Chapter 611: The Overlooked King (Part One)
Kush Adri.
A native from the Land of Mercenaries.
At the age of 9, his entire village was destroyed by war, and he walked out of the village alive carrying a broken gun in his hand. He joined countless mercenary groups that worked for various forces to stay alive, helped the armed forces to fight the native government, and was once a war machine for anyone with money to hire him.
It could be said that he was born for war; he organized rebellious alliances to overthrow the corrupted government and made himself the King in the Land of Mercenaries. In the peaceful modern days, he was the representative of the gra.s.sroot fairy tale, and almost half of his life was enough to be called fantastic, so many people liked to call him Kush, the King of War!
He loved to learn, and he would learn any skills that would help him in his way of life. He would get in contact with any criminal and had studied under many teachers to learn all kinds of skills from them. Over time, he learned from and exceeded all his teachers.
In this mercenary world where one could only rely on oneself, many of the new rising forces were actually walking his old path. Large and small forces had eliminated the hollow government structure to turn the situation of this land into what it was today. It could be said that in the Land of Mercenaries, no one wouldn’t do him a favor, otherwise he would not be called the King of Mercenaries!
He was the figurehead of the Land of Mercenaries, and it was entirely because of him that the Continental Mercenary Group could become the world’s top mercenary team.
So, in terms of influence, seniority and power, if Kush coughed, then everyone in the Land of Mercenaries would catch a cold.
Therefore, he was the only legendary level master in the Rankings at a very young age.
When he appeared, it would be a lie for Mario and the others who had been here for a few years to say that they weren’t afraid. Even though their abilities had been strengthened, the moment they saw Kush, there was a kind of awe in their hearts. It was his invisible suppressive aura and influence!
Xu Cheng did not expect Kush to appear, and to be honest, he had never seen Kush before. Although he had thought that he would take the stage one day, he did not expect it to be so soon to see him.
Kush’s appearance made the five commanders breathe a sigh of relief, Kush was no less than half of the king here, and he only lacked recognition from the United Nations. So, with his presence, they were more or less relieved to have someone behind their back.
Kush walked down and stood in front of Xu Cheng. He flicked his cigar and put one hand in his pocket as he looked at Xu Cheng and said, “I didn’t expect the recently famous Deviant Mercenary Corp’s leader to be so young. To be honest, you surprised me. I saw my old self in you. However, rules are rules, you cannot harm unarmed people. Let them go.”
Xu Cheng looked at Kush and didn’t have the slightest intention of backing down as he said, “Sometimes, the unarmed with brains are even scarier than the armed without. These five people are all wise commanders, they know how to play around the rules. I once gave them a chance to get out of here if they were defeated, but they didn’t listen, so I’m not to blame for killing them. If it was you, would you spare the people who are your enemies?”
“No!” Kush said bluntly, “But please get this straight! If you make it difficult for them, then I will treat it as you refusing to do me this favor!”
“Why should I do you a favor?” Xu Cheng asked.
Chapter 611: The Overlooked King (Part Two)
Kush laughed. “Look at this land, this world. The reason that there’s room for everyone to play is mostly because I abolished the useless government. I, Kush, am not invincible, but in the Land of Mercenaries, if I said I was, who will object?”
He looked around at everyone and no one made a sound nor had an objection.
He turned to look at Xu Cheng again and shrugged his shoulders. “If you don’t do me this favor, then you are against me. You just asked me if I would let go of someone who is an enemy to me? My answer is, no! If you don’t want to sour our relations.h.i.+p, then you’d better understand that I’m not discussing this with you, but that it’s an order. It’s best if you don’t exhaust my respect for you. Appreciate how I’m personally here to protect the five of them, that’s already a step down to show you enough respect.”
Xu Cheng laughed out loud.
He looked around at everyone, pacing back and forth as he said, “If you, Kush, are so invincible, then why don’t you dare to rule this land? It’s because you’re actually scared! You’re over forty years old, so you’re afraid that one wrong step would take away everything you have. Now everyone knows that these people come here every year to practice brutalizing and killing people in the Land of Mercenaries. You don’t try to stop these outsiders but instead, you only act tough to the people that reside on this land. With that, how invincible could you be? So you look forward to being their dog and are waiting for them to acknowledge how behaved you are?”
Kush’s eyes crinkled at the corners and his hands clenched into fists.
Mario saw his stance and subconsciously walked to Xu Cheng’s side so he could help block an attack from the others.
“I’ll count to three, and if you don’t let them go after three, you’ll suffer the consequences.” Kush watched as Xu Cheng stared at him dead in the face.
Xu Cheng pulled a pistol directly from Chekhov’s waist and pointed it at a commander’s head as he said to Kush, “Count!”
Kush’s pupils constricted.
He didn’t believe Xu Cheng would do it.
“One!”
Bang, bang!
Two shots fired, and two commanders fell to the ground with their heads directly pierced through by Xu Cheng’s two bullets!
The remaining three commanders were just in shock!
Including Kush himself, who was stunned!
Mario and the others were also stunned.
Holy, I’ve seen a man with guts, but never such a man
with this much guts. Xu Cheng
could manage to not wince at all in front of the King of Mercenaries.
Those like Zhang Xiu who had heard of Kush’s legendary stories by ear, had never heard of anyone daring to question nor disobey Kush. In this Land of Mercenaries, everyone who was crossing by had to come over and wors.h.i.+p him, or else they could die without even knowing why!
When they first met Xu Cheng, they felt that he was ruthless but courageous enough, and was also brave with brains. However, they didn’t expect him to be so bold that he would literally try to be the king of the jungle, so how could they, who are just animals at the bottom of the food chain not be shocked?
Kush tried to suppress Xu Cheng with his demeanor as he shouted in a deep voice, “Two!”
Bang, bang! Another two bullets fired, taking out the lives of two commanders.
The remaining commander-in-chief was so scared that he just peed his pants. His face was splattered with blood from his comrades’ heads and his brain went offline.
He kneeled in Kush’s direction, crying, “Don’t you count it, stop counting down.”
He then begged Xu Cheng for mercy, “Let me go, I’ll get out of here and go back to my country right now! Let me go.”
Kush’s expression turned ugly.
How could the king of the jungle who stood on the tip of the pyramid not be angry if suddenly one day, in his own territory, some animal started to wors.h.i.+p a newcomer instead of him.
Xu Cheng said to that Commander-in-Chief, “You’re so manipulative that you still want to set me up before you die?”
Bang!
Xu Cheng shot him in the head.
This Commander-in-Chief was using Kush to have to vent the rage of jealousy onto Xu Cheng. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have kneeled Xu Cheng. Begging for mercy was just one thing, but doing it to show Kush was another thing!
