Chapter 134 Eight Corpses, the Key to the New World?
Chapter 134 Eight Corpses, the Key to the New World?
Su Tu calmly looked at Rhys, who was smiling in front of him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
To be honest, when he asked the question, he never expected that Rhys would provide an answer.
He was somewhat surprised when the man said he wanted to tell him the purpose of the eight corpses.
However, since the other party was willing to talk, Su Tu was quite willing to listen.
After all, up to now, both his original body and his avatars are involved with these eight corpses.
He silently gazed at Rhys, his eyes deep and calm, without the slightest hint of eagerness to know the answer.
Rhys was also looking at the other person, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Those eight corpses are the keys to unlocking the door to a new world."
The voice drifted over, suddenly stirring up huge waves on the calm surface of Su Tu's heart.
A door to a new world? A key?
He didn't understand, he didn't comprehend what the sentence meant.
What kind of world is this so-called new world, and how many secrets does it hold?
He had no idea about it and had never been in contact with it.
It could be said that this was the first time he had heard this term since he transmigrated to this world.
Fortunately, Su Tu had read quite a few novels in his previous life, so he knew that this phrase was usually a frequently used word by villains.
Post-apocalyptic novels, where the so-called zombie crisis is actually about creating a new kind of human and a new world.
Fantasy novels are about powerful beings who plot against fate and attempt to usurp the throne.
Simply put, if the world Su Tu is currently in is the world of a novel, then Rhys, who is taking away eight corpses, is the villain of that novel.
However, in theory, such final villains should only reveal their identities at the end of the story.
Then he describes his ideal world to the protagonist, only to be defeated by the protagonist's words, "Don't underestimate our bond."
Now that Rhys has jumped out, does that mean the story has already come to an end?
The thought popped into his mind, but was instantly banished.
Just kidding, if this were a novel world, I'd be the protagonist. But the protagonist hasn't even fully developed yet, and the final boss has already jumped out.
Which author would dare to write like that? They'd be guaranteed to get a barrage of friendly greetings from the readers.
Besides, he wasn't interested in the so-called protagonist, and he wouldn't be foolish enough to stop the creation of the so-called new world.
Let people do whatever they want, as long as it doesn't affect his silent growth, he will definitely view everything from a bystander's perspective.
If building the so-called new world is of great benefit to him, he might even help the so-called final boss build the new world.
"So you want to open the door to that new world?"
It has to be said that Su Tu was quite curious about the so-called new world.
If it's to his advantage, he might as well try to contact this Rhys and see if there's a possibility of cooperation.
When Rhys heard Su Tu's question, a faint smile still appeared on his pale face.
Clearly, he had anticipated that Su Tu would raise such a question.
He chuckled and casually glanced at the royal scout who was monitoring the slave trader not far away, his thoughts churning in his eyes.
"Who told you I was going to open the door to that new world?"
These words were undoubtedly another bombshell, hitting Su Tu hard in the heart.
He stared intently at Rhys, his eyes flashing with an inscrutable expression, already guessing at Rhys's purpose in taking the body away.
Previously, Rhys said that these eight corpses were the key to opening the door to the new world, and he subconsciously felt that Rhys's purpose was to open the door to the new world.
But now, Rhys's words have undoubtedly shattered his idea.
So, what was his purpose in taking those eight corpses away?
It's actually quite simple. People who take the key have only two purposes: either they want to open the door, or they don't want anyone else to open it.
If someone wants to open a locked door, they must find the key, which means finding the person who took the key.
Simply put, Rhys's purpose in taking away the eight corpses was not to open the so-called door to a new world, but to protect that door from being opened by others.
That's a very noble quality, isn't it?
But Su Tu didn't think so.
He felt that Rhys's reluctance to let anyone open the door must be related to his interests, and might even pose a threat to his life.
Whatever Rhys may want to do, his identity as a businessman will not change.
A merchant is driven by profit, and that will not change even if he wants to protect something.
"In that case, what brings you to me?"
Su Tu was indeed shocked by his words, but that was his inner state; on the surface, he remained as calm and composed as ever.
It seems that no matter how bombshell Rhys throws at him, he remains unmoved.
That's actually true. Now, very few things can affect him unless they are closely related to him.
Whether the so-called new world door is opened or not is actually very far away for Su Tu, and he feels that it has little to do with him.
However, he couldn't completely deny that this so-called new world had nothing to do with him, after all, Rhys, the gatekeeper, had come knocking on his door.
I might as well ask him directly what his purpose was in contacting me, so as to determine whether this so-called new world was related to him.
"Is there something you need?"
Rhys's gaze remained fixed on the reconnaissance team member, and he murmured softly.
After a long pause, he turned his gaze to Su Tu and spoke calmly.
"I want to meet with the person in charge of the organization behind you."
The organization behind it?
Su Tu was puzzled, not quite understanding what those words meant.
It's important to know that he had no organization behind him; he acted alone from beginning to end.
Whether it was completing the main storyline or planning a scheme to gain fame, no one else was involved.
But soon, he realized why Rhys had said that.
When he first met Rhys, he pretended to have someone backing him in order to increase his intimidation factor.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to negotiate with Rhys so smoothly back then.
As his thoughts raced, Su Tu had already formed a general idea.
He had previously thought that if he had enough avatars, he could establish an organization entirely composed of avatars.
That would be quite fun.
Now that Rhys has brought this up, he can take this opportunity to establish the prototype of an organization.
After having a general idea, his expression became serious, and his gaze toward Rhys became somewhat unfriendly.
Acting, acting, still fucking acting!
"I'm sorry, our manager is unavailable to see you."
Su Tu refused without hesitation, as if he had never intended for the person in charge to show up.
But in reality, he didn't have any organization at all, let alone any organization leader.
We still need to think of a way to change the subject first.
