Sign In: Becoming A Great Spell Deity Starting From The Magic Academy

Chapter 418: Blue Ocean Guild

‘Now is the time to stun this arrogant fellow,’ Lei Luo thought to himself. He kept quiet and only pursed his lips into a smile, then lowered his head and softly repeated those three words from Karman. “Based on what?”

After Lei Luo repeated his words, he maintained his silence, a mysterious smile hanging on his face.

Finally, Karman couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Tell me, I really want to know what you can do this time.”

“If you want something, why do you have to snatch it? Can’t you let others give it to you?”

Lei Luo raised his head and looked at Karman with a smile.

“Give it to you? Are you saying that the broken city lord will give his city to you?” Karman couldn’t believe his ears.

“Of course, the Cape of Good Hope belongs to him alone. If he doesn’t give it to me, who else would?”

“But...why would he do that?”

Karman’s eyes were wide open and his face was filled with curiosity.

“Someone would force him to do that.” Lei Luo waved his hand. “That’s the end of the question. That’s all I can say. I can’t say anything more.”

Then, no matter how much Karman pestered him, Lei Luo only used one sentence to answer.

“I can only tell you one thing now. The Cape of Good Hope will definitely be in my hands. As for the rest, I won’t say another word.”

After a fruitless pestering, Karman sat helplessly on his seat. He habitually touched the whiskey bottle, but he was not in the mood to drink it.

So he put the whiskey bottle down again. “Why did you tell me so much?”

“Because you’re a good commander, and what I need most right now is a good commander.”

“But why did I hear that you like to use those commanders who debuted through irregular channels?”

“You’re very well-informed.”

“Not as well-informed as you, but it’s still all right. Since that’s the case, why did you use me?”

“Because I prefer to use people who are not accepted by the world.”

Karman took a deep breath and let out a long sigh.

“Even if I believe that you really have a way to get the Cape of Good Hope, I have deep doubts about you using this team to achieve your strategic goal.”

“Do you think that the others in the team aren’t worthy of you?” Lei Luo asked.

“This isn’t a problem of ability, but a problem of cohesion.

“If what we did together was really just a business guild, then I wouldn’t feel that there was any problem, and I would be happy to participate. However, if we were to do what you said, to be honest, I don’t have the confidence. If I fail, I won’t be losing money, I’ll be losing my life.”

“What you’re worried about is exactly what I’m worried about. That’s why I want to set up this Blue Ocean Guild. The reason I’m doing this is to determine everyone’s interests through this guild. Everyone on this membership list can receive the dividends they deserve according to the ratio on the list. In addition, unless more than 51% of the votes are in favor, they can never sell their voting rights,” Lei Luo said and shrugged.

“We do have many internal concerns, but the benefits of taking down the Cape of Good Hope are obvious. Anyone on the membership list can obtain much greater benefits than before by taking down the Cape of Good Hope. Therefore, for the sake of benefits, we will unite.”

“This is only a short-term unity.”

“A short-term unity is enough. As long as we obtain the Cape of Good Hope, we will have a long-term development base. At that time, we will have a lot of leeways, and we will also be able to bear the necessary losses of internal friction. At that time, if we are willing to work together for a long time, then we will continue to work together. “If we are not willing, then we will give him the benefits he deserves and let him leave.”

“Will things really go so smoothly?”

Karman leaned against the control panel and looked at Lei Luo.

“Based on my personal experience, plans that sound good often fail. All problems will be completely solved after we obtain the Cape of Good Hope.”

Lei Luo’s words were as firm as his gaze.

“I’m almost certain that you won’t succeed so smoothly...”

As Karman said this, he paused and looked up at the member table that was spinning in the air.

“But a failure is also a success, so...all right, I’ll sign it.”

As Karman spoke, he pointed his eyes and fingerprints at the corresponding authentication location on the contract card. Just as he was about to sign the contract, Karman suddenly asked, “Right, if someone breaks this contract in the end, what will happen to him?”

A peaceful smile appeared on Lei Luo’s face.

“I’m really looking forward to someone doing this, because on that day, someone will know what kind of nightmare it is to break my contract.”

Almost a month later, Lei Luo’s squadron finally returned to the Holy City of Beauty.

During this process, Lei Luo had been communicating with Morton.

They were trying to understand the current situation of the city. And almost every long-distance communication ended with Morton saying, “Please, come back quickly, I really can’t hold on any longer.”.

When Lei Luo’s fleet finally arrived, Morton rushed out of his office and personally went to the port to welcome them.

As for Zha Mu, Major Casa, and the others, they didn’t have the time. All of them brought patrol boats to patrol around the city in case of a large-scale riot.

Even Arthur took on the role of garrison commander temporarily. He brought 100,000 heavy armor warriors to guard the safety of the sacred city.

“Oh my god, you’re finally back.”

Upon seeing Lei Luo, Morton almost pounced on him.

Fortunately, Lei Luo was agile and dodged to the left. Otherwise, with Morton’s figure, Lei Luo would have fallen to the ground immediately.

“What’s wrong? Is there a need to be so excited?” Lei Luo asked with a smile.

“One month, at most one month. I can’t stay for another day. If we stay for another day, we’ll be plunged into the ocean of the People’s War.”

“What are you panicking about? Isn’t this all within expectations?”

Lei Luo smiled calmly.

“How can you laugh and smile about this? You can even think of such a thing as a ‘city decoration tax.’ Now that I’ve taken the blame for you, my reputation is ruined. Right now, I sleep with one eye open every night. Without the protection of a hundred and eighty heavy armor warriors, I don’t dare to go out on the streets at all. I might be shot in the dark wherever I go.”

“When the time is right, do something unusual...”

“Besides, it seems like I’m the one who came up with all the bad ideas. If it weren’t for your idea of letting the little banker participate in the tax collection, how would we have been able to earn so much money?”
