Chapter 998 Prepare to cause trouble
"Spare your life, we are just free mercenaries."
"We can give a ransom..." The two mecha masters knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and both of them were now filled with fear.
Because from the beginning to now, in just a few seconds, not even ten seconds, ten mechas of the entire mercenary group were dispatched from the road train, and then quickly returned to defense. Now the entire mercenary group has almost been The group was wiped out, and the group leader was instantly killed right after he started taking action.
Almost everything else was a face-to-face encounter. The two mecha masters had no idea how the other mecha did it, but they knew that the mission target was so perverted that she might be a mecha master.
But nothing else is important now, the important thing is to survive.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me?" The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. Now they no longer thought about what to do next.
The actions of the two people are actually a rule of the mecha master. That is, when the mecha master opens the cockpit and kneels, it means that the mecha master can no longer use the mecha in the future. It also means that surrender.
It's like a swordsman dropping his sword and surrendering. Then the swordsman can no longer use the sword in the future.
"We are the A-level puffer mercenary group. We received..." One of the two people quickly answered.
"We don't know who issued the mission. We also followed the command of the regiment leader, who started the attack..." Another person also added.
After Yang Bo heard this, he was not surprised at all, because he had never thought of knowing who the culprit was from these people. Without 100% certainty, the people behind the scenes would not do it themselves.
The models of the Mercenary Guild and the Bounty Hunter Guild also perfectly provide confidential services for those behind the scenes.
"Get lost!" Yang Bo immediately told the two people to get lost after hearing this.
It seems that the level of these two people is not high. Although their mecha operation skills are good, it is impossible for Yang Bo to use these people, and the other party will not use mechas in the future.
When the two people heard this, they kowtowed quickly, then turned around and ran away. They also knew that the people in front of them were shareholders of Black Star Company. If they didn't run, they would wait for the police from Vicky City or the armed personnel of Black Star Company to arrive. , it’s troublesome.
The two mechas are no longer needed. This mecha is Yang Bo's trophy.
The road train in the distance and the mecha that had been blown up and burned were still burning. The mecha's battery and the road train's battery were not easy to burn completely.
The entire space is dark and filled with explosive metal dust. This metal dust is very polluted.
If it were in the Union, the local government wouldn't know how much it would cost to clean up, but in the Federation, no one cares at all.
A full ten minutes passed before the police from Vicky City arrived belatedly. After seeing the scene, these policemen breathed a sigh of relief.
These federal police officers, no matter they are police officers in any city, will never show up as long as there is a conflict. After all, with very low salaries, is it necessary to risk their lives to maintain safety?
If the matter is too big, the company's armed forces will naturally handle it.
The company's security guards arrived later than the police. The head of the company's security department was so surprised that his jaw dropped when he saw the scene in front of him.
"Director Li?" The security minister, a bald white man, got off the fighter plane wearing a battle armor and came to Yang Bo's mecha.
"Minister Zhu, your response is really fast. How long has it been since I sent out the distress signal?" Zhu Keli stood in front of the mecha. When he heard the sound from the mecha, he knew that this time things were in trouble.
"Director Li, actually I have a day off today..." Minister Zhu realized that this matter was not simple. Something like this happened to him during his vacation. The things behind this were not simple.
Moreover, several other deputy ministers of the Ministry of Security also happened to be busy and were not in Vichy City yet, but Zhukry could not explain more.
"Hmph, you figure it out, I'm going to have a board meeting." Yang Bo just snorted coldly inside the mecha.
Although John Li was also the second shareholder of Black Star Company in the past, he could hardly get involved in personnel affairs. After all, John Li's background was not as strong as that of the largest shareholder.
The company's security department is also the company's force department, so the managers in this department are almost all major shareholders.
Yang Bo has no good solution for the time being. The cultivation of talents is not temporary. If you want to poach others to work for you, you need all kinds of calculations and intrigues. Yang Bo is not good at these things at all.
But Crimson Federation, as long as you perform well enough, there will be many talents who will defect to you.
This is also another meaning of Yang Bo's action. As long as you are strong enough, there will be many people who will depend on you.
In the security command center of Black Star Company, although Tate's face was calm, he was cursing in his heart. The dignified A-level free mercenary group has this ability?
In fact, Tate did not know the process of the battle, because the battles took place at very low altitudes, and in order to avoid suspicion, Tate did not come to the command center early.
Black Star Company's armed forces have not been dispatched for a long time because of Tate's methods, taking vacations and business trips.
It takes a while to delay, and no one is to blame for emergencies anyway.
When the police arrived, Tate was surprised by what they reported back. It was as if a big war had broken out at the scene.
When the company's armed forces arrived, it became clearer.
The entire area was filled with the remains of violently burning mechas and road trains, and the entire space was filled with a layer of gray.
Coupled with the burning light and energy fluctuations from these wreckage, those who didn't know thought it was an armed conflict, not an attack.
The wreckage of the eight mechas was beyond recognition, leaving only the burning light of the mecha batteries scattered in an area.
Although these mechas are only fifth- and sixth-generation mechas from the Alliance, they are already considered very advanced in the Federation, because some forces are still using previous tanks and other equipment.
The road train was still exploding, and the police were investigating the scene. These were actually not important. What was important was that although John Li's mecha looked damaged, his mecha could still fly.
Tate also heard what John Li said and knew that he was in trouble. The Armed Forces Department would definitely have personnel changes this time.
"Idiot!"
"Idiot!"
"James, you are an idiot!" Tate walked out of the company's security command center, called James, and cursed.
"..." James also received news from the Free Mercenary Union that the mission had failed.
Moreover, the Pufferfish Mercenary Group was almost wiped out this time. Someone from the Free Mercenary Union was watching from a distance. The Mercenary Union collected a handling fee and would naturally give an explanation to the person who issued the reward.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that James is in trouble, and the mercenary union demands compensation from James.
Because the mission target information provided by James was inconsistent, the Pufferfish Mercenary Group suffered huge losses.
Of course, if James is willing to spend a sum of money to let the mercenary union investigate the mission target information, then the mercenary union will be responsible for subsequent discrepancies in the mission target information.
The purpose of the mercenary union's doing this is mainly for the development of the union, because the strength of the task target is different, and the amount of the task is also different.
Otherwise, someone could offer a very high mission at a very low price, and the mercenary who received the mission would die.
Not only will the bounty paid by James be confiscated, but he will also face huge compensation.
As for the amount of compensation, the mercenary union has not yet assessed the losses. Apart from the handling fees, the rest of the compensation is to be compensated to the Pufferfish Mercenary Group.
The Puffer Mercenary Group suffered too many losses this time, including eight mechas, a modified road train, the command center above, laser cannons, and more than 30 people.
"Chairman..." James was numb now. After being scolded by Tate, he didn't know what to say.
"Fuck you!" Tate was also angry. This incident made him too passive. Can't an A-level mercenary group deal with John Li?
"I didn't expect the other party to be so strong. One person almost destroyed an A-level mercenary group." James was crying when he said this.
"Humph!" Tate hung up the phone directly because Tate didn't know what to say, and Tate felt that what James did this time was good for him.
At least he has tested out John Li's true strength, which will be very helpful for his future plans.
"John Lee, this bastard, is well hidden. It seems that he is at least as strong as a mecha master."
"Although this incident made me very passive and there will be some troubles in the future, James, this loser, has done a good thing." After Tate hung up the phone, he thought to himself as he walked towards the door of the company.
"Director Li, are you okay?" As soon as he arrived at the door of the company, he saw John Li who had just gotten off the mecha. Tate asked quickly with concern on his face.
"Chairman Tate, I don't think you are qualified for the position of chairman. As the second largest shareholder of the company, I was attacked. I sent out a distress signal for ten minutes before the company sent someone to rescue me. They were still behind the police. "Tate didn't expect that John Li wouldn't give him any face at all, and directly accused himself.
"Director Li, this is an emergency and the security department has indeed failed in its duty..." There are already many shareholders at the company's gate. Today is supposed to be the shareholders' meeting, but if something like this happens again, Tate can't deny it.
"Chairman Tate, is this a simple dereliction of duty? I was attacked by ten mechas and a laser cannon. As a shareholder of the company, I asked for help as soon as I was attacked. Shouldn't the company's armed personnel be the first to respond? Rescue immediately?" Tate saw that he was interrupted by John Li before he finished speaking.
"As a shareholder, I still own 11% of the shares, and the company treats me like this? What about the shareholders around me? Do you, Chairman Tate, just wish that all of us shareholders would die?"
"More than ten minutes, exactly ten minutes, even later than the police? Is your chairman managing the company's personnel structure? Did you, Tate, instruct you not to rescue me as a shareholder?" Yang Bo sounded a little excited. Blame Tate.
Other shareholders around him also spoke at this time. First of all, Peter said last time: "This time things are really outrageous. Director Li has been sending a distress signal for so long."
"That is, our shareholders were attacked in their own place, and the company was unable to rescue them in time. What caused it?"
However, some shareholders on Tate's side said: "This matter is indeed outrageous, but the responsibility should not be with the chairman, but with the security department. The main reason is that the matter was too sudden."
"The chairman can't directly intervene in such an emergency, right?"
"I think so too."
When Yang Bo heard this, he sneered and said: "Then I suggest that the company's armed forces will not take any measures against shareholders' requests for help in the future. What do you think?"
Without waiting for everyone to answer, he asked again: "Abolish one-third of the Armed Forces Department and divide the remaining funds into dividends. We will use these dividends to ensure our own safety."
Peter laughed when he heard this: "I think it's okay to lay off two-thirds of the company. After the saved money is divided into dividends, we can each strengthen our own armed forces. When the company encounters problems, we can just add more people."
"Yes, this method is good. Now that the company's armed forces department is managed like this, it's better to just divide the money among everyone. I don't know that the armed forces department can't guarantee the safety of shareholders with so much funding every year?"
"The armed forces department of our company is probably different from other companies."
"It is estimated that someone is interested in Director Li's shares and wants to kill him."
"If you put it this way, could the people who attacked Director Li be instigated by those who want Director Li's shares?" "Tsk, tsk, it seems we have to be careful in the future. Some people will do anything for their shares. .”
When Yang Bo heard this, he chuckled: "After the shareholders' meeting today, I will mortgage my company's shares to some big banks. Otherwise, I will be killed that day without spending all the money. It would be a pity." ”
When Tate heard what John Li said, he said: "Let's talk in the conference room. The company must investigate this matter and give an explanation to all shareholders."
"Haha, give up the car to save the handsome man. Chairman Tate, if you don't give me a satisfactory answer on this matter, then I will oppose any proposal of the company in the future." Yang Bo chuckled, then looked at Tate and said .
Yang Bo naturally knows that the shareholders of the company, no matter how big or small, are all good people, and they are always thinking of scheming against others, so he wants to get the water mixed up.
This time, the first thing to do is to deal with the personnel of the company's armed department. Although I don't have many management positions in the armed department, others have them. Now I mainly deal with Tate, that is, the Bobby family.
You don't have to get any benefits, but Tate and the Bobby family have to pay the price.
"Don't worry, Director Li." Tate took a deep breath, seemingly making a serious promise.
However, Tate disagreed in his mind, because John Li only had a few people in the company, and the management of each department in the company required relevant majors, so people were not transferred casually.
Now these managers of the Ministry of Armed Forces will definitely not be able to keep their positions, so I can use these positions to win over other shareholders.
Tate had no choice but to think this way, because he did lose the initiative this time.
If I had known that John Li had such perverted strength, I would definitely not have made such a choice. It's all because John Li, the damn bastard, hid it too deeply. If it hadn't been for such a test, I wouldn't have known that this sinister and despicable guy actually had such strength.
"Hmph." Yang Bo snorted coldly, and then walked into the company headquarters with the others, which was at the core of the company's territory.
Others in the company looked at the shareholders entering the building and started talking.
"Fuck, Director Li is too powerful."
"That's right, look at this scene. I'm afraid Director Li is at the level of a mecha master."
"Absolutely. Director Li's mecha is much more advanced."
"If you look online, there are already videos, but they are intermittent."
"Tsk, tsk, how did these reporters obtain these video materials?"
"It seems that someone specially filmed it?" The Crimson Federation's largest free news network already has video information of John Li being attacked.
However, after looking at it, these employees of the company found that it seemed that someone had taken it specially from a distance.
Yang Bo was also inside the company at this time. Pete sat next to Yang Bo and whispered: "Look at this one."
Yang Bo looked at the virtual projection of Pete's smart watch. The projection was only the size of a palm, but it was very clear and could of course be enlarged.
"Huh?" Yang Bo felt a little strange looking at the perspective of this video.
"Most of the people who attack you are guys from certain unions. These unions will track tasks and ensure that tasks are completed, especially high-value tasks." Pete explained in a low voice.
Yang Bo nodded. Peter's guess made sense. After all, the mission of the Blowfish Mercenary Group was an A-level mission, and it was natural for the union to send people to track it.
When it comes to large bounties, you must be satisfied with the person who posted the task. At the same time, you can also collect information about the target task and the mercenary group.
This information can be monetized.
"Holy shit!" Pete stared at the video in stunned silence. Although the video was not complete, for example, when Yang Bo knocked off the radar in the weapons compartment of the road train at the beginning, he couldn't see it due to the distance and angle.
Traces of the laser emission can be seen in the video capture, as the energy fluctuations can be captured in the video.
You can see John Li's mecha flying beside the road. It suddenly moved, and then a laser shot over the mecha.
Then John Lee's mecha could no longer be seen, because the mecha had already fallen. However, in less than a second, the carriage of the road train shook violently. John Lee's mecha could be seen right next to the carriage of the road train. side.
Immediately afterwards, John Li's mecha flipped over the road train car, and at the same time, the car imploded instantly. You can see that the car suddenly bulged, and the contents of the car were sprayed from one side.
John Li's mecha picked up the mecha laser gun again and slaughtered the attackers wearing armors who had not yet reacted.
The video only lasts 4.89 seconds, but within these 4.89 seconds, a tenth-generation mecha went from being attacked to a killer.
It can be clearly seen that more than eight mechas were beaten to pieces, and more than twenty attackers died. The number of dead people in the carriage is unclear. Anyway, John Lee's mecha killed nineteen attackers with laser weapons. .
That's why Pete looked like he saw a ghost. There are eight mechas. Although there are fourth and fifth generation mechas among these eight mechas, there are also eighth and ninth generation mechas.
Moreover, these mechas were the ones making the sneak attack, and John Li next to them was the one being attacked.
There was also a road train on the attacking side, and there were laser cannons inside the road train, as well as dozens of armed personnel wearing armor.
From contact to the end of the battle, it takes less than five seconds.
Pete felt a chill on his back because John Li was too fierce. Although the Crimson Federation also had a history of more than a dozen mechas, and there were also examples of mechas turning the tide.
But this was the first time this happened to him, and John Li was too fast, and the entire rhythm of the battle was controlled by John Li from the beginning.
What is needed to master the rhythm of battle is, of course, predicting the opponent's reaction and reacting on the spot.
"Grandmaster?" Peter asked in a low voice, looking at John Li who was sitting next to him and looking like a master. He was also reading the comments under the video.
"I don't know. I said I didn't know how to do it at the time. Do you believe it?" Yang Bo breathed a sigh of relief after watching the video. The video contained incomplete information and many things about himself were not exposed.
Why did Yang Bo hit those mechas so hard? Of course, it was to destroy the combat data of the mechas.
The weapons carriage of the road train was also hit and exploded, and the data from its own radar that attacked the weapons carriage was lost.
As for the two intact mechas abandoned by the attackers, of course they were asked to be dragged back by the people in Xiaoyao Village. Who dares to stand up and say who these mechas belong to.
Anyway, if these mechas were handed over to the police station, they would be destroyed by those guys. Even the undamaged road train carriages were taken back by the people from Xiaoyaozhuang.
"I believe that in fact, when people encounter huge dangers, they don't have time to think about how to deal with it. However, this requires sufficient strength. Director Li, please take care of me in the future in the company." Peter's tone of voice was a little flattering. .
Why?
Because of this level of mecha operation, it is almost invincible in the city.
In the federation, among the conflicts between various companies and cities, mechas are the mainstream.
"There is an opportunity this time. The management of the Ministry of Armed Forces will definitely handle it, but I don't have anyone in my hands. As a major shareholder, I am really not good at management." Yang Bo replied in a low voice.
"Yes, we shareholders need to be cautious. Some people are eager for something to happen to us small shareholders. Is the chairman really going to understand the situation or discuss countermeasures?" Pete nodded. Tate went out just now and said yes. To understand what happened, we must first deal with this emergency.
"Well, I don't want the company to send someone to rescue me next time I'm attacked." Yang Bo nodded.
When Pete heard this, he muttered in his heart: You killed the other party in less than five seconds, and it doesn't matter whether the company saves him or not.
But Peter also knew that what John Li wanted was an attitude. After all, some things were not always so lucky.
And this time John Li has revealed his true strength. If the people behind the scenes come again, they may have a targeted plan.
"Director Li, you are really amazing."
"Director Li, you are so awesome. Fortunately, it was you who happened this time. If we had been killed, we would have been killed a long time ago."
"Director Li, you have become famous." Other shareholders also saw the video. Five or six small shareholders didn't care whether they were shareholders or not. They approached John Li one after another and said with a somewhat attentive tone.
Some other shareholders had complicated expressions, and some were even a little restless. These restless shareholders were shareholders who had conflicts with John Li.
John Li's mecha skills are too abnormal. If such a person controls a mecha to carry out beheading operations or raids, the target of the attack will most likely be left in disgrace.
Most of the small shareholders present do not have the financial resources to own ten mechas.
"Fortunately, I still have some strength. If I had replaced you, I'm afraid it would be over."
"What do other people think of our company and our shareholders? As shareholders of the company, the company's armed forces actually do not protect or rescue?"
"The company is under the management of the major shareholder, and the problems are too big. If we don't change, this kind of thing may be your turn next time." Yang Bo nodded, not being modest, but started talking about other things.
These small shareholders are indeed worried, because although there is no direct evidence for this incident, it is inseparable from the major shareholders.
Leaving aside the attack, why was the Ministry of Armed Forces' response so slow?
And if you don't change, then people from other companies, or your enemies, will take desperate measures to do something against you if they see that it took ten minutes for the company to come to the rescue?
These small shareholders had these thoughts in their minds, and when they heard what John Li said, they became even more worried.
John Li was strong and escaped a disaster, but what about himself?
"Director Li, what do you think we should do?"
"Director Li, you are also a major shareholder, we listen to you."
"That's it!" these small shareholders said quickly.
"Regardless of the reason, all the management of the Ministry of Armed Forces will be fired, and they will also be investigated to see if they have any relationship with the attackers." This is the effect Yang Bo wants.
"The management of the Ministry of Armed Forces, we all recommend some of our own people, and don't let certain people interfere, otherwise it may be the same next time."
"Also, the chairman must also be responsible for this matter, we can't just let it go."
"There are also other departments of the company that need to be investigated. The Ministry of Armed Forces has been so fooled this time. Where are the other departments? Maybe the money earned by the company has been transferred away by some people." Yang Bo was ready to make this matter a big deal.
"You said it well, Mr. Li!"
"I've wanted to check the accounts for a long time."
At this moment, Tate came back in a hurry: "Everyone, this time the matter has been cleared up."
