In the evening, the number of applicants increased again. What made Guru speechless was that the number reached 171, and six faculty members also signed up. What a pity that he could not refuse them because there was no special statement on the poster that only students could go.

"Can we bring our families?" two faculty members even asked.

After hesitating for a moment, Guru replied with an embarrassed look on his face: "I really don't know about this. It's an open invitation from Wulelindo. I'll go ask and then get back to you."

After returning to the dormitory, Guru told Wu Lai, who was exercising, about this.

"Let them go together." Wu Lai nodded decisively.

"We haven't found a car yet. Adding people will increase expenses, and the plan we made previously will have to be changed." Guru said.

"I'll take care of the car, and you can just plan to make another one. You're fast anyway." Wu Lai said as he began to stretch his legs. "Also, hurry up and buy the land we're going to. You'll be faster than Foss in buying it. After we agree on the price, you, me, and Wright will each contribute."

"Why? That place is more than five miles away from the city. Even if you park the car by the horse trail, you still have to walk half a mile. It's just a large lawn with a mountain on the left and a stream on the right. It's deserted. What can you do if you buy it?" Guru shook his head.

"I've already written you a note of leave. You have to go even if you don't want to." Wu Lai rolled his eyes at Guru. "Look at how stingy you are. It's just asking you to pay some money. By the way, I have written two letters. Remember to take them out tomorrow morning. One for Fox and one for Wright."

“Why don’t you go yourself?” the guru asked again.

"I have something to do. I have to go out for a few days." Wu Lai replied with a smile, "Don't look at me like that. I am going to take Helen to Menice these days."

Guru frowned, then sighed softly, but Wu Lai still caught it.

"Gulu, I know Loli is a good person, but..." Wu Lai didn't know what to say next. How could he not know Loli's feelings for him? He was also aware of the benefits of marrying into the Kochi family. Even if we put all that aside, Loli herself was very good. She was a beautiful and lovely girl no matter how you looked at her. But Wu Lai's heart was on Helen at the moment.

"Let's not talk about this." Guru smiled slightly, "I'll go make a plan."

"Okay." Wu Lai breathed a sigh of relief. "Add fifty more people, and leave some room for manpower."

"Okay." Guru nodded.

At the same time, Eddie's dormitory was quite lively. Not only were Quick, Boti, Guku and others there, but more than a dozen followers that Eddie had gathered at the Citizen Academy also came.

"That guy has been very popular recently, and he made such a fuss today. It's obvious that he wants to win people's hearts." Eddie frowned and said, "It seems that he has a good foundation, but I have also found out that Lev is a favor to Guru, and he just dealt with Light. Now, he wants to take advantage of the momentum to get promoted, and we can't let him succeed."

"Yeah, he doesn't get along with us." Quick nodded.

"Yes, I just can't stand his arrogance." Boti said.

"Let's see what happens. In the Assyrian territory, there are always people who want to rise to the top every day. Only a few can succeed in the end. For a nouveau riche like him, instead of working hard, he wants to rise to the top overnight. That's not going to happen easily." Eddie smiled coldly. "He likes to be in the limelight. This time, we will give him the limelight. Let's not talk about anything else, let alone the food and drink for the two hundred people. Just the arrangement of the car will be enough for him to bear."

"Yes, theoretically, it would take about a hundred cars. Not to mention him, even the top three families in Assyria didn't have so many cars. I think he has only one way, to borrow it." Boti said.

"Where can we borrow a hundred cars? Even God Amon can't give us the money." After Quick said this in a strange tone, everyone burst into laughter.

"Just this one thing is enough to make him lose face. When you go back tonight, ask who else has not signed up, and give him the extra money." Eddie ordered.

Everyone nodded. This was not a difficult matter. They could just ask casually. If there was anyone, they would urge everyone to go together and say that they wanted to have some fun.

"Boti, you guys have to keep an eye on him from tomorrow, both inside and outside. Wuleglindo has only one way to go, which is to borrow a car. If we can stop him, we have to stop him at all costs. He wants to get together, and it won't work if we try to stop him one or two at a time. We need to send more people and keep an eye on a larger area." After Eddie finished speaking, Quick and the others nodded seriously. They were used to sabotaging others.

On the side, Gu Ku said hesitantly: "Wuliglindo wouldn't have to buy it, right? There are more than 20 carriage workshops in Assyria. If we work together, it won't be difficult to collect 100 carriages."

"Buy? How is that possible?" Eddie laughed. "He can afford to buy a hundred cars just for a trip, but where will he put them after he buys them?"

"It seems that there is no need to put it away. After using it, you can resell it. At most you will make a small loss. With Wuleglindo's financial resources, I'm afraid he won't care about such a small amount of money." Gu Ku said.

Eddie frowned immediately and his expression became serious. What Gu Ku said made sense. If Wu Lai really wanted to do this, it would not be a bad idea.

After a short pause, Eddie looked at Quick and said, "Tell these things to Khufu and remind him that if he wants to embarrass Wu Lai, he must make it difficult for him to gather all the carriages and horses. He will figure it out himself."

Quick's eyes lit up and he nodded.

"Everyone, please be careful. If there is any situation in Woleglindo, please tell me immediately." Eddie reminded.

…

The next evening, Eddie frowned again because Boti said that Woolley and Helen had gone missing after taking leave, and Guru also took leave and went to Woolley's mansion and Wright's tavern, but didn't delay much and came back in the afternoon.

Guru's whereabouts were easy to guess, but where would Wu Lai and Helen go? Not being able to grasp Wu Lai's movements was the most difficult, because you didn't know what he would do.

Therefore, Eddie had a headache, but fortunately, there was some good news from Quick - as soon as Khufu heard about it, he went to those carriage workshops quickly, and Quick accompanied him. Then, Khufu generously gave orders for three carriages to each of the more than 20 carriage workshops. In this way, the work of these carriage workshops was fully booked in the next few days. Even for the carriages that had been ordered by other companies before, Khufu coaxed and threatened them to postpone the delivery.

"Woole should be planning to buy a car. I just went to the coach workshop with Khufu for a while, and his butler named Fox came with a few people." Quick said.

"And then?" Eddie asked.

"Then they were chased away by Khufu. Fortunately they ran fast, otherwise, with Khufu's temper, I'm afraid some of them would be injured." Quick said with a smile.

Eddie nodded: "Fortunately, Gu Ku reminded me yesterday, otherwise, Wu Lai would have done it."

For several days in a row, Addie did not get any valuable information. As time approached, she became more and more determined: "Humph, now, let's see what you can do!"

The day before the holiday, Wu Lai and Helen returned to the college. Not long after they returned, Wu Lai hurriedly asked for leave again.

That night, Boti told Eddie that Wu Lai looked very unhappy when he went out, and even uglier when he came back.

After hearing this, Eddie smiled.

The next day, before dawn, Eddie got up early, washed, dressed, and tidied himself up. He waited patiently until dawn, then happily walked out of the dormitory and headed towards the horse farm, because Guru had said during registration that the horse farm was the gathering point.

When Eddie arrived at the horse farm, dozens of people had already gathered there, chatting in groups of three or five. In addition to students, there were also faculty members with their families, so it was quite lively.

After Eddie greeted a few acquaintances, more and more people came to the horse farm. At first, Eddie was interested in talking to others, but after listening, he found that they were all talking about Wu Lai, so he simply walked aside and waited.

After a while, Quick came running over, sweating profusely.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"How is it?" Eddie suddenly became a little nervous.

"Nothing happened." Quick shook his head. "The servant waiting at the door said that no carriages were seen arriving. No carriages were seen gathering in Assyria last night or this morning. However, Wu Lai's butler has purchased a lot of things in the past two days and is loading them into the carriage now."

"Where are Wright and Lev?" Eddie asked, feeling slightly relieved.

"There's no movement. Lev went out the day before yesterday, and Wright got drunk in the bar last night. He should still be sleeping now." After Quick finished answering, he saw Boti and Guku walking over quickly, so he greeted them with a smile.

"Where's Woolleglindo?" Eddie asked Boti.

"Just went to Vice President Lini's office." Boti replied, "Guru went with him."

"What's the point of going there, huh." Eddie was completely relieved.

At the same time, Rini shook his head and said to Woolley: "You are making things difficult for me."

"Teacher, please just help me, please." Wu Lai forced out a bitter face...

There were more and more people on the racecourse, chattering and it was quite lively. Looking around, only Eddie and his group were quiet. Almost all of them were like Eddie, waiting in silence with their arms folded.

After a while, the gate of the Civic Academy slowly opened. Although the horse farm was not close to the gate, anyone with good eyesight could see it clearly.

After a crisp whip sounded suddenly, a loud horn sounded into the sky...

Addie was stunned. No, not only her, but everyone on the racecourse was stunned. This was the sound of a military bugle call...

The racecourse, which had already gathered more than 200 people, suddenly became silent...

The sound of horse hooves could be heard from afar. A carriage drove into the academy, followed by the second, third, and fourth carriages...

Addie was stunned. Quick, Boti and Guku were not much better than her.

After his expression changed, Eddie frowned and looked at Quick: "Didn't you say..."

"Everything I said is true." Quick quickly clarified.

"Look, these carriages belong to the Fourth Legion!" Gu Ku pointed at the emblem on the side of the carriage and said loudly.

"The Fourth Legion?" Eddie's face suddenly became uglier.

"So, Wulaglindo has a background in the army." When the surrounding discussions reached Addie's ears, she suddenly felt that this voice was particularly harsh...

"Woole Green is coming." Gu Ku reminded Eddie.

"I saw it a long time ago." Eddie was so angry that his teeth were itching. The cars in front of him were coming one after another. Looking at Wu Lai's leisurely and calm appearance, there was no way there could be any problem with the cars.

"I really can't stand his smug look, and I really want to beat him up." Quick said gritting his teeth. It's not that he hated Wu Lai that much, but it seemed that what Eddie asked him to do seemed to have been messed up. At the moment, Eddie's face was gloomy and ugly. If he didn't express his opinion, Eddie might get even more annoyed.

"You are no match for him." Eddie said with hatred, and waved his hand, "Let's go, get in the car. I want to see what tricks Wu Lai can come up with."

As he was talking, two rows of ceremonial guards suddenly walked in from the entrance of the academy. They were in bright uniforms and armor, and one of them was holding a flag of the Fourth Legion...

Gu Ku was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Could it be that the commander of the Fourth Legion has arrived..."
