"To be able to wipe out all five gunmen, he must be at least a level five martial artist." Morrill clenched his fists tightly, his expression somewhat unpleasant. "That girl Weilan did bring back a formidable bodyguard from the Xia Federation."
"Master, should I send more people over?" The old butler, who was about fifty or sixty years old, had a very calm expression and said in a low voice, "Even a martial artist can't defeat a large number of gunmen."
Even a seventh-level martial artist who has reached great perfection can be succumbed to human wave tactics. In this modern society, personal strength isn't the only path; there are also various forms of martial arts. Furthermore, the vast network of connections and resources mobilized are beyond the imagination of a lone ranger.
"No need." Morrill shook his head. "The Force Crystals left behind by that old devil Vidan have been coveted by many. If Charles had succeeded before, it would have been fine. But now he's failed and been killed. If I send more people there, they'll only give me a handle. - You have to know that the law prohibits individuals from carrying high-pressure weapons."
Morrill had friends, but naturally he also had rivals. Furthermore, the kingdom was full of powerful individuals, and he wasn't the only one who could do whatever he wanted. If he went too far, he would be attacked harshly.
He is not stupid and knows that doing things too high-profile will only bring trouble to himself.
"Then Master, are you going to do it yourself?"
The butler was silent for a moment before slowly asking.
"Since he's a martial artist above level five, it's enough for me to intervene." Morrill smiled faintly upon hearing this, then put on his clothes and walked out. "Besides, the haunted house left by Weidan has been vacant for so many years. It's time for me to go in and take a look."
(Rome wasn't built in a day, and villains aren't made in a single chapter. Loli Xu's intelligence and methods aren't inherently unfathomable. So please keep your anticipation and read on... This book is long, and the plot will get more and more exciting. I hope you'll support me with votes, rewards, and comments!)
