Chapter 233: Surplus Value

Emond stood behind the bar, silent for a long time.

He weighed the difference in strength between the two sides in his mind.

Then, he gritted his teeth and pulled out a knife for chiseling ice from behind the bar.

The woman holding the black knife was shocked when she saw this: "Captain, are you really going to..."

Before he finished speaking.

Edmond had already made up his mind and cut off one of his little fingers.

Then, enduring the pain, he slowly raised his head and squeezed out a faint smile to Li Yang:

"I hope this will satisfy you a little bit."

Li Yang smiled and nodded, raised his hand and removed the green plants that were all over the bar.

After losing the restraint of the plants, the weak guys on the side fell to the ground one after another.

But after regaining their freedom, no one dared to act rashly.

Among the people present, not even one guy dared to get up and run out.

Everyone stared at Li Yang in front of the bar with trepidation, fearing that Shennong from China would do something unimaginable and cruel again.

Two of the "Four Heavenly Kings" that the locals feared were eliminated in a blink of an eye.

Li Yang's strength is naturally beyond doubt.

Seeing that Li Yang had no intention of attacking, Edmond finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With the help of the black knife woman, he treated his wounds.

At the same time, he also asked Li Yang about the purpose of coming here:

"I don't know why Shennong from China would travel thousands of miles across the ocean to appear in a remote town like ours?"

"If you need anything, you might as well tell me?"

Li Yang glanced at him and said:

"I came to the Ugly Country to find someone."

"There is a guy named Agrus, do you know him?"

Hearing this, everyone in the tavern looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

How to say it.

They all know this name.

Isn't it a demigod in mythology?

But what Li Yang is looking for is definitely not something illusory.

Edmond frowned slightly, and after a while of silence, he said:

"I'm sorry, if you are looking for a specific person or thing, I'm afraid we can't provide any useful information for the time being."

Seeing Li Yang's expression gradually become serious.

Edmond quickly added:

"But... we can also mobilize some connections to help you collect some information about Agrus."

"It's just that our town is too remote, information is blocked, and transportation is backward."

"So if you want to collect useful information, I'm afraid you have to wait patiently for a while."

"In the meantime, you might as well stay in this town for a while."

"I will have someone prepare the best room for you and provide the most abundant food every day."

"You can also try our specialty cactus wine by the way. I believe you will not be disappointed..."

In every gesture, he is like a warm host.

If Li Yang hadn't known the identity of this guy in advance, he might have been fooled by his appearance.

But according to Li Yang's observations during this period, the people of Pterodactyl are cruel and violent, and lawlessness is the norm.

If it weren't for Edmond's agreement, those guys wouldn't be so strong.

If Li Yang wasn't Shennong, but an ordinary passerby.

I'm afraid he would have died in the forest long ago.

Li Yang actually wanted to get rid of this so-called Pterodactyl.

But thinking carefully, regardless of whether Edmond is sincere or not, there is no problem with his attitude of cooperating with himself now.

Rather than wandering around the huge Ugly Country like a headless fly by himself.

It's better to use this town as a starting point to establish his own intelligence network.

When the tentacles extend far enough, there is no worry about not finding the information he wants.

Anyway, it's not too late to deal with the Pterodactyls after their value is squeezed out.

So, facing Edmond's request.

Li Yang nodded and accepted it happily.

Emond breathed a sigh of relief, bowed quickly, and said respectfully:

"Then I will ask someone to prepare a room for you in the hotel in the town in advance."

"The hotel is at the end of this street, you can see it when you walk to the end."

"In order not to cause your disgust, I will not send my servants to bother you."

"The tavern you destroyed needs to be repaired, so please forgive me for not being able to see you off."

"You can move freely in the town, I promise you that no one within a hundred miles will dare to take advantage of you again."

Li Yang smiled and slowly stood up. "You know that's not what I want."

Emond nodded quickly: "Of course, of course."

"I will arrange for people to search for information about Agrus."

"When the time comes, I will process all the information in one go, and hand it over to you after it is neatly stored."

"During this time in the town, no matter what you need, you can come to the tavern to find me at any time."

"The Pterodactyl Hunter Group will provide you with the most sincere service."

As he said this, Edmond, who was wearing a neat black suit, bent down and bowed elegantly to Li Yang.

Li Yang also waved his hand: "You'd better move quickly, I don't have much patience."

After saying that, he casually glanced at the people around him who dared not breathe loudly.

He called Baihu and left the tavern together.

He kept watching Li Yang's back disappear at the other end of the street.

The people in the tavern finally breathed a sigh of relief and knelt on the ground one after another.

The black knife woman was almost exhausted. After barely getting up a little, she staggered and fell directly to the ground.

Looking at Edmond, who was wiping his wine glass with a gloomy face behind the bar, she gritted her teeth and said viciously:

"Captain Edmond."

"Are we just...giving up?"

"That Chinese kid, even if he is the famous Shennong...as long as he is still a job changer, he is definitely not invincible, right?"

"Maybe...we can assassinate him."

"Kill him secretly while he is sleeping and defenseless..."

"Among the four kings, there are me and the gunman Ruisen."

"We are both good at stealth and assassination. This is in our territory. If we are fully prepared..."

She and Ruisen have carried out many similar special missions together, and they have never failed without exception.

But before she finished, she was choked by Edmond's cold voice:

"Rui Sen was killed by Shen Nong a long time ago. Now, you are the only one who survived among the four."

"This Shen Nong is not an existence we can face..."

"Don't think about doing anything to him, you won't succeed."

"First calm him down temporarily and try to please him as much as possible. I have my own plan for how to deal with him later."

After saying that, Edmond glanced at his broken finger inadvertently.

Although he was still calm on the surface, his heart was already in turmoil.
