The third floor.
Kurita suddenly pushed away the old woman with a gloomy expression in front of him, and his fat body broke through the window with unlimited flexibility, and he stumbled out.
Broken glass was stuck in his body and countless cuts were bleeding. Kurita, who had never suffered such a torture, couldn't help crying while running, and at the same time, even greater fear surged in his heart.
——What were those guys talking about just now? How dare they… How dare they plan to attack Lord Ryuka? Don’t they want to live?
Kurita didn't know what kind of person Ryoka was, but he knew how terrible the man who had always been at the top of Ryokasao was, and what kind of revenge and attack would be suffered by those who betrayed him. The most important thing was...
——I am now the captain of the Ryukasao, what can you use to win me over? This is ridiculous... I, Kurita Yu, am not that kind of person... Lord Ryuka... When Lord Ryuka knows your plan, none of you will survive!
Kurita thought resentfully in his heart, but still couldn't suppress his inner panic.
He was originally invited to visit an old and venerable artist, Mrs. Moribai, who invited him to appreciate her new paintings. Although Kurita was the ship owner, such an invitation was an honor for him, so he came without hesitation. To show respect, his subordinates stayed outside, and he only brought a bodyguard who was never far away.
Only half of that person is left now.
After he entered the room, he did not see the so-called paintings, but was greeted by a terrible news. Although Kurita had escaped from the house, he knew that he was far from safe, because the building was full of their people.
This is the bottom floor of the third-floor high-end residential building. Ignoring its height, it looks like a very large courtyard that is close to nature. There are various wooden buildings in the courtyard, and long corridors connect them. The garden in the middle is elegant and quiet, and the crisp sound of birds can be heard from time to time.
But Kurita had no time to appreciate it, nor to think about why no one was chasing him. He ran in a panic, the fat on his chubby body constantly slowing down his pace and making him sweat profusely.
He ran out of the corridor and saw seven or eight young men in the spacious courtyard near the gate. They were practicing some ancient martial arts to enhance their physical fitness. They were all surprised to see him running out covered in blood.
Kurita gathered his strength, roared, and rushed forward like a wild boar, pushing the people in front of him. These people probably didn't know what their master was planning, and they were in awe of his identity as the ship owner, so even though they could subdue Kurita with one hand, they hurriedly dodged when he rushed over, and did not stop him, allowing Kurita to rush to the gate smoothly.
Rush out the door and take the elevator...the surveillance camera in the elevator will put him back under Ochi's watchful eyes, and then he will be safe.
Kurita felt a little relieved and rushed to the door, when someone suddenly walked in. He was startled and looked closely, and it turned out to be his assistant and lover Lin Lin.
“Linlin!”
Kurita was delighted to see his people, and then he hurriedly pulled Linlin's hand and said, "Quick! Come with me! Madam Moribai is going to rebel!"
But when he pulled, he couldn't move it.
Kurita looked over and saw Lin Lin looking at him with a complex expression that included pity, disgust and guilt.
"Sir, are you really loyal only to Ryuka?"
“Lin…Linlin…”
“Bang!”
Lin Lin raised his foot and kicked Kurita in the stomach, sending him flying. Then he fell heavily to the ground, holding his stomach and curling up like a shrimp, unable to speak in such pain.
Through the hazy tears, Kurita saw Linlin shouting at Mrs. Moribai who was walking out slowly, "Grandma!"
"Yes." Mrs. Moribai, with her full head of white hair, nodded, then pointed at Kurita Yu on the ground and said to the others, "Tie him up."
"yes!"
Although the other people in the yard didn't understand what was going on, they immediately stepped forward and tied Kurita up tightly. They also gave him an injection to prevent him from accidentally dying from serious injuries.
Kurita You lay on the ground, spitting blood, looking at Lin Lin in despair, then slowly closed his eyes.
Seventeenth floor.
The ship owner Lloyd was a very handsome man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He looked a little melancholy. He looked very young because he had no beard. His dark black hair was meticulously combed back his head, and there was not a single wrinkle on his straight dark blue uniform.
Compared to him, his son Edie, although handsome, seems too childish.
At this moment, the handsome and cute boy was lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly. He might have had a sweet dream, with a sweet smile on his face.
His head rested on the girl's thighs. The elf-like girl lowered her head and looked at his sleeping face tenderly. She poked his face playfully with her fingers. This picture full of pink bubbles seemed like a scene from an idol drama.
But Lloyd's eyes were very cold.
Because the girl's other hand was holding a syringe, which had just been pulled out from the side of her son's neck.
Aphra stroked Edie's soft hair, tilted her head, looked at Lloyd with a lovely smile, and asked softly, "Have you thought it through? Will you choose your only son whom you have cared for for twenty years, or General Mapu who has been so kind to you?"
First floor.
This is the competition floor of Liukasao. There are three large arenas in the whole ship, and there are dozens or even hundreds of small arenas underground. Hundreds of competitions are held here every day, including human vs. human, human vs. animal, human vs. machine, mecha vs. mecha, etc. The video of the competition will be broadcast live on Starnet. Audiences can buy tickets to enter the live broadcast room and place bets on the players they like.
Some of the contestants in the arena are criminals from all levels of Liukasao, and some of them have been sentenced to thousands of years in prison. Before the game, the host will explain their crimes, and they will not be held responsible if they kill their opponents during the game. At the same time, these people cannot choose what kind of arena they will appear in or what opponents they will face. If they can win consecutive games and survive by chance, their sentences can be reduced.
Some of the players are from the lower class and homeless people who come from poor backgrounds and rely on their own strength. They sign a contract with the arena, which stipulates how many games they need to complete in a month, and they have certain rights of choice and a commission from the games. If they encounter life-threatening situations on the field, the referee can stop the game immediately, and there is a medical team on standby at any time. Of course, they have to pay for the treatment themselves. But accidents are everywhere, and death can still come at any time.
In addition, there are some contestants who sign up for adventurers on their own. The regulations for them are much more relaxed and the commission rate is higher. Many adventurers will choose to try their hand here when they come to Liukasao.
Here, the streets are full of fierce warriors with murderous looks on their faces. Even the female adventurers are strong and sturdy, and you can see many races famous for their fighting power. Some timid people who come to the first floor will be scared and run back without even being able to step out of the traffic control office.
Rong Yuan looked at the small restaurant in front of him called Dacheng Restaurant, lifted the door curtain and walked in.
The food sold in the restaurant is similar to Earth Hot Pot. In a pot that is so big that an adult can't even hold it with both arms outstretched, various ingredients are boiling. There is a layer of red oil on the surface of the water, and the whole house is filled with a pungent spicy smell. There are quite a few diners eating, and everyone is sweating profusely.
A square-faced man came up to us and asked while wiping his hands with a rag: "Hello, how are you? What would you like to eat?"
"I'm looking for someone."
Rong Yuan looked around and saw a man sitting in the corner eating, so he walked towards him.
"Why do we meet here?" Rong Yuan asked.
The man looked up at him, wiped his mouth, stretched his neck, swallowed everything in his mouth with a gulp, and then said, "Two of my former brothers are playing in the arena here. They signed a contract. It's a bit troublesome for them to leave. I'll take care of it."
It was Yin Mu who spoke.
The identity of the Chief of the Fighting Department is useful on other levels of the ship, but on the first level he might be stabbed in the back, so he made some disguises this time, but in Rong Yuan's eyes it was still a bit crude and he could recognize it at a glance.
He looked haggard, his eyes were red and dark, and it was obvious that he had been too busy for the past two days and had not slept well, and perhaps he had cried several times. But he was in high spirits and smiled when he spoke.
Old Xia and the others all returned to his side, knowing that these old brothers had never left him, Yinmu was excited and happy during this period, and was also full of gratitude to Rongyuan. However, the experience of these old brothers made him heartbroken and angry.
Rong Yuan knew all these things, but he also knew that he and Yin Mu were not close enough to communicate, so he just ignored Yin Mu's strange expression and pushed a small black box to him.
"Here is the information you requested. Make sure it is absolutely safe before checking it later."
"I know." Yinmu put it in his pocket. In order to prevent Aoqi from collecting any information through the store's surveillance, he did not mention it again. Instead, he said, "Would you like to eat something together? The soup base in this store is pretty good, much better than Lao Xia's food."
"No, thank you." Rong Yuan said, "I have something to remind you."
"you say."
"They should have known about it . But they may not be aware that you are involved."
Yinmu paused while picking up the food, then nodded calmly and said, "Old Xia has said it before. The opponent should not be underestimated, not to mention..." He glanced at the surveillance cameras in the store and said, "... and that one. No matter how careful we are, we can't completely hide it from their eyes."
He lowered his head while eating and said, "Don't worry that I will go back on my word or betray you. Now that I know what they did to my brother, I will never let it go. Even if you weren't here, I would go find them myself!"
"I know." Rong Yuan nodded and said, "I just want to remind you to be careful when you act. You may encounter more enemies than you expected. If it is really dangerous, protect yourself first ."
Yin Mu said: "Don't worry, I can do my job well. The real danger is still on your side..."
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a loud noise in the store. They turned their heads at the same time and saw a person who had just flown in from the door crashing into a dining table, breaking the table in half. The pot rolled out, and the boiling soup and cooking oil splashed on the person. But the person covered in blood lay on the ground motionless, and it was unknown whether he was still alive.
