Chapter 376 I gave you the most precious thing
"It's going up, it's going up!"
At night, Lu Qi was enjoying the cool breeze on the outdoor rooftop of his home when he saw the elf goddess appear quite excitedly.
"What's gained? Weight?"
Lying in the rocking chair, he replied without raising his head, and then yawned out of boredom.
"?" Janna slowly typed a question mark, frowned, and said slightly unhappy: "How could it be my weight? My weight has never changed, right? Of course I am talking about believers!"
As a goddess, although she usually eats a little too much, she is blessed with a physique that prevents her from getting fat no matter how much she eats.
No weight anxiety at all!
Lu Qi became more energetic at this time, said "Oh" and said: "Can you still observe the number of believers in real time?"
"of course."
Janna said matter-of-factly, "If I can't feel the number of believers, I'll be at the end of my road."
Lu Qi asked curiously: "So how did you find out about the increase?"
Janna thought for a while: "Usually it's just prayer, and then it's sincerity. As long as people pray to me, I can sense it. And some devout believers, even if they don't pray, I can sense it."
After hearing this, Lu Qi nodded and said with a smile: "Congratulations."
"It's okay just barely." Janna waved her hands modestly, but couldn't hide the smile on her lips. She said arrogantly, "Although the number of believers is still far from the number I had at my peak, the facts prove that you The method is indeed effective. As a reward, you will make me a pudding now."
"?"
Lu Qi made a question mark, stood up and asked, "Where's the reward?"
Janna blinked: "Make me pudding."
"I have to say that you have become much more humorous recently, and you can make jokes like this."
Lu Qi looked at her with a 'loving' smile.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
The next second, Lu Qi lay back down with a cold expression: "No."
The atmosphere was like a bucket of cold water being poured down, and it suddenly became a little awkward.
"Isn't this a joke?" Janna coughed dryly to ease her embarrassment, then pretended to be aggrieved and said, "I have given you my most precious thing, so how can there be any other reward."
The blessing of wind is not something that others can easily obtain. Throughout history, Janna was the only one who gave this thing to Lu Qi.
Although the reason is that there was no need for her to do this at her peak.
But Lu Qi was right about being the first.
Moreover, the affinity of the wind is not just a blessing, it is a power closely related to Janna.
In other words, the more strength Janna recovers, the stronger the effect of the blessing will be. It is something that will bring many benefits both now and in the future.
If you think about it this way, it is indeed the only reward Janna can get.
But the most precious thing is obviously not this.
Others are gods rewarding believers, but when it comes to Lu Qi, the situation is reversed.
It was late at night, and he had to make a pudding supper for a certain foodie goddess, but if he wanted to make it, he couldn't make just one portion.
Sure enough, the moment Lu Qi came downstairs and walked to the kitchen. Immediately, multiple pairs of eyes looked at him.
"I'm going to make some late-night snacks. If you want to eat, raise your hand."
Lu Qi stopped and after finishing his words, he raised his little hands with a "swish" sound.
Although it had only been more than three hours since dinner, it was obvious that everyone didn't mind having another midnight snack.
Lu Qi knew this would be the case and sighed softly.
It's not enough to make some pudding right now, so let's make more midnight snacks.
Downtown area.
Inside a factory.
"Are you sure we start tonight?"
Kunta asked hesitantly. The dim light in the room made him feel uneasy, but maybe it was because something big was about to happen.
"Hesitation leads to defeat. Successful people always strike first. The longer we delay, the easier it is to give him a chance to react."
On the side, Damus calmly exhaled the last puff of his cigarette, then threw it on the ground and stamped it out, his eyes flashed coldly, "To deal with a scheming person like him, only the more unexpected the timing, the more effective it will be. "
Kunda was convinced by this reason. He took a deep breath and nodded: "Then proceed as planned."
"Listen carefully, when the time comes, we will send out our own troops."
Damus made his final instructions. He looked at the people around him and said, "At the critical moment, no one can let go. We must not give him a chance to react. As long as we get rid of him, we will have the final say in the city." .”
Several people listened and nodded.
Kunda's eyes flickered. He had been in the lower city for so many years and had been hanging out with Fander. He could be said to be a senior.
He thinks that he is no worse than Silko no matter what he does, the only difference between him and him is an opportunity.
Tonight was his chance, and he had to seize it.
As long as Hilko is eliminated, he can show off his skills in the lower city.
With such expectations, Kunda walked towards the outside of the factory, planning to start preparing for tonight's action when he returned.
Pushing open the door, a layer of darkness suddenly enveloped him. Just when Kunta was frowning and wondering why it was so dark outside, a pinkish-purple light suddenly lit up.
Then, a light source appeared, and a person was leaning against the wall, quietly wiping a long blade.
Seeing this person, Kunta was stunned for a moment: "Sevika? Why are you here?"
Hearing this, Sevika glanced sideways at him: "Passing by, are you satisfied with this answer?"
Kunta subconsciously took a step back and became alert: "You don't look like someone who would pass by a place like this."
"Since you know me so well, you should know why I'm here."
Seweka stood upright, and the long blade in her left hand also lit up with a burst of blood-red light.
Kunta took another step back, then without hesitation, turned around and ran back. He did not forget to push down a pile of boxes at the door, and shouted in a panic: "Dams, the plan has been exposed!"
His voice was extremely loud at night, and it instantly alerted the Dams people who were leaving in other directions.
They sensed something was wrong and started to return the same way at the same time, and soon got together again.
"What did you say?"
"Sevika is outside, and she appears here. She obviously already knows our plan."
Kunda was out of breath and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He looked back and saw that Sevika had not caught up.
But as a veteran, he understood too well the significance of this person who could be called Hilko's personal secretary appearing here.
Damus' expression turned cold and he said, "Someone betrayed us."
The other two little bosses looked at each other and saw a hint of fear deep in the other's eyes. It was obvious that they were not the betrayers.
"No need to be suspicious of each other."
At this time, Hilko's voice suddenly sounded. He walked out of the shadows and said calmly: "Your actions were all done under my eyes. How could I not know?"
Following him, there were a group of subordinates who walked out, including Seweka. They all looked cold.
"Successful people always strike first. I agree with this sentence."
Hilko looked at the four of them indifferently. He was not tall, but he exuded great oppression at this moment. "I actually gave you a chance, but you are greedy."
At this moment, the faces of the four people all changed. They were gloomy, frightened, and horrified. They did not expect that Hilko would move so fast.
Their plan hadn't even begun and they were already surrounded by Silko.
Kunta's throat rolled twice, but he didn't say a word. He knew Hilko's character and knew that it would be useless to say anything at this moment.
In comparison, Damus was relatively calm. He looked at Hilko coldly: "Awesome, Hilko. Obviously you have never trusted us."
Hilko smiled lightly and said: "The relationship between us has never reached the stage of trust. I do things for you, and you obey me. This is the relationship between us."
Damus sneered: "You were just a nobody back then, why should we be your servants for the rest of our lives?"
"Have I ever said that I want you to obey me for the rest of your life?" Hilko looked calm and said, "Winning is the unchanging rule, and judging from the results, it's just that you lost."
"You're right, compared to being cunning, we are still too young."
Damus laughed, then took out a button device from his pocket, and pressed it without hesitation.
Suddenly, there was a "bang" explosion, accompanied by a burst of fire, coming from above the factory, followed by a burst of debris falling down.
Hilko's expression changed and he ordered: "Get out!"
With the sound of the second "bang", the steel factory seemed to be crumbling and about to collapse at any time. Everyone immediately began to disperse outwards.
The first person to run away was Damas.
Kunda and the other three reacted a little slowly, and when they took a step, several gunshots were heard, and several bullets immediately passed through their bodies.
One of them seemed to have shot into Damus's leg, but no one had time to pay attention.
"Boom!"
Even Silko didn't expect that Damus would plant so many bombs here. Could it be that he had expected the plan to be exposed and made preparations in advance?
Or is it all a coincidence?
Standing outside the ruined factory, looking at the raging fire, Hilko looked cold. These bombs ruined his mood tonight.
After the fire went out, Sevika returned not long after and reported: "Four charred corpses were found, all with gunshot wounds. Their identities could no longer be confirmed."
Hearing this, Hilko asked aloud: "Are there any casualties among our people?"
Sevika shook her head: "No, we are close to the exit, so we ran out before the factory collapsed."
Looking at it this way, there is no need to confirm the identities of the four corpses.
It's just that Hilko's mood is still not very good. If he hadn't run so fast, he might have been tricked here.
Who would plant a bunch of bombs in their secret base if they have nothing better to do?
"You will take care of the territory of the four of them for the time being. During this time, you will slowly find someone to replace them."
Xilka thought for a moment and gave instructions to Sevika.
"yes."
Seveka responded.
No one paid attention to the farce in the city tonight. Maybe it will take some time for someone to discover that four gang leaders disappeared silently.
The night has not yet passed, in an unknown area of the lower city.
A door was pushed open, and Dames fell into the room dragging his shot-injured leg. After taking a few breaths, he said directly: "The plan was exposed. The old fox Silko was indeed on guard. He had already taken action before we had a chance to take action."
In the room, a long-haired man was reading a book leisurely. Hearing this, he put down the book in his hand, revealing a young face.
"It's pretty much what I expected. Fortunately, I made preparations in advance. Is your injury okay?"
"It doesn't matter."
Dames stood up slowly and sat on the chair, still panting: "Carol, what is Mr. C's next instruction? What is it?"
Carroll said: "We are going to find an alchemist. This person is the main developer of the shimmer potion behind Hilko. If we want to rule the lower city, it is not enough to just overthrow Hilko."
Hilko is undoubtedly the overlord of the lower city, and almost the entire lower city is in his hands.
As for his method of controlling the lower city, in addition to the prestige and outstanding abilities he established in his early years, there is also the shimmering potion.
So in fact, just by getting rid of Hilko, they can't become the masters of the lower city.
Shimmer Potion not only represents a huge economic chain, but also represents the aspirations of the people.
Damus frowned and said, "Then why are you still standing there? Go find him."
"If it were so easy to find, we wouldn't have to prepare so many plans."
Carroll said calmly: "Such an important person, Hilko will naturally protect him very well."
"Tonight's plan is exposed, and there is only one possibility. Hilko has far more informants in the lower city than we imagined. As a result, we cannot easily test his bottom line."
"Indeed, this guy is as cunning as a fox." Damus nodded in agreement, and said with gloomy eyes: "If we miss this opportunity, with this guy's cautious character, it will be difficult for us to continue testing."
"Don't be in a hurry, just take your time. Another instruction from Mr. C is to secretly interfere with Hilko, create trouble for him, and then remove his eyes bit by bit. The rest is to wait for the opportunity."
Carroll glanced at Damus and continued, "Then we will find a way to find this alchemist."
At this time, Damus thought of something and frowned: "The capable man next to Hilko must also be found. If we want to attack Hilko, we must bypass her."
"Sevika."
Carroll began to think thoughtfully, and then said, "I think of a good candidate. He can deal with Severka and also cause trouble for Hilko."
Dames couldn't help asking: "Who is it?"
"A guy who is in prison and hates Hilko." Carol smiled slightly, "We need to find a way to get her out of it."
