Chapter 507: Secret Talks in the Middle of the Right

On the way to dinner, it was said that the competition would last for a day, but in reality, it was faster than expected. There was no other way. Those who were truly powerful, or those who had the magic conductor, were not enough to be their match.

Even if they had all kinds of thoughts, under absolute strength, they would only be cannon fodder. To be honest, no one would pity those who were “accidentally” killed.

In the northern border, human lives were the least valuable. In this place, the strong preyed on the weak. The reason why the three great families were able to rule the northern border was because of their powerful military power and influence.

Lei Luo naturally didn’t feel anything. He had used the Hand of God to kill almost a hundred thousand of Karman’s soldiers. There was no other way. If they didn’t manage to attack them first, Lei Luo’s group would suffer. Lei Luo wasn’t that saintly.

Beside him, Masanori Sakamoto was pulling on Linghua’s hand and chattering non-stop. From time to time, he would even ask Lei Luo and Miyamoto Musashi to stop and wait for them to buy something.

After a simple meal with them, he brought Masanori Sakamoto along on the way to the blacksmith shop. Lei Luo was silent, mainly because he did not know what to say. He could not ask her to tell him the secrets of the Sakamoto family.

“What do you think of the northern border now?”

Masanori Sakamoto spoke first.

“I think it’s pretty good. It’s quite simple,” Lei Luo said perfunctorily.

“You’re lying. Don’t tell me you don’t know the current situation in the empire?”

“Of course I know.”

Lei Luo turned around and looked at Masanori Sakamoto. She pouted and looked at Lei Luo.

“Then let me tell you something. The general has already stockpiled dozens of Level-8 magic missiles. There’s even a Level-7 magician in the general’s residence.”

Before Masanori Sakamoto opened her mouth to speak, Lei Luo had already blocked the people around him. This witch did not seem to have any self-awareness, and since she dared to talk about such confidential matters on the streets, it could only make things harder for Lei Luo.

“So? What does this have to do with me?”

Lei Luo only calmly told her everything. He was just a passerby on this land, and after he left, he was in charge of the flood.

Masanori Sakamoto pursed her lips. She knew that this matter had nothing to do with Lei Luo, but she still did not want this land to disappear.

“The northern border has long been infiltrated by the various feudal lords. This martial arts conference is just the beginning.”

Ignoring the sentimental woman behind him, Lei Luo turned around and spoke as he walked. Since Ulysses had someone to support him here, how could the other feudal lords not have one?

He did not know if the three aristocratic families were under the control of a single dukedom, or if they were running their own affairs. Also, did the general really not know anything about the situation in the northern border? How was that possible? Perhaps he had already started to plan.

He did not want to interfere, but it did not mean that the Sakamoto family, especially the troublesome woman behind him, thought that way.

“What you think is your business. I just want to go to the node. I have no interest in the situation in the northern border or the Sakamoto family.”

After removing the [ shield ] spell, Masanori Sakamoto did not say anything. She just followed behind him with her head lowered and her eyes red, like an embarrassed little wife.

Soon, they walked into the blacksmith’s shop. The Ge Tengzhai was tempering a sword by the fire. Lei Luo and the others found a seat and sat down to wait for the old blacksmith.

It seemed that the Takeda family did not find anything the previous day.

After he was done, he saw Lei Luo bringing a woman over. He asked in confusion, “Mr. James, who is this?”

Lei Luo glanced at Masanori Sakamoto and said, “She has the tomes of arcane with her.”

The old man seemed to be relieved.

“All right, let this young lady go with me.”

“All right.”

He didn’t say much. This was the condition she had offered at that time. If she wanted to go back on her word and let Lei Luo join the chaos in the northern border, Lei Luo would definitely stop her. At most, he would take the tomes of arcane and throw her back to Sakuraku’s house.

She probably wouldn’t say anything either. If she lost the tomes of arcane, it would be snatched by James. What did it have to do with him anyway?

Watching Mashiro Sakurazaka and Kefujisai walk upstairs, Lei Luo made a mental note and cast a [ surveillance ] spell on Mashiro Sakurazaka.

“Miss, take out the tomes of arcane.”

“Okay.”

“Miss, you are...!”

“Shh, don’t say anything. Just melt the tomes of arcane into it.”

“What about you?”

“It’s just as you think.”

Lei Luo frowned as he listened. The two of them were obviously hiding something from him, but he couldn’t directly ask Ge Tengzhai. If he did, the two of them would lose all credibility.

After waiting for a while, Masanori Sakamoto came down alone. He didn’t say anything, but he looked a little weak. Lei Luo thought that it was a side effect of taking out the tomes of arcane.

He brought Masanori Sakamoto back to the restaurant to rest. While sitting in his room, Lei Luo was still reading the ancient Magic Empire’s magic book.

An irregular sound came from outside. Lei Luo got up and walked to the window to activate the [ shield ] spell.

“Sir James is really amazing. I heard that the Takeda family and the Nakajima family have already decided to recruit you.”

Fu Yun’s voice rang in his ears. This was the secret signal that Lei Luo had promised to make with her, along with the special magic signal that she had given him. Without a special decryption method, it would be impossible to decipher the content of their conversation.

“Stop talking nonsense. If you have something to say, say it quickly.”

Lei Luo was unnaturally angered by Masanori Sakamoto’s attitude, and his words were no longer as natural as before. He only wanted to go to the node, but he could not help but help Ulysses open up the situation in the northern border.

Actually, Lei Luo was already in the situation in the northern border. He only wanted to go to the node as soon as possible to pick herbs to save Allie, so he did not have the intention to care too much.

“All right, the next piece of news is something that we had to go through a lot of trouble to find out. Do you understand?”

“Speak quickly.”

“The general’s backer is Papafilin. The Takeda family might have connections with the gate of the Devil World. The others have more or less joined the dukes. Our assassination of the general is only to open up the situation in the northern border.”

“I hope you can help us investigate clearly. In addition, their views are different, which is why there is such a big difference. The general’s opinion is to establish a peaceful relationship with Papafilin, while the Takeda family is a firm advocate of war. They want to fight their way out of the northern border and establish their own colony. The people at the gate of the Devil World also think so, so you should be careful when dealing with the two.”

“What about you guys?”

The voice on the other end was silent for a moment before saying, “We only hope that the northern border can survive the war in the empire.”

After chatting for a while, Lei Luo ended the call with Fu Yun. The other aristocratic families were still participating in the subsequent chaos in the empire. It was very normal. It was impossible for Lei Luo to be the only one who had expected such a big thing, or it could be said that these powers had been preparing for a long time.

He was still too young. If it had happened ten years earlier, Lei Luo could easily have conquered everyone in this era. It was not impossible for him to establish his own country, but the time given to him was too little.
