Chapter 175: One-Hit Kill
Jiang Junxi, the captain of the Xingyue, stood at the front of the deck, looking down at the passengers sitting on the deck.
Jiang Junxi, who was holding a weapon, changed his appearance from the amiable uncle next door. His eyes, which were usually slightly squinted with a smile, were now fully open. His eyes were full of fierceness, like a wild beast choosing its prey.
Wherever he looked, the passengers lowered their heads, not daring to look at him. The high school students would even tremble in fright when they saw him.
Jiang Junxi said in a cold voice:
"Everyone should be aware of the situation that the Star Leap is encountering at this moment. We did not escape from the cage at sea, but just changed from a small cage to a larger cage."
"We must take measures to save ourselves in time, otherwise we will disappear in this sea like the two ghost ships we have seen."
The faces of the passengers present showed panic. Although they were aware of it, they still had some illusions in case they could escape.
At this moment, the captain himself said that they were trapped in this sea area, which made the passengers completely worried.
The more critical the situation, the more the weak will follow the strong, hoping to follow the strong and be led out of the predicament.
In the face of danger, the weak are more afraid that no one will stand up and take responsibility than being dominated and oppressed by the strong.
Mr. Nice Guy cannot solve the current predicament. If they want to tide over the difficulties, they need an aggressive and strong enough leader.
Thinking of this, people's eyes began to change, and the eyes they looked at Jiang Junxi changed from fear to kindness.
Jiang Junxi noticed the changes in everyone, and a smile appeared on his lips. At this point, the matter has been 80% successful.
He said coldly: "As the captain of the Star Leap and the person in charge of this route, I have the responsibility and obligation to lead everyone back to land safely. For everyone's safety, individual interests and freedom, we must make a decision concession!"
"From now on, the Xingyue is under control. I don't care whether you are a student or an old man, a man or a woman, what religion you believe in, or how noble your status is outside. You must accept the management of me and First Officer Li Yuanzhi, and obey us. "
Having said this, Jiang Junxi raised his head and looked at the New Universe Sect believers on the fourth deck and the VIPs in the reception room on the fifth floor.
He said loudly: "I will only repeat it once. No matter how much you don't understand our instructions or how unwilling you are, I don't want to hear any questioning voices. From this moment on, only one voice is allowed on the ship!"
"That's my Jiang Junxi's voice!"
After saying this, he looked at the passengers in front of him. A few people who had been inserted into the crowd began to applaud. The passengers subconsciously followed suit. Even if some people were reluctant, everyone around them was applauding, and He looked at him with strange eyes, and those who didn't applaud had no choice but to follow him.
Park Changmin gave the believers a look, and the believers on the fourth floor began to applaud.
The VIPs on the fifth floor did not want to agree with Jiang Junxi's words, but they were in an unknown sea at this moment, and more than 90% of the people on the ship were standing on one side. The other party had both men and weapons, so resisting was not a wise move.
Just like that, the distinguished guests on the fifth floor also started applauding.
Applause means approval of Jiang Junxi's status as a leader, or dictator.
Dang Dang Dang.
Just as the applause was getting louder and louder, and the slaps of the passengers were about to turn red, the sound of iron plates hitting the metal fence came from above the crowd.
Everyone looked up and saw Wu Chang, wearing a nightgown and holding a cigar, standing on the balcony of the seventh-floor suite, hitting the railing with a baseball bat.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, he put down his baseball bat, waved his hand towards Jiang Junxi, as if commanding his subordinates, and said:
"Come up here, and Bishop Park, too."
Jiang Junxi had just sworn in front of the passengers that this ship had his voice, and he was immediately shouted at by Wu Chang, which was a slap in his face.
His bad temper suddenly came out. If Wu Chang hadn't been arranged, how would he be able to convince the public in the future?
But just as he was about to speak, the first mate Li Yuanzhi grabbed his arm and shook his head slightly.
Li Zaishi is not an ordinary rich second generation, but a top chaebol in the Takagi Kingdom. He has many interests behind him, especially his Xingtian Group, which is also the largest financial backer of the New Universe Sect.
You can't touch him unless it's absolutely necessary, or if Park Changmin doesn't say anything.
Jiang Junxi clenched his fists, his face was livid, he snorted and walked upstairs, followed closely by Li Yuanzhi, who went up together.
Jiang Junxi had made up his mind. Even if Park Changmin was protecting him, he would still kill Li Zaishi's spirit. The Xingyue was his ship, and he had to let this chaebol know who the big and small kings were.
The two came to the balcony on the seventh floor and sat at a round table drinking coffee on the balcony. The negotiator and Great White Shark were now wearing maid outfits and acting as waiters, serving coffee to several people.
Life is not easy, players perform tricks.
Although they were reluctant, they were worried that Wu Chang, the boss, was in danger, so they could only hold their noses and accept the job.
"Please use your coffee slowly."
Jiang Junxi raised his head and glanced at the master negotiator. Facing the maid who was more than a head taller than him and more imposing than him, part of the momentum he had accumulated was instantly released.
"Thanks."
Jiang Junxi took a sip of coffee to relieve his embarrassment, then raised his head and glanced at Park Changmin, giving a questioning look.
Park Changmin gave him an innocent look in return, indicating that this was not arranged by him, and he looked confused.
Wu Chang picked up the coffee, took a leisurely sip, and said slowly:
"I'm calling a few of you up this time. There's something I want you to cooperate with."
Park Changmin still smiled apologetically, and as long as Wu Chang didn't make any excessive moves, he wasn't prepared to take the lead in breaking up.
But Jiang Junxi's complexion changed slightly, and he realized that Wu Changlai was evil.
What made him even more angry was that Wu Chang's eyes were on Park Changmin the whole time, and he didn't pay attention to him at all, as if he, the captain and the leader of the Xingyue at the moment, was nothing.
Wu Chang continued: "First of all, please allow me to apologize. If nothing else, everyone on the ship must have been implicated by me."
As soon as this explosive opening statement came out, Park Changmin and Jiang Junxi were stunned for an instant. As the designers and implementers of the plan, they wanted to say, "Why didn't I know this happened?"
Wu Chang picked up the pot and said in a tone that had seen through everything:
"You don't feel that this is normal. My trip has been accompanied by coincidences from the beginning, and it feels like it was seriously designed. Those assassins first sabotaged my ship, lured me onto the ship, and then By secretly manipulating the ship, the Star Leap came to this sea area."
"Obviously they were after me."
Park Changmin, Jiang Junxi:?
Park Changmin couldn't hold himself any longer. He resisted the urge to expose the plan to correct Wu Chang, and whispered:
"Is this just an accident? Or is it not targeting President Li, but everyone on the ship?"
Wu Chang shook his head and said: "This is definitely not an accident. I can smell the conspiracy. Every time I am assassinated, I can smell this smell in advance. As for who the conspiracy is against..."
Wu Chang showed a confident smile, "This conspiracy involves a large cruise ship and thousands of passengers. On this ship, I am the only one worthy of making the other party pay such a high price, not even Li Yubin."
Park Changmin and Jiang Junxi now understood that Wu Chang was a narcissist with severe persecution delusions.
Normal people cannot communicate with psychopaths, so the two planned to follow Wu Chang first to see what he wanted to do.
Park Changmin asked carefully: "What are your plans, President Li?"
Wu Chang put down his coffee cup, stood up from his seat, walked behind Park Changmin, pressed his hands on the back of Park Changmin's chair, and said softly:
"I have two characteristics. One is that I don't hold grudges, and the other is that I pay attention to safety and quality. Holding grudges is a waste of energy. I will catch all the guys who want to attack me before disembarking and let them stay in the sea forever. "
Speaking of this, Wu Chang glanced at Jiang Junxi intentionally or unintentionally, making Jiang Junxi instantly nervous.
"Focusing on safety and quality means I will never put my safety in the hands of anyone other than myself."
Jiang Junxipin revealed Wu Chang's intention. It was obvious that he wanted to seize power.
But who is Jiang Junxi? Not to mention Lee Jae-se, not even Park Chang-min can try to take his ship away from him.
He toughened his tone and said: "We are all professional crew members. We spend many times more time at sea than on land every year. We are professionals. President Li, you should trust us."
Poof.
Wu Changle made a sound, as if he had just discovered Jiang Junxi sitting here, and said with disdain:
"What I'm talking about now is not about navigation, but about my safety. You are just a sailor, so why should I trust you?"
"I..." Jiang Junxi was a little angry. The idiot of the second generation of the chaebol family in front of him made him physically uncomfortable. Didn't this idiot know that this was on the sea, and he had just gained control of the ship? ?
If Li Yuanzhi hadn't pulled him and Park Changmin sat next to him, he would have asked someone to kill Wu Chang.
Since Wu Chang was so open-minded, he wasn't going to pretend anymore.
He himself looked down upon social worms like Li Zaishi and had no habit of licking these plutocrats. Park Changmin next to him acted like he had nothing to do with him. If he blindly cooperated with Li Zaishi to play house, The plan went awry, and he was the one who took the blame in the end.
"President Li, let me get it straight. I am the only captain here. I am not the sailor, but the person in charge of this ship. Everyone, including you, needs to listen to my instructions. If you If you have any objections, you can get off the boat and complain to me.”
Wu Chang curled his lips, walked around from behind Park Changmin to his side, and asked, "Bishop Park, what do you think?"
Park Changmin smiled dryly and said: "I am just a devout believer. I believe everything is arranged by the Lord. I will not make any interference with destiny."
Wu Chang left Park Changmin and returned to his seat. He sighed.
His left hand was placed on the coffee table, tapping the tabletop rhythmically. Several people present unconsciously looked at his fingers tapping the tabletop.
"In that case..."
The next moment, he swung the bat with his right hand from under the table. The bat flashed with electric light, as fast as lightning, and hit Jiang Junxi's temple. Jiang Junxi's head exploded on the spot like a watermelon, and red juice splashed out. Everywhere.
It may seem like an understatement, but it's actually not that simple.
First of all, a large amount of thunder power was added to this stick. After the thunder method was upgraded to B and he completely mastered the practice method, he was able to freely use the energy in his body. Half of the energy in his body was injected into the bat.
Injecting half the energy is only the upper limit of what the bat can bear, not his upper limit.
Secondly, activating his Sea Serpent transformation.
After the sea snake transformed, his energy attributes increased by 50%, bringing his energy attributes to 124!
With 124 points of energy-converted thunder spirit power, combined with his 56 strength and 50 agility, whoever gets hit by this stick will be confused.
In addition, when he used his fingers to attract the attention of several people, he also activated the power of Iaido.
"Skill Name: Iaido"
"Skill Level: B"
"Skill description: Accumulate energy to enhance the next attack. The effect can be superimposed with other skills. The enhancement effect depends on the charging time. The upper limit of the charging increase is three seconds, and the maximum damage increase multiplier is three times."
"Remarks: A true master will instantly defeat the enemy and kill with one strike!"
While he was pretending to hesitate, he filled up the three-second limit of Iaido.
In the end, Jiang Junxi didn't expect that the head of the Xingtang Xingtian Group would be so careless and kill people at the slightest disagreement.
Through mental arithmetic and unintentional calculation, this stick achieved the description in the notes of Iaido, killing with one hit!
Seeing Jiang Junxi's head suddenly exploded, everyone on the boat was stunned.
Pu Changmin was shocked by Wu Chang's ruthlessness and lack of rules. For people in Gaomu who lacked history, they had never heard of the Hongmen Banquet.
Even if he had heard of it, he would never have thought that the richest and most powerful young man in Gaomu Country would actually throw a banquet for a stinky sailor, and even do it himself. Does he still need the dignity of the upper class?
The Negotiator and Great White Shark were shocked by Wu Chang's concealment.
They originally thought they were arranged here, pretending to be maids and waiters, waiting for Wu Chang to break the cup as a signal to attack Jiang Junxi.
Unexpectedly, the boss didn't need the two of them at all, so he took care of the matter himself, and he did it neatly.
The stick just now, even if it didn't hit them, made them feel suffocated just by looking at it from a distance.
That stick was full of power, powerful, concealed, and without murderous intent. As players, they unconsciously thought about what they would do if they were attacked.
The answer is obvious, their fate will not be much better than Jiang Junxi's.
The numerical value that can kill players instantly is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that Wu Chang showed no hostility or murderous intention before taking action.
This means that either he has minute control over his own aura and can isolate it from other people's perception; or that for him, killing is as simple as eating and drinking, just like when a person kills a flying insect casually, there will be no fluctuation in his heart.
The negotiator thought that her judgment could not lock Wu Chang at all, and thought of a more terrifying possibility, that is, Wu Chang had both situations.
Their boss isn't really the BOSS, is he?
Wu Chang, who blew up Jiang Junxi with a bat, waved the bat to shake off the blood, sat down on his seat again, and said helplessly:
"No one drinks coffee without wearing a helmet."
Park Changmin looked at the bat in Wu Chang's hand, swallowed hard, and said in a dry voice:
"President Li, what are you doing?"
Wu Chang glanced at Jiang Junxi's headless body with disgust and said confidently:
"Bishop Park, you heard it too. I politely negotiated with him to let me manage the ship, and the sailor continued to sail his ship, but he didn't agree and insisted that I listen to him."
"I manage the Xingtian Group and the Xingcai Gang. He is a sailor. If he doesn't have malicious intentions, why would he dare to let me listen to him?"
This sentence stopped Pu Changmin. Wu Chang's words seemed to make some sense. No matter in terms of status or ability and qualifications, Jiang Junxi was incomparable with Li Zaishi. If it was really for the sake of the passengers on the ship, why did he have to ask Li Zaishi? Zai Shi listens to him?
wrong!
Pu Changmin frowned. He was involved by Wu Chang, and he began to look for the murderer like Wu Chang, based on the premise that "there are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me."
If the incident that the Star Leap is encountering is regarded as an ordinary shipwreck, then Jiang Junxi's behavior is just that of a stubborn captain, and he is not destined to die.
"But……"
Wu Chang interrupted Park Changmin with a smile, "Nothing to worry about. I said before that I will not let go of anyone who wants to threaten my safety. I gave him a chance just now."
Park Changmin's voice was dry. Like a rusty robot, he stiffly turned his head to look at First Officer Li Yuanzhi.
"President Li, then he..."
Wu Chang smiled and said lightly: "I want to die too."
Li Yuanzhi didn't expect Wu Changshi to be so brilliant. He didn't say a word during the whole process, and even grabbed Jiang Junxi several times, which ended up causing him to die.
He kicked the round table over, turned around and rushed towards the fence, intending to jump to the third floor. He used the passengers who had just agreed with them to stop Wu Chang, and at the same time shouted:
"Xi Ba! Bishop Park save me..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yuanzhi, who had already crossed half of the balcony and reached into the air, was chased by a baseball bat flying from behind. He was accurately hit in the back of the head by the baseball bat, causing the loyal first mate to follow his captain.
Li Yuanzhi, whose head exploded, froze in the air. The passengers on the third and fourth decks all looked up following his shouts.
The next moment, they saw the first mate, who had been so high-spirited just now, fall straight from the seventh floor and hit the deck of the third floor.
Thanks to Jianxing's quick eyesight and quick hands, he promptly cleared away the passengers at the landing point, so no one was injured in Wu Chang's unethical falling object from high altitude.
Wu Chang patted his palms twice as if cleaning dust. He took his eyes away from Li Yuanzhi who flew out of the balcony, turned to look at Park Changmin, and asked with confusion on his face:
"Bishop Park, he seemed to be calling you just now. Between you two..."
Jiang Junxi's brain was still wet on Pu Changmin's face. When he met Wu Chang's eyes, he quickly shook his head and cleared the relationship.
"I'm not familiar with them. Our interactions are limited to the past two days when they wanted to join the church and asked me to baptize them."
Wu Chang nodded, "Then I will manage the affairs on the Xingyue..."
If he had known that Wu Chang would do this, Park Changmin might have tried to stop him for his original plan.
But now both Jiang Junxi and Li Yuanzhi are dead. Dead people are worthless. It is too late to regret. He can only say:
"Of course I have no objection. I have always admired President Li's ability. If it is useful, President Li can give orders and our New Universe Sect will definitely cooperate!"
After hearing this, Wu Chang smiled very happily, stood up and patted Park Changmin on the shoulder.
"I know you are reliable, Bishop Park. I need to control all the crew members below and strictly investigate the accomplices of Jiang Junxi and others. There will be a shortage of crew members on the ship in the past two days. Bishop Park, please think of a way to select a few people from among the believers. Come out, let’s start the boat.”
Park Changmin: "Huh?"
Wu Chang didn't care about Park Changmin who was standing there blankly. Great White Shark could indeed sail the ship through talent, but it was not the time for her to appear yet.
With Park Changmin's style of doing things, it is now confirmed that Jiang Junxi and others are harboring evil intentions. These crew members were detained by him, and Park Changmin would never dare to arrest them.
The ship stopped at the wreckage zone and remained motionless. If the sacrificial ceremony was delayed, Park Changmin and the Serenity Church behind him would definitely be much more anxious than him.
Whoever is in a hurry must find a way.
In order to solve the problem of sailing the ship, the New Universe Sect must reveal something new. If there is no other way, it would be best if they reveal a way to freely enter and exit the shipwreck zone.
Watching Wu Chang walking towards the third floor, the master negotiator and Jaws, who were cleaning the floor with a mop, looked at each other in confusion.
No, this is it?
You have solved all the problems by yourself, so what is the point of arranging them here?
You don't just want them to put on maid outfits and actually act as waiters, right?
Wu Chang went down from the seventh floor to the third floor. He picked up the bloody baseball bat on the ground and saw the four King Kongs, Jianxing, Shadow and others on the side, controlling all the original crew members on the ship.
Several crew members noticed something was wrong and wanted to take the opportunity to jump into the sea and escape, but were blocked by players arranged by Li Yubin.
In just three minutes, all the crew members of the Star Leap were caught, tied up like rice dumplings, and thrown into the cargo hold, waiting for further screening and interrogation by the Great White Shark.
Her special effect of causing extra damage to the navy should also increase torture.
Wu Chang shook his head and suppressed the curiosity in his heart. He looked at the frightened passengers and took out the pretense of being the underground emperor of Gaomu Kingdom.
"Everyone here may have heard my name, but in reality no one has seen me. Let me introduce myself briefly. I, Li Zaishi, am the chairman of Xingtian Group and the controller of Xingcai Gang."
As Wu Chang said, his self-introduction was very brief, but these two titles were enough to calm the passengers on the ship.
"Jiang Junxi's bunch of losers want to use this incident to harm the ship. I have already dealt with them."
"Unlike these scumbags, you don't have to worry about me having any plans for you, because there is nothing in you that is worthy of my intentions."
"Finally, my principle is very simple and easy to remember. That is to maintain order and stability. As long as it does not violate the rules I have set, I will not interfere too much with you. But trust me, don't disturb Order, you don’t want to experience the consequences of distracting me and breaking my rules.”
After Wu Chang finished speaking, there was no need for anyone to lead him, and the passengers spontaneously applauded.
Although Wu Chang's words were unpleasant, the fact was just like what he said. He looked down on them, so he would not have any ulterior motives for them.
After completing his speech and gaining everyone's approval, Wu Chang successfully seized control of the Star Leap, and the power ranking list changed accordingly.
Oops, I feel like I'm stuck in a strange loop. Why no matter what time I start writing, I end up stuck at 23:58-59 and finish coding.
