Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 855: Shuffle

"Old Baker!"

Anna whispered. They were currently in the eighth region of the earth's surface. Only Butcher Baker was in the eighth district of Beth Cordery. Horn kept this trip to the surface a secret. However, only Old Baker, who was a local snake, could find his exact whereabouts.

Earlier, Old Baker had worked with the Alexandrian family to plot against Horn with dissociation fluid. However, Anna had shot the dissociation fluid and Horn didn't have any direct evidence, so he didn't directly operate on Old Baker. However, if Old Baker was really responsible for this attack, then the war between him and Horn was already imperative. Regardless of the final outcome, Horn didn't like to see such internal conflicts in the clan.

"When we get back, tell Ederick and Tell Fatty that it's time for him to take over Old Baker's business and get him ready," Horn said. "At the same time, tell Tyre to stay at home and not wander around for the next few months. Otherwise, don't blame me for not notifying him of any losses."

Anna's heart trembled when she heard this. Hearing Horn's tone, she was ready to make a move.

Horn smiled and said, "Next, I'll be in closed door for ten and a half days. What do you think Old Baker will think when he hears this news?"

Anna had been following him for a long time, so she understood what he meant and suddenly said, "Obviously, this time, Old Baker is planning to test you with Mephie. After all, it's been too long since Master has fought with anyone. Old Baker probably survived by luck, right?"

"Of course, he wants to use Murphy to probe my background. Unfortunately, the chess piece he found is not qualified enough. However, since he has such an intention, I will obey his wishes." Horn smiled. "If that old man thinks Maffei hurt me, that would be wonderful. We have to give him an excuse to do it."

Anna nodded, with Old Baker's temper. Once she thought that Murphy was qualified to injure Horn, she would definitely make a move in a short period of time. As soon as he made his move, Horn's attack on him would be justified, and at the same time, the internal friction of the clan would be reduced to the minimum. It could be said that he had worked very hard.

A rather spacious office, from decoration to decoration, was extremely ingenious. The floor was covered with a golden Persian rug with simple and elegant patterns and delicate workmanship. There weren't many high-end goods with such a rich charm, and even fewer were woven from pure wool on the ground. He then looked at the shiny leather sofa set. It was simple and generous. In the middle was a short piece of crystal. There was a small potted plant on it, and the room was decorated with a hint of greenery.

On the wall, which was pasted with dark gold wallpaper, was hanging a religious painting, "The Last Supper", on the wall facing the door. The original work of an old master is nowhere to be found, and only a tall imitation hangs on the wall. However, the scene was bold and hierarchical, depicting the eyes and actions of the characters in detail. If it was an expert in this field, it would be difficult to distinguish whether it was true or false. josei

There were also oriental vases, bookshelves, piranha tanks, and a rococo chandelier in the middle of the dome. Many different styles of ornaments were strangely mixed together without any conflict.

At this moment, two folding books were pushed open. In this era when electronic doors were often used, it was rare for antiques to still use this type of scroll door. Then, Baker, who was wearing a fur coat, walked in with a gloomy expression. He took off his coat and had his own guards take it. He threw away the scarlet scarf on his body and put the cigar out of the crystal ashtray at his desk before saying, "Are you sure?"

A man with an oblique scar on his face stepped forward and said, "Yes sir, no one. I've seen the video of the plane. The Flame Star missile was detonated by the other party's guard before it hit."

"Explode? With what? His Horn guards carry anti-aircraft guns with them?" Old Baker said mockingly. Xuan Ji felt that he was rather bored with his subordinates' mockery.

The scarred man was Old Baker's security director. His real name was unknown, and even Old Baker called him Lightning. "Anna is not using an anti-aircraft gun, sir," Thunder said expressionlessly, "but two large-caliber magical pistols. If I'm not mistaken, they should be Wilderness Hunters from the latest Warfire series. They are probably equipped with range adaptation and precision enhancement series plug-ins for selling their power and agility."

Old Baker rubbed his temples and said, "I don't care what that woman used. I only care that the Flame Star missile that I bought for 20 million yuan was useless and was lit up like a firework?"

"Although it's a pity, it is indeed so. In addition, we also lost an unmanned aircraft. However, before we set off, I have already ordered people to remove all the signs. Horn and the others will not recognize it." Lightning's face was as expressionless as a dead man's, and even his voice was emotionless. It was as cold as a machine.

"He's not going to admit it. If he thinks I did it, then even if there's no evidence, he'll come to him. If that's not the case, then he's not Horn." Old Baker sneered and asked, "Where's Maffei?"

"Just like you predicted, I can't keep Horn."

"It's weird to stay." Old Baker laughed strangely, "I never thought that the dog would succeed in intercepting Horn, but at the very least, it will let me see Horn's current strength. How is it? Has Mayfey's battle report come in yet?"

"This" Lightning hesitated for a moment and said, "Murphy didn't mention anything about the battle. She only said that she would report it to you personally."

'"Troublesome guy, I guess you're afraid that I won't give you money? Who am I? This guy is too careful. Forget it, when he comes over tonight, you arrange some men to keep an eye on this dog for me." Old Baker said.

Lightning coughed dryly and said, "But I received a message a few minutes ago."

Old Baker looked at him and the latter said, "Horn has returned to Babylon. Our spies in the castle said that when he returned, he told the butler that there had been no visitors for the last week."

"Shut the door?" Old Baker's eyes lit up. He walked back and forth a few times and said, "What do you think?"

"I think Murphy should have hurt him. Otherwise, with Horn's strength, why would she do such a weak thing?" Lightning said, "But I'm afraid I'll have to confirm it with Murphy personally tonight."

'"No, even if Horn is really injured, Murphy might not know. He and Horn are too far apart. I'm even more worried that that's just a cover for Horn. I'm testing him. Isn't he?" Old Baker laughed, "He's been an opponent for decades. I know if he's going to shit or pee when he frowns."

"Then we …"

"Go get Tyre for me." Old Baker smiled and said, "Tell him if he's willing to work with me. After this is done, Castle Ugarte will be his. That old bastard Horn doesn't want to test me. I'll just show him my cards."

"Tell's position has always been neutral. I'm afraid …"

"Don't worry, he will agree." Old Baker laughed strangely, "And I have an ace, an ace that Horn would never have dreamed of." The old man thought that he had already seated the Patriarch's chair firmly. Now was the time to let him fall. By the way, go find General Eliphant and tell him I promised him that. But he has to keep his promise and lend me the real fierce man to suppress Horn's kind. "

"Beth Cod, it's time to shuffle the cards!"
