409: Reis's actions

Five days later.

Longbow Stream Valley — Diamond Queen Hotel.

Thank you all for traveling from afar to be here with us today.

And what we want to show you all today is the second-generation mandel unit, which the Hafuk Group has poured its heart and soul into and comprehensively improved!

On the stage, a researcher from the Hafuk Group, dressed in a white lab coat, was holding a piece of mandel brick in their hand.

Below the stage were countless reporters and a group of bigwigs in gorgeous attire, looking every bit like people in positions of power.

On the protruding railing of the hotel's second floor, a luxurious and expensive sofa chair had been placed.

Jacob, dressed in an elegant black suit, sat on the chair, watching the scene below with a smile.

Demulan, now also wearing a formal suit, stood solemnly behind Jacob.

But even in a suit, Demulan still had an M700 sniper rifle strapped to her back and a 93r pistol hanging at her waist.

Mr. Jacob, why must we choose to hold the press conference here?

Hearing this question, Jacob smiled slightly.

Since we want to use technology to benefit humanity, we naturally have to choose the country with the most backward technology.

Only in this way can the effects be better seen.

As for why I chose the Diamond Queen Hotel, do you think anyone would dare to participate in Babel Tower after the attack at the brain-machine interface press conference?

Jacob shook his head helplessly.

But after hearing this, Demulan asked again with a worried look on her face:

But this time at the Diamond Queen Hotel...

Don't worry. Jacob raised his hand to interrupt Demulan.

I have already reached an agreement with Reis.

He has no reason to refuse me now.

He doesn't need to do anything; he just needs to ensure that we can successfully finish this press conference, and Hafke will treat his injuries.

Hearing Jacob say this, the worry on Demulan's face lessened a little, but she was still somewhat uneasy.

It wasn't until she heard Jacob's next words that she completely set her mind at ease.

He can only live for another six months at most.

And with Asara's medical standards, it is absolutely impossible to treat his injuries.

We hold shares in medical companies in other countries to varying degrees, so he wouldn't feel safe going there.

If he dares to pull any small tricks this time, he can forget about getting his injuries treated.

He is capable of understanding this much.

Bang—!

Just as Jacob finished speaking, several bullet holes instantly appeared in the doors of the Diamond Queen Hotel!

The bullets passed through the holes, firing indiscriminately at the reporters and bigwigs present.

Some who were standing near the door were hit by bullets on the spot, and bright red blood seeped out from their clothes.

Ah—!

In an instant, the interior of the Diamond Queen Hotel, which had been quiet and peaceful, exploded into chaos!

Bang—

Immediately after, a muffled sound came from the hotel entrance.

Reis, holding an S12K shotgun, kicked the door open.

Behind Reis, a large number of Asala Guard Soldier units poured in like a tide.

Click—

They raised their guns one after another, aiming at the reporters and various bigwigs present.

Don't move if you don't want to die.

Reis, carrying the S12K shotgun on his shoulder and humming a little tune, strolled through the crowd of reporters and bigwigs and walked straight onto the stage.

Bang—!

With a single shot, the head of the researcher who had been holding the mandel brick and giving the presentation instantly exploded!

After he died, the fallen mandel brick was picked up by Reis, who bent down to retrieve it.

Seeing this, Jacob's face was first stunned, but after a few seconds of processing what had happened, it turned into anger.

His face was so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water.

Behind him, Demulan instantly drew her M700 sniper rifle.

Sensing Demulan's movement, Jacob raised his hand to stop her, then looked coldly toward Reis and said through gritted teeth:

Reis... what are you doing?

Following the sound, Reis raised an eyebrow and looked at Jacob on the second floor, revealing a mouthful of gold teeth as he smiled:

Are you blind? Can't you see what I'm doing?

Upon hearing this, Jacob felt a stifling sensation in his chest.

After a few deep breaths, he managed to adjust his state.

Have you forgotten what you promised me?

In your heart, is there not even a shred of cooperative spirit?!

Do you know that from the moment you committed these actions, no hospital in this world, not even privately run medical units, will treat you!

Jacob's threat, reaching Reis's ears, felt like being hit by cotton; it had no effect.

Moron.

Acting like you have any cooperative spirit.

Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. If I let you finish the press conference smoothly, would you actually arrange for my treatment?

It's all mutual utilization; don't make it sound so nice. Cooperation, my ass!

Jacob stood up abruptly in anger, pointing at Reis, gnashing his teeth.

When we were cooperating, there was a lie detector next to us!

I said I would treat you, so it's absolutely impossible for me to break my word!

As he finished speaking, a flash of doubt crossed Jacob's eyes.

When Reis faced the lie detector at that time...

The lie detector didn't go off either!

Why?

That was your lie detector; who knows if you tampered with it?

Bang—!

After saying this, Reis casually fired a shot, killing a reporter who was trying to escape.

I said, if you don't want to die, stay here honestly!

After glaring fiercely at everyone, Reis turned his head and looked at Jacob with a playful expression.

He changed the subject and said:

However, to prevent your lie detector from actually working, I kept a backup plan.

I only promised you not to pull any small tricks.

But I never said I wouldn't pull any big moves.

After finishing, Reis looked at Jacob and laughed mockingly.

Demulan narrowed her eyes and instantly raised the sniper rifle in her hands.

At this distance, even without using the scope, relying solely on intuition, Demulan could directly blow Reis's head off.

Bang—!

Almost at the same time Demulan raised her gun, Reis's expression changed, and he casually grabbed a bigwig from the audience and blocked himself with them.

The bullet that would have originally penetrated the bigwig's body and shot toward Reis...

After hitting the bulletproof vest the bigwig was wearing, did not penetrate, but remained in their body, having lost all kinetic energy.

Reis, who survived, wasn't much better off.

The sudden exertion just now tugged at the bone fragments inside his body, and the severe pain made him unable to help but grimace.

Bitch!

You're fucking asking for death!

Reis threw the bigwig's body aside, raised the S12K, and began firing wildly at the second floor!

Bullets instantly sank into Jacob's legs and abdomen.

And Demulan, who was behind him, was also hit by bullets in her arm and ribs!
