Zhao Lu?
Why would that old woman contact him of her own accord?
Although this division was in Baiyue City, Shirō Makino had never thought of contacting Zhao Lu at a time like this.
At a time like this, who knew how many pairs of eyes were watching them. If they let the cat out of the bag, it would affect the entire situation in the future.
After subduing Zhao Lu, Shirō Makino had no intention of using her in the short term.
After the call was connected, Zhao Lu's cautious voice sounded, "Gongzi, it's me."
"Hm, why are you calling at a time like this?" Shirō Makino asked directly.
"Someone from above found me and gave me a large sum of money to deal with you secretly," Zhao Lu said.
"Whose idea?" Shirō Makino raised an eyebrow.
"It's not that person's idea. That person found me privately. His name is Zhao Qiang, and he's from Baihua City. I had people investigate him, but they couldn't find anything. His identity is very clean. But according to my guess, he should be related to Wang Er Mazi, who was in charge of Baihua City. Otherwise, without that person's permission, he has no reason to target you, Gongzi. "Zhao Lu was also very direct, without hiding anything.
Zhao Qiang?
Thinking of that Teacher Zhu from a few days ago, Shirō Makino frowned.
This person who was subdued by Grandpa Ma and sent out was not bad … He even managed to get in touch with Zhao Lu.
Didn't that mean that Zhao Qiang already knew about that mysterious organization?
Then why didn't Grandpa Ma know? Did he not know, or did he pretend not to know?
But that wasn't important, because those two Grandpa Ma were long dead.
On the other hand, this "affectionate and loyal" Zhao Qiang was a little disgusting to Shirō Makino.
"What's his status beside that person? Is he higher than you? "Shirō Makino asked.
Zhao Lu laughed, somewhat disdainfully, "Who does he think he is? How can he compare to me? At most, he's a small follower of an important person, a member of the secretarial team. But, in front of the prime minister's door is an eighth-rank official. And this kind of person, although he doesn't have much status now, in the future … he definitely won't be bad. So under normal circumstances, ordinary people wouldn't be willing to offend him. "
"He told you to kill me?" Shirō Makino asked.
"Yeah." Zhao Lu's answer was very straightforward.
Shirō Makino said, "Isn't this guy a bit of an idiot? This is the Flying Immortal Planet's High School League Tournament. If a participating high school student gets into trouble here, isn't he afraid of drawing fire to his back? "
"Hehe, if it was an ordinary high school student, how could he have so much power? Could it be that Young Master thinks that everyone is like you? "Zhao Lu laughed lightly." That's why I said that he really doesn't understand Young Master. "
Nice boot-licking. Are you trying to express your loyalty to me?
Shirō Makino thought to himself and teased, "You're from the same family."
"Bah! He's not worthy! "Zhao Lu sneered.
Then, he said, "I'm informing Young Master in hopes that you'll be prepared, because I'm not the only one he's looking for. He doesn't understand Young Master's true identity, so I'm afraid he won't be able to control his strength. "
Bai Muye understood the meaning behind Zhao Lu's words. Without knowing his true identity, it was very likely that Zhao Qiang would go all out to kill him. Furthermore, he would be unbridled.
"Is there a chance to trick this person here?" Shirō Makino asked.
"Young Master wants to kill him?" Zhao Lu asked.
"I'm very annoyed with these trivial matters. It's affecting my studies," Shirō Makino said.
"Then let me do it," Zhao Lu said. "I'm on his side, so I have some ability."
"Won't it be easier to expose yourself?" Shirō Makino asked.
"Young Master's enemy naturally can't be left alive," Zhao Lu said.
Shirō Makino was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, Zhao Lu was forcefully subdued by him. It was unlikely that she would be completely loyal to him so quickly.
Even if he had a lot of things in his hands that could kill her, she shouldn't be so proactive.
Unless …
Shirō Makino asked, "Do you have something to ask of me?"
Zhao Lu cried out, "Young Master, what are you talking about? I'm already Young Master's woman … "
"Tsk, can you not make it sound so ambiguous?" Shirō Makino rolled his eyes. "If you have something to say, say it. Don't beat around the bush."
"Alright, I do have something that I want to ask of Young Master. It's actually a good thing," Zhao Lu said.
She knew that nothing good would come out of being unaccountably solicitous.
"Tell me about it," Shirō Makino muttered. "I can't promise anything."
"It's like this. After a while, it will be that person's birthday. Now everyone is thinking of ways to collect treasures to celebrate that person's birthday. I heard that among the gifts, there are more than ten spiritual pearls … Young Master, can you ask someone to rob that batch of goods? Then, I only want one. "
Hiss!
This woman is really ruthless!
Rob King Qi's birthday gift?
But this sounded pretty good, didn't it?
"Can you get accurate information?" Shirō Makino asked.
Zhao Lu smiled and said, "Young Master, have you forgotten my identity? All the information about the Fairy Realm is in my hands. I am not afraid to tell Young Master the truth. The person who prepared the spiritual pearls for the birthday gift has some grudges with me. If it was someone else, I would really hesitate. But this person … So what if he robbed it! "
Shirō Makino thought to himself, Forget it. Do you think that the evidence I have about you is just for show? You're such a vicious and merciless woman! Why would he care about the bystanders?
Zhao Lu continued, "When the time comes, not only can we make him anxious, we can also get a lot of benefits. But there are not many people on my side that I can trust. If Young Master … "
Is this old woman trying to trick me? Is she still thinking about Uncle Rui?
Shirō Makino rejected her directly. "Don't even think about those two people. Not to mention the fact that they left long ago and are no longer in the Fairy Realm. Even if they are in the Fairy Realm, I will not let them do this. "
"Oh … Forget it then. I will find a way to get rid of that person …" Zhao Lu could not hide her disappointment.
"Are you sure you can get rid of that person?" Shirō Makino asked.
"This should not be a problem." Zhao Lu's tone became uncertain. "If it is purely based on strength, it should not be a problem."
"How can there be so many simple things? You must give me a guarantee that this matter will not implicate you, "Shirō Makino said.
It was not that he cared about Zhao Lu. It was just that exchanging her for Zhao Qiang was a huge loss!
"This kind of thing … I can't guarantee it? I can only say that I will try my best! "Zhao Lu said." After all, it is not so easy to kill someone in that place. "
The capital planet!
Zhao Mengning's assassination was an accident after all.
Under normal circumstances, not many people would dare to behave atrociously in a place like Ziyun.
"Then don't kill him first. Think of a way to ruin his reputation and make him unable to stay by that person's side. Is that difficult?" Shirō Makino said with a frown.
"That is much easier!" Zhao Lu's tone became relaxed.
The difficulty of ruining someone's reputation and killing someone's reputation were not on the same level.
"Then it is decided. Ruin him as soon as possible! This bastard does not know when to stop. Now that we are far away, I don't have the time to deal with him, "Shirō Makino said.
"Alright, leave it to me," Zhao Lu said.
"Oh yes, about that person's birthday present, send me the information," Shirō Makino said.
"Gongzi agreed?" Zhao Lu asked in surprise.
"Let me take a look and do some research first. I am interested in anything that can cause trouble for that person," Shirō Makino said.
Then, the communication device was hung up.
Shirō Makino said in a low voice, "Big Beauty, help me find out about that person's birthday. See if it is true?"
Towards this old woman, he had to be careful.
She was alone here, completely different from Xia Houming's situation where his entire family was in Liming.
Moreover, Zhao Lu knew that King Qi wanted to kill him.
If she knew King Qi's determination to kill Shirō Makino, then she should know that after she killed Shirō Makino, even if King Qi found out, he would not do anything to her!
The merits outweighed the demerits!
She was just super greedy, not a serious betrayal.
Therefore, if there was a chance to completely ruin him, this woman would not let it go.
Relying on a prince and relying on an unknown youth were two completely different concepts.
As for her family being in King Qi's hands … it depended on what she thought.
If she did not betray, then her family being in King Qi's hands was a form of protection!
She would live a very respectable life, and no one would dare to provoke her.
Big Beauty quickly went to investigate.
At this time, Zhao Lu sent a document to his mailbox.
Shirō Makino opened it and saw that the document was very detailed.
It even included Zhao Lu's own!
These gifts were personally found under the supervision of the planet's elders!
This group of people hoped that their gifts would be better than others.
Looking at the list of gifts, Shirō Makino felt a little jealous.
Damn it!
King Qi's life as a king was really comfortable. It was just a birthday celebration, and a mere Flying Immortal Star actually gave out invaluable treasures.
The person that Zhao Lu mentioned who gave over a dozen spiritual pearls was an elder of Five Mountain City, called Du Yu.
This was really shocking!
Over a dozen spiritual pearls in one go.
Even if there were only ten of them, if each one was valued at 50 billion, that would be 500 billion!
Previously, when he threatened Old Xia, he had thought of extorting 100 billion from King Qi.
Now that he thought about it, he was still not knowledgeable enough. To put it bluntly, he was just a child from a poor family who had never seen money.
100 billion … To a rich family like Old Xia from a second rank main city, it would definitely cause them to go bankrupt.
But to a rich family from a first rank main city, it was nothing!
For someone like King Qi, 100 billion was probably not even as valuable as a strand of hair on his leg!
That old bastard King Qi was bent on killing him. Why should he be polite to such a person?
If it was a real calamity, could he just take those spiritual pearls? He had to think of a way to rob them all!
Celebrate your grandma's birthday?
Looking at the time, there were less than two months until King Qi's birthday.
From the Flying Immortal Star to Ziyun Star, it would take at least 20 days to a month on an interstellar spaceship.
In other words, in less than a month, the elders of the Flying Immortal Star would have to send away their boot-licking gifts on the interstellar spaceship.
At that time, the league tournament would not be over yet.
No, he had to think of a way.
At this time, Big Beauty had found out the result: "It's real."
Shirō Makino nodded, looked at the list again, and replied to Zhao Lu: "There are so many things, shouldn't everyone send someone to escort them? By then, there might be dozens of Masters on the ship … Are you trying to trick me? "
Zhao Lu cried out: "How would I dare to trick you? If Young Master makes a decision, I will naturally accompany Young Master! And I have a way to sneak onto that ship, of course … without the help of a Master, we will not succeed. "
"I don't have a grandmaster, so I guess I'll pass …" Bai Muye replied.
Zhao Lu: "Alright then …"
After sending Zhao Lu away, Shirō Makino thought to himself: Even if I have to do this, I must not let Zhao Lu know!
If it really succeeds, I will leave her a spiritual pearl.
But whether or not to give it, when to give it … will depend on her performance.
Towards this woman, Shirō Makino had always been vigilant.
He had also asked Big Beauty to keep an eye on her.
"Big Beauty, help me search for the people on this list. See what kind of spaceship they might use for the interstellar voyage, then find out the exact date of their departure."
This kind of interstellar voyage was not something that one could fly whenever one wanted to. One must first report to the Flying Immortal Star, then apply to Ziyun Star.
Only after everything was settled could one leave the Flying Immortal Star and enter Ziyun Star.
"Alright …" Big Beauty said hesitantly. "This matter is not easy to do."
"I know, let's do some research first," Shirō Makino said.
Shirō Makino then put away the virtual cabin and returned to his room.
If there were no accidents, he would need to stay here for a period of time. If there was a need, he could come over directly.
At night, he went down to have dinner with the others. The dining hall was crowded.
As far as the eye could see, almost all of them were young faces. These people were practically the most outstanding group of people of the same age on the Flying Celestial Planet.
To be able to participate in the competition here was in itself a kind of honor. Coupled with the unique vigor and passion of young people, this group of people exuded a strong sense of confidence.
Hundreds of people in the huge dining hall did not seem crowded.
Shirō Makino and the other four sat at a table for six people. Each of them picked up some food and ate quietly.
"Moussy! I have been looking for you all afternoon. Didn't we agree to have a duel? What's wrong? Don't tell me you're scared? "Suddenly, a mocking voice came from not far away.
Shirō Makino and the others looked up. Hey, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. It was actually the six young people who had come with them in the same car, four men and two women.
Among them, the guy who had arranged a duel with Shan Gu lifted his chin slightly and looked at Shan Gu disdainfully.
The others also looked over.
Shan Gu glanced at that person. "Idiot."
That was a return of that sentence.
"Haha, if you don't have the guts, just say so." That person laughed coldly and then ignored Shan Gu. What a coward!
Shan Gu smiled indifferently and said, "He better not let me meet him. Otherwise, I will definitely teach him a lesson and let him know how powerful his father is!"
Therefore, when everyone came to the competition center the next day and drew lots, they happened to draw the opponent's team. Even Shan Gu was dumbfounded.
"No. Who can tell me what is going on? Is this just a coincidence? "
Liu Zhiyuan, who was in charge of drawing lots, frowned and mumbled. "Why do I feel this is not a coincidence?"
Ji Chae Yi's eyes widened. "How can this be? How can you cheat in the system's drawing lots? "
"Haha, this is new. It's easy to cheat in the system's drawing lots. Don't tell me you all have some conflict with this team? This is an effective trick of the organizers. They like to use this method to increase the viewership of the competition, "someone said with a chuckle.
The few of them turned and saw two familiar faces.
Dong Li and Brother Niao!
The one who had just spoken is Brother Niao.
Even if they are not familiar with each other, they will feel closer than usual when they meet in a foreign place.
Not to mention, they are very familiar with these two hosts.
"Brother Dong, Brother Niao, why are you all here?" The rest of the group walked over and greeted the two hosts.
"Haha, thanks to you all! We came here this time to commentate on the battles that you all participated in, so you have to work hard! Strive to be like Wan Xiong and the others, advancing all the way to the finals! In that case, we can go to Guqin with you! "
The finals of the Fairies League were held in Guqin City.
"Haha, that's easy!" Liu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, then looked at Brother Niao and asked, "Just now you said … the system can cheat?"
"This … it's not really cheating, right? It's almost a recognized tacit distribution method, just to make the competition more interesting. Did you have some friction with the other team? "Brother Niao looked at Liu Zhiyuan and asked.
"Yesterday …" Liu briefly explained the small friction with the other party yesterday.
"Haha, that's it. It must be like this." Brother Niao laughed.
Shan Gu smiled and said, "You don't say, it's quite interesting this way!"
Then everyone said goodbye to Brother Niao and Dong Li. After the drawing of lots, they needed to go back and prepare. Liu also needed to collect and sort out information about the opponent.
Early the next morning, Liu directly summoned everyone. A group of people gathered in a room, which was somewhat crowded.
Ji Chae Yi frowned and said, "I'll get another room …"
Shirō Makino said, "I'll get one."
Shan Gu squinted at Shirō Makino and raised his eyebrows, "Tell me, why did you secretly get a room?"
"To store the virtual cabin," Shirō Makino said.
"What the … Are you serious? You actually carry the virtual cabin with you? "Shan Gu looked at Shirō Makino with a puzzled look.
The others also looked at Shirō Makino with a strange look in their eyes.
"I've seen people who recognize beds, but I've never seen someone who recognizes a cabin," Ji Chae Yi said.
Shirō Makino said with a smile, "That virtual cabin is a little special."
This time, no one said anything.
They all knew what happened in the Black Realm.
They also knew that the virtual cabin in the Black Realm was different from the normal ones.
But none of them had seen it before, so they didn't think about it.
After coming to the suite that Shirō Makino booked, Shan Gu asked Shirō Makino to take out the virtual cabin for everyone to see.
After seeing it, Shan Gu was greatly disappointed.
"What … That's all you got? There's even a exposed wire. Oh my, it's so rough! I thought it would be something more high-end … "Shan Gu continued to criticize.
Ji Chae Yi glared at Shan Gu. "It doesn't matter what the virtual cabin looks like. What matters is where we can go through it!"
Si Yin suddenly said, "Chae Yi, Brother Shan Gu is trying to cover up the awkwardness of not being able to get in, isn't he?"
'Damn it!
'Si Xiaoyin, I never rub your hair!'
Shan Gu looked at Si Yin sadly.
Ji Chae Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter.
After laughing for a while, Shirō Makino put away the virtual cabin, and the five of them sat on the sofa in the living room in a circle.
Liu Zhiyuan said, "This team isn't hard to beat!"
"Hehehe." Shan Gu couldn't help but laugh.
Liu Zhiyuan looked at him and poured a bucket of cold water on him. "But the person who wants to fight you is no weaker than you. If it's a one-on-one, you might not be able to beat him easily!"
"What?" Shan Gu was in disbelief.
Liu Zhiyuan said, "He's also an archer! And a Level Eight Spiritual Warrior! "
Damn!
Level Eight?
His first opponent was such a strong one?
The Planetary League and the Intercity League were two different concepts.
Although the Flying Immortals League looked exciting, the reality was cruel.
There were so many teams that came from afar, but half of them would be eliminated after one match!
Some of the stronger teams would be eliminated after one round if they were unlucky enough to meet a stronger opponent. No matter how unwilling they were, they could only accept their fate.
It was said that this was the case for a few Year Three teams in this league.
They were all hot favorites in the previous league, but they met stronger opponents as soon as they came up. Some were eliminated after one round, and some lasted until the second round and were eliminated.
So, this thing sometimes depended on fate, and sometimes … there was room for under-the-table manipulation.
For example, Xiao Bai's team's opponent this time.
The opponent came from a Level Two City called Shanshui, which was not too far from Li Ming City and Hundred Flowers City.
There were six people in the team, four guys and two girls. One was Che Runze, the archer who wanted to fight with Shan Gu. That guy … was actually the team leader!
The other three guys were Yu Zixing, a Level Six Assassin, Wan Yizhou, a Level Six Swordsman, and Wu Hongyu, a Level Seven Shield Warrior.
The two girls were Kang Jingjing, a Level Six Assassin, and Shui Yaning, a Level Eight Shield Warrior!
There was no Talisman Artist, and the six of them were all Spiritual Warriors.
But there were two Level Eight Spiritual Warriors!
Such a team was actually very strong.
"I've analyzed their starting lineup. It should be the captain, the archer Che Runze, the shield warrior Shui Yaning, Kang Jingjing, or Yu Zixing. One of these two assassins should appear, and the swordsman Wan Yizhou should also appear."
Liu Zhiyuan looked at them and said, "According to the opponent's previous game videos, it should be like this. Their Shield Warrior, Shui Yaning, is very strong. She looks tall and thin, but she is actually very strong. Not only is she good at defense, but her swordsmanship is also very good. The Swordsman, Wan Yizhou, is only Level Six, but his swordsmanship is very good! Here is a video of their game. Take a look first. "
As Liu Zhiyuan spoke, he first pulled up a video of the game.
In the video, a team was also fighting on complicated terrain, and they cooperated very well with each other.
Whether it was the Archer, Che Runzhe, or the Shield Warrior, Shui Yaning, they were all very strong.
After watching it, Ji Chae Yi said, "If Xiao Bai wasn't here, we might not be able to win against such a team. It's not easy."
"This is just the beginning."
Liu Zhiyuan looked at them and said with a serious face, "Now, I will assign the tactics for when they go on stage. Try not to show too much of Xiao Bai's ability at once …"
