Chapter 251: Good Things Come in Pairs
"Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 63 points."
"Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 1 Random Legion Summoning attempt."
"Huh? Huh! Huh!!!"
Yingzhou widened his eyes, looking at the reward he had drawn in disbelief. When this reward first appeared, Yingzhou had needed a moment to react, and then a feeling of joy took over his entire body.
"Damn, you can even draw this from a Random Draw? It seems my luck is really good today, what a good thing!"
Looking at the two opportunities for random legion summoning, he calmed his joyful mood and spoke.
"System, start summoning the legion."
"Summoning legion... Congratulations to the Host, you have obtained the Cadian Shock Troops."
"Summoning legion... Congratulations to the Host, you have obtained the Vitrian Dragoons."
Yingzhou looked on and nodded in satisfaction, stroking his chin as he spoke.
"Not bad, especially the Cadian Shock Troops, they can be called all-rounders. This makes things much better. It should be no problem to have the Modian Iron Guard send a unit over to the Production Zone. Alright, that's it for today, let's go home."
Yingzhou stood up and stretched, looking at his office which had doubled in size. Yingzhou felt that it was finally not so cramped; otherwise, he would have been stifled to death.
Ninth Defense Zone Inner City.
Pu Lie was so angry that he was throwing some valuable items onto the ground, cursing as he spoke.
"That Yingzhou! Too arrogant! That guy Ji Bu still had to cause me trouble even after he died! F***, it's really pissing me off!"
Lu Wang stood silently to the side, waiting for Pu Lie to finish venting the anger in his heart.
"And this Yingzhou is really overestimating his own strength. The Military District doesn't have abundant personnel; it's not even certain they have enough to look after the front lines, yet he actually wants to send a unit to the Production Zone! Just relying on the 3,000 soldiers he can summon? Too arrogant! Don't let me catch an opportunity! I'll make you suffer!"
After another half hour, Pu Lie sat heavily on the sofa and said to Lu Wang.
"It seems the time to start the Master's Advent Ritual in the Outer City will have to be pushed back. Our forces are not yet large enough, and the personnel are relatively scattered. Originally, I wanted to use the unit sent to the Production Zone to gather the Master's Believers together, so we could prepare for the Master's Descent Ritual."
Speaking of this, Pu Lie rubbed his temples with a headache, slowly exhaled, and continued.
"Now, not only is that Yingzhou harder to capture, but he also keeps causing me trouble, making the Master's Descent Ritual get pushed back."
Lu Wang said respectfully to Pu Lie, "My Lord, after all, the Master's Descent Ritual is very important. As the servant the Master values most, you should prioritize the Master's Descent Ritual to ensure the Master can descend into the Ninth Defense Zone normally."
Pu Lie nodded, his tone softening, "You are right, the Master's Descent Ritual is indeed the most important."
Suddenly, Pu Lie "sprang" up from the sofa, a sinister smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.
"If I can't deal with you now, then I'll collect some interest from your older brother first. Daring to obstruct the Master's Descent Ritual, he must be punished! Lu Wang, how is that Yingfang doing now?"
"Reporting to my Lord, that Yingfang's spirit is tortured for 10 to 12 hours every day, but he still hasn't yielded yet, he just doesn't have as much spirit as before."
After hearing Lu Wang's reply, Pu Lie laughed, "Hahaha, not yielding is good. If he yielded, he would be the Master's property. Since he hasn't yielded, I can let him know what the consequences are for not yielding to the Master! Let's go, let's go take a look at this warrior who hasn't yielded!"
As soon as the two entered the secret room, a man's painful muffled groan came from inside. Pu Lie looked at Lu Wang behind him and said, "Alright, stop for now, I'll handle it personally next."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wang walked respectfully to Yingfang and deactivated the mental torture Yingfang was currently suffering.
At this moment, Yingfang had already lost a large circle of weight, his bones could be outlined through his skin, and saliva was flowing from the corners of his mouth. Feeling the disappearance of the mental torture, Yingfang began to gasp for air, but his mouth and nose were covered by a wet towel.
"Mmph! Mmph... mmph..."
Watching his emaciated chest heaving violently because he couldn't breathe air, Pu Lie smiled and said to Yingfang.
"I didn't expect you to be able to withstand the mental torture for so long, it really exceeded my expectations. However, thinking that you are Yingzhou's older brother, I instead feel that this bit of torture is nothing to you."
Seeing the heaving of Yingfang's chest becoming shallower, Pu Lie then removed the towel from Yingfang's mouth and nose, watching Yingfang gasp for air.
"Huff... huff... huff... Are you an Alien Race hiding in the Ninth Defense Zone? Or a Human who has defected to the Alien Race?"
Yingfang caught his breath and, taking advantage of the gap in breathing, asked his question.
"How can you say that about me? After all, I'm just doing it for survival. There's nothing wrong with clinging to the strong. Humans will disappear sooner or later, so it's better to find a way out early. At least I've survived, which can be considered continuing Human Civilization, right?"
Hearing that voice say this, Yingfang was so angry he cursed, "You bastard who defected to the Alien Race, what right do you have to say you can continue Human Civilization! Don't look for those hypocritical excuses for yourself anymore! You're just greedy for life and afraid of death, don't make yourself sound like you're so great! F***!"
Pu Lie watched Yingfang cursing with interest. He didn't feel angry because of Yingfang's insults. He rubbed his chin with his right hand and said in a playful tone.
"I remember you have a wife, right? Although your wife is currently pregnant and living at your brother's house, she will always have days when she returns to the Military District. At that time, I might let your whole family reunite, who knows? It seems the child is a little girl, hehehe, little girls are so cute, I like little girls the most."
Yingfang's voice cursing Pu Lie stopped abruptly, as if he were digesting the information Pu Lie had just revealed.
He had a daughter, and Huang Xi was pregnant with his child? What does this beast want to do! Now that Huang Xi is living with his mother, doesn't this mean this beast is monitoring his family?
Seeing that Yingfang, who was just cursing, was no longer speaking, if not for the still-heaving chest and the breathing at the mouth and nose, Pu Lie would have almost thought Yingfang was already dead.
"How about it? As long as you consider joining us, I can let your family be safe and sound, and you will also have the chance to see your daughter whom you have never met and your other family members. Think about it carefully, I am very patient now, no rush."
After a moment, Yingfang's mouth, still with saliva marks, moved, and he said in a very low voice, "Come here, I have something I want to tell you. Regarding joining you, I have one condition."
Pu Lie couldn't hear clearly, so he had to walk forward a few steps, leaning his ear close to Yingfang's mouth, wanting to hear clearly what Yingfang was saying.
"What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."
