Back in Lecter's shop, Lecter couldn't take it anymore and was almost dragged to the emergency room. Fortunately, this was an alchemist's shop, so there were plenty of potions. After downing two HP potions, Lecter sat on the side and slowly recovered his HP.
"Are you sure it's okay?" Anthony asked from the side. After all, no matter how they looked at it, it was Li Huailin who had beaten him into submission. They didn't know how grateful Lecter was to Li Huailin.
"Of course." Li Huailin immediately said, "With me, there's nothing that can't be solved. I say … what's your name again? Are you done resting?"
"Yes, benefactor!" Lecter immediately stood up. "I'm ready."
"Hmm … I owe you a lot. Now it's time for you to repay me. Do you understand the mission?" Li Huailin asked.
"Of course, but … those people don't seem to be good people. If we go with just a few of us, will there be any problems?" Lecter reminded them out of good intentions. "Why don't we inform the guards in the city first …"
"The city guards must have been bribed." Li Huailin immediately said, "This is a neutral city, so it's basically a dirty area. Besides, didn't he say that these people are rich? It's easy to bribe them."
"Indeed, if we were in human territory, we could still find reinforcements. That way, it would be safer. But here, it seems like we can only rely on ourselves," Anthony said. Of course, it wasn't that he didn't have confidence in his own strength. It was just that if they surrounded them, they wouldn't be able to escape. Now that there were only four of them, even if Ed and Ravenna were considered to be fighting, if the other side had a hundred people running in a hundred directions, how could they chase after them?
"Forget it, we aren't going to capture them all anyway," Li Huailin said, "First, we need to save them, then find their boss and capture him."
"That's true." Anthony nodded, then looked at Ed and Ravenna. "There might be a fight later, you two try to stand next to me."
"Kid, you're still worried about me?" Ravenna's strength wasn't that great, but Old Ed was a little angry when he heard Anthony's words. "Let me tell you, if I hadn't been studying alchemy, I might have already become a Warlock Saint."
"So awesome? What's his current strength? "Li Huailin asked, a little surprised.
"Uh … It's been a long time since I've fought. I'm about … half as strong as a Warlock Saint." Old Ed sounded very uncertain and Li Huailin could tell that he was bragging.
"Anyway, let's find the people over there first," Li Huailin said. "Where are they?"
"Well, I don't know much about their headquarters, but I know where the person who contacted me lives," Lecter replied immediately. "I can take you to him."
"Yes." Li Huailin nodded, then said, "The person who came here to contact them shouldn't be their boss, but an ordinary cadre. The people of the Ganga Tribe were just captured the day before yesterday. Because they were illegal slave hunters, they definitely wouldn't use the teleportation array to enter the city. So, according to the distance between the two places, they shouldn't have been transported to the city yet. But it doesn't matter. We can directly catch this person and ask for the location of their base. "
"Yes." The three of them nodded.
Lecter had also recovered a lot, so he brought his men to the hotel where the Yaffle slave hunters were staying. Just as Li Huailin said, the Yaffle slave hunters didn't have a base here. They didn't sell their goods here, so they just stayed in the hotel. The location was a hotel in the south of Kairam City. It wasn't very big, probably because there weren't many idle people, so it was suitable as a temporary base.
Ravenna was temporarily left outside. This was because Ravenna's skin color was a bit conspicuous. Those who didn't know her might think that she was tanned. However, the other side knew her, so it might be exposed. Moreover, her strength was too weak. Although she was the most anxious one, she could only stay outside for now.
Lecter took the lead, and the others followed behind him. As soon as they entered the hotel, two big men came up and stopped them.
"This hotel has been booked by us. You can go somewhere else." The two men's words were polite, but their faces didn't look too good.
Obviously, they were the Yaffle slave hunters. It seemed that they had booked the entire hotel, and there were probably a lot of people inside. Li Huailin also looked inside and found that there were more than ten enemies with swords. All of them were guarding the hotel, and they seemed to be very good at fighting. They should be the guards. It seemed that the leader inside had a powerful background. Of course, this was a good thing. The more powerful the better.
Although they knew that this was the enemy's lair, they didn't start fighting immediately. This was because the boss of the place they wanted to capture might not be at home. It would be troublesome if he went out. Of course, when Li Huailin made the plan, he took this into consideration. So first, he asked Lecter to bring them to the boss.
"I am Lecter. I have something to discuss with Master Aike. I wonder if Master Aike is here?" Lecter immediately replied.
"Lecter? Who is it? " The two guards frowned. Just as they were about to chase him away, another person walked over and whispered something to the two guards. The guards listened and nodded. "I see. You are the owner of Lecter's Alchemy Shop. Why are you looking for Master Aike?"
"Of course, it's about the auction tonight," Lecter replied cleverly.
"Oh, I see." The guard nodded and didn't suspect anything. However, when he saw Li Huailin and the others behind him, he frowned slightly. "Then, these people are …"
"These are my staff. They are in charge of the auction tonight. It will be faster to bring them here." After all, Lecter was also a shop owner. Naturally, he wasn't stupid. His answer was very reasonable.
"Okay, I will go up and inform him." The guard nodded, but he didn't agree immediately. He was ready to go up and report first.
"Of course, of course," Lecter said immediately.
"How is it? It seems that this person called Aike is upstairs. Should we make a move now? " On Anthony's side, he was already a bit eager to give it a try. Because he was originally a general, he hadn't fought for several months after becoming the Emperor. Now, he was really itching for a fight. Looking at the people around him, although they looked a bit strong, in Anthony's eyes, they were just slightly stronger ordinary people.
With Anthony's strength, he could already see that among the dozen people present, only two were considered a little strong. The others were just ordinary soldiers. The two people with a little bit of strength didn't pose a threat to Anthony at all. Anthony calculated a little and felt that he could deal with more than a dozen people here within a minute.
"Wait a little, in case the movement below causes the people above to run away." Li Huailin said. "It's better to meet them. After all, we have to catch them. If they run away, things will be troublesome."
"Okay." Anthony nodded. He felt that Li Huailin was more cautious.
After waiting for a while, the guard came back and said, "Shopkeeper Lecter, Sir Aike wants to see you."
It seemed to be going very smoothly. They followed the guard upstairs. During this time, they didn't see other people besides their subordinates, such as the owner of the hotel or the waiters. When they went up to the second floor, they found that there were more than a dozen people here. There were also many people standing upstairs. It seemed that this person called Aike was really important. There were more than 20 people protecting him.
They followed the guard to the innermost room on the second floor. The guard was very particular and knocked on the door. Soon, a young man's voice answered, "Come in."
Opening the door, Li Huailin looked inside. There were two people in the room. One was a young human man who looked like he was in his twenties. He was really young, and he looked … quite handsome. He had short blond hair and an almost perfect body. He was sitting on the main seat. Li Huailin also saw the other party's name. It was Tigara Thekal.
The other was a burly man in his forties. From his appearance, one could tell that he was a very powerful character. There was a scar on his face that looked like a knife wound. He looked very fierce. Moreover, he was standing behind the man called Tigara. From his position, he was probably a bodyguard or something like that.
The interesting thing here was that neither of the two people in the room was called Aike. The young man was called Tigara, and the bodyguard behind him was called Lopez. Li Huailin instantly understood that the other party was using a fake name. This group of people was really careful. It seemed that they were ready to disappear directly after selling their things, leaving no traces at all.
"Master Aike, we meet again." Lecter walked directly towards the young man sitting there. This was obviously a message to Li Huailin and the others. The person they were looking for was him, and he was the real deal.
"Lecter, the shop owner." Tigara (also known as Aike) also stood up with a smile. However, just as he was about to go up to greet them, the bodyguard behind him, called Lopez, suddenly reached out and stopped him.
"Something doesn't seem right." Lopez looked at Li Huailin and the others and said a little cautiously. His eyes were especially fixed on Anthony. He felt that this guy was very powerful, but he couldn't tell how strong he was.
"Something doesn't seem right?" Tigara looked at Lopez, then looked at Li Huailin and the others, and stopped.
"Looks like we've been exposed. Get ready to take action," Li Huailin immediately said after hearing the conversation between the two.
