Chapter 565: Inquiring for Information
The player knew that he had been discovered by Zhang Tuohai, so he timidly climbed up and raised his hands: "Don't kill me, as long as you don't kill me, I can do whatever you want."
"Anything is fine? Really?" Zhang Tuohai asked with a playful smile.
"Really? If you don't believe me, I can prove it to you right now." The player said as he started to take off his pants.
"What the hell..." Zhang Tuohai was stunned. He just asked casually, but he didn't expect the other party to be serious.
Moreover, this guy was extremely fast, and Zhang Tuohai had already seen the SpongeBob SquarePants he was wearing inside.
"Alright, alright, I'm not interested in you. As long as you can answer my questions seriously and satisfy me, I will let you go."
Zhang Tuohai hurriedly stopped the guy. There were children in the car and it would be bad to teach them bad things.
"Really not necessary?" the man asked doubtfully.
"Really, there's no need. Just answer the questions honestly." Zhang Tuohai said helplessly.
He really had no interest in sailing on dry land.
"Oh, okay." The man pulled up his pants. Zhang Tuohai didn't know if it was an illusion, but he actually felt that the other person seemed to be a little disappointed...
Damn...
Zhang Tuohai sorted out his feelings and asked, "Can you explain what you are doing in the city?"
"You attacked us?" The man looked at Zhang Tuohai in astonishment. "You are alone. How did you attack us? How did you avoid our electronic reconnaissance vehicle?"
"It seems that you don't quite understand your current situation."
Zhang Tuohai snorted coldly, pulled out a pistol from his waist, and shot the man in the arm.
Bang!
There was a gunshot, and a nine-millimeter bullet hit the man's arm.
"Ah!" The man screamed and covered his arms.
"I'm asking you questions now, not asking you to ask them." Zhang Tuohai put the pistol back into his waist and raised the Gatling gun in his hand. "Remember this is your last chance. If you can't see the situation clearly again, the next time you will face a Gatling gun instead of a Glock. Do you understand?"
Zhang Tuohai asked in a cold voice.
"I understand, I understand." The man nodded repeatedly, "We are there to cultivate virus worms. These virus worms can devour the fusion virus, purify and refine the Alpha virus into a more powerful virus that is more suitable for biological transmission. Our mission is to feed a large number of virus carriers to the virus worms to cultivate more powerful viruses."
"What's the point of cultivating this? What's the purpose? To destroy the world?" Zhang Tuohai couldn't help but frowned after hearing this.
Before, he had only seen this kind of madman who destroyed the world in movies, but he didn't expect that there would be such a madman here.
They actually thought the Alpha virus was not powerful enough and tried to use worms to accelerate its evolution. This is simply insane.
"We don't have that idea. We'll be gone in seven days anyway. Whether this world is destroyed or not has nothing to do with us. We just accepted the commission from United Pharmaceuticals. We help them breed worms, and they give us arms and various supplies as compensation."
The man said quickly.
"It's United Pharmaceutical again." Zhang Tuohai frowned when he heard the name. He found that whenever something bad happened, it seemed to be related to this company.
Moreover, it seems that many players have connected with United Pharmaceuticals. How did they do it?
Zhang Tuohai didn’t remember that many players entered the light gate and entered the new world ahead of time.
"What is the background of this United Pharmaceutical and how did you get connected with it?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"United Pharmaceuticals is an indigenous company. Although it is called a company, it is very powerful and has connections all over the world. It has branches all over the world. Moreover, its business scope is not limited to pharmaceuticals, but covers the entire industry. As long as there is an industry, it will be involved. It is a well-deserved giant."
"In fact, we didn't know about this company at first. It was Moriarty who contacted us and helped us to establish a connection with United Pharmaceuticals for cooperation."
"It turned out to be Moriarty's doing."
When Zhang Tuohai heard the word Moriarty, a look of "as expected" appeared on his face.
No one except Moriarty has the ability to bring the player group and the largest indigenous company together so quickly.
In other words, for an entity of United Pharmaceuticals' level, it is no longer appropriate to describe it as a company; an underground kingdom might be more appropriate.
Zhang Tuohai also understood the purpose of bringing the two together, which was nothing more than letting United Pharmaceutical arm the players to better execute the plan of hunting him down.
However, if this is the case, it also exposes several of Moriarty's weaknesses from the side.
First, Moriarty cannot intervene in the game directly, at least he cannot do something directly, he has to do it through players or local strength.
Second, Moriarty can only provide limited equipment in the game. Otherwise, he could just give all players a set of magical equipment without having to go through United Pharmaceuticals.
Third, even the natives like United Pharmaceuticals do not completely follow Moriarty's instructions. They will bargain with a purpose, and players need to work hard to complete the transaction.
From this we can see that Moriarty is not that scary. As long as his tentacles extending into the game are cut off, Moriarty can't do anything to us.
Even if he handled it properly, he could contact those indigenous forces and work together to trick Moriarty.
However, this requires careful research.
"Who knows about this Moriarty affair? Could it be that I have made myself known to everyone?"
Zhang Tuohai suddenly asked.
"No, this matter is still very secretive. Only our leader and a few close associates know about it. Lord Moriarty doesn't like it to be known by too many people."
The man said quickly.
"One last question. As far as you know, which players have had contact with Moriarty? Your leader should know something, right?"
Zhang Tuohai asked.
"If I answer this question, can you let me go?" the man asked.
"If the answer satisfies me, I can let you go."
Zhang Tuohai said lightly.
The man struggled for a while, then said, "Actually, our leader is very tight-lipped. However, I have been wandering for a while and have good personal relationships with many people in the caravan. Then I got some information through private channels. It seems that many people have received help from Moriarty and reached an agreement with United Pharmaceuticals. Some have only accepted the most basic assistance, while most want more and will accept some tasks. For example, the task we took was to breed virus worms."
"I have answered all the questions, can you let me go?"
After the man finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Tuohai with eager eyes: "Or, I can compensate you with something else."
As the man spoke, he began to unbutton his pants again.
