Chapter 485 New Discovery
Killing someone and destroying their heart, this is a very high level.
Since coming to this town, Su Xia has seen a similar thing once.
In the arena of the Colosseum, the father and son were forced to kill each other, and only one of them could survive. This was a heart-breaking act.
Those bloody knives not only cut into the two men's bodies, but also into their souls, making them painful and twisted, and almost collapsing.
And now, something similar is likely to happen to the South Wind Organization.
If Wang Teng used the hypnosis method he mentioned, this would very likely become a reality.
"Faced with the sharp blades of their former companions, what choice should the members of the South Wind Organization make?"
Will they kill their hypnotized companions with all the pain, or will they not be able to do it and would rather get hurt or even die?
This is a very painful decision.
No matter which choice they make, it will be a double destruction to their body and mind.
When he thought of this, Su Xia felt unhappy. After all, the Nanfeng Organization was the organization he founded personally.
To be honest, even the North Wind Organization was not founded by him personally, but by the former North Wind commander. Su Xia merely rebuilt the North Wind Organization.
Su Xia was very pleased with the development of the Nanfeng organization in recent times.
Su Xia certainly didn't want to see the brothers killing each other.
At present, the only good news is that Su Xia has searched more than 80% of the town area and read a large number of character descriptions, but still has not found any members of the Nanfeng organization.
Therefore, the method that Wang Teng just mentioned may not have been implemented, but was just an idea in his mind.
Thinking of this, Su Xia looked at Wang Teng and said in an appreciative tone: "The method that Brother Wu said is indeed difficult, but this just proves the ingenuity of Brother Wu's thinking. As long as you work hard and try to show off in front of those big shots when you go up to spend money, you may get a chance to leave here."
"Brother Qiao, thank you for the compliment. I was just saying it casually." Wang Teng acted embarrassed and forced a smile.
"Brother Qiao Tu, don't raise Brother Wu's psychological expectations too high." The old mercenary suddenly spoke, speaking lightly.
"Yes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment."
"If you can't get in in the future, how will you resolve the expectations in Brother Wu's heart?"
"Brother Qiao, not everyone is like you..."
Several mercenaries spoke up one after another. Although their expressions did not change, there was still a hint of accusation in their tone.
Just now, the method Wang Teng mentioned did shock them a little.
With Wang Teng's intelligence, he shouldn't have ended up here.
Even though his combat capability was not strong and he could not face the Nanfeng Organization or other enemies head-on in the front, he would have no problem staying in the rear and acting as a military strategist.
What the wilderness lacks the least is guys with strong limbs; what it lacks are members with quick and intelligent minds.
As long as Wang Teng’s intelligence is noticed by the people above, he will definitely be able to leave here.
Therefore, several mercenaries began to blame Su Xia, accusing him of not making the matter clear.
If Wang Teng really gets promoted, then those of them who stay at the bottom will become a real joke, which will make them feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Brother Wu's plan is indeed brilliant, but it cannot be implemented. What will the bosses above think when they hear about this plan?" asked the old mercenary.
"Maybe they won't praise Brother Wu, but will scold him instead!"
"Yes, those bosses up there are moody, and their tempers are just like the weather in the wilderness, changing at any time. If you make them unhappy, even if you are a small one, you may not be able to keep your life even if you get scolded!"
A few mercenaries who were playing badly used the same method again.
Threaten Wang Teng and make him give up the idea of going up!
When they first came here, they had thought about going up, but they were also intimidated by the older mercenaries.
They themselves have fallen into this quagmire step by step, how can they let Wang Teng climb out?
"But I think it's a waste of talent for Brother Wu to stay here," Su Xia said seriously.
"It's just an idea. Maybe Brother Wu just has a sudden inspiration?" said the old mercenary.
"Yes, Brother Wu, do you have any other ideas?"
Several people looked at Wang Teng again with questioning expressions.
Wang Teng seemed to be in a dilemma. He looked at Su Xia, then at the old mercenary, scratched his hair, opened his mouth slightly, and looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
His micro-expressions and action performances were all very spot-on, portraying a newcomer to the fullest.
Anyone who is not a stupid newcomer can see the friction between Su Xia's identity and the other mercenaries.
No matter which side you lean towards, you will offend the other side.
If you want to get through the initial period here smoothly, it is best not to offend either side. This is what a newcomer should do most, but also the most difficult thing to do.
After a while, Wang Teng said cautiously: " There are , but they are all very ordinary. I haven't eaten anything today, and I'm hungry. My brain is not very smart. I'm really sorry that I can't think of a better one."
This excuse is pretty good.
He said he couldn't think of a better way in order not to offend the old mercenaries.
He said that he was hungry and his brain was not working well so as not to offend Su Xia's current identity.
By the time he had lunch, the topic had long been over, and neither side would bring it up again unless they were deliberately trying to embarrass him.
After all, we all live in this underground space together. We'll see each other sooner or later. There's no need to make the relationship too awkward.
Sure enough, after Wang Teng finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became much more relaxed.
The old mercenary smiled and patted his head, saying, "Brother Wu, you are still young, how can you go hungry? Why didn't you tell me earlier that you didn't eat? We don't have much else here, but we have plenty of food, and it's free. Eat as much as you want!"
"Eat as much as you want...?"
Wang Teng seemed to be interested. He swallowed and a hint of desire flashed in his eyes.
He was very thin and his face was sallow, looking as if he had not eaten enough for years.
"Are those what we eat?" Wang Teng suddenly pointed to the dirty big iron barrels beside him. The barrels were filled with food distributed to the slaves. Some of the food had not been distributed yet and was in a semi-solidified state of yellowish brown in the barrels.
I don’t know what these foods are made of, but they have a very unpleasant smell, like vomit after drinking. Just smelling it makes people feel nauseous.
Except for those slaves with a strong will to survive, probably no one else could eat this food.
Seeing the worry on Wang Teng's face, several mercenaries laughed.
"Haha, we won't eat that shit. It's for the lowly slaves to eat!" said the old mercenary.
"We can go to the upper floor for meals every day, and we can go directly to the back kitchen to eat. We can take whatever we want to eat, without any restrictions. We just need to avoid those big shots who come down to check occasionally!"
"Go directly to the kitchen to eat?"
Wang Teng made a surprised expression and cooperated very well.
"Of course, what do you think?" The old mercenary said with a smile, "Brothers, we have to feed more than a hundred slaves every day, and we have to make sure they are dead or not. It's so hard, what's wrong with eating more?"
"Yes, this is the right we should have!"
"Brother Wu, looking at your small body, I can tell that you often don't have enough to eat. You don't have to worry about this problem in the future. Eat as much as you want!"
“…”
Several mercenaries chimed in, talking about the benefits of their jobs.
Of course, this isn't really a big benefit.
The reason they can eat in the back kitchen is because they can only eat in the back kitchen.
They are of humble status and are at the bottom of the entire mercenary organization. They dare not eat in regular restaurants or canteens, as they would easily be laughed at and despised if they went there.
The problems caused by this status gap can actually be described by them as benefits.
I have to say that these mercenaries are really strong at heart. While they are doing bad things, they also think of all problems in a positive way. They can live comfortably in such a dark place. They are simply a group of human cockroaches.
Su Xia asked himself, he couldn't do it to this extent.
When he was poor, all he thought about every day was climbing up, climbing non-stop, climbing to a high enough position so that he would never have to go hungry again and would never have to worry about tuition fees again.
Soon, it was time for lunch.
One mercenary was left behind to watch over the slaves, while the rest of the mercenaries took the elevator up to the upper floor.
On the fourth floor below ground, there is a large dining area.
"Brother Wu, come with us!"
The old mercenary walked in front, looking like a leader, and led everyone straight to the kitchen at the back of the area.
The kitchen was very busy, with more than 20 members in chef uniforms, some cutting vegetables, some arranging dishes, and some making desserts. The smells of various foods mixed together, the most intense being the aroma of stir-fried pork kidneys being made by a chef.
After entering, several mercenaries narrowed their eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and all looked very enjoyable, as if they had arrived in heaven.
"Tsk, life..."
There are not many entertainment options in the wilderness, and for mercenaries like them who are short of money, there are almost no entertainment options.
Therefore, eating becomes one of their greatest enjoyments.
In this chaotic era, many people have suffered from hunger, and being able to eat enough is indeed a blessing.
Even on the other side of the Earth, there are many people who do not have enough to eat. You should know that the food produced on the Earth every year is enough for 15 billion people to survive, which is twice the current population. But even so, hundreds of millions of people are still in a state of hunger for a long time.
It's like this over there on Earth, let alone here.
The person in charge of the kitchen glanced at the mercenaries and said calmly, "Brothers, are you here to eat for free again?"
"yes!"
The old mercenary was very thick-skinned and answered with a smile, not caring at all what the person in charge said.
"Each person has a basin, choose your own, squat in the kitchen to eat, and don't go out and be seen by others. You know the rules!" The person in charge pointed to the stainless steel cabinet next to him, where a large stack of stainless steel basins were neatly placed.
The old mercenary went up first, took out a large stainless steel basin from the cupboard, and then added more vegetables and rice to himself.
Several other mercenaries followed suit, and Wang Teng behind them followed suit.
After the food was prepared, everyone squatted in the corner of the kitchen, chatting and eating.
Fortunately, the kitchen was big enough and they didn't feel crowded even when squatting here.
"Brother Wu, how is it? This kind of life is good, right?" a mercenary asked Wang Teng.
"Yeah, it's a good life!"
Wang Teng agreed repeatedly. He seemed to be too hungry. He kept digging food into his mouth and his whole face was almost buried in the basin.
He was like a starving ghost reborn. Soon he had eaten up half the bowl of food. His appetite was truly astonishing.
Su Xia squatted beside him, chatting with Wang Teng in a random manner, trying her best to get some words out of him.
But by the end of the lunch, he hadn't gotten any useful information.
From morning till now, the most useful information is still the hypnosis method that Wang Teng mentioned, whose authenticity is unknown.
During this period, the nanorobots sent out by Su Xia have been working, conducting carpet searches inside and outside the town. Several nearby hills have been searched, but there has not been much gain.
The biggest progress was the discovery of two more infiltration teams from the Nanfeng organization.
There were three teams in total. One team spread the news in the central market for a long time, another team spread the news in various bars, clubs, casinos and other areas, and the other team did not move at all, quietly staying in the north of the town, not far from where the sixteen baits were imprisoned.
The three teams communicated frequently and already knew the exact location of the bait trap, but they could not tell whether it was true or not.
The captains of the three teams were all very smart and rational. They all decided to stay put and not conduct any rescue operations in advance. Instead, they contacted the top leaders of the organization outside the town to ask what to do.
This approach made Su Xia very pleased.
Only with enough rationality can the entire organization go further in the wilderness.
If you are too impulsive, even if you don't fall into the trap this time, you will fall into it next time, and one day you will lose all of yourself and your brothers.
After lunch, the mercenaries returned to the underground and lazily lay on the rocking chairs in the rest area, like a group of old men in their seventies or eighties, just waiting for the arrival of night.
There is no need to feed slaves at noon and in the evening; the breakfast meal is enough for them.
Food is precious, there is no need to feed slaves so much.
Therefore, the lives of these mercenaries are indeed quite comfortable and not as bad as imagined.
As a newcomer, Wang Teng behaved normally and asked seriously: "Brothers, are we all set for today? Don't we have to do anything?"
"Of course, just lie down!" The old mercenary narrowed his eyes and said casually.
"Don't you need to clean?"
"Just clean it every few days. Why do we need to clean it every day? This place is so dark that you can't even tell if it's dirty."
“I see.”
"If you really have nothing to do, just wash those buckets."
"Oh, okay."
Wang Teng nodded, walked honestly to the iron buckets, picked up a dirty iron bucket, and then walked step by step towards the flushing sink.
There was still some food in the bucket that had not been distributed that morning. It was heavy to carry and had a bad smell.
Just a slight shake caused the food in the bucket to slosh, and the odor became even stronger.
Seeing this, Su Xia said in a calm voice: "You guys order Brother Wu around like this?"
"Brother Qiao, it's Brother Wu who can't sit still. He hasn't gotten used to it yet, but he will get used to it in a few days." The old mercenary was too lazy to open his eyes. He lay in the rocking chair and spoke casually with his eyes closed.
"Okay, I'll go help him."
Su Xia got up from the rocking chair and walked towards the sink with an iron bucket.
