312: It's really that mustache.
Actually, one really couldn't blame Tang Ku for being shocked.
In fact, any modern person would be startled if they saw this person's face.
There was once a Germanic Xiao Huzi, an art student who graduated from a state high school, who ignited a war that swept the entire world... He was an aggressor, a devil, and an unparalleled ruler!
With that signature toothbrush mustache, slicked-back hair, distinct loud voice, and personal charisma, I don't think there's anyone who wouldn't know the name: "Adolf Hitler"!
That's right, if the person in front of Tang Ku changed his outfit, he would look exactly like that legendary Xiao Huzi!
A coincidence? Perhaps it really could be a coincidence, but when combined with his glib manner just now, and everything Tang Ku had seen and heard, the possibility of it being a coincidence was really not high!
"If it really is Xiao Huzi who has come, then things are going to get interesting... That guy hidden in the depths of the Universe brought this fellow over, but I don't know for what purpose..."
Tang Ku curled his lip, "But it definitely won't be anything good... Damn it, I, a monk, am almost becoming a Physique that attracts disasters... Hmm, this guy has no cultivation at all; perhaps he isn't really him... However, I still need to keep a close eye on him..."
That Xiao Huzi finished his ale, threw a coin that looked like a silver disc onto the table, smiled, and prepared to leave.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Guest... Guest, don't leave yet... Your... your silver coin, we... we can't provide change for it..."
"Heh, if you can't provide change, then just treat it as me buying everyone in this tavern a drink..."
Xiao Huzi waved his hand and said quite generously.
"Heh, long live..."
The small tavern immediately erupted in cheers and quickly became boisterous.
The tavern owner was overjoyed. Even if he added up the drink tabs of everyone in the tavern and multiplied it by ten, it still wouldn't equal the value of this one silver coin. This guest was truly a god of wealth sent from heaven.
Seeing him walk out of the tavern, Tang Ku immediately followed. The other party had no fluctuations of power on him, but given the nature of that so-called Master, it was very likely he had been granted some other abilities. Therefore, Tang Ku carefully trailed him from a distance, hiding all his own mana fluctuations.
The two were dozens to a hundred meters apart, and later the distance grew even greater because the places they walked became increasingly desolate and sparsely populated. Very quickly, they left the town and headed toward a coniferous forest not far away.
In the end, Tang Ku quietly flew up, hovering in the sky as he followed behind him, watching as he walked into the forest.
By now, the sky was gradually darkening, and the light was already insufficient. However, in the forest, there were twinkling lights, as if someone had deliberately lit lamps and was waiting for him there.
"There is definitely something wrong. If they were a merchant caravan, having finally encountered a town, they would never camp in such a remote place outside the city; that would be even less safe than entering the city."
Tang Ku frowned slightly, hiding in the high treetop of what looked like a pine tree, watching that guy walk into the forest and stop in a clearing.
This guy didn't speak but instead whistled, and then eleven people wearing black cloaks, about the same height as the Xiao Huzi in front of him, slowly walked out from the darkness.
"You've returned? The harvest from this trip to the Great Tang must have been significant!"
One of the men in black said in a deep voice.
"Heh, it's alright!"
Xiao Huzi laughed, "What about you? Have you obtained any more news from our High Priest?"
"That guy is about to slip out of our control. If you hadn't returned, we would have attempted forceful measures, perhaps even at the cost of the High Priest's life!"
Another man in black said.
"What, that guy got a little power and no longer takes us seriously?" Xiao Huzi laughed, "Heh, don't worry, the most important power is in our hands; he can't make any big waves. Besides, someone is helping us do all the work, haven't we saved a lot of effort? And him... no matter how he courts death, taking care of him would only be a matter of a snap of the fingers..."
"Since that's the case, do we still need to perform Body Integration?"
Another cloaked person asked with some doubt, "That High Priest is ambitious. If he continues to act alone, I fear we won't be able to suppress him!"
Xiao Huzi laughed and said indifferently: "His power was given by me, given by Lord Tesla; it's very easy to take back. Hmm, but you are right, now is the perfect time for Body Integration. In the upcoming actions, we must go all out!"
In mid-air, Tang Ku's pupils shrank sharply: "As expected, this guy is in cahoots with Darwin and Tesla. In other words, he really is..."
Before Tang Ku could finish, all the cloaked people on the ground pulled back their hoods, instantly revealing eleven identical faces.
Twelve Xiao Huzi, each speaking in a different tone, as if they were twelve siblings, looked extremely eerie!
And as they revealed their eyes, beams of cyan light projected out from their eyes, finally converging at a single point in the center.
The radiance was dazzling, and the cyan light instantly transformed into a crimson red. Tang Ku's face instantly darkened because he was very familiar with the power represented by this red light; it was a special kind of Evil Qi. Generally speaking, only those powerful Devil Heads would have this kind of aura appear.
The red light shone for three to five seconds, and the twelve identical people had already disappeared, replaced by a middle-aged man of average height, with slicked-back hair, a mustache, and wearing a black Nazi trench coat.
Looking at the swastika insignia on his collar, Tang Ku couldn't help but twitch his mouth: "Those guys actually brought this madman into this world... With his leadership ability, plus being granted powerful strength, his ambition will likely inflate even further! No, I must nip this threat in the bud... Hmm, but... what kind of guy is that High Priest he mentioned earlier? That is also a ticking time bomb, very likely to cause an even greater threat, not to mention that so-called Steel Castle..."
The fist he had already raised fell back down again, and Tang Ku couldn't help but laugh at himself: "This name seems to have put too much pressure on me, making me overlook so many important things... Hmph, I'll follow him to see what kind of person that High Priest really is before deciding. If possible... I will eliminate all the threats here!"
The Xiao Huzi on the ground smiled slightly, stroked his mustache, and said with a faint smile: "I didn't expect that in such a world, there would still be an opportunity for me to display my talents... I can't wait to launch another war to unify the globe!"
