Chapter 9997: A desperate dog jumps over the wall (please subscribe, please vote)
April 10, 311 in the New Divine Calendar.
Nearing evening, Luo Yi returned from the Philante School of Magic. Although he had washed himself, he was still exhausted.
Now, he has to balance two professions. In the morning, he has to complete the high-intensity training of the Wind Swordsman, refine his breathing method, accumulate pure fighting spirit, and familiarize himself with combat skills.
In the afternoon, I had to learn all kinds of knowledge about the magic gunner from Gary Mills, meditate, and try out various skills. I was very busy.
Even if he came back at night, when he got home, he would still gather here with Lilia, Hoover, Maruna, Mira, Angel and others.
The purpose is naturally to report on today's work. Some things require him to make the final decision and determine the direction.
It’s really busy every day!
But it’s fulfilling enough!
Everything is going according to his set goals and moving forward, and he feels a great sense of accomplishment.
However, today, as soon as he stepped into the house, a blond young man came to visit him.
The two chatted in the study for only a few minutes before the blond young man said goodbye and left. Luo Yi saw him to the door.
Then he immediately returned to the second floor and looked out the window in his bedroom from a high vantage point.
He saw the blond young man walking towards the carriage nearby. Even from his back, he could feel the elegance and composure of aristocracy.
The blond young man seemed to feel Luo Yi's gaze, turned slightly and looked up.
Luo Yi did not avoid it either. The two of them met in mid-air. They smiled, nodded, and calmly got on the carriage and left.
Luo Yi didn't move until he saw the carriage disappear around the corner. Then he looked away, his expression showing confusion and contemplation.
On the side, Lilia finally couldn't help herself and asked, "Who is this person?"
Roy shook his head and turned back, saying, "He said his name is Miller Petrovich, and he's from the Executive Office!"
Lilia's originally nonchalant expression immediately turned serious. "Is he from the Petrovich family?"
“It should be!”
"Then what is he doing here?"
"He wants to pass on a message to that lord, asking me to be careful and not get killed!"
Lilia was nervous. "What does he mean? Is Lord Dorji going to attack you?"
"Have you ever seen someone who wanted to kill someone and kindly warned them?"
Luo Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I don't think Lord Dorji is so boring!"
"Could it be that someone wants to kill you and he received the news? But why would he warn you?"
After a pause, Lilia asked again, puzzled, "Although you've obtained so much pirate treasure, have you settled all the necessary matters during this period?"
"So, I'm also confused. Moreover, I think that since that person issued such a high-profile warning, it must be for no reason."
Luo Yi fell into deep thought, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, thinking through all the possibilities in his mind, and then eliminating them one by one.
He thought he had done his best and no one should cause trouble to him because of that wealth!
But if there is, then something must be missing, something has happened that he doesn't know about.
At this moment, footsteps were heard, very light but very hurried. When they got closer, they didn't even knock on the door, but pushed it open and walked in.
"Master Luo Yi, Master Luo Yi, there's a piece of news going around that's going viral!"
It was Ange who rushed in. Luo Yi suddenly turned his head and asked, "What news?"
"Gis, the great pirate Gis has been captured by the Imperial Royal Navy and is being escorted to Auckland City."
"Gis..."
Luo Yi's eyes flickered, gradually becoming brighter and brighter, and a series of flashes of inspiration flashed in his mind.
Gis, pirates, the God's Grace robbery, Baron Marquis, Lord Dorji, conflicts, falling outs, wars, chaos...
At this moment, even the shrewd Yiluo Yi couldn't help but curse out loud: "Damn it, it's only been peaceful for a few days, and it's going to be chaos again?"
Lilia asked in alarm, "Luo Yi, what do you mean? Why is it getting chaotic again? Is it even more chaotic than the previous Divine Grace Festival?"
Luo Yi looked at him, and after a brief silence, he said, "If we really compare them, the Divine Grace Festival is probably nothing!"
…
That night,
Everyone gathered together in the study again. No one spoke, and everyone waited silently.
In April, the weather was not too cold, but the fireplace was still lit. Everyone held a teacup and sipped the hot tea, feeling the bitterness and sweetness in it. No one spoke.
It wasn't until there was a knock on the door and Maruna and Butler Hoover came in one after another that everyone was finally gathered.
They arrived a little late, of course not because of procrastination, but to find out more specific information.
Hoover spoke first: "It has been confirmed that it came from the naval port.
It was said that the defeat of the three naval warships had caused the Imperial Navy to lose face, and the situation in Auckland was very serious.
As a result, the royal family was furious and directly dispatched an ironclad ship, the Emden, to the Silver Sea to block the Mist Pirates.
"After a fierce battle, the Mist Pirates fled in panic. It is said that the magic ship was damaged beyond recognition.
And Nagis wanted to control the sea beast to attack the ironclad ship, but was captured on the spot by a fourth-level strongman! "
"Even the giant crab sea monster was killed and became a trophy of the Imperial Navy."
Maruna Marquis took over the conversation and said, "The information here is similar, the only thing that is more clear is that the Emden is heading to Auckland.
The captain planned to execute Keith in Auckland as a deterrent to pirates."
"The empire's territory shall never be violated!"
The voice echoed in the study, and everyone was lost in thought until a hand was raised silently.
Mira Greenman looked puzzled and wanted to remain silent, but when she thought about Luo Yi's usual style of doing things, she raised her hand.
Everyone's eyes converged, and Luo Yi asked, "What's wrong?"
Mira said in confusion: "I think this should be a good thing. The great pirate Gis has been captured. Shouldn't we be happy?"
Luo Yi smiled, pointed around, and said, "Everyone outside is very happy, celebrating the capture of such a murderous pirate.
Those who have grudges can take revenge, and those who don’t can just watch the fun.
Ordinary people can only see this far, but I believe that wealthy merchants and nobles can see the danger."
"Please give me some advice, Master!"
"It's very simple. The Grace Day robbery was clearly an inside job, with some people in Auckland involved.
If Giss is dead, it wouldn't be a big deal, but if Giss is still alive and returns to Auckland, and implicates the people behind him..."
"Do you think those people will become desperate and do something desperate?"
"Will there be a major incident before the arrival of the ironclad ship Emden?"
"In my opinion, there are only two options. One is to turn around and run away from here.
However, that person is probably reluctant to give up. After all, they have been rooted here for generations, and the sunk costs are too high, so it is impossible for them to give up. "
"Then there's only the second option, to find a way to handle everything before the Emden arrives.
By then, if no one investigates further, Gis's testimony will be meaningless, and everyone will just regard him as a liar who is making random accusations!"
Lilia asked, "Do you think his chances of success are high?"
Luo Yi slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know either. The contradictions between the old aristocracy and the royalists are almost exposed. Generally speaking, the royalists have the upper hand.
It's simple. The Hohenzollerns are orthodox, and their magical weapons are powerful enough, and their new legions are strong enough."
"However, you can't deny the strength of the old nobles. Who knows what kind of monsters are hiding beneath the water?"
"Moreover, the old nobility is not just this baron, but a huge alliance!"
But after a pause, he continued, "However, I think the royalists have a better chance of winning, because the person in the Executive Office even sent someone to remind me, which clearly predicted this!"
Maruna spoke up at this time and asked, "Master Luo Yi, I'm still a little confused. Even if they want to turn against us, will we definitely be in danger?"
"As the saying goes, when the city gate is on fire, the fish in the pond will suffer!"
Luo Yi took a deep breath and said, "What's more, we have obtained such a huge fortune, it is really too eye-catching.
Before, I used my complex network of relationships to suppress the greed of some people.
But this time, this time, without order, no one cares about relationships anymore. Who knows how many people will come for us! "
He looked around again and said, "I don't like the way Dorji does things. He may be a royalist, but he's too selfish."
"He could have easily avoided this unrest, but for the sake of greater results, he watched the chaos unfold."
"He may have considered a lot, but he didn't consider how many people would die this time."
"He really doesn't care!"
Oliveira finally asked, "What are you going to do?"
Luo Yi vented all the anger in his heart: "What else can we do? We can only fight against the enemy with our own army and block the water with earth."
…
at the same time,
Outside the city, in the Marquis family castle, in the study.
The originally proud Baron Marquis was now furious. He was roaring with a hoarse voice.
"Mobilize! Mobilize all the forces of the Priory in the north!"
"Dorji forced me to do this, so I'll give him a good beating!"
"You said this is a trap?
Nonsense, of course I know this is a trap, but as long as you are strong enough, you can break it!"
"Dorji, Dorji, you want to see me desperately trying to make a move? I'll show you what it means to fight to the death!"
