Chapter 3 Colonel Hack

emsp;emsp;Dead people are more useful than living ones.

emsp;While Haik was still pondering the meaning of these words, he caught a glimpse of a five-meter tall man named Seti, who was once again bending over to lift two other followers from the ground. Please let me know if there's anything else I can help with!

emsp;The familiar scene caused his pupils to suddenly constrict.

emsp;"Wait..."

emsp;Hake, realizing what was about to happen, was about to speak up to stop it, but the heads of the two followers had already been effortlessly crushed by Seth, as if they were watermelons at the same time.

emsp;emsp;The red and white substance splattered all over, and the smell of blood rushed up through the nostrils to the mind.

emsp;emsp;Having enjoyed a pampered life in a non-military position for many years, Haik had long forgotten the harsh years of fighting on the battlefield. At that moment, he felt his stomach churning violently, unable to hold back, and bent down to vomit uncontrollably.

emsp;emsp;"Don't be impatient."

emsp;emsp;A serene voice drifted in with white smoke, "Endure a little longer, there's more to come. You can save it for later and spit it out all at once."

emsp;Oh?

emsp;Heck looked up in confusion and happened to see Serti lifting up the last person lying on the floor of the carriage. And this remaining follower happened to be the young woman he had spent a lot of money to redeem and take away as his concubine.

emsp;emsp;"Ah!"

emsp;emsp;刚一拎起,车厢里就响起了恐惧的尖叫。

emsp;emsp;也不知道是不是之前的动静太大,这个海克的姘头明显早已醒来,只是一直瑟瑟蜷缩着假装昏迷,此刻在死亡的威胁下,她终于是再也装不下去,睁开了眼。

emsp;emsp;“大……大哥……”

emsp;emsp;面对着瑟提这位刚刚连爆三头的煞神,妙龄女郎恐惧地全身都在颤抖,低低抽泣着哀求起来:

emsp;emsp;"I...I can do anything, whatever you ask me to do, I'll do it. Please...please spare my life...I beg you, I beg you..."

emsp;emsp;“……”

emsp;This towering giant, standing at five meters tall, didn't say a word. Instead, he wore an expression that made him appear foolish, as he looked at the woman he held in his hand. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.

emsp;emsp;“别傻了,大嫂。”

emsp;emsp;瑟提终于开口了,声音低沉的像是从不见光日的海底传来,“我从来不杀女人的。”

; After saying these words, he slowly released his palm.

; "Huh?"

; The young lady sat down, feeling the icy touch of the floor. At first, she was somewhat anxious, but then she saw Seth slowly stepping back. She finally let go of the tension she had been holding, her chest heaving heavily. A sense of joy and choked-up relief surged on her face.

emsp;emsp;“谢,谢谢您,大……”

emsp;emsp;Dong!

emsp;emsp;重锤般的闷响打断了后面的话,血肉模糊的脑袋深深凹陷下去,砸在金属窗框上,再也看不出半点原来的姣好模样。

emsp;emsp;In the next moment.

emsp;emsp;那具妙曼窈窕的身躯无力地向侧边倒去,彻底失去了生机,暴突的眼珠里,还残存着临死前看到拳头扑面而来的惊愕与难以置信。

emsp;Seiti calmly pulled back his fist without any expression, casually flicked off the bloodstains from his hand, and then stood back behind Vito in silence, ignoring the stunned gaze of Haik. Translated: "

emsp;emsp;"Being a chicken for so many years, and still so naive."

emsp;emsp;Vito shook his head, seemingly expecting this scene a long time ago. He flicked away the cigarette ash, glanced at Hake who hadn't snapped out of it yet, and said, "I didn't see you in such a daze just now. What's the matter, feeling sorry for your lover?"

emsp;emsp;“……”

emsp;emsp;海克怔怔然看着尸体,半天没有出声,直到身前用枪抵住他的黑袍少年,不耐烦地踹了一脚,他才清醒过来,肥肉堆积的脸上,挤出一个比哭还难看的笑容:

emsp;emsp;"No... it's nothing, Lord Vito. Just a prostitute bought with money. She's dead now, so what? I can always go to the nearby brothel after I take office. There are plenty of women with such looks, and I can have as many as I want."

emsp;emsp;"Oh?"

emsp;emsp;Upon hearing these words, Vito's lazy and indifferent expression suddenly vanished. He sat up and carefully observed the former Captain who had purchased his rank with money before him.

emsp;emsp;“你叫我维托大人?”

emsp;emsp;“是……是的。”

emsp;emsp;“还说起到任后要做的事?”

emsp;emsp;"Yes."

emsp;emsp;"Interesting." Vito extinguished the cigarette in his hand and watched Haik, who was becoming increasingly calm, with great interest. "It seems you think I won't kill you today?"

emsp;emsp;“这……这得您说了才算。”

emsp;emsp;Heck lowered his head slightly, his face appearing normal on the surface, but only he could hear the nervous pounding of his heart. "But didn't you also say before that you came to see me today not to kill but to discuss a business collaboration."

emsp;emsp;"But I've already killed many people."

emsp; Vitto gently scratches the chin of the plush cat in his arms. "Your lover, your friends, oh, and accidentally ruined this table of barbecue for you."

emsp;emsp;“那……那是他们挡了您的路,该死,也不得不死。”

emsp;emsp;海克跳过了烤肉的话题,尽量使自己的声音保持平稳,“如果我没猜错的话,大人您是想要取代他们的身份,让我安排您和您的这几位属下,成为支部的尉官吧?这样一来,就不需要从最底层开始,慢慢熬资历往上爬了……”

emsp;emsp;Even a fool would be able to see it by now.

emsp;emsp;Vito remained noncommittal as he calmly took out his lighter and lit a second cigarette. After taking a puff, he looked down at Haik and chuckled before speaking:

emsp;Well, perhaps that's true. But since the goal is to avoid starting from scratch, wouldn't it be better for me to start from a lowly lieutenant and work my way up to a naval colonel?

@emsp;emsp;"Impossible."

@emsp;emsp;For once, Haik didn't stutter. He answered without hesitation, with a decisive attitude, "I have observed it already. Your group consists of four people, three men and one woman, which happens to match the individuals I brought along for this internship. Obviously, you have selected your targets in advance and came prepared."

emsp;emsp;Moreover, with my help, replacing the branch captain would not cause any mistakes. But if you want to directly replace me as a naval colonel, apart from whether or not the headquarters can keep it a secret, Base 78 has already received a notification from the headquarters, knowing my name, what I look like, and so on...

emsp;emsp;The more he spoke, the more confident he became, to the point where he completely disregarded his previous fear and gradually straightened his posture.

emsp;emsp;"So, as long as you still want to make it in the navy, you won't choose to kill me now. Moreover, you'll have to rely on me to take up the position and cooperate fully in order to completely resolve the hidden dangers concerning our identities."

emsp;emsp;"So, it doesn't matter who dies in this carriage today, but only I can't die."

emsp;emsp;With that said, Haik took a deep breath and for the first time, mustered the courage to look up and face Vito, who was sitting across from the barbecue grill.

emsp;emsp;后者咬着烟,似乎一直在认真倾听他的分析,见自己望来,还微微点头笑了笑。
