Nanzhou, Chi region, Taichung Dadu, Ginza City.

Apart from hundreds of thousands of kilometers, the nuclear explosion in Dallas City in Xizhou has not been an hour, so it naturally cannot affect it.

The night was dark, the villas in the deep mountains were brightly lit, the roads in front of the door were crowded, and in the magnificent hall, men and women wearing dresses and long skirts came and went, each of which was noble, and the wine servant was also holding his head up and his chest, revealing a sense of high-class pride.

As the protagonist of this banquet, the elderly Tokugawa Nagao did not come out of the side hall until then to welcome everyone's kind greetings.

The Tokugawa family has existed since the Supreme Alliance Government was established. As a condition for disbanding the country and joining the alliance, the Tokugawa family has never declined for thousands of years. The family members have always firmly controlled the seat of the Heichong Dadu Councilor until more than ten years ago, Tokugawa Nagao, the patriarch of the Tokugawa family, finally successfully became a district councillor in the Akagi region.

You should know that the land area of ​​Blue Star is 1.9 billion square kilometers, with a total population of 20 billion, with a total of four states. Each state is divided into ten districts, and each district has twenty major metropolis. The influence of district councillors is even greater than that of any king of any country in the Age of Discovery a thousand years ago.

Over the past decade, relying on political advantages, the Tokugawa family's forces have left Higashima Dadu and began to radiate to the surrounding areas.

Those who can attend this dinner tonight are all famous, and even Tokugawa Nagao cannot be underestimated.

"Tokugawa's complexion is getting better and better day by day."

"Yes, we old men are going to be buried in the soil when compared with him!"

"Mr. Yamada, don't make fun of me, you are only five years older than me."

Tokugawa Nagao smiled and chatted with them. Although he was humble in words, he actually enjoyed such words very much.

"Five years old?"

The nearly eighty-year-old Yamada clerk glared and then patted his shoulder size: "I look at our age, at least thirty, your hair has not turned white yet."

Everyone and Tokugawa Nagao compliments each other, and then they gave up their positions to the younger generations in a tacit understanding.

It is said that they are younger generations, but in fact they are all in their forties and fifties, most of them are already bald.

Before Tokugawa Nagao could say a few words to them, he suddenly felt something.

"Everyone will take a walk and eat something."

After saying that, he left the hall quietly, withdrew from the family servant, and came to the top floor of the villa alone.

The cold breeze blew his black hair. Although it rarely snowed in the winter in Nanzhou, it was still a little cold.

A thin figure sat on the balcony fence on the rooftop.

The girl was wearing a goldfish kimono, with her slightly wide sleeves crossed on her chest, holding two knives, and a pair of slender and fair calves on the hem of the kimono, swaying in the air.

Her hair was loose and her long bangs covered her eyebrows and half of her eyes. Even so, it was still difficult to hide her pretty appearance.

A few wisps of cold mist were exhaled from the tip of the girl's delicate nose, and her rosy little lips were pursed without saying a word.

As soon as he saw the other party, Tokugawa Nagao's face changed drastically and he immediately fell to the ground.

"See the messenger!"

He put his posture to the lowest point, and even when he was young, he was not so respectful to his father.

If the guests downstairs saw this scene, they would be shocked to open their mouths and wonder if they were dreaming.

What is this girl’s identity as a powerful member of Tokugawa who kneels down and salutes?

When the Jade Butterfly faced this scene, her eyes did not fluctuate at all.

"Do you know what you did wrong?"

Hearing this sentence, Tokugawa Nagao's body couldn't stop trembling, his eyes filled with fear.

"I am stupid, please inform the messenger."

The jade butterfly's eyebrows were slightly frowned.

She did not make any moves, but a knife light suddenly lit up in the darkness. The next moment, Tokugawa Nagao's body fell to the ground, with a terrified expression, but no wound appeared on her body.

Jade Butterfly snorted and then said:

"You ask me? I'm just a cute girl."

She actually didn't know why her elder brother wanted to kill this person herself.

I originally wanted to ask the victim, but the other party decisively admitted that he was a fool.

Then there is nothing to say.

Half an hour later, the servant who could not find his master's house came to the top floor and saw the body of Tokugawa Nagao. The screams echoed throughout the villa.

The guests present were either rich or noble, and their respective forces were not bad, so they quickly spread the news to the entire upper class.

The district councillor died suddenly, and no one expected this situation to happen. Next, the vacant location will trigger an earthquake in the entire Chia area.

...

...

Two days later.

West, Apuno District, Massachusetts, Saren City.

In some secret building.

A conference room covering an area of ​​nearly 100 square meters is placed with a huge long conference table.

There are no windows here and no lights are turned on. The entire conference room is pitch black, with tables and chairs empty, and there is no one in the figure.

But then, a bunch of lights suddenly appeared on the surrounding walls, and then dozens of blurry shadows suddenly appeared, unable to see their faces and figures clearly. They were projected onto the conference table, with one seat for each person.

There were 48 tables in total, with only forty-six figures sitting there. In addition to the No. 1 position, there was also one person missing.

Everyone's eyes unconsciously looked at the empty seat.

Some people began to wonder if some members died in the catastrophe that occurred in Xizhou some time ago.

After a long silence, only after everyone was talking.

"On the 10th, call us together. If you have any, tell me as soon as possible."

The person who spoke was No. 31, and his (her) voice was a mechanical sound that had been specially processed, and even the gender could not be recognized.

"Diet on the 28th, do you know this?"

Although the voice has been specially processed, everyone can still hear the gloating in No. 10's tone.

There was a little noisy in the conference room for a while.

“Is it because of green rot?”

"Impossible, I have only been in the association for less than two years on the 28th."

"Green rot and it won't be based on time. No. 1 is the first of us to join the association. Isn't it okay yet?"

"Who is No. 28? Do you have any clues?"

The discussion between the crowd gradually stopped, and the topic was brought back to No. 10.

No. 31: "No. 10, since you know the identity of No. 28, don't keep it a secret. We don't have so much time to waste with you."

No. 10 laughed twice: "Which famous figure has died in the Chi area of ​​Nanzhou in the past two days?"

When the scope was narrowed to this point, someone remembered it on the spot: "District Councilor, Tokugawa Nagao?"

"clever!"

No. 10 seemed to snap his fingers.

"It could be him?"

"The district councillor is qualified to join us."

"The Tokugawa family seems to be an old family called Tianjiyuan. It has great strength. Now the Aka area is going to be in chaos."

This information is very valuable and everyone is trying to digest it and find places they can use it.

No. 31 asked: "No. 10, why do you know the identities of other members of our Immortality Club!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else calmed down and looked at No. 10.

No. 10 sneered in his heart. These geniuses had already seen it, but they pretended not to know anything and insisted on waiting until No. 31 to ask.

Even if you have to calculate this insignificant thing, you are afraid that you will be exposed. It is really a gang of old disasters.

"Of course I know, because the Fermi area is my territory, and anyone who reaches in can't hide it from my eyes."

The Fermi District is one of the four major regions in the Western Continent, with jurisdictions including Maryland and Los Santos, Linhai.

A big explosion suddenly occurred in Dallas, capital of Maryland two days ago. The entire city, including 100 kilometers around it, was blocked and no one was allowed to enter. The official reason was that the city illegally stored dangerous chemicals, which led to the explosion and the leakage of toxic substances. However, the actual situation, the people present could understand after thinking about it a little.

Because at the last meeting two months ago, No. 10 deliberately said that a small town isolated from the world in Dallas City was all descended from an ancient nobleman active in the island country of the Los Angeles region more than 700 years ago. This nobleman gained the strength of being invincible on the sea because of his enshrined evil gods. It is said that their bodies became invincible due to the gifts of the evil gods, were not afraid of swords, guns, and can breathe freely in the water.

The Pirate Kingdom was eventually disbanded under the pressure of the Supreme Alliance government. This noble was also chased by the dispute arbitration court because of his belief in the evil gods and had to hide. It has been seven hundred years since then. Although the descendants of the nobles have forgotten the history of their ancestors, the belief of the evil gods continues in that small town.

In other words, as long as anyone can obtain the favor of that evil god, he can gain power beyond mortals like the original nobles.

At that time, No. 10 deliberately spread this information. No. 10 was idiot. He must have seen that this was a bait, otherwise No. 10 deliberately concealed some key clues. Otherwise, if there was such a big advantage, he would definitely have taken it into his own pocket and would not say it out and share it with everyone.

After the meeting, everyone had privately investigated the history of the island country and really found sporadic records about the nobles, proving that what No. 10 said was not groundless, but out of caution, no one took the initiative to test it.

Unexpectedly, the first one to be unable to resist the temptation was No. 28.

Tokugawa Nagao took action, and then Dallas was blocked. On the same night, he died suddenly on the roof of his villa.
