Chapter 202
Baili Yun lay under the corpse, not daring to breathe.
The battle lasted less than ten minutes, and a large number of people in the conference room had already died. Those "big shots" who used to be famous and would basically clear out a street when they traveled, now died no better than anyone else. The bodies were stacked together, horizontally, vertically, broken into several pieces, with punctured intestines and rotten stomachs, and incomplete. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and a strange stench. Baili Yun wanted to vomit and cry, but at this time he could only desperately hold it in, not daring to move a little finger.
Todd suddenly attacked Mapu and fought fiercely, but after a long time of bullets and fire, the two well-prepared people were fine, but almost all the others died - no matter which side they stood on. Baili Yun didn't know if they noticed his action of hiding under the table, but he had a vague feeling in his heart - when they cleaned up afterwards, I'm afraid no one would leave him as a survivor and witness.
The sadness in his heart was like a river flowing backwards, and the fear was boundless. Even if Baili Yun didn't wear makeup now, his face would be no different from that of a dead person.
As for escaping during the chaos?
There might have been a chance at the beginning of the melee, but at that time Baili Yun was afraid that Todd would detonate the nanorobot bomb in his body, so he did not dare to leave without permission. Now... even if he wanted to escape, there was no way.
Because just two minutes ago, two teams broke into the room at different times. Their arrival accelerated the death of everyone. Some people who barely relied on the protective clothing on their bodies to hold on until now were almost killed. Only a few close associates from both sides were still alive.
One of the two teams was the elite fighting department controlled by Mapu, and the other was the supervisory department under Todd. Although they were not numerous, they were all wearing the latest micro-combat mechas of Liukasao. The destructive power of one person was equivalent to that of a land combat legion.
Fortunately, they were now on a spaceship, and both sides had their reservations. Therefore, although the conference room had been destroyed beyond recognition, and the solid and sturdy table had long been broken into eight pieces, Baili Yun, who was hiding underneath, was lucky enough to be safe and sound.
But he knew very well that this security was only a temporary illusion and could not last long.
Suddenly, the screams and roars outside stopped. Baili Yun was extremely curious, but did not dare to look up.
After a few seconds, he heard Mapu say with satisfaction with a smile: "You are worthy of being the child I raised since childhood... As expected, you knew what I was going to do from the beginning."
"Don't say such disgusting things!" Todd said coldly, "Since you knew everything before but didn't do anything to me, you wanted to use me to clean up Liukasao openly."
"Yes, these borers have been corroding the big tree of Liukasao for too long. I am just collecting a little interest now." Mapu said with relief: "If we get rid of them, everything these guys have accumulated over the years will be in my hands, and Liukasao will become purer. This is the most perfect result. And you, Todd, you are indeed my most outstanding disciple. Although we didn't say a word before, you still cooperated with my actions very well."
Upon hearing this, Yinmu looked at Todd in shock, subconsciously took two steps back, and took a defensive posture towards both parties in front of him.
Todd didn't pay attention to his actions. He just sneered and said to Mapu: "Don't get me wrong. I just don't like these guys. So I want to get rid of them before I kill you."
Mapp sighed.
"Why did it have to come to this, Ade?"
His expression was filled with fatigue.
"You know best how I have treated you over the years. Even if you are my own son... it's no more than this. I care about you, take care of you, and trust you more than anyone else. Ade, when your parents abandoned you, I raised you single-handedly, and trained you from an ignorant child to the outstanding person you are today. Yes, some things in the past... I can admit that I was wrong. I was too rough and simple in my thinking and didn't take your feelings into consideration. So now you resent me and even want to kill me, I can understand and forgive you. Ade, as long as you are willing to look back, I can let bygones be bygones for today, and I can also speak for you with Lord Ryuka. After today, the position of the General Director of the Supervisory Department is still yours... No, if you don't like staying in the Supervisory Department anymore, you can choose any other position... Come back, child."
Lloyd, who was standing not far from Map, raised his eyebrows slightly. He looked at Map with a sincere expression, then squinted at Todd .
Davalo bit her lip, with jealousy that was hard to suppress but still obvious on her face, and looked at Todd hatefully.
And Yin Mu... the weapon in his hand fell unconsciously, and he thought: No matter what kind of character this guy Mapu is, he is really good to Todd... Although he is a nasty guy...
If he were Todd, and if the Emperor of the Northern Republic treated him half as well as Mapu treated Todd... no, even if it was only one-tenth, after hearing these words, he would have surely knelt down and admitted his mistake by now.
Baili Yun bit his thumb nervously and blinked his eyes. He had a feeling that the melee was about to end. He was nervously calculating what expression he should use to beg for mercy.
Leslie secretly glanced at his boss who was protected by everyone behind him, and then he focused on guarding the front. His idea was very simple - if Todd said he wanted to fight, then he would continue to fight; if Todd wanted to bow his head, then he would continue to be the inspector of the Supervision Department!
As for what they said about clearing up and the past, which shocked everyone, Leslie didn't take it to heart at all, and didn't listen seriously. Anyway, no matter what, he had to follow Master Todd...
Everyone was waiting for Todd's reaction.
But Todd seemed to be struggling in his heart, hesitating for a long time and not saying anything. His face was hidden behind the armor, and people could not see what his expression was at this moment.
A confident smile gradually appeared on Mapu's face.
Others thought Todd was still hesitating or holding back, but Mapp didn't think so. In his opinion, if Todd flatly refused or even took action at the beginning, then there would be no room for negotiation between the two sides. But as long as he hesitated, it meant that he was wavering; the longer he hesitated, the less likely he would take action.
In fact, Mapp was a little touched by himself. Thinking about it carefully, the person he had spent a lot of effort to cultivate and guard against over the years was really only Todd. So what he said just now was sincere and not false.
Of course... whether or not to settle accounts afterwards is another matter.
Everyone waited for a long time, but Todd didn't speak, and their expressions became a little strange. For example, Baili Yun secretly thought: Does Todd feel that it is a bit embarrassing to bow his head like this... or does he think he can be arrogant because of his favor... ahem, what, is he taking the opportunity to raise the price and waiting for Mapu to give him a better offer?
Obviously, the others thought the same. The jealous and hateful Davalo couldn't help but urge: "Todd! Lord Map has said so much, why don't you let your men lay down their arms? What are you waiting for?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone suddenly heard a loud noise coming from nowhere, and the whole house seemed to jump up. People fell all over the place as if they had suddenly lost their support and rolled into a ball. Some people were caught off guard and fell headfirst into the bloody face of the corpse, having a close contact with it.
At this time, they heard the only person who was still standing firmly laughed loudly: "What am I waiting for? I'm waiting for this moment!"
"boom!"
There was a loud bang.
From outside the spaceship, one could clearly see a beam of white light, like a sharp sword that suddenly pierced through the eighteenth floor of the spaceship!
