I didn't give the other guy any more chance to speak, approaching the man in the suit at top speed.
Seeing me approach, a vicious look flashed across the man in the suit's face. With a flick of his wrist, he produced a handgun and instantly fired at me.
My body tensed instantly, my mental power reaching its peak!
At the same time, the power of the Shepherd God was pushed to its absolute limit!
In that split second, I suddenly felt as if the speed of that bullet had slowed down immeasurably.
I could even clearly see the angle of the bullet's rotation and the muzzle flash.
I instantly dodged a step to the side, and the bullet whizzed past my ear.
I quickly moved forward, intending to grab the man in the suit, only to see the guy actually throw the handgun towards me.
I instinctively reached out and caught it, then saw the man in the suit roll on the ground and appear beside the Gatling gun, gripping it in his hand.
My expression instantly changed at this sight!
I could dodge one bullet, but that didn't mean I could dodge countless bullets in an instant.
If the Gatling gun opened fire on me, without even thinking, I would definitely be hit, and I might even die!
"Stop right there, or die if you move!" the man in the suit said, holding the Gatling gun, his gaze fixed on me.
After thinking for a moment, I stood still.
As long as the other party didn't fire, I still had a chance, and I believed this guy wouldn't kill me so easily.
But that didn't mean he wouldn't!
Although their employer's request was to capture me alive, if I threatened his life, he certainly wouldn't hesitate to attack me.
"You're Lu Zi Ye, aren't you?" the man in the suit asked, staring at me.
"That's right," I replied. "It seems your status is a bit higher than the others. Can you tell me who sent you before I die?"
"Is that necessary?" the man in the suit asked with a faint smile. "I'll give you a chance. Hand over the item, and I'll spare your life!"
"Do you think I would believe you?" I said with a cold laugh, looking at the man in the suit. "With the item in my hand, I still have leverage for negotiation. Once the item is out of my hands, I'll be like a fish at your mercy!"
"Hahaha, interesting," the man in the suit burst into laughter. "But isn't the result the same now?"
I looked at the man in the suit in front of me, and while talking to him, my mind was racing.
With my current speed, I probably couldn't take him down before he fired.
If I couldn't take him down, it meant I would always be in a passive state.
This turned it into a complete dead end.
While I was thinking, my gaze suddenly shifted behind the man in the suit, where I saw an arm.
Seeing this, I knew an opportunity had arrived: "Do you really want what I have?"
"It's not me who wants it, it's the employer," the man in the suit replied.
"No problem, you can have it, but this thing is too secretive. I don't want anyone else to see it!" I said. "Have everyone else turn their backs to us!"
The man in the suit sneered: "Didn't you hear? Turn around!"
Although these people hadn't attacked me before, the situation was not under my control at the moment.
So I wasn't sure of their current stance.
If they noticed something was wrong and alerted the man in the suit, the situation would become difficult again.
"You want to see, right?" I asked with a faint smile.
"I advise you not to play any tricks. It won't do you any good," the man in the suit said with a cold smile.
"I'll show you," I said, then unbuttoned my shirt, revealing the tattoo.
The Tree of Life tattoo had changed. Besides the basic trunk, there was now a branch.
"What is this?" The man in the suit asked, confused by the tattoo.
"The secret to eternal life!"
I said slowly.
Hearing this, the man in the suit's expression changed: "Does the secret to eternal life truly exist in this world?"
"To be precise, I have already unlocked this secret," I said, looking at the man in the suit.
"Tell me!" the man in the suit roared. "How can one achieve eternal life?"
I remained silent.
"If you don't tell me, I'll kill you!" the man in the suit shouted.
Eternal life held a fatal attraction for an ordinary human.
Otherwise, ancient emperors wouldn't have spent their days pondering elixirs of immortality.
And now, when I told him that eternal life was indeed possible, he naturally wouldn't let such an opportunity slip by.
Such a secret, if used for oneself, could lead to immortality. If it could be sold, what price would it fetch?
In today's highly developed society, there was no shortage of powerful and wealthy individuals who would pay an extremely exorbitant price for eternal life.
As long as one possessed this secret, they could essentially control the world!
