Chapter 390 - Pirate Soldiers

Translator: Simple MTL  Editor: Simple MTL

Morton kept looking at Lei Luo as he said this.

Lei Luo turned his head slightly. He was also silent and wore a smile on his face.

​ 

“Since you want to hide it from yourself, as someone who wants to work with you for a long time, I don’t think I have to disobey you.”

Morton took a puff of his cigarette, shrugged his shoulders, and revealed a smile.

Although Lei Luo was smiling, the atmosphere was more or less stagnant.

He wanted to change the atmosphere.

“Morton, I want to ask you a question. I want you to answer truthfully.”

Lei Luo’s expression suddenly became serious.

“Do you think I treat you as a friend? To be honest, I’m not sure, but I treat you as a friend.”

“That’s right, you do have the habit of hiding yourself, and sometimes even to the extent of performing. But, you also have a warm power in your body. This warmth makes me involuntarily believe that you won’t hurt your friend.”

Lei Luo smiled happily. “I feel that there are some things that I need to let you know…”

“What is it?”

“It’s about the world falling into chaos and the magister…”

Ten minutes later, Morton was so anxious that he jumped up.

“You clearly know that our time is so tight, yet you still dragged me here to waste so much time. It’s really hateful…”

Morton roared loudly as he dragged Lei Luo, who was only wearing a towel, out of the carriage.

“Let me explain. I did it because I knew it was going to be the last free moment of my life…Oh my god, I dropped my towel…”

After almost five months, both Lei Luo and Morton are back on each other’s bad side.

However, they didn’t really have a lot of time to argue and fight. They soon arrived in the village entrance that has clearly long been dilapidated.

They found that, far from being repaired, the village was even more dilapidated than when they had left it.

As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, Lei Luo looked about him and said, “It was ransacked by thieves.”

“How do you know?”

Morton was smart, but his specialty was business, not war.

“Any territory should be precious. But Allie’s brother would rather leave it abandoned, because it is one of the most famous bandit areas in the empire, and he would rather leave it abandoned than send men to guard it.”

When Lei Luo said this, he stretched out his hand and looked at the sky.

“You are a businessman. Your business has never expanded to this area, so you are not very familiar with this area. You must know that in this area that is only a few hundred miles away, because it is close to the sea, there are actually tens of thousands of bandit groups living here. More than a hundred years ago, this area was called ‘Wings of Satan.’ It was known as one of the empire’s three great pirate bases.”

“Since you already knew how dangerous this area was, why did you agree to let Allie come here?”

“You should have thought of this answer. Great merchant, there is no better soldier in the world than a pirate…”

“Within the empire, all the suzerains placed their attention on the commanders. However, I dare tell you that with the magic conductor’s rebellion, everyone will slightly change this habit. Apart from outstanding commanders, we also need well-trained soldiers.”

“You actually want to recruit pirates? Please, what kind of people are those? I know too well that they cannot become outstanding soldiers.”

“Recruit? What kind of joke is that? How can I trust a paid pirate?”

Seeing Lei Luo leisurely strolling forward as he spoke, Morton began to understand a little. “You knew that the pirates would attack here?”

“Yes, but their efficiency is a little lower than I imagined.”

“These pirates…were arranged by you?”

Although he didn’t really believe that his deduction was true, Morton found such ideas easy to believe if Lei Luo was involved.

Lei Luo was a strange man to him. Who knew what he would do next?

“To a certain extent, you can say yes, but in reality, it’s not.”

When Lei Luo said this, he probably felt that he was being a little mystifying.

Therefore, he smiled and let out a sigh of relief before beginning to explain.

“Even with the status of the Dark Dragon Alliance, they would still want to capture Allie to win the favor of Ulysses.”

“Then, how could these greedy pirates let her go? In their eyes, Allie is equivalent to a large amount of treasure.”

“However, what slightly surprised me was that the pirate gang’s intelligence was so slow that they only captured Allie after she arrived here for more than four months, causing me to waste so much time in the fallen capital.”

Only then did Morton realize that this was exactly why Lei Luo stayed in the fallen capital for so long.

“What do you think the pirates will get if they offer Allie to Ulysses?”

“It doesn’t have any benefits for me, so the pirates won’t offer Allie to Ulysses.”

“Because, after they made their move, someone immediately notified Ulysses’ brothers who were hostile toward him that their brothers were colluding with the pirates.”

“Their goal was to obtain Allie and then subdue the remaining power of the East God so that they could take over the throne.”

“Ulysses is very smart, but not all of his brothers are stupid. They will think of some ways to make Ulysses completely ignore the pirates who wrote to him.”

Morton was not a fool. If he were a fool, Lei Luo would not have told him so much.

The reason why he had been confused earlier was because he wasn’t familiar with the situation of the pirates in this area.

He hadn’t expected this situation at all.

But now, after hearing so much, when the two of them got back into the carriage, he began to make some judgments about the situation.

“From the beginning, Allie was treated as a bargaining chip by you, right?”

“You can’t say that. I made the decision to let the pirates take Allie when I decided to carry out the plan of extorting the mercenary guild.”

Lei Luo placed his hand on the edge of the shabby carriage seat and turned his face to look at Morton.

“You don’t have to look at me like that. When I said that you treated Allie as a bargaining chip, I didn’t mean it in a derogatory way. When Allie brought us in, we were only a bargaining chip to her. Besides, even if we didn’t come, Allie would still have been captured by the pirates. So, I don’t think you have any moral responsibility.”
