Chapter 98: Public Assasination

"This suit is very suitable for Elder Zeke!"

No one noticed that Phoenix Kingdom's King Grace and Prime Minister Deron were quietly watching the speech in the corner of the second floor of the conference hall.

"He's brightly dressed in this outfit, but I'm more concerned about what he's going to talk about today. I hope it's not something that bores me to the point of leaving early."

Grace said so, but she still couldn't help looking at Zeke more and more.

Today's Zeke is different from the image she has seen before. The whole person has a lot of spirit, no matter in terms of size and shape, he is stronger than before.

Naturally, he is more energetic and has more appeal. He also looks more handsome.

At the same time, in another corner of the second floor, a foreigner in a casual shirt with a U-shaped beard, sunken eye sockets, blue eyes, and a rather western appearance, is also looking at Zeke.

"Is this the guy who is being hailed as the tech genius of today?"

"Looks like he's very confident."

The person glanced at the audience, but did not see any security measures or traces of bodyguards, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

If there are people from the Phoenix Security Bureau here, they will be able to recognize at a glance that this foreigner is no one else but the seventh in the world's assassin rankings, "Scalpel".

The reason he was named Scalpel was because his murder weapon was a scalpel.

His killing style is to easily slit the target's throat without feeling the target's awareness.

Even the target himself can't react immediately.

But unlike ordinary killers, Scalpel's killing style is more public. Other killers like to assassinate when the target is alone, or when there are few people around, but Scalpel prefers the more people around, the better.

The screams of the people around him and the terrified expressions will make him happy and enjoy it.

Especially after the murder, he mixes into the crowd, disappearing without a trace, and leave calmly, which added a bloody color to his whole person, and became the object of fear of countless rich and powerful people.

"It's really easy to earn this $30 million reward."

Scalpel put a piece of chewing gum into his mouth and chewed it recklessly, looking at Zeke with a playful look in his eyes.

...

"Nice to meet you all!"

"I am also very grateful to Principal Tapang for giving me such an opportunity to stand here and express my thoughts to everyone."

Although it was his first speech, it was as if he had been doing this many times before. Zeke, who was used to seeing the wind and waves, was not at all restrained and nervous about it. He greeted everyone with ease, and said his opening remarks calmly.

"As everyone knows, I have a lot of titles now, the changer of the future era, the supernova of the world's technology industry, the next great man to change the world... But, these kinds of titles bother me, because I never feel that apart from my super high looks and intelligence, I am nothing at all."

As soon as Zeke's shameless words came out, there was a burst of laughter from the audience.

"Actually, before today, I always wondered what I should say, because whether it is the microbots, Baymax, or Iron Man, they are all very high-end and powerful technologies. Behind every technology, there are many stories. I'll finish speaking in just two hours, and I am not happy with what I say, and everyone will not be happy with it."

"The only thing that doesn't have many stories, but is full of interest, should be the Phoenix Tree, which has been more active in the circle of friends recently."

"So today I'm going to tell you about how I created the Phoenix Tree."

Hearing this, many people in the audience immediately became shocked.

The most popular right now is not Baymax, not Iron Man, but the Phoenix Tree.

An unimaginable building has become a hot topic among the whole people, especially the various versions of legends that have been inexplicably circulated in the follow-up, which has made many people full of curiosity about the Phoenix Tree, even if they are not very concerned about this kind of information. Interested people also began to pay attention.

Now that Zeke, the creator of the Phoenix Tree, told the origin of it personally, everyone's curiosity naturally began to grow.

For the next hour, Zeke told everyone interestingly about the process of creating the Phoenix Tree.

In order to make the speech more interesting, attractive and not boring, Zeke also added a lot of plots from the online novels he had read in his previous life, which made the whole speech process very exciting. Even Grace couldn't help but listen to it.

"What an interesting story."

"I really want to hear the ending... but unfortunately, the interesting story is destined to end here."

Scalpel in the corner of the second floor stretched and quietly left his seat.

When he appeared again, he had come to the left side of the stage, holding a large bouquet of flowers in his hand.

At this time, he was wearing a pair of round-frame glasses, the U-shaped beard on his face had been taken off, and the original hairstyle had completely changed. He looked no longer in his thirties, but more like in his twenties. A young, intellectual-looking foreign student camouflage.

This is the most basic skill of an assassin.

In this way, he gracefully stepped onto the stage under the unexpected eyes of countless people.

Although everyone's interest in listening to the story was interrupted, they all showed a happy expression after seeing the flowers in Scalpel's hand.

"Mr. Zeke, your story is amazing! I'm your fan, please accept my gift."

Scalpel looked nervous and excited, perfectly interpreting the word acting.

After all, assassinations are high-risk occupations. Once their acting skills are seen through, they are not far from death.

"Thanks."

Zeke naturally did not have too much doubt, and took the large bouquet of flowers with a smile.

However, just when this bunch of flowers was blocking the two of them, the corner of Scalpel's mouth twitched, his wrist flicked, and a cold light swept towards Zeke's neck at an unseen speed.
