Chapter 463 - Equal Treatment

Chapter 463: Equal Treatment

“I don’t need one person from you.”

At this point, Lei Luo shook his head again.

“Oh, no, to be precise, we only need one person from you.”

“One person?”

Kronin thought for a moment and pointed at himself.

“Do you mean…me?”

“That’s right.” Lei Luo smiled. “Three million sounds like a big number, but in the entire third province, it’s as small as a speck of dust.”

Kronin asked in disbelief, “Don’t tell me that you’re going to kidnap magic conductors?”

“Wouldn’t it be more touching to use a different term, like liberation?” Lei Luo asked.

At this time, Kronin finally understood what Lei Luo meant.

“You want me to follow the army and convince those magic conductors that you kidnapped to join your army?”

“Yes, I believe that a wise man like you is very good at thinking.”

“More importantly, you are a magic conductor yourself, so your words are more convincing.”

“My plan is to capture 60 to 80 million magic conductors within a month, and then choose about three million of them as soldiers. As for the rest, we will send them back to where they came from. We will never harm a single magic conductor. All magic conductors who become soldiers will enjoy the same salary, promotion, and pension rights as the other soldiers of our Black Angel Army.”

“Treat magic conductors and natives alike? Sir Lei Luo, is what you said just a temporary measure, or will this policy be implemented forever?”

Kronin’s expression was extremely serious. It was as if he was an envoy of war between the two countries.

“It can be considered a temporary measure. Because in the beginning, for the sake of safety, I will appoint any magic conductor military officer. All magic conductors are treated equally and do not report to each other. In addition, considering the soldiers’ acceptance, the native and the magic conductor groups could not work together in the beginning and have to be separated. However, after I successfully obtain the base, I will try to unite the native and the magic conductor groups under the same command system. At the same time, the magic conductor will also produce their own officers…”

Before Lei Luo could finish, Kronin couldn’t help but interrupt him.

“Let the magic conductor and the native be completely equal… Hmm.. Sir Lei Luo, I want to ask you one last question. Is this your true faith in your heart?”

Lei Luo silently raised his head and looked at Kronin for a while, then said indifferently, “Whether it’s your true faith or not, this is not important. I will always do as I said just now. The reason is very simple— because I have already realized that if you want to dominate the empire, this is the path you must take.”

Kronin nodded, frowned, and stood up, pacing around the room.

After a while, Kronin asked, “Didn’t you say that you only have a small fleet now? How did you expand it to ten main forces in such a short time? Even if your method can solve the problem of your troop source, where did you get so many warships? As far as I know, all your money was exchanged for the fleet and fell into the hands of Karman.”

“You don’t have to worry about this, old man. I will think of a way to solve it,” Lei Luo replied.

Kronin walked to Lei Luo’s side and looked at him. He said in an unquestionable tone, “Tell me your plan.”

Lei Luo’s brows raised. “This…isn’t convenient, right?”

“No, you have to tell me. You have to.”

Kronin’s insistence surprised Lei Luo. However, after thinking for a while, he felt that telling Kronin would do more good than harm.

Therefore, Lei Luo told Kronin about his fundraising plan with some reservations.

“Our plan is to get the funds we need from Trump…”

Five minutes later, Lei Luo asked Kronin, “Old sir, are you satisfied?”

Kronin did not answer him. He just walked back to his seat.

After thinking for a long time with his head lowered in silence, he raised his head again and said to Lei Luo, “First of all, the first thing I want to say to you is that I am willing to cooperate with you.”

This answer was within Lei Luo’s expectations, so he didn’t seem too excited. He just smiled and nodded.

“Thank you.”

Then, Lei Luo looked at Kronin with a smile, waiting for him to say the rest of his words.

His intuition told Lei Luo that Kronin’s next words would be more important.

“Sir Lei Luo, if you really have the determination to carry out the policy you just said, I can promise you that you will receive a return that is beyond your imagination.”

Lei Luo laughed.

“Old Sir, your words sound like the temptation of a mystic…However, as far as my personal interests are concerned, I am more willing to be tempted by some more realistic temptations.”

Kronin looked at Lei Luo and asked. “I wonder if the legendary War God’s weapon is considered a more realistic temptation?”

“War God’s weapon?”

Lei Luo smiled at Kronin.

“Could it be that the old sir actually knows the secret of the legendary god-made weapon?”

“No, I don’t.”

Kronin shook his head.

“However, the cross in Sir Lei Luo’s arms knows.”

“The old sir seems to know a lot about my affairs?”

Lei Luo, who had been smiling the entire time, slowly retracted his smile.

His gaze towards Kronin was slightly cold.

“Meryl, Brahma, and Solomon. In the past, these three people had never done anything spectacular. However, Emperor Victor had once set up a department called the Blood Guard to monitor these three people. The reason was simple. He believed that in this world, only these three people could shake his ruling position.”

Kronin and Lei Luo looked at each other.

“However, the one who ultimately killed Emperor Victor was his most important assistant, Godrian.”

“It was indeed Godrian who did it, but doesn’t Sir Lei Luo find it strange? Godrian, who had made great contributions to the First Empire and had a position above billions of people, had actually assassinated Emperor Victor. If it was to usurp the throne, then his preparations were a little too hasty. As the commander of the capital’s garrison, he managed all the garrison troops in the empire’s capital, but he actually didn’t even defeat the other dukes who only brought their personal guards. The most incredible thing was that he didn’t even bring the War God’s weapon with him.”
