Chapter 1691 Taking the Initiative to Contact the Muricans
“He’s taking the initiative to go to the Muricans?”
Hearing what John Doe said, the faces of Wei Jian and the other two darkened.
They couldn’t deny that there was nothing wrong with Fang Qiu’s opinion, but was it really good to take the initiative to go to the Muricans?
It should be known that in recent days, the Muricans had been targeting John Doe since he had killed a lot of experts from Murica in succession. The grievances between the two sides had long been unsolvable. Moreover, the Muricans and the First Venerable of the Nirvana Organization had joined forces before. Now the Nirvana Organization was holding the auction. How could the Muricans be talked down by John Doe?”
“Why don’t I do it?”
Wei Jian stood up and said, “With the conflict between you and the Muricans, it may not be appropriate for you to go to persuade them.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “I’m doing it in person right because of that. Only in this way can we have a chance to succeed, because I am the one the Muricans are targeting. They probably will refuse to see any other Huaxianese.”
Hearing his words, Wei Jian and the other two nodded in understanding.
“Take a rest. I’ll be back soon,” Fang Qiu said with a smile. He then turned around and walked out of the suite.
He arrived at the reception desk in the hotel lobby.
“Which floor do the Muricans stay on?” Fang Qiu asked the receptionist directly.
“The Muricans?”
The receptionist was stunned. She then quickly shook her head and said, “I’m sorry, sir. We can’t reveal the guest’s information.”
Fang Qiu shrugged and said, “Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll look for them floor by floor. I don’t think you wish me to disturb other guests, do you?”
“Well…”
The receptionist paused for a moment and said, “Wait a minute.”
After a while-
“Their rooms are on the seventh floor.”
After checking it on the computer, the receptionist said nervously, “If you need to go to them, I can make an appointment for you in advance.”
“Okay.”
Fang Qiu nodded matter-of-factly and said, “My name is John Doe!”
Upon hearing that, the receptionist immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she quickly dialed the number of the room on the seventh floor.
“Hello, sir. This is the reception desk of the hotel.”
As soon as the call was connected, the receptionist said, “A sir called John Doe hopes to visit you. If you agree, I can arrange a meeting time for you.”
“Let him come up directly.”
A surprised voice came from the other end of the line.
“Okay, sir.”
The receptionist hung up the phone.
When she was about to tell John Doe, she found that John Doe had already walked into the elevator.
The elevator door opened on the seventh floor.
Fang Qiu stepped out and found that everything here was exactly the same as on the fourth floor.
At this very moment, the door of the suite on the seventh floor was open.
A burly man in camouflage pants and a white vest from Murica was standing in front of the door, waiting for John Doe.
When John Doe came out of the elevator, the man couldn’t help but look puzzled.
The man from Murica who guarded the door looked at John Doe indifferently and asked, “What do you want?”
“Something,” Fang Qiu answered matter-of-factly.
As he spoke, he went straight up.
“Okay.”
The Murican smiled indifferently and said, “If you have the guts, you can come in.”
After that, he turned around and went back to the living room of the suite.
Fang Qiu smiled faintly and followed him in.
“No wonder you’re ranked third in the world.”
Seeing John Doe following him without hesitation, the man from Murica pointed to the sofa and said, “Please have a seat.”
Fang Qiu looked around carefully.
He found that there was no one else in the living room except for this man from Murica.
The Murican stared at John Doe, who was sitting opposite him, and said, “Now tell me why you’re here!”
“Murica should be very clear about my purpose in coming here.”
Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate and said directly, “I hope you don’t participate in the auction of the Nirvana Organization. There are two reasons.”
“Hmm?”
The man from Murica smiled and did not take what Fang Qiu said seriously.
Fang Qiu didn’t care what the other party was thinking and said directly, “Here’s the first reason. Everyone is very clear about the grievances between the Nirvana Organization and me. Not long ago, I wiped out a stronghold of the Nirvana Organization in Zhongdong and discovered this speed-up technique that they’ve been using frequently.”
The face of the man from Murica darkened.
He asked, “Do you mean that Huaxia has already got this technique?”
“No.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “It has been destroyed!”
“Is that so?”
The man from Murica smiled.
As a Murican, he really didn’t want Huaxia to get the speed-up technique. If Huaxia got it, the plan that Murica wanted to rise again and crush Huaxia would be ruined.
Fang Qiu didn’t want to tell the man that Huaxia had got the speed-up technique at all. Although Huaxia had obtained and improved two available cultivation methods, it was undoubtedly an absolute secret for Huaxia. It couldn’t be easily leaked out. Otherwise, it would easily attract hostility from all over the world.
The man from Murica asked sarcastically, “Do you mean that the Huaxianese don’t want Murica to get what you failed to get?”
“The reason why I destroyed the Nirvana Organization’s speed-up technique is that this technique is not suitable for normal people to cultivate.”
Fang Qiu ignored his sarcasm and explained, “Although this speed-up technique can quickly improve people’s strength to the S class, this kind of forced improvement will cause the life span of the cultivator to be greatly reduced. He can only live for 50 years at most. Those who are forcibly promoted will never be able to continue to improve.”
“Is that so?”
The man from Murica nodded, obviously not taking what John Doe said seriously. Instead, he asked with disdain, “So, what’s the second reason you want to say?”
Fang Qiu said, “As for the second reason, I believe that all the countries in the world, including Murica, must have felt that the purpose of the Nirvana Organization, which has been hidden in the world for decades, to suddenly appear in such a high-profile way and to hold an auction with the speed-up technique and various treasures is definitely not simple.
“Nirvana Organization is not short of money at all. They don’t lack anything. Moreover, the speed-up technique is the cornerstone of their organization’s development. There’s something wrong with them offering the cornerstone of their organization to auction when they are not short of anything.
“According to my understanding of the Nirvana Organization, it’s very likely that this auction is a huge conspiracy!”
The man from Murica nodded and said, “Yes, what you said is very likely to happen, but what does it have to do with us? I don’t think this is against us. The thing is that you are an enemy of both Murica and the Nirvana Organization. The enemy of the enemy may be a friend.
“Do you think I’ll trust the enemy or the enemy’s enemy?”
With that, the man from Murica stared at Fang Qiu indifferently, showing obvious hostility.
Fang Qiu shook his head and stood up.
It seemed that it was impossible for him to talk the Muricans down.
Fang Qiu had planned to reveal the news to Murica, hoping to attract their attention while they didn’t know what was going on.
But he didn’t expect that the Muricans seemed to have expected these possibilities, so that man didn’t care about the information he said at all.
It seemed that Fang Qiu had made an unnecessary move.
“I hope you can think about it carefully.”
As he turned to leave, Fang Qiu left his last message.
“I wish you good luck.”
The man from Murica responded with a smile and looked at the back of Fang Qiu. Although his face was full of smiles, his eyes were full of killing intent.
After leaving that room, Fang Qiu didn’t try to persuade other countries.
Given the attitude of Murica, the other countries were likely to be the same. Even if Fang Qiu tried to persuade them, it would be useless.
After all, the bargaining chip offered by the Nirvana Organization this time was too attractive.
The speed-up technique was even more tempting than the world-class ancient ruins.
Even if Fang Qiu went to persuade the other countries, they would certainly take Murica’s opinion into consideration first, because now the world’s top major powers, except Huaxia, were Murica. If Murica didn’t withdraw, why should they withdraw?
If they withdrew, wouldn’t it be equivalent to giving the speed-up technique up to Murica directly?
Although the three countries, namely, Soviett, Anglan, and L’hexagone, were among the top five countries, they had never been able to reach the top because of their metahumans were relatively weak.
This auction gave them the chance to be number one in the world, so they would never give up so easily.
Back in the suite, Fang Qiu told Wei Jian and the other two about his meeting with the Murican.
Because many people saw Fang Qiu asking at the reception desk of the hotel, the news that Fang Qiu had met with the people of Murica soon spread throughout the hotel.
In just ten minutes, all the forces knew that John Doe had gone to the Murican.
Even the people of the other forces who didn’t stay in this hotel heard the news.
“Why did John Doe go to the Murican?”
“Aren’t they enemies? What did they talk about?”
For a moment, all the forces became curious.
Why would John Doe go to the Murican? Logically speaking, when John Doe met the people of Murican, there would definitely be a battle. But this time, not only did John Doe not fight with the Murican, but they also sat together and talked for a long time. What was going on?
…
In the evening, the Nirvana Organization officially announced that the auction would be held in the municipal-level auction house in Belgon.
After receiving the news, John Doe gave instructions to Wei Jian and the other two.
Then, he went out in the middle of the night and walked all the way to the auction house, ready to check the situation around.
He did it because the auction was about to start tomorrow.
He had a feeling that the Nirvana Organization must be plotting something since they had made such a big move this time. The auction tomorrow night would definitely not be peaceful.
Hence, he had to observe and scout ahead of time. At the very least, he had to familiarize himself with the surrounding terrain.
It took Fang Qiu ten minutes to get to the location of the municipal-level auction house in Belgon because the auction house was not close to the Kleista Hotel.
This place was very remote.
