Supremely Talented Tyrant -
Chapter 845 - 844: Admit Defeat
"Stop, stop, stop! Brother Hao, let's talk this out, talk this out..."
Upon hearing these words, Bamboo Pole immediately snapped to attention and hurriedly got up, running to Hao Jian with a subservient and flattering low voice.
This man had instantly taken down Lion, a ruthless character! Now, if he were to be hated by him, would he even live?! Didn't he see that Lion simply collapsed under his Killing Intent?
If he offended such a terrifying person, his skin might split and flesh could burst open any minute, being skinned alive. Therefore, as the most cunning and least authoritative among the four, Bamboo Pole didn't even think before rushing over to mediate.
As for the other two, he couldn't care less about them; their relationship was only limited to this one mission anyway. But Hao Jian was different! With such strength, once a mission like this was completed, his status would definitely soar. If he could bask even slightly in his glory, that would be super beneficial!
"Go away."
Hao Jian waved his hand dismissively, impatiently telling him to leave. He had seen people who change faces faster than flipping a book, but he had never seen anyone as complete and quick as Bamboo Pole.
Furthermore, the matter at hand still involved dealing with these people, Lion was already disabled by him, and at least in the short term, he couldn't regain his strength. And Bamboo Pole, from the attitude he displayed just now, even if he surrendered, that only left these two men...
His gaze slowly moved, resting on these two people. They seemed to be brothers, always inseparable; even their walking rhythms were identical. This made Hao Jian wonder if they were twins.
But about these, Hao Jian had no idea since these two had always worn masks, and those comedic ones at that. Hence, he didn't know who these two actually were.
He didn't possess any X-Ray Vision abilities, and now he had dealt with Lion and Bamboo Pole, only these two remained. It's time to see if these two would read the situation. If they still weren't satisfied, then he would simply eliminate them.
Being in Los Angeles now, even if he disposed of these people, when Hao Jian completes the mission and returns home, he could just tell those people they were killed during the mission.
However, this approach is only to be used as a last resort.
"Conform or resist, it doesn't matter to me, you choose."
Hao Jian looked casually at the two, then said, "If you choose to conform, I need you to take off your masks. I hate having such quirky subordinates around me. And if you choose to resist, this time it won't be as simple as just fainting like this fool."
After speaking, Hao Jian deliberately spread his hands, showing an indifferent expression despite their resistance, but one foot quietly moved back a bit. This way, should these two make any sudden moves, Hao Jian could immediately spring into action.
Whether it was dodging or a sudden fierce attack, he could burst into action instantly, for he didn't quite know how to describe these two's vibe – he only knew they were a bit odd, yet they posed no danger or hostility towards him.
This indeed made Hao Jian quite puzzled. You say surrendering to Lion and showing hostility towards me is one thing, but now that Lion is down, you still show no fear; really can't figure it out.
"Our masks have not been removed for many years. If you want to take off our masks, you'll have to defeat us first..."
One of them slowly got up, their voice emanating from behind the mask, filled with discernible anger. This left Hao Jian somewhat baffled; weren't these guys from Divine Tiger? The stories of them being oppressed by Lion, Hao Jian had overheard from Bamboo Pole, who even talked in his sleep next door, prompting Hao Jian to adopt a 'might as well listen if it's free' attitude, and thus knew how fearful Bamboo Pole was of Lion.
Since even Bamboo Pole was afraid, it was reasonable to expect these two to be as well, but now, the situation seemed muddled. If you say they feared Lion, the angry tone told otherwise.
Was it because of Lion's mistress or some other issue? Or some peculiar fetish?!
"I don't care what your reasons are, you only have two choices in front of you now. One is to submit, to follow my commands, which is legitimate since I have the team leader credentials. If you can't even agree to this..."
"Then I'll just have to take the second route I offer you, which is to defeat me or for me to kill you outright..."
Hao Jian indifferently glanced at the two, ignoring the increasingly intense Killing Intent emanating from their bodies, and continued calmly, "In any case, even if you all die, it won't affect my plans, my actions, although the excuse for returning home will be somewhat problematic, the rest is up to you."
If it weren't for the fact that these two people were still of some use to him, Hao Jian wouldn't bother talking nonsense with them.
"We choose the second path."
As expected, after seeing his strength, these two dared to defy him. Did they really think he wouldn't dare kill them?
At this moment, however, they ignored Ye Nan, bent down to lift Lion up, and ran towards the medical department of this temporary base.
Seeing this, Hao Jian simply shrugged. Lion's fate was of no importance to him now, but the actions of those two did catch his attention. Indeed, brotherhood is brotherhood, much stronger than that Bamboo Pole.
Before he could think further, Bamboo Pole appeared in front of Hao Jian with a flattering expression, causing Hao Jian's brow to furrow slightly. Frowning, he said, "Didn't I tell you to leave? Are you not afraid I'll throw you into the sea right now?"
Despite Hao Jian's words, Bamboo Pole seemed as if he hadn't heard at all, still wearing a flattering smile, continuously spewing out flattering remarks.
"Hehe, boss, I'm now your underling. When has it ever been reasonable for the boss to fight while the underling just watches?"
Bamboo Pole chuckled, then glanced at the two companions who had just entered the gate, turned his head towards Hao Jian and said, "Boss, don't you want to know the identities of those two? I know!"
"You know?"
Hao Jian was somewhat curious what made those two people so peculiar. Initially, he considered forcing them to confess, but after thinking it over, if he accidentally killed those two, he would have no other source of entertainment in Los Angeles apart from the Mercenary Alliance mission.
"Actually, they are twins, and they also have telepathy. However, both of their personalities are somewhat timid yet also somewhat loyal. The one with the butterfly tattoo on his palm is the older brother, Ling Hai, and the other is his younger brother, Ling He."
Bamboo Pole chuckled once more, glanced at those two, and began speaking confidently. Now was his time to show off, so he had to introduce them properly.
Hearing this, Hao Jian was somewhat surprised but nodded and remarked, "They do have quite a background, but they seem a bit clueless about the situation."
If they have telepathy, it wouldn't be hard to explain why their actions were almost identical. As if they were one, coupled with their loyalty, it's not difficult to guess why they still confronted him even after Lion had fallen.
"Hurry up and make a decision. If you want to surrender, then surrender; if not, I will have no choice but to dispose of you. You can then join your boss, I don't have all day to waste here!"
Now that his curiosity was settled and seeing there was nothing intriguing about these two anymore, Hao Jian impatiently waved his hand, dispersing a bit of the Killing Intent from his body, and slowly asserted pressure...
"Buzz buzz buz"
With these words from Hao Jian, Ling Hai immediately felt an impending storm, a faint sense of danger looming.
Their posture gradually set, power swirling around their fists, Ling He also sensed the change in his older brother and subconsciously made the same motions.
"Oh? Haha, quite bold, daring to strike under these circumstances?!" Hao Jian was angered but laughed instead, finding these two utterly insolent. He had given them a choice, yet they seemed prepared to choose death.
"Stop... stop."
Just as Ling Hai and Ling He were about to confront Hao Jian desperately, a weak voice suddenly came from behind them, making them immediately dissipate their momentum and turn around to look at Lion...
"Little Hai, Little He, that's enough. This man is not someone you can handle..." Lion struggled with his injuries, looked at Hao Jian with a resigned smile, cupped his hands, and said, "I really didn't expect your strength to be that formidable, no wonder the minister dispatched you… This time, we've lost. Since we've lost, we'll follow your lead..."
He really hadn't expected that there would be someone in the world who could suppress him with Killing Intent, rendering him completely immobile, something that never even occurred when he fought against top-ranked Mercenary Killers of the world.
Those who had danced on the edge of the knife had never condensed such a Killing Intent, but Hao Jian had, and with such strength, he now understood why the leader was him.
