In the conference room.
Hades did not appear immediately.
But he waited until all the managers were noisy for a while before belatedly opening the door.
Looks quite young?
Su Mo raised his eyebrows in surprise, becoming interested in the man who walked in and seemed to be only thirty years old at most.
Hades was seen wearing a black and red silk robe, a dark orange ruffled belt around his waist, and a pair of shiny leather short boots.
The top of the head is covered with fine and elegant hair, the eyes are bright under the eyebrows, and the body is tall and tall.
It looks like a British gentleman, but also has a hint of evil bar lothario.
And similar to Katarina, Hades still looks young even though he is over a hundred years old.
There are even fewer wrinkles on his face than Catalina.
There was a hint of surprise on the faces of many managers present, and some older managers even exclaimed.
Hades is not a figure of this era, but the manager of their fathers and even their grandfathers.
Many people have the impression that even when he was young, he should have white hair and be on the verge of death.
But now.
“Welcome to all the managers of Qinggang City, you are welcome to come to the meeting, I am very happy to meet you!”
Looking at the surprised faces, the man had a sunny smile on his face. While smiling, he walked to a seat that nominally belonged to the northern suburbs but was actually only home to the Qinggang Shelter Family and sat down.
"It seems that there are no old faces here. It's a pity. When I wake up, things are different again."
Hades' eyes glanced back and forth, and he couldn't help feeling a little emotional. .
Since choosing to sleep, he can only wake up and move for an average of one month every fifteen years, and then he has to continue sleeping.
This method directly resulted in him not recognizing any of the managers present, especially the names on the nameplates, which were even more unfamiliar.
"Of course Master Hades doesn't know us. In fact, we don't know you either."
A manager from the southern suburbs said in a strange tone.
"Besides, we are not as free as you. There are many things that need to be managed in the shelter. I envy you for being able to just sleep and let the people below casually create so much mess."
"Hey, this Mr. Nelson has a really bad temper. I see he is from the Nadib Shelter. I still remember that the manager I talked to last time was Alvin."
< br>Hades said nonchalantly:
"I did something wrong in this matter. I failed to discipline the people below, which brought a lot of trouble to everyone and the city."
He stood up, sincerely bent down and bowed in three directions.
Whether this was a sign of sincerity or not, Sumo raised his eyebrows with interest because he was able to do this.
Not simple.
Being able to bend and stretch against a group of juniors, no matter what, Hades at least has a clear mind.
His apology immediately put smiles on the faces of those managers in the eastern suburbs who remained neutral.
After all, this war has not affected them at all, and now they are naturally willing to give Hades this face and do a favor.
Managers in the southern suburbs who had been ready to launch an attack could only hold back their words temporarily when they saw this move.
It can be said that the possible quarrel at the beginning of the meeting has been resolved by Hades invisibly.
“He doesn’t look as vicious and cunning as the records say.”
Liehu rubbed the stubble on his chin and suddenly made a thoughtful comment.
In the records left by the previous managers, the descriptions of Hades were basically not good.
The reason is that every time this guy wakes up, the city will be in turmoil.
"Maybe he's just pretending. Let's see what he says next."
Aldrich was also a little unsure, thinking of what Chapman had said more than once. .
He pondered, his eyes involuntarily glanced at Somo again.
However, it is a pity that Sumo did not express his opinion on Hades's current performance, and still stared at the center quietly.
After three bows.
Hades smiled and sat down.
“Although this is not the first time I stand here to face the city’s administrators, now, please allow me to introduce myself again. Hades, the administrator of Sunny Harbor Shelter, was once a student of the academy A first-level researcher, his ancestral home is Valencian. My grandfather is a high-ranking official in Jushan Province, and my father is the mayor of Qinggang City and one of the people who designed and presided over the construction of this city.”
"It's a pity that their excellent talents were not passed down."
Hades tapped his temple with his hand, then smiled and pointed at the table again.
“Originally, I was supposed to devote all my life to managing the shelter just like you, but due to an accident, I now have to fall asleep every once in a while and leave the management affairs to the people below.”< br>
"They are all the descendants of the original managers of the shelter. What a pity. Each generation is really inferior to the last."
After a pause, Hades shook his head with regret.
"Forget it, when people get "old" they always like to recall these things that have passed and let's talk about today's business."
"First, we have eliminated the large army of monsters that raided the city the night before yesterday. , the remaining ones wandering around the edge of the city were captured and rigorously interrogated within a day yesterday.
Thankfully, although I could not understand the unique language of these monsters, their brainwave transmission was still possible. But it turns out to be on the same frequency band as humans, so we can be regarded as getting an alternative way of communication."
After Hades finished speaking, the screen in the center began to flicker and gradually became clear.
In the picture, there is a bright laboratory with many seemingly advanced instruments.
Several poor captured dwarves were inserted into various pipes and were handcuffed to the hospital bed for a different kind of interrogation.
Isn’t this a video?
As two testers in white coats walked in from the door, they grinned at the camera.
The slacked spirits of the managers present immediately perked up, and they all looked at the screen attentively.
"Name?"
"Nishizawa."
"Identity?"
"United Nations Dwarf Squadron, Captain of the Special Investigation Team under the Third Brigade."
"How many of you are here?" Hong Kong?"
"The entire third brigade has a total of 35,000 people and 53,500 lizards of various types."
The dwarf seemed to be under mind control and answered the researcher's questions honestly.
Good guy!
Are there so many people?
The managers in the field couldn't help but clicked their tongues, and once again their vigilance towards this strange world rose to the extreme.
However, the next conversation between the researcher and the dwarf made them stunned.
"The purpose of your coming to Qinggang City?"
"Look for the most powerful Tianyuan territory in the city, flatten it, and capture Lord Somo alive!"
What?
The dwarf’s old-fashioned answer was like throwing a depth charge into the calm lake and detonating it.
Many managers present were so shocked that they stood up directly, their eyes fixed on the direction of the western suburbs, and finally focused on Sumo.
So many dwarves and lizards are not invading the city, but are coming to find the manager of Tianyuan?
That Sumo who organized the Western Suburbs Alliance?
Are you kidding me?
Subconsciously, many people thought that this might be Hades deliberately using some means to focus the conflict on the western suburbs.
It also caused panic within the western suburbs, creating a rift in trust between them.
After all, the dwarf could be said to be the strongest just now.
This title belongs to Yehu, a war madman, and he can barely make it through.
Of course, just barely.
The strongest one in the entire Qingang City is definitely the Qingang Sanctuary. There is no doubt about this.
The dwarves did not find the wrong person, but there may be some "artificial" deviations in the answers given now.
However, Hades did not interrupt the interrogation and continued to signal the researcher to ask the following questions.
“Since this is Tianyuan territory, why did you come to Qinggang Sanctuary?”
“Capture alive. Lead the way!”
Good guys, it’s okay to lead the way. Sumo almost lost his composure while still maintaining his expression.
He did not doubt that the results of the current interrogation were forged. In fact, the dwarves in the territory also interrogated some information, but they were not as intuitive as Hades's method.
The dwarf army does have a very strong purpose, which is to seek revenge on the Tianyuan territory during the great weakening of the Metal Sigh disaster, and to avoid future troubles.
It was just bad luck that I accidentally bumped into the Sunny Harbor Shelter.
In addition, Sumo guessed that there is another possibility, that is, the dwarves may have other independent purposes, and they are just using this excuse to fool the soldiers below.
However, the dwarf in charge of this brigade is estimated to have been buried in the riot, and there is no way to find the real answer.
"Ahem, don't be anxious, just keep watching."
Seeing that many people wanted to raise questions, Hades quickly coughed to signal for silence.
After receiving the instruction, the researcher continued to ask.
"Who is Sumo?"
"The lord of Tianyuan Territory, the strongest among humans, the most wanted criminal of the alien race, the inhuman executioner, the scheming conspirator, A villain who is good at disguise, and a God-slayer..."
puff.
Before the dwarf could finish speaking, Hunter Tiger spurted out.
Listen, what is this?
The strongest among mankind.
Well, he admitted that Somo's strength that night was indeed amazing, and he had an explosive strength that did not match his body size.
But saying he is the strongest among humans is too much, right?
What other executioners, conspirators and even God-Slayers have been created?
Is the on-site manager a fool?
How about playing?
"If you are listening to these meaningless accusations, then I think it is unnecessary. I do not believe that the Tianyuan Refuge Manager next to me is the person described by this monster."< br>
Yehu shrugged and won the unanimous approval of all the managers present.
Indeed, it’s outrageous.
There is no way to believe it.
On the other hand, Hades looked at Somo with interest and said with a smile:
"Oh, Mr. Somo, what do you think?"
This man can be said to be the youngest man among all the managers present.
He has been observing everyone since they first entered the lightning wall.
It is indeed a little different from others, but it is not as exaggerated as the dwarf described it.
If placed in the same era, Hades would have reason to believe that the man in front of him would be a good competitor for him.
But they are just competitors.
Carefully analyzed the recent changes in the Western Suburban Alliance, as well as the detailed information about the Yuan Shelter that day.
There is still a huge difference in size between the two, with a development gap of nearly half a century.
At least before the next awakening, Hades will not worry that Tianyuan Sanctuary may catch up.
“I think?” Sumo glanced at Hades unexpectedly, and suddenly smiled:
“Ha, what he said is very interesting, everyone present laughed happily. Get up?”
The words fell.
There was echoing laughter in the audience.
A guy who is not afraid of trouble also echoed loudly: "I think it's OK, at least these monsters are afraid of the strongest of us humans. In the future, everyone can relax and don't bother us Qinggang. The shelter has come out to seek justice!”
Hearing this, Hades was obviously stunned, then he laughed and shook his head.
“Okay, let’s continue.”
The scene turned and returned to the interrogation session on the screen.
After the poor dwarf answered just now, he seemed to be resistant.
But as a current passed through it, it shivered for a while but returned to its previous sluggish appearance.
"The strongest man in mankind? What has this Mr. Somo done to deserve what you say?"
"I don't know."
"Then why are there so many titles?"
"I don't know."
"Okay, let's change the topic, how many of you are there? I'm talking about the total number of dwarves?"
“One and a half million people.”
“Where are the lizards?”
"I don't know the exact number, but it will be at least a ratio of one to five, more than five million."
"How many people are there in your army?"
"Six hundred thousand! ”
“Are there any plans for Qinggang City and Tianyuan Territory? ”
“I don’t know”
"Where is this world, and you are the indigenous creatures here?"
"I don't know."
"In other words, what is your purpose?"
" Invade Tianyuan territory and capture Lord Soma!”
“Is this the purpose of the dwarves?”
"I don't know."
At this point, the interrogation is actually over.
The researcher then asked many more questions about other information about this world.
But the answer I got was always three words "unclear".
The researcher was very dissatisfied with this answer and involuntarily amplified the current stimulation. The electric dwarf shivered more and more.
And the dwarf's voice became louder and louder, one after another unclear as if in protest.
Everyone’s eyes are fixed on the screen.
Sumo glanced at Hades, who was smiling excitedly and seemed to enjoy seeing the scene of the dwarf being tortured.
Is there something wrong with this guy?
Although tiger hunting is cruel, it is not so exciting when it tortures people, right? Isn't this Hades a psychopath?
Just when Somo was thinking this, suddenly, a crackling electric spark flashed, and the electric current carried by the dwarf finally exceeded the limit.
Under the excessive stimulation, the latter was broken down by electric current, and electric sparks rushed out directly from the eye sockets.
Red and white were scattered all over the floor, and the perfectly clean laboratory instantly turned into a purgatory like a slaughterhouse.
"Unfortunately, this is the sixteenth time we have failed." Elegantly taking out the handkerchief in his pocket, the male researcher in the field wiped his face covered with blood-red fragments and said regretfully: "There seems to be some restriction in the minds of these dwarves. Whenever we ask some key questions, the radio frequency band will start to jump, as if something is resisting monitoring."
"But by Therefore, we can be sure that the Lord Soma of Tianyuan Territory they mentioned should be real. ”
"Although we can't get more detailed information from them to determine what this "Suma" did and why he was praised by these extremely powerful monsters, it just leaves enough for us to continue to dig deeper. Space."
"Because there is such a Tianyuan territory on the edge of the western suburbs of our city, and the lord happens to be called Somo."
"Mr. Somo, what do you think? What?”
