Chapter 399: Coercing Heimang City

The port of Wubei Territory is under construction in full swing; today, four ships appeared one after another on the calm sea surface, slowly sailing toward the pier.

Lisi, who is responsible for the defense of this area, became vigilant, because according to the previous agreement, there were only two ships coming from Jiliu Island, but now there are four.

He arrived at the pier, took out the telescope that Luoning had given him, and tried to adjust the eyepiece to observe.

Every time he used this thing, he felt it was incredible, and at the same time, he felt admiration for Luoning; he did not understand what kind of brain could come up with such an heaven-defying thing.

However, the scene he saw next gave him a fright.

"Ghost-head flag, Ghost Tide Pirate Group!"

Lisi was shocked and immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, alert!"

This sudden shout made the atmosphere of the construction site very tense; although some timid people ran to the back, the soldiers who had been training recently all stood out with their weapons.

"Lisi, what is going on?"

Hamete, who had delivered a new batch of laborers to Wubei Port, also walked over to ask about the situation.

"There are ships of the Ghost Tide Pirate Group over there!"

Hamete was shocked and hurriedly drew his long sword, "Do the pirates dare to attack a noble territory?"

They thought of many possibilities; could it be that someone did not want Wubei Port to be built successfully.

However, a figure flew out quickly from the ship and landed on the pier.

"Count Luoning!"

Seeing that the person who arrived was Luoning, the tense hearts of the crowd finally relaxed, and the workers who were preparing to hide far away to take refuge were also called back to continue working.

"My Lord, why are those two ships flying the flag of the Ghost Tide Pirate Group?" Lisi asked in confusion.

Luoning briefly recounted the encounter at sea and finally said: "I am prepared to have you lead a team with Lusen to the base of the Ghost Tide Pirate Group to wipe them out."

Lisi was stunned, and then a look of joy appeared on his face; fighting was something he liked.

"Everything will be according to your arrangements!"

Soon, the four ships sailed to the near shore.

Under the command of Eimeng, they docked one after another, but due to the length of the pier only allowing two ships to dock at the same time, the process was a bit slow.

"By the way, My Lord, there is something I need to report to you."

"Speak."

Lisi said: "Tangmu came here two days ago and said that Wushan Castle had sent a letter to you, asking you to go to Wushan Town when you returned."

Only then did Luoning's attention shift away from the docking of the ships.

Ever since the incident last time, Luoning allowed Aierlong to check some letters sent to the territory when he was not there.

"It is to go to Wushan Town, not Wushan Castle?"

"Yes, I also subconsciously thought Tangmu was wrong at the time, but the other party confirmed that the letter asked you to go to Wushan Town."

Lisi replied: "In addition, Aierlong also asked Tangmu to convey that please return to Zhaozebao to bring a Powerful Healing Spell Scroll before going to Wushan Town; it is said that Lord Milosilafu was injured."

Luoning understood; it was likely that Lulansi was already in Wushan Town, which was why the other party asked him to go to Wushan Town as well.

"It seems that the old dean should have really been attacked."

Not long ago, Luoning learned from Lulansi that the old dean might have been attacked by Heimang City.

At that time, suffering from a lack of direct evidence, Lulansi could only take the opportunity to put pressure on Heimang City.

Now that Milosilafu has returned with injuries, this confirms from the side that Lulansi's guess is very likely to be correct.

If Aosen and the others really openly took action against Milosilafu, now that the victim is here, the Haide Family cannot escape the blame.

One must know that the status of the old dean is not something that Luoning, who was arranged to be a Baron in Shanlin Town at the beginning, can compare to; the other party's status, strength, background, and the energy they can mobilize are all much stronger than Luoning at that time.

Therefore, for the same assassination, the way of handling it is different.

And the most critical thing is that Lulansi has recovered from his injuries, and he wants to move against the Haide Family.

In this situation, if Aosen and the others do not make the choice of sacrificing the pawn to save the knight, and even openly resist, then the Haide Family's Count title will likely be revoked.

"My Lord, it has not been very peaceful outside recently; is Wushan Territory going to have a war again?" Lisi asked.

"Perhaps."

Luoning did not give a definite answer; after all, it is still unclear whether they will fight in the end.

"The matters here are left to you; leave the timber on the ships to Eimeng, and let those workers who have the ability to build ships start working."

The dragon roar of Kaierluosi shook the sky; Luoning flew up and rushed toward Zhaozebao.

Lisi looked at the black dot gradually disappearing in the sky, and suddenly felt a sense of longing: "It is good to have a flying mount!"

He came back to his senses; regardless of whether a war will break out in Wushan Territory, Luoning has already made arrangements, and his battlefield is at sea.

Wushan Town.

Today, this small town welcomed a special guest—the master of Wushan Territory, Lulansi.

To be honest, when the Thunder Marquis rode the Thunder Chasing Beast to Wushan Town, Meilongnika was extremely surprised.

When Wushan Extraordinary Academy was established, Lulansi did not come to witness it; now that Milosilafu is seriously injured, it has alarmed the Marquis?

Is it that the friendship between the two is very deep, or has the safety of Milosilafu affected the Marquis?

The answer is neither.

"My Lord, have you really recovered?"

The usually calm Meilongnika was a little excited; he seemed to see the once-famous Thunder Marquis returning again.

Lulansi nodded, "How is the Knight Order prepared?"

Meilongnika immediately reported: "Currently, the food and grass have been prepared, and the location for stationing has also been chosen at the border of the Count's territory; as long as you give an order, we can attack at any time."

Lulansi nodded slightly, "It is still early for the attack."

Although the Knight Orders of Meilongnika and Kabier are ready, the teams of Tolu and Sanduoluo have not yet arrived.

Most importantly, the Magicians of the Silva Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce have not yet arrived in Wushan Town.

"My lord, will we really end up at war with Heimang City?" Meilongnika asked.

A war breaking out between a liege lord and his vassal is a rare occurrence.

Lulansi narrowed his eyes, "That depends on the choices made by Aosen and Balindun."

"They have certainly caught wind of your and Kabier's movements, as well as the mobilization of the Wushan Territory Knight Order; they have had enough time to consider how to face this and make a choice before we take action. Yet, until now, they have not given a direct response."

He hummed with displeasure, "Do they really think that just because they recovered from their injuries and have two Meteor Knights, they are invincible? Heh, even if I and the people from the Magic Chamber of Commerce did not participate in this battle, Heimang City would still be no match for Wushan Castle!"

Luoning and his knights were Lulansi's greatest trump card.

"You have already been merciful enough to Aosen."

Meilongnika said, "I hope they do not squander the time you have given them."

"Let's not talk about them anymore."

Lulansi habitually leaned on his cane, "Let's go, take me to see Milosilafu and see how badly that old fellow is injured." (End of chapter)
