Tanshao showed no change in expression, but his brow furrowed slightly as if trying to discern the intent behind the giggling laughter. He knew all too well that in this world, every command and every action could be an opportunity for others to exploit and scheme. The voice on the other end of the radio seemed particularly jarring in the black night, carrying an unpredictable sense of danger.
"Hey... old man, where did the explosion just happen? Quite a mess, huh? My team members won't just obediently go over there under my command, will they?" The speaker's words carried a hint of playfulness and disdain, seemingly testing Tanshao's limits while also seeking a higher price.
Tanshao quietly listened, his voice responding with a calmness like still water, yet carrying an underlying strength and unwavering determination. "I know you all desire more, but this is not the time for negotiation. Rado City needs our stability; now is not the time for internal strife. Our common enemy is the invaders who threaten our survival." Tanshao did not directly respond to the other party's extortion, but instead reminded them that now is the time for unity against external threats.
The laughter on the other end of the radio became more grating, as if it could pierce through the silence of the night and reach Tanshao's heart. "Goodness... Tanshao? Have you lost your mind? Talking to me about stability? I know what you're up to, you know? Vivian is in the past, right? And she's the only one, isn't she?" The tone of the other party was filled with sarcasm and distrust, as if they completely saw through Tanshao's intentions and treated it as a joke.
Tanshao fell silent on the radio for a moment, well aware of the sarcasm and provocation in the other party's words, but also understanding that it was not the time for a direct confrontation. His voice finally rang out, calm yet carrying an undeniable authority, "Everything I do is for The Curse of the Wild, for the stability of Rado City. Vivian's actions are for a greater purpose, not something for you or me to judge at will. I need you to act now, without any further hesitation."
Upon hearing Tanshao's words, the other party clearly became quite agitated. "Oh my goodness, old man... If you want us to do your dirty work, just say it straight, stop beating around the bush, it's so annoying!" The other party finally erupted, their voice filled with disbelief and dissatisfaction.
Tanshao snorted disdainfully, his tone suddenly turning cold and ruthless. "Fine... I'll tell you, Vivian must die tonight! Vivian is currently on Silver Bank Street, probably encountering intruders. The intruder has two brushes, take out Vivian, put the blame on the intruder, and act like nothing happened... I'll give you crystal cores afterwards... as much as you need."
The atmosphere on the other end of the phone suddenly became heavy. The other party seemed to be evaluating the feasibility of this proposal and the risks it entailed. "Are you serious, Tanshao? Do you know what this represents?" The voice on the other end carried a hint of trembling, clearly indicating that this order was beyond their usual scope of business.
"I have never been joking." Tanshao's voice was cold, as if it had frozen all emotions. "This is my command. If you want those nuclear crystals, do as I say. I promise this will be the last time you do something like this for me. Do it well, and you will be free in the future."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the radio. Finally, after taking a deep breath, it seemed like a decision had been made. "Alright, Tanshao, since you say so, we will do as you say. But you better not break your promise."
Tanshao gently put down the walkie-talkie. Although his face showed no expression, the glint in his eyes revealed the complexity of his emotions. This decision was undoubtedly one of the riskiest bets he had ever made. And at this moment, the night in Rado City seemed particularly deep, as if foreshadowing an impending storm.
Vivian stood at one end of Silver Bank Street, where the dust and firelight stood out in the night. She stared fixedly at the bank's entrance, and saw a figure swiftly and agilely running out from the firelight, causing the chaos. Vivian instinctively felt that this person was no ordinary individual. She shouted, "Hey! Stop right there, you scoundrel!" Her voice echoed through the night sky, carrying undeniable authority.
After hearing Vivian's shout, the man's body slightly paused, then turned and ran towards Vivian. His steps were firm, and his eyes were calm. Vivian narrowed her eyes and carefully observed, realizing that this was no ordinary escape. Behind them, a large group of Wild Spider Beasts were fiercely chasing them, their roars filling the entire street and striking fear into the hearts of those who heard it.
Vivian was shocked, realizing that the situation was far more serious than she had anticipated. She quickly prepared for battle, tightly clenching her fists as a poisonous mist spread from her hands. She was ready to face this sudden crisis, while also feeling curious about the man who had caused this commotion.
When the man rapidly approached Vivian, he suddenly shouted, "Bastard! Go to hell!" With his shout, he raised his hand abruptly, and the air in front of Vivian seemed to freeze for a moment. Then a dazzling explosion tore through the night sky, and the deafening roar made the entire street tremble.
This sudden explosion caught Vivian off guard, and she was shaken backwards by the powerful shockwave. However, her reaction was extremely quick. She swiftly adjusted her posture in the air, landed steadily on her feet, and slid for a distance before coming to a stop. Amidst the flying dust, she stood upright, her eyes shimmering with an incredible light as she looked at the man.
Vivian took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in her heart. She realized that the man's abilities far exceeded her expectations. Not only did he possess explosive power, but he could also precisely control the location and range of the explosion in a very short time. She watched the man vigilantly, feeling a hint of awe in her heart. Such an opponent was definitely not to be underestimated.
The man stopped in his tracks, watching Vivian land steadily, a hint of admiration on his face. "Impressive, your reaction is really quick," he said, with a glint of eagerness for battle in his eyes. Clearly, this unexpected confrontation had made him even more eager to compete with Vivian.
