Chapter 10098: Preparations before the War (Please subscribe, please vote)
In the following days, the situation was almost the same as Roy had predicted.
The lower-class civilians, even freemen, artisans, and the working class were all very excited and were almost telling each other the news.
Too many people died during the Grace Festival. Even if no one in your family was killed, everyone has relatives or friends.
They were naturally very excited to see the great pirate Gis being killed this time.
But those wealthy merchants and nobles remained silent, like the calm before the storm, foreshadowing even more terrible chaos.
Then, in silence, some nobles chose to leave, taking their families to other cities for temporary residence for a short period of time, avoiding the situation whenever possible.
Without a doubt, this is the wisest choice, whether there is unrest or not, just stay away from it.
But in reality, not many people can make this choice!
Even those wealthy merchants had their money tied up in their businesses and production tasks to complete. How could they just leave like that?!
Therefore, most people's choice is to withdraw guards, strengthen vigilance, or hire more powerful mercenaries or detectives.
According to Ang's information, the current hiring price of mercenaries and detectives in Oakland City has at least tripled.
Especially those well-known second-level mercenaries, who were even robbed.
Some wealthy businessmen, unable to find mercenaries, actually set their sights on certain gangs, such as the Bloody Hand Gang, and accepted the mission.
To be honest, if you tell others that you hired gang members to help guard your house, you will be laughed at.
However, they did it anyway, and after it started, more and more such incidents occurred.
This situation further exacerbated the tense atmosphere in the city!
Luo Yi actually planned to take everyone away first. If I can't afford to offend him, can't I just hide from him?
However, after careful consideration, he gave up the idea.
No matter how you look at it, Auckland is still orderly and people can be cautious. If he really runs to the wilderness, he is afraid that he will attract countless people to beat him up.
Once this group of people recognize him, they will definitely keep an eye on his whereabouts. He is like meat on the chopping board, he cannot escape!
But since you can't avoid it, then face it!
Luo Yi really wanted to know whether his current fighting power could fight against Chaofan.
What he wanted to know more was who dared to kill him?
When this thought came up, Luo Yi could no longer suppress it.
Of course, the preliminary preparations and arrangements must continue.
For example, he went to the Ancient Mage Tower and had an in-depth conversation with Mrs. Linda.
If chaos breaks out in Auckland City, there are still safe places. Roy thinks that the Mage Tower of the Philante Magic Academy is one of them!
So, he wanted to entrust Lilia Lightninger and the two children of the Maruna family here.
Only when you have no worries can you act without restraint!
Furthermore, Luo Yi had previously ordered three sets of double-layer snake-scale armor, but because they were made on the spot, he had not yet picked them up.
Now, knowing that danger was about to come, Luo Yi naturally prepared to take it out.
However, the efficiency of classical alchemy has always been low, and so far, only two sets of double-layer snake scale armor have been produced.
Just two pairs, Loy wore one himself and gave one to Oliveira.
They are the main combat force, so naturally they have to maximize their defense!
In addition, Roy also bought a magic pistol with the "armor-piercing" attribute from Gary Mills.
This pistol is also a revolver, with an enlarged magazine that can hold ten bullets, a lengthened barrel with purple magic patterns attached to it, and every shot is like a dragon spewing out anger.
So, this specially made magic pistol is also called 'Rage'.
To be precise, it is actually a combination of magical machinery and classical alchemy. It has the advantages of a magical pistol and the added "armor-piercing" attribute.
Each time you activate a weapon, you have to spend 100 magic points, and the effect is that the bullets have more penetration and a longer range.
This was Gary Mills' former main weapon. Before he obtained the gold and silver guns, he relied on this magic gun to conquer the world.
Of course, the reason why Roy spent a lot of money to buy it was more because this gun could use those special bullets.
Holy water bullets, silver water bullets, fire bullets, freeze bullets, etc...
If these are used properly, they can play a big role!
In addition, he also bought a batch of magic potions, including healing, detoxification, and restoration of fighting spirit.
After the matter was settled, Roy and Oliveira walked out of the gate of the Mage Tower. They got on the carriage and left without looking back.
Mage Tower, sixth floor, by the window.
Mrs. Linda and Gary Mills just stood there watching quietly.
When the carriage was about to disappear from view and was blocked by other buildings, Gary Mills finally spoke:
"Can't we let them hide in the Mage Tower?"
Madam Linda slowly shook her head. "No, we at the Mage Tower have been warned long ago not to get involved in this chaos."
"Although I am a second-level potion master, I am only a second-level potion master. In this magic tower, my words do not count!"
After a pause, she raised her head again, nodded slightly, and said, "Besides, didn't you notice?"
"Luo Yi didn't actually mention it, which means they knew it in their hearts."
"This is the threshold they must cross. Once they cross it, not many people in Auckland will dare to mess with them.
Only then will he be able to gain a firm foothold!"
Gary Mills' eyes flickered as he asked, "If you can't get involved, what about me?"
Mrs. Linda turned her head in surprise and asked, "No way, you've only been together for a few days, and you're already willing to help him?"
"Come to think of it, I'm also curious. You actually sold your 'rage' to him. Didn't you say you wanted to keep it as a souvenir?"
Gary Mills did not look back, as if he did not dare to look Mrs. Linda in the eye.
But he still replied: "A gunsmith apprentice who is rich and willing to spend money is hard to find!"
"Besides, he is extremely talented. To be precise, I think he is much better than me."
"If the Hawkeye School is to flourish, it will probably depend on him."
Mrs. Linda couldn't help but cover her mouth: "Isn't this comment a bit exaggerated?"
Gary Mills nodded, then shook his head and asked, "Just tell me, is it okay?"
Madam Linda hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to attack directly, but I remember you have long-range methods, right?"
"If you really need it, you can use it! But you have to know when to stop."
"Understood!"
…
19 Lombard Street, first floor, training ground.
A mirror as tall as a person is placed against the wall, reflecting the entire layout of the training room.
This was specially arranged by Luo Yi so that when practicing, he could see his movements most intuitively and then make corrections.
Of course, Luo Yi was not practicing at this time, but standing in front of the mirror, sorting out his equipment.
First he took off his outer clothes, leaving only his underwear, and then he put on double-layer snake-scale armor.
The cool snake skin felt very special and slippery against his skin. Luo Yi couldn't help twisting his body and took a long time to adapt before he could calm down the strange feeling in his heart.
The surface of the snake scale armor is made of layers of snake scales, which have been processed using special techniques and have become the size of a baby's palm. It shines silver and is extremely flexible.
Between the snake skin and the scales, there are magic patterns, densely packed and layered, eventually forming a six-layer magic circle.
Luo Yi's mind moved, and magic power was infused into it. The layers of magic patterns lit up, so that rays of light shone through the scales.
In front of Luo Yi, the magic of six-fold 'deflection force field' completely enveloped him, and no matter where he turned, it would follow him like a shadow.
The six-fold deflection force field can even block bullets from long-range magic sniper rifles.
Even if the shell explodes at close range, it can alleviate most of the impact force, and the effect is definitely remarkable.
In addition, the double arrangement of snake scales can provide good defense against stabbing attacks.
The only shortcoming is probably the concussion damage of heavy weapons.
However, we should not expect perfection in everything. This is already a rare-level magic equipment and is extremely good.
Then, Loy put a gun bag around his waist, with a Colt revolver on the right and a Magic Fury revolver on the left.
The bullets were still placed in the special magazine and put into the gun bag one by one.
He was wearing deerskin boots, a magical item that gave him a light and agile effect.
However, after putting on these equipment, it was no longer possible for Luo Yi to wear a slim-fitting gentleman's suit.
So, he simply chose a gray windbreaker and put it on.
He wore a top hat on his head and turned up the collar of his coat, covering most of his face, making him look a bit mysterious.
As for the cane, he no longer likes to use it since Luo Yi's strength improved and he became more confident.
What's the point of such a young guy holding a cane?
Finally, he took the Dawn Sword in his hand. The sword was unsheathed and shook slightly. Mach rings appeared from the sword body, spreading and diffusing.
At this moment, Luo Yi felt the tremendous power within his body, the powerful heartbeat, the pure and quiet flow of fighting spirit, and the overactive magic power...
He just felt that he was terrifyingly strong!
Turning his head slightly, he looked at Oliveira, who was dressed similarly, suppressed a grin, and said, "Teacher, when do you say the enemy will arrive?"
"Now, I'm really excited to try it!"
Oliveira tightened his belt, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "It should be very soon!"
yes,
Very soon!
So, time passed quickly and it was already three days later.
evening,
Dark clouds gathered, blocking out the last bit of sunlight. Just as the world was about to sink into complete darkness, a beautiful song rang out between heaven and earth.
There are no lyrics, it is purely based on the melodious tune that touches the heart.
What responded to her was divine power. A pair of wings that covered the sky slowly unfolded, as if they could cover half of the city.
In the dazzling holy light, a figure stood in the air, holding a thorny wooden staff.
At this moment, even Luo Yi, who was fully prepared, was shaking with his sword!
No one told him,
This time, the chaos was actually started by a fourth-level strongman!
