Chapter 127: Chapter 122: Transaction

Xiao Yi and his team had annihilated tens of thousands of Mutants at the power station and confronted that strange creature, while Karim was also taking action.

He planned to personally go and negotiate with Lair.

Lair’s main stronghold was located in a large high-tech development zone in the new urban district.

In front of the entire area, Lair had established several-meter-high electric fences to stop the Mutants, and moreover, there wasn’t just one layer of fences, but several.

Inside the electric fence, guards continuously patrolled back and forth, making it the safest area in Kelan City today.

Such large-scale fortifications, even before the outbreak of the crisis, very few in the entire Kelan City could achieve this level, let alone now.

Karim understood more and more why so many people preferred to run the risk of death to serve as Lair’s dogs.

After all, there was no escape, and one would die anywhere inside Kelan City, so it was better to come to Lair’s side, where it was safer and there was a chance to obtain more and better survival resources.

But where exactly did Lair get such power from? Could it be that he had the backing of a special force?

However, thinking more about it was useless, these were already established facts, what could it change if he figured out the forces behind Lair? His side was still no match for him.

Moreover, Karim remembered the purpose of his visit.

Karim parked his car several hundred meters away from Lair’s stronghold, then walked towards the base.

Since the Mutants nearby had been cleaned up, and approaching by car could very likely provoke a direct attack from the guards,

Karim chose to... raise his hands high, slowly approaching Lair’s stronghold.

The guards stationed on the constructed high platforms soon spotted Karim.

Seeing that Karim appeared to have no hostility, they did not shoot directly but instead shouted,

"Who goes there!? Come any closer, and we’ll feed you bullets!"

Karim quickly responded, "I am Karim from the Tower! I seek an audience with Lair to propose a trade!"

"Karim? The leader of the Tower, coming to trade with our boss?"

The guards were taken aback, unsure of what to do.

Just then, someone who looked very experienced spoke up.

"It really is Karim, the leader of the Tower, coming for a trade? You actually coming to trade with our boss is interesting, our boss loves interesting things. Hey! Open the gate for him quickly!"

Anyway, Karim had entered Lair’s stronghold, but he knew that this was just the beginning!

What was to come was of the greatest importance! Anything could happen inside Lair’s stronghold, especially after meeting Lair!

Karim was led directly to meet Lair, who was on the rooftop terrace of a large building.

At that moment, Lair was enjoying his lunch.

Seeing Lair again, the madman who had killed his friend, Karim couldn’t help but hold his breath.

Lair had not even noticed Karim’s arrival; he was just looking at the steak in front of him that was almost impossible to taste in today’s Kelan City, smiling slightly.

Many people surrounded Lair, attentively watching his every move.

Lair did not eat the steak but looked around at the people and asked with a smile,

"The aroma is enticing, which chef prepared this steak?"

"...It was me." A chef dressed in a chef’s outfit, stood out tremblingly.

"Your culinary skills are quite good, just the smell is enough to tell." Lair smiled, and then asked, "I haven’t seen you before... Oh, that’s right, I basically change chefs every few days, but you’re quite good, maybe you can stay with me. So, answer a question for me, who recommended you?"

Seeing Lair’s pleased demeanor, a man in a suit immediately stepped forward to take credit,

"Report to Mr. Lair! It was me! I specifically investigated your preferences, found that you favor beef, so I specifically selected a chef skilled in this area for you!"

"Really? You did well," Lair praised.

"I’m flattered! From here on, I will definitely not tarnish..."

The man had been elated, but before he could finish speaking, he couldn’t say another word.

Because Lair suddenly pulled out a pistol and shot him in the forehead.

The chef was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, kowtowing and begging Lair for mercy.

Lair merely tossed the steak he was holding down the building indifferently and said to the chef,

"I’m not eating beef today, make something else for yourself."

Though the chef’s forehead was already bleeding, hearing he could still survive, he was profusely grateful to Lair.

"..." Karim watched the scene in silence.

At that moment, Lair noticed Karim and smirked contemptuously.

Although seated, Lair still looked down upon Karim and said,

"Oh, isn’t this the boss of the Tower organization who is a match for me? To come in person truly spares me the effort of a warm reception. So... what brings you here?"

Karim didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, "Lair, I need supplies and suppressants, which is why I’ve come to make a deal with you."

"A deal?" Lair scoffed, "Are you sure you’re using that term correctly? Do you have anything that could catch my attention for more than a second?"

"... Whatever you need, I will do my best to provide it!"

"You do talk interestingly," Lair stood up, walked over to Karim, and spoke in a devilish tone, "You say you want to save this city, solve the infection crisis—can you do that?"

Upon hearing this, the people around them burst out laughing.

Frowning, Lair shot someone dead with a casual gunshot and spat on the ground.

"Why laugh at your mother’s laughing, what’s so funny?"

No one was laughing anymore.

"..." Although Karim was tense, he still firmly said, "I can do anything you ask! Just please give me the suppressant!"

"Anything, you say?" Lair looked intrigued.

He eyed Karim for a moment, then abruptly asked, "Which is your dominant hand?"

"... Right hand."

"Good." Saying this, Lair handed Karim a spring-loaded knife and directed, "Then let your clumsy left hand, holding this knife, cut off your prized right hand."

Lair’s voice grew increasingly horrifying as he spoke!

"You said... what?" Karim began to sweat profusely.

This madman! Truly a demon!

How could such a small knife possibly cut off his own hand? And to do it by his own hand!

"You hesitated," Lair sighed, "What a pity. I was actually going to give you the entire box of suppressants if you were willing."

Saying this, Lair glanced at a large supply box, about half the size of a person, placed in the corner!

The highly sought-after suppressant by the Tower! It was casually lying around on Lair’s side!

"Wait!" Karim hurriedly picked up the knife, "I... will do it! I will... chop off my own right hand!"

"Very well." A tyrannical gleam flashed in Lair’s eyes, "Then begin, and oh, a friendly piece of advice—put some force into it, otherwise it might hurt for a long time and still not come off."
