Armor: Shura appears at the beginning

Chapter 274 Confrontation

Bei Miao curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer, as if he had already anticipated their reaction.

He calmly took out a piece of water-shadow stone that shone with a faint blue light from his backpack and held it high up to make it more dazzling in the dim environment: "This is my sincerity, and it also marks my complete break with my past identity as an armored warrior!"

"I took a huge risk to snatch the Water Shadow Stone from them. This is enough to prove that I have no way out and can only go with you." Bei Miao's words revealed a determination, as if he was saying goodbye to his past self.

Emu stared at the water-shadow stone, secretly thinking about the authenticity of Bei Miao's move. He knew that Bei Miao's move was serious, but he could not completely rule out the possibility that it was a self-torture trick.

However, after some careful consideration, Emu shook his head slightly, as if he had a certain recognition of Bei Miao's sincerity, but he did not completely let down his guard.

"Okay, Bei Miao, we see your sincerity. But remember, the film industry never accepts anyone easily, and your test has just begun." There were both warnings and expectations in Emu's words. He believed that Bei Miao's joining would bring unprecedented changes to the film industry.

Given the current tensions between the Bei Miao and Armor Summoner factions, it seems impossible to work together to perform this drama. However, it is still necessary to explore its possibilities in depth.

"Bei Miao, if you really want to cooperate, what are your conditions?" Emu asked sincerely with a smile on his face.

Bei Miao looked solemn, his eyes passed over the evil tree, and finally fixed on the evil water, and slowly said: "Although I am willing to lend a helping hand to you, there are two prerequisites that must be met."

"First, my sister Xiaoxi must be released immediately. Her safety is of vital importance to me." Bei Miao's words were filled with unquestionable determination.

"Hey, Xiaoxi? Since you suggested it, there's no harm in letting her go." Emu responded lightly, his words revealing his indifference to life.

"And if I become one of you, we will be partners in the same boat. What I expect is not just superficial acceptance, but also expectations for the future."

Emu changed the subject, with a smile that hid something mysterious, trying to lure Bei Miao with an illusory promise, "I will pave a bright road for you and make your future bright."

Facing Emu's instigation, Bei Miao's eyes became even colder. He said word by word: "Before I devote myself wholeheartedly, I must see with my own eyes that Xiaoxi is safe and sound. This is my promise to her, and it is also my bottom line for this deal."

Although his voice was low, it revealed an unshakable firmness, as if he was declaring his position and determination to everyone present.

"Okay!" A sly smile appeared on Emu's lips, with a calculating gleam in his eyes. It was obvious that he was not surprised by Bei Miao's compromise, but instead regarded it as an opportunity for further manipulation.

Eshui nodded slightly, acquiescing to Emu's decision. Then she gestured, and the force that bound Xiaoxi dissipated instantly. Xiaoxi regained her freedom and ran towards Beimiao like a bird out of a cage, snuggling up to him closely. The fear and dependence were clearly visible in her eyes, and her body trembled slightly with lingering fear.

"Brother..." Xiaoxi's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but it was full of dependence and grievance towards Bei Miao. She held Bei Miao's arm tightly, as if it was her only safe haven.

Bei Miao gently patted the back of Xiao Xi's hand, giving her silent comfort: "Don't be afraid, brother is here, no one can hurt you."

His eyes were as sharp as torches, and he was always alert to the movements of the evil wood and evil water, secretly thinking about how to protect the safety of himself and his sister in this transaction.

Seeing this, Emu's smile widened. He knew that Bei Miao had fallen into a trap. The next step was how to cleverly use this cooperation to achieve his own conspiracy.

His eyes wandered between Bei Miao and Xiao Xi, and a more complicated web was quietly woven in his heart.

Bei Miao pondered for a moment, his eyes as sharp as torches, and finally firmly uttered the second condition: "Second, the mutant beast that attacked the orphanage, Moba, must be killed by me personally!"

When Emu heard this, his eyes sparkled, and he immediately smiled generously, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Moba can't be compared with the noble Water Armor Summoner."

He changed the subject and deliberately added a hint of doubt, "However, even with our abilities, it is difficult to make Demon Eight sit there and wait for death."

"You seem to have doubts about my ability?" Bei Miao's voice was low and powerful, and his eyes revealed a firmness and determination that should not be underestimated. "So, what do you think?"

"Of course there is a way." Emu smiled and stretched out his hand. In his palm lay a chip that was glowing faintly.

"This is an upgraded chip that we carefully developed. Once implanted, you will gain unprecedented power. This is not only a recognition of your strength, but also a small token of our appreciation as a welcome gift for you to join us."

He paused, and his tone became more seductive: "With it, Moba will no longer be your opponent. You can do whatever you want with it."

Bei Miao stared at the chip and weighed the options in his mind. He knew the potential traps behind upgrading the chip, but at this moment, he had to make a choice.

"Okay, I accept your terms." Bei Miao took the chip, his eyes were sharp.

The smile on Emu's lips became even wider, as if everything was under his control. He thought to himself: As long as Bei Miao is willing to implant the chip, he can become a chess piece in his hands.

However, he did not notice the cunning that flashed across Bei Miao's eyes, which was a sign of resistance and indomitable spirit against future destiny.

Bei Miao's eyes were firm and deep. He looked at Emu again. Seeing this, Emu chuckled and nodded with a relaxed look: "I, Emu, keep my words. As long as you complete this task, the agreement between us will take effect completely."

Bei Miao said nothing more. He turned around, his eyes fell gently on Xiao Xi, and whispered: "Xiao Xi, remember, no matter what happens, you must protect yourself. Brother will come back to find you as soon as possible."

Xiaoxi nodded vigorously, her eyes slightly red, but she tried hard not to let the tears fall, she knew that her brother was doing something very important.

She followed Bei Miao's instructions and quickly found a secluded corner to hide in, her eyes full of trust and support for her brother.

Seeing his sister settled, Bei Miao finally felt relieved. He took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and prepared to face the upcoming challenge. He looked down at the upgrade chip in his hand, feeling both expectation and vigilance.

He knew that this chip might bring more than just power, but also unknown dangers. But at this moment, he had no way out and could only move forward courageously.

Bei Miao pressed the chip tightly against his chest, closed his eyes, and felt the energy contained in the chip slowly flowing into his body.

His body began to undergo subtle changes, and an unprecedented powerful force surged in his body. He opened his eyes, and a determined light flashed in his eyes. He knew that he was ready to face the battle that belonged to him.

A meaningful smile appeared on Emu's lips. Bei Miao's actions were not shy. He slowly put his hand deep into his collar, and seemed to press gently somewhere on his chest. This action undoubtedly revealed a certain determination.

Emu was not disturbed at all. He had already made up his mind about Bei Miao's actions - it was all in vain.
