บท 7: Chapter 7 The Gu insects that are about to starve to death.
On the way, Zhou Ming asked, "Brother Yang, how does the main god determine the skill levels? What's the difference between LV1 and LV2 of firearms?"
Yang Zhisheng, who was driving, glanced at him and said with a smile, "Is the firearm upgraded to LV2?"
Zhou Ming nodded.
After absorbing some combat experience from three assassins, Zhou Ming had improved in many aspects, but only his firearms skills had shown a visible improvement.
"Not bad," Yang Zhisheng chuckled and said, "The main god does not have a specific description of the skill level, but among us reincarnates, there is a set of recognized standards."
"Level 1 is proficient, level 2 is skilled, level 3 is expert, level 4 is master, level 5 is grandmaster, and level 6 is great-grandmaster."
"As for before mastering a skill, it can actually be classified as level 0, but the main god does not display it."
"But these things don't mean much. This is not an electronic game, everything is displayed in data. You have to explore how well you master a skill, and you know it best in your heart."
"The most important thing is whether you can use it or not. No matter how well you train in a skill, if you can't use it when it matters, then it's useless."
"Understood," Zhou Ming nodded.
"By the way, how did the sniper set up such a precise assassination? How could he predict that we would go to that rooftop and that you would stand exactly where he had planned to snipe Miss Adele?"
This was a point that Zhou Ming was very puzzled about. They went to install surveillance equipment and happened to bump into the assassin, who was also looking for a suitable sniping position to assassinate Miss Adele. The outbreak of the conflict was completely accidental.
Although he restrained the killer and took him to the rooftop for interrogation on a whim.
How could the Chronos assassin have predicted all of this and set up the trap for that long-distance shot so early?
"It's just a coincidence," Yang Zhisheng said with a strange expression on his face.
"A coincidence?" Zhou Ming was taken aback.
"The Chronos assassin did use a previous assassin as bait, but he chose the right time to strike when that assassin was targeting Adele. We counterattacked and killed him on the rooftop."
"After all, that assassin may be formidable to ordinary people, but he's nothing in the eyes of the Chronos assassins and us. He was really suitable to be used as bait."
"While the assassin who wanted to kill Adele was looking for a suitable sniping location, the Chronos assassin was also calculating the timing of his shot, and we were setting up surveillance equipment."
"Who could have expected that we would run into that assassin and capture him alive, and that I and Yu Man would be there to interrogate him, and the Chronos assassin would be watching everything through his sniper scope?"
"Although it wasn't the best timing he had envisioned, the opportunity presented itself, and of course he wouldn't let it slip away."
Yang Zhisheng laughed. "That shot was really impressive. If it had been someone else, they would have been killed."
"Is it really just a coincidence?" Zhou Ming sneered.
"Yeah, I want to ask the same thing."
Both of them fell silent.
It is said that the Chronos organization regards themselves as messengers of the gods and possess extraordinary power, acting according to the will of the gods.
Can their plan really go smoothly? If there are any more "coincidences" like this, how will they respond?
Zhou Ming furrowed his brows, pondering over this issue.
After two hours of driving on the road, they arrived at their destination.
It was a villa area, and their target, Andreas, lived here.
Andreas was worth over a hundred million, with several factories under his control, making him a suitable target for Zhou Ming's plan of producing ammonium nitrate.
"Let's take action."
They parked the car in a hidden spot outside the residential area and exchanged a smile. Avoiding the surveillance, they sneaked in quietly.
The security measures here were not bad, but it couldn't stop the reincarnators. Yang Zhisheng's ability allowed them to know the location of all monitoring devices and even to a certain extent, control some electronic devices.
As for the patrolling security personnel, as long as the two of them didn't want to be discovered, even their shadows couldn't be found.
Therefore, after two hours, they were already enjoying Andreas' collection of red wine in his living room.
As for the owner of the house, he sat on the sofa, trembling, with his family and two nannies, unable to conceal his frightened expression.
It didn't take two hours to sneak into the villa and kidnap Andreas and his family. What they did during this time was to figure out how to make these people obedient.
The method was simple; they implanted micro-bombs in Andreas' family's bodies (the materials were provided by Yang Zhisheng), and even the two nannies were fortunate enough to experience this rare device.
After demonstrating the power of the micro-bombs to them, everyone obeyed.
"What do you want? My money, my house, my car, my jewelry, and my gold—you can take them all as long as you don't hurt my family."
Andreas suppressed his fear and tried to negotiate with the two robbers.
He didn't understand why the two robbers suddenly broke into their home and used such terrifying methods to hold his family hostage. However, up until now, they hadn't made any demands.
He couldn't figure out what these thugs would want if it wasn't for money.
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Andreas. We just need you to do us a little favor."
"As long as you do what we say, we promise that you and your family won't be harmed."
"Before that, we just hope that your family can calm you down and not do anything that's not good for everyone."
Zhou Ming smiled and said to Andreas, but the seemingly harmless smile in Andreas' eyes was no different from the devil's grin.
Next, everything proceeded according to plan, smoothly and logically.
Yang Zhisheng accompanied Andreas to the factory, selecting a small group of people to begin a new production task, ensuring both the production of ammonium nitrate and the factory's anomaly would not attract any unwanted attention beforehand.
Zhou Ming sat at Andreas' home, "taking care" of his family for him.
Night fell.
"Sir, I've prepared your bathwater." The maid stood next to Zhou Ming, lowering her head and speaking hesitantly.
Even though during this period, Zhou Ming had not shown any ferocious appearance, but rather acted politely and elegantly, both the two maids and Andreas' wife and daughter still had a lot of fear towards him.
After all, if the teenager across from them pressed the button in his hand, their necks would be broken, their heads would fly out, blood would spray onto the ceiling from their chests, and their headless bodies would collapse softly. Then that devil-like teenager would chop them up into pieces, and flush them down the sewer without leaving any traces.
This was what the boy had said to them himself after demonstrating the power of the mini bomb. His calm and deliberate demeanor at the time was reminiscent of a movie killer, leaving an indelible impression of fear on everyone present.
This was precisely the effect Zhou Ming wanted. If it wasn't necessary, he didn't really want to kill these people, so it would be better for everyone if they just behaved.
Transmigrators were never good people, and Zhou Ming, who had lived in the Northern Wilderness for more than ten years, had long been accustomed to intrigue and fierce competition.
To survive, they could lower their standards.
Therefore, the kidnapping and coercion routine, whether it was Yang Zhisheng or Zhou Ming, was carried out without any psychological barriers.
The warm bath water gradually washed over his body, and Zhou Ming breathed a long sigh of relief.
This was the third day he had entered this world, but he had already been in two battles, traveled thousands of miles, endured the hardships of travel, and his nerves had never really relaxed.
After all, there was a huge gap between his strength and that of the two seniors. Participating in the seniors' missions was, for him, a kind of adventure that was close to suicide.
The top killers of Chronos—those monsters that could make bullets turn—could easily take Zhou Ming's life, but they were not formidable opponents for the two seniors. What Yang Zhisheng and they feared was always the Chronos organization as a whole, not just a single killer.
So, Zhou Ming never dared to let himself relax, and being in a crisis meant that one wrong move could lead to disaster.
At this moment, soaking in the water, he felt a rare sense of ease, but soon he would have to worry about something else.
With a flip of his palm, the Water Jade Gu appeared in Zhou Ming's hand.
Examining the gem-like insect carefully, Zhou Ming sighed lightly and placed it in the water.
Gu are living creatures that need to eat. If they aren't fed for a period of time, they become weak or even starve to death.
The food of the Gu is diverse: plants, bamboo, stones, blood, meat, metals, and even air, sound, and light can be food for them.
For example, the Water Jade Gu needs pure water as its food and should be fed once a day.
This is still relatively simple. At least in this world, Zhou Ming can obtain distilled water to satisfy the Water Jade Gu's needs.
But feeding other Gu is not so simple.
The food of the Sword Qi Gu is the leaves of sword bamboo, and it needs to be fed once every seven days. The food of the Water Armor Gu is water spiders, and it needs to be fed once every six days.
Both of these things are unique to the world of gu and cannot be found in this world.
Fortunately, just before he came to this world, Zhou Ming was lucky enough to have fed all of his Gu. Even if the feeding time has passed, the Gu will not starve to death immediately. They will gradually become weaker until they can no longer move.
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, in three days, Zhou Ming's two second-stage gu will no longer be usable.
As for the remaining three gu, the food of the Grassroot Gu is earth qi, which Zhou Ming doesn't need to worry about. He only needs to activate the Grassroot Gu to root in the soil, and the gu will absorb the qi of the earth on its own. It is one of the easiest Gu to take care of and lives up to its name.
The food of the Leaf Blade Gu is Qing Mulberry Grass, and the food of the Grass Shoe Gu is Grass Bellflowers, both of which are not found on this planet.
However, right now, Zhou Ming doesn't have the mental capacity to think about these two Rank 1 Gu insects. After all, they have a lower value and it wouldn't be too heartbreaking for Zhou Ming if they starved to death.
In fact, these two Gu insects are now almost unable to be activated due to hunger, on the brink of death.
Although rank 1 Gu insects eat less each time compared to rank 2 Gu insects, the time intervals between feedings are much shorter.
Without any surprises, these two Gu insects will be the first to leave Zhou Ming. It may happen even earlier than the water jade Gu, which can't be used for another three days.
At least for these two Gu insects, it's hard to say whether they can survive until tomorrow.
