Chapter 435: New League

For the past twenty-four hours, Lei Luo had been standing there silently, staring at the night sky that had always been silent.

No one knew what he had found in the boundless darkness, but after twenty-four hours, he had clearly walked out of the impetuous mood of the past.

Twenty-four hours later, Lei Luo slowly let out a long breath, raised his head, and closed his eyes.

He imagined himself in an uninhabited wilderness. The humidity of the night permeated the air, creating a sentimental atmosphere.

The starry sky was exceptionally clear as if it had been washed by clear water. The distant stars shone faintly, like tiny tears flowing slowly.

“You’ve been standing here for a day. What are you thinking about?”

Allie’s timid voice came from behind. She couldn’t help but feel conflicted, but she was afraid of disturbing Lei Luo.

Lei Luo turned around, looked at Allie and said, “I’ve thought it through. Life is just a matter of life and death. What’s there to be afraid of?”

At this moment, Allie noticed that Lei Luo’s face was a little red. It was an extraordinary red. It was so red that it was scary.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look so weird?” Allie asked as she held onto Lei Luo’s shoulder suspiciously.

It would be better if she did not touch him. With this touch, Allie realized that Lei Luo’s body had been trembling at an extremely high frequency.

The frequency of this trembling was so high that when Allie touched his body, even her palms would feel slightly numb.

“Oh my god, what are you…”

Before Allie could finish her sentence, Lei Luo reached out and gently blocked her hand. He continued to speak.

“I’m actually a person with low self-esteem. I was abandoned by my parents when I was just born. It was my teacher who picked me up and brought me home. My teacher and my teacher’s teacher had always cared about me, but this could not dispel the low self-esteem in my heart. I can never forget that I am a monster, that even my own parents hate me. I never believed that anyone in the world would love me. All along, my dream has always been to find a place of my own and take good care of myself. I don’t want to hurt anyone, but if I have to hurt someone to get this place, then I don’t mind doing it. I was so determined to get this place that I forgot why I wanted it so much in the first place. In the first few hours of the past 24 hours, I had been unable to extricate myself from a strong sense of defeat. But now, there is only peace in my heart.”

Lei Luo looked at Allie and smiled weakly. At this moment, his face had turned from red to pale.

“That day, Kronin asked me, ‘Is there anything in Lord Lei Luo’s life that must be protected?’ I couldn’t answer him at that time, but now, I think I already have the answer in my heart.”

Lei Luo spoke until his body staggered. If it wasn’t for Allie who quickly reached out to hold him, he might have fallen to the ground.

“Lei Luo, what’s wrong with you?”

Allie hugged Lei Luo tightly, her voice almost crying.

“Don’t be afraid.” Lei Luo gently waved his hand.

“To reach your best condition, you need to expend some energy. By this time tomorrow, my body should be able to provide us with a crucial minute.”

“A minute?” Allie blinked her eyes.

Lei Luo wanted to laugh, but he actually did not have the strength to command the muscles on his face. He could only twitch the corner of his mouth slightly.

“Even if you can become a top warrior, and this is indeed beyond their expectations, but there are hundreds of thousands of heavy armor warriors in the Holy City of Beauty, and there are only two of us. What can we do?” Allie asked.

Lei Luo shook his head and said, “No, there aren’t only two of us.”

“You mean…there are still our own people in the city? Who is it? Morton has been locked up. Could it be…Arthur?”

Lei Luo nodded.

“When did Arthur contact you? Why didn’t I know?”

“All communications on the Holy City of Beauty have been completely blocked. Now, no one can contact anyone from the inside.”

“Since he hasn’t contacted you, then why do you say that he is one of our own? In the latest citizen announcement, he is listed.”

“Arthur couldn’t have betrayed us. Morton must have made him endure and be our mole.”

“Are you so sure?”

“If there’s only one thing I’m sure of in this world, then it must be this one.”

Seeing that Lei Luo was so sure, Allie had nothing more to say.

After a while, Allie asked again, “Since Arthur has no connection with you, if we act rashly, what chance do we have of winning?”

“I didn’t calculate it because there’s no point in doing so. What’s the point of doing what we’re destined to do?” Lei Luo said this with a calm expression.

“Why don’t we let Saxton get rid of him? That way, there won’t be any trouble.”

“Saxton isn’t a small lord. He’s the leader of an alliance. Although he’s afraid of us and doesn’t dare to completely disobey us, we can’t expect them to do everything we want them to do.”

“At the very least, which route is Lei Luo on?”

“Don’t you understand by now? Saxton does not want Lei Luo to die so quickly.

In his opinion, it is best that he can continue to live and tear apart our plans in the third province.”

“It is just a mere union of the British Immortal Economic Union. It is too far-fetched that they cannot suppress it.”

“It’s not inevitable for you to be able to reach your current position. It’s just a matter of luck, so you’re not indispensable.

As for this point, Lord Karman, I hope you’ll always remember it in your heart.”

The above conversation took place between Karman, who was standing on the communication crystal, and Strachey, who was standing on the crystal.

When he heard Strachey’s merciless rebuke, Karman’s instinctive stubbornness caused a strong sense of disgust to surge in his heart.

However, after being frustrated for so many years, his wild desire to soar to the sky from then on still completely suppressed this disgust.

“Yes.”

Karman lowered his head and answered respectfully.

“Let me tell you a piece of good news. We have already contacted twelve independent suzerains. They have already verbally promised to join the new alliance that you have established in the third province.

“Three of them are former east god suzerains. As long as you obtain the Cape of Good Hope, they’ll formally surrender.”

Strachey understood Karman’s personality deeply. He was more certain than anyone else that he would get rid of this fellow sooner or later, but it was definitely not now.
