Chapter 1683: Roommate
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In order to relieve pain, a sedative or even an anesthetic was usually added to medical gels.
However, such a small amount of sedative and anesthetic would never produce the feeling that Shen Yuanbiao was feeling right now. Waves of a black tide surged into his brain, trying to completely devour his consciousness.
This medical gel had been tampered with.
His personal bodyguard did not want him to continue living. At the very least, he did not want him to remain sober at this critical moment!
“Who is it?”
!!
Before his consciousness completely sank into the abyss, Shen Yuanbiao’s thoughts raced. He shouted desperately in his heart, “Who is trying to kill me? And who is it that managed to bribe my personal bodyguard who has followed me for more than ten years?”
Shen Yuanbiao did not think that the younger generation like Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, and Shen Chenglie had the ability to do this.
Moreover, they did not have the motive to a.s.sa.s.sinate him.
That’s right. While they wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h his power, everything was still in the same Shen family pot.
They had to fight for the gold in the same pot from beginning to end, so they had to follow the most basic rule—if they exposed his scandal, they could attack his subordinates, and under extreme circ.u.mstances, display their strength to him.
However, to directly kill him was equivalent to kicking the pot over, and it would harm everyone’s interests.
Of course, Shen Yuanbiao had a.s.sa.s.sinated his big brother, Shen Yuanbao.
But that a.s.sa.s.sination had relied on the Blood Alliance’s power, so there were not too many clues and evidence left behind.
If the a.s.sa.s.sination had succeeded, no one would have ever known that he was the mastermind behind the scenes.
This time, Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, Shen Chenglie, and the others were approaching aggressively. Several hundred pairs of eyes had seen them appear there.
If they were a.s.sa.s.sinated at such a critical juncture, their mouths would be tied. The reputation of the Shen family and Univere Corporation would suffer a devastating blow because of this high-profile killing.
“If it’s not them, then who is it? Who knew that I would appear here at this moment for someone to gain benefits from my a.s.sa.s.sination?”
Shen Yuanbiao thought quickly.
A moment later, the brilliance in his eyes was like an exploding fireball, almost tearing his eye sockets apart.
‘Yun Feidian! The Blood Alliance!’ Shen Yuanbiao screamed silently in his heart.
He finally understood that he had underestimated Yun Feidian’s ambition. He had also underestimated the Blood Alliance’s strength.
From the beginning, the Blood Alliance never needed to rely on themselves to seize Universe Corporation’s supreme power and mobilize all that power to help the Blood Alliance.
No, there was no need for Universe Corporation. The Blood Alliance could also launch a grand battle that would change the old and create a new civilization. In the true sense, it would be “ruled by superhumans and serve superhumans.”
The Blood Alliance only needed a trigger, a fuse.
And he was the fuse.
The realization pierced Shen Yuanbiao’s heart like thousands of arrows, and he was filled with regret.
However, his throat, which was sealed with blood and te medical gel, could no longer make any sound.
Forget pushing his bodyguard, who was getting stronger and stronger, away from him, he did not even have the strength to blink or roll his eyes.
He could only watch as his bodyguard grabbed the communicator and spat on the ground. “The boss has been attacked and is seriously injured. Hurry up and break out of the encirclement!” his bodyguard said.
Shen Yuanbiao’s heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
Of course, there were many calm-minded people amongst his subordinates.
If they were given more time, they should be able to tell that the sudden a.s.sa.s.sination had nothing to do with Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, Shen Chenglie, and company.
However, to recruit and expand his strength under the watchful eyes of his elder brother, Shen Yuanbao, it was impossible for him to recruit the talents he needed through formal and public channels.
Therefore, his subordinates had gathered a group of good men who were wanted by the Supernatural Tower for committing crimes and even killing people for their goods.
Ever since the Dragon City civilization obtained victory in the Monster War, the order of Dragon City had further stabilized. The pursuit of wanted criminals and the reinvestigation of all kinds of unsolved cases had gradually become the focus of the Supernatural Tower’s work.
These men could feel that the noose around their necks had become tighter and tighter.
They had become frightened birds and could not wait to clear their names.
In a sense, Shen Yuanbiao had been forced by his men to use the most extreme means to seize Universe Corporation’s highest authority. Only by becoming the big boss of Universe Corporation could he help these people get a real, clean, new ident.i.ty recorded in the database of the authorities.
At the moment, he did not have the ability to do this.
These wanted men could not be caught by anyone.
Therefore, as soon as his bodyguard finished speaking, Shen Yuanbiao heard all the cars around him roar like trapped beasts, instantly blowing their engine to the point of almost exploding.
Shen Yuanbiao had intended to leave the place quietly.
As long as his fleet returned to the main city, even if Shen Yuhe and the others found out about it, they would not dare to engage in a soul-stirring car chase with him in the busy downtown area.
But right now, after the shrieks of the large-caliber anti-material sniper rifle and the roar of the crystal engine, even the superhuman beings on the opposite side, who were all deaf, could smell the unusual scent from the intense vibration of the spirit waves.
As expected, Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, and Shen Chenglie’s troops immediately reacted and surrounded them from both wings like two red-hot sabers.
Although Shen Yuhe and Shen Yufeng were both sheltered children and only knew how to talk on paper, Shen Chenglie was the best warrior in the adopted children faction.
He was not much younger than Shen Yuanbiao. Before he joined Shen Yuanbao, he already had a batch of subordinates who were brave enough to fight. After so many years of acc.u.mulation and training, Shen Yuanbiao definitely did not dare to underestimate his strength.
It was impossible for his own men to break out of the encirclement unscathed.
“No, we absolutely cannot have a conflict with them. If we clash now, both sides will suffer heavy losses. This is suicide. This is suicide!”
Shen Yuanbiao’s eyeb.a.l.l.s almost popped out of their sockets. The veins in his eyes were jumping up and down, almost forming such a message.
Even if he really used his blood vessels to form such a message, for the time being, only his personal bodyguard, who had betrayed him, could see it.
At this moment, a new gunshot came from outside the shattered car window.
It still produced the sharp whistle of a large-caliber anti-material sniper rifle.
But it was no longer aimed at Shen Yuanbiao’s car.
Instead, it was aimed at Shen Yuhe, Shen Yufeng, Shen Chenglie, and the others, who had just surrounded him from both sides and had yet to understand the situation.
