C201 You Are Fired



C201 You Are Fired

1With the rest of the copper, Du Kang and the others arrived at Ulken Volcano.     3

    

There were no more twists and turns along the way. Under Du Kang's vigilance, even if a rabbit were to approach the convoy, it would still be discovered. Of course, because of the leakage of the news, there are also some blind robbers or hijackers who want to come and make a fortune, and there are even a few dragons, however, Du Kang had no intention of looking at them fresh. He just raised his shotgun and smashed their heads one by one.    

    

He still felt that if he had been serious earlier, those two people would not have died.    

    

At Wyrken Volcano, Du Kang and the others received a grand welcome. Hephaestus... should be called Vulcain now. After receiving the copper, he was very shocked. Although he had communicated with Yuri from a long distance, his eyes were still wide open when he saw the real copper.    

    

"This is metal from Atlantis, the ancient city of the deep sea. It's not something ordinary metal can compare with." Yuri said in front of Du Kang. He blew at Vulcain and said, "The ancient dwarf empire called this metal Al-Ha Steel. It means Mountain Copper. You know how powerful the dwarves were back then. Even gods like you might not be able to defeat them. "    

    

Although Du Kang did not know the name of Deep One's city, it was definitely not Atlantis. As for the dwarf's copper, although the dwarf couldn't compare to the Deep One in terms of mining processing, it was still a miracle. However, in terms of mining development, they were several streets ahead of the Deep One. They had never imported any metals. Not to mention copper...    

    

"It's strong enough, and it can be maintained very well. It's slightly lighter than ordinary metals." Yuri picked up a metal ingot and weighed it in his hand. "You can take any sample you want to try. However, you know how many people want this batch of goods along the way. You can think about how much you should pay. You don't need to have people who want it."    

    

The transaction went smoothly, even though Du Kang did not know what Vulcain had used to pay the bill in the end. Under Vulcain's kind invitation, Du Kang and the others attended the banquet organized by Vulcain. At the banquet, Du Kang and Vulcain understood each other's interest in forging, so Du Kang stayed for a few more days. He talked to Vulcain about some technical problems.    

    

But in the end, there was no such thing as a banquet that would never come to an end.    

    

The giant dragon left after getting Du Kang's promise to make him a set of armor. At first, the dragon did not want to leave, but the contract had expired after all. Du Kang also did not want to raise this idle man who did not have enough food to work. Thus, after being kicked twice, the dragon flew back to its lair.    

    

And now, before leaving, it still had to deal with Yuri's problem.    

    

"You still owe me an explanation."    

    

Riding on the huge horse personally made by Nyarlathotep. Du Kang looked down at Yuri, who was dressed in black.    

    

"Lying to me is meaningless. I can see it."    

    

"Okay, boss." Yuri bowed slightly. "It was indeed planned by me, but there was an accident..."    

    

"Oh?"    

    

Du Kang looked down at Yuri.    

    

"Speak."    

    

"My original plan was to throw out a few samples." Yuri explained, "The quality of the sample is good enough, and it is also the raw material of the weapon. This kind of thing that is related to life and death will definitely be robbed. With Vulcain, the God of Craftsmen, endorsing the sample, these materials will soon be able to open up a market. "    

    

"But there was an accident." Yuri sighed faintly. "Before I threw out the sample, those robbers appeared. Then... "    

    

"And then you followed them?"    

    

Du Kang's eyes were glowing red.    

    

"Yes, boss." Yuri lowered his head. "Throwing some samples out is part of the plan. But I didn't expect..."    

    

"I didn't think that the other party would come knocking on my door?" Du Kang's eyes shone with a bright red light, "Or I didn't expect that even I wouldn't be able to stop those robbers from killing people?"    

    

"I..." Yuri was stunned. He said, "I didn't mean that..."    

    

"Yuri..." Du Kang shook his head. "You didn't tell me when you did things. I told you to wake up. You didn't listen to me. I don't blame you because you have been doing very well all this time."    

    

"But this time, you have a big problem." Du Kang looked at Yuri and said, "It is a matter of life and death. You haven't said a word until now. Tell me, what are those two lives to you?"    

    

"I..."    

    

Yuri fell into silence.    

    

"Forget it, there's no need to say anymore." Du Kang waved his hand. "I'm not interested in the business you have. I won't care what business you do."    

    

"Yuri, from today onwards, you are your own boss."    

    

Du Kang exhaled.    

    

"You are fired."    

    

Ignoring Yuri's shocked expression, Du Kang urged the giant horse to leave.    

    

It was time to go back and rest.    

    

————————    

    

"The goods have been delivered" Yuri looked at the man in front of him and said, "Find some time to clear the final payment."    

    

The man in front of him gave Yuri a very bad feeling. The way he held the bone staff and wore a robe always reminded Yuri of some bad memories.    

    

He hoped that he could pay the bill normally.    

    

It had been a long time since he was fired, and he no longer sold weapons. However, even if he could no longer obtain those divine weapons, relying on the copper that he sold Deep One for, he would still be able to live comfortably.    

    

However, it was far from being comparable to when he was selling weapons back then.    

    

The remaining eleven guards had already retired back then. They were already old. But Yuri had no intention of hiring new guards. It was already tiring enough to bear the lives of these eleven people, he did not want to add more burdens to his burden.    

    

Sometimes, Yuri would also think of the days when he was not fired. If he did not make mistakes in the past and had the boss behind him, he might still be able to chat and laugh with heroes from all walks of life. Now that he was fired and he had become the boss, although he could still talk and laugh with the heroes from all walks of life, there would still be some special circumstances.    

    

For example... now.    

    

A package was pushed in front of him by the bone staff.    

    

"What do you mean?" Yuri frowned and opened the package. "I don't do medicine business."    

    

"These are not medicine." The man holding the bone staff pointed to the bone powder in the package and explained, "These are all good things."    

    

"As long as it's this small..." The man picked up a handful of bone powder and said,... "sprinkle it into the barn and you can get an entire city of skeleton soldiers."    

    

"If you do that, you will become enemies with the gods." Yuri shook his head. "I still have to take this into consideration."    

    

"Gods? I killed a god." The man holding the bone staff showed a twisted smile. "Of course Xue Chou will pay with his blood."    

    

"Remember to pay the rest."    

    

Looking at the crazy state of the man, Yuri shook his head and was ready to leave.    

    

A bone staff stopped him.    

    

"You won't take it?"    

    

Yuri shook his head.    

    

The green light pierced through Yuri's leg.    

    

Looking down at Yuri who was lying on the ground, the man pointed the bone staff in his hand at Yuri's head.    

    

What a madman...    

    

Yuri let out a barely noticeable sigh.    

    

"Alright, take it." Yuri nodded frantically. "I'll take it, I'll take it."    

    

"That's more like it..." The man took back the bone staff in his hand. "Take this and get lost..."    

    

Bang!    

    

A violent explosion broke the silence.    

    

Ignoring the corpse whose head had been shattered, Yuri struggled to stand up.    

    

The hole on his leg healed at a visible speed, including his clothes.    

    

Yuri also thought that perhaps he should just take off his clothes and retire. However, not only did the clothes keep him youthful, they had also saved his life time and time again.    

    

He really wanted to retire...    

    

But I still have to kill my way out first.    

    

Yuri took out his gun, pushed open the door, and left.    

    

His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's.
