Chapter 426: The Massacred
Lei Luo continued to remain silent. Kronin had given him enough shock, enough to make him humble and cautious.
Therefore, until now, he still did not say a word. He just listened to Kronin’s words with a calm head.
After a while, when he was sure that Kronin had no intention of continuing to say anything for the time being, he raised his head again.
He looked at Kronin very seriously and asked, “I thought that I had enough evaluation and respect for you, but this level of evaluation and respect is completely unworthy of your wisdom. Therefore, first of all, I would like to sincerely apologize to you for the rudeness and arrogance in my heart.”
“There’s no need. This is not a problem for you alone, but a problem for many. Just like how a tiger will always look down on a wild wolf, it’s not a crime for a native to look down on a magic conductor. The reason why I said so much to you just now is because I have a special understanding of you. I think that there might be a real in-depth communication between us.”
Kronin’s words made Lei Luo’s eyes light up. “So, there’s still a possibility of cooperation between us?”
“Of course. Otherwise, why would I tell you this?” Kronin asked with a smile.
Lei Luo smiled in relief. He thought for a while and then asked tentatively, “I don’t know why, but I suddenly have a feeling that you seem to have been waiting for me to cooperate with you…”
“If you don’t appear within ten days, then we will very likely send people to contact you.”
Kronin’s words once again surprised Lei Luo. He was stunned for a long time before he asked,
“But…why?”
“Then why are you confident that you can convince me?” Kronin asked back.
“Because I have some bad news for the magic conductors. I think that after you see this news, you will cooperate with me,” Lei Luo said.
“Some regions of the empire have already started a large-scale purge of the magisters, resulting in a riot. Is this it?”
Lei Luo was no longer shocked, because he was so shocked that he was somewhat numb.
“How did old Mister Bai… ?”
Kronin smiled faintly.
“To be able to obtain such confidential information, it can be seen that Sir Lei Luo and Prince Ulysses should have formed a reliable alliance. Congratulations, sir.”.
“However, not only the massacres, but also those who were massacred know of this news.”
“Are you saying that it’s the news from the magister in the riot zone?”
“In order to consolidate its rule, the senate deliberately tore apart the connections between the provinces, the alliances, and the lords. Thus, in this advanced magic era, the senate still has a way to block the relevant information. However, as the victims of the massacre, we don’t have such a torn relationship. A long time ago, we gradually established a connection, and in recent years, this connection between us has covered the entire empire.”
“Has a complete system been formed between the magic conductors?”
When Lei Luo put the teacup on the table, his right hand trembled slightly.
“We have only established a perfect connection, but we have not formed a perfect system. Because like the natives, the magic conductor is also a human, and our interests are not completely unified. However, at the very least, we can communicate with each other.”
Hearing this, Lei Luo gently exhaled and said with a self-deprecating laugh, “Smart people always like to think of themselves as chess players and others as chess pieces. But why haven’t I thought about it? Why don’t others think of themselves as chess players? When I’m thinking about how to use others as chess pieces, why don’t others think about how to use me as a chess piece?”
“With your pride, it’s already rare for you to say this.”
“When did you start paying attention to me?”
“After you outsmarted and acquired the Holy City of Beauty.”
“I only occupied a small city, and the lords of the third province are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Why did you pay attention to me?”
“Although there are many stars in the sky, they can’t hide the brilliance of the giant stars.”.
“Your show in the city not only shocked us, it also caused a small commotion in the third province. You’re probably too busy and haven’t had time to pay attention to it. Many organizations have already listed you in the highest-level database and are starting to conduct in-depth research on you. You even have the nickname of Military Advisor Ghost Shadow.”
“Is this move worth the time you spent waiting for me?”
“Of course not. What makes us the most excited is your rebellion against the senate and the current system. We know that you don’t like to use regular military officers. You even used the pirate corps. You have a strong insufferable temperament, and for people like us, we like anyone who is insufferable. For us, if possible, we hope that as many native people like you can take over the power. This is good for us.”
“I understand. If that’s the case, then everything will be as it should be. There are no obstacles in our deal. We just need to discuss some details.
“Since that’s the case, then before that, I want to ask you a personal question.”
“Please.”
“What kind of person do you think I am?”
Kronin hesitated for a moment and said, “From a certain point of view, you are more mature than most people, but from a certain point of view, you are still a child.”
Lei Luo blinked and asked again, “If I am still a child, then how can I grow up?”
“Only through the baptism of blood can you become a real man.”
“Haven’t I experienced enough blood in the Holy City of Beauty?”
“The real blood is the blood that will make your heart ache when it flows.”
Lei Luo’s eyes widened as he asked, “Whose blood is that?”
“This is a question that only you can answer.”
Kronin paused for a moment before continuing, “This is a question that every person who wants to become a powerhouse must know the answer to.”
When the topic of fresh blood ended, Kronin changed the topic.
He started to discuss the details of the cooperation with Lei Luo, as well as the terms of the deal between the two parties.
Compared to the beginning of the empire, the military’s logistical support was mainly handled by civilians. However, the military was increasingly unwilling to hire civilians to handle their logistical support.
This was because modern humans had already abandoned the hard work, frugality, and adventurous spirit of the beginning of the empire. The weakness of the human nature of being lazy once again enveloped the entire human race.
