The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?
Chapter 748 - 521 Chairman: "How much does the company give you? I’ll give you 10 times.

Chapter 748: Chapter 521 Chairman: "How much does the company give you? I’ll give you 10 times.

Even with Liu Zheng’s sword technique, he could think of three ways to hack Doppler into a human stake in an instant.

However, he remained as immovable as a mountain.

"Heh."

Liu Zheng sneered.

Showing your back is nothing, not even willing to invest in setting a trap.

When he lures the enemy, his tentacle and hoof would be constantly cut off, he feels embarrassed cutting others.

"Coward."

Doppler turned around and gave him the middle finger, then returned to his seat.

"How much did Metropolis Culture offer?"

asked the Antlered Insect.

"The starting amount is two hundred thousand, the more I kill, the more I earn. If I take you down, it’s a one-time payment of five million."

Liu Zheng replied honestly.

"My life is only worth five million? Metropolis Culture is really getting smaller and smaller in its scope. Indeed, my decision to leave back then was the right one."

said Antlered Insect disdainfully.

"I agree. Seeing your stature, your eloquence, your large horns, you must be worth at least a hundred million."

He deeply agreed.

"You have good foresight. I’ve heard of your name, Liu Zheng. Although I don’t think you can kill me, I don’t see a necessity for us to clash either."

"You may adhere to unconventional beliefs, but personally, I don’t like the things they enjoy either. All my joy comes from business success, and I came to the 11th floor mainly to rest with the aid of the Insect Nest."

"I can’t deny I’ve done some things you may find dirty, but probably not to the extent you’d be righteously indignant."

"So, you coming to kill me, there’s no other reason besides profit."

Antlered Insect spoke eloquently.

"Indeed."

Liu Zheng admitted.

"So?"

"Therefore, why don’t we make a deal? Whatever Metropolis Culture offered you, I’ll offer double to buy my life. And I’ll give you double again, that’s buying Metropolis Culture’s life."

"Lastly, I’ll offer you a position as a security advisor. You don’t have to report to work, but the benefits equal a deputy director."

"Added together, this is enough for you to achieve what others can’t in ten lifetimes, immediately becoming a member of the upper class."

"Whether you want to indulge in luxury and pleasure or help the poor and uphold justice, you can enjoy it to your heart’s content."

"Manager Shui has worked under me for so long, he should know my character by now. I, President Lin, never deviate from my word, whether with business partners or subordinates."

Antlered Insect offered his price.

Liu Zheng glanced at Shui Sishisan, who nodded silently.

"The price offered by President Lin is very tempting, unfortunately, I am also a man who keeps his word."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

Reputation is also a crucial reason he thrives in Metropolis.

Even if it’s true as Antlered Insect said, that his actions do not give Liu Zheng a reason to necessarily kill him.

But similarly, Liu Zheng also has no reason to spare him.

Money alone is not enough to make him give up his principles.

After all, in front of those truly influential figures, money can’t buy life.

"Alright. Kill the two of them in five minutes, Doppler, and I’ll pay you triple."

Antlered Insect said swiftly.

"What if it’s done in three minutes?"

Doppler was not satisfied.

"Five times."

"What if in one minute?"

Doppler licked his lips.

"Ten times. If you keep wasting time, I’ll start counting the time now."

Antlered Insect said impatiently.

"Such an impatient employer."

Doppler shook his head, raised his two-handed sword, and casually twirled it into a flourish.

"So, for you two..."

The sword light suddenly exploded, like the simultaneous detonation of a dozen flash bombs.

"Go die now."

Before the light of the flash bomb faded, a gust of wind had already reached Liu Zheng’s face.

The intense light combined with the blast made it impossible for him to open his eyes, with tears streaming down uncontrollably.

Instinctively, he swung his sword forward, but it slashed only through air.

"Damn!"

Liu Zheng knew something was wrong, immediately spun urgently, raising his rear hoof high.

It was an "abrupt kick".

"Huh?"

A slightly perplexed voice sounded, and the gust of wind suddenly came and went.

Liu Zheng didn’t care for this or that, turned around, and flailed four tentacles wildly, retreating as he swung.

"Four o’clock direction!"

Shui Sishisan suddenly shouted.

Without hesitation, he swung three swords together towards the four o’clock direction.

The sawtoothed butcher knife cut vertically, the Dragon Scale Blade sliced horizontally, the Insect Killing Dagger stabbed straight.

"Clang!"

As the short weapons met, the enormous force made Liu Zheng’s knee buckle, almost kneeling onto the Fungal Blanket.

"I kneel to your mother!"

Rage surged within him, forcing open eyes that were blinded by the flash, blood tears streaming on both sides.

Muscles that had already expanded expanded again, even the exoskeleton-like skin was pushed up by the muscles, red blood flowing along the fissures like rocks cracked by molten lava.

The sudden surge of strength supported his knees and straightened his spine.

"Hah!"

Liu Zheng grasped the sawtoothed butcher knife with the fourth idle tentacle and thrust it forward, while his right hoof slightly raised, covertly and quickly kicking towards what should be the opponent’s frontal bone position.

In terms of sword technique, he might be thoughtlessly slashing, but in terms of fist technique, he had genuine training.

This kick is from the leg technique called the "scythe kick". If the leg is raised higher with a hip twist and waist contraction, then it’s a leg technique full of malice, "Yellow dog peeing".

Of course, even without the cohesive force from hip twisting and waist contracting, this kick is powerful enough to smash an entire rock.

However, this kick landed with not the hard and brittle feeling of a frontal bone, but as if it stepped onto cotton.
