After clearing the game, I became the villain BOSS

Chapter 289 Strong Protection (Page 12)

Master Wen's rich voice echoed in the box, making everyone look at Su Mo with a hint of amusement.

Master Wen snorted coldly and continued to say with a straight face: "There are rules in the mercenary world, and no rewards are allowed for active mercenaries."

"But she has retired and left her identity as a mercenary, so no matter who offers a reward for her, it is reasonable and legal. She can only suffer this disaster by herself."

"Captain Su, I have heard about you before, and I know that you are a righteous person. But don't mess around in everything. If she asks you for help, you can refuse. No one will deliberately get in trouble with the edge."

Su Mo said calmly: "Junior needs to be taught, but you seem to have misunderstood. What do you mean she asked me for help?"

Master Wen looked a little confused: "Isn't she hiding in the Edge Building?"

Su Mo: "I'm hiding in the Edge Building, but this is not her request. It's what I want to do myself."

Everyone couldn't help being stunned after hearing this.

Everyone initially thought that Su Mo had received Nuo Bai's request for help and only saved her because of their old friendship.

But the fact is

Master Wen narrowed his eyes and asked, "You confused me. She didn't ask you for help, but you took the initiative to take her into the Edge Building?"

Su Mo: "Yes."

Master Wen: "Don't you know that doing this will make you a target?"

Su Mo: "I know."

Master Wen: "You know this and you still do it?"

Su Mo looked at everyone present and said deeply: "Everyone here knows that I have a friendship with Nuo Bai. But I think you may not know what kind of friendship it is."

"Let me tell you this, we were in trouble together, and she saved me twice."

"When I was rescued for the first time, I was very weak. I wanted money but not money. I wanted strength but not strength. I was infected with a nasty disease. I was even more miserable than a wild dog. Anyone could come up and kick me."

"At that time, I was lying on the ground and was about to die. She could have left me alone. Even if she saved me, there would be no gain, but she still extended a helping hand to me without hesitation."

"The second time she saved me may have been unintentional, but the result is that if it weren't for her unintentional kindness, I would never have the chance to sit here today."

"Later, she helped me once. Everyone knows about that incident, which was the time when I killed the toothed tiger and hunted Ou Chenyu last year."

"At that time, Ou Chenyu and I had a big feud. Either you died or I died. I didn't want to die, so I contacted many people to help, including Nuo Bai."

"Nuo Bai had already retired for a long time at that time. She had long since stopped asking about killings. The hunt for Ou Chenyu had nothing to do with her. She didn't owe me any favors and could refuse me."

"But she told me - we're friends. If you're in trouble, just tell me."

Su Mo hammered his heart with his fist and said loudly and forcefully: "She helped me twice and helped me once. She helped me get through the three biggest ups and downs in my life."

"Then tell me, should I repay this love?!"

The deafening words echoed in the hall, and the surroundings fell into a long silence.

Su Mo stood up from his seat, clasped his fists at everyone, and said with sincerity in his voice: "So, I implore everyone to let Nuo Bai go and give her a way to survive."

"You give me Su a face today, and I will return it to you ten times and a hundred times in the future!"

The mercenaries present looked at me and I looked at you. Faced with the sincere Su Mo, they didn't know how to respond, so they all turned their attention to Master Wen, the organizer of the conversation.

Master Wen held his forehead, slowly rubbed his temples with his fingers, and was also thinking.

After a while, he slowly spoke: "Captain Su, your righteousness has once again refreshed my understanding. I haven't seen such a sentimental mercenary for a long time."

"You should understand that the mercenary world is very cruel, profit comes first, and feelings are a very luxurious thing. No matter how good your relationship is with her, it is between you and has nothing to do with outsiders."

"But I, Master Wen, admire you and value you. I will risk my old face today to give you some face."

Master Wen glanced at the mercenaries present and said in an unquestionable tone: "I agree that Nobai will stay in the Edge Building for the time being. No one can harass her until she recovers."

"Anyone who dares to mess around during this period will be in trouble with Master Wen, and he will bear the consequences himself."

The mercenaries could not help but frown. In front of this living legend, even someone as arrogant and domineering as Lucifer had to keep his mouth shut.

"But." Master Wen changed the topic again, looked at Su Mo and said profoundly, "One code means one code, the rules are the rules. If people are issuing bounties on the dark web in a reasonable and legal way, I can't always stop them."

"I will personally send someone to the Edge Building to supervise and pay attention to Nobai's physical condition as a notarization."

"Nuo Bai recovers from his injuries, and the favor you owe her can be considered paid off."

"At that time, I will tell her that if she still treats you as a friend, she will sever all ties with you and leave Crescent City by herself. I will not implicate you anymore. Whether she lives or dies in the future has nothing to do with you."

After hearing these words, the mercenaries who were worried just now all showed sly smiles.

Lucifer took the lead in applauding and said with a brisk smile: "Master Wen is Master Wen. This move has the best of both worlds. It not only takes care of Su Mo's face, but also abides by the rules of the industry. I agree."

Soon, other mercenaries also expressed their opinions:

"That's good, that's good. I agree."

"That's good. I agree. Let's take a break before the Chinese New Year. My pickles haven't been finished yet. Let's compete fairly after the Chinese New Year."

"I agree with my brother."

"Since you all agree, then I can only agree~"

Master Wen stamped the ground with his cane, looked at Su Mo and said calmly: "Captain Su, is this enough to give you face?"

Everyone thought that Sumer would agree with this plan.

Because this really takes care of him.

What's more, this was mentioned by Master Wen himself.

Not to mention the leader of the Seven Stars, even the mercenary king Zhou Hannian had to humbly accept Master Wen's suggestions many times.

However, Su Mo's next answer completely shocked everyone.

"I reject."

He answered simply, without even the slightest hesitation.

Master Wen's face darkened, he unconsciously tightened his cane, and his tone became sinister: "Young man, be careful what you say."

Su Mo looked directly at Master Wen without hesitation: "You seem to have misunderstood something, face? Is my face important? That's not what I care about at all."

"The plan proposed by Mr. Wen may allow Nuobai to live for three to five days longer. But what happens after that?"

"With her character, if she knows the situation after she recovers, in order not to implicate me, she will definitely leave without saying a word. From now on, she can only live in the pursuit, exhausted, and the last person will die."

"This is not what I want to see. What I want is not my own face, nor is it her temporary respite. What I want is for her to live well."

"As long as she lives, my face will fall to the ground and be trampled to pieces by you."

At this point, Su Mo looked around at everyone and said in a very firm tone: "That's it for now, let me show my cards right away. I have already decided on Nobai's future for her."
