Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1340: Chapter 1130: What Exactly Does the Old Dog Want?

”However...” The Apocalyptic Boss curiously looked at his Chief Steward, ”Will Wenjian accept the people we sent over?”

He certainly knew about the little discord between ’Lu Huayu’ and ’Young Master’ that couldn’t even be called a grudge... To be honest, if the Young Master had called him to object when he first hired ’Lu Huayu’, he wouldn’t have used him no matter how useful he was.

These young masters indeed live a carefree life, but those who live well understand that the prerequisite for such freedom is not to cause trouble for the family... even small matters must be attended to.

Of course, that was only if ’Lu Huayu’ could only assist him in life and entertainment, but if it involved business, it was different. For the sake of profit, no one would feel there is a problem to get into a fight.

Luckily, the ’Young Master’ really was a decent person and never thought about bringing in-game matters into reality... The boss felt a bit fortunate thinking about it, a useful personal assistant like ’Lu Huayu’ is really hard to find!

It’s just, he was a bit too calm, not willing to earn just any money.

Although this guy was meticulous in serving him in the game, the boss had tried to see if he could get the same treatment in reality, only to receive a polite yet firm refusal from this guy.

Thinking of this, the boss looked regretfully at his Chief Steward... Virtual stewards seem attentive, but really, they cannot provide that feeling of warmth like a spring breeze!

”So, I can only let the girls from the family sail the ship,” ’Lu Huayu’ said without changing his expression, ”Even if the families belong to indifferent associations, they are all fanatical believers of Hill’s Strange Objects Shop, and they can still get in touch with the girls on Wenjian’s side.

As long as we’re not on that ship, one of those large Magic Ships on the Sea of Radiance will come to welcome the poor Toril girls.

No matter how much they dislike me, the girls still have some sympathy.”

Then he looked up at his boss who had spent a fortune, played a game of ’buying the case and returning the pearl’, and bought back all the ’shelves’ he fancied: ”As long as you’re here, no one will chase after them.

The Toril people never understand how big the Undead Tribe’s space packages are... After all, here, a piece of space equipment large enough to fit half a football field could bankrupt a country.

Those mages seem carefree because they use Dimensional Space... But now, most people’s Dimensional Spaces can’t be opened.

The price of space equipment has nearly tripled in recent years!

In their mind, the things you brought back... even metal ores, could never fit into such precious space packages, they must be in the cargo hold.

But after this time, they will understand that the Undead Tribe never has cargo holds, only places for people.”

”Don’t they often deal with Wenjian’s side?” The Apocalyptic Boss asked with interest, ”How can they not know even such a small thing?

The Crown Prince of Yinbutu has already gotten used to asking any passing Undead Tribe when he needs anything... He knows that anything might be pulled out of our bags.”

”The Border Kingdom, not even a few Yellow Names, all are red,” ’Lu Huayu’ said calmly, ”Wenjian’s group has been so crazy these years, they’ve chased the priest who delivered warmth for the Sun God all the way to the Steam Lake.”

”They... do they... run around with Faction Detection on?” The Apocalyptic Boss was taken aback, ”Isn’t Kalinsan Shaer’s stronghold?”

”They don’t go to Karin Harbor,” ’Lu Huayu’ sighed, ”Aside from there, only in Manshaka are there still Followers of the Night... they are monitoring the movements of Amanata.

Shaer’s believers aren’t actually many, they seem lively, but most are... killers and thieves who eat with the Night Cloak.

There’s no food in Kalinsan, of course, they’ve left long ago.

Unless following the Divine Beasts in the Karin Desert to the high-risk zones inside the desert, maybe they could rob passing caravans, otherwise, which noble merchants would hire them for assassinations?

The Ancient Night Temple is now always building its Underworld, ready to wage war against Amanata’s believers, and not interested in ground affairs.

Unless... Kalinsan becomes a unified country again, they might appear.”

”Sounds exciting~” The boss’s eyes suddenly lit up again, ”Dangerous yet beautiful darkness-type beauties~ do you think...”

’Lu Huayu’ only saw blackness before his eyes: ”Boss, you must have forgotten, the reason we hid in this ghost place is because those Ninth Ring Mages chased us here... they are not something pirates can afford to hire.

And it is just a few Female Mages who barely have a connection with Mystra, making it such a big deal!

Switch to the group of women from the Ancient Night Temple... Boss, I really will resign, absolutely resign!”

The Apocalyptic Boss blinked: In recent years, he hadn’t been soft on giving ’Lu Huayu’ trouble, but this guy would mostly endure it with some grumbling, even if he couldn’t do it, he would refuse very skillfully... but threatening to resign, this was the first time.

Apparently, the Ancient Night Temple is really untouchable.

”I know~” he said lazily, ”Then let’s head back to Yinbutu earlier!”

Though temporarily convincing his unreliable boss, ’Lu Huayu’ remained extremely alert, he nodded and quickly dashed out the door to first arrange for those beautiful ’shelves’ to be sent away.

Even though their Magic Ship came with an invisible barrier, ’Lu Huayu’ didn’t believe they could hide for long under the layered search of several flying Ninth Ring Mages.

If it hadn’t been for him sending people early on to find many places where visual concealment could be utilized, they would have already been caught!

’Lu Huayu’ kept urging the female members of the family to quickly take the group of Toril girls aboard another fast boat... To him, these girls were the most troublesome.

He already had a reputation for not valuing NPC lives, and if these girls were to die under his charge... Even if he tried his best to protect them, who would care about his efforts?

If anyone died, it would inevitably be his fault.

’Lu Huayu’ had no doubt that this matter couldn’t be kept under wraps; in a mercenary group like the Last-Era Clan, there’s no word like ’unity’.

Countless people wanted to kick him out and take his place!

While the boss still valued him, ’Lu Huayu’ would never give these guys any opportunity to exploit.

He ordered the captain of the small boat to head north as soon as he saw his signal... Wenjian’s girls promised to come and assist as soon as they knew there were many underage girls needing rescue.

Then, as he commanded his own large vessel to rush out and draw attention, ’Lu Huayu’ smirked slightly. Snow Old Dog probably never expected him to bow down to Wenjian, did he?

After all, his character of being insidious, deceitful, but with a strong sense of self-respect was well-known.

As for self-respect, he couldn’t say he never had it before, even if it was possibly fueled by inferiority... ’Lu Huayu’ gazed coldly at the few archmages flashing through the sky... Splitting with a terrifying woman like ’Two Lines of Bamboo’ once rendered all his self-respect or inferiority into ashes.

”Prepare the Magic Cannon!” he shouted fiercely, ”Let them see what a real Dragon Slaying Cannon is!”

The gnomes of Agleya City, despite having numerous flaws, in any crisis with the Undead Tribe, you could always settle accounts with them later... and they were somewhat lenient in their actions.

Just like their boss’s armor, no matter what, it wouldn’t tear easily.

But for the Toril people, it was a matter of luck to buy genuine gnome goods... These little fellows would rather focus on ensuring the first few uses than considering if the goods were authentic.

Especially Harua, who always looked down on non-humans, ’Lu Huayu’ was certain these archmages had never witnessed the true power of the ’Dragon Slaying Cannon’: not a single one of them dodged!

Standing in mid-air with a Magic Shield for long-range protection and daring to sneer?

Who knows where they got their courage!

The fierce cannon fire roared from the Last-Era Clan’s ship... Accompanied by a scream, an everlasting feud was finally formed between Harua and the Undead Tribe.

However, they would eventually clash over the cloud maiden hovering above Anmur, so there was no need to consider relationship issues.

Simultaneously, two fireworks were released in the sky.

’Perfect Bald’ glanced at the burning signal and ordered loudly: ”Hard Wind, take the groups you lead directly to the tallest tower.

Remember! The primary mission is to attract all attention, and make it spectacular.

Rainfall, take the Mage Corps to the seven-story tower by the lake, Little Deer, your Priest Corps will follow.

Remember! Your mission is to take everything, even waste paper from the trash cans!

Then, A Baba... Damn it, along with An Baba, you two lead your people and activate the Alignment Detection, starting from the outer city.

Anyone with a red name, kill them on sight, regardless of what they’re doing!”

”What about allies?”

”Doesn’t matter!

If there are any Followers of the Night left here, they’re among the ones Shaer left for us to kill... Get used to it, the Evil Forces are always filled with traitors.”

’Perfect Bald’ watched the two ’Dads’ leading their charge... Eighty percent of the inexplicable fights within Black Rose originated from these two competitive individuals.

Though ’An Idler’ and ’Magic Sword’ often got scolded, they were simply a little foolish, not particularly wicked.

But these two were different, they’d cause trouble without reason, and with reason, they’d fight heaven and earth until everything was turned upside down.

Though most of the time Black Rose could withstand them... But there were instances they had to retreat in disgrace.

Therefore, during battles, he’d usually have these two follow the orders behind ’Sui Chen’... It’s something they could do, though they grumbled, their work was never wrong.

But why did Old Dog insist he assign these two to search the whole city?

The Toril people’s tolerance can’t compare to the Undead Tribe!
